In a shocking display of violence and drama, two women were caught on camera fighting over a man on Nyanda Street, KwaNobuhle, near Kariega on Sunday afternoon. The altercation, which drew a crowd of onlookers, was sparked by a love triangle that quickly turned sour.
According to eyewitnesses, the two women, who were both romantically involved with the same man, got into a heated argument over their shared love interest. The situation escalated quickly, with the women engaging in a physical fight.
The object of their affection, donning a green outfit, was seen fleeing the scene, leaving his two girlfriends to duke it out. When questioned by the Daily Kasi team, he showed little remorse for his actions, stating, “I don’t have time for nonsense. Let them fight over me. I’ll take the win.”
A friend of the women, wearing white shorts, attempted to intervene and separate the combatants. However, her efforts were met with resistance, and she was heard shouting, “Let’s chase that dog and Moer him! We’ll show him flames!”
Yoliswa Zendile (45) Told Daily Kasi News “The women were not only upset with each other but also with their shared boyfriend, who they felt had disrespected them”
The incident has raised concerns about the prevalence of violence and toxic relationships in the community. Many have taken to social media to condemn the actions of the women and the man involved, with some calling for greater accountability and respect in relationships.
Nosipho Matyeni (45) said “It’s disturbing to see women fighting over a man who clearly doesn’t respect either of them, “We need to do better as a society and promote healthier relationships.”said Nosipho.
The incident has also sparked a wider conversation about the need for education and awareness about healthy relationships, communication, and conflict resolution.
Xoliswa Vena (30) said “We need to teach our young people that relationships should be built on mutual respect, trust, and communication, not violence and possessiveness.”
Community leader said ” We have to pick up the pieces and wonder what could have been done to prevent such a violent altercation. As for the man at the centre of the controversy, it remains to be seen whether he will face any consequences for his actions. One thing is certain, however: the incident has left a lasting impact on the community and serves as a stark reminder of the importance of promoting healthy relationships and respect for all individuals involved.” Said community leader.
