Woman who lost two kids while pursuing cheating husband, has died

Share

MAKHOSAZANA Dlamini Haanzele, the woman who recently tragically lost two children in an accident in Nyumba Yanga while pursuing her husband, has died.

Mrs Dlamini-Haanzele, 38, died in Lusaka on Friday. The cause of her death was not yet established by press time although sources close to the family said she died at the University Teaching Hospital (UTH).
The funeral is being held in Kabulonga at plot number 8652 Kudu Road.

A family spokesperson who did not want to be quoted told the Sunday Mail that a statement would only be issued once the family sat to discuss but appealed for privacy while mourning their relative.

Three weeks ago on June 28, Mrs Dlamini-Haanzele, while in the company of three of her children and her brother-in-law, was involved in an accident at the junction of Leopards Hill and Godfery Chitalu roads. The accident happened around 20:00hours.

Two of her children aged 12 (Jolezya) and eight-year-old Michelo died on the spot while one (15) was seriously injured after the Suzuki Grand Vatara Registration number ALC 2482 she was driving plunged into a ditch when she lost control of it.

    • Sosososososo sad, but I wished it was the husband who died. He shouldn’t marry in his life time, his marriage skills has caused 3 deaths, and so many scars.

    • Ladies if you married an as.shol.e no amount of chasing, crying, baby popping tactics will change him.

      Unfortunately, this woman didn’t and it cost her the life of her children and her own life. Meantime the as.shol.e she married is free to ruin more women’s lives. Mushota pass the puke bucket please.

    • Too bad. I heard the husband offered a lift to their neighbor who is actually blind and the wife thought the husband had picked a slut. Hope she’d repented and she’s welcome to heaven….. RIP

  1. Very very sad ending to this woman’s nightmare. This is a lesson to all UPND adulterous cadres, one woman should be enough for any normal human being regardless of how many bull bullocks one’s eaten in his life. If Mr Haanzela wasn’t promiscuous and never took the ‘tonga bull’ joke seriously and as a licence to lift women’s skirts everywhere his family would still be alive today. PLEASE STOP POLYGAMY IT’S ADULTERY.

    • iwe ka @Msana Wanzili
      your have a twisted brain thats why your reasoning is upside down… you dont even know this Haanzele man well.. he might be using his mother`s surname…. his father might be a runaway bemba like Father bwalya`s,,, or in fact you might be sharing the same father,,, and you are having a go at your blood relatives

    • At times one would wonder why the intrinsic foray of our national is not on a developmental upswing. Then one reads a comment such as Musala’s SMH!

    • In your mother’s experience, what’s the going rate for having your skirt lifted? And is there a price differential based on partisanship. What about the resulting b’stard, who pays for their education or does no one pay at all?

  2. Very tragic indeed. The only way to honor Makhosazana and her 2 kids Jolezya and Michello is to grant the family their request: To mourn in privacy. I think that’s extremely important.

    Having emphasized that, I have no further comment to make on the matter.

  3. Stupid Man losing 2 children at once. You are to blame for the 3 deaths. I wish the court could charge you, but all the same God will do that.

    • sad as it is, my advice to women is that they should never do a formular 1 racing chasing after a cheating husband, wait for him at home and iron out issues. May soul rest in peace.

    • Ba Mwaka hold your fire. Its the woman and not the man who is to blame. How we respond to a problem matter than the problem itself. The bembas say “umulandu mume baukumpulafye” and English has it that “error is human”, Yes the man was in the wrong cheating on the wife but the woman should have handled the matter responsibly.

    • ShiMpundu
      You don’t know how long she’d put up with this tonga bull’s nonsense. We don’t know how far this pathetic excuse of a man had pushed her to the edge for her to do such a thing which unfortunately has cut short three beautiful lives.

  4. if its true the `cause` of the tragic car crush which claimed those lives was the womanising of the husband…. then the husband has a horrible life ahead of him,,, worst for the girl!!!

    • If he was cheating or not, he failed to raise a family. Why should my wife have a room for “suspicion” in my marriage?
      That Tonga Haaanzele (Wa-nsele), should just go to his village and prepare his departure from earth. There are so many, especially PF, who can volunteer to help him leaving faster.

    • kekekekekeke.. abane nostradamus… you should preach love and God, its sunday today and you are a child of God ,,,leave tribes and politics alone just for today sunday

    • Ok Ba Ndobo, but remember we are at funeral, if you heard how women mourn, even insulting themselves… “… hooo mayo ine, kanshi nine basendelamo, ne kabwa nene”. Somehow , its not just tribal formular, if this trategy happened among the Ungas, that Hanzeele would have buried the wife alone!!.

  5. Too bad indeed, but I was just wondering why she had chase this id.iot of a husband be it on foot, car or anything. She should have left him if she knew he was cheating on her. See the dog is alive while the rest of the family have died. This really hurts and should set as an example to all those that stick to their foolish cheaters eventhough they know the facts. Leave them while you are alive and move on than wait until disaster strikes. Ba fikamba ubu chende nabukulu sure bantu banene, buluya. RIP

    • Beshi mwanike mwebo Ba Lukanga, teshi buchende. Yes the guy is muluya for not be able to handle the marriage. You guys need to know how to love and how to be loved. Maybe its because I am married to a Latino. She respects me to an extent that if she suspected of cheating she will ask me.
      Today she asked me at church what was interesting on the woman I kept on starring on in church… and I honestly said “her dress was fitting her hips to tight, please get one like that”. She on internet ordering.. And my wife will not leave me.

  6. Cheating does not pay. He has now lost a wife and 2 children. I wonder if the woman he was cheating with will still be “sweet” after this. Stupid man. MTSRIP, she couldn’t handle the depression.

    • As a woman, I think this lady should have either gone to chase the husband alone or waited for him to come home and confront him in the bedroom. I thought that is what we are taught when we enter womanhood. Too bad she lost her children and eventually her life. But I can imagine if she had survived and faced the calamity she caused.

  7. @msana wanzili. Come off it man! There’s no need to go off the line here. Is Sata and Sakeni UPND? I’m not Tonga, but I know more Bemba polygamists than I know of Tongas. They call their “extra” women all sorts names. Concubine, Chick, girl friend and so on and yet sire child after child with these poor women. The children are “hidden” and only make up surprise appearances at the funerals of their fathers much to the chagrin of the “real” wife.

    Bufi all the time!

    • iwe ka @Msana Wanzili

    • IWE MAYO OR TATA THERE IS AN ENGLISH SAYIN WHICH SAYS WHAT U DON’T HAVE U WILL OFTEN DENY. U AR BIZ BLAMING THE DEPARTED SOUL THAT SHE SHOULD HAVE TAKEN TIME. OR THAT SHE LUCKED MARRIAGE COUNSELLING. AM REPEATING THIS WAT U DO NT VE U WILL OFTEN DENY. I GUESS U AR NT MARRIED COZ IN MARRIAGE ESPECIALLY OF NOWADAYS VE PROBLEMS . I DON’T BLAME HA LEVELS OF ANGER YALIPUSANA AND TIME TAKEN FOR BEING CHEATED. IT WAS GOIN TO BE BETA IF YOU SOUGHT AN AUDIENCE WIT HA B4 SHE PASSED ON AND HEAR THE PROBLEMS SHE ENCOUNTERED WITH THE STUPID MAN. BOTH HANZELE WHATEVER THEY MAY KO HIM AND THE PROSTITUTE WILL NT STAY LONG THEIR LIVES AR HAUNTED BY THESE THREE SOULS. SO BAMAYO MWILAIBEPA ATI LIMIMBI TAPITILE MU MARRIAGE CONSELLING, Y IS THE RATE OF DIVORCES SO HIGH IN ZAMBIA LATEL?

  8. No regrets, she got what she wanted, I am only sad that innocent children died in the process., Nsanje does not pay, what if the woman she thought was a girlfriend turned turned out to be a workmate to the husband or client? Should you put other road users at risk? Stupid woman , rest in pieces

  9. what can stop us womanizing when our leaders do the same? eg department of justice and the presidency all have done it before. it was folly of a jealous woman no mercy from me.

  10. Everyone cheats whether tonga,bemba,Lozi etc.No need to attack tongas.SATA has a lot of children with defferent women,even Kaseba was just a girl friend in 2011.That`s why they were quick to add sata to her last name.When PF won,everyone kept asking why Chritine was just Dr Kaseba and no sata at the end.So before you point fingers,ask yourslef and your band of bufies if you`re perfect first of all.Even GBM has plenty of children outside marriage.That`s why he keeps beating his wife to shut her up.Poor woman,maybe she should just drive herself into a dich too.
    So,don`t be tribal,just say cheating is bad full stop.Why be tribal when the menace is common amongst all tribes? Grow up Mr BUFI.One Zambia,One woman.

    • -Not everyone cheats.
      -The reason I have difficulty respecting Christine Kaseba is her liaison with Sata

    • That’s why I have difficulty respecting Christine Kaseba as First Lady – she’s educated and should have been emancipated, but she denigrated herself with a married man (Sata), who also had many concubines.

      To me, it doesn’t matter that the man ended up as president – their relationship is still unpalatable.

  11. Very sad. Only lessons learnt here are (1) Be faithful (2) Leave space for your partner to socialise with other people (3) Be content with what you have (4) Trust one another no matter what you hear (5) Love…….above everything else. MHSRIP

  12. Very sad news. What a loss/losses in such a short time!!! Another word to Zambian men…cheating is not your birth right. Let this be a lesson to all you philanderers. Why not channel your energies to improving lives of many Zambians?
    Someone needs to keep an eye on that husband before he does something nasty or goes mental.

  13. I wonder what could have led to her death…depression would have taken longer. most likely she took some drugs to end it all. In the first place, the family should have known that this was likely to happen, the story being in the media attracted a lot of attention. The ridicule on the poor woman was too much to bear alone. Family members should have been tough on her by being by her side every minute and take her for vigorous counselling to help her accept that what had happened had happened. Rest in peace dear lady, we do make mistakes and some tend to be too costly and hard to bear.

    • Did they actually say she committed suicide? It might not have been, getting news of a tragic event like that can actually cause a quick death for a number of reasons especially for one who is already mentally and possibly physically compromised like she was.

  14. This is very tragic indeed but my only question is WHAT THE HELL WAS SHE DOING PURSUING HER HUSBAND WITH HER KIDS IN THE CAR?!!!!! I’m sorry to say but her kids should have been priority. Even if her kids were already in the car & they had spotted him, it was a decision she could have made. This should be a lesson for all of us women. This scam bag who was cheating on her isn’t worth a life later on 3. Now we have a child who has no mother and a loser for a father.

    • @ Mrs B
      Your last sentence “Now we have a child who has no mother and a loser for a father”, has evoked tears from eyes. If whilst tucked in her mother’s womb this child knew of this, may be s/he would have chosen not to be born at all. Suddenly the siblings are gone and now the last beacon of hope, the mother, has also been called to the isolation of the grave leaving him/ her with an adulterous Dad.
      How cruel this world can be!

    • Really whateveryournameis?!

      Seat beats is your biggest issue here?! Oh & everyone else is bubbling? What a know it all! Proves you really don’t know much because that is actually the surface, yep, I just called you clueless, shallow & arrogant.

  15. I hope bafikala who like cheating on their wives will learn from this tragic! Please stop cheating and infecting your wives with HIV and AIDS, you are breaking their hearts. I really hope Haanzele has learnt some good lesson from all this tragedy. Warning to women out their please stay away from Haanzele alinachibanda! MHSRIP

  16. look above and confess how many times you have cheated your partner, before you commenting, because it is not long when you the same people were blaming the woman,now that she is dead, you are shifting to the man. background matters and mind you God is watching you

  17. The death of Dhlamini is really sad. My advice to married women is this; when your husband cheats, consider it a natural disaster and do what any normal human being would do when disaster strikes – SAVE YOUR OWN LIFE. Even on the plane, passengers are advised to take care of themselves before they can assist others. WOMEN PLEASE, develop an attitude of SELF LOVE; LOVE YOUR HUSBANDS BUT LOVE YOURSELVES MORE and ENOUGH to walk away when you life is at risk. You don’t owe anyone including GOD, anything that you should pay by staying married to men who cheat on you. THERE’S NO NOBEL PRIZE for marriage, people. If it means you marry and remarry eight times or more like Elizabeth Taylor did, by all means do so. Whose life are you living anyway?

    • Unfortunately your advice is against ‘Owners’ instructions. The Creators instructions are as simple as you would like them to be old fashioned. Husbands love your wives as Christ loved His church and gave his life for it. Wives submit to your husband as unto the Lord. Those who have had this revealed to them will not go the way of this story. Fortunately it got nothng to do with tribes. Its for whoever the Lord our God will call.

  18. Its embarrasingly sad that innocent lives had to be lost in all this because of a cheating husband, I wish she had found a better approach to this whole issue to avoid all this. Mhrip. And to the husband if u are really guilty seek forgiveness from the lord.

  19. Just a thought, If it’s true this lady was pursuing the husband in a car with a car, what exactly could she have wanted to do once she caught up with him? Bump into his car with hers? Or better yet pack, come out and thrash to him..i bet he would have gone a km by then! There is something to this case that is not coming out.

  20. She has paid for her jealous. Sometimes its good to chill when handling certain situations. There was no need for her to chase her husband with a car like rally drivers. Why didn’t she wait for him home to resolve the matter with family members.

    • @ JJ U AR EVIL U SAYIN THIS BECOZ ITS NT U ALACHILAKALIPA AND U DO NT KNW HW SHE HAD SUFFERED. UNLESS U TELLIN ME U ONE OF THOSE WHO CHEAT AS WELL

  21. why do you want people to believe that women dont cheat.A lot of men are victims of cheating wives.why blame it on men or more stupidly on a tribe!grow up and stop that tribal nosense cos tmorrow it will b u mr clean.

  22. This is a learn to all women. Don’t chase the man when you suspect he is having an affair, you will just die and he will marry again. Just like this chase. The Man will marry again

  23. Zambian women have this thing about their husbands. They completely forget about what they carried in their tummies for 9 months. Our children should be number one……Not ichimuntu ichi shili your blood. Stay home with the kids and have fun and be happy. You can never possess a man. If you get bored, go to back to school…..or join the convent

    • I totally agree with you my sister. Our children are the most important after all. Even if a man cheats on, never should you follow. Remember of the Kabwe woman who was poured hot water by the husband ‘s mistress. At the end of it all that man still remains yr hubby and will come back to you. May the soul of Dlamini Rest in Eternal Peace.And to these so called “promiscuous men”,one thing you shld remember is that God watches whatever you do. Keep that in mind. Hanzele has caused the death of three innocent people. It’s very painful. Let other men learn from this. Open your eyes and be truthful to your women

  24. May Her Soul Rest In Peace……..But I feel she went through a depression and couldn’t handle life without those beautiful kids, no school runs, no Happy birthdays, no fighting over the remote control, no noise of video games, no more bathing them and most of all no more of their smiles and tears. Now can all of us imagine life without all this. May be had the kids been buckled in their seat belts it would have been a different story. Lets all remember to tie our kids up in their seat belts and not chase after useless men. He will but always returns home. I know of a cheating man who lost his Pregnant Wife, 2 kids and a mother in law in one accident caused by his cheating somewhere on the copper belt. It took him Donkey years to recover but is married now and still cheating. MEN!!!!!!!!!
