Mberengwa chief impregnate­s sex drugs peddler’s wife

- — Masvingo Mirror

CHIEF Bvute, born Andrew Bvute (67) of Mberengwa, has impregnate­d the wife of a man who used to sell him sex enhancing tablets.

Biggy Munyesegwa (43) of Yorks business centre in Mberengwa discovered the pregnancy through messages in his wife’s phone on Saturday.

The Mirror is in possession of the messages.

Chief Bvute confirmed the allegation­s although he initially denied the story. He later said the woman lied to him that she was single.

There have been many complaints that Chief Bvute, who stays 2km away from Yorks business centre, dates married women. The Mirror is told that Munyesegwa reported the issue to Mberegwa district co-ordinator Vafios Hlavati and was referred to Chief Chizunze.

Munyesegwa told The Mirror this week that Chief Bvute was a regular client who bought sex enhancing tablets from him. When Munyesegwa is not at home, the tablets are sold by his wife Princess Musorowach­ena (30).

“I remember introducin­g my wife to the chief, telling her to respect the chief and never to disclose to anyone that he was buying sex tablets. The chief had to buy tablets in private,” Munyesegwa said.

Munyesegwa went to work at Sabi Mine in Zvishavane in September last year and he came back and found his wife with a phone that she secretly kept.

He went through the messages in the phone and discovered love messages between the chief and Musorowach­ena.

He was shocked to realise from the messages that his wife had been impregnate­d by the chief. The messages between the chief and Musorowach­ena have gone viral on social media groups in the village. “I am hurt and confused. I am asking the world to help me, I don’t know what to do. Bvute was my client who bought sex tablets from me. I introduced him to my wife so that he could get his orders from her whenever I am not there.

“I recall saying to her, this is our chief please ensure that he is given privacy when he buys tablets because he is a respected person in the community.

“I was away since September last year and when I came back I noticed that my wife was having an affair with the chief and they communicat­ed using a phone she kept in secrecy,” Munyesegwa said.

In one of the messages, Musorowach­ena said to the chief: “I am pregnant, are you going to take good care of the pregnancy till birth?”

The chief replied: “Ko wazogoita nhumbu sei uri pajongwe rako (But why did you fall pregnant when you have a husband?”

“It was a mistake,” the she responded.

“Am appealing to the world for help, how can I deal with this matter.

“I suggest the unscrupulo­us chief should be punished because the community says he has a habit of dating married women,” narrated the bitter Munyesegwa.

Munyesegwa and Musorowach­ena have been married since 2013 and have two children.

Bvute initially said the story was false, but when The Mirror told him that the messages to Musorowach­ena were from the number that The Mirror had called him, he said the woman told him she wasn’t married.

“I didn’t know that the woman was married. She lied to me that she was single and we started dating. How could I date a married woman?” asked Bvute.
