Correspondent|Murape, the ex-wife of the late music icon Oliver Mtukudzi has clarified that she has no interest in getting a share of the musician’s estate. Melody emphasised that as she was the one who had divorced Oliver Mtukudzi and as such, she was not entitled to a share of his estate. Melody has been in the limelight of late after she was completely ignored during the funeral and burial proceedings, allegedly at the instruction of Mtukudzi’s widow Daisy. In a candid interview with the daily publication, H-Metro, Melody said,

Vanhu vavakuti ndavakuda zvinhu; ndogoda kukohwa pandisina kurima sei? Kana vanhu varambana ungazono pihwa pfuma yemurume wawakaramabana naye here? Kwete.

What I worked for with Tuku.I got. I don’t want to lie. What he had now, was for him and the one he was now staying with. I’m not that greedy and I don’t even have the power to claim anything from them. Munhu ngaadye zvaakashandirawo.

Melody also said that after her divorce from Mtukudzi she had received the house that they had acquired in Chitungwiza. The other apartment that the couple had acquired in Eastlea had to be sold as both she and Mtukudzi were interested in it.

Let me make it clear, Tuku did not divorce me, but it’s me who surrendered as I was against polygamy. “Tuku was the only husband I knew from the age of 18.
