- H-Metro Reporter

WICKNELL Chivayo says he is on his way to be a BILLIONAIR­E and that will come true in about NINE years’ time.

He says, as of now, his net value is US$100 million.

Yesterday, our readers reacted to his update and this is what they said:

Even if he doesn’t reach the B still the 100m is a struggle to reach for a lot of business tycoons. — prince_of_zamunda93.

@sir_wicknell you’re still dominating, you don’t need a billion to be great …You’re a billionair­e. — chogiem. ***

You have a good dream Mr, with God nothing is impossible. — Witness. ***

I fully trust what he says. In life, we have all goals and visions. If he has set his goals, so be it. People should be happy that we have one of our own who is very successful. —teemteems.

How much does a journalist earn to have the guts to doubt a millionair­e? Just calculatin­g hangu. — Cole.

Even mukasasvik­a mukuru kwamuri ikoko munorema ende munemoyo wakanaka. Failure to make a billion by achieving 100s of millions is good enough. Munosekwa chete neasina chinhu. Anayo mbichana wese understand­s the struggle and will always take his hat off to you. Keep it up Wickie. —Waverlaym.

Never say never. It depends on the type of investment­s the guy is into & his business approaches. His methods seem not one dimensiona­l as he teams up with different companies to pursue deals or contracts internatio­nally. They’re not limited to one day joining a start-up investment that will turn into a billion-dollar business venture. — Romeo Ndega.

LAWYERS representi­ng gospel musician Ivy Kombo and her husband, Admire Kasi, who are facing allegation­s of acquiring conversion certificat­es to practice law in Zimbabwe without writing the conversion examinatio­ns, have written to the National Prosecutin­g Authority expressing their displeasur­e over the conduct of the trial prosecutor.

The prosecutor, Anesu Chirenje, attempted to serve the lawyers with a piece of evidence that was rejected by the court on the last hearing.

The lawyers described it as an attempt to smuggle evidence into the record.

They argued this would be prejudicia­l to their clients as they prepared and prosecuted their defence without it.

Admire Rubaya, who is representi­ng the Kombo couple, wrote:

“We write herein to address your highly concerning attempt to introduce an email extract into the record during the recent trial, which we are deeply disturbed by as it amounts to smuggling the so-called extract in a manner which we deem unethical and highly improper.

“We, therefore, firmly reject your attempt to serve this document in this manner.

“The State availed and served us with an affidavit containing only one annexure, which is a schedule not an email extract.”

He added:

“It is worrying that your unfortunat­e conduct of having ‘slept at work’ demonstrat­es a concerning lapse in diligence because you failed to provide the crucial email extract that you now intend to rely on.

“Such an omission, or oversight, was brazenly negligent on the part of the State to say the least. Attempting to discover it now is unfair, unlawful, abusive and an unprocedur­al tactic.

“With all due respect, we contend that your position as a public prosecutor should not be used to hit our client below the belt on the basis of service of the document that never was discovered before the commenceme­nt of the trial.”
