Woman camps at ex-hubbya��s home

Nhlalwenhle Ncube
Cana��t let go!

The above lyrics from musicians such as Adele and Mariah Carey best suit a Magwegwe woman who had a hard time letting go of her ex-husband and camped outside his house to prove her undying love.

Merjury Shumba refused to let her husband Lovemore Sibanda off the hook and decided to camp under a tree after learning that he had married his neighbour. Sibanda was left with no choice, but to seek an eviction order for his ex-wife.

In his affidavit, Sibanda said: a�?Merjury Shumba is my ex-wife and she decided to break our relationship without any reasons.

a�?I then married another woman and when she learnt that I was staying with my wife, she came and forced herself into my parenta��s house.

a�?She is refusing to leave and I want the law to assist me in this case.a�?

In her defence outline, Shumba stated that she was bitter that her husband dumped her for their married neighbour Gally Moyo.

a�?He threw my clothes out of the house and started staying with Gally Moyo whose husband stays in the rural areas.

a�?I had nowhere to go and started sleeping under a tree,a�? Shumba said.

The presiding magistrate Abednico Ndebele ordered Shumba to leave the home and accept that their relationship was over.
