HARARE \u2013 In a week that celebrated humility and faith beyond the pulpit, two major stories captured the hearts of Zimbabweans online: gospel music icon Charles \u201cBaba\u201d Charamba went viral for an impromptu street performance, while flamboyant businessman Wicknell Chivayo surprised street preacher Prophet Inzwirashe Matema with a brand-new Toyota Fortuner and US$50,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Charamba\u2019s Humble Street \u201cRobot\u201d Session Wins Hearts<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A video of renowned gospel musician Baba Charamba jamming with a street vendor at a busy intersection quickly set social media ablaze, earning widespread praise for his down-to-earth nature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The clip shows Charamba, one of Zimbabwe\u2019s most celebrated gospel artists, joining a young vendor who was passionately singing his hit song \u201cSodom NeGomorrah\u201d. The spontaneous duet, described by many as a \u201crobot session,\u201d highlighted Charamba\u2019s accessibility and connection with people from all walks of life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Fans and fellow artists flooded social media with commendations. One fan wrote:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThis Charamba has groomed all kinds of generations with his songs. We expect all famous celebrities to do the same with their fans.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Another added:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cFor a moment, I thought it was actually Pastor Charamba singing. Such talents need to be recognised and developed.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Top musician Jah Prayzah also showed respect, sharing on his Instagram story:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cRespect my Legend.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Chivayo Blesses Street Preacher with Fortuner and US$50,000<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In a separate but equally uplifting story, businessman Wicknell Chivayo gifted street evangelist Prophet Inzwirashe Matema a brand-new 2025 Toyota Fortuner and US$50,000 in cash to support his ministry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Chivayo announced the generous donation on his official Facebook page in a post titled<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cTHE HOLY SPIRIT FROM 1st STREET\u2026\u201d, where he praised Matema\u2019s humility and dedication to preaching in the streets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI have come to realize that the HUMILITY of mankind is the highest HONOUR and EXALTATION of God,\u201d Chivayo wrote.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThis is why I hold in VERY HIGH respect, Men of God who choose to preach in the STREETS\u2026 Today I want to recognize PROPHET INZWIRASHE MATEMA.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He continued:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIn recognition of your HUMBLE service, please go and see Victor at Exquisite Motors and collect your brand-new 2025 TOYOTA FORTUNER\u2026 In addition, you will receive USD50,000 IN CASH to support your MINISTRY.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Prophet Matema, known for his powerful open-air sermons, often preaches to pedestrians and vendors in Harare\u2019s city center. Chivayo emphasized that true ministry isn\u2019t about glamorous pulpits but faithfulness and humility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
