On 10th March 1910, Prophet Isaiah Shembe formed an African Church referred to as Nazareth Baptist Church in the holy mountain Nhlangakazi. This church was formed under difficult conditions of apartheid when Blacks and Africans were not allowed to convene any gatherings worse the colour of Shembe’s skin being Black. it was because spiritual motivation and understanding of his task that he never surrender but continued under those difficult conditions. He had to be arrested, beaten, insulted and faced all sought of things because of being black. Of particular was because he was transforming religion in South African since the then religions were able to make people disregard their tradition and values. We should wish all Nazareth happy 100 years and also wish them well in all future endeavors. It was this Prophet that met with ISGUNGU Leaders to discuss ideas of African Unity against apartheid. Those Leaders after two year in 1912 formed a peoples’ parliament, liberation movement in South African which we now call it an AFRICAN NATIONAL CONGRESS. It is in that spirit that Cde Jacob Zuma; our President will address them on Sunday at eBuhleni (Durban-iNanda)
