A man is on his knees before a local court concerning the situation with his manhood and pleading for salvation of his 32 year old marriage.
He pleads with the court to save him from premature retirement from sexual satisfaction, likely to happen should the court grants his partners plea to end the marriage that has produced nine children.
“Even right now, if the court wants, we can get a male court clerk and go to the bathroom to see how tiny my manhood is compared to when I’m with my wife”, the 51 year old Francis Daka of Linda compound pleaded before the Lusaka Boma Local Court presided over by Justice Martha Tembo.
He added that in the absence of his wife, that his manhood shrinks to toothpick size and would only function in urinating.
Francis Daka of Linda compound cried that ending his 32-year marriage to Grace Mwanza, aged 47, with whom he has nine children, would automatically result in his premature retirement from all sexual duties, especially that the traditional consultant his wife had given the tender to disable his machine had long died and therefore his situation is irreversible.
Grace had approached the court for divorce, complaining that her husband had become used to abusing her even in the presence of the children
But worse, Daka usually locks her outside and occasionally sends her away from home and motor vehicles they bought as a couple
The woman also told the court that Francis had also become cruel to the children of the marriage, at one point he was irritated, leaving one of their children at Luangwa district despite its inclement weather, on a day they were heading to Chipata from Lusaka.

She also ordered Daka to compensate his ex-wife with K15, 000 which should be paid in monthly instalments of K1,000 and child support of K1,000, excluding medical and school requirements.
All the property acquired by the two parties should also be shared in half for each to get their share equally, the judge also ruled.
