“It is now one month since my wife went away and I don’t know where she stays only to meet her in court today,
“I want my wife to come back home so that we can keep the child together. I want her to change because she also drinks too much beer, when I give her money she buys other things,” Mambo said.
But in her defence Susan refused to reconcile saying she could not go back home because she was not ready.
“I will only go back if he changes his behaviour and accept his status. He refuses to take ARVs I am scared my health is at stake,.
“He even chases anyone who comes to render help and whenever I am taking mine he chases me outside saying he doesn’t want to see the medicine,” Susan said.
In submission, Mambo said he was willing to change, and asked his wife to always accompany him to the hospital of which she refused saying she could not be escorting a grown up man to the hospital.
