http://bountycpa.go2cloud.org/SH7wRWhat does the law call this kind of marriage again? A 40-year-old woman, Betty Mbereko is set to marry her 23-year-old son Farai Mbereko. Mbereko who hails from Mwenezi in Masvingo is already 6-months pregnant for his son.
She claims she decided it is better to "marry" her son because she does not want to marry her late husband's younger brothers, whom she says are coveting her. Betty stunned a village court last week when she said the affair with her son had begun three years earlier.
Mbereko who has been a widow for the past 12-years said after spending a lot of money sending Farai to school following the death of her husband, she felt she had a right to his money and no other woman was entitled to it.
"Look, I strove alone to send my son to school and no one helped me. Now you see that my son is working and you accuse me of doing something wrong. Let me enjoy the products of my sweat," she told the village court council.
