Memory Chiponda who was claiming US$200 maintenance.
“I have been disputing the paternity of this child since birth and she has three husbands. I want to go to a clinic to have paternity tests conducted because the child is not mine,” he said.

Ms Rusinahama ordered Nhau to pay US$100 as maintenance.
