    Judgment No. SC 48/2012 1 Civil Appeal No. SC 180/09 & SC 130/10 REPORTABLE ZLR (34 ) THE CHURCH OF THE PROVINCE OF CENTRAL AFRICA v THE DIOCESAN TRUSTEES FOR THE DIOCESE OF HARARE SUPREME COURT OF ZIMBABWE MALABA DCJ, ZIYAMBI JA & OMERJEE AJA HARARE, OCTOBER 22 & NOVEMBER 19, 2012 A P de Bourbon SC, with him T Mpofu, for the appellant T M Kanengoni with him C Nyika, for the respondent MALABA DCJ: There are two appeals against judgments of the High Court. The first decision appealed against is in case No. HC 4327/08 whilst the second appeal is against the judgment in case No. HC 6544/07. Both decisions were made by the same judge. At the centre of the dispute in each case is the question whether those people who had been members of the Board of Trustees for the Diocese of Harare relinquished the right to control the appellant’s property on 21 September 2007. Put differently, but directly, the question raised by both appeals is; did those people who had been members of the Board of Trustees for the Diocese of Harare withdraw their membership from the appellant and ipso facto resign their offices thereby losing the right to control its property such as church buildings, houses, schools, motor vehicles and funds in banks? The appellant shall hereinafter be referred to as “the Church”, or “the Province” or “the Appellant Church” as the context permits. Judgment No. SC 48/2012 2 Civil Appeal No. SC 180/09 & SC 130/10 Who are the parties involved in the dispute over the right of control and occupation of the property? The Appellant Church is a voluntary association of members whose main objective is to hold the faith of Jesus Christ and act in accordance with the doctrines in which it is embodied.

  • A Critical Historical Evaluation of the Formation of the Anglican Province of Zimbabwe (APZ) by Bishop Nolbert Kunonga
    Article A Critical Historical Evaluation of the Formation of the Anglican Province of Zimbabwe (APZ) by Bishop Nolbert Kunonga Graham A Duncan https://orcid.org/0000-0002-2583-1914 University of Pretoria [email protected] Farai Mutmiri University of Pretoria Abstract The continued appointments of white expatriate priests as rectors of Zimbabwean parishes constituted a challenge to the Quest for Belonging in the post-independence period in Zimbabwe. A substantial challenge to the status quo came from Bishop Nolbert Kunonga with the formation of the Anglican Province of Zimbabwe in his apparent attempt at “belonging” and indigenisation. However, subsequent developments testify to Kunonga’s domineering leadership style, his disregard for the doctrines, laws and traditions of the denomination. Keywords: Anglican Province of Zimbabwe (APZ); Bishop Nolbert Kunonga; Church of the Province of Central Africa (CPCA); M. L. Daneel; Quest for Belonging Introduction The Anglican Diocese of Harare found itself being dragged through a decade of turmoil which ran from 2002 to 2012, by actions of its sitting bishop, Bishop Nolbert Kunonga, who became bent on severing ties with the Church of the Province of Central Africa (CPCA). In the process Bishop Nolbert Kunonga formed his own province called the Anglican Province of Zimbabwe (APZ) but, notwithstanding this, was determined to hold on to the properties that belonged to the CPCA. This unusual development did not conform to the notion of Quest for Belonging as propounded by Daneel (1987) and discussed below.
