A Zimbabwean court has ruled that a woman Juliet Mbofana should stop dating married men and instead put her energy towards having her own husband.
Ms Mbofana had dragged her lover’s wife Winfilda Mpiyabo to court for allegedly threatening her and disturbing her peace, according to iHarare.
Mbofana told the court that she needed a protection order against Mrs Mpiyabo who often came to her workplace to threaten her.
“She is in the habit of visiting my workplace and threatening to kill me. She tells people that I snatched her husband yet the two of them have since divorced and I don’t know how I snatched her husband.
“She calls my boyfriend demanding things from him and on one occasion, she insulted my parents through the mobile phone.
“I want all that to stop because I am now living in fear as I do not know what she is going to do next, I plead with this court to protect me from this woman,” said the mistress.
In response, Mpiyabo told the court that she wasn’t divorced and that her husband (whose name was not mentioned) had paid her bride price in March but stopped coming home when he began the affair with Mbofana.
“He paid my brideprice in March. I call him to find out about his whereabouts. He should come home to his family, not spend time with his mistress,” Mpiyabo said.
The court barred Mpiyabo from visiting Mbofana’s workplace to cause chaos.
