Umlando wesizwe sakwaZwane

MNGWENI, Lindamkhonto, Nsele, Ntshosho, Mafu, Mangethe, Cengesi, Thinta, Dumisa, Nkanyezi, Mhlanganyelwa.

Esizweni sakwaZwane iNkosi yaso eyaduma kakhulu uMangethe. Wayakhe umuzi wakhe ngokuyela ngaseHlobane. Namuhla kunomgwaqo osuka ngasoBivane wedlule eduze kwetshe elikhulu ngasesandleni sokudla. Lelo litshe yiTshe LikaMangethe.

Wayehlala phezu kwalo abuke yonke indawo yesizwe sakwaZwane. Lelo litshe namuhia liheha izihambeli ezisuka kulo lonke elakwaMthaniya namaphethelo. Eduze kwetshe kunethuna lakhe uMangethe ngaphansi kwayo intaba. Ithuna lisendaweni ezenza samgede.

Kuthe ngemuva kokubusa kukaMangethe sekufike noMntwana uMkabayi endaweni, kwagcina indawo isisikelwe nabakwaMthethwa bakaMnyayiza kaMthakathi, abakwaSibiya nabanye.

Izwe bese liqolwe ngabelungu bezenzela umathanda kusukela ngowe-1887 amaBhunu esungula into ayibiza ngeNew Rebublic ezweni lakwaZulu ngesikhathi seNgonyama uDinuzulu. Ngakhoke kusukela eMakhosini oCengesi kuya phansi eNkosini uMhlanganyelwa Zwane isizwe sakwaZwane besesihlakazekile. Iningi bese lingaseNewcastle abanye bengaseMnambithi.

Isizwe samaZulu sinomlando omude osuka eNubia okwakuyi-Ethiopia yasendulo, lapho namuhia sekulizwe laseSudan okukhona nenhlokodolobha okuthiwa yiJuba. Kulapho futhi zonke izizwe zabamnyama e-Afrika zadabuka khona ngowezi-3300 Singakafiki Isikhathi SikaKhrestu.

Kulapho amaZulu ngaphansi kweNgonyama uNtu ozala uMnguni ohlangeni nabo bonke abomdabu ababelapho eNubia asungula khona impucuzeko yokuqala ngqa emhlabeni ebandakanya ulwazi lokubhala iMedu Netcher [Mdw Ntr], ulwazi lwesayensi imathemethiksi, ifiziksi, ubunjiniyela, ulwazi lwemithi, ezolimo, ezenkolo (uMvelinqangi), ikhalenda yokuqala emhlabeni nokunye okuningi ngesikhathi zonke izizwe zomhlaba ngokukaSolwazi uCheik Anta Diop waseSenegal zisahlala emigedeni nasemaweni, zisesebumnyameni obesabekayo.

Ukufudukela eningizimu kwamaZulu nokusakazeka kwezinye izizwe zama-Afrika ne-Afrika yonkana kwabangelwa ukuhlaselwa kwezwekazi lase-Afrika okwakuvela e-Asia okwaqala ngesikhathi kuhlasela amaHyksos ngowe-1600 BCE, abelungu bona bahlasela okokuqala ngqa ngaphansi kweGriki u-Alexander the Great ngowe-332 BCE kwagcina kuhlasele amaPersia ase-Iran nama-Asyria ase-Iraq.

Ngakhoke izizwe zama-Afrika zasakazeka nezwekazi lonke ngokukaDiop othi kodwa kusukela ngowe-14 ekhulwini Singakafiki Isikhathi SikaKhrestu lonke izwekazi i-Afrika lalihlala abaThwa babesakazeke nalo lonke kuze kuyofika lapho sekuseCape Town namuhla. Laba kuthiwa ngamaKhoisan. Ngakhoke bangama-Afrika ngokugcwele kwazise ulimi lwesiZulu o-X, C, Q, (ongwaqabathwa) lwabathatha kubo ngoba kwakuhlalwa ndawonye kwaganiselwana iningi lamaKhoisani lagcina lishabalele. Ngakho-ke alikaze izwekazi kuthiwe lalingahlali muntu ezindaweni ezithile.
Abahlaseli bama-Arab asebazinza e-Egypt, eTunisia, eLibya, eMorocco baqole lezo zindawo ngenkathi ama-Arab ehlasela kusukela ngowama-640 ADE echela inkolo yomphrofethi wawo uMohammed esuka eMiddle East.

Abelungu amaDutch ahlasele ezwenikazini ngowe-1652 amaNgisi ahlasela ngowe-1795 okokuqala abuya okwesibili ngowe-1806 esezoqola amazwe amaningi ase-Afrika.

Izizwe sakwaZulu zasizimele futhi saba ngesokugcina ngesikhathi seNgonyama uCetshwayo ukunqotshwa ngamaNgisi ekuhlaseleni kwawo mhla zingama-22 kuMasingana ngowe-1879.

Kuleyo mpi eSandlwana ngalelo langa amasotsha angama-580 amaNgisi abulawa agwazwa ngemikhonto yimpi yeNgonyama uCetshwayo, amanye abulawa futhi ngalo lelo langa eNyezane naseGingindlovu. AmaNgisi azama ukucoboshisa uZulu empini yakwaCezwa mhla zi-2 kuNhlangulana ngowe-1888 kodwa amabutho eSilo uDinuzulu adla umhlanganiso. Ngawo lowo nyaka abulala anqoba izimaku zamaNgisi ngaphansi kukaZibhebhu kaMaphitha kwaNduna eduze kwakwaNongoma mhla zingama-22 kuNhlangulana ngowe-1888 okwalandelwa ukuboshwa nokudingiselwa eSt. Helena kweNgonyama uDinuzulu sabuyiswa amaNgisi esethi silingana nawo wonke aMakhosi kodwa uZulu wakwenqaba lokho.

Kwaba ngokokuqala ngqa ukuthi iNgonyama yamaZulu iholelwe ngamaNgisi iholo lopondo abangamakhulu ayisihlanu.

Ngaphambi kwalokho zonke iziNgonyama zamaZulu zazinakekelwa ngamaZulu uqobo kwethulwa izinkomo zibulala inyoka kuze kufike eNgonyameni uCetshwayo lapho izinkomo iNyonikayiphumuli zazibulala inyoka zaqolwa ngabahlaseli bamaNgisi.

Umlando wakwa Ntuli | Ntuli origin

Abantu bakwaNtuli baziwa njengaMabhele. Batholakala endaweni engaphansi kwentaba iLenge ngaseMhlumayo, eMnambithi. Baziwa kakhulu ngokuthi uma befunga bathi, “Ngiwafunge aMabhele eseLenge!” Amanye aMabhele atholakala ngaseNtabeni yaseNkuzi ngenhla nomfula iNdaka ngaseWashibhange.

Kuthiwa langa limbe iNkosi uShaka izipholele ngaphansi komthunzi nenduna yayo kwabonakala ngefu lothuli liza ngakubona. Kuthiwa kwakukhona amadoda, abantu besifazane nezingane. Kuthiwa bathi uma befika ngasemfuleni uThukela iNkosi uShaka yababuza ukuthi babalekani bathi babaleka amazimuzimu. Kuthiwa iNkosi yayalela induna yayo eyayihleli nayo uMaphitha kaSithole ukuthi akahambe ayohlala nalabobantu ngaphansi kwentaba iLenge abagade bangadliwa amazimuzimu.

Kuthiwa iNkosi uShaka yabahlalisa ngaphansi kukaZihlandlo kaGcwabe Mkhize, endaweni yaseNkandla. Bafika eNkandla babizwa ngokuthi ngabakwaNtuli ngoba kwabonakala izintuli zishunqa bebalekela amazimuzimu. Bahlalisana kahle nabantu baseMbo kwaze kwavela uNdlela indodana kaSompisi Ntuli.

UNdlela wayehlakaniphe kakhulu waze wenziwa uNdunankulu kaZulu ngesikhathi kubusa uDingane kaSenzangakhona. UNdlela kaSompisi wasindisa uMpande ngesikhathi uDingane efuna ukumbulala ukuze athathe ubukhosi, kuthiwa uDingane wapha uMpande izinkomo eziyi 100 ngoba wayazi ukuthi uzohamba ayombonga. USompisi waxwayisa uMpande ukuthi angayi kuDingane ngoba uzombulala. UNdlela wagcina ebulewe uDingane ngoba eseka uMpande. Ngemuva kokubulawa kukaNdlela aMabhele eNkandla abuswa uGodide inkosana yakhe. UGodide wazala uMangati kwathi enye indodana kaNdlela uMavumengwana yena wazakhela ugazi ezikhulwini zezwe ngoba wayekhuthele kakhulu.

UMavumengwana wayeyibutho futhi engumngani omkhulu weSilo uCetshwayo. Ngenxa yobuqotho bakhe izikhulu zamsikele izwe ukusuka eNtumeni, eShowe kwaze kwagcina oThukela. Ufike khona wakha umuzi wawubiza ngokuthi kukwaNhliziyonde. UGodide, uMavumengwana kanye noZinti bakaNdlela Ntuli balwe izimpi zikaCetshwayo. UMavumengwana uzale uMfungelwa ozale uGqokinsimbi ozale uMzungezi ozale uS’thembiso obusayo njengamanje oYaya naseMbongolwane, eShowe. Obunye ubukhosi bakwaNtuli bukwaMkhonto, KwaNgoni endaweni yaKwaMaphumulo.

Amanye aMabhele atholakala ogwini oluseNingizimu neKwaZulu Natal. Abantu bakwaKhuboni bayingxenye yaMabhele. Bakhona nabanye abasesifundazweni saseMpumalanga KwaGuqa eWitbank ngoba uGuqa kwakungesinye sezibonda zakwaNtuli. Abantu bawela umfula uMzimvubu bakhelene nezizwe zamaXesibe eMpumalanga Kapa.

Izithakazelo zakwaNtuli
Mphemba!
Nin’ eniphemba ngamabele
Abafokazana bephemba ngezibi!

AbakwaMasuku | Masuku Origin | Masuku Clan | Izithakazelo Zabakwa Masuku | Umlando Wabakwa Masuku

Abantu bakwaMasuku kusengabantu bakwaNdwandwe. Abantu bakwaNdwandwe badabuka ngasezintabeni amaGudu.Lezi yizintatshana ezengamele umfula uPhongolo.Ngakho-ke kusashiwo uma kukhulekwa kwaNdwandwe, kwaNxumalo kumbe kwaMasuku kuthiwe ”Ndwandwe waseGudu”noma kuthiwe nina base’Gudunkomo’.iNdlu yaseKhohlo yaMaNdwandwe nokuyindlu yakwaNxumalo yona yazinza ngasentatshaneni iTshaneni enyakatho yomfula uMkhuze nalapho sekulidolobha laseMkhuze khona namuhla.

Indlunkulu yamaNdwandwe yona-ke yakha eMaGudu,iKhohlo lona lakha ngaseTshaneni. Ngakho-ke amathuna okhokho bakwaNdwandwe asemaGudu kuthi awokhokho bakwaNxumalo wona abengaseTshaneni. Abelungu sebaze bakhe iHhotela okuthiwa yiNtaba yeSipoki(Ghost Mountain),ngoba abazukulu bakwaNxumalo kwathi sebakhe kwaGasa(Gazankulu)babuya bezokhuluma nokhokho babo emathuneni ngaseTshaneni.Kodwa-ke abengwadi basebenzisa leli gama ukuheha izivakashi nokusebenzela nje imali.

AbakwaNxumalo babefike noSoshangane kwaGasa(eMozambikwe). Kwathi ngemuva kokunqotshwa kwenkosi uZwide inqotshwa yiLembe uSoshangane waphikelela enyakatho wafika wakha isigodlo sakhe sakwaGasankulu(Gazankulu nomaGazaland) asiqamba ngegama likakhokho wakhe uGasa kaManukuza kaLanga wokuqala.

ENdlunkulu yakwaNdwandwe kwaphuma enye ingxenye eyagcina ibizwe ngabakwaMasuku. Lokhu kwenzeka kanje:Inkosi yakwaNdwandwe uLanga (wokuqala) yakhipha izwi kunomsebenzi.

Le ngxenye yona yapheka ukudla ebusuku yadla yaqeda ukudla iphikisana nesinqumo senkosi. Kwathi uma kuzwakala enkosini ukuthi kukhona abaphikisane nezwi lenkosi lokuthi kungaphekwa,inkosi yakhipha izwi lokuthi kuhle bahambe emzini wakwaNdwandwe,baba ngabakwaMasuku ngokuoheka kwabo ebusuku.

Ngakho-ke ngesikhathi sokubusa kwenkosi uZwide kaLanga isibongo sakwaMasuku sasezivele sesikhona. Iningi labantu bakwaMasuku lahamba nenkosi uMzilikazi, inkosi yakwaSokhumalo.

AMAQHAWE AKWAMASUKU:

Mabili abaqhawe esibongweni sakwaMasuku. Elokuqala nguMadlenya Masuku owabe engumngane omkhulu weqhawe labeNtungwa uMzilikazi kaMashobane. UMadlenya waba ngomunye wezinsizwa ezaqokwa yiLembe ukuba ziyihlasela abeSuthu bakaHanesi.

Lokho kwakuyisu leLembe lokuyobulalisa uMzilikazi ngabeSuthu bakaHanesi ababakhe eNtabazwe(Harrismith).Ngaleso sikhathi uMadlenya kanye nezinye izinsizwa babe sebekade magcina ukulwa izimpi. Lezo zinsizwa uMzilikazi waziqamba igama elithi ‘iMbozisamahlanga’. Wanqotshwa uHanesi kuleyompi, zadliwa izinkomo zakhe.

Kwathi uma kugqabuka igoda phakathi kukaShaka noMzilikazi uMadlenya ukuba ngasohlangothini lukaMzilikazi. UZulu uhlasela amaNtungwa izikhawu ezimbili nje uMadlenya wayelwa ngasohlangothini lwamaNtungwa. Engani uMzilikazi wayezalwa yintombi yakhona kwaNdwandwe uNompethu. UMadlenya wasala empini yaseNtumbane nokuyimpi yesibili amaNtungwa ayilwa noZulu.

UMadlenya wazala uMbiko kaMadlenya owagina eseganwe yindodakazi kaMzilikazi uZinkabi. UMbiko kuthiwa wabe eyinkunzi yeqhawe. Wayehola ibutho elalaziwa ngokuthi ‘uZwangendaba’. Leli butho lagqama kakhulu ngenkathi linqoba amabhunu kaNdaleka Hendrick Potrigieter. Ngemuva kwaleyo mpi uMzilikazi waklomelisa uMbiko ngokumganisela uZinkabi.

Kwabuye kwaqubuka impi yomndeni esizweni sikaMzilikazi ngemuva kokukhothama kwakhe uMzilikazi. Kwathi ngemuva kukukhotha kweSilo uMzilikazi undunankulu wezwe uMncumbatha kanye nezinye izikhulu zombuso kaMzilikazi zaqoka uLobhengula nowayengeyona indlalifa ukuba athabathe izintabo. Inkosana kaMzilikazi kwabe kunguNkulumana owayesadingisiwe ngenkathi kukhotha uyise .uNkulumana wayelamana noZinkabi emhlane.

Kuthiwa ukubekwa kukaLobhengula kwamthukuthelisa kakhulu uMbiko wagcina ngokuphaka impi. Yadumelana-ke ekaMbiko nekaLobhengula kodwa ngeshwa wanqotshwa uMbiko, wafa ebulawa nguDliso kaMkhithika iqhawe likaLobhengula. Leyo mpi yalwelwa endaweni yakwaBulawayo eZimbabwe emfudlaneni owagcina oqanjwe ngayo leyompi kwathiwa umfula INgazini.Kuthiwa ngemva kwempi izinkubela zageza amanxeba azo kuwo lowo mfula.

Ngakho-ke amanzi ashintsha umbala, ngoba ayesexhubene negazi leZinkubela.Inkubela umuntu osinde empini.

Izibongo zikaMbiko kaMadlenya::

Mkhatshwa

Zikode

Mashobana

Mdleleni

Abantu bakwaMdleleni bangaMantungwa,baphuma kubantu bakwaKhumalo. UMdleleni okwaqanjwa ngaye isibongo wabe engumfowabo Mzilikazi, eyindodana kaMashobana njengabo oNzeni, oMzilikazi, oNgonyama oGquqgu nabanye. Imizi kaMashobana kwakuseNdinaneni kwabo Mzilikazi, eNyandeni kwabo Ngonyama owazala abakwaNyandeni, kanye naseNsingweni kwabo Mdleleni . UMashobana wayezele kakhulu izintombi, esengabala kuzo oNozipholo(uMafungwase), uNtanase, uNozinhlwathi(owagana uSikhunyane Dlamini eSwazini, wayengowaseNsingweni), uNgiyalila, uNozinyanga nabanye.

Lesi sizwe saMantungwa saqanjwa ngokhokho waso uMntungwa kaMbulazi. UMntungwa wazala uMabaso endlunkulu noKhumalo ekhohlo. UMabaso wazala uNyathi emzala nendodakazi kaLudwaba wakwaMajozi.UNyathi wazala uMthiyane. KuMabaso kwaphuma abeNtungwa ‎bakwaMabaso. Kuso lesi sibongo sakwaMabaso kwabuye kwakheka ezinye futhi izibongo ezifana nesakwaHlanguza, esakwaMlilo nezinye.

UKhumalo wazala uMkhatshwa owazala uZikode, uZikode wazala uGasa uMashobana noMagawozi nabanye.UGasa wazala uMagugu, uDonda kanye noSiwela owazala abakwaNkosi Ndlangamandla. UMashobana wazala uMdleleni okwaqanjwa ngaye isibongo sakwaMdleleni, uMakhatha,uNzeni, uMzilikazi, nabanye. Kuthiwa uMdleleni nguyena owayemdala kuwo wonke amadodana kaMashobana. Kuthiwa wayemdala impela kangangokuthi wayengamzala nomnawakhe uMzilikazi. Phela naye uMashobana kuthiwa wayemdala impela, emdala nakoDonda.

Ngesikhathi iLembe lixabane nenkosi uMzilikazi lake lamyeka uMdleleni, langamhlasela. Waze wahlaselwa nguMbomboshe omnyama(iSilo uDingane), selikhotheme iLembe eleqa amanye. Ingxabano phakathi kweLembe nenkosi uMzilikazi yabangwa izinkomo ezazidliwe kubeSuthu bakaHanesi ngaseHarrismith ithunywe yiLembe. Ngaleso sikhathi inkosi uMzilikazi yabe ingenye yezinduna zeNgonyama uShaka, yayingakabi inkosi. Kuyaziwa ukuthi mandulo kwakuthi uma iqhawe leNgonyama lidle izinkomo enkosini ethile lezo nkomo lalizethula zonke kuleyo Ngonyama esuke ilithumile /esuke ibusa. Kwakuba yiNgonyama-ke eklomelisa lelo qhawe elidle izinkomo.

INduna yeLembe uMzilikazi(owagcina naye eseyiNgonyama)wagodla ezinye zezinkomo ayezidle kuBeSuthu wangazethula kokaNdaba. Kanti kuzogijima umnewabo uNzeni kaMashobana ayobikela okaNdaba ukuthi ezinye zezinkomo umnwakhe wedlule nazo waziyisa kubo eNdinaneni.

Kuthiwa wathi uma ebuzwa ukuthi kungani engazethulanga zonke izinkomo wakhombisa okukhulu okwedelela. Laphaka impi iLembe yayohlasela eNgome lapho kwakwakhe khona abakwaKhumalo. Kwaliwa impi eyaliwa iziwombe ezimbili.

Isiwombe sokuqala wakwazi ukusinqoba umfoka Mashobana. Kwesesibili kuthiwa wanqotshwa.Kuyilapho -ke athatha isinqumo sokuthi abhekise amabombo enhla. Kwakuwunyaka ka1821 ngenkathi iNgonyama uMzilikazi isuka kwaZulu.

Yasuka yabheka enyakatho, yakha amadlangala endaweni yaseNtabazwe (Harrismith), yathi uma isuka eNtabazwe yabheka ngaseEmerlo ihamba ihlasela ezinye izizwe ngenhloso yokuzakhela ubungonyama. Yakha umuzi waseKuphumuleni ngasesiphethwini soBhalule(Oliphant River) khona eErmelo okwaqanjwa ngawo ilokishi lakhona i-Pumula.

Yahlala eEmerlo kusukela ngonyaka ka1822 kwaze kwaba unyaka ka1825 lapho eyabhekisa amabombo eMosega (Zeerust) yafika yakha amahlalankosi ayo uMkhwahla (induna kunguMkhaliphi Khumalo), uMncwazi (induna kunguMtotobi Mabaso) kanye neGabeni (induna kunguMaqhekeni Sithole). Yahlala kwelabeTswana yaze yasuswa amabhunu kaHendrick Poitgetier ngoLwezi 1837 ngemuva kokushiswa kweGaba, uMkhwahla, kanye noMncwazi ishiswa ngamabhunu kaPoti.

UMdleleni wahlala kwaZulu waze wadudulwa nguVezi(iSilo uDingane) efela izono zomnawa wakhe uMzilikazi. Impi kaVezi yamdudula uMdleleni yaze yayomuweza umfula uMthamvuna . Kuyileso sizathu-ke abantu bakwaMdleleni bande kakhulu kwaXhosa. Esendeni lakhe uMdleleni kwabuye kwaphuma abakwaNyawose esisazobuye sixoxe ngabo.

Liyavela igama lomuzi waseNsingweni ezibongweni zeSilo uDingane uma kuthiwa

‘ Bantu baseNsingweni ninezindaba!
Gijimani ngazo zonke izindlela

Niyobikela abakwaMashobana’
Ukuthi lukhulu luyeza luyanyelela
Silufanisa noPhunga noMageba’

Kanti nalo elikaMdleleni liyavela uma kuthiwa

‘Omemeze amaNtungwa akwaSokhumalo

Kasabela uMdlleleni kwasabela uMakhatha’

UMakhatha lona wayengowaseNsingweni elama uNozinhlwathi emnhlane. UNzeni wayezalwa yintombi yakwaMkhwanazi okaBebesi, yena-ke wayelanywa nguNoziwawa. Kuthiwa uNzeni naye wayemdala kakhulu kuMzilikazi. Isenzo sakhe sokuceba umnewabo eNgonyameni uShaka yisona esaholela ekutheni agcine eseyiswe kwagoqanyawo ngumnewabo uMzilikazi, efela bona ubumpimpi.

Liyavela igama likaNzeni ezibongweni zeNgonyama uMzilikazi uma kuthiwa

‘Indaba yenziwe nguNzeni kaSokhumalo
Wazingela ngasemoyeni esikhaleni sikaBhejane
UNakane lwamnamathela emhlane lwamanakashela
Lwaze lwayogqebhuza ngophondo iNtubeni
INkomo zabeNtungwa zenza inqaba
Zagqibula inqaba ngezimpondo
