A R130-million mansion in Harare now belongs to Wicknell Chivayo, a tenderpreneur and ex-convict. It used to belong to Augustine Chihuri, the Zimbabwean police chief who remained loyal to Robert Mugabe. Exiled former Zimbabwe Republic Police commissioner Augustine Chihuri's R130-million mansion in Harare has been snapped up by Wicknell Chivayo, a convicted criminal-cum-tenderpreneur with access to President Emmerson Mnangagwa. In April, at the Zimbabwe International Trade Fair, Chivayo was spotted with Mnangagwa when he hosted Kenya's President William Ruto. Reports in Zimbabwe say Chivayo's closeness to the president does not sit well with some in the ruling Zanu PF.
