Jail him - Mother tells court as maintenance war deepens

She says years of unpaid maintenance and repeated defiance of court orders have left her with no reason to believe he will voluntarily provide for their children. Nonofo failed to comply with last year’s Court of Appeal (CoA) order which directed him to pay child maintenance arrears of P340, 500.

Ontlametse later confronted his ex-husband with contempt proceedings that resulted in the issuing of a warrant of civil imprisonment which Nonofo is now fighting in his application for stay of execution.
