In a shocking turn of events, President Emmerson Mnangagwa has reportedly made a surprise move, pushing out controversial businessman Wicknell Chivhayo from the high-profile bid to secure a deal for Starlink, a satellite internet constellation project, in the country.
Chivhayo, who is no stranger to controversy, had been at the forefront of the bid to secure a deal for Starlink, but it appears that his efforts have been thwarted by the President himself.
While details of the move are still sketchy, sources close to the development have revealed that the President has decided to walk away from Chivhayo, citing concerns about the businessman's suitability to handle such a critical project.
Chivhayo has been embroiled in several high-profile controversies in the past, and it is believed that the President may have deemed him unsuitable for the project due to these concerns.
The decision is expected to send shockwaves through the business community, with many analysts expressing surprise at the sudden move.
"This is a massive blow to Chivhayo's ambitions," said one analyst. "He has been pushing hard for this deal, and to be shut out like this is a major setback for him."
The Starlink project has been touted as a game-changer for the country's internet connectivity, and the deal is believed to be worth millions of dollars.
While Chivhayo's exit from the deal may come as a surprise to many, it is clear that the President is keen to ensure that the project is handed over to a suitable candidate who has the country's interests at heart.
As the news of Chivhayo's exit from the deal continues to sink in, the business community will be watching with bated breath to see who will be the next in line to secure the deal.
One thing is certain, however - the President's move has sent a clear message that he will not tolerate any monkey business when it comes to high-profile projects of this nature.
Chivhayo's team was unavailable for comment when contacted, but sources close to the businessman say he is "fuming" over the President's decision.
The news of Chivhayo's exit from the deal has sparked a heated debate on social media, with many weighing in on the development.
