ALICK Macheso's estranged wife Tafadzwa Fortunate Mapako failed to pitch up for her radio interview with Star FM's Tilder Moyo on Tuesday night saying she was waiting for her case to be finalised in court.

The interview was supposed to be held during the first hour of Moyo's show from 9-10pm where she was expected to tell her side of the whole saga, specifically the fontanelle (inkanda) treatment issue.

Mapako claims that the sungura maestro inserted his manhood and ej*culated into their child's mouth as treatment for a sunken fontanelle.

Macheso vehemently denied the allegations although he admitted having used the traditional kutara method which entailed moving his manhood on the face and head of the child.

StarFM had invited Mapako to tell her side of the story but the highly anticipated show was not to be as Tafadzwa sent an apology read out by Tilda, saying she would come and speak to the nation after the legal battle was over.

Moyo's popular show deals with social issues among them marital problems.

Macheso's fans have had burning questions on why Mapako poked fun at his male organ, equating its size to a caterpillar (kadoraokulicimbi).

Macheso and Mapako are involved in a bitter divorce and the civil court last week ordered Macheso to pay $1,030 per month in maintenance.

Mapako has since filed an appeal at the High Court demanding $7,130 in maintenance, arguing that she is unemployed and had been accustomed to a lifestyle that Macheso had introduced her to.

Her demands include a clothing allowance, a hair and beauty therapy allowance and an extra curricula activity allowance which all amount to $900.

The rest of the money is for the two children that the couple has, which Macheso doubts are his.

Mapako's appeal also states that the children need a maid, gardener, medical aid and a driver as she does not possess a driver's license.

DNA tests on the couple's two children are scheduled for today where it will be revealed whether or not Macheso is their father.

The paternity tests will be done at the Blood Transfusion Services of Zimbabwe in Harare at 2PM.

Macheso asked his estranged wife for their children's DNA tests following doubts raised by the Sungura star that he might not be the father of the two children.
