He told DispatchLIVE that the family was yet to meet and comprehensive statements would be released after the family meeting. “We are devastated about this as the family, but we still have to meet and inform all the people close to the family,” said a distraught Xhanti. Zwelonke had been the king of AmaXhosa since the death of his father, King Xolilizwe Sigcawu, in 2005.
