Mapfumo’s first wife, Elizabeth Marwizi, last week confessed that she sought charms to ensure that he did not sleep with other women including his second wife. Elizabeth claimed that she sourced the charms from a Shamva prophetess.
Elizabeth said she did not mean to kill Mapfumo. “When I went to Madzimai in Shamva, I just wanted her to help me so that my husband does not sleep with other women. I gave her Wisdom’s shirt which she used juju on but believe me I did not want to kill him.”
Mapfumo’s elder sister, Nomercy Mapfumo is not happy. “Ndarwadziwa nekufa kwehanzvadzi yangu. Asati aroyiwa nemukadzi wake aiva nehutano hwakanaka,” she said. She said efforts to take her brother to PHD ministries proved fruitless as she was told that it was too late to “deliver” him.
“With the help of my friends, I took my brother to Prophet Magaya’s church. Unfortunately, they said that it was too late because he no longer had blood in his body. Akanga awoma shaya nemutezo vakati havachakwanise kumubatsira sezvo aiva asisina ropa vakati tiende naye kuchipatara,” she said.
She added that when they took him to Harare hospital, tests done on him showed he had poison in his body. Wisdom’s relatives said they are now confused as to what really killed him. “Hatichaziva kuti chii chakauraya hama yedu, kuroiwa here kana kuti ipoison,” said the deceased’s aunt, Virginia Simango.
The deceased’s relatives want to take Elizabeth to the civil courts. “When we went to Mbare police, they told us that they do not handle witchcraft cases. They referred us to the civil courts,” said Nomercy. Wisdom is survived by two wives and two children and he was expected to be buried today. – State Media

    If the dead [about whom it could justifiably be said “too late”] could be raised back to life, how can it be “too late” for s/body still breathing??!! Matsotsi musatinyepere kuita kunge vanhu vaMwari!!

  11. Who would such a young man have two young wives and have sex with one whilst the other is watching in the same room? The world is coming to an end. I also do not understand how a shirt would kill somebody? The older wife is also a victim here. He could have died of other ailments and not witch craft. MHSRIP

    But hospital found poison in his blood, so why is police not investigating murder or suicide?
