“You would remember in 1835, I’m making an example, King Hintsa was slaughtered like an animal, by his forebears, but he’s in this country now,” said Prince Manene Tabane from Contralesa.In both South Africa and Britain, traditional leadership is recognised by law.
In South Africa, the law doesn’t stop traditional leaders from joining political parties or standing for election. In contrast to the single British royal family, South Africa has 11 recognised kingships and queenships.Each king or queen gets an annual salary of just over R1.2-million from government but some provinces make extra allocations, with AmaZulu King Goodwill Zwelithini’s budget for the current financial year standing at R66-million.For the financial year that ended in March, they spent R1.2 billion largely on travel, property maintenance, housekeeping and hospitality, among other things.
Really? I find it really childish.
just imagine, being king because you were born in the right family, that sucks, kingship is earned
I feel the same, what the devil are they doing here?
Are the TraditionalLeaders feeling left out of the Limelight? Don't they get their fair share of attention, anyway? RoyalVisitSouthAfrica
Ur rite,complaining bout ppl who are visiting we having a sick nation👄👄👄
Bad journalism
Masemola_S_G You are lying! Who is giving this colonizers attention? It’s only u racists who is doing that! They have never even trended in our “black twitter” ! You are busy forcing this people to our throats! You even want to create unnecessary debate RoyalVisitSouthAfrica
We just need to move away from all the useless waste, imported or local. They not relevant anyways.
They should raise concerns about the land, minerals and natural resources taken from the masses by the British. I mean this boys granny's statue sits outside our/her parliament. Truth be told he's just checking on family assests in RSA.
Anc sold them out
Ba tla ba strong
mereko wa di traditional leaders ke eng?
Not just traditional leaders...the average man on the street.
Where there is a smell of wealth we follow.😂😂😂😂
Whose attention Nonsense they r ryt though😂😂😂😂
O please
What are they doing for their communities. Nothing. They even depend on our tax money, they can’t generate any income for themselves.
What do ordinary people stand to benefit from two couples with their own baby who decided to come to Mzansi for a visit? British colonialism hasn't ended
struggling_bill The difference is because they are filthy rich 🤣🤣
😂 😂 😂 😂 Madness!! Royalty my ass. All this queen and king shit must end, the world doesn't need a uch nonsense!! They are all human, who bloody made them special. Bulldust!
There is nothing more absurd and completely stupid every time I hear or read the term 'clever blacks'. It's the same as saying I think I'm stupid or I don't like people who went to school or you yourself have a low self esteem as a fellow black person! STOP
British Royal speak in voice - maybe it’s about time our Traditional Leaders unite and play a significant role in socioeconomic challenges this country faces
Hebanna foetsek bewufuna unyoko pha? We are woke now!
Both of them are irrelevant. Do go home!
Ja..I have said it..
I wanna watch Angel Has Fallen. Is it a nice movie?
Am sure they Are Right to do so coz We have King who is in Jail King Dalidyebo
Tne media is doing that no the ppl
Haaii suka. Jealous fela
I think I know who’s “Traditional Leaders”
Which one mnxx
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Fake news
Fuck traditional leaders. Grow with this era
What have they done (traditional leaders) to get the necessary attention the Duke & Duchesses come bearing gifts, not to take away from the people period
Jealousy lools yooh
If the can join the RoyalAssociationinSA them too could have the same attention. HE HrH Dr Tebogo Modjadji-Kekana. Founder of The Royal Princesses Association in South Africa and Royal Association in South Africa
Funny how they want to compare themselves with those who came to assist and donate to the same people they continue to fail.
ForeverShakes SA Royals raise over attention given to England royals otherwise they all belong to a traditional home
Hee re tla nyela kae!!
Why should we care about British royalties here, when we & they don’t respect or acknowledge our own Afrikan queens & kings?I’m in agreement with our Leaders (Royal Houses) whom you refer as traditional leaders, how many SA royal families/houses have you written positively about?
SA warship whites
British criminals who are looting our minerals
Jealous much?
😁😁😁😁
They must raise the standard not concerns
Gurl be interesting, treat women with respect, stopping homophobic and then we will give you attention.
Pots and pans all flourished At the expense of ordinary citizens,their blood is red who made them royal? They aren’t even relevant
I dont know what the hype about this guy visiting in a country that his family exoploits is all about but our traditional leaders are also useless, they dont care about the people they lead they only care about their stomachs...
They earned their respect the whole world why can't we they must just learn from them how to treat their people not how to be dictators
🤦♂️ Jealous nje😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
MduMabuka i think they are correct to be concerned charity begins at home we must embrace our own royals first
LungisaniMbuso Your first mistake is calling ours traditional leaders and not call them royals like you call Megan & Harry.
There is nothing for free. Never be happy with donations.
Some African and traditional systems are misused to dominate and oppress people, systematically preventing them from social class mobility.
Prince Harry and Meghan are a monarch. Those other guys, including my own uncle, are tribal representatives.
TraditionAl leaders in SA, are sitting in their little corners on their own, they don't allow their subjects into their personal lives. Which is different from what the British Royal family does, they practically do everything in full view of the British.
atleast lama British don't get a sum on our tax every month
Ja of course, they are looting just as much taxpayers monies.
White is always right 😎
One is in jail for killing n maiming his own people, one is directly responsible for looting VBS, the other one thinks his allowance is too little, need I go on ! How does one even start recognizing such people, let alone celebrating them ! Sanuk'dlala ngathi !
I know that I don't care about these humans 😌
Traditional leaders need to chill with the British royals and focus on getting the land back & reparations for their people!
Who cares about traditional leaders anyway. Leeches off the taxpayer.
There is nothing wrong with the attention.
Why so much attention vele as if they see Jesus, barricading nogal !
Instead of learning on how to help people in need , they complain. They behave like Comedians
Enca poor reporting yet again. Wow you guys keep on at it.
claudimailovich Bwahahaha! LOL! Oh mirth. Just so so funny on so many levels.
Those leaders must count me in please.
That's true.
I think the concern we should all be having as a Republic and a democracy, is the elevation of an institution that is associated with autocracy, since traditional leaders are not elected. That is a serious debate that South Africans should be engaged in.
Finding the excitement a little embarrassing, actually.
Blacks love to bow infront of their colonial leaders from england haha wtf...
Mabame kancani tu, zingane lezi
Seriously traditional leaders? Seriously?
British royal visit doesn't affect me the slightest but it's worth noting that British royal family has great record of doing charity work. The same can't be said of our royals. Ours are known for always complaining about receiving 'little money' from the state.
What It their concern about, this are visitors bringing money into our country and helping the needs. What did they do to the community, just earning money from government without contributing to the society.
It's media. It's not us. They have been forcing feeding it the whole week. eNCA was at the forefront.
If I would find myself bowing to African King or Monarch don't blame me I would be out of my mind.
Banomoya yazin
Toni Mphephu aaaai he stole VBS money
Lets reheadline this. 'Afrikaners raise concerns over attention given to British royals.' If you know, you know. It's that simple.
😂 😂 😂 😂 Our African Traditional Leaders
I think I know the name of that king... It is king Daledyebo
Media not myself, infact i don't like that family
With our own gold!
Racists media people do better we won't fall for your nonsense
Are we paying attention to the British royals or only media is with the British pple in SA. Me I really don't give a * thy mean nothing special than others and I'm sorry to say even ours. It's just me
U started the hype
Do you want us to give attention to Toni Mphephu and Dali Ndyebo
Vele it's so wrong nje... Why must we know what they do or where they go? What importance does it have for us? We have our own royals mos
Those traditional leaders must ask themselves why ? And stop whining.
When you choose to be part of the Commonwealth you must ingratiate the British monarchy as its head. Hey chiefs, this is good for us. We need all the positive attention we can get!
Bayakhweleta 🤣🤣
Asazi nokuthi bakhona
Banyela. Ngeke sizwe ngabo
Atleast they are bringing back some of the money they stole
Any royalty deserves no attention if you ask me. We are all royals.
Useless leaders they sold our land
Two words,Evictus games. what sports or charities have they started? How much money have they raised for their communities, tsek
For the first time I agree with them.
Why may I ask? Perhaps it's because our 'traditional' leaders only ever do things for themselves and never for their 'subjects'. It's always about bleeding the country for what they can take!
Choice of words says volumes. South African royals are called 'traditional leaders' and British MONARCH is called 'royals', tendencies of a colonised mentality
they are crazy.if they can stop dictating maybe the treatment will be the same
Jealous much? 'Royal families' need to be done away with, globally. These people are a leach on the societies they are supposedly leading.
Traditional leaders are the burden of the state and oppressing their own people These British Royals are here to invest their money in poorest of the poor people which is the duty of traditional leaders that are not doing it they take from their own
Sad how the British media tried to divide South Africans and sadly clever blacks grabs that opportunity to show how stupid they are. Actually it's our money that was stolen not theirs and we deserve it ke shame. They are not doing any favors but its guilty conscience.
U shud have covered umkhosi welembe & stop feeding us colonial children.
Who are these people?
It's not racial thing, it's a humanity thing, I know traditional leaders that get R75k a month and even more, driving brand new cars, while their people live in hunger.
The white people set the agenda in SA.
These so called traditional leaders are talking garbage to say the least 🤒🤒🤒...
Is it true that the royal donate money for land to be taken from whites without compensastion
Let’s pray with CapeTown Shutdown today they don’t become a statistic as it is South Africa is the 2nd most dangerous country in the world 🌍
So according to your headline, our traditional leaders are not royals neh? Which is why you called our royals paramount chiefs, a term which is not available on Macbeth script, but also denigrating.
White owned media is giving them attention and now they busy trying to install the idea of Heritage day being a braai day rather than celebrating the core purpose of Heritage
Not everybody can be black and uneducated, to sorry for you to dissoniert you leaders of a corrupt uneducated South .africa !
This guy is good for investment.
Abelungu bayadina
It’s about time you take all that money which is wasted on traditional leaders, then they go find work with thier kids, we can’t have this nonsense of royalty in 2019.
The Prince💝🌺💐🌸Royalty👑much appreciated
My point exactly. A British traditional leader given so much respect and coverage and you will even think that in SA we do not have such.
When are they leaving?
They must admit this can't be the same royalty
That's the reason they have lost respect and trust of the people, they don't appreciate their fellow traditional leadership instead of embracing them to teach us how royalty should be treated they are complaining!!
Gimme some of that attention
Comment session is Hella crazy, imma sit here and chill
Let them protect 'their land' In EXOLOBENI if they are to show muscle in leadership and stop wanting attention. Let them create attention. VBS still need actors if they are missing scripts to showcase leadership....
Traditional leaders are just attention seekers what have they done to deserve special attention All they do is to take money from the poor and feed their own stomachs
There will always be someone better than you, more successful than you and more celebrated than you; the last thing they want is to impose their relevance to us, they might not like to hear what we have to say..
😂😂🤣😂🤣 they must tell ANC to look after them
The british thieves must return the mineral resources they looted in Africa and apologise for murdering our ancestors.
Uh do we need Traditional leaders I mean we support them with our tax money, what is it that they can do that the Govt cant?
This article is misleading… What’s this ... clickbait? The closest thing to the headline is the royal visit being a ‘much ado about nothing’ — Amir phrase at the beginning of the article. The rest is about finances and expenditures.
Traditional leaders must visit UK .the media will also give them attention that side as for now we are busy fixing the Country as young people. Secandly they must be complementary not competitive.
British abolish our monarchy system and gave us a governments but never abandon theirs, quite interesting. While we treat ours like non+ existence we honor and praise theirs, I love Africa 😂😂😂😂😂
Must agree - when I’m celebrating my heritage all I see are the British invading my space once again.
😂😂😂 i feel their pain
Unfortunately that's the world order I'm afraid.
The comments are scary and shockingly disturbing to say the least. Serious lack of understanding of what Royalty is about in Africa, by Africans. By the way, British Royals are wealthy because of what they have stolen and continue to steal to this day, our minerals.
Well why do we give them so much attention. Half our problems started with the British
The king is here.
Ba jaloers😂😂😂. Haai, lenna nka ba the same, its tough not to be recognized 🤪
The other one is getting 70 million for fokkol
The lies from this media never stop. Who is the traditional leader, why don't you name him/them? Truth is you are just trying to create a fake narrative to negatively portray African leaders. Stupid.
Liars. Fake news!!
Nonsense
By choice, we are part of the commonwealth, hence we look upon the queen as our leader. That's what they should understand before they bla bla bla.
Given by yall of course!
Vele why are the media house, sending us emails updates after updates about them? Personally I don’t care nor will they will change the price of bread so🙄
What cost do the traditional leaders cover out of there own pockets . And as the queen cant vote ect. The same should go for our traditional leaders to. Are they not royals to.
Why are we paying these traditional leaders out of goverment coffers. British Royals have to foot a hell of a lot of the costs themselves. And the queen pays taxs on all she owns. Yes they are very prominent. Been for 100 or years. What were the traditional leaders doing before
And they forget who donates money to this country! At least the British Royalty serve some sort of purpose.
Media not us sibhizi thina
Ba peinelwa
Fokof. Look at what Venda royal house did to VBS. They can go rot in hell. They are useless
Our 'traditional leaders' do nothing for much money. They need to earn their keep.. At least the British royals are representing their country in a positive way, and promoting good relations. What is the job description of our 'royals'? Sit around and promote the ANC at election?
We love them 💜
Aren't they too old for this?
kabelodick 😂😂😂😂 Jealousy
😂😂😂😂traditional leaders must parade themselves in their own communities to get attention and stop complaining like little kids crying for sweets 😂😂😂😂wow this drama queens and kings
These plp are descendants of colonialism and why we whr under Apartheid but coz we wnt to belong and are coconuts thats why Bob Marley said:'Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery None but ourselves can free our minds'.
Can somebody tell those traditional leaders that British Royals are real owners of South Africa?😀😀😀
People have been against the attention given to the British royals by the media... but because the traditional leaders raise the same issues, now people are calling the traditional leaders jealous
Can they make themselves famous and relevant by opening charities in their communities for starters; can they respond to deaths in circumcision; gender based violence ? They have been silent for too long and then when they decide to say something they want to tell us what like
All our SA kingdt do loot and loot non stop and most of them are just tribalist nje
Please name those traditional leaders because my King, Zulu king Zwelithini did not raise such such concern and he is recognized in Britain. He was hosted by the Queen just 3 months ago where he spent entire week during Impi Yasesandlwana commemoration.
Even though I don't care about these foreigners but as for traditional leaders, there time has passed...
Ziyalinda ezinkosi zinamagxa kodwa aziphi bantu mali namhlaba.
Shame they are so insecure and so they should be- no one gives a damn !
Exactly🥴🤦🏿♂️
One is in jail, the others are looting and free loading. No wonder they’re concerned.
Mnxim🙄
Aarg useless traditional leaders who cant even bring solutions to the community infact they are the main problem things dont improve in rural areas
Duh!!!!!!
Is those danda head in news room not us
By Jeremy Maggs and Jane Dutton?
Dey are jealousy but u guys are u running out of news!yerr toxic media
We told u about this bullshit of yours.... These people don't add any value to our citizens.... This is not some fairy tale country
These traditional leaders like to dress up to look like warriors, yet how many have been seen active service? Prince Harry has.
Jealous makes one look nasty
That's a lie
Our traditional leaders are out of order. Can someone call them to order
MXM!
CONTRALESA has forever been an Achilles heel for all the Ethnic groups in SA. Traditional Leaders are raping our country and do not contribute anything positive to Mzanzi. They do nothing and get millions of out taxes for doing exactly that!
They must stop behaving like entitled traditional leaders. Let their followers give them attention. Media does not Owe them anything.
Attention given to British royals by ENCA, kanti how are journalists reporting news nah? 🤣 🤣
I Only have to word for these traditional leaders 👇
They must go to Britain and demand attention...😂😂
🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂 We are agree with them
Lol the headline and what is on the actual article are two different things🤦🏿♂️
What else do these traditional cry babies know besides inciting violence n marrying multiple wives every year
Mara la rasa ka these people .... I feel nothing ... see me the day Eric Cantona comes here ...
Mxm what is their function i dont recognise them all
They are jeolous 😂😂😂😂
Settlers are problematic, especially in the African continent.
The sheer nerve of these parasites! Dikgoga do lelela attention? Bah. These royals run charities that feed and clothe our poor: when did you last hear/read of a member of the parasites doing anything even remotely this noble? Let them stew in the bile, the parasites! Tsk.
😂😂 umona
I was wondering when the were going to bring up Colonialism?
Ask them to throw bones🤣😅
Leaders to who?Irrelevant people
I call BS. Time and time again we've told you we don't care about them
Ag shame...traditional leaders don't lead they only collect money
Attention given by media , nobody gives a damn but the media
our-dna in my money of a gardenerboy ,my-dad as a chief could pay my money as a gardenerboy the way makhulu do wouldn't be in jhb
☻
Irrelevants trying to be relevant with relevants! 😏🤔🙄🤷🏻♂️
Bangaloyi the British royals😂
Do they know that Harry &Meghan came with money to help out while they just take and take? What do they ever do for the people?
They don't steal from their people and don't insight their people to steal beat and burn their own because they are from another country. So they are being rewarded for their kindness don't be jealous please. Be good and goodness shall follow you
People commenting, so much gullible, no traditional leader said this, nonsense reporting. But coz people are sheep they’ll comment and ridicule people that hadn’t said anything😪😪
They’re absolutely right, why should the British treated special here? They must be treated special in their country Period
Maybe the British Royals are given attention because they are giving and not taking from SAns. Can the same be said of Traditional Leaders here at home?
One thing I'd like to see is the gatherings they have with their people. We will learn a lot about each other
These traditional leaders need to get out more.They are totally out of touch with reality.I mean ,really now, these Royals are World famous celebrities doing good. Or, like many others, they want Harry to apologize for the 'atrocities' of the Anglo Boer War.Get over it, people.
Who are the traditional leaders....🤓🤓
Mina lento yokuthi the so called 'Our Traditional Leaders' went all out to get our very own Movie Inxeba banned Isangikhalisa namanje... besides i don't take them seriously either, they are so out of touch with the communities they claim to lead.
Then they must raise their relevance, finish and klaar!
'traditional leaders' 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
They're jealous. 😐
Why because they are white?
🙊🙊😋
Zwelithini!!!
Traditional leaders yamasimba
Imagine giving attention to a traditional leader who can't even load airtime on their own.
😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣😂🤣🤣🤣 They want to be celebrity royals
No need to tell us. It's you they have a problem with.
They should be embarrassed that people come from europe to help out in the communities that they lead, they are afraid to even question why government is not assisting their communities with water and electricity
Jealousy won't get these fellows anywhere.
Just say zwelethini is worried
Where were those traditional leaders when we were and still are crying over women and kids KILLINGS?! AmINext ? They've COMPLETELY lost the plot and are out of touch...
🙈 🙈 🙈
Who's traditional leader, we give attention to standard here.
Nonsensical media feeds us what they want to promote
Which attention? Given by who?
Coming from free loading traditional leaders
Who gives a damn about traditional leaders anyway.
Media is giving these people attention not us
Will MeghanMarkle and her assistant, Prince Harry be visiting the Plaasmoorde” memorial in South Africa in memory of white farmers slaughtered from their land by black gangs MeghanMarkle?
Just jealous 🙄
The relevance of traditional leaders is a bit questionable in this day and age
Why? They don't even dress nicely for us those traditional leaders, mabasiyeke
Are you for real Why Low self esteem Get over yourselves 😎😎
This is the content I signed up for.
Vele amasimba lento.
Traditional leaders are out of touch with reality.
