Kenya: Man in wife-sharing saga sacked

{{A Kenyan man who agreed to sign a contract with another to share a woman has been fired from his job.}}

The butcher, Mr Sylvester Mwendwa, 26, who over the weekend openly declared his love for the widow said that his boss fired him after he heard the story.

Mr Mwendwa was not shy to reiterate his love for the woman saying: “I love her for real and I was ready to do anything for her even if it meant sharing her with another man,” even as he claimed that his life was in danger after receiving threatening messages.

After their relationship with Joyce Wambui and another man went public, Mr Mwendwa has now gone into hiding, fearing for his life.

“I cannot go back home because I do not feel safe, I know Wambui is hurt, but you can never joke with a woman; she is capable of doing anything” he said on Monday in an interview with the Nation.

He said his love for Wambui was so deep that he could go to the extent of sharing the love with another man by signing an agreement.

“I have been living with this woman for more than four years as man and wife according to African traditions. The only thing that I had not done is pay bride price, but I have fulfilled all her needs,” he said.

Mr Mwendwa further revealed that he had been taking care of Wambui’s twins for years in addition to renting a one-room house for her. The children, he said, call him father.
