GISTSMATE MEDIA reports that a watchful 12-year-old girl in Lusaka, Zambia, has brought down a 77-year-old man after she exposed him to her father that he was sleeping with her mother, each time he was away.
The details of the unexpected adultery lay naked in the Matero Local Court where 77-year-old retiree, Kaluba Friday of Lusaka’s Matero sued his former tenant, Luckson Mwanza, aged 44 for defamation.
According to Zambia Observer, Luckson, an excavator operator residing in Chipata district of Eastern Province, was sued for defamation of character on grounds that he accused the plaintiff of sleeping with his wife.
Kaluba told the court that Mwanza had been his tenant since 2018 until last month when he decided to move from his house in Zingalume, but that they had complications regarding payment of last month’s rent.
The plaintiff said when he called Mwanza asking for his rent, the defendant refused saying he couldn’t pay him because he discovered that the old landlord overstepped his boundaries and was having sex with his wife, an accusation Kaluba said was false and he decided to sue him.
But when the court asked Mwanza if it was true he defamed an elder, he insisted that his statement was true as he was sure that the old man was enjoying his last days on top of his wife.
His job required him to be in Chipata, so his wife would only remain home with his 12-year-old daughter (her step-child) but that he would send her money for rent every month, and she would pay to Kaluba.
He stated that last month, he was informed by a neighbour that his wife was bringing in a man into their matrimonial home while he was away at work in Chapata district.
The neighbour told Mwanza to come to Lusaka in the night, around 04:00 a.m., so that he could catch his wife red-handed and indeed, it happened.
Following his wife’s act of adultery, Mwanza, decided to withdraw from the marriage and decided to shift from Kaluba’s house, while he took his daughter to Mazabuka to live with her aunt.
But it was during that trip that the child told him that actually, it was not only the young man he found servicing his wife, she revealed that the landlord too would come several times at night, and leave very early before anyone woke up, a story his wife who is currently in Kabwe also confessed to on the telephone.
Mwanza now caught the revelation, he was paying Kaluba for two things, the house, and to assist him in servicing his wife unknowingly.
The daughter, who was also present in court as a witness from Mazabuka, gave her testimony to the court in the chambers and reiterated that indeed Kaluba who she referred to as Bashikulu (grandpa), would come to their house on several occasions.
“Mum would tell me to leave the bedroom and sleep in the seating room each time Bashikulu came and they would close the door in the bedroom. My mother would tell me that he will kill me if I told dad,” the child testified.
But Kaluba, who suddenly inherited the spirit of the biblical Moses, denied the child’s allegations while stammering.
He said she was given what to say by her father adding that despite being widowed, he had his own girlfriend.
And in their submissions, Mwanza said he holds no grudges against Kaluba as it is good that he found out about what he was doing, while the plaintiff said the defendant should bring his former wife as witness instead of the child.
After the court spoke to the child in private, it already concluded this matter.
“This girl is too young to cook up such a story because it has no benefit both to her or the father, as she repeated the same story over and over again with the same details which showed that she was not told or had mastered it.
“The court has however established that the plaintiff and the defendant’s wife created a relationship during the time that the defendant would give his wife rent to pay directly to him. And it has been proven that his wife is unfaithful because he even caught her cheating red-handed in their matrimonial bed,” said Magistrate Lewis Mumba.
The court then dismissed Kaluba’s claim due to lack of merit as he failed to substantiate his claim, and advised him to desist from taking advantage of his position as landlord to sleep with his tenant’s wives.
