Wicknell Chivayo Says "Leaked" Social Media Screenshots Are Fake
Social media personality Wicknell Chivayo, known for frequently flaunting his lavish lifestyle and donating vehicles to individuals with links to the ruling ZANU PF party, has spoken out against the alleged dissemination of purported screenshots of his private conversations on social media.
Over the past few days, several social media pages have been sharing what they claim to be leaked conversation screenshots from Chivayo’s Instagram account.
These screenshots reportedly reveal his private interactions with various individuals, including musicians Shashl and Kikky Badass, as well as Hadassah, the wife of preacher Ed Branson, and Anesu, the wife of preacher Evidence Chari.
The alleged chats with Hadassah, in particular, have garnered significant attention on social media due to their scandalous nature, reportedly involving declarations of love.
In a Facebook post on Saturday, Chivayo categorically denied the authenticity of these screenshots, claiming that they were fabricated by impersonators.
He asserted that the purported conversations were generated by individuals deliberately seeking to tarnish his reputation.
Chivayo’s source of wealth has long been a subject of public scrutiny, as he is known for flaunting the expensive cars and vehicles he has donated to people with connections to the ruling party, despite his wealth not being publicly known. He wrote:
FOR THE RECORD, not everything requires a response, but this continued relentless attack on my personal standing, coordinated character assassination of high profiled people and defamation of purely innocent women using my name can NEVER be tolerated or ignored!
I have been APPALLED that over the last few days, almost every social media platform has been awash with screenshots PURPORTEDLY taken from my Instagram account.
I disassociate myself from these FAKE screenshots and DISMISS them in their entirety as nothing more than MALICIOUS fabrications being sponsored by CRIMINALS who realized that their attempt to extort me was DISMALLY unsuccessful.
I must say that all the alleged screenshots were generated through FAKE social media accounts purporting to be my official account.
These pseudo pages include, but are not limited to “sirwicknellfanpage”, “chivayowicknell” and “wicknell_chivayo_” whose handlers impersonate me by reproducing and posting pictures from my official account with the intention to deceive the unsuspecting public.
My attention was drawn to these FAKE accounts sometime in 2023, at which point I dutifully alerted the public and REPORTED them to be taken down.
Regrettably, these accounts have not been closed and I neither have access to, nor do I have the legal authority to control the SPITEFUL and DECEPTIVE content posted through such accounts as has been witnessed over the past few days.I have DECISIVELY taken steps to engage the appropriate authorities and agents abroad, to assist in a forensic investigation on the MALCONTENTS and cyber-criminals behind these accounts and bring them to book.
Our local data and cyber protection laws also prohibit against such reprehensible conduct, particularly when it results in soiling the image of young innocent WOMEN and depict them as being of questionable moral.
I extend my DEEPEST APOLOGIES to all those individuals, known and unknown to me, who have been adversely affected by these FAKE messages and regret the damage that this may have caused them, their partners or families.
I particularly share my SINCERE remorse to PROPHET DR EDD BRANSON, his family and Church for the anxiety which these PROVOCATIVE and DEFAMATORY, yet UNTRUTHFUL messages may have caused.
I know the Man of God personally and accord him the highest level of respect as a successful businessman of exceptional repute and whose name is unworthy of being UNNECESARILY drawn in such shallow controversies and choreographed scandals.
I personally UNDERTAKE to do everything necessary to VINDICATE myself, Prophet Edd Branson, Pastor Chari, and all the notable public figures whose names have been brought into disrepute by these mischievous Instagram impersonators peddling UNACCEPTABLE falsehoods.
To those behind this WHAT GOES AROUND COMES AROUND and with God’s grace your time will come !
My success is anointed by GOD through PRAYER and I will NEVER stop my philanthropic work because of your selfish and EXTORTIVE machinations.
Nothing will ever stop me from buying deserving people cars, houses or empowering underprivileged children by paying their school fees etc.
Lies have very SHORT legs and the full character of these baseless accusations will soon be seen by all. ENOUGH SAID…!
