MBABANE – A beautiful wife does not come cheap. A lavish wedding ceremony was not the end of it for Pastor Sikhumbuzo Shongwe and his wife Jabu Nkonyane.

On the second day of their union, the bride showered the Shongwe family with gifts. Jabu said the total cost of the gifts summed up to E100 000.

The new Mrs Shongwe first gave her mother-in-law a blanket for what is known as kucela inkhonto. Bishop Nash Shongwe’s wife, Zanele was the first to receive gifts. In addition to the inkhonto blanket, her daughter- in-law also gave her a purple blanket with a matching head scarf, comforter, an 18-litre Defy microwave and a serving tray.

To show appreciation for the gifts, the bishop’s wife mimicked sleeping under the presented blankets.The new Mrs Shongwe also presented her sisters and brothers-in-law. When Bishop Nash was presented with a blanket, a tray, an electric kettle and a blender,   he stood up from his seat and jokingly told spectators that they should leave as the day’s work was done. After the announcement, he went back to his seat and took his presents and put them on his head.
