MADALA Sipho Nkosi (62) threw a big street party to celebrate his marriage to his nyatsi of two years.
Everybody had a good time – except Josephine, his shocked wife of 21 years! Now she is suffering over her broken marriage while Sipho enjoys his new life with Bongi Mahlangu.
Josephine Nkosi (58) of Tsakane, Ekurhuleni, will never forget 12 December, when a neighbour rushed over to say her husband was getting married “secretly”.
“I knew nothing about it,” she said
Josephine wept while she told Daily Sun that her husband began acting strangely in 2013 after getting his pension money from his workplace.

My Husband Married His Nyatsi In Secret |
“He took his belongings away, little by little. But whenever we spoke, he told me he loved me.” Josephine, who has a daughter (21) with Sipho and lives with Sipho’s 20-year-old son, said she was heartbroken.
“My friend tried to get me to go and stop the wedding, but I refused,” she said.
“He never told me he wanted a second wife. How can he get married without divorcing me? The kids are crying. We are having a black December because they want Christmas clothes and he won’t buy them. But he buys his nyatsi new furniture.”
Josephine said she would take Sipho back: “He is my husband and I still love him.”
Sipho said: “I don’t know what she is talking about.”
When contacted again later, he said: “Josephine is my wife. There is nothing I do that she doesn’t know about.
“If she has complaints, let both of our families meet.”
