Prince Misuzulu Zulu (46) has been named as the preferred new AmaZulu King.

The late Queen Regent Mantfombi Dlamini-Zulu's will was read out on Friday evening, and it revealed she picked Misuzulu, her eldest son, to succeed King Goodwill Zwelithini.

King Zwelithini (the longest serving Zulu monarch) passed away in March due to coronavirus complications and the late Queen Regent passed away last week.

The Queen's will was read out by her lawyer on live television following her burial in the early hours of the morning.

Family, friends and dignitaries then paid their respects at a memorial service at the palace.

The Queen was fondly remembered for helping others and teaching villagers new skills.

Queen's Farewell

Queen Mantfombi Dlamini Zulu was buried in the early hours of Friday, in a private ceremony attended by only close members of the Swati and Zulu royal families.

Queen Mantfombi was married to King Goodwill Zwelithini in 1977 and together they had eight children, including the new king Misuzulu.

Like the way they stick to their identity.

Look at the picture very well....

There's one Baba Ijesha and Desmond Elliot amongst them.

Succession Battle

A succession battle looks likely as the King had six wives and more than two dozen children.

Queen Mantfombi was the King's third wife but the most senior as she was of royalty - from Eswatini (Swaziland).

However, the King's will is currently being disputed by the first wife.

Humans in animal skin


What an irony

Humans in animal skin
What an irony

Symbolises the prowess or skill of whatever animal you revere as a tribe. Wearing leopard skin represents strength, etc...

Zulu men always have fearful look but the king has no manly look, still looking boyish.

Congratulations to him May his reign bring peace to their kingdom.

The Zulu kingdom is still one of the standing ancient people with royalty and affluence.

Africa is a very rich place!

All hail the king!

leaking mouth, it's Honourable to be a Nigerian parrot especially at a time like this. Show me how different you are. Shift!

I see a very strong case
If it's by eldest by age...the new king is not supposed to be the king
I think his mother is from royal family that's why.
Let them go and look for the solution from their forefathers law...cos i know this is not the first time something like this has happened.

Did the late queen had the crown prince and current king out of wedlock ?
Because from the currents kings age (46) he was born in 1974 and his mother( the late queen ) got married in 1977.
I just want to know if something is missing . Or his the current king an adopted son before the queen got married ?

You're right, he looks approachable and kind.

I think it's time for the Zulu Bantus to rethink this their dress culture.

This is 2021 and other Africans have modernized their cultural dresses.. you can't be dressing like a leopard in 2021

I'm certain Zulus have never heard of Igboland. But fine, I'll pass on your malicious criticism.

Is that all?

This is not the first time Zulus are accepting a bastard prince as a successor to the Zulu throne, remember Chaka the Zulu was a bastard.

Secondly Zulus are also known to bury their royalties with with living humans, about 40 people were buried alive together with Chaka mother's corpse.
