Controversial businessman Wicknel Chivhayo is once again making headlines after unveiling a brand-new 2025 Rolls-Royce Cullinan Series 2 Facelift, worth an estimated US$1.3 million but it’s the backstory behind the luxury vehicle that’s fuelling online chatter.
Chivhayo posted the flamboyant reveal on his social media platforms, writing“A total of 1.3 MILLION USD WELL SPENT… 2025 ROLLS-ROYCE CULLINAN SERIES 2 FACELIFT… TALK IS CHEAP…💰💸💰🎊🎉🕺”
However, internet sleuths were quick to remind followers that in February 2025, Wicknell had publicly declared he had fully paid for a Rolls-Royce Cullinan intended as a gift for businessman and Sakunda Holdings CEO Dr. Kudakwashe Tagwirei, to be delivered in July.
Now that July has arrived and Wicknell appears to be driving the car himself speculation is rife that Tagwirei may have rejected the extravagant gesture.
This latest incident comes amid rising scrutiny over Chivayo’s public displays of wealth, particularly at a time when many Zimbabweans are grappling with economic hardships.
