Thousands of South Africans gathered in their beautiful traditional outfits for the coronation of Zulu’s new King. Men and women came out in their numbers and gathered outside of the marble palace on the hills of Nongoma, a small town in the southeastern province of KwaZulu-Natal, the Zulu heartland.
It is believed that the Zulu King is the most influential traditional monarchy in SA.
47-year-old Misuzulu Zulu is said to succeed his father Goodwill Zwelithini who passed on in march 2021 after 50 years in charge.
Men and women in colourful traditional outfits assembled on Saturday outside the marble palace on the hills of Nongoma, a small town in the southeastern province of KwaZulu-Natal, the Zulu heartland.
Tens of thousands more were expected to arrive to honour the new sovereign.
“Today, the king will be acknowledged by the whole Zulu Nation,” said Misuzulu’s sister, Princess Ntandoyesizwe Zulu, 46.
