Never in a million years. I am not Zulu and have no reason whatsoever to acknowledge this 'king'. SADTUKZN is being nonsensical. No one is forced to celebrate this occasion , no one is forced to learn about anothers culture. SADTUKZN must focus on making sure the current EA's are employed permanently and are paid what they deserve. ANCKZN DBE_KZN lead us ! you just have understand and appreciate that you are in KZN of which the cultural/traditional head is King Misuzulu.
