Mangled and Burning Corpses After Helicopter Crash Involving Tycoon
Zimbabwe. Prominent and controversial Zimbabwean millionaire businessman Wicknell Chivayo, popularly known as "Sir Wicknell", has died alongside his wife, Lucy "Lulu" Muteke, following a catastrophic helicopter crash in a rural area in Zimbabwe. The incident occurred at approximately 17:00 on Wednesday evening. Authorities have confirmed there were no survivors among the six occupants on board. Wicknell Chivayo, the founder of Intratrek Zimbabwe, was a deeply polarising figure known across Southern Africa for his lucrative and frequently debated government energy contracts, close ties to top political elites, and an ostentatious social media presence where he frequently flaunted multi-million dollar luxury vehicle fleets and cash donations. His newly wed wife of Wicknell Chivayo, Lucy Muteke was among the 6 crew that was aboard the ill fated chopper crash. She got married to Wicknell Chivayo in a high profile wedding in March 2025 after Chivayo divorced her long time wife and mother to her children, Sonja Madzikanda. The two had shortly dated in 2024 before tying the knot in 2025 in a lavish wedding in Harare. |
