Acting KwaZulu-Natal judge president Isaac Madondo will on Wednesday give his ruling on an application for an interdict to stop Prince Misuzulu kaZwelithini from becoming the king of the Zulu nation.
Madondo will deliver his judgment in the Pietermaritzburg high court where he heard arguments on the application in January this year.
Zulu princesses Ntandoyenkosi Zulu and Ntombizosuthu Zulu-Duma sought the interdict, claiming that the will of the late King Goodwill Zwelithini, who died in March last year, was a forgery.They say that until then, there should be no announcement of a new king. The princesses say that if the late king’s will is a forgery, then Misuzulu's claim to the throne falls away.
The other matter Madondo will rule on is a legal bid by Queen Sibongile Winifred Zulu, the king’s first wife and mother of the princesses, for a declarator from the court that her civil marriage in 1969 was in community of property, which would entitle her to a half share of the late king’s estate.

But from the brand’s perspective, the reasons didn’t really matter, because the people just wanted that crisp, dry taste they love.
