Ritual wife #1 – Inkhosikati (Queen) LaMatsebula: “The Great Wife” Queen LaMatsebula fulfilled all the requirements of the national councilors who appointed the king’s first wife. Like the first wife of any Swazi king, the “Great Wife” is a member of the Matsebula clan. She must be of good character and come from a good family. She is the one to hold special functions in rituals. However, as tradition prohibits, her son can never claim kingship.

Wife #7: Inkhosikati LaMasango, née Senteni Masango: “The High-School dropout” (Born: 1981. Married: 2000) When King Mswati III secretly chose his 7th bride, the Times of Swaziland ruffled the royal feathers when it referred to LaMasango as an irresponsible high-school dropout, noting that she’d been expelled for indiscipline and absenteeism from two different schools. The New York Times subsequently reported that Bheki Makhubu, the Sunday editor of the paper in question, was arrested, charged with defamation and forced to resign. Since then LaMasango has pursued her interest in painting, hosting auctions of her work to fund-raise for charity.

Wife #13: Inkhosikati LaNkambule, née Phindile Nkambule: “The Young And The Restless” (Born: 1990. Married: 2007) Inkhosikati LaNkambule who beat a glamorous TV presenter and Miss Swaziland in the 10,000 women race to capture the king’s interest, was chosen at the reed dance ceremony when she was 17. Her nomination was in violation with the rules Mswati himself had instituted, prohibiting Swazi women from getting married before the age of 18, but I guess it’s one rule for the king and another for his subjects, because any other man who breaks the “umchwasho” rule is either fined an animal, such as a cow, or is liable for a fine of about $160.

This is very I interesting how they preserved the culture and traditions. But what is appalling is that this country is one of the poorest in Africa and has the highest rate of HIV infection. At least some of the wives are very involved in the uplifting the community! |
