Yi Hosana le, hayi lokho okushoyo

It was one language and they were all people of one tribe when they arrived in Timbave(now Zimbabwe) sometime BC. Others lived in the East of the country and others in the West. They ruled the country as a kingdom from the east of the country till some of them, who were not from royal family(the Rozvi), formed an army and ended the kingdom ruled by a Maka(king), then formed the Rozvi kingdom as new rulers. The Tozvi then based their headquarters in the west of the country. They are all same people

They are x1 person

Most of tribes that are original Kalanga do this kind of dance, like Vendas, Pedi are children of Venda, that's why they have adopted some of Venda culture, like this dance, Dinaka, and so forth, in Northern Sotho there is a lot of tribes that trace their roots to Vhukalanga, tribes like Bakone, Balobedu, Babirwa, Vhanyai

What is that dance by bapedi woman called? Malesela Radebe

hosana is a Kalanga culture not ndebele!!

Wrong. Goo check again. This is tjiKalanga

@@loratobaenele5125 Khalanga is part of the Ndebele Kingdom in Matebeleland today.

The song is about an African Shrine place called "Njelele", a place with so much ancestoral importance. Aficans used to go there when there was drought to ask for the rain. The song tgoes "Khona le Njelele akuyi muntu, Gogo uyambiza" meaning "There at Njelele noone goes there, Grandmother is calling me".

Havarqmbe ,we acknowledge that , I guess is the same with the shonas ,some don't believe they're the same people

I think it is from Botswana - if you listen to the commentary from the people watching it’s all in Setswana. Because borders are manmade, im sure the culture seen in Zimbabwe with the khalanga people you’re speaking of would be very similar if not the same to the kalanga people in Botswana :)

@Bryan Lekolwane yes, but these are same people. Borders were made by colonizers. Njelele is in Matebeleland in Modern day Zimbabwe.

It's in Botswana. This traditional group is from my home village Ramokgwebana, close to Plumtree hence the Ndebele. People in Ramokgwebana aren't Ndebele, They're Kalanga, but there obviously has been interactions between the two tribes.

also pay attention to the colors of the beads around their waist and heads, they are blue black and white , which signifies the Botswana flag. a lot of villages closer to the Zimbabwe/ Botswana boarder speak Ndebele on the Botswana side, because those where not the original boarders that were made by the natives/Africans

A voice shouts off the scene.....'bongwanake'.
