Durban - Prince Simakade Zulu, the new contender for the Zulu throne, has finally spoken out about his ambition for the throne, telling Independent Media that a statement attributed to him that he did not intend to challenge King Misuzulu was a “deliberate” distortion.
Prince Simakade said a statement from May 12 which was attributed to him, purportedly saying he would not challenge his brother, King Misuzulu, was “misunderstood or deliberately distorted”.

Senior political journalist Sihle Mavuso reflects on his coverage of two Zulu royal funerals and the tense succession debate as he takes readers behind-the-scenes at the royal palace.
Beyond one’s call of duty as a journalist to write and inform the public, one indirectly records history. That was the case for me from March 12 to 18 and April 29 to May 8 this year.
The process of indirectly archiving history started on March 12, when King Goodwill Zwelithini, the longest-reigning Zulu king, passed away at age 72, throwing the monarch and the Zulu nation into mourning.

Nongoma - Prince Mangosuthu Buthelezi, the Zulu nation’s traditional prime minister, has expressed concern for the safety of newly named King Misuzulu kaZwelithini after the South African Police Service (SAPS) started withdrawing its VIP protection.
The new king is the son of the late King Goodwill Zwelithini and the recently departed Zulu Queen Regent Mantfombi Dlamini-Zulu, sister to King Mswati III.
The SAPS’s midnight move comes despite clear indications that the new king is facing threats as his naming on Friday evening was vehemently challenged by some princes and he had to be whisked away to safety by assault rifle-wielding security personnel.

Nongoma – Unlike during the burial of the late King Goodwill Zwelithini in mid-March this year where the Zulu regiment of men played a prominent role, the burial of Zulu Queen Regent Mantfombi Dlamini-Zulu will be dominated by a regiment of women.
This was revealed by the leader of the Zulu men’s regiment, Mlandeni “Mgilija” Nhleko, on Wednesday during an interview outside Khangela palace in Nongoma where the mourning for the queen is taking place.
Nhleko said while they would be present during most of the burial activities, this time around their role would be minimal.
