Chiyangwa’s mansion gutted by fire (Pictures)

HARARE – We have just received pictures of businessman Philip Chiyangwa’s famous “White House” mansion in Harare which has been gutted by fire in the main bedroom area.

The circumstances surrounding the fire remain unclear at the moment although some reports suggested Chiyangwa had been admitted at the Trauma Centre in Harare while others said the Avenues Clinic.

Efforts to get comment from Chiyangwa himself proved futile friday morning.

When journalists visited the property, Chiyangwa was leaving in a private car reportedly to a city private hospital for treatment.

Chiyangwa’s son Bruce said they were not suspecting foul play. He said his father was the only one injured.

Domestic workers said fire started in Chiyangwa’s bedroom and quickly spread to other rooms.

“I was the first to notice the fire when I was by the gate after which I alerted others,” said a security guard at one of the gates to the expansive mansion.
