Popular Harare socialite and businessman Genius ‘Ginimbi Kadungure’ died on the spot early Sunday morning in a head-on car accident along Borrowdale Road, in Harare.
Exiled former minister Saviour Kasukuwere also confirmed Ginimbi’s death.
“This is unbearable. A young man who worked hard and enjoyed hard is no more! The flower has wilted! Go well Boss Ginimbi. MHDSRIP,” said Kasukuwere.
Sources say Ginimbi was speeding when he crashed and was thrown out of the vehicle, which later burst into flames. He is the owner of Pioneer Gas and PIKO Group.
A relative told the media this morning that the businessman had two other passengers in his car who were “burnt beyond recognition”.
