For a couple of weeks now, gossip newspapers, gossip blogs and even some main stream media houses have carried stories about Mr and Mrs Mbasha. We purposely stayed out of it because there was no concrete evidence or we just couldn’t get to the bottom of it with reliable sources.
It turns out, just like in any other marriages, love is not always enough. There come a time when if all you depended on is/was love, you realize probably you should have checked in a secret room in a museum. You may have to depend on extreme prayers, tolerance, family and friends support and self-assurance of life and its purpose. Theirs had not only the commotions but life was on the line. When a relationship gets physical, it is always advised to step aside. Rather run if you have energy to run. According to Flora[see the video below], Emmanuel had acted as if the devil was making his mind a dance floor. He acted tormented.
Before this ordeal,to many folks, Mr and Mrs Emmanuel Mbasha was an ideal marriage. She is a successful gospel artist and he was doing a good job of managing her. They were a happy couple…or so it seemed. Theirs was somewhere over the rainbow. If you had called them to a boardroom, you’d expect it to be only smiles and chuckles and nothing like a depressed salesman whose income depended solely on commission and he hasn’t sold anything yet.
From different sources [we can now rely on them], things had stopped looking glittery. He had “issues”. The cloud nine “honeymoon” was over. There was no strawberries picking anymore. Thorns had invaded the family. In the midst of it all, he made it worse. Ego got mixed with satanic waterfalls and he is now accused of rape. The victim is his 17 years old sister-in-law.
The circumstances of the crime are still not very clear. May be it’s because the case is now with Investigators at Police. However, he did or has done something he shouldn’t have done. He has gone missing. That, in my opinion, was/is like throwing a coin in the ocean and make a nightly effort to locate it. No one knows where he is[ at least not the people who'd turn him in]. He has become a blank LCD screen.
What Emmanuel is forgetting or probably just miscalculating is that his stuff are not just stuff from average Joe [remember Joe The Plumber?]. Through himself or his dear wife, they became celebrities. It’s hard to completely vanish when for years, newspapers and blogs have carried pictures and videos of your supposedly “happy marriage” and life full of sweet berries.
Whether you like it or not, when you are of Mbasha’s calibre, your privacy is invaded from time to time. No wonder, his wife, Flora is now talking to the media as if no PR people have ever called her. Her words are now evidence[ and I believe they can be used in the courts of law]. SEE WHAT FLORA IS SAYING/TALKING ABOUT BELOW
As the society, we shouldn’t act like we are at the top of a skyscraper and anything we throw down may fall. The wind can turn the tides. You and I could face the same paths. But if he did what he did[rape], we should condemn such acts. It is painful,humiliating to the victim and if she doesn’t get proper counseling, such an ordeal can leave a bad taste in her for the rest of her life. She is a victim. Period. There is no such thing as she created the possibilities[ I have seen somewhere online where the supposedly victim is judged for her public image]
We should allow the law to take its course. Wherever Ima [as his wife likes to call him], let him turn himself in and face the music. Of course we shouldn’t condemn him either. He is innocent till proven guilty and not otherwise.
