Sithembiso Budzirikawa was arrested after her HR manager called the police and she failed to present a permit for the tortoise.
Sithembiso Budzirikawa wasn’t playing about her money when she allegedly confronted her Human Resources (HR) manager and reportedly threatened to use black magic with a live tortoise she brought to work.
The confrontation at a company in Goromonzi, Zimbabwe, comes after Budzirikawa demanded unpaid wages from her employer. According to the Zambian Observer, court documents revealed the 58-year-old woman allegedly acquired the reptile on Aug. 21 from Chabwino Farm. Budzirikawa whipped out the tortoise at her workplace after the HR manager refused the demand regarding her salary. The employee reportedly had the animal covered in a red floor polish and wrapped in a red cloth with needles attached.
In an Instagram post from Onsite! Africa, Budzirikawa startled her HR manager with her demanding gesture. Instagram users chimed in about the incident and stated that the woman was rightfully due her money.
