  1. Bizarre! I wish the story had explained circumstances that lead the wife to grab a nice and stab the hubby all over the body. Or maybe its all up to us to speculate. In this case, my speculation will be that its a new “female knife grabbing and husband stabbing disease” on the loose and that all husbands should watch their backs or sleep with one eye open or check the bottoms of the mattresses before going to bed to make sure theres no knife or dont close your eyes in the shower even if sopo ilekutobola. In short, the story needed more details.

    You are speaking as though you were there, tell us more, did he also have a knife, which could have prompted the lady to stab him in self defence as you claim

    Barotse agreement kekeke

  3. This is what happens when your wife also decides to give you a taste of your own medicine as a sign of love. The results are usually fatal.

  4. # 17 the eye . What makes you say he had it coming….he only had himself to blame? Dont make up stories, the article is very brief and straight forward.

  5. Tribes, that’s why they say they is no insult. The village name is so innocent in Lozi land but in eastern part of the country that means a “dick’.Just as a shallow well in tonga land is called Chikala,in bemba land it’s a “dick”. So who is insulting?

  6. # 18 Motsepe, when a woman reacts the way she did in this particular instance it most likely means the abuse on the part of the husband had gone on for some time now, the woman had been bottling up her anger towards the man for some time until the fateful day when he “ran into her knife”. I’m in no way condoning this event but merely warning all you wife/girlfriend abusers, you will one day taste your bitter medicine seven fold!!

  7. She stabbed him in self defense, let this woman go home. She is obviously an abused woman who finally snapped. Any lawyers here who can defend her pro bono?
