Prominent Chimurenga musician Thomas Mapfumo has slammed controversial businessman Wicknell Chivhayo for his extravagant spending on expensive cars.
This comes as Chivhayo has been giving away cars to ZANU PF musicians like Alick Macheso Sandra Ndebele, Jah Prayzah, DJ Fantan, Seh Calaz and Mathias Mhere.
In an interview with Lance Guma on Nehanda TV, Mapfumo said musicians are only accepting the cars because they have no choice.
“They are accepting all these beautiful cars because they can’t afford them. I saw Jah Prayzah thanking him (Wicknell Chivayo) after receiving a car that he had never seen.”
Mapfumo questioned why Wicknell is not channeling the funds to Zimbabwe’s health sector.
“Why can’t you just channel that money to hospitals? Our roads are in a bad state, and people are living in poverty. Our fight is not for certain individuals to get a good living but for everyone to come out of poverty.”
