An evening with Henry Olonga

Date: 21 June 2012  7.30pm

Henry Olonga was the first black cricketer to play for his native Zimbabwe. At the 2003 cricket world cup he and Andy Flower (the current England coach) wore black armbands to 'mourn the death of democracy under Mugabe in Zimbabwe' A warrant for his arrest for treason (which carried the death penalty) was issued and he never went home. He is a superb singer and fearless in proclaiming his Christian faith and is well worth listening to
