- Joachim 'G6' Chivayo, alleged brother of late Zimbabwean billionaire Wicknell Chivayo, grabbed attention after footage of his under-construction Harare home went viral

- G6 has reportedly been seen alongside President Emmerson Mnangagwa, fuelling speculation about his growing influence in business and political circles
Footage of an enormous, still-unfinished residence in Harare belonging to Joachim "G6" Chivayo has gone viral, reigniting public curiosity about the Chivayo family following the reported death of prominent Zimbabwean businessman Wicknell Chivayo.
G6 is widely described in reports as either the brother or cousin of the late Wicknell Chivayo, who was one of Zimbabwe's most recognisable and talked-about businessmen before his death in a helicopter crash.

Wicknell had been known for his flamboyant lifestyle and well-documented connections within Zimbabwe's political elite.
Inside G6's under-construction Harare home
The circulating footage shows a property still very much in progress, with exposed brickwork, towering concrete pillars and incomplete walls visible throughout.
Roof structures are already in place, and the sheer scale of the build is unmistakable even at this stage of construction.
When completed, the home is reportedly planned to include eight bedrooms, a private office, an indoor gym and a sauna, positioning it among the most ambitious residential builds in the country.

G6's growing public profile
The viral footage has drawn significant online attention, partly because of the timing.
Since Wicknell's death, G6 appears to have taken on a more visible role within the family's business interests, though the full extent of his involvement has not been confirmed publicly.
Reports also indicate that G6 has been spotted in the company of Zimbabwean President Emmerson Mnangagwa and other figures previously associated with Wicknell's political network.
He was also said to have attended a Presidential Ball alongside the head of state, a detail that has sharpened public interest in who exactly G6 is and what influence he may be accumulating.
Wicknell's passing left a notable gap in Zimbabwe's business and social landscape, and the focus on his family's affairs, including the scale of G6's residence, reflects just how much public fascination surrounds that legacy.
