| Ms Macheka begs Mr Tsvangirai to join her in Borrowdale. |
This was revealed by his wife in an audio recording in possession of The Herald. Ms Macheka built the Borrowdale house among other properties she has in Harare. She argues that the 3-bedroom Highlands house is too small to accommodate the family.
Ms Macheka has begged Mr Tsvangirai to join her in Borrowdale, but her plea has fallen on deaf ears. It has also emerged that Mr Tsvangirai and the extended family do not trust Ms Macheka whom they fear could be a zanu-pf agent planted to destroy the opposition leader’s career.
Ms Macheka is daughter to Zanu-pf politician Mr Joseph Macheka. She is under constant monitoring by the Tsvangirais to an extent of tracking her calls.
On the Highlands mansion, Ms Macheka is heard in the recording saying: “Vakati handisi comfortable imba yako (Borrowdale home) ukamuka wakashatirwa unoti buda mumba mangu. Imba ino iyi ndakaivaka, hoo right, asi imba yenyuwo. Zvekuti ndakaivaka sei kana zvakafamba sei hazvinei nemunhu but pamba pedu. Hapanzi pamba pamai nababa Tsvangirai pano apa?”
She reveals during a family hearing presided over by one of Mr Tsvangirai’s nephews that her husband is scared of losing the Highlands mansion to zanu-pf and would rather live in it than join his wife in Borrowdale.
“Ivo vakanditi ndikabva kuHighlands uko imba inogona kutorwa. Vanhu veZanu-PF vanotora imba kana kuti iwe tama wouya kuHighlands. Highlands ine mabedrooms mangani?”
Ms Macheka argues the house cannot accommodate the whole family considering the number of the children they have between them. Mr Tsvangirai has four and Ms Macheka has three children.
Mr Tsvangirai and Ms Macheka’s two year marriage has technically collapsed and efforts by close relatives to mend it have failed.
Ms Macheka claims Mr Tsvangirai is an unrepentant and ungrateful cheat, who despite failing to consummate their relationship, still tries his luck elsewhere. Herald
