Wife tells husband that he is useless in bed

A married man who cannot get it up for his wife, told magistrate Urgent Vundla at Western Commonage Court in Bulawayo that his estranged wife was verbally abusing him by saying his penis does not work. 

This was said in defence by Bhekani Gumede after his wife, Sethule Nkiwane, dragged him to court accusing him of physically, emotionally and verbally abusing her. 

Gumede dismissed his wife’s accusations that he was an abusive man and told the court that his wife wanted out of the marriage because she was having an affair with a doctor. The wife is a nurse. 

She is lying Your Worship. When she started to behave funny, I took her phone while she was sleeping and browsed through the messages on her phone and saw  illicit messages that she was exchanging with her lover  who is a doctor.”

He went on to say: “She even had the guts to tell me that I’m no longer of her class and I’m just a mere soldier. After all I’m the one who paid for her tertiary education when she was doing her nursing course.”

He did not slow down in exposing his wife’s shenanigans.

“I even consulted a prophet who told me that she ‘locked me’ and I believe it’s true because my manhood has become impotent. Shockingly during romance she pulls my item and mocks me saying akusebenzi lokhu (your manhood is useless).

Gumede sang like a bird in response after his wife told the court that she was fed up because he was failing to perform in the bedroom.

“I find no reason of having sex with him because his manhood is so weak that it fails to rise to action. When he tries it quickly ‘sleeps’. He usually makes sexual acts on top of me, when I tell him that there is nothing that he would be doing he would fume at me.”

She went a gear up saying: “Most of the times when he comes from his work station he accuses me of cheating on him. After that he would hit me with open arms and insult me accusing me of bewitching him. I have even told my mother-in-law that he is in the habit of beating me up and fails to have sex with me because his manhood is flaccid. I therefore seek a marriage dissolution because I’m afraid he would end up killing me.”

Magistrate Vundla ordered the couple to go for counselling.
