Who is the true Zulu King?
The Inquiry
Misuzulu ka Zwelithini was officially crowned King of the Zulu Nation in October after the death of his father. King Zwelithini died of Covid complications after ruling for fifty years.
It has set off a royal feud as members of the large Zulu royal family contest King Misuzuluβs right to the throne.
Succession to the Zulu throne has been beset by violence for over a century. This time, the battle is in the courtroom.
In this weekβs Inquiry we ask, who is the true Zulu King?
