A woman in Kwekwe, Zimbabwe is receiving medical attention at Kwekwe Hospital after attempting to take her own life by consuming poison upon discovering that her husband had secretly married another woman.
The husband, Forbes Degwa, a senior manager at a local company, reportedly paid the bride price for his second wife without informing his first wife, Alice.
Forbes formalized his union with Angeline Zvikomborero Mujanja on December 14 of last year, a revelation that left Alice devastated.
Just this morning, Angeline, the second wife, reportedly informed Alice about the bride price payment which triggered Alice’s drastic decision.
Alice, deeply hurt by the betrayal, drank poison in an attempt to end her life.
