Liar liar! screams ex-wife

SOUTH Africa-based self-proclaimed prophet, Sisonke Ndlovu, has now come under the spotlight, following his rather provocative claims that no man of God was free from scandal.

He made the sensational claims last week, as he sought to exorcise ghosts from his past, after a woman threatened to expose him for the person he allegedly truly was.

In a story published last week - No Man of God Has No Scandal; Sisonke revealed that he was involved in an adulterous affair, an affair which could have likely led to the demise of his church - Living God Ministries in Sizinda, Bulawayo.

His sentiments, perhaps an effort to make amends and peace with his "demons" could have opened a Pandora's box, as his ex-wife has come out guns blazing disputing his every word.

His ex-wife, whom he said he had divorced, who only identified herself as Ruth, exclusively told Sunday Life that she was not aware that they were divorced and as far as she was concerned they were still legally married, alleging that Sisonke left to marry a South African woman, leaving her to fend for their two sons.

"Sisonke is a liar; he shouldn't try to build a name for himself by disgracing other people. He claims to have been involved with one woman yet there are many women. I lived with him for five years and I know him for the true person he is. His church in Sizinda crumbled because of his lust and love of women," she claimed.

The ex-wife also slammed his claims that he was taking care of their children.

"He left us with nothing. I am struggling to fend for our children. He claims to be fending for the kids yet he only sends measly amounts of which he sends sporadically," she fumed.

"How can he put my family's name into disrepute like this? He also claims to have divorced me when in actual fact we are still married. I wasn't served with any papers as he claims. No lawyers or anyone from the courts approached me to that effect. I am sure he knows what he is doing seeing as he is already married to another woman, whom I feel sorry for. Once he is stabilised he will dump her like she did with us. I do acknowledge that we separated but we are not divorced. And we have been on separation for less than a year, which chapter according to the Marriage Act allows that? He is just in SA to make a name. He is just into ministry for the sake of making money," she said.

She added: "He should be a man and support his kids. I don't want him or anything from him apart from that."

In his response, Sisonke labelled her a bitter woman.

"She is a rude bitter woman who has no ounce of intelligence in her myopic brain. She was and is so rude that she made my home so uninhabitable such that my relatives did not want to visit. Well, isn't it strange how she speaks in that manner, if this were true she should have spoken at the time it was happening. She no longer enjoys the money I used to get as 'thank yous' from people. So now sengimubi (I'm now bad), but in any case I was a cheating man. I lied sometimes to do my things. But now to say I'm not a true man of God ah it's a story," he said.

Sisonke went on to say that he was miserable from the time he paid lobola for her.

"Yes, I understand that I did wrong but also I never recovered from her shenanigans when she was pregnant with our first born. She confessed to me when we were in Hillside at four months of pregnancy that she had been seeing other guys for money. I was upset and obviously threatened to leave but the chain on my neck of being a man of God stopped me. From the time of lobola I faced challenges on the day I collapsed and recovered after some time," he said, before alleging that his ex-wife was possessed and had to pray for her deliverance.

"The first day after lobola she woke up and growled at night in a man's voice saying I had taken the wife from him (the voice). I prayed for her and it stopped. Secondly she developed some acne problems which she attributed to women who wanted to destroy her marriage. I took her to a dermatologist; where she went on to meet a guy only known to me as Moyo. Whether he was really Moyo or not I don't know but the guy took an interest in her.

"And she seemingly did also having gone for meals even taking my son along. All the while I had not done any deed of adultery. To hear your kid went with another man to dinner with your wife is horrendous for anyone. I made up my mind to foolishly repay the favour," he said.

Sisonke said his marriage broke down in 2014.

"To say I left them and disappeared is untrue because they went to Harare and even then there were stories coming to me of errant activities so really I also decided to go seek spiritual help somewhere and took my clothes, a few of them. When I was there I was told by relatives she said I ran away and she took the property, up to the curtains. I then sought another place of residence. We had separated over three times before this last time. She chased people away from church with her rude attitude," he said, claiming that his ex-wife was the reason for the collapse of the church.

Sisonke went on to allege that his ex-wife was also sleeping with someone and her claims were an attempt to belittle him.

"Nobody can live with that woman peacefully. She has many ways to embarrass any man. Recently she said to me she is seeing a man better than me. So really who is the loose party here? I have made my peace with all including the church. This is a futile attempt to destroy whatever is left of me. Sadly I have no time to fight this woman," he said.
