13 April 2015
Spread the love


The Apostolic Faith Mission Church, AFM, presided over a rigged election in January when they elected their new President, court papers state in a development that could destroy the church’s credibility, a phenomenon previously known to the political arena where politicians are suing each other over electoral fraud.
AFM today saw (13) thirteen senior pastors approach the High Court challenging the election of Reverend Aspher  Madziyire  as their president on January 31  this  year.
In their court application the pastors said Reverend Madzire stole the election by evading the Workers Council which is the Church’s Electoral College.
They further accuse him of conducting the election the ZANU (PF) way of taking down the serial numbers of the voters’ registration slips.
“The defendant violated the rights of the plaintiff to be in the workers council that was going to vote for a president of the Church.
“The Workers Council is due to meet on the 26th of April and there was never a call for the Workers Council on the 31st January 2015 which culminated in the election of 1st defendant as president of the church”, read part of the application which was filed at the High Court by Zivanai  Macharaga of Mugiya and Macharaga Law Chambers on behalf of the disgruntled thirteen pastors.
The pastors also accuse Reverend Maziyire of intimidating and victimizing pastors in the church.
According to Macharaga the defendant has up to three weeks to respond to the application.

  1. There is no church isiri kuwanda ma members. Even pasi pe miti vari kuwanda. Thats no measure of success. PaRufaro too people have multiplied its no surprise even Muma prisons there are more people than they were 10 yrs back. Your measure of effectiveness using increased membership is very pathetic. We need development of church assets, Rufaro is still the same as it was from the time Madziyire became President of church. ma toilets, water supply and the auditorium Gotekwa now can only provide shade to a few. Zvanga zvaakudavo someone with a different view. I dont question kuparidza shoko but a leader has to have more than kungoparidza after all many many vafundisi vanoparidza shoko

  4. So you measure your success by material things? indeed a new breed of Simon the Sorcerers is here! Spiritual drought? if you were really capable of hearing from God you wouldn’t be embarrassing yourself with such mundane gibberish. the Bible says in the last days your sons and daughters shall prophesy, it doesnt say they shall be prophesied to. So dont talk of hearing from God when it is only one tall man who hears on behalf of everyone.

  7. Are you serious? Have you been to any conference since the breakaways? We now have more members than before. People are getting saved in droves which is the main priority of the Church. Rev Madziire is a legend, a luminary indeed. We will not be moved by these fabrications, we know who exactly is behind this, but God will ultimately judge.

  13. Kune avo varikushaya kuti voendepi, open your eyes, Pane church yakabuda muAFM imomo ikanoita zvine musoro, ignore the haters version, this church now owns a lot of properties;-
    1. It does not struggle to build 50 000 seater basilica in two years it had achieved more than what AFM failed to do kuRufaro despite money being collected all year round.
    2. It now owns a TV chanel something AFM failed to do in all their more than 107years of existence.
    3. It owns luxury buses all five of them only acquired in one year just by the Ladies department.
    4. It is one church that has proved to be a movement rather than a monument, AFM systems and operations belongs in the museum.
    5. AFM is still nostalgic about the days of Chihari as the president and now they no longer hear from God, they are experiencing spiritual drought.
    6. At least enda kuchurch yekuti unoburitsa mari yako uchiziva kuti irikushandei uye inoberekei muupenyu hwako.

  15. Forbid these elections. Its all abput money. The love of money beyond the love to forward the word of God has led to this. Madziyire must gracefully resign rather than allow the church to go into confusion. After all what has the church achieved during his more than 10 yrs as president of church? He should leave as a sign of humility if he is humble and corrupted with fame and money
