This man's name was doing head to head with Mandelas, Rev Desmond Tutu in terms of popularity then. He really lived up to a very ripe age.

May his soul rest in peace,,
These are leaders that fought and stood firlm for what they believed irrespective of external gi pressures and there people believed till death ,

Not some dubious and greedy kind of leaders we have here who are only interested in their personal gain and care less for the masses,,,

Not sure he had many wives. His son and I were in uni. I think people are confusing him with the king of swaziland

Yeah definitely. He had one wife who passed away in 2019.

5 of his kids have also passed - who's the one you went to varsity with?

The end of Buthelezi ....is an end of an African traditional era of the Lion King of the jungle...

Adieu and rest in peace...after the long struggle of life

Oh my!

To be honest I can't remember his name. We were both at SOAS Uni Lond way way back. His course must have been law or law and something because we had some lecturers in common. We spoke a bit but the mood was not in his fathers favour in those days so he kept to himself a lot.

Sorry to hear so many of them have passed. I will chase up the name with an old friend.

I'm only interested in what he said or his opinion during the xenophobic attack on Nigerians, anybody with Information on that answer me.

On a lighter note; these RSA people and their names sounding like bulldozers L ;DL

Rip to the dead.

Yeah, Buthelezi's image was bad in the 90s.

These are the kids, might refresh your memory.

Hmmm,nothing last for ever, nonetheless, man would always be remembered by what he/she has done.

Buthelezi of the Inkatha fame.

The guy almost caused civil war amongst the black SouthAfricans.

My condolence to his families, the Zulu nation and the people and government of South Africa.

May his soul rest in peace.

I remember when he was giving the anc a tough time. Mandela struck a deal with him and made him minister of interior to stop the raging violence.

A great man. Most anti apartheid south africans were great men but they all need to pay allegiance to the role nigeria played and even pioneered against apartheid in south africa every now and then.

Was Lethuxolo male? He was a bit older than me but I can't see him being over 67 today.

Yes, it was difficult for him -the ANC was the toast of the 70's student unions in the uk and his father was seen as a betrayer of the cause.
