It is ALLEGED that the rivalry for the throne is the cause of the suicide of the head of the tribe of eMhlungwini in eMtshezi, KwaZulu Natal who was still mourning her husband, who is said to have taken a lot of pills because her mother-in-law is said to have been fighting for the chair, wanting to break it herself and one of her sons entered. It is being talked down about the suicide of Royal Silindile Yvonne Ndaba (43), who was the widow of King Zwelakhe Ndaba, who passed away in February this year after being shot dead by unknown people. It is said that there was a letter he had written to the Queen (mother-in-law) and her family which was eventually taken by the police at Ntabamhlophe station in Mtshezi.
A source of ILANGA in Kwabekabezeyo in Mhlungwini, who is close to the Ndaba family said, it is said that the mother-in-law Mrs. Nobentungwa Ndaba could not understand that the throne was held by the daughter-in-law. “There was a disagreement about the throne between the king and the queen, There are family members that the bride has been reporting to them about the bad situation in the house, since the King passed. The mother-in-law did not even want to hear about the throne being transferred to the bride despite the fact that the family had no problem with that. We heard that the Ntabamhlo police called the mother-in-law about a letter that appeared to be written by the bride but she ignored them,” she said.
Ndlakulu Ndaba’s not living well in his house was also confirmed by one of his friends who asked that his name be withheld. it was expected that on the 6th of August (August) he would break his fast, and then continue with his life because it was clear that his mother-in-law did not see her as fit to sit on the throne. “SHe was under pressure, going in and out of hospitals, suspecting that she was the one who did it and ended up she said.
Mr Bhekuyise Mlaba, the chief speaking on behalf of the Mhlungwini tribe, confirmed the death of the tribal chief. He denied that there was a tug of war between the head of the house and the mother-in-law.
“We are very shocked by the death of the head in this way. we knew that she would be held by her mother-in-law for two years because she was still mourning. The mother-in-law once held a seat for the old king to bow, until King Zwelakhe grew up. “We were looking for them to be quiet so that the sparrow can enter the skull when it is strong,” he said.
