Njongonkulu Winston Hugh Ndungane was the Archbishop of Cape Town and Primate of the Anglican Church of Southern Africa. He decided to enter the church during his three-year sentence on Robben Island as a political prisoner in the early 1960s. In 2006, he launched African Monitor, a pan-African not-for-profit body which seeks to monitor how the Western world meets its commitments to the MDGs and how recipient countries fulfil their part of the agreement.
