Matero Local Court, Zambia, has heard how a woman from Chisamba, sexually starved her husband for four years, after he failed to pay her K3,000 she charged him for having a child out of wedlock.

According to Zambia Observer, Sophia Kwale, 32, a teacher by profession, said in line with her tradition, as admission of guilt for having a child, her husband, Samuel Chongo, 38, was supposed to pay her the money commonly known as ‘ndapusa’ (admission of guilt).

“In my tradition, when a man has a child outside wedlock, he is supposed to apologise by paying ndapusa.

“This can be in money or material form.

“I asked him to pay me K3,000 only or he wasn’t going to have sex with me,” she said.

Sophia said her husband later refused to pay ndapusa but wanted to have sex with her, so she charged him K500 which he paid instantly before she allowed him to engage in the act.

“I charged him K500 to make love with me and he paid it instantly.

“This was only last month. Before that, we last had sex in 2021.

“I didn’t even enjoy the sex because it was forced,” she said.

The court ordered the respondent to pay N18,000 monthly for feeding and maintenance of the two children and be responsible for their school fees and medical services.

According to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), earlier, Balikis in her petition prayed the court to grant her divorce due to irresponsible behaviour, lack of care, love and trust by her husband.

She told the court that her first child was AS while the second child was discovered to be SS.

“Our second child was always falling sick which prompted me to conduct a test and discovered she was SS.

“The only thing I know is that my parents said that my genotype is AA but I have never done an official test to confirm.

“That is why I told my husband before marriage that my genotype was AA while he told me he was AS,” she said.

She said that since her husband knew about her genotype, he stopped caring for her and the children and hardly gives them money for food and health services.

Responding, Jimoh told the court that he believed his wife when she said she was AA because she was educated and should know better.

“I met her through her aunty. I was angry when I learnt that her genotype is AS because I trusted her.

“I have accepted my faith.

“On October 17, my father-in-law invited me over and told me not to worry. He asked my wife to move out of the house.

“All efforts to resolve the issue failed and my in-law reported me to the Nigeria Security and Civil Defense Corps where I was directed to pay N10,000 monthly for children’s feeding,” he said.
