Controversial MDC-T leader, Douglas Mwonzora was yesterday accused of neglecting his nine-year-old son with his ex-lover, Getrude Chuma.
Chuma revealed this before Harare Magistrate Meenal Narotam where she demanded that the opposition party leader should pay US$1 500 monthly for the upkeep of their son.
She said Mwonzora could afford the amount claiming that apart from being a political party president, he had a farm in Nyanga and was a director at a law firm and practised as a lawyer.
Chuma also revealed that he persisted that the minor be enrolled at a private school despite failing to pay school fees in full.
Narotam granted Chuma her application in Mwonzora’s absence ordering the politician to pay US$500 monthly as maintenance.
He was also ordered to pay his son’s school fees in full.
