Controversial businessman Wicknell Chivayo has made headlines once more by presenting a luxury car and high-tech gadgets to C.H. Mukungunugwa, a dedicated propagandist for the ruling ZANU PF party.
This generous gesture comes in recognition of Mukungunugwa’s unwavering commitment to promoting the party’s activities and initiatives, that’s according to Chivayo.
In a post on social media, Chivayo expressed his appreciation for Mukungunugwa’s loyalty and hard work. He highlighted Mukungunugwa’s exceptional abilities in documenting notable events, referencing his impressive coverage of a recent interface meeting between President Emmerson Mnangagwa and opposition MPs at Precabe Farm in Kwekwe.
“Today, I want to appreciate a committed ZANU PF cadre and information strategist, Mr. C.H. Mukungunugwa, for his remarkable dedication to the party,” Chivayo stated.
He went on to announce that Mukungunugwa would receive a fully paid 2020 Mercedes Benz C200 from Enterprise Car Sales, along with the latest tech gadgets, including an iPhone 16 Pro Max, a Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra, and an iPad Air.
“Your passion and commitment to keeping the public informed about ZANU PF’s milestones, despite not having formal journalistic training, showcases exceptional loyalty and unwavering support for the ruling party’s cause,” Chivayo added.
Mukungunugwa took to Twitter to express his heartfelt thanks to Chivayo for the recognition.
“Thank you, Sir Wicknell, for your continuous support for the ruling party ZANU PF through this gesture of a brand new car. I’m going to drive Vision 2030 forward as envisioned by His Excellency President Emmerson Dambudzo Mnangagwa!”
Chivayo’s gift to Mukungunugwa has sparked conversations about the role of private individuals in supporting political figures, as well as the intertwining of business interests with party politics in Zimbabwe.
