Sex worker seizes coffin over unpaid US$5 bill

Arron Nyamayaro
A COMMERCIAL sex worker has seized an empty coffin from a hardware shop in Mbare, Harare as compensation for the US$5 which she claims was the cost of her fling with a dealer in the suburb.

It has emerged that the dealer, identified as King Joshua, lied to the commercial sex worker that he was a manager at Ozei Hardware shop.

King Joshua used the shop as his love nest when he hooked up with the unidentified woman, who is known for her seductive dances in night clubs and bars in the area.

He told her he was using the hardware shop because he was the manager.

Somehow, the so-called manager failed to pay the US$5, which the commercial sex worker had charged, for her services. The woman hit back by taking one of the coffins, worth US$60, from the hardware shop.

The drama drew the attention of scores of people. Security guards, who were on night duty, recorded a video of the woman carrying the coffin and posted it on social media. The hardware shop owner, only identified as Ozie, told H-Metro that King Joshua had turned his premises into a love nest.

“I was phoned by police at around 11pm asking who was at my hardware shop,” said Ozie.

“Joshua had been hooking up ladies of the night and bringing them into my hardware shop during the night and all this was being done behind my back.

“I want to believe one of the coffins I lost last year could have gone the same way. He had turned my workplace into his love nest.”
