The man whose fiancee broke up with him after he paid R70,000 in lobola has confiscated cows and goats from his ex father-in-law’s kraal.
The man from Sishwiliu in Ulundi took drastic action after the father-in-law failed to pay his lobola back as promised on Thursday.
After Thursday’s deadline had passed, Nqaba Mthenjana, 29, went back to his in-laws of the Ngubane family in the village of Nhlophenkulu to demand his lobola from Sunnyboy Ngubane.
But there was no one home.
“He did not answer my calls. He is repeating what he did before. Today I managed to get two cattles and three pregnant goats. I am going to sell them and will take my matter to small claims court to force him to pay what is due to me,” Mthenjana told Scrolla.Africa.
The neighbours watched from their houses as Mthenjana loaded his vehicle with the Ngubane family’s remaining livestock and drove away.
Once again Mthenjana was accompanied by the police when he went to the Ngubane’s family home on Thursday.
Scrolla.Africa called Ngubane for a comment but he said he was unavailable to comment.
