By Jane Mlambo| The United Kingdom luxury vehicles seller GVE London has apologised over a viral social media video where one of their employees announced that a Zimbabwean minister had purchased a Rolls Royce they were in the process of shipping to Harare.

In a statement, GVE London said the information shared by their employee that the Rolls Royce had been bought by a Zimbabwean minister was incorrect.

“GVE London would like to apologise for any misunderstanding caused by a recent video posted on our social media implying that a vehicle we recently sold was being sold to a Minister in Zimbabwe. This was incorrect, the employee that made the statement was not involved in the sale of the vehicle and did not know that this vehicle was actually being sold to a private individual. We apologise for any inconvenience caused,” the company said.

The video in question set social media ablaze with online publications reporting that Youths, Sports and Recreation deputy minister Tinoda Machakaire was the owner of the Rolls Royce.

Machakaire has since refuted the claims saying he already has a Rolls Royce.

He added that though he has capacity to buy a Rolls Royce, the one filmed on the trending video did not belong to him.

Commenting on the GVE statement, popular Hip Hop musician Stunner urged Zimbabweans to desist from buying into every social media story.

“Nyangwe mota isiri yenyu munobvira honorable @machakairetino . Its Our fault we believe everything said on social media, kuri kuuraiwa kwemunhu panotofiwa,” said Stunner.
