The Mandikonza and Mavhunga families were left stunned at Chief Saunyama's court in Nyanga North, Zimbabwe last Friday when a female teenager 'possessed' with the spirit of the late Tanganza Mavhunga demanded reparations and threatened to ruthlessly deal with the Mandikonzas.

The late Tanganza, who was married to the late Jack Mandikonza, 'manifested' herself through a female teenager as she chronicled how she was cold-bloodedly murdered by her husband.

The possessed teenager apparently walked for more than 10km from her home and went straight to sit in the ruins of the homestead where the deceased Jack Mandikonza used to stay with his late wife, Tanganza.

As she narrated Tanganza's ordeal at the hands of her husband during the court session last Friday, the possessed teenager pledged to show the Mavhunga and Mandikonza families the shallow grave where her remains were buried by her late husband.

"My relatives, you ought to know what happened. One day I packed my clothes and went away from Jack Mandikonza's homestead.

"As I was walking, about a few metres from the homestead, Jack followed me. He grabbed my hand and demanded that we should go back home. I refused. Since it was dark, he instantly took a knife and cut the lower parts of my breasts and went on to cut off my private parts.

"My relatives, I beg you not to touch anything that belongs to the Mandikonzas. My husband's brothers Cosmas, Webster, Lazarus and Oliver bought cars and livestock after they used my body parts for rituals.

"I will wreck havoc very soon in the Mandikonza family and I plead with you my relatives not to touch anything that belongs to the Mandikonza family.

"When you are ready, I can guide you to the place where Jack buried me near Nyanga Downs between two big rocks. That is where I have been lying since Jack murdered me. They made a fortune out of my blood, but I will deal with them," fumed the possessed teenager.

The deceased woman's aunt, who also attended the court session last Friday, said Jack Mandikonza was the one who later approached the Mavhunga family saying his wife Tanganza had disappeared.

"We were made to believe that Tanganza disappeared. In fact, it was Jack, the husband, who came to our elders in the Mavhunga family, saying his wife was nowhere to be seen. However, our fathers did not accept it and have always suspected foul play.

"For years, we were made to believe that Tanganza eloped to a Malawian lover and never came back. However, it seems as if chickens are coming home to roost because several unexplainable things have been happening in our family.

“She (Tanganza) appeared in my dreams recently bitterly complaining about our (Mavhunga family)'s silence over her disappearance," she said.

In his ruling, Chief Saunyama adjourned the matter to next Friday after summoning the Mandikonza family representatives.
