Zimbabwe: 'Stay in That Lane and Know That the More You Give, the More You Receive', Says Mnangagwa to Chivayo
[New Zimbabwe] PRESIDENT Emmerson Mnangagwa has showered praise on controversial tycoon Wicknell Chivayo, saluting him for his "philanthropy."
Zimbabwe's President Emmerson Mnangagwa has commended philanthropist Wicknell Chivayo for his charitable acts, describing him as a generous individual who continues to bless the community. Mnangagwa's remarks came during a national event in Harare, where he urged Chivayo to maintain his charitable lifestyle. Despite Chivayo's controversial reputation and lifestyle, which includes frequent high-end travel, Mnangagwa maintains that he is a philanthropist and has challenged anyone with evidence of wrongdoing to bring it to the Zimbabwe Anti-Corruption Commission (ZACC) or police.
Chivayo's proximity to the President has raised questions, with Chivayo often seen in close contact with Mnangagwa's aides and security details. Despite past investigations by ZACC, Mnangagwa's praise for Chivayo ensures he is now considered untouchable.
