A prophet based in Chiweshe, Zimbabwe, who received a luxury vehicle as a gift from the late business tycoon Wicknell Chivayo, has died in a road accident involving that same car, according to a report by Dandaro Online.
The loss has hit many Zimbabweans hard, with the heartbreak compounded by the fact that the prophet's death came only weeks after Chivayo was laid to rest. For a country that had barely begun processing the passing of one of its most colourful public figures, the news of the prophet's fate felt like a cruel extension of the same grief.

Chivayo's legacy of extravagant giving
Throughout his life, Wicknell Chivayo was widely recognised for his lavish generosity, particularly his habit of gifting expensive motor vehicles to family, friends, and religious associates.
He regularly documented these gestures on social media, turning each act of giving into a public event that drew both admiration and conversation across Zimbabwe.
The Chiweshe prophet was among the beneficiaries of that generosity, having received a high-end car from the tycoon. The specific circumstances of the fatal crash involving that vehicle have not been fully detailed.

Following news of the prophet's death, an old photograph that Chivayo had originally shared in 2021 began circulating again online.
The image shows the two men standing together beside a white car outside a Johane Masowe church gathering, a moment that now carries a weight it could not have held at the time it was taken.
The resurfacing of that image has added a layer of poignancy to the mourning, serving as a reminder of the bond between the two men and the generosity that connected them.
Here is the Instagram post about the cleric who lost his life:
