Facts of the Case
Background
A dispute arose between two factions of the Apostolic Faith Mission in Zimbabwe church over control and leadership. After previous litigation (HC 9149/18 and HC 179/19) which was resolved in favor of the Madziyire group, the Chiangwa group (represented by Mr Manyika) brought an urgent application to interdict the respondents from using the church's registered name.
