Cashgate fugutive Limumba dies with Zimbabwe socialite Ginimbi in fiery Rolls Royce crash
Cashgate-linked fugitive Limumba Karim has died on Sunday morning following a fatal car crash together with prominent Zimbabwean, socialite and businessman Genius Kadungure, affectionately known as Ginimbi, along the Borrowdale road in Harare.
Ginimbi is alleged to have been speeding at the time of the accident following a night of partying at Club Dreams in the capital.
Also in the Rolls Royce which had a head-on collision with a blue Honda Fit was Zimbabwean socialite and video vixen Michelle Amuli, professionally known as Mimi Moana, who died. A few hours earlier, Moana had been celebrating her 26th birthday at the Club Dreams.
The driver of the Honda Fit car that got involved in the accident with Ginimbi survived the crash but is said to be in shock.
Witness Danny Kuwanga, who was one of the first people at the scene, said Kadungure was speeding.
“It happened in front of my eyes. He was speeding. He first overtook me and as he tried to overtake a second vehicle, that’s when he crashed into the Honda Fit driving the opposite way,” Kuwanga said in quotes reported by Zimlive.
Kuwanga said he was joined by three other man and they pulled Kadungure away from the vehicle which was now a fireball.
“The girls didn’t make it out. They were just crying inside the burning car. We couldn’t do anything,” he added.
In his final post on Instagram, where he had over 600,000 followers, Kadungure posted a video, declaring: “Guys it’s time to go out, it’s gonna be going down. We’re going to Dreams (nightclub) in the next few minutes, it’s gonna be going down. It’s Moana’s birthday, we’re going to pop champagne, it’s gonna be champagne showers tonight, see you there.”
As he gets into the vehicle, Kadungure tells his followers he’s “driving Rolls Royce Wraith.” The video cuts out as ‘Hello’ by Kabza de Small and DJ Mapholisa blasts from the US$500,000 motor.
Limumba escaped justice from Malawi and was based in South Africa as he was answering a case together with former Budget Director Paul Mphwiyo over involvement in the cashgate scandal, the biggest corruption scandal in Malawi’s history that took place in 2013.

And a coffin has been found in a separate bedroom of Ginimbi. He bought it a week before his death.Whether he knew that he will die or the coffin was for a cult, nobody knows.
Koma mukungoona kuyakhula moyelekedwa apa. Mwaona video ya ngozi yake? mind you guys leave everything aside , Lumumba was someone’s child, lover, nephew, brother, his family are broken beyond. chonde mayakhulidwe abale muzibwezako, I don’t know him but I have cried. No more running at peace now. RIP ❤
Sis Nagama when someone dies please never ever think that he/she goes to rest in peace NO!!that place is another world!!kukakolola zomwe tinafesa padziko lapansi pano whether good or bad
So we don’t know which is which only Almighty knows
Kuyankhula Mwa ndithe ndithe. Iwe unafapo??
But God is a Merciful God. not for us to judge.Karim RIP.
so apart from abscondin with our our moenies and amakasakaza ndlamazo ndi azimai leading a flushy life!!! now we want to spend an 8 corner casket hope his family and fell cashgaters can cough up financing this else why bringing the shreds of him. anyway fellow cashgaters / family who enjoyed his money will
The guys burnt to death alive. Stop talking nonsense. It was a gruesome accident you wouldn’t wish your worst enemy. They were crying as the car burned to ashes. There are no bodies, just ash. Don’t just talk as if you have no soul or you are a son of Satan. Have sympathy for their families and loved ones. Lumumba has left 3 kids.leave the judging to God.
Remember that poor souls were lost in our public hospitals because of no medication as resources were frauded by these cashgaters. God has his own way of addressing poor souls complaints
You should not curse the dead. Let their souls rest in peace no matter what they did or left on this earth.
No need to shout u fassy boy
rest in peace fellow brothers and sisters
Let us remember the story of Anamwali khumi in the Bible, we may be caught unaware. Their deaths should teach all of us a lesson to be prepared and do only those things that will glorify God.
Which Peace are you people reffering to?
This is a very stupid and insensitive comment. Imagine your loved one burning to death alive, leaving behind 3 kids. Find God my friend. You are lost.
he should have died after successfully answering his charges. As it s he has gone with suposedly our money. But id he did not want to come back to Malwi when he was alive why come over with his useless remains
Look it doesn’t matter my uncle should still Rest In Peace he is not useless he is a powerful man that was always there for his kids and I’m so devastated for my cousin it’s not right what you are saying please don’t say such again
Dan, where do you work?
May his soul rest in Hell, u will run but u will never hide, THIEF
Ma cash gate nonse mutha ndi ngozi
No-one is going to leave earth alive.
Let he without sin cast the first stone. Inu simunalakwilepo mulungu? Bwanji atapanga zoti inu mufe mawa? Kapena mwana wanu afe pangozi? You have never lost a loved one in your life? Osamayankhula zakumaliseche
Ok, you can also die whilst driving expensive car like that one, i thought its death prooftu. Useless!!
Another idiot from the great Nyasaland
Baba leave him alone if it wasn’t for this incident. This buffoon would have lived his whole life in that “death prooftu” car. Blutu weni weni.
death comes to us all, when your time comes nothing can protect you
