📖 AFM in Zimbabwe — Split
Aftermath of 100 Years Celebrations — What Went Wrong?
by Tendai Risinamhodzi
Foreword by Dr T.I Murefu • Rev A Chinyemba • Dr Cossam Chiyangwa

🔴 A century of unity — fractured at the moment of celebration 💔
🟠 The Apostolic Faith Mission splits after 100 years of ministry in Zimbabwe
🟡 Written by an insider with the courage to ask the hard questions
🟢 Leadership, accountability & governance failures laid bare — without fear
🔵 Three respected voices write the foreword — because the story needed witnesses
🟣 A cautionary tale for every church, ministry & institution in Zimbabwe
⚫ When celebrating becomes the beginning of the end 🧱

💡 The Financial Fault Lines:
At the heart of the split were deep concerns over the management of centenary celebration funds, a lack of financial transparency & accountability within church leadership. Millions raised for the 100 years celebrations became a source of profound mistrust — exposing how money, power & ministry can become a dangerous combination when governance structures are weak.

✝️ The Bigger Lesson:
This book is not just about the AFM — it is about what happens to any institution when it stops being accountable to the people it serves. Church, company or government — the warning is the same.

🇿🇼 Every AFM member, church leader & Zimbabwean Christian needs to read this.
