A prominent Gauteng businessman has been ordered by the court to return a posh vehicle he took from his wife and gave to his mistress and popular
social media influencer, Mihlali Ndamase.
The businessman, who cannot be named for legal reasons, separated from his wife a few years ago and is thawing in the warm hands of the ravishing You Tuber.
The order was obtained by the wife at the Joburg High Court on January 24 after complaining that Ndamase was cruising around in the multi-million-rand road monster her husband bought her as a gift a few years ago.
The order, which we have seen, decreed that the husband should return the Range Rover he seized from his wife within two days from the date on which the order was granted.
“The respondent is to return the Range Rover Autobiography (2020 Model) to the applicant within two days from date of this order,” reads the order.
The well-known tycoon was also ordered to pay for the costs of maintenance and repairs of the vehicle and of her other posh car – a Range Rover Sport.
He was also ordered to pay the balloon payment of the Range Rover Sport to the BMW financial services within 30 days from the date of the order.
The entrepreneur was also ordered to pay R156 000 a month towards the maintenance of his wife and children on the first day of every month.
The order also stipulates that he should also pay an undisclosed amount for his wife’s and children’s medical aid.
The businessman also has to pay rates and services, water and electricity in the rented property occupied by his wife and children. The order also forced him to pay a deposit of the rented property where his wife and children stay and pay over R1.7-million for the legal costs she incurred during the litigation.
“The respondent shall pay to the applicant a contribution towards her legal costs in the sum of R1 716 083 within 14 days from date of this order, payable into the trust account of the applicant’s attorney,” reads the order.
In the court papers we have seen, the woman said her husband had ignored her repeated requests to return the vehicle, which she wants to use as transport to work and ferry her children to school.
The woman said the businessman bought her the car on November 25 2020 as a gift for their wedding anniversary. She said she decided to give her older car, a Range Rover Sport 5.5 Dynamic, which is in her name, to his father to run his errands with.
“As stated elsewhere in this affidavit, the Range Rover Autobiography that was given to me as a gift was snatched away from me by (name withheld) and given to his girlfriend to use. He actually vindictively took my car away from me and gave it to Ndamase to use, and I do not have a vehicle to use,” read the papers.
The woman said the businessman allegedly cheated on her after their union with more than five women before enjoying an affair with Ndamase. She said he first cheated on her in 2009.
She said she arrived in their rented cluster in Bassonia Rock, south of Johannesburg, after visiting her parents in Soweto and caught him naked in bed with another woman.
She said she vacated the property and returned to her parental home but went back to his arms after he apologised and promised to change his straying ways.
She said the businessman two-timed her again in 2010 with another woman after they moved to their new home in Bedfordview. She said he again apologised for double-crossing her and promised to marry her as a sign of showing his commitment, and true to his word, the businessman paid lobola for her in two separate tranches in 2011 to become husband and wife.
But she said her husband cheated on her again after they purchased their new home in Aspen Hills, south of Joburg, in 2012. Ndamase hung-up when we contacted her for comment.
