Thousands of people attended the crowning of the new king of South Africa’s largest ethnic group, the Zulu nation.
King Misuzulu took the throne at a ceremony at the palace in Nongoma.
But there has been a controversy in the run-up to the coronation.
Al Jazeera’s @Fahmida Miller reports from Nongoma, South Africa.

Long live all African monarchies it’s part of our culture
Islam is d way to heaven ❤️
@ff tapper Jesus is the way to heaven.
lost children, chasing fairy tales…
@paladro The Zulus were colonizers, but I guess it doesn’t matter when it’s your own people. I love the hypocrisy.
@CAPTAIN HOOK of course
Saw something like this in King Kong.
I want you to go watch The Northman and tell us how that movie is different from what we see in African tribal rituals and monarchies.
@TRUTH same thing when I watch vikings pure savages.
yeah man
The Zulus The SouthAfricans ,
The Children Of HamBinNoah.

The Bantu are the descendants of Noah,Shem and Eber.
We are getting ready for the world to wake up and bow to the first born of Noah and to to he descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Vayetze.
@NNM Zulu. Eber, it’s a tribe in Nigeria the Igbos. Bantu Nguni are from Guni … Just to correct there mntase…
@Coco it’s ok to be corrected.
It’s out of love to see it right to fix what is wrong to your fellow human being and I thank you for your care.
However,Eber is also the grandson of Noah through Shem.
I think we must now take notice of words like Habe! EWEH, EHHE,EH, AHYE,AH etc spoken by Bantu ethnic groups.
Those are words defining our God and forefathers.
@NNM Zulu. 🙏🙏🙏 We are all learning. This has been hidden to us for a long time… South Africans are still very sleepy when it comes to this truth. I’m happy to see that some of us are trying…
Ham? We are not of Ham. We are born from Shem. Not Ham.

Let me just be a *Zulu* for a moment :
1. _Zulus have their own province KZN._
2. _More than 50% celebs are Zulus_
3. _They say Zulus Comes to Jozi to drive taxis, but those taxis are not owned by Vhendas or Pedis they’re owned by Zulus_
@Tumizasation Tumi Everything I’ve written is facts. The world is multicultural place. The word “tribal” has a negative connotation in Africa. Because the oppressors used media to stare the pot between different kingdoms. It is not “tribalism” but it’s IDENTIFICATION. If I identified myself as Zulu there’s nothing wrong with that until those who claim to be educated claim otherwise!! We are not one thing, but we are spiritual being and we are many things and more. Just because the oppressors stripped us all what we had and presented that doesn’t mean that we have to do the job for them and stripped ourselves all what we are.

4. _Taxis have Zulu names_ (siyaya, impendulo, sesfikile inyathi
5. _You get surnames like Zulu” Sifiso Zulu” but you won’t get Nombreakfast Xhosa, Gizara Venda or Tebogo Sotho_
6. *_KZN GDP_*_ is the second largest in the country_
No need to be a tribalist just blow your trumpet with your people no need to be arrogant
We do. T. K Mopedi (pronounced Mopedi) is the former Prime Minister of Qwa Qwa homeland. Mopedi surname is the name of the Bapedi tribe.
What is bizzare is that people who bear the surname Mopedi do not belong to Bapedi tribe. Why? Because the founder of Bapedi tribe is one of the founders of Sotho tribes.
Ey nawa ke lama comment ezinhlanya eziphilela ukusihlaza bakwethu ayi, sekungathi sonke esingamaZulu siyahlanya kazi yini kangaka ay😔😔😔
Where do other tribes enter in a Zulu celebration. Stop having an inferior complex and celebrate leave other people In peace
@Lesedi Buthelezi I thought I’m the only 1 but hey! Asikho laptop.
7. _Most TV shows are in Zulu_
8. _Zulus are the most popular ethnic group. If you go overseas seas they would assume you are Zulu._
9. _Zulus are the only African tribe in the English dictionary_
10. _Zulus have their own monarch the most respective Kingdom_
11. _They make more than one 3rd of the black population they dominate 2 provinces _*_KZN_*_ and _*_GP_*
12. _Zulu film “Yesterday” was nominated for an Oscar_
13. _Zulu acapella Ladysmith Black Mambazo has won 4 Grammy awards_
14. _The _*_lion king_*_ is in Zulu_
Stop lions king is not in Zulu only a song is Zulu
Kzn GDP owned by indians
15. _The only nation in the world to defeat the British Red army were the Zulus_
16. _If people die they go ezulwuni not eswatini._
17. _Zulus have their foot ball team “Amazulu FC”_
18. _Every where you go in 🇿🇦 South Africa you will find a Zulu_
19. _Zulus have their own beer utshwala besizulu_
20. _Unlimited _*_Human Race_*_ comrades marathon is in _*_KZN_*
@Neku Kubheka their history won’t fall on your lap you need to read and research
@Lulu yaz ini what ever 😏
The Zulus never defeated the British Army. They lost two other battles on the same day as Isandlwana. Inyezane and Rorkes Drift. The also lost later on at Gingindlovu, Khambula and Ulundi.
All they defeated at Isandlwana was one half of the 3rd Column under Chelmsford. That’s not defeating the ‘British Army’.
@Lyndon CMP it shows you don’t the history or you don’t want to admit it’s history from the book 📖 😅🇿🇦🤞
@Neku Kubheka he’s in denial, his empty pride is still hurt by events that happened almost a century and a half ago.
Not South AFRICAN BUH only Zulu king
@Sweet Gurl lol . I don’t suppose you read my comment hey .
@Thuba R you lie
@Sweet Gurl thank you now they have started to spread lies they even believe those lies
@Sinentlahla Gosa Yaz umunye said he’s the king of nguni people lol 😆 😂 🤣 😅 what a lie lol this people
We have other kings, he is one of them
He leads the largest nation in Southern Africa. There’s a difference
@Nhlanhla Nene point is he is not the only king in the world
Lol you people are such haters , niyazifanela nje namagweja
@Nhlanhla Nene they dont matter to you, but to their tribes they are important. By so saying we embrace all our Kings, no one of them over another, we are all equal, different , but united as South Africans. No amount of tribalism will divide us. We love Our Kings
@Nhlanhla Nene this coming from a black person is so embarrassing and shameful, delete this nonsense. Colonisers and apartheid architects were also thinking like this.
❤️❤️❤️
Bayethe!
Ndiyathanda ndiabona inkosi lenbenzile kakhulu isiziwe lesiZulu
Love that in a society such as South Africa, the indigenous people can still practice the culture and traditions of their ancestors and still enjoy the conveniences of modernity.
@Mr. COOL bro why tf are u asking me?? Im not the one who made european culture
@Cin Coy I know plenty of people in Europe who stick to their traditions and cultural practices.
@JORDII I think there more and more everyday .. l agree
@Lyndon CMP don’t be stupid,where did the Zulu get guns…Zulu only had spears
BAYEDE WENA WENDLOVU!!!
point of correction, he’s not South African king,, he’s the king if AmaZulu. thank you
Add that the biggest ethnic group in Africa, its ppl are all over the world and their impact is felt across the entire country, he qualifies to be called a King of the nation,those who know understand better,asbonge🤣
@ Lay_Down, I know for a fact that you are not African if you actually think that the Zulus are the biggest ethnic group in Africa. How absurd!
@K ZN uyayizwa yini iminjunju,kwasho kwezwela🤣🤣😂😂
@K ZN may be he meant in SA
Wakanda forever ♾️
They will know who is the 👑 in the Land of Africans history is made not Europe’s lies about African history 👑🐐🐅🤴Bayede Zulu kingdom
@Gilgamesh by the way the millions of art stolen from Africa serve as amusement for your children.
@Gilgamesh yes true you were not part of it but you can not keep invalidating how so many African feel , the trauma, constant humiliation . What frustrates the most is Europeans keep telling us how to live , practice our culture, Eve dictate to us what is democratic what is not .. our values and principles might not makes sense to many across the world but it’s important to respect others even though you deem them primitive or even worse view them as less of human beings.
@Gilgamesh unfortunately it’s not for you to agree or disagree with it . even if you tried to change it you wouldn’t succeed, the British tried they failed , the Dutch tried , apartheid tried . Christianity tried they all failed because we can’t never be told by anyone what is right . We are Zulus brother you should know that . .. Racism will never end as long as whites proclaim themselves superior by virtue of their lack of milenin and the institution that perpetuate that mentality still exists . There’s no hope . You should know this we Africa don’t have white people or Europeans infact we don’t hate anyone but the institutions , government, organisations, politicians that disrespect our people, our sovergnity and dignity .
Europe, especially Britain, sends a lot of aid money to Africa. Oxfam, Live Aid, Comic Relief etc are all charity organisations that were founded in Britain.
British people like to help Africa.
Best wishes. Peace ✌️.
🙌 wena we Ndlovu!
Bayade Bayede Bayede 🙌🏽🙌🏽 Hlanga lwamakhosi Bayade

Stop embarassing yourselves. He’s South African king. Nothing wrong with that unless you don’t understand English. If the statement said South Africa’s king, then you rioting in this comment section would make sense. It’s simple English, stop embarassing yourselves you little unimportant tribes.

Lo owazibeka wathi useyi Nkosi yethu😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂We smakade
I wonder why dose the Zulu kingdom not have its independence. They can make an independent state just like other kingdom’s like monaco andora or san marino it’s still weird that there’s Lesotho and eswatini as kingdom’s and not kwazulu.
It’s becoz they are not independent – the United Kingdom will forever have a stranglehold on its prized assets. Misizulu in that sense is just a public figure like a celeb
@Nkululeko Makhubu 😂😂😂🤣 Shalom brother . God bless you
Nkululeko Makhubu,
The United Kingdom gave South Africa its independence over one hundred years ago. The United Kingdom has not ruled in South Africa since before the First World War. South Africa has been its own country for over a century. South Africa doesn’t even have to be in the Commonwealth if it doesn’t want to be. It can leave whenever it wants to. Britain no longer is interested in ruling foreign lands. Times have moved on.
@Lyndon CMP 👊🏾 💯
@Lyndon CMP please come to the townships, the fancy schools, white dominant construction sites and the racism wine lands. I guess that’s why the Queen has kept the Cullinan diamond, there’s profits to be made. Come to South Africa you’ll see what I mean bro.
The support from other Africans was overwhelming
We are one people .
Needs too
Ngonyama kaZulu

Awsuka madoda wamuhle uzulu 🤸♀️🤸♀️
Why would other Africans support a Kingdom that is very xenophobic to many Africans doing business in KZN & Johannesburg? It just doesn’t make any sense to me. Africans are not decisive on bread & butter issues.
King of Zamunda
what year is it there?
2022 August … Western world is NOT the only world. This is sour from you
The “Zulu King” shot a lion in the leg then another man had to finish off the lion. Barbaric.
I wish these kings were actually effective . Our king just abused power and had to go to jail , imagine . The Zulu kings haven’t had any significant influence either. I even forgot they exist till a new one comes along every 50 years lol
I can only blame your ignorance on that 😂
Not the 9th King by the way…why do I bother
So much salt in the comments.
celebrating colonizers and imperialism. Yet they wanna judge the west
Long live the king
Will these people build modern economy in SA ?
zulu’s can’t be christian…. so sad, such an unholy culture, no wonder Xhosas are confused….🤣
You are so so I’ll informed my dear.
He will be dead before the year is over
Undabazita. Dakosi.
Do they still live in the year 1600 ?
Yes we do haven’t you noticed today’s it’s 23 /09/1500
Yes we do

Congratulations to the new King 👑.
