By Celani Sikhakhane
The royal family of controversial KwaZulu-Natal traditional leader, Prince Melizwe Dlamini, who once wanted the same status as that of the Zulu king, is due to be replaced.
Prince Melizwe Dlamini of Nhlangwini, South Coast of KZN, brought South African politics to a standstill after he challenged King Zwelithini’s kingship in 2006 through the Nhlapho Commission and later the Sikhakhane Commission.
Dlamini wanted his clan to be declared as an independent nation in KZN with their own monarch, who would have not bowed to the Zulu Kingdom.
He passed away in 2021, a few days after the passing of King Zwelithini kaBhekuzulu.
He was also a blood relative of the Zulu royal family.

He said he had no aspirations to the Zulu throne because he was the recognised head of the "big Dlamini nation".
His comments came amid an outcry from some quarters that there "was only one Bayede" in KwaZulu-Natal. Dlamini said "not all people in KwaZulu-Natal are Zulus".
He said there were Nhlangwinis from the Embo-Nguni tribes as well as the amaHlubi and AmaZulu in the province.
"It is a historical absurdity to suggest that KwaZulu-Natal is only populated by Zulus," he said.
Dlamini said this was a "mythological creation that entrenched itself in the historiography of former British colonial writers in order to serve certain colonial interests&quo
