If the 2024 elections do not see a "reset, recharge and reboot", KwaZulu-Natal (KZN) risks becoming a failed province. This is according to Inkatha Freedom Party (IFP) KZN chairperson Thami Ntuli, who has accepted the nomination as the party's Premier candidate in the province. Ntuli, who was also mayor of the King Cetshwayo district municipality, said KZN stood at the brink of "an abyss". "It is painful to see the province of KwaZulu-Natal crumble because of corruption, poor management and unethical leadership. We have seen deepening levels of poverty, despair, joblessness, lawlessness and many social ills. The very economic center of this province - eThekwini - has collapsed before our very own eyes. That shall come to an end," he promised. While Ntuli assured that the party's plans ahead of the elections would be announced at the IFP's manifesto launch in March, he outlined the IFP's current standing in KZN as the opposition party, as well as its growth in the province owing to "people who are fed up with the current government". Ntuli expressed the IFP's support for traditional leadership alongside self-help and self-care and added, "We shall make KwaZulu-Natal great again." Outlining his own credentials, Ntuli noted that as mayor of the King Cetshwayo district municipality and as former mayor of Nkandla, his focus had been on development, infrastructure and basic services, while prioritising issues relating to women and children and indigent households. "I always put people first. The IFP has a track record known to anyone in this province. I am a person that believes in hard work. As the IFP's Premier, I will leave no one behind. I will make sure that every citizen's interests are taken care of," he stated. He urged voters in KZN to register at the upcoming voter registration weekend. "I am proud to say that the IFP is the future. We are the party you can trust. We work for you. We will deliver on the revival, the recharge, the rescue, the hope that this province so desperately wants and needs. I pledge myself to be your humble servant as we start the process of rebuilding this province. We will do so to secure the future of our children, and to honour the legacy of Prince Mangosuthu Buthelezi." YOUTH ENDORSEMENT FOR NTULI The IFP's Youth Brigade national executive committee (IFPYB NEC) gave its support for Ntuli's nomination, calling his leadership instrumental in "leading the province's structures to a successful election campaign". "The suffering and hardship endured by the people of KwaZulu-Natal cannot be ignored. It is for this reason that the IFPYB NEC will lend our full support to all the KZN Youth Brigade structures in the province, including our new Premier candidate, Cllr Ntuli, to offer meaningful alternatives to the challenges faced under the ANC administration," the IFPYB NEC said.

He was speaking at the special official funeral of founding IFP President, Prince Mangosuthu Buthelezi, in Ulundi at the weekend. Mangosuthu Buthelezi died last week, aged 95. Before his passing Buthelezi wished for the ANC, IFP to reconcile.

For 69 years Prince Mangosuthu Buthelezi, who was laid to rest in KwaZulu-Natal yesterday, was traditional prime minister to three successive Zulu kings, beginning with King Cyprian Bhekuzulu in 1954. He served under King Goodwill Zwelithini, the longest-serving monarch of the Zulu kingdom, from 1968 to March 2021 and more recently, under the current king Misuzulu kaZwelithini, until his death last week. For 44 years Buthelezi was also at the helm of the Inkatha Freedom Party - IFP- from it's founding in 1975 until 2019 when his hand picked successor, Velinkosi Hlabisa was elected unopposed as the new leader at the party's 35th National General Conference. Until his passing last Saturday, Prince Buthelezi was at the centre of developments, successes, tensions and challenges faced by the two institutions. Now that he is no more, will his shadow continue to shape the two organisations into the future? For a look at the road ahead for both the IFP and the AmaZulu Royal House, Sebenzile Nkambule spoke to political analyst,  Zakhele Ndlovu and academic and cultural expert, Dr Gugu Mazibuko, both from the University of KwaZulu-Natal.

A democratic revolution is underway in South Africa's most populous province of KwaZulu-Natal. In recent by-elections, the IFP has won five previously safe ANC wards, and in those where it fell short, posted massive double-digit gains in its share of the vote and turned the ruling party's majority from comfortable to marginal. The party, founded by Prince Mangosuthu Buthelezi in 1975, is a staunch member of the anti-ANC/EFF Rainbow Coalition. It governed KZN between 1994 and 2004, a project which is regarded as unfinished business. The IFP's newfound momentum is perfectly timed ahead of the watershed 2024 Election, where the IFP expects to regain the right to govern the province - and to share power nationally. Its president Velenkosini Hlabisa, who succeeded Buthelezi in August 2019, explains how the recent surge is part of a long-term plan embarked upon almost ten years ago.

Queen Elizabeth II was actually Princess Elizabeth when she first visited Africa with her parents. And she was in Kenya – staying in the famous Treetops hotel – when the news of her father's death arrived and she became queen. During the 70 years that followed she visited the continent many times and shook the hands of countless African leaders. But what was it like to actually meet the queen in person? For Africa Daily @Kasujja speaks to the former president of Botswana, Ian Khama, and Prince Mangosuthu Buthelezi, the traditional prime minister of the Zulu nation, who share their memories. “He announced me as the President of Zimbabwe… she said to me ‘don't worry about that introduction, he's new and I think he just got overwhelmed by the occasion'… She knew I wasn't the President of Zimbabwe, she knew who I was. She made a nice, pleasant excuse for him”.

Prime Minister to the Zulu monarch, Prince Mangosuthu Buthelezi, says additional claims to the Zulu throne have made the Zulu nation a laughing stock.

In March this year President Cyril Ramaphosa legally recognised Prince Misuzulu ka Zwelithini as the king-elect of the Zulu people, following the death last year of long-reigning King Goodwill Zwelithini ka Bhekuzulu. But subsequent events around the Zulu royal household suggest that the president's decision does not enjoy universal support. The Zulu royal household this week condemned an alleged planned entering of the cattle kraal (ukungena esibayeni) ceremony by Prince Simakade Zulu kaZwelithini set for this Saturday. The ceremony is reportedly taking place just days before the same ceremony will be held for Prince Misuzulu kaZwelithini.Simakade is the late King Goodwill Zwelithini's first son, born out of wedlock. He was allocated a home within Zwelithini's palaces. However, Zulu prime minister Prince Mangosuthu Buthelezi said the event is illegal and a “foolish provocation”. To talk about the rift, as well as the position of traditional authorities in a democratic dispensation, our host Mike Siluma is joined by lecturer in Public Policy and Political Science at UKZN Dr Fikile Vilakazi, and political correspondent for the Sunday Times Zimasa Matiwane.
