>Immediately after the death of King Misuzulu's father, historians and cultural experts predicted that King Misuzulu would be the one appointed to the throne, as he was the son of the late King and the late King's Great Wife, giving him increased status among the late King's other 28 children.[11] At the time, some senior members of the royal family called the debate over succession "premature".[7] At King Goodwill Zwelithini's funeral service, the late king's sister, Princess Thembi Ndlovu stated that the Royal Family did not yet know who the next king would be and that the individual would be "chosen by God".[12]

>On 29 April 2021, approximately 7 weeks after the death of King Goodwill Zwelithini, Queen Regent Mantfombi Dlamini herself died from an unspecified illness, without having publicly appointed the next Zulu monarch.[13] However, on 7 May 2021, at the public reading of the late Queen's will, it emerged that she had appointed King Misuzulu as the next king of the Zulu nation.[14] The announcement was met with protest from certain members of the royal family and King Misuzulu, present at the reading of the will, was escorted away to safety by the South African Police Service and a security detail from eSwatini.[14][15]
