In one of the most shocking celebrity exposés to ever rock Zimbabwe’s entertainment and political elite, new allegations suggest that the powerful and flamboyant businessman Wicknell Chivayo and superstar musician Jah Prayzah have been entangled in a secret love affair — hidden behind years of public friendship, expensive gifts, and exotic travels.
What appeared to be a typical bromance may have been something far deeper — and far more scandalous.
The Luxury Trail: Cars, Cash, and a Private Mansion
According to multiple sources close to both men, Wicknell Chivayo didn’t just support Jah Prayzah’s career from a distance — he showered him with opulence that raised eyebrows even within Zimbabwe’s celebrity circles.
Luxury Vehicles: Chivayo has reportedly given Jah Prayzah at least three luxury cars in the past five years, including a Mercedes-Benz G-Wagon, a Range Rover Sport, and a top-of-the-line Toyota Land Cruiser VX — all paid for in full.
Stacks of Cash: Rumors persist that Jah Prayzah has received over US$500,000 in “personal gifts” from Chivayo — discreetly handed over after concerts, private dinners, or during their famous Dubai getaways.
A Secret Mansion: One of the biggest revelations is that Wicknell allegedly purchased a private home in Borrowdale Brooke, fully furnished, and quietly registered under an associate’s name — but primarily used by Jah Prayzah during his time in Harare.
Fully Sponsored Vacations: From Dubai to Cape Town, insiders claim that Chivayo footed the bill for multiple international trips enjoyed by the artist — including luxury suites, five-star restaurants, and yacht parties far from the public eye.
Leaked Messages Fuel Fire
The internet exploded after a leak of private chats, allegedly from Wicknell’s Telegram account, revealed emotionally charged messages with Jah Prayzah. One message read:
“I don’t care what they say. I’ve built this life for us and no one can take that away.”
Another screenshot suggested Wicknell once said:
“This house, this car, the life — it’s yours. Just promise me you’ll always keep it real with me, no matter what the world thinks.”
Silence from the Stars — But the Fans Are Loud
Despite the viral nature of the leaks, both Chivayo and Jah Prayzah have remained completely silent, refusing to address the allegations publicly. Meanwhile, social media has erupted, with #WicknellAndJah and #BorrowdaleSecrets trending across Zimbabwean Twitter and Facebook.
Some fans have expressed shock and betrayal, while others have rallied behind the artist, arguing that “love is love” and that private lives shouldn’t be judged so harshly.
“This wasn’t just friendship. Jah was always protected. Always funded. Always covered. We all suspected something deeper was going on.”
