A 28-year-old married nurse has been caught cheating on her husband
with her landlady’s boyfriend in Chikanga high-density suburb in Mutare.
The illicit affair has since resulted in the collapse of the nurse’s
10-year-old marriage.
Caroline Karasawu, a qualified nurse at
Sakubva Clinic who was residing at Number 1832, Phase Two, Chikanga,
together with her husband until recently, is said to have fallen in love
with one Victor Makaye, who is also dating their landlady.
Makaye
is a soldier. Their shameful affair was brought to light after
Caroline’s husband intercepted some Whatsapp text messages between the
two love poachers and communicated with Victor pretending to be
Caroline.
In an interview, her former husband, Justice Munetsi,
narrated how he first heard rumours of his wife’s alleged affair with
Victor until the time he discovered it.
“We have been married
for about 10 years now and we have two kids together. We started staying
at Number 1832, Phase Two, Chikanga, about two years ago and we knew
our landlady, Miriam Kumirai, had her boyfriend Victor Makaye. The most
painful thing about their affair is that the boyfriend abused the trust
that I had in him as a family friend. We occasionally went out as
couples – my wife, Victor, his girlfriend (who was our landlady) and
myself. I had no reason to suspect that my wife and him (Victor) will
behave in such an animalistic manner.
Married Nurse Nabed Cheating on Whatsapp
“About
four months ago, I went out of the country to collect a vehicle and
upon my return I was told that Victor was spotted with my wife in town
during odd hours, but I somehow did not want to believe it.
“After
all, I was being told by another woman and I suspected that the woman
had a sinister agenda. However, I went on to ask my wife about it and
she denied all the allegations.
“Nonetheless, I started watching
her moves and for sure she was now acting weird, unexpected of a married
woman. At times, I would phone her and she would lie that she is at her
workplace when in actual fact some reliable sources at her workplace
would have confirmed to me that she was away. She started working
half-days in order to find time to be with Victor.
“One day I got
hold of her phone and I then came across some Whatsapp messages that
finally confirmed the affair. In fact, there was a message from Victor
saying: ‘I am now coming into town’. I replied the message asking ‘where
are you now’.
“He replied: ‘I am at Dangamvura turn-off on my
way to town’. Pretending to be my wife, I asked ‘where can I see you’
and he replied that ‘let me come to Chikanga and deal with Miriam
(landlady) first and we later meet in town’.
“I went on to lie
that ‘my husband is going to Watsomba for work’, adding that ‘nezuro
wakandifadza’. He replied that ‘uchitendei’. My wife then discovered
that her phone was missing and quickly suspected foul play. She hastily
went behind my back and alerted Victor. All of a sudden the man changed
the mood of the conversation,” he said.
Ironically, when the
husband sought the intervention of the wife’s parents after unearthing
the unholy affair, he was told that “aitsvaga makudo mugomo akamawana”
(He went too far in searching for trouble and he found it).
“When
I discovered that indeed my wife was cheating on me, I summoned the
landlady to discuss the issues. She acknowledged having suspected
something between the two.
“Miriam the landlady confessed that
she even confronted her boyfriend about it, but he denied everything
because she did not have concrete evidence.
“I later summoned my wife’s parents and brothers and, to my surprise, they supported the evil deeds of their daughter.
“In
fact, I was told that “waitsvaga makudo mugomo wakamawana” (You went
too far in searching for trouble and you found it),” he said.
The husband added that he has since moved out of their lodgings and is no longer interested in reuniting with his family.
When
contacted for comment, Victor denied having had an affair with
Caroline, but confirmed that the landlady was indeed his girlfriend.
“He
(the husband) is lying. He even tried to visit my workplace with the
intention of getting me punished, but he failed. I am surprised that he
has gone this far.
“Well, I know him and I am in love with the woman who owns the house where he is a lodger. That is all,” he said.
Caroline only answered her phone, but after this reporter formally introduced himself, she hung up and never answered again.
