Meetings between Zulu King MisuZulu kaZwelithini and ceremonial Ndebele King Bulelani Lobengula Khumalo - a legitimate descendant of founding Ndebele King Mzilikazi - has been widely described as a major historic event; part of a broader rapproachement between the Zulu and Ndebele nations, which share historical and ancestral ties.
The meetings symbolise a reunion between Zulu King Shaka and Ndebele nation founder King Mzilikazi, two historical military greats of the region during the early 19th century.
Shaka and Mzilikazi, who were friends and worked together to lay the foundation of the Zulu Kingdom, had a major historic split in 1822 at the height of Mfecane; times of trouble, a regional conflict which triggered massive migration from present-day South Africa all the way to Tanzania.
For years, there had been attempts to heal the historical split and the wound associated with Shaka and Mzilikazi’s consequential clash.
Shaka was the son of Zulu Chief Senzangakhona, while Mzilikazi was a progeny of a Khumalo clan Chief Mashobane in Zululand.
Mzilikazi helped Shaka build the Zulu Kingdom during its nascent stages before he left in a historic breakaway after disagreements over the spoils of Zulu military raids into neighbouring states, mostly the Sotho nation - cattle.
Whenever Zulu elders meet their Ndebele brethren, they always ask jokingly: "Ziphi inkomo zenkosi?" (where is the King's cattle).
Mzilikazi, a top Zulu chief and military commander of the time, left after refusing to surrender to Shaka the cattle he had raided.
Their subsequent split was rather acrimonious, although the two did not fight directly.
Mzilikazi fought battles and ruled parts of the Transvaal before he was further pushed north into Botswana and Zambia, then Zimbabwe.
His other group crossed directly from South Africa into Zimbabwe.
MisuZulu is the son of the late King Zwelithini, a descendant of Shaka's brothers through the bloodline of King Cetshwayo, King Mpande and King Dingane.
Dingane and Mpande were Shaka's half-brothers, Senzangakhona's sons from different mothers.
Bulelani is recognised by the mainstream Khumalo house as the legitimate heir to the Ndebele nation, which was overthrown by Cecil John Rhodes' colonial forces during the Anglo-Ndebele War in
in 1893.
His history is a bit complex due to historical twists and turns across Zimbabwe and South Africa.
Bulelani is a South African citizen. He was born and bred in Grahamstown (Makhanda) in the Eastern Cape where there is a Lobengula museum, although his descendants, specifically Njube, son of Lobengula, were taken from Zimbabwe to there by Rhodes in a bid to dismantle the Ndebele Kingdom, the last bulwark to colonial invasion.
Bulelani is a great-great-grandson of Lobengula, descending through Njube.
Originally, Bulelani's roots by ancestry are in present-day KwaZulu-Natal as his descendants came to Zimbabwe from there with their famous leader Mzilikazi.
They were then sent back to South Africa by colonial authorities.
Although his role is currently not recognised by the Zimbabwean government as a ceremonial king, Ndebeles have widely embraced him as their cultural leader.
There have been pretenders to the throne who include Peter Zwide KaLanga Khumalo and Stanley Raphael Tshuma who claims to be a Khumalo, calling himself King Mzilikazi II.
In September every year, the Ndebele nation commemorates Mzilikazi Day to mark his death in 1868.
The cultural event attracts huge crowds, bringing together the Ndebele nation and related bigger Nguni groups in South Africa, Zambia, Malawi and Tanzania.
Mozambique is being lobbied to send its delegations from the Shangani people, who are also Nguni descendants from the Zulus.
Shanganis - not Ndau or Tsonga - are of Nguni descent.

Something culturally significant happened today. Zulu King, Misizulu met with King Bulelani of the Matebele nation of King Mzilikazi. 200 years after King Shaka & Mzilikazi parted ways in war, the 2 nations have founded each other again. Africa mayibuye! @RealMzalaTom@MimiReeds

📹 Lawyer Doug Coltart has this afternoon filed criminal charges against Zanu PF central committee member Luckmore Tinashe Gapa who was filmed snatching his phone, and Nicholas Hamadziripi, seen slapping him at the City Sports Centre on Tuesday during a CAB3 public hearing
Absolute panic at FOX News. They accidentally admit on live TV that Iran holds the ultimate advantage in this war. The US is literally going bankrupt firing 4 MILLION dollar missiles at 35k drones, forcing them to desperately deploy untested laser tech.
This man is clearly seen on video slapping lawyer Doug Coltart inside the City Sports Centre in Harare as parliament held a public hearing on planned constitutional amendments. Who is he?
REVEALED: Doug Coltart’s assailant has been named as Nicholas Hamadziripi, a Zanu PF official from Churu constituency in Harare who has a history of leading violent attacks on opposition supporters
Look at how Gerrard treats Salah compared to Carragher.
Gerrard is arguably Liverpool’s greatest ever player yet he isn’t salty that Salah surpasses him in some people’s eyes.
Gerrard loves Salah because he put Liverpool back on its perch.
Ngizwe Mchunu and his toy soldiers, plus some misguided Khoi "Kings" and useless members of Contralesa are busy with a pathetic march in KuGompo City today.
They are marching over a coronation of a King of Igbo people. Igwe Ndigbo 🇳🇬
Igwe was corronated in KuGompo City CBD not long ago. He is expected to preside over Nigerian [Igbo people] affairs in Town.
The useless marchers like Ngizwe, from mountains and outbacks, are not asking themselves pertinent questions:
'why do our own Kings live in the mountains & inaccessible valleys of Rural areas?'
' Why are we not marching to Mhlanga Rocks or Centurion or Polokwane or Mthatha CBD?'
Those are the questions they should be asking themselves instead of harassing fellow Africans
VVD: Carragher will not start over Gomez, Matip and Konate.
VVD: "No and I'm serious about that. Carragher played many games for Liverpool but in the modern game Matip and Konate would be ahead of him.”
Average.

Back in March 2021, Lawrence Okolie told me about sparring the Itauma brothers, Karol and Moses, in preparation for his world title fight:
“The younger one - who has just turned 16 - he gives me some of the hardest sparring I’ve ever had in my life.”

🚨Patrice Evra blasts Jamie Carragher on poor Mo Salah Treatment at Liverpool:
🗣️ Evra: "I’m going to be completely honest with you, because you know me, I always speak my mind. I look at what is happening with Mo Salah at Liverpool and it actually baffles me. You have Liverpool legends like Jamie Carragher constantly playing down his achievements on television. Why? The man has won them everything!”
“Instead of these legends being out there singing Mo Salah’s songs everywhere they go, they stay quiet or they criticize. So what happens? Mo is forced to go on social media, posting his own stats and holding his own trophies just to remind his own people of the respect he deserves. He has to sing his own song because the guys who should be singing it are too busy trying to diminish him. It’s crazy!”
“This would never happen at Arsenal. Legends like Ian Wright and Thierry Henry protect their own and elevate their modern stars—like Bukayo Saka. At Liverpool, they’re making their BEST EVER player fight for his legacy. Very sad….𝗦𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲
