WATCH: Wicknell Chivayo Buys Maybach and Range Rover Worth R9.9 Millon

Controversial businessman Wicknell Chivayo is back in the spotlight — and flaunting serious wealth — just days after denying allegations that he was improperly awarded a massive US$439 million contract to supply cancer treatment machines to Zimbabwean hospitals.

Barely 24 hours after showing off a brand-new Rolls-Royce Cullinan, Chivayo added two more luxury vehicles to his garage: a Mercedes-Maybach S680 and a Range Rover P530 HSE. The combined value? A staggering R9.85 million (over US$540,000).

The purchases were proudly announced by Vogue AutoMotors, a luxury dealership based in Sandton, South Africa. In their congratulatory message, the dealership called Chivayo a generous man with a big heart and dubbed him “Africa’s Giant of Generosity.”

“Congratulations! @sir_wicknell our VVIPClient🍾🍾🍾🥂

The flashy display of wealth sparked fierce debate online. Many Zimbabweans took to social media to question how Chivayo was funding his purchases, especially given the recent scandal involving the massive government tender. Others criticised his obsession with cars in a country battling poverty.

Here’s a glimpse at what people were saying:

@MimiNiMwafrika:

Anyone who runs a legitimate business knows that you’d have to own a money printer to have so much free cash flow + an idiot of a finance manager!

@mattiedziva:

I have a question. Why would one person need more than 10 cars? Is it my poverty mentality? Some of the cars serve the same purpose.

@Blessing_Museki:

Nobody is going to convince me Wikinero is a bona fide businessman.

@Nendangagumbo:

This man is mentally deranged! What’s this obsession with cars? I wonder how many cars he owns now. This is sickening 😢 in a country where poverty rules. And most shameful is his business of corruptly getting tenders from the government.

@StephenOfRep:

For a country desperate for increased economic growth, one would have thought that those fortunate enough to have the means would put a priority on investing in the productive economy instead of just wasteful consumption. Poor #Zimbabwe
