Marriage or Deceit: Violet, Melody Trapped in a Tragic Love Triangle

By Loyd Matare

In a shocking tale of love, lies, and heartbreak, two women have found themselves entangled in a complex web of deceit spun by one man, Odson Machona.

At the center of this drama is Melody Mugabe, who unknowingly became embroiled in Machona’s marital affairs.

“I had a relationship with Odson Machona, who claimed to be divorced. He told me that his divorce was finalised in December 2023.

“From January to August, Odson would visit me at my home in Gweru whenever he was off work,” Melody recounts, her voice laced with a mix of emotions.

As their relationship deepened, Melody suggested that Machona introduce her to his family and take her to his home, a gesture that would ultimately expose his deceit.

“Since I have been in a relationship with Machona for a period of time, as a culturally conscious woman, I suggested that he introduces me to his family and take me to his home.

“He arranged for his cousins and sisters to meet me, and we visited his house together. However, upon arrival, I discovered that Odson was still married,” Melody reveals, her words tinged with a sense of betrayal.

Determined to do the right thing, Melody ended their relationship on August 19, 2024.

“I did not want to be a part of destroying another woman’s marriage,” she explains.

Unbeknownst to Melody, Machona’s wife, Violet Svoba, was oblivious to the fact that their relationship had ended. Violet’s life would soon take a drastic turn, as she found herself at the receiving end of Machona’s wrath.

Violet, a resident of Eiffel Flats in Kadoma, recounts the day her world came crashing down.

“My husband, Odson Machona, wants me to make way for his new wife.

“He came home with his new wife, Melody Mugabe, whom he works with at Inkomo Barracks. He assaulted me in front of them,” she says, her voice cracking with emotion.

Despite reporting the incident to the police, Violet’s case has not been addressed in court. The situation took a dire turn on January 3, when she and her children were evicted from their home.

“With all the rain that is pounding Kadoma, it’s tough. They even stripped the roof off the house and removed the doors,” Violet recounts, her eyes welling up with tears.

As the drama unfolds, Melody finds herself at the center of a media storm, with Violet making public allegations that have damaged her reputation.

“I am concerned that these allegations may jeopardize my job, and I am currently dealing with numerous inquiries about this matter. I would like to clear my name and restore my reputation,” Melody pleads.

As the two women navigate this complex web of deceit, one thing is certain – only time will reveal the truth behind Machona’s tangled love life.

However, efforts to get a comment from Odson Machona were futile, as he was not picking up calls up to the time of publication.
