WIFE of former Matero Member of Parliament Miles Sampa has asked the Lusaka High Court to dissolve her 11-year marriage because it has bro-ken down irretrievably.In her petition for dissolution of marriage filed in the Lusaka High Court registry, Mwika Mwenechanya Sampa, an economist, said the marriage has broken down as they have lived apart for a continuous period of two years.
She said in November 2015, the couple mutually agreed that Mr Sampa, who is former Deputy Minister of Commerce, Trade and Industry, moves out of the matrimonial home and have since lived apart.
Mwika asked the court to grant her sole custody of the child of the family with Sampa to be allowed reasonable access.
She also asked the court to order that she continues residing in the matrimonial house and a further order for property settlement.
Mwika proposed that each party bears their own legal costs for the proceedings and prayed that the marriage be dissolved as her husband had consented that a decree nisi be granted.
Lusaka times please gives us real news not gossip
This is court news weh
She just found out he has NO BALLS besides being spine-less.
Any man who kneels down to Lungu or any politician is NOT worthy of a husband.
This now explains Miles’ political instability. However, the main issue here is money. Miles perpetually looks a sad man.
It is not a surprise these days. We know the issue is wealth sharing in the name of keeping the children. Now let me telling you madam wife, other men are waiting to take over and give you what you want but with the intention to have access to the wealth you want to wrestle from Miles. Sampa wesu abakale balandile ati ‘Ubukulu bwansupa tebukali bwa bwalwa’. Kabili ukupesha chibola kumupengwilamo. Muleke aleya! Umwaume mwaume nangu basabaile ifi abanakashi, umwaume mwaume. Efyo shikulu anjebele ilyo talafwa. It is like the gender thing has be understood in a different way. A man is a man and a woman shall remain as that period. It shall never be 50/50
I totally agree with you. More over Miles Sampa is still young. I am a Zambian lady aged 38 who is well educated and works for the World Bank in the States. I need a man of my own. So, could one connect me to Miles Sampa? I like this gentleman especially if he could marry after his divorce with his wife. I have no child as I have never been married before. Please can someone help..?
@2.1 all that glitters is not gold.
Mwansa Mbulakulima: You’re so backward. Is the point of filing for divorce to share wealth? Are you a father of a daughter or daughters? Would you want them to be miserable in a marriage or at work because of their gender? Do you recognize that half the genetic material in you is from your mother and that literally makes you half woman? All you saying is that this matter is too advanced for you. You are too backward to recognize injustice , perhaps not just in the gender matter but in other aspects of life. If you are the reading and learning type which I doubt, just use the computer keyboard to download literature on the gender issue and you will find views such as yours neutralized with gusto.
mwansambula kulima , you are mouthful…… you dont know the issues well. Divorce is traumatic and the best is to pray for the parties
She cannot stand the ghosts from Ruth Mbandu.
decree nisi
Now Miles can marry his side chick Iris Kaingu.
Wow wow wow!!!!!
Decree nisi granted forthwith. Henceforth the plaintiff ceases to use the names of the respondent.
In any case a marriage can be many things women with money can respect a man who is a husband and friend, a woman can also stay in a marriage 99.9% where the man has money to take care of the family but what we don’t know is the happenings behind closed doors.
A woman yes can find it even easier to leave a man who might be strangling to make it in life mostly its via comparison eg how others are doing but that does not mean it won’t be a traumatic period for both parties.
A woman who can stand on her own 2 feet can also divorce or separate herself from a man not truly connected in a relationship.
Just some reasons to dispel the woman money no marriage, it can work out of commitment and out of love and out of what God has joined together and each knowing there place. Lets stop…
Marriage is truly traumatic. However, note that some of our politicians are playboys. Remember Newstead Zimba, Lameck Mangani and many more who abandoned their wives due to more money in the pockets. Normally the party that is at fault always lives to regret their decision.
Very true. I know of one.
Divorce is a terrible thing! With annual divorce rates in Zambia averaging 30,000 and on the rise, we should not expect a normal society going forward. Infidelity is number one cause of divorce in our so called Adulter0us Christian nation! Shame!
Mwansambula Kulima has good points. All of you must critically read what he wrote before attacking him
Ubukulu bwa nsupa tebukali bwa bwalwa or ubukulu bwa matako te bwingi bwa mafi…..kikikiki.. Bemba people !!
But Mwika, why stick to the matrimonial house!!!!!!!!!!!!! build yours and leave. wealth settlement my foot.
If that’s what she wants let her have it. These women are more into money than marriage itself. What are those problems that cannot be solved but resolved?
There was no water in PHI in the morning as usual to bath to go for work,and I should be told about some chap divorcing. Living in Lusaka is a night mare, waterwise. You can’t flush toilets in the night in PHI because there is no water. What type of life is this 54 years after independence, Kafue river is less than 50 kilometers away. What a finished company, this Lusaka water
Take up this matter with the relevant authorities. This is a story about the divorce of a politician which is of interest to some people. We sympathise but you’re on the wrong forum.
@2.1
There are so many men out there who are single and descent. Like someone had said before, not what everything that glitters is gold. So careful, carry out a background check before taking a step you may end up in the same dilemma.
You can as well get in touch with this writer for advice.
It’s either she’s fed up or she’s moved on. He must have moved on too
Living miles apart!
I now understand why men in Bostwana opt for cohabitation. You can die early these days. These marriages are now a cause of early departure from earth.
This is a country with a very high HIV rate. The country has been ravaged by AIDS and you want to emulate them? Go ahead. I hope you get everything the Tswanas have got as a result of a lax attitude towards sex and relationships.
She’s already seeing someone else’s . conjugal rights is the only problem.
Marriage is a life long relationship not a contract too bad that you Have failed to pull the rope in one direction. Sad mwe
Ba Veronica your flag shows South Africa and you are working in States will not attracting to Sampa infarct independent women of diaspora are dangerous. Sampa careful with these media Jezebels
