A pastor’s wife, Mary Ngwenya, has asked the court to dissolve her marriage after her claiming her husband has been starving her of sex for the past seven years.
The pastor’s wife appeared before a court where he accused her husband, Petros Tshuma, a pastor with Zion Grace International, of not taking care of her sexual needs.
Mary, who told the court that her husband usually claims he is sick whenever she demanded sex, revealed he instead sleeps with other women in his church..
She said:
“Your worship, I’m sexually abused by this man as he last had sex with me in 2010. If I ask him about the issue he would promise to make up for it but when it’s time for sex he simulates sickness then claims to be feeling pain in his stomach.”
“What I know is that he enjoys sex with three ladies from our church. I have WhasApp text messages to prove that.
“I’m a human being. I don’t survive on Bible verses and I need my husband to sleep with me. Now I lead a pretentious life telling the women I lead that I’m enjoying my marriage while I’m sex starved.”
The pastor however pleaded guilty and admitted the blame.
He said:
“I love my wife but I have a problem, when I engage in sex my stomach starts to twinge as a result I feel an intense pain and due to that I had to stop. It’s not true that I’m in love with other women.
“My wife saw text messages from the women who wanted counselling on their marriages, due to that she quickly concluded that I’m in love with them.”
The judge in his order pronounced that the pastor have sex with his wife to avoid emotional trauma.
