Very evil man. I was going to say some bad things but I am in mourning so I won’t
bad man
Big bro KZ. Marital disputes in most case are emotional but men need to show leadership by managing their anger. People should understand that marriage is not for boys.
@rushed to the hospital were s/he later died.’ This is a common theme in Zambia. When will hospitals ever save victims of violence? There is obviously no capacity to diagnose injuries in Zambia outside Lusaka and even then, there is no brain surgeon to treat head injuries.
When a quarrel ensues, leave. This guy did not possibly aim at killing the wife; he only did it out of anger. When the fury subsided, he couldn’t contain his actions and went for Romeo and Juliet stunt. Please, let’s work on anger management.
It calls for emotional intelligence.
why was a bad man, the guy died for her? Even you Kaizer, your wife don’t enjoy your… she is terrified of that gun you put under her pillow.
