Well-known Zimbabwean businessman Wicknell Chivayo has ignited a social media firestorm after showcasing large amounts of cash on his social media accounts.
Chivayo, known for his lavish lifestyle, recently engaged in a public spat with UK-based socialite Olinda Chapel. Chapel criticized Chivayo for spending his money on luxury items rather than supporting causes like healthcare or donating to those in need.
She also questioned the source of his wealth, specifically funds allocated for the Gwanda Solar Panel project.
In response, Chivayo posted pictures on Instagram displaying stacks of cash, claiming to be "comforted" by finding $4 million "lying idle" in his private vault. He further added a picture of $3 million neatly packed in a suitcase, stating his satisfaction at fitting such a large sum into a single container.
Chivayo's display of wealth has sparked debate online. Some found his actions distasteful, suggesting he could have used the money for more productive purposes. Others expressed skepticism about the source of his funds, echoing Chapel's concerns. Chivayo, however, defended himself, claiming his wealth is "heaven-sent" and warned those trying to imitate him might resort to "dark" methods for acquiring riches.
This incident highlights the ongoing debate surrounding wealth and its display in Zimbabwe. While some celebrate financial success, others argue for a more philanthropic approach to wealth management, particularly when the country faces social and economic challenges.
