In a surprising turn of events, the First Lady, Auxillia Mnangagwa, has expressed her astonishment at the growing trend of women taking the lead in infidelity and causing the breakdown of marriages. She shared her thoughts during a gathering focused on the Afrikana Family Humanism Programme, which aims to tackle the alarming rates of violence and divorce nationwide.
Mnangagwa emphasized the critical role that families play as the backbone of society. She stressed the importance of ensuring families remain strong, united, and nurturing. However, she acknowledged that the nation is facing many challenges threatening the sanctity of marriage and the essence of family life.
The First Lady revealed that her office has received disturbing reports through the toll-free line 575, where women are reporting cases of Gender-Based Violence. Shockingly, women, who have long been victims of abuse, are now being reported as the primary culprits of infidelity. Mnangagwa highlighted the need to support women in breaking free from the negative behaviors they are adopting.
She expressed deep concern over the reports of violent crime and high divorce rates across the nation, which she attributes to the breakdown of the family structure. Mnangagwa is actively working to help restore the strength and unity of families.
However, she also pointed out men's role in this predicament. Mnangagwa noted that there is often a breakdown of communication in marriages. She shared that women try to look good and do their best for their husbands, but sometimes, men fail to provide the love and support their wives deserve. She mentioned that, at times, husbands come home heavily intoxicated and violent, further straining the relationships.
Mnangagwa made these remarks while addressing a gathering of women and men in Bulawayo. Her words shed light on the complex issues facing families in the country and the urgent need for action to address the growing problems of infidelity, violence, and divorce.
