Luxury lift for Bosso: Chivayo delivers promised bus to Bosso

A promise made has been delivered.
In a gesture rich with meaning and ambition, Highlander’s benefactor Wicknell Chivayo has presented the club with a luxury bus, breathing new life into preparations for the 2026 Premier Soccer League campaign.

Highlanders have been informed that the bus is now ready for collection.
This could be a massive lift ahead of the 2026 Premier Soccer League (PSL) campaign.

It is a gesture that has ignited excitement among supporters and injected fresh optimism into Zimbabwe’s oldest football club.

The bus was unveiled through a video posted on Chivayo’s Facebook page under the rallying cry “Bosso Ngenkani”, instantly setting social media abuzz and reinforcing the sense that a new dawn may be breaking at Emagumeni.

The bus, a sleek 75-seater Higer executive, is a vehicle designed to transform the club’s travel experience. The bus is fully equipped with a leather interior, reclining seats, WiFi, television screens, an onboard toilet and executive facilities. It offers a level of comfort and professionalism befitting a club of Highlanders’ stature.

The arrival of the luxury bus not only eases that burden but sends a powerful message about ambition, dignity and standards as Bosso plots a return to the summit of Zimbabwean football.

Chivayo’s intervention comes at a crucial moment following the appointment of former Warriors captain and international football icon Benjani Mwaruwari as head coach. The businessman publicly applauded the decision, describing Mwaruwari’s pedigree, regional exposure and European playing experience as exactly what the club needs to chart a successful new course.

Beyond the bus, Chivayo has also committed a US$300 000 financial package aimed at stabilising and strengthening the club. The funds are set to assist in clearing outstanding player arrears, supporting the new coach’s contract and bolstering the squad through targeted recruitment ahead of the new season.

The support, Chivayo explained, is rooted in both personal conviction and legacy. He revealed that the gesture fulfils a promise made to his late uncle, former Vice-President John Landa Nkomo, a lifelong and passionate Highlanders supporter.

In honouring that promise, Chivhayo stressed that his involvement is purely that of a benefactor and fan, with no intention of controlling or taking over the club’s affairs.

Supporters have warmly welcomed the gesture, viewing it as a rare and meaningful show of backing at a time when local football has often struggled for tangible support. The improved logistics and financial relief are expected to boost morale within the squad and technical team as preparations for the 2026 campaign intensify.
