Mother Marrying Her Son After Getting Pregnant(Photo)

Wonders shall never end...A woman has caused uproar with an unflinching decision to marry her own son who she had been dating shamelessly over a period of three years.

The mother, Betty Mbereko is set to marry her son saying no other woman is entitled to sleep with him. Mrs Mbereko, who is now six months pregnant and expecting her son’s child, and her grandchild had been a widow for the past 12 years and has been living with her 23-years-old son Farai Mbereko.

She confirms that she is six month pregnant and that she has decided it is better to “marry” her son

because she does not want to marry her late husband’s young brothers, whom she says are coveting her.

Betty stunned a village court in Zimbabwe last week when she said the affair with her son had begun three years earlier, according to Zimbabwe Today.

She 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 is 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.

Her son, Farai Mbereko, said he was more than prepared to marry his mother and would pay off the ilobola balance (assumably bride price) his father had left unpaid to his grandparents.

In a swift reaction, an elder Nathan Muputirwa says: “We cannot allow this to happen in our village, mashura chaiwo aya, (this is a bad omen indeed)”.
