Harare magistrate Ms Johanna Mukwesha last week granted a peace order to a woman who was being emotionally abused by her estranged husband of 22 years .
Monica Manuwere took her ex-husband Hatrick Mapopo to the Civil Court following the emotional abuse he was subjecting her to.
She alleged that her ex-husband constantly came to her home taunting her for failing to conceive during the 22 years of their marriage.
Manuwere cried uncontrollably as she was pleading with the court to be granted the order.
She accused Mapopo of leaving their marriage and choosing to stay with their house maid.
Mapopo, however, denied the allegations, stating that their separation was a result of infidelity as his wife was dating another man.
“Your Worship this woman is lying the truth is that l almost committed suicide after l found love text messages between her and our driver in her phone.
“The most painful thing is that she was referring to the driver as ‘Daddy’ while she address me as ‘Baba Natie’,” said Mapopo.
Mapopo also accused his wife of attempting to kill him before he left to live in Chitungwiza.
