NBC is happy to announce its participation in the introduction of the Council of 72, a body that comprises pioneering founders within the indigenous churches in South Africa mainly the Zionist and Apostolic Faith Based Organisations under the All African Federation of Churches (AAFC). 

The 20^th November saw a number of eminent leaders, prophets and healers within the realm of African Ecclesiastical Churches drawn from both the Zionist and Apostolic Faith, assembling at the University of Johannesburg for the installation of the Council of 72 under AAFC ,a mother body of African Indigenous Churches which has a membership of more than 10 million members drawn from the Zionist and Apostolic Faith Based Churches who came together to talk with one voice. 

AAFC’s auspicious Council of 72 led by His Worship Honourable President Archbishop Nchime Tsekedi the founder father, was pleased to announce the AAFC partnership with NBC. The partnership is borne out of mutual benefit and interests especially for those ordinary members of the AAFC who often struggle to receive attention from most businesses in this sector. NBC is renowned for its preparedness to serve the needs of the marginalised in our society. It is this preparedness to associate itself with those in our society needing most attention that has seen NBC grow from strength tom strength over the years. 

NBC is confident that the latest partnership with a group that serve over 10 million members will enable it to reach many people who desperately need funeral related services at a reasonable competitive price. It is a partnership that is desperately needed amongst this target group hence NBC is committed to go out of its way to make sure that its employees provides excellent service that will keep this partnership growing.
