Facts of the Case

Background

The parties were married from 1998 (customary) and solemnized in 2005, separating in 2018 with three children. They jointly acquired and sold a Greendale property, with disputes arising over whether proceeds were used to build a farmhouse at Wychwood Farm under the land reform programme. The defendant sought 50% share of farm improvements, child maintenance increase from US$80 to US$250, and rehabilitative maintenance of US$3000.
