Misuzulu kaZwelithini
Misuzulu kaZwelithini is the current king of the Zulu nation, who ascended to the throne in 2021 following the death of his parents. Known as the 'lion of the nation', he is a custodian of Zulu traditions, which include polygamy. His reign has been marked by controversy, particularly regarding his marital choices, as he has opted to divorce his first wife, Queen Ntokozo kaMayisela, which has shocked many in South Africa, given the cultural significance of marriage in Zulu society.
