King of the Nhlangwini people who sought recognition as an independent kingdom within KwaZulu-Natal. Despite his claims being rejected by the Nhlapo Commission in 2009, he maintained his status as king until his death. His son Nqalabutho kaMelizwe Dlamini succeeded him and continues his father’s legacy, receiving a certificate of recognition from the Congress of Traditional Leaders of South Africa in 2024.

He continues to seek full constitutional recognition of his kingdom, maintaining that the Nhlangwini have never bowed to the Zulu king and have no historical relationship with the Zulu monarchy. His cause represents one of several KZN tribes seeking recognition as independent kingdoms.
