TWO teachers at a city primary school, who have been having an adulterous relationship, were busted at the weekend when they were caught in bed in the early hours of Saturday.
Thomas Chikanga, 51, and Nomathamsanqa Nyathi, 36, have been having this adulterous affair since last month. They are both teachers at Westridge Primary School in Belvedere.
Nyathi’s husband is a soldier who is based in Kwekwe.
This gave the two an opportunity to have their affair with Nyathi unashamedly conducting this illicit affair from her matrimonial bedroom.
She even introduced Chikanga to her children, who include her daughter aged 16, and told them that his visits were meant to help her in her job as a teacher.
Chikanga would end up sleeping at her house, in Budiriro, and leave for his Highfield home at around 4am to ensure he was not spotted by the children. In the early hours of Saturday, the two were caught in bed by Nyathi’s husband, Noel Matiza, 39, following a tip-off.
H-Metro rushed to the scene and Chikanga told us:
“She lied to me that she had separated with her husband and that is why I slept here several times.
“We fell in love at the school where we share subjects for one class and we fell for each other and I had planned to take her in as my second wife.
“We started dating sometime in February this year.
“I do not see it right to continue with the affair after learning that Nomathamsanqa is still with her husband.
“I cannot be used to settle her differences with her husband.
“Ukuwo kumba kwangu hameno ndikasanochekwa musoro namadam vangu nekuti vaudzwa.”
Nyathi told H-Metro that she was ƨǝx-starved since Matiza had not been coming back home from Kwekwe, where he works, for some time.
“There was nothing I could do since my husband had abandoned me for long,” she said.
“I ended up dating my workmate and was prepared to be his second wife.
“Anoshandira kuKwekwe uko, musoja saka akangondisiya asingadzoke saka ndaizodiiwo?”
Matiza told H-Metro:
“This is her second time she has cheated me. We once separated after I learnt that she had been bedding my workmate.
“Akavhevhetedza umwe wandinoshanda naye vakasvika pakudanana nenyaya yekuda mota.
“I found my friend sleeping in my one-roomed house with my wife and we separated.
“She denied bedding him and relatives pleaded with me for a reunion only to discover that she has been cheating on me again.”
Matiza did not attack Chikanga and Nyathi but said he was going to take Chikanga’s underwear to a traditional healer. HMetro.
