There was drama in Harare on Saturday when a SNAKE reportedly slithered to an ATM machine at Barclays Angwa Street and then entered into a car.

Bewilderment and chaos reigned supreme as passers-by surrounded the car to get a closer view of the snake and its owner. Others were busy taking photos from the onset and managed to capture pictures of the snake and the car that it later entered.

The UNPROVEN reports from the shocked eyewitness are however conflicting. Some claim the snake ‘withdrew’ cash from the ATM while others claim it just went to the machine and returned to the car.

When the bemused crowd mobbed the car and asked the driver ,who had arrived a little while later, to explain the bizarre occurrence, he professed ignorance and unperturbedly asked them to release him so he could go home. ”Handizvizve zvamuri kutaura ini ndiregei ndiende kumba( I don’t know what you are talking about, let me go home),” he reportedly said.

The mob had no option but to let him go.

Reached for comment, Harare Police said they had not received a report of the incident. Barclays Bank officials declined to give a comment.
People mob the car that the snake entered.
Meanwhile one of the photos which shows the snake on the ATM machine has gone viral on social media, however it has come to our attention that the photo is not bona fide and is of a snake that also ‘visited’ a Barclays ATM in the UK.

Snakes are reportedly used in Juju/Black Magic folklore by their owners to go and ‘steal’ money from banks, financial institutions and wealthy individuals. They swallow the cash, return home to their masters where they then vomit the money for the owner to use as the wish. According to Legend few people however have the ability or ‘luck’ to see these mythical creatures so it is certainly a wonder how Hararians managed to get a glimpse of such an extra-ordinary occurrence.

The Snake
In 2013, Socialite, Wicknell Chivayo made headlines when some workers at a car dealer spotted a huge snake in his BMW X6 According to the reports in H-Metro, Wicknell left the X6 and went on about his other business. The workers at the car dealer then decided to clean the car and then came across a snake. One of them then called Wicknell to tell him what had just happened. To their surprise, B.I.G as Wicknell is also known, asked them why they were being over excited. “Hamuzive nyoka here?” he asked.

Sir Wicknell flatly denied the accusations and claimed the rumours was being peddled by haters who just could not handle his good fortune. IHarare
