President Cyril Ramaphosa will deliver the eulogy at the memorial service for King Goodwill Zwelithini kaBhekuzulu at around 10 am this morning.
People are urged to watch the ceremony using these media and not to visit Nongoma because of the coronavirus pandemic.
The King Shaka Visitor’s Centre at KwaDukuza in northern KwaZulu-Natal has experienced an increase in visitors since the passing of the King.
The King of the Zulu nation was laid to rest at the KwaDlamahlahla palace in Nongoma in northern KwaZulu-Natal, in a ceremony called ukutshalwa in the early hours of Thursday morning.
In Zulu culture, the term ukutshalwa refers to the belief that a King never dies but he is planted.
He has been hailed for reviving Zulu culture, strong traditional leadership, and leading the call for many social challenges like the fight against HIV/Aids.
