He doesn't love his children

Written by Cheesa from the blog Cheesa Chat on 08 Nov 2010
Favourite this post


So I come across this Drum magazine dated 04 November 2010 with Winnie Khumalo and her daughter, Retha on the cover. I didn't buy it coz the cover was not that interesting to me but when I saw it from a friend I decided to borrow it. There is this article of Peter Sephuma aka Miles on Rhythm City and Macks Papo aka Ivan Chinawa on Rhythm City. 

When I saw them in this mag I thought they are chatting about their roles in Rhythm City. But it turns out they are talking about their friendship of more than 20 years and mostly about their experiences with women. They are so open about their experiences with women especially Peter Sephuma to a point were I was amazed by some of his statements. Without writing the full article here let me share some of the statements he made.

Peter Sephuma says to Drum magazine he had two wives. The first wife is Fedile Sephuma and the second one is Pumla Hopa, Isidingo's executive producer. He had a divorce with Pumla Hopa last year. He says in the article, he met his wife Fedile Sephuma when he was going out with Fedile's friend but when Fedile's friend introduced him to Fedile he knew Fedile would be the mother of his children. This was after Peter had a divorce with Nomsa Nene (who was the presenter of the game show Zama Zama) after he was accused of rape.

So basically Fedile Sephuma went out with her friend's man, I just wonder what that friend thought of both of them, Peter Sephuma and Fedile Sephuma. Anyway he says with Pumla Hopa it was love at first sight. Peter admits "there is no woman who doesn't have an issue with being in a polygamous marriage. They just learn to deal with it".

Now he amazes me when he talks about his children saying he doesn't regret his children - only the legitimate ones that is. He has three daughters with Fedile Sephuma and two sons with Pumla Hopa, one of them is the one playing Neo in Isidingo. Peter admits he has seven children out of wed-lock. This is what he says about them.

"I'm a sucker for kids but the ones I don't love are the ones I didn't agree to make. I don't want to know about those children. I believe a man shouldn't be forced into a family relationship just because he was having a fling and the woman decided to stop preventing the pregnancy".

This got my eyes wide open when I read it. This statement amazed me really, the fact that he doesn't love his children just because he didn't agree to make them. Why he didn't lay charges of rape if he was forced by these women to have sex with them? Why was he not responsible enough to use protection if he didn't want to have kids with these women? It amazes me to find that there are still man who blame woman for not preventing when a woman falls pregnant knowing that there are also condoms that a man can use to prevent pregnancy.
 

And now he is taking out all his anger with these women to his children saying he doesn't love them and he doesn't want to know about them. He is not even afraid to say this on a national magazine. But the fact that he doesn’t loves those children won't change the fact that he is the father to those children. Even though he doesn't love these children and not involved in raising them he does pay maintenance. This is what he says to Drum,

"I don't mind paying but the children must know their mothers forced me into that situation. The children I wanted grew up with me and they are Fedile's three girls and Pumla's two boys. I wanted them and I chose to have them with these women".

Haibo Peter Sephuma keeps on saying he was "forced" I don't understand how does an old man like him gets forced to have children. I really don't get this "they forced me." statement really. I am trying to understand how these women forced Peter to have children with them. Did they perhaps pull his pants down and forced him to have sex with them or they told him to not use protection or what. Even if that’s the case he should have said no or lay rape charges if those women were powerful enough to force him to have sex with them. 
 

He also reveals in Drum that he was accused of rape twice but he was found not guilty after the first woman admitted she lied about him being the father of her unborn child. The other woman withdrew the charges. Here's Peter's message to young man especially celebrities.

"I want to warn young men, especially celebrities, to look out for themselves. Women are very tricky. I've ended up hurting my family because woman tricked me into sleeping with them and having kids. Women will intentionally fall pregnant because they think that’s the one way to keep a man. My advice is, don't let your vices destroy your family. I've ended up in trouble because of womanising - it's thrown me into serious problems where I really hurt my family and my children".

Hayi shem I would agree with Peter on that last part of his message only if he was man enough to admit his mistakes and stop blaming women saying they “forced” him to have kids with them and that they are tricky. Hayi no something is wrong with this man. Now he is playing victim now that he realises his actions have hurt his family and children but when he was having a nice time he didn't think about his family and children, haikhona.

He has three daughters with Fedile Sephuma and two sons with Pumla Hopa, one of them is the one playing Neo in Isidingo. 
That boy cannot act!!!!!!! They were just pushing it and poor script writers had to write the boy in the storyline because is the boss.
I'm a sucker for kids but the ones I don't love are the ones I didn't agree to make.
He must be ashamed of himself.
I don't understand how does an old man like him gets forced to have children.
That's what I am battling to understand.
I want to warn young men, especially celebrities, to look out for themselves. Women are very tricky. I've ended up hurting my family because woman tricked me into sleeping with them and having kids.
The miniute you unzip your pants and throw your underwear on the floor and put your schlong in there without any protection, you should know what should happen later and be accountable for your pleasures!!!!!!!!
Women will intentionally fall pregnant because they think that’s the one way to keep a man. My advice is, don't let your vices destroy your family.
It is true that some women think falling preggies will make the relationship last forever and that is completely a myth. If you do that and the relationship doesn't work out, the man will walk away and to teach you a lesson, he will completely take care of his child and you wouldn't even hurt him by taking him to courts and o tla swaba wa pona. On the latter paragraph,  you can only let something to destroy your family.
only if he was man enough to admit his mistakes and stop blaming women
I'm puzzled that such a gogo like him still blames other people for his sexual escapades.

he should have used condoms to prevent all those pregnancies. this old man thinks he is "it".  i always complained about drum only featuring gen actors but i thik its better than reading something this old man.  i wonder what his coleagues thought. Phela this was not wise.

I was so disgusted when I read the magazine, he has lost the little bit of respect I had for him. I kept asking myself, did ALL the women force him to impregnate them as he put it, in al those relationships he was JUST a victim? 

I actually felt sorry for the kids coz they did not choose to be born in that situation, Because he says he only contribute financially to their lives, i am sure they felt and they know that he does not love them but for him to go to a NATIONAL magazine and declare that he does not love them is so nauseating, * pukes* . If he has issues with the mothers for trying to trap him, he should in no way try to take it out on the kids. Poor kids. Peter is a selfish asshole, guys like him should not be given an opportunity to be fathers. He should be ashamed of himself.

I get more and more angry coz I know exactly how it feels to grow up with an absent father .

rili dis guy is stupid sis maan, once u put ur thing there  without condom u r @ risk of contracting aids nd pregnancy. how  could drum publish such nonsense hai maan y do they encourange matlakala a buing ke rre yo mare? 

i mean for GOd sake he is a celebrity he is abusing us as woman nd he gets away with it? i honestly demand an apology coz this sound more like u asked for rape by wearing a mini skit huh. he has no respect 4 woman kolobe e sis maan ena ws he a planned child him self? u cant say bad things abt other people nogal on media bathong he must take resposibility of his actions money alone it's nt enough hw can he love 5 kids were else he has more dan that.  the kids he doent want now might b the next big thing in the future he will come running nd claiming gore are his kids. i think this woman shud take him to court nd sue de hell out of him. 

i'm rili disapointed with drum for publishing and disrespecting woman involed nd kids. what abt the their side of story mara one thing for sure abt man they will make promises tsa legodimo le lefatshe wen they r inlove sis drum nd ur frnd MILES

hahaha.. true pele... true.. There's a biological explanation to that too. something about the sperms when they stay longer in the veins... during the act.. they kind of get tired and when they have to reach for the goal... they are too tired...

...And with the two minute noodles its straight to the point first time around, hence instant pregnancy. Futhi people like this.. anyway.. #lemmeshutup

For someone who has been in this business for as long as this man has, you would think he knows a bit of public relations and what can and shouldnt be said.

How do you say something like this mara?? So what if you dont love your children? why are you telling the world? It's so true when they say when someone is quiet it's easy to mistake them as wise.. until they open their mouth and expose themselves.

If this was coming from a young boy who is just about to finish matric, it would make sense. But a grown ass man who is supposed to be in the league ya bo Shona Ferguson... this is soooo embarrassing.

I was totally disgusted when I read their article in the magazine. How you can 'proudly' proclaim not to love your own children and say you were forced into having those kids is truly shameless. For his sake,which is unlikely,I hope his illegitimate children did not read the magazine and there will never come a point in his life where he'll need help from them.

In my family ... If a woman was ever seen with one of the boys ... and then claims he is the father ... we default to the fact that we know he knows her ... He is responsible ...

He will take care of .. and provide for her needs through the pregnancy
If he is denying paternity  ... DNA test at birth ... no excuses ... if he is the father ... he will apologise personally to everyone in her family and ours

We don't play!

So our boys are very careful where to stick it!
