A BULAWAYO man was left trembling like an aspen after an enraged neighbour stormed his doorstep, banging on his door and accusing him of having bedroom chats with his wife over the phone!
Takesure Nomagwa is now walking on eggshells in his own neighborhood after a fuming Trevor Sibanda, confronted him in a fiery lovers’ tiff turned courtroom drama.
“I was chilling with my wife when her phone rang — it was him! I heard the whole conversation and it didn’t sound like they were talking about church hymns,” Trevor told the court, eyes blazing. “It was cozy, intimate talk. I knew right then something fishy was going on.”
Instead of throwing fists, Trevor said he wanted to have a “man-to-man” talk.
“I wasn’t there to fight — just to understand. But the man acted shady. He refused to talk. That made me even more suspicious,” Trevor said.
But Takesure sang a different tune.
“Your worship, that man is spinning lies! He came to my house, yelling like a mad man, threatening to beat me up for something I didn’t do. I’m now living in constant fear — I can’t even greet a woman without wondering if he’ll show up with a stone!”
The courtroom turned into a soapie as Takesure pleaded for a peace order, saying Trevor’s threats were turning his life into a nightmare.
Magistrate Shepherd Mnjanja had heard enough drama to fill a whole season of the inimitable soapie — Generations — and granted the peace order.
Trevor was ordered to keep his distance, zip his mouth, and drop the rocks. Any more “neighbourly love patrols” will land him in serious hot water!
