In a shocking turn of events, a court case between Compassion Junior School owner Pastor Asmeri Jeffreys and her former headmaster, David Garudzo, took an unexpected detour when the landlord appeared demanding unpaid rent of US$120. Because, you know, nothing says “drama” like a rent dispute in the middle of a ritual allegations scandal.
Garudzo claims Pastor Jeffreys ordered him to draw blood from pupils’ fingers for ritual purposes, which Pastor Jeffreys vehemently denies. Garudzo quit after just one month, citing the alleged ritual requests as the reason. Meanwhile, Pastor Jeffreys says Garudzo’s allegations are baseless and meant to tarnish her school’s reputation. “If his allegations were true, parents could have descended on me long back,” she said.
The plot thickens! Garudzo claims Pastor Jeffreys took two of his shirts, fueling his fears of ritualistic motives. Pastor Jeffreys, however, says she took the shirts because she sewed them for Garudzo to look better at work. “I took them because I am the one who sewed them with the intention of dressing my school head to look better,” she explained. Talk about a fashion intervention!
As the court date gets pushed to June 16, Garudzo feels intimidated by the landlord’s sudden appearance. “Pastor Jeffreys is the one who was paying for my rentals,” said Garudzo. “She wanted to make a counter attack with the intention of delaying me from attending the court.” Pastor Jeffreys, on the other hand, wants to attend a church function in Domboshava. Priorities, anyone?
The court officials reportedly failed to locate the documents, leading to the postponement. Garudzo, who is also a pastor, is seeking a protection order against Pastor Jeffreys. The case is set to continue on June 16, with both parties expected to present their arguments.
In the midst of all this drama, one thing’s clear: this feud is far from over. Stay tuned for more updates on this juicy saga!
