A married prophetess was recently caught red-handed in bed with another man who is her neighbour, iHarare reports.

Sometime this month, Josiah Madziva and the prophetess were caught at the latter’s matrimonial home by her husband David.

According to the publication, David was allegedly tipped off by his brother Tanaka Mtizwa.

Out of shame, Madziva said he had come to collect holy water from Mtizwa’s wife who is a prophetess.

The matter was reported at Chief Gutu’s court who then ordered Josiah Madziva of Mbirikira Village, Thornhill Farm to pay five cows after finding him guilty of taking a neighbour’s wife.

Delivering the judgment, Chief Gutu said Madziva was a cruel home breaker.

The chief said the evidence given in court showed that Madziva and Mtizwa’s wife truly had an adulterous affair, Masvingo Mirror reports.

In other news, iHarare reported that a traditional leader from Bitita went viral on social media platforms after compromising photos of him leaked.

Chief Mupakwa from Bikita is in the eye of a storm after photos of him being amorous with an unidentified woman somehow found their way onto social networking platforms.

The traditional leader’s risque photos have attracted criticism and outrage. This is because, in Zimbabwe, traditional leaders are regarded as the custodians of cultural values.

They play many roles in local communities, culture and families which include resolving disputes.
