Njoya Tembo's wife slaped with five years imprisonment

Lusaka magistrate Greenwell Malumani  has sentenced   Zambia Association of Musicians (ZAM) president Njoya Tembo's wife Brenda Tembo   to five years imprisonment for assaulting her niece.

Facts before the court are  that Mrs. Tembo beat up her niece with a cooking stick after the girl used a  pressing iron which she was prohibited from using.

Brenda was dragged to court and accused of having burnt her niece with a pressing iron on her chest on October 26, 2016 at their house in Lusaka’s Chalala area.

It was alleged that Brenda had been angered by the girl‘s decision  to use an iron which the couple had stopped her from  using.
