The deal, signed without a public tender, has sparked nationwide outrage. In a blistering social media post on 18 June 2025 that has since gone viral, the former Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC) leader Nelson Chamisa launched a broadside against what he called “state-sponsored looting.” “CORRUPTION must never be a fashion or a skill!! You stole the elections. You stole the mandate. You stole the gold. You stole the money through deals. You stole opportunities from citizens. You stole the dignity of the citizens. You stole the pride of the nation. You are stealing in every tender.” Chamisa then switched to vernacular Shona, delivering a culturally-charged rebuke that resonated deeply with ordinary Zimbabweans: “Hamuguti seiko? (Why are you never satisfied?) Mune miromo minganiko? (How many mouths do you have to feed?) Ko mune matumbu rudziiko asingaguti? (What kind of stomachs do you have that are never full?) Anombova manganiko matumbu enyu hama? (What kind of stomachs do you have, brothers?) Hamuneti? Hamunyarivo? (Don’t you get tired? Aren’t you ashamed?)” The opposition leader’s rhetorical questions – referencing the Shona cultural concept of “kuguta” (being satisfied) – struck a chord with citizens grappling with economic hardships while politically-connected elites land billion-dollar deals. The Controversial Deal: A Hotel-Based Company Wins Massive Health Contract Documents leaked to the media reveal astonishing details about the agreement between the Zimbabwean government and Chivayo’s TTM Global Medical Exports: Company Background: Incorporated in South Africa in November 2024 – just seven months before securing the contract. Registered at Sandton’s luxury Da Vinci Hotel with no known medical manufacturing facilities. Contract Value: US$439 million (R7.9 billion) paid over four years in annual installments of US$109 million (R1.97 billion). Payment Schedule: Includes a US$52.5 million (R945 million) upfront payment, followed by monthly transfers of US$9.1 million (R164 million) starting April 2025. No Competitive Tender: Deal allegedly signed directly by Chief Secretary to the President Martin Rushwaya, bypassing normal procurement processes. Phase Timeline Delivery Target Phase 1 First 6 months 20% equipment to major hospitals in Harare, Bulawayo Phase 2 Months 7-18 Provincial hospitals in 5 regions Phase 3 Months 19-24 District hospitals and cancer centers Prominent lawyer and politician Fadzayi Mahere exposed glaring irregularities through a series of probing questions on X: “Can you explain why the value is half a billion US dollars? Why was a company that came into existence in November 2024 awarded this contract? Does your company manufacture cancer equipment at a luxury hotel?” Investigative journalist Jealousy Mawarire leaked documents showing Chivayo personally drafted the proposal that led to the contract award. He commented: “This is daylight robbery. While citizens queue for basic medicines, Mnangagwa’s allies are pocketing billions for equipment that may never materialize.” Chivayo’s Defiant Response: “I’m On Holiday – Stop Disturbing Me!” Facing mounting criticism, Chivayo responded with characteristic bravado on 18 June 2025, dismissing the leaked contract as “fake”: “Ini ndiri kuno ku HOLIDAY hangu musandi nyangadze please… (I’m on holiday, don’t disturb me). For opposition to make noise about an unsigned FAKE document shows desperation.” The businessman, known for flaunting his wealth on social media, mocked critics: “When I said I’ll be a billionaire by 2030, you thought I’d be selling mice traps? Put some respect on my name!” He accused opponents of lacking legal understanding: “An unsigned contract isn’t worth the paper it’s printed on. But I guess chasing social media likes is easier than reading law books.” A Pattern of Controversial Deals This isn’t Chivayo’s first controversial government contract: Failed Gwanda Solar Project (2015): Received US$5 million upfront but is yet to deliver anything meaningful. Election Materials Scandal (2023): Funneled R800 million from a R1.1 billion election procurement deal IMC Communications Pivot: His telecoms firm suddenly switched to road construction with no experience *Wicknell Chivayo Gets US$109m While Entire Health Ministry Gets US$44 Million Per Year: Fadzayi Mahere Speaks Out* Prominent opposition politician and advocate Fadzayi Mahere has raised alarm over what she described as a grossly disproportionate government allocation — revealing that businessman Wicknell Chivayo is set to receive US$109.3 million (approximately R1.95 billion) annually from a government contract, while the entire Ministry of Health and Child Care has been allocated just US$44 million (roughly R790 million) for the 2025 fiscal year. Mahere posted the claims on her verified X (formerly Twitter) account on 18 June 2025, stating that the information came from the leaked contents of a contract between the Zimbabwean government and TTM Global Medical Exports (Pty) Ltd, a company reportedly owned solely by Chivayo. “📍The Ministry of Health was allocated a measly US$44 million from @ZimTreasury in the 2025 National Budget. 📍Wicknel’s company was allegedly awarded a US$400 million cancer equipment contract. 📍In terms of clause 3.49 of Wicknel’s alleged contract, he was to be paid US$52,5 million in advance (before any performance or delivery). This advance payment already exceeds the National Budget. 📍The contract further states that Wicknel is to be paid US$109,320,600.00 annually. His annual payment is more than double the entire budget of the Ministry of Health.” She ended her post with a pointed statement: “It’s a mess. We need new leaders.” The alleged contract with TTM Global Medical Exports (Pty) Ltd, a South African registered company, reportedly totals US$439 million (about R7.9 billion). According to online documents reviewed by multiple outlets, the payment structure includes: Upfront payment of US$52.5 million (R940 million) made in March 2025 Twelve equal monthly instalments of US$9,110,050 (around R163 million each) from April 2025 to March 2026, totalling US$109,320,600 (R1.95 billion) annually Contract duration: 4 years, with the same payment structure each year until March 2029 This payment is intended for the supply of cancer treatment equipment, including radiotherapy machines, chemotherapy delivery systems, and imaging equipment. However, Mahere and others have raised questions about the legitimacy and transparency of the deal. “📍The alleged contract is with TTM Global Medical Exports (Pty) Ltd, a company where Wicknel Chivayo is the sole director according to a companies search. 📍The company is only 7 months old and has no discernible track record. 📍Its registered office is a hotel suite in Sandton, South Africa. 📍There was no transparent tender process.” She also warned of the risks of prepayment without delivery, referencing past controversies: “There’s a risk that it will be paid but nothing will be delivered, a la Gwanda Solar Project.” Chivayo Responds to Outrage On 18 June 2025, Chivayo responded via his own verified X account, where he appeared to confirm knowledge of the public backlash. However, he dismissed the leaked contract as “fake” and “unsigned”, calling the outrage a politically motivated attempt to tarnish his name. Introducing his post in Shona, he said: “Ini ndiri ku HOLIDAY hangu musandi nyangadze please…” (“I am on holiday, please don’t disturb me…”) He continued: “For a whole group of opposition outfits to team up and make noise about an unsigned FAKE document is an embarrassing desperation for political relevance… Please put some respect to my name, when I said I’m on track to be a BILLIONAIRE by vision 2030.” Chivayo also targeted Mahere and legal professionals who questioned the deal’s legality, writing: “Try to PRETEND understanding the basics of LAW that an unsigned contract is not worth the paper it’s printed on. I thought lawyers argue FACTS backed by concrete EVIDENCE.” He concluded his post by taking a swipe at critics: “I will never stop working hard, moving from strength to strength… If you continue attacking me, at least do it with facts.” No official government statement has been issued to either confirm or deny the authenticity of the leaked contract or explain why such a substantial deal was allegedly entered into without a competitive bidding process. iHarare
