He also opened up about his ambition of becoming a “MULTI-BILLIONAIRE” and building businesses across Africa and beyond.

But one part of the message has attracted particular attention following his death.

The billionaire wrote that money, intelligence and hard work were not enough for the journey ahead, adding that he needed prayers for “protection, favour and divine direction” over his life and family.

Chivayo said the encounter left him spiritually refreshed and more determined to keep working while keeping God at the centre of his life.

His words have since resurfaced online because of the timing.

However, there is no evidence that Chivayo knew the helicopter crash was imminent. Authorities are still investigating the circumstances surrounding the tragedy.
