Prince Simakade traditionally crowned as King of amaZulu by family faction 

A faction of the AmaZulu royal family has traditionally crowned Prince Simakade as King of the Zulu nation. This is despite other members of the royal house and government officially recognising his brother, King Misuzulu, as leader of the nation. On Saturday night, people gathered at Enyokeni royal palace for Prince Simakade's kraal-entering ceremony. Royal family members supporting him said only they can appoint a King, saying they do not recognise Misuzulu as King. Historian Professor Musa Khulekani Xulu is the founder of Indonsa Yesizwe Think Tank, which focuses on the Regeneration of the Zulu Kingdom and other Kingdoms in South Africa, Africa and the Diaspora through the promotion of traditional and indigenous knowledge.
