Friends , Foes , Brotehrs and Sisters; I have a dream that one day we will gather eMatopo to rebuild the grave of the mighty conqueror of a vast portion of Southern Africa. The man who founded Mthwakazi, the man who was loved and chastised by iLembe eleqa amanye amalembe...what a man he was, what a leader, what a unifier, what a warrior, what a King, over 30 tribes conquered, over a thousand miles covered, over 5 million desecendants of his men and army..owashiya abantwana emazweni, owadabula oMhlahlandlela oGibixhegu, nesigodlo saseNkungwini. I have a dream that one day we will put his grave to a respectable status, we will put his map of conquers, victories and long journey from his birth place to his last day koMthwakazi on the site where he today lies. It must look like Rhodes grave, it must look like Napoleon's it must look like that of the thousand s of imperial soldiers taht Britain and other colonisers have built for tehir war heroes...i will be ashamed should okaMashobana avuke to see what a great nation he has built, but how little attention his resting place has been given. Bayethe Mzilikazi , Bayethe Mntungwa, bayethe Mthwakazi ... i long for that day....
