Artist shot by wife's 'lover' dies

A Bulawayo artist, Tawanda 'Mapecca' Moyo, who was allegedly shot by his wife's lover in July this year has died.

A source told Bulawayo24.com that Moyo dies on Tuesday morning.

Moyo was allegedly shot by an umalayitsha cum-businessman who is believed to have been having an illicit affair with his wife.

While admitted at Impilo hospital Moyo had demanded that his wife should not visit him.

Before passing on, Moyo had said on the night he got shot, he had trailed his wife Mrs Jacqueline Chesigelenaso (Banda) Moyo from work in the city centre, where she met with her alleged lover Mr Oricious Moyo (38), who is also her employer at a fast food outlet, in Emakhandeni suburb, where they then drove to his house in Emganwini where he got shot.

Former ZBC presenter Ezra 'Tshisa' SIbanda has said: "Why is the murderer not incarcerated and charged with murder? Tawanda's embarrassing disgusting dirty wife deserves to rot in hell together with her monstrous manipulative, coward, heartless devil."

"It's time for Bulawayo community to boycott the murderer's chip shop. Let's get justice for Mapecca, the businessman should never be allowed to get away with murder!"
