The drama surrounding the marital woes between struggling city Businessman Micheal Kasawuli and his wife Nalongo Rosemary Nantume could be just beginning rather than about to end.
In a new twist, Nalongo Nantume has owned up to the accusations being levelled against her of having a premarital affair and producing two children outside of marriage.
According to the reports in the media in recent weeks, Nantume is accused of having two children who are not biological Kasawuli’s as per the results from a paternity test carried out amid the marital fight. The two, whose identities remain secret are a 24-year-old man and a girl aged 13 years.
Explaining the circumstances under which she conceived the two children, Nantume faulted her husband for feigning ignorance about the matter yet she had already explained it to him and he agreed to raise the children.
She says she got the visiting child, now 24 when she had escorted her husband to a traditional healer. She says she was too young at the time to resist the temptations of the man of gods and ended up taking his seed with her.
On the other girls who she produced 13 years ago, the mother of 7 notes that like in the first instance, she had wandered in search of spiritual nourishment only that this time it was not at a traditional healer but God at Namugongo martyrs shrine. This time also, the devil engulfed her and ended up falling prey. The result was a female seed that would later sprout into the 13-year-old today.
This time also, she claims she reported the martyr to Mr Kasawuli and the two again agree to sweep the matter under the carpet and raise their child as they normally did.
Nantume is, however, shocked at the dishonesty of her husband for backtracking on his commitment to looking after the children like his own as he committed himself.
Despite the matter surfacing into the public domain, Sulait Kasauli, Samona’s brother revealed that the DNA that put the conversation of the two children’s paternity was conducted eight years ago but it was deemed suitable to be kept a secret.
