Small house assault lover over money

A Cowdray Park man in Bulawayo was severely assaulted by his small house over a  money dispute.

Clifford Nkomo's  crime was that he was no longer giving   Lunia Moyo enough cash for food.

Nkomo had been in love with Moyo for a long time.

His wife had no clue of the affair.

However, when Nkomo's wife became aware of the affair, she started grabbing and hiding all of his salary.

That resulted in Nkomo not being able to take care of his small house.

That led to Nkomo being assaulted.

"Nkomo was assaulted using a hoe handle all over his body" said

Lyton Ndlovu who witnessed the drama.

"When I saw Nkomo laying on the ground I rushed to rescue him.

"Moyo told me that it had been long since Nkomo gave him money and he was not explaining why he had stopped".

Another eyewitness, Betty Maphosa said the battered Nkomo later told his  wife that he was attacked by criminals.

"He said he was attacked as he was coming from work and was robbed of his mobile phone and money.

"It was difficult for us to tell his wife the true story".

On his part Nkomo said he does not discus his family affairs with the media.
