it’s not good for him to introduce his wife at a public function or a funeral.
“A traditional ceremony to welcome her (Ms Macheka) to the family was held in Buhera over the weekend,” he said.
Mr Tamborinyoka declined to disclose when the PM paid lobola and how much he paid.
“I have confirmed what you wanted and that is enough,” he said.
Yesterday’s introduction put to rest speculation on who PM Tsvangirai’s wife was.

The PM has just returned from the United States where he had a family get together with his children, ostensibly to introduce Ms Macheka.
Mr Tsvangirai grabbed headlines last year when he allegedly married Ms Locadia Karimatsenga Tembo, whom he ‘‘divorced’’ within 12 days.
The PM had been linked to several women in different cities prior to that ephemeral “marriage”.
According to our New York sources, Mr Tsvangirai travelled with Elizabeth Mazvita Gama (according to her passport) and his children Edwin, Garikai, Vincent, Vimbai, Millicent and Rumbidzai.
Also in the delegation were his sons-in-law — Batsirai Gava and Kelvin Nyarota.
Daughters-in-law Lillian and Diana also joined the trip.
Officials from his office were Mr Lazarus Muriritirwa, Mr Dennis Mu-rira and Ms Rose Chimedza.
Sources said the PM wanted the family to gel with his wife-to-be amid ru-mours that his children had raised concern over his bed-hopping reports.
