A 25-year-old Kwekwe-based Zimdancehall artiste, Dollar Vibes, was stabbed to death on Friday following a misunderstanding with his former wife.
Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) spokesperson in Midlands Province, Inspector Emmanuel Mahoko confirmed the death of the artiste, whose real name is Gilbert Foya.
Insp Mahoko said the tragic incident occurred early morning on Friday at Mbizo Shopping Centre. He said:
The victim, Gilbert Foya, a man aged 25 died after he was stabbed all over the body by another unknown man for assaulting his ex-wife.
Insp Mahoko said Foya and his ex-wife Chipo Phiri, (24) were drinking beer at Mbizo Nightclub.
A misunderstanding arose between the estranged couple over the upkeep of their three-year-old baby and the two then went outside the night club trying to solve the matter. Added Insp Mahoko:
While outside, it is said that Gilbert Foya was seen assaulting Chipo Phiri and a man disembarked from a nearby black Honda Fit armed with a knife.
He charged toward Foya and allegedly stabbed him several times all over the body before driving away.
