Mthethwa is gister by sy familietuiste in KwaMbonambi aan die noordkus van Kwazulu-Natal begrawe. Die ANC oorweeg dit straks om voor die verkiesing hulle burgemeesterskandidate bekend te maak. Dosyne vragmotors met kos en ander voorrade vir Palestyne beweeg in Gasa in, terwyl die wereld wag op die vrylating van gyselaars.

Mthethwa served as the country's Head of Mission in Paris before passing away in the French capital last month. For the latest on this, Elvis Presslin spoke to SABC News Anchor, Bongiwe Zwane, who joins us from KwaZulu Natal...

South Africa's diplomatic community gathered at the Department of International Relations and Cooperation in Pretoria yesterday (Friday) to pay tribute to late Ambassador, Nathi Mthethwa.

In this edition of the NdB Sunday Show, Chris Steyn speaks to Jacques Taljaard, the newly elected President of the United Independent Movement (UIM), the party founded by the iconic late Neil De Beer. He shares his opinion on the latest developments that Neil would have had a field day commenting on: the mysterious death of former Police Minister Nathi Mthethwa in Paris days after being fingered for the “worst” political interference; Patriotic Alliance (PA) leader Gayton McKenzie forcing the hand of the African National Congress (ANC) by threatening to leave the Government of National Unity (GNU); and the defiance of Economic Freedom Fighters CIC Julius Malema following his criminal conviction on firearms offences. Taljaard also describes the three-fold surge in support experienced by the UIM in recent weeks from people wanting to honour Neil's legacy. And he shares a previously unseen video of Neil that is guaranteed to make viewers laugh out loud.

The repatriation of South Africa's former Ambassador to France Nathi Mthethwa's remains from Paris is set to begin after a post-mortem, possibly this Sunday.

Mthethwa died in Paris on Tuesday after reportedly falling from the 22nd floor of a hotel. French authorities are investigating the circumstances surrounding his death, with early reports suggesting it may have been a suicide, though his family in KZN disputes this claim.

EFF MP Carl Niehaus is questioning the circumstances surrounding the death of South Africa's Ambassador to France, Nathi Mthethwa, who was found dead outside a Paris hotel.

Lieutenant-General Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi alleged that in 2011, as Police Minister Mthethwa pressured then inspector-general of intelligence Faith Radebe to drop corruption charges against former crime intelligence head, Richard Mdluli. Niehaus suspects foul play, though French prosecutors haven't ruled out suicide. EFF MP Carl Niehaus spoke to Elvis Presslin

This is episode 89 and it's the first years of the 1820s and we are still in Zululand. By now Shaka began concentrating his power in the area around Mahlabatini, to Qulusini, which is the area just north of the White Mfolozi River. That's north of the town of Ulundi. After Zwide of the Ndwandwe was chased away, Shaka began developing a dense cluster of imizi in Mahlabatini under Mmama, Mnkabayi's twin sister – and the largest of these was oSebeni near Nhlazatshe mountain. Most were previously Mthethwa homesteads including kwaKandisa, oNyangek kwaGuqu, Mdadasa and Nomdayana. I mentioned last episode that we need to attend to the various myths about Shaka's sexuality. Most of the salacious myths are indeed, myths, and I'll explain why. Some suggest he was gay, others that he couldn't have sex, he was sexually disabled. We must attend to this part of the story because a whole phalanx of myth-making has developed based on misconceptions. Most Zulu oral story tellers and written evidence that Shaka had no children. I'm going to explain why. He had an isigodlo of several hundred women, yet never had a child – how come? This movement of people around Zululand was going to nudge others further afield. I mentioned the concept of the Difaqane or Mfecane last episode. This is a theory about what happened at precisely this time in Southern African history where it's postulated that Shaka's immense power and violence led to the scattering of clans and tribes away from his zulu powerhouse which in turn, disrupted other people's further afield. That people were now moving more than they had been in preceding decades is uncontestedly true. But it's disputed and quite virulently about why this happened. It's known as the Difaqane or Mfecane.

This is episode 81 and we're following the story of the AmaZulu, the Qwabe, the Mkhize, the Ndwandwe and the Mthethwa circa 1819. By this time, the Mkhize and the Qwabe along with many other smaller groups and clans had been pushed southwards by the aggression of the Ndwandwe, and troubles in the Swaziland area. Zihlando was already the Mkhize chieftan when Shaka took control of the Zulu and their relationship would continue until Shaka was assassinated in 1828 – and Shaka referred to Zihlando as his younger brother his mnawe wami. Zihlando khonza'd Shaka, then was directed to fight Mtsholoza of the Nxamalala people, a small clan of folks who'd splintered and headed south. But the big fish awaited, Zwide's Ndwandwe and Shaka knew that to take on such a powerful foe, he'd needed to build his forces carefully. I've mentioned that Dingiswayo's death led to the severe instability across northern Zululand and its now time to get down amongst the weeds, to probe this era more comprehensively. Each month and each moment from now on has a bearing on the two centuries afterwards, as bizarre as this sounds. We live with the ramifications to this day in southern Africa and I'm going to explain why.
