Zimbabwe lawmakers must investigate money claims against rich businessman Wicknell Chivayo, who knows President Mnangagwa well. A man from Kwekwe asked Parliament leader Mudenda to check if Chivayo broke the law with election money. The case centers around voting materials worth millions paid to a South African printer last year.
Papers shared online say Chivayo got R800 million from a R1.2 billion deal. South African money watchers flagged these payments as possibly wrong. A banker named Raymond Chigogwana helped move cash between different banks quickly. His money transfer companies operate in both Zimbabwe and South Africa.
The cash went through FNB, Standard Bank, and Absa. Chivayo spent money on fancy clothes, cars, gadgets, houses, and travel. News websites say he collected payment across the border. Financial officials noticed unusual patterns with the money.
