Former Zesco managing director Rodney Sisala allegedly assaulted his wife by clamping her left leg with a gate.
Eunice Sisala told the court that on 14th may 2011 while at her matrimonial home in full view of her aunties and cousins Mr. Sisala assaulted her while asking her to leave the house.
She testified that she sustained a swollen wrist and bruises on her left leg but that medical examination revealed that she suffered multiple body injuries.
This is in a case in which Mr. Sisala has been dragged to court for assault occasioning actual bodily harm of his wife Eunice.

This is utter nonsense – if Mr Sisala wants out of the marriage, then HE should leave the house! How dare he force Mrs Sisala to leave the house – she made that house into their home, the home he enjoyed coming to after many stressful days at work. It is Mr Sisala who should move out – what an abusive man!
If men want to leave their wives, then they should move out, NOT the woman!

The woman put her leg on the gate when he tried to close it after pushing her out. I thought it was a fresh case. I remember this case some in May last year. The problem Sisala did was marrying this wife whom I heard stories of how she used to shag some tenants to Sisala’s many flats whilst he was busy in Lusaka at Zesco. By the way thats not his first wife.
Shut your Asses up...!!!

Eunice is paying back,how could you start going with ur best friends husband and immediately after Sisala`s wife died she jumped into the marriage.Who knows maybe eunice is just reminding Rodney of the best wife that he once had.Eunice has suspected Rodney of having killed his wife thru witch craft dat bulshit maybe she knows it better,or that she could be the one involved.What goes around comes around.Eunice must pay and she has not paid yet.

@Janet c,
If as you imply the marriage has broken down then it is the WOMAN who has to vacate the house because she was just a GLORIFIED MAID!!!
1) the MAN put a roof over that woman
2) the MAN put food on the table for the woman
3) the MAN ensured the woman looked good: hair treatment,body lotions etc
…I am implying this based on your suggestion that she was/is “stay home mum” and/or housewife

January 19, 2012 at 4:11 pm
@ Munalian – clearly you were left behind in the 20th century! If you cared to join us in 21st century marriage, then you would know, that when divorce happens the wife is entitled to 50% – even the magistrates court makes these decisions nowadays.
It doesn’t matter who cheated, the fact is – a man may put the roof, buy the food, buy the clothes, etc – BUT it is a woman who makes that house a ‘home’. An oasis where men come back to relieve themselves of the pressures of work and of providing for the family. Whilst it is difficult to quantify a woman’s contribution to a man’s success, the fact is when Mr Sisala was toiling at Zesco, the wife made sure he had a nice clean house to come to, a nice bed to sleep on, food on the table, children taken care of.
So when a man decides he wants out, then HE should pack his bags and get the hell out!!!
Moses Mubanga
January 19, 2012 at 4:12 pm
Knowing Mr Sisala, its honestly very unfortunate that he is being labled all this. He is humble,respectiful and a gentleman of all times.Its a question of women taking advantage of a widowed man with a view of gaining economically and when a man realises that this person did not go into marriage with clean hands,then she looks for a way of embarrassing and milking him. Sadly even the witnesses are her relatives. We need to pray for him and urge him to look up to God.

So behind that soft voice there’s a monster, that’s why the English say ”do not judge a book by its cover”. There’s no excuse, hitting a woman especially ones wife is the worst form of cowardliness. If she was cheating on him the decent action was to just divorce and not assaulting a person who’ve enjoyed plumbing for years, its just pure madness.

Sweet janet c, i’ve been married 4 7yrs. I never in the life of me thought that i wud lay my hands on a woman much less my wife until i got a finger pointed on my forehead daring me to beat her if i were man enough. Jus becoz i told her to cut off some of her friends who were very well known hules in lsk. And now she has started facebooking men. I beat the crap out of her. I always condemn men who touch their women, now i understand, some women want a beating to have a story to tell and label their husband as wife batterers. This thing about women making yo hse a home is a myth. Maids wud cook my favourite bondwe and clean the hse while she spends the whole day at Tand T gym. Wen we separated for a month, she thot i wud not do without her, but nothing changed. Hse was emaculate, my undies were clean, food was good, kids cleaned and taken to school. This was my most peaceful one month in 5yrs. Some women are frm hell.

If a man is no longer interested in a woman or vice versa for some reason, why stick to the other person like a tick? If a woman doesnt want a man, separation is straight forward. But if a man says im fed up of this woman, the man is nearly always ripped off

Iam married now for 10 years with my swity loving wife and have never raised my hand on her neither herself to me. I feel a fight breaks for luck of proper communication and respect for one another in a home. Let God be on the centre of your marriage and everything shall be well with you. Marriage is not all as smooth as the first early stages of it. Many youngmen get blinded with the beauty of a women without considering the heart. Every woman is beautiful and her beauty depends on how his husband takes good care of her.

What’s with everyone making wives look like angel. Its not right to do that to any woman but stop always blaming men. Some of us women have a big part play in the way our husbands react and turn out doing. We think when we get married the effort you made during your girlfriend and boyfriend stage need to stop.and please married women stopped listening to your so called friends . Just because you friend said she did this to the husband you should also do like wise . You not there when she is doingit and so you have no proofm and marry for all the right reason. Some woman are even paying for the own weddings and the man has now become the bride he just shows up. I mean reall . So question is what part has this woman had to ply to get her and her marriage out here?

Here we go again Zambia! Another battery case that’s been dismissed. Just how many times are we going to keep reading articles about men in general beating their wives? And exactly how did his wife mysteriously sustain injuries and the judge claim there was not enough evidence? These people need to start setting an example. Cases like pupils being suspended from school because they threatened a teacher are clear examples of not having enough good role models. We Zambian’s can complain and call these kids names but where are they getting this behaviour from? If it’s okay for a prominet person to do it and get away with it, then they sure feel they can too. Cases like Ruth Mbandu being killed… by the hands of men, yet it’s still going on and will probably still keep going on. Good leaders lead by example! Is this what being a role model is? Let’s start leading and setting examples so that our youth and generations to come will follow.
