LIVEVIDEO report starting in an hour’s time.
By Staff Reporter| Barely hours after dodging an interview to answer for his dodgy $5million ZESA parastatal tender among other shady deals worth hundreds of millions of dollars, Wicknell Chivayo has been arrested, shortly after insulting ZimEye’s Simba Chikanza during a LIVE program on Saturday night.
His lawyer has confirmed Chivayo was taken away by security forces but could not tell whether it was police or military. To further confirm the arrest, attempts by ZimEye.com to reach Chivayo since last night were met with a brickwall as Chivayo’s phone was continuously switched off.
His lawyer Thabani Mpofu told the local Daily News Chivayo was arrested yesterday Sunday although he was not sure which police took him, ZRP or military. “At the moment I am still frantically trying to establish what happened. I thought by now I would have made headway, but nothing has come up yet,” he said.
Chivayo’s WhatsApp number showed he was last online around 5pm yesterday when ZimEye called him once again.
ZimEye.com is in the next few minutes offloading the tender document Chivayo reportedly stole from the ZANU PF headquarters and which he used to inflate figures.
Chivayo’s arrest is over the ZESA deals wherewith he obtained over half a billion dollars worth of tenders and moreover received a cash payment of $5million without a performance guarantee.
He was arrested within 24 hours of dodging ZimEye.com for answers.

Wicknell can just say he is fee till the deadline and the court should not be able to deal with him till after the date.
True they ALL should be arrested perhaps we will read that he is spilling the beans
Was “your most obedient son” not on your list?
Wicknell was handed the money by those who used him as a conduit for externalising. No use arresting him and not them.
The externalising deadline date is end of January so that is when arrests should begin.
The 5 million from ZESA should be pursued by ZESA not by police without a complaint from the ZESA board which itself cannot make the complaint because that would cause them to be arrested too for releasing the money in the first place.
two more to go, then my list will be completed. Walter Magaya and Udenge

From 350 shoes to 350 soaps that his going to bend down and pick up muzandomu
When some of us who know Wicknell said he was a fraud, we were called liars and jealous. It’s sad that in our country even plain criminals like him had been elevated to the title of SIR Wicknell. Coming from Gwanda, I tell you my 2 acres that I tilled with my 2 donkeys look better than the patch Wicknell got paid 5 million for.
Not surprising the fraudster has done time before behind the bars and this is just a repeat of the norm for him ,once a jailbird always a jailbird, its running in his genes.
