A BORROWDALE Brook brick-layer was yesterday hauled to the maintenance court by his wife claiming US$250 for the upkeep of their five minor children.
This came to light at the Harare civil court where Memory Godzi was demanding US$250 for the upkeep of their five minor children accusing P Salatiel of neglecting his children.
“Your worship, I don’t have a stable job since I earn a living as a vendor.
“I realise about US$30 per month which is not enough for the upkeep of our five minor children,” said Memory.
“The children need US$100 for food and groceries, US$100 for school fees, US$50 for uniforms,US$30 for transport fees and US$30 hospital bills therefore my net income is not enough for all these expenses.”
