We Can’t Have S*x With Our Spouses – Apiatse Residents Bemoan
Some victims of the Apiatse disaster living in the temporal shelters provided for them by the government have expressed the challenges they face in having conjugal moments with their partners.
According to a handful of them who spoke with UTV, they have had to live for about three weeks without their partners, a situation they say is becoming a problem for them.
One of the women, speaking with UTV, explained that sex is an important factor of marriage and the fact that they have been separated from their partners gives them great worry.
“For the past three weeks, my husband is sleeping somewhere while I also pitch camp in another place and this is becoming very problematic when that should not be the case for married couples. When I feel sexually aroused, what do I do? And the same for him because all these things contribute to a happy marriage so we plead with those concerned to get this problem fixed for us,” she said.
The victims of the Apiate disaster have been housed in tents made available by the government as it works at restoring the town to its former state.
