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.
