THE late socialite and businessman Genius “Ginimbi” Kadungure’s body was taken to Doves Funerals parlour yesterday despite Nyaradzo Life Assurance being the first to manage it, an episode which set tongues wagging amid claims that there was politics at play between the two funeral service providers. BY WINSTONE ANTONIO/KENNEDY NYAVAYA Ginimbi (36) died in a horror car accident along Borrowdale road in Harare on Sunday when his Rolls Royce Wraith collided head-on with a Honda Fit while driving back to his Domboshava mansion in the company of Malawian Limumba Karim, fitness trainer and video vixen Mitchel “Mimi Moana” Amuli and Mozambican model and socialite Alichia Adams. Karim, Amuli and Adams were trapped inside the car and burnt beyond recognition after the collision, while Ginimbi was pulled out just before the vehicle exploded into flames. Speculative reports emerged that Ginimbi’s close associates, who are linked to the ruling Zanu PF party, had arm-twisted the deceased’s family to dump Nyaradzo for Doves. “A lot of politics has been at play with regards to Ginimbi’s funeral. There seems to be some influence by his close associates. His family had initially engaged Nyaradzo, but his close associates, who are heavily involved in politics, were not happy about the family’s initial decision to engage Nyaradzo,” a source said. “These are the same guys who had proposed the all-white party farewell, which was shot down by the family. They, however, managed to convince the family to move the body from Nyaradzo to Doves hoping that they would be able to get some favours they wanted from the authorities, who are said to behind this funeral service company.” Without getting much into detail, Nyaradzo marketing officer Grace Chimedza yesterday said they just respected Ginimbi’s family decision to have his body moved to Doves. A family source told NewsDay Weekender that Ginimbi’s family had approached Nyaradzo first, but they later discovered that he had a policy with Doves South Africa, and that was when they then collected the body from Nyaradzo and handed it over to Doves to handle everything. Ginimbi will be buried today at his million-dollar mansion in a customised Versace coffin with a medusa print. The coffin was imported from South Africa, courtesy of his associates under the banner Friends of Ginimbi. Friends of Ginimbi’s spokesperson Ronald Muzambe confirmed to NewsDay Weekender that the coffin had come from South Africa, though he could not disclose all the costs involved. “There was no coffin that was bought prior to Ginimbi’s death, there was no such thing. There are multiple stories doing the rounds with regards the issue of the coffin. Many people wanted to buy the coffin for Ginimbi. We then decided that no individual should buy the coffin and the coffin was brought through contributions,” he said. “After putting the contributions together, some money was used to buy the coffin and some to cover funeral expenses. So it was a joint effort, not an individual job. I will clarify that the coffin was imported fro
BY FORTUNE MBELE FC PLATINUM coach Hendrikus Pieter De Jongh has questioned the wisdom of rushing players back into Premier League action following a lengthy break induced by the outbreak of COVID-19. Although his team needs more game time before plunging into the Caf Champions League this November having played a single competitive game all year, the Dutch coach does not want to rush his players back into full throttle action after Zifa suggested that the topflight league could resume in a month's time. The Premier Soccer League insists dates cannot be set before authorisation from government. De Jongh yesterday questioned the wisdom of starting the league on short notice since there has been no action since March when football activities were suspended because of the COVID-19 pandemic. 'How is it possible to prepare for only four weeks and then want to start the league? Preparation needs a minimum of six weeks and now after more than six months without team training, eight weeks preparation would do,' De Jongh wrote on his Twitter account. In an interview following his post, the Dutchman said starting the league on scrappy preparations would expose players to injuries. 'Starting the league with little time of preparation will expose players to injuries and it will be difficult to display good top performance. It is important to train on technical and tactical areas. It's not like I have any suggestion to Zifa or the PSL but from my experience as an international football coach, I know we need six weeks preparation and now because since end of March there has been no training, we may need eight weeks.' He said FC Platinum awaits authorisation to start team training and for the Caf Champions League there is still ample time to prepare. 'The Champions League is at the end of November. We have enough time. As long as there is no enough time for preparation, then there is a problem. At the moment my players are still training at home and send in updates about their home training four times a week. We are just waiting to see if we could get back to the pitch and work on technical and tactical areas,' De Jongh said.
