Big Brother Africa (BBA) winner Wendall Parson is suing a local aviation company for breach of contract after a deal to ferry school children around Zimbabwe soured. Wendall who is a commercial pilot by profession had been lined up to feature on tours around the country and interact with school children as they visited destinations that were to include Great Zimbabwe and the Victoria Falls.

The problem however arose when the tours were abruptly cancelled by the Civil Aviation Authority of Zimbabwe (CAAZ) because Fresh Air had been operating with a temporary Air Operating Certificate.
Chief Operating Officer of Fresh Air, Matipedza Karase, said that the reality TV star was seeking to sue and has already enlisted the help of a legal counsellor. Karase said that Parson was paid US $7500 as an appearance fee for the one trip to Masvingo but is now demanding a further $24,500.

Karase who is no stranger to controversy as he has been sued several times before- unsuccessfully- further alleged that the BBA winner, is trying to benefit from an idea that was never his.When Zimbo Jam called Wendall, to find out the reason for suing Fresh Air, his response was, “I have to speak to my lawyer about that because things are still in the process, I am not saying I am and I am not saying I am not.” In a recent interview Wendall revealed that he had not even touched a dime of his prize money.
