Zimbabwe Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai’s former lover who tried to stop his wedding a fortnight ago says that he dumped her through a text message.
Ms Nosipho Shilubane launched an unsuccessful court application to stop Mr Tsvangirai’s wedding on September 15, to Ms Elizabeth Macheka, claiming he had also promised to marry her.
Although her appeal was dismissed for lack of merit, the Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) leader’s marriage licence was cancelled after another woman, Ms Locardia Karimatsenga Tembo, convinced the court that he was customarily married to her.
Mr Tsvangirai, 60, opted for a customary union with Ms Macheka, 35, amid calls for him to be arrested for allegedly lying under oath.
Ms Shulubane, 35, told a South African television station eNews Chanel Africa (NCA) the Zimbabwean politician should have had the decency to inform her of the reasons he wanted to end the relationship.
“I deserved for him to sit down with me and say; Nosi, this is what is happening,” she said. “That decency I think he owed it to me.
“He is supposed to be an example to other people, young kids.

“At an age of 60, you dump women with SMSes then what do the young ones do?”
Ms Shulubane said she felt used and abused by Mr Tsvangirai, who she met in 2009.
The two enjoyed whirlwind romantic trips to Seychelles, Singapore and Botswana before the relationship ended.
“I received a message from an unknown number that said the relationship was terminated because of distance,” she said.
The woman said the politician ignored her calls and this forced her to resort to the court action to stop the wedding.
Ms Shilubane claims she met the Zimbabwean Premier in September 2009, six months after the death of his wife Susan.
She said Mr Tsvangirai was due to pay her bride price in January, but the Prime Minister claimed he was held up by government business and would only do so in December.
The magistrate ruled that her claims had no merit after the Premier admitted that she was once his girlfriend, but had never promised to marry her.
