High Court affirms Limpopo marriage validity
The Star
|August 08, 2025
THE Limpopo High Court in Polokwane ruled against a man who disputed the existence of his marriage despite paying lobola and going to church to bless the union.
The relationship between the couple began in December 2013. In April 2016, the husband sent a letter to the wife’ family to initiate lobola negotiations. Despite the letter being presented as evidence, the man challenged its authenticity.
The wife told the court that after her family received the letter, both families met and the agreed amount was R25 000 but the man’s family paid R10 000.
