OKUMURWA HEMBE NEZVIDHOMA . . . kusiiwa achinge Zodwa
MUKADZI wekwaMambo Chipuriro, kuGuruve, anoti atambiswa nhova nemanenji ari kuitika kwaari ekuti anongofugurwa kana kukururwa mbatya dzaanenge akapfeka, kusanganisira dzemukati, nezvidhoma — osiiwa asina chinhu, kuita kunge Zodwa.
Mhosva yacho: Hanzi bvuma kuenda nesu kunoroya, ukaramba bedzi hatikusiye.
Mukadzi uyu anoti haachaziva zvekuita nekuda kwezvidhoma zvechirume izvo zvaanoti zvinomubvisa mbatya zvichimuonerera pamadiro sezvo achisara asina chipfeko chemukati — kuita kunge Zodwa Wabantu, musikana wekuSouth Africa uyo aita mbiri nekusapfeka bhurugwa.
Paakaita hurukuro neKwayedza, mukadzi uyu — uyo anoti kana vana vake vari kutambwa imwe cheteyo nezvirume zvipfupi, zvine mazindebvu izvi — aiti ainge akapfeka mbatya, zvose nedzemukati, dzekukumbira.
Kana murume wake anotsinhirawo mashura aya.
Nguva nenguva vanoti vanoita mahwekwe mumba mavo nezvivanhu zvipfupi-pfupi, zvine mazindebvu izvo zvinozongotsakatika “kana zvapedza nesu”.
Izvi zvinonzi zviri kuitika masikati kana husiku, munhu otongoona ashama zvisinei nekuti anenge ari kupi.
Handi mbatya dzavakapfeka bedzi dzinongokururwa, asi kuti dzimwe dziri kutorwa mumabhegi kana muwodhuropu.
Aya ndiwo mashura akatarisana naMai Zvanyadza Masvosva (35) nemurume wavo VaAlbert Mutsawu (40) avo vagere mubhuku rekwaTagara.
Manenji aya anonzi ari kuitika pamusha pavo nekumba kuHarare.
“Mbatya dzamuri kuona ndakapfeka idzi ndatodzipihwa navamwene vangu, ini handisisina dzangu, zvose zvinongobvutwa — nezvemukati — ndosiiwa ndisina chinhu.”
Mai Masvosva vanovimba kuti kubuda pachena nedambudziko ravo kuchavaita kuti vawane vanovabatsira “nekuti ndanzwa”.
“Mbatya dzose zvadzo handisisina. Ndinobviswa ndobva ndatongodzishaya, kusara ndisina chinhu. Manapukeni emwana wedu mudiki chaiwo akaperawo kutorwa.
“Ini wacho ndinoitwa mukadzi nezvinhu izvi zvekuti kusikarudzi yangu kwave kugara kwakazvimba kuchishosha. Kana murume wangu handichamugutsa nekuda kwekuzvimba nekurwadziwa,” Mai Masvosva vanoudza Kwayedza.
VaMutsawu vanobva vatsinhira zvinotaurwa nemukadzi wavo: “Kutaura kuno vadzimai vangu kana chipfeko chemukati chaicho havasisina, zvapera kutorwa — vanongobviswa varere, vachifamba kana dai vagere zvavo pano pamba — votongoona vashama. Kana kuvana vedu nyaya yacho ndiyo ndiyo — vanongoona vasisina kupfeka.
“Ini kuHarare kwandinogara, ndinongoerekana ndawana mbatya muwondiropu nemagumbeze zvose pasisina. Pamwe pacho ndakangosiirwa bhachi chete.”
VaMutsawu, avo vanoti havasisina kana zano rekuita vanoenderera mberi: “Dambudziko iri rakatanga mumwedzi waChikunguru apo vadzimai vakandifonera vachiti vose nevana vainge varara vakapfeka, asi ndokufuma vakashama, vasina kupfeka kana zvipfeko zvemukati.
“Chakatanga kunyangarika zvipfeko zvemukati apo vadzimai vanoti vaimuka vasina kusimira uye vaine zviratidzo zvekuti vanenge vashinhwa nave.”
Vanoti mbatya dzavanokururwa vanobva vadzishaya zvachose.
Sezvinonzi mashura ekukatanurwa mbatya nezvinhu izvi mashoma, VaMutsawu vanotizve mudzimai wavo ave kugara akazvimba kusikarudzi yake, pamwe zvichida nekuda kwekushereketwa naye.
“Mhuri yakatombotiza pamba vakaenda kunogara kumba kwaamai vangu nenyaya yekuti vanoona zvivanhu zvipfupi-pfupi zvakaita sezvimhuka zvichifamba mumba medu.”
Kana vari mumba, VaMutsawu vanoti zvinhu zvavanofungidzira kuti zvidhoma izvi zvinongovhura gonhi, ivo votanga kuona zvemadzengerere apo izvo zvinenge zvichiridza tsamwa nekuita mutsindo unenge wevanhu vari kumhanya — “amai vozongoona kuti vanenge vatopedzwa navo”.
“Zvinorova marata nemadhoo uchitonzwa kunge vanhu. Mamwe mazuva tinonzwa zvinhu izvi zvichitaura nekuseka zvichiti hazvimbofa zvakatisiya nekuti zvinoda kuti mukadzi wangu aende kunoroya nazvo.
“Pano patiri kugara patsva, takatiza kwataimbova mugore ra2011 mushure mekunge mwana wedu mukuru akangofuma akokonyara makumbo nemawoko, nanhasi chirema,” vanodaro VaMutsawu. Murume uyu anoti
