 ZIMBABWEAN COUPLE DEPORTED OVER SECRET BURIAL OF CHILD IN BOTSWANA A Zimbabwean couple has been deported from Botswana after secretly burying their child without notifying authorities. Motilinah Mpofu and Christopher Ncube were convicted on Thursday of concealing a death after they allegedly dug a grave for their child in the dead of night. The Gaborone court heard the child had died suddenly. Instead of reporting the death to police, health officials, or traditional leaders, the couple quietly buried the youngster and hoped no one would find out. But the secret did not stay buried for long.   Police moved in and arrested the pair. In sentencing, the court ordered that the couple be taken to the Plumtree Border Post for deportation to Zimbabwe.  Top Botswana lawyer Winnie Masitha who offered the couple free legal representation during the trial, confirmed the deportation to BTV News.

Cleric Commends Mothers Doggedness to keeping Homes 

By David Okpala/Stella Okpala

Rev. Fr. Festus Okoye on a visiting mission, and the overseer of St. Raphael's Hospital, Akpo has commended mothers doggedness to keeping homes.

He made the commendation in a homily during the  thanksgiving Mass of mothers, at St. Paul's Catholic Church, Akpo, Aguata LGA, on March 26 as they celebrate their mothers' day.

The cleric wondered where/what the society could have been if not for mothers doggedness to keeping homes.

"Women are indeed strong. They toil all night, sometimes without sleep to keeping us as babies. Their closeness to us as babies, then children to adolescence, shapes the society. However, mothers needed to do more.

"Their efforts are there for everyone to see, yet the society is not at her best."

He made it clear that homes are the small unit of the church and the church, a unit of the society.

"So, if we get it right from homes, the church will be better, likewise the society."

Fr Okoye enjoined fathers to remain supportive to their wives as priests to their families.

"Priests are not known for drunk to stupor, keeping late at night and frightening their children without providing for them.

"Priests do not consume opium that intoxicate, neither do they engage in drug abuse of any kind. "No Christian father should do these things as to remain good priests to their homes."

The cleric urged everyone to see challenges of life as part of life itself and not death sentence.

"It is in these challenges that the strength of God is determined.

"Do not run to the devil when there are challenges of life. God has allowed these challenges to the glory of his holy name. Only remain faithful, he will meet you at the point of your needs.'' (MOI)
