Basuka lapho beholwa nguKhumalo behla bayozinza eNquthu, bahlala endaweni yaseMvunyana eNondweni kwehle njalo kuze kuyoshaya eMzinyathi. UKhumalo wabe ke esezala inkosana yakhe uMkhatshwa, yena ozale uZikode. Ngesikhathi abantu bakwaKhumalo sebebuswa nguMagugu kaGasa kaZikode banda baze benabela eBabanango nokulapho uMagugu efike wakha khona ihlalankosi lakhe wathi kuseSikhaleni.

Akahlalanga lapho ubuye wathuthela eNquthu. Simthola esehlukana nabafowabo obekungoDonda noSiwela ebashiya noyise omncane uMashobane noBheje kaMagawozi owayeyibutho likaDloko. Labo Khumalo abebehamba noMashobane sibathola behamba beze bayowela umfula iSikhwebezi. UDonda wase akha umuzi phesheya komfula iSikhwebezi wawetha ngokuthi kuseZizibeni lokhu okwaholela ekutheni uma ehaywa abizwe ngoDonda weziziba. UBheje wakhe owakhe wathi kuseNgome, owabuye waziwa ngokuthi kuseTsheni likaBheje. Kanti noMlotshwa kaSiwela yena wakha owakhe umuzi eduzane kweqguma uMaphonjwana wathi kusoThulini. Ngesikhathi uMagugu eseNquthu, uhlaselwe yiNkosi uShaka wabaleka nabantu bakhe bahlakazeka nezwe lonke.

Isizukulwane sakhe sitholakala eNquthu, eNtinini eTilehe nase (Utrecht) naseDriefontein. Umuntu oqgame kakhulu kwaKhumalo nguMzilikazi kaMashobane. Usocongwe nguZwide kaLanga wakwaNdwandwe ngoba emsole ngokuthi uxwayise iNkosi uShaka efuna ukumbulala. Wambulala uDonda wamnquma ikhanda wayohlobisa ngalo endlini kanina uNtombazi kwaDlovunga KwaNongoma.

Kanjalo noyise kaMzilikazi uMashobane wasocongwa yinkosi uZwide ikhanda lakhe layohlobisa khona kwaDlovunga. UMashobane yena washiya inkosana yakhe uMzilikazi.

Lowo muzi usulidolobhakazi elingelesibili ngobukhulu khona eZimbabwe. Amadodana akhe okwabe kunguNkulumana oyinkosana noMangwane babanjwa bexoxa ngamasu abayowasebenzisa uma sebebusa emva kokukhothama kukayise.

Lokho akuzange kwehle kahle kuMzilikazi, ubabuze ngamasiko ukuthi bayawazi yini. Wathi kubo lake laphuma yini elinye lisekhona, esho ngoba bezibeka amakhosi yena esekhona. Wathi abendiswe wabuye washintsha umqondo wathi abayiswe KwaZulu beyofundiswa amasiko. Bahamba ke nezancinza zabo, amakhosikazi nabantwana. Ohambweni lwabo behlukana endleleni ngoba uzalo lukaNkulumana kunamuhla luyatholakala eBotswana.

English Summary

MaShobane was Mzilikazi’s father who was killed by Zwide. Mzilikazi decided to go and serve Shaka trying to flee from Zwide’s wroth after having killed his father. He became very popular and Shaka liked him since he was a great hero and he became one of Shaka’s trusted men. He was then later forced to flee from Shaka because he stole Shaka’s cattle that were meant to be brought to Shaka. This made the king very upset and he was very unhappy about this action. He ran until he reached Zimbabwe and the Khumalo’s are found all along this trail because of this situation that happened between Shaka and Mzilikazi.
