Netflix should release a documentary about Wicknell Chivayo
A full audit is needed for the man who turned public gifting into a something else, more than 150 people were handed luxury cars and cash, with the documented total going past US$50 million. Rolls Royces for prophets, Land Cruisers for party structures, Fortuners for church ushers, and birthday lunch money that would fund a small ministry.
The biggest individual beneficiary was Jah Prayzah. Mercedes Benz S500. Range Rover Autobiography. Ford Ranger Platinum. Cash on top of cash. Cars for the band, the dancers, the wife. Chivhayo’s own lists put the singer at the top of the ledger.
The questions write themselves. Where did the money come from? Why were the gifts announced like state events? Who collected, who declined, and what did loyalty cost? In a country where a civil servant’s salary barely covers rent, one man was handing out dealership keys like a hobby.
