Tagwirei Behind Cancellation Of Winky D's HICC New Year’s Eve Performance

Controversial businessman Kudakwashe Tagwirei, through his foundation, paid the Rainbow Tourism Group US$245,000, leading to the cancellation of Winky D’s New Year’s Eve performance at the Harare International Conference Centre.

This booking included 200 rooms for five days. ZimLive reported that Tagwirei’s Bridging Gaps Foundation reserved the venue on behalf of the Seventh Day Adventist Church, of which he is a devoted member. A source briefed on the developments said:

The SDAs usually hold a Crossover Service at Glamis Arena Stadium. It was Rainbow which invited Tagwirei to use the HICC, not the other way round.

Rainbow insisted that the arrangement with Winky D was not financially beneficial as it involved revenue share, whereas they wanted an outright payment for use of the venue.

They negotiated an arrangement where Tagwirei pays US$245,000 for the HICC and 200 rooms for five days.

Earlier this month, Winky D’s legal counsel, Tsunga Law International, said the venue owners decided to prioritize another event on December 31, 2024, despite an established agreement with Winky D.

The law firm also said the venue had been secured as early as May 2024, with all necessary arrangements already in place for the show.

Rainbow corporate communications manager Pride Khumbula did not respond to inquiries from ZimLive, and Tagwirei also declined to comment.

The hotel group, partially owned by the state, is facing backlash from Winky D fans who accuse it of conspiring with the ruling ZANU PF party to silence the musician. Tagwirei’s involvement has intensified these suspicions.

Winky D’s sharp social commentary has drawn the attention of ZANU PF, leading to his music being blacklisted by ZBC at one point.

It remains uncertain whether Winky D will proceed with his New Year’s Eve gig, as speculation grows that he may announce a different venue.

The Church in Zim has been long compromised. Won't be surprised if they are already laundering money through the church.

@T that's a venue for anyone, just coz winky has been having his end of year shows there does not entitle him to anything. Even iwewe waigona kungonoBooker on 31st wotopihwa if wauya be good deal. Tagwirei is way bigger to even involve himself naWinky. Don't be stu.pid handiti!

Those unEmployed Youth have never failed to fill up the HICC, so it's obvious this cancellation was politically motivated & an attempt to stop Gaffer from Performing Asi zvisinei, He can sue them for 500 000us, zvigo nonoka but ongozo winner LawSuit bcoz, Rainbow 🌈 cannot prove that He wouldn't have made away with such revenue

Any contract done includes some remedies if either part breaches. Businesswise it may be worth breaching one contract for a lucrative one and comply with the remedies for the breached contract. Its purely business and there is not politics here. Actually Winky is likely to benefit more by finding another venue and get compensated by HICC

It all squares down to business. It's an opportunity for HICC to make more money...legally Wink should seek redress and sue HICC for bleach of contract. There is no politics here if you know what to do.

SDA must shun being used as a tool of repression. it is evident zanu pf is working its tentacles to put a tight grip on silencing The Voice. Rainbow must also adhere to contractual terms.We know the enemies of the people.
RoadKill · 1 month ago
The main issue is not adherence but anything zanu pf touches cannot fight back. Look at how econet was once used to give out voters numbers. Any businesses must answer when zanu pf knocks otherwise the sabotage won't be worth it
