A Bulawayo man has told a magistrate that he pimps his wife
for booze. “ I’m not gainfully
employed, as a result I agreed
with my wife who also takes alcohol that I will pimp her for beer. And I always pimp her for beer and on
rare occasions for money for our family daily upkeep,” said Mpumelelo Dube.
He added “Last week I pimped her to an artisanal
miner. Shockingly she did not return and returned on the following day. I was
angered by that and I had to hit her with fists.”
The wife, Melody Sibanda said :“When he married me I was a
s.ex worker. Usually at any drinking spot I do a short time s.ex service with a
man who would in return buy us beer and that has been helpful to us as it has
sustained our relationship.”
“Last week on Friday
I failed to return home because I got heavily drunk and had to sleep at the
artisanal miner’s lodgings. I went back home and explained to him (Dube) but he
did not accept my explanation. He beat me all over the body with fists and
kicked me while shouting obscenities at me.”
At the end of a full trial Dube was found not guilty of
assault.
