Gospel singer Dube seeks second divorce

Dube last performed here in 2009 at the Blue Tree where he attracted a huge crowd. The show organiser then, Thatayaone Matlapeng told Showbiz they paid R65, 000 for the super star and R30, 000 for another star, Sechaba, who shared the stage with Dube.

According to South African publication, Sunday World, Dube alleges that he lost audio in one ear after his wife stabbed him in the ear with a car key during one of their violent encounters. The vocalist alleges that his wife beat him up on three separate occasions last year alone.

Last year South African newspapers reported that Dube's wife beat him up after he went to collect cookies from his ex-wife, with whom he has children. Things came to a head on August 8 last year, when he says she 'drubbed' him with fists and stabbed him in the ear with a car key. 'I got injured and my eardrum is not working (sic),' he says in the docket. Benjamin says he now locks himself up in his bedroom because Thabile is after his life. Meanwhile, Thabile has also filed a counter suit, demanding P700, 000 from Dube for allegedly accusing her of witchcraft in front of his church.
