"Speaking Truth to Power"
In the 1980s, the Rev Useni Sibanda flew home from his UK studies to Zimbabwe, not long after it achieved independence. A civil war was raging, and inflation was rampant. You could easily hand over a trillion dollar note for just one egg. Now Useni works with the Zimbabwe Christian Alliance, a Christian advocacy organisation addressing social, political, economic and humanitarian issues affecting the country's poor and vulnerable communities. What might we learn from a group which is never party-political, yet never afraid to speak truth to power?
