Buthelezi was readmitted to hospital after developing “a complication” earlier this month.
“Prince Buthelezi continues to make steady progress under the supervision of his medical team in hospital. We remain hopeful that his birthday, will not be spent in hospital.
“The family is expected to formally update the nation about the health and well-being of uMntwana waKwaPhindangene, later in the week,” said Van der Merwe.Last month, political parties, including the Democratic Alliance and ActionSA, extended their best wishes to Buthelezi following his admission to hospital.
“As a revered and respected leader of the Zulu people, and a cherished and admired hero of both the struggle for South Africa’s freedom, and the establishment of our democratic dispensation, HRH [His Royal Highness] remains a poignant figure to our nation,” the DA said. ActionSA KwaZulu-Natal chairperson Zwakele Mncwango said Buthelezi has played “a critical role in fighting for a democratic South Africa”.and Prince Mangosuthu is one that we respect and are proud of. We send our sincere prayers and well wishes for a full recovery to uMntwana wakwa Phindangene, iNkosi Mangosuthu Buthelezi.”
