ANC's Siboniso Duma disrespected entire Zulu monarchy and he must apologise, say royal advisors

Izinduna from Zulu regiments have condemned KwaZulu-Natal ANC chairperson, Siboniso Duma's perceived disrespect towards Zulu Traditional Prime Minister Thulasizwe Buthelezi, which they say undermined the dignity of the Zulu monarchy.

We must clearly define boundaries. Politicians, regardless of their level, need to understand that when they enter Zulu territory, they too become part of the ibutho . Remember, every male in South Africa is considered part of the King's ibutho, and the king holds a position of authority above them all.

He condemned the violence, attributing it to criminals who acted after the regiments had already dispersed and were no longer in control. IOL reported that Duma defended himself, saying he had taken the microphone away from Buthelezi because he was not part of the official programme, adding that Buthelezi had a tendency to speak ill of ANC members every time he got a platform.I didn’t give him a platform on the day, he just stood up and read his five-page speech. We only allowed him to the podium out of courtesy and because we thought he was going to introduce the King.
