Hazel Mangwiro plans to stay celibate until her boyfriend leaves prison. The 23-year-old woman made this promise when courts sentenced Taurai Vanhuvaone for pretending to be a doctor. She attended every court hearing and cried during the legal proceedings. Mangwiro calls Vanhuvaone the love of her life despite his criminal conviction. The young woman believes their relationship can survive his jail time.
Mangwiro says their first intimate moment after his release will be special. She wants this experience to represent their commitment and shared struggles. The woman admits people might think she acts foolish because of her age. Mangwiro met Vanhuvaone last July when they rode the same public transport. Their first date happened at the airport where he expressed his romantic feelings.
Vanhuvaone received five and half years for fraud and impersonation charges. He pretended to work as a medical doctor for two years and cheated patients. The fake doctor also offered phony nursing jobs at Mpilo Central Hospital. Courts suspended two years of his sentence if he pays back victims. Vanhuvaone must serve three and half years behind bars.
