Their territory includes Richards Bay Minerals (RBM), a world leader in heavy mineral sand extraction and refining. The clan’s royal lineage has significant traditional authority in the region .

This sacred ritual involved only men and the king going to the river to prepare the Mthiyane heir to take over the throne .

In July 2024, the clan met the king formally at the kwaKhangela Amankengana Royal Palace and presented the Zulu royal family with gifts. King Misuzulu stated that this ritual played a vital role in creating peace and harmony in the nation and discouraged clans from infighting over the throne .

He ruled over the Msinga and Greytown areas in KwaZulu-Natal for 71 years. He was described as an inimitable leader who played a pivotal role in bringing peace and stability to the Msinga region, which had become notorious for faction fighting. President Jacob Zuma extended condolences to the Mchunu clan on behalf of the government and people of South Africa, honoring his legacy as a traditional leader.

Born and raised in Zululand, he met Clegg when the young Clegg would secretly visit townships to learn Zulu music and dance. Their partnership produced a blend of traditional Zulu and pop music, creating the band Juluka (meaning “sweat” in Zulu). Despite apartheid laws forbidding mixed-race public performances, they pushed boundaries and became wildly popular. After Juluka split in 1985, Mchunu returned home to pursue cattle farming. He briefly reunited with Clegg for the album “Ya Vuka Inkunzi.” His collaboration with Clegg is remembered as a pioneering moment in South African music history, bridging cultural divides through the power of music.

        Ozingelwayo = bushmen. You can look up AbaTwa of central Africa. Thethwa shows that the bulk of AmaZulu is built from bushmen (mostly Tonga) and Khoi (Sothos) with a small portion of sedentary or Zulu people. Our history is vast, so I will share what I think is most relevant. AbaTwa are in the Bible as Zethua in the Book of Esdras Chapter 3 when it lists all the tribes allowed back into Jerusalem from exile. Need I say that the direct Solomonistic dependent who led them back was Zorobbabel. In some African languages you would read that as Zurubbabel. Not only is Robert Mugabe from a Shona clan called Zezuru, I can also show that Zezuru have the same history as the Zulu of South Africa e.g. Mugabe = Mgabhi. From this i can discern that oMsweli = Duma = Mthombeni = well-controlling arabs. That’s what even early white books call some black South Africans, ARABS. The Israelites mixed with the Israelite Arabs (their ancestors through Abraham) who called themselves Nabato. We call ourselves Bato. Abraham is from the Mande or Manda clan indicating that his tribe will grow and expand. That is why some of us are called Mandebele = Mande + Bele peoples. Just my research = not anywhere near done. But just google it and you can verify the info for yourself.
