Buthelezi says the applicants should allow the king to continue his work.
The AmaZulu nation’s traditional Prime Minister Thulasizwe Buthelezi has described Friday’s ruling of the High Court in Pietermaritzburg as a major blow to the applications. The court ruled that five Royal Family members’ claim that AmaZulu King Misuzulu kaZwelithini was not fit to rule must be removed from public record.
The claim is contained in an affidavit which the Royal Family members filed in November last year. They were seeking to remove the king from the throne.“Today’s court decision is a major blow for Prince Mbonisi and all those who are opposed to the Zulu King because all the allegations, unsubstantiated allegations which they were trying to pin to discredit the king. The judge found that they deserved to be struck out in the strike-out application.
