he Rev. Benjamin Nzimbi, Archbishop of the Anglican Church of Kenya, was praised this week for the recent public apology he made to HIV/AIDS victims on behalf of the church.
Nzimbi, who spoke to a group of Christian and Muslim clergy during an AIDS workshop on Wednesday, apologised for the Church likening AIDS to “a disease for sinners and a curse from God” and said the Church would work to end the stigma associated with the pandemic.
“Anglican Archbishop Benjamin Nzimbi on Wednesday made one of the bravest speeches by any religious leader in recent times,” the Nairobi Daily Nation wrote in an editorial Thursday.
