The great light that illuminates the Harare skyline is nothing new – Devine Assignments gave us one as in downtown Harare, and when Private Lounge opened its doors in the City of Kings and Queens. dangerous for anyone who walks after hours, the part of Kwame Nkrumah where Club Sankayi is nestled is now so well lit at night, it is hard to believe that a few months ago, the kids and thugs patrolling these alleyways Spooky After a hastily organized badtail of journalists, while the place, barely over 80% completed, opened on May 24 this year, the whole region has since been transformed
. are popular for ladies marauding the night. But since thigh sales and lights have not come together, enterprising women have since dug deeper into avenues in search of rampant roads to invade, where they know their quirky customers feel free to choose. The Sunday Mail Society has recently returned to the street children's avenue, now brightly lit, to see if Genius "Ginimbi" Kadungure has kept his promise, to bring the big spenders into the southern part of Samora Machel
. Club Sankayi offers bottle services, where guests pay a minimum of $ 500 US in advance. The money paid covers the entrance for a group of six, a guarded VIP table and all the drinks that the money can buy.
To test these and other claims – our team has reserved a table. Upon arrival at the surprisingly clean, well-lit and organized "parking" at Kwame Nkrumah, between the sixth and seventh streets, dozens of cars were parked outside with people waiting for the hour. opening of 21h. As we parked, the doors opened and a small queue began to form at the entrance. That's the kind of things that we only see in movies.
A security guard asked us if we had booked a table or if we were just walk-ins. Once we confirmed that we had a reservation to give him our "secret code", he quickly used his walkie-talkie to convey a message to someone we later learned to be the head of the security parked in the club. The security chief sent an internal bouncer to pick us up and in no time we were at the door, where a gorgeous woman confirmed our code and allowed us.
From the door – a sinuous, tall and dark beauty escorted us to our table, where we were handed to our hostess and waitress for the night. With a bouncer who was protecting us from the intruders, a hostess to bend to all our whims and a waitress who watched us every five minutes or so – we were at the dry house. In no time, the godfather Templeman, the entertainment and marketing director of the place was at our table
"Why did not you say you were coming? I would have organized a special treat, "says Templeman to our lost faces
A colleague whispered softly in my ear:" What's more special than that? "
Templeman, being the salesman, began preaching:" We sell a service here.We have 30 security guards on the outside and for all three, there is a walkie-talkie.The dogs you saw with some of the guards are not necessarily for the thieves and the thieves, but for people who sell drugs.We do not want drugs here and these dogs are trained to catch somebody with drugs. "
At the entrance, we had been scanned in case we carry firearms or dangerous weapons. The security inside was as close as it was outside, except that there were plenty of nice hostesses inside the club, and waitresses and energetic waitresses as well as a good atmosphere.
We learned from Templeman that the street lights of the club were the culmination of an affair. between Ginimbi and the Harare City Council, and that only 60% of the lighting had been installed last week.
As the night wore on, we witnessed the "special treatment" that Templeman had talked about earlier. At one point, we saw a host of beauties that had been relaxed earlier when we walked in, carrying lights that spelled out some Harare business-cum-socialite name.
They took bottles of champagne. A colleague asked why this was not done for us. The answer was simple. Among the expensive bottles of whiskey, vodka and wine purchased by this group, there were two bottles of Champagne Armand de Brignac known as Jay Z's Ace of Spades, each worth US $ 1,200.
. Zimbabwe is sure that's the real deal. No wonder that a multitude of beauties called "champagne girls" accompany such expensive drinks at a table.
The DJs go wild too when it happens: "Big up Boss Ginimbi" they announce to the microphone from time to time, not that we had close-ups that night, my colleagues and I looked irrelevant, we were the poorest of those who occupied the tables. Images of big spenders would also be shown on a big screen in the club, but it's by consent.
"We also respect the privacy.If a customer does not want the attention and the champagne girls, we respect that and we can even increase the security to make sure that they appreciate the club as they prefer, "said Templeman.
Most major clubs do not allow smoking the coolest environment possible and to protect non-smokers. But in Sankayi, the extractors do their work all night, even extracting the colored fog constantly discharged by the smoke machines.
What winter is winter? Of the club's eight heaters, only two were on and they seemed to be doing the job because the place was packed – nothing beats a human body to produce heat. A friend who arrived much later and who was dressed like an Eskimo was "cooked" all night while he had thrown his jacket inspired by the zero degree temperature on a pajama shirt. We only texted him – and he was at our table without any problems, either in the parking lot or at the door.
We left after midnight after using about half of our US $ 500. From where I come from, US $ 500 buys enough luxury groceries for a month. We had the option of getting the change or using it at a later date – we chose the first one. And while our security guard and Templeman were escorting us to our cars after midnight, I was happy to finally be able to converse with the entertainment director without the blurry speakers interrupting him.
"Ah Elder, volume 30% ipapa, tikavhura mapombi tinoita zvimwe (the volume is at 30% by the time we speak, if we play it thoroughly, we could cause chaos)," said Templeman while He said farewell, obviously eager to return to the club and continue his offensive
Indeed Sankayi is a playground for the well-heeled. We saw them. The guys who have more cars than some car rental companies. For those who follow them on social networks like Instagram, they know that these people are globe-trotters – from South America and the Caribbean, from the Balearic Islands off Spain, to London, New York or even Hong Kong – their pockets allow
They fly in first clbad, and like Ginimbi, the owner of Club Sankayi, they make excesses. In Zimbabwe, most of these spenders are businessmen or heirs of some vast empires. The athletes of the country, at least those based locally, can not afford this lifestyle and we know where they hang out. Those who engage in celebrity worship, the Sankayi Club is their church because they are lucky enough to drink eccentricities from these characters.
Thanks to a seismic shift in Zimbabwe's politics, which has led to better relations with the world. is booming. A fruit at hand that they call tourism – tourism was the first to stand out. Tourism stakeholders say this year that the tourism industry is recording the best arrivals in the first quarter and the occupation of hotels for 20 years
Hotel and tourism companies are growing, more and more Airlines fly to RGM International Airport or Victoria Falls. The international airport, and they bring tourists. Tourists come to spend – and these are clubs like these and many other big names in the nightlife circuit like Devine Assignments – helping to root out the most important currencies . Sunday mail.
