Izithakazelo zakwa Shongwe Clan Names History and Origin

ByZakes

Globalization has led to the proliferation of surnames; one such name being Shongwe – one which occurs more commonly than any other country or territory. South Africa stands out among nations or territories as having more instances than any other of this surname.

Current Swazis can trace their heritage back to Nguni-speaking clans that migrated from northern East Africa through Mozambique into Eswatini during the fifteenth century. They intermarried with Sotho and San clan groups.

Matsafeni

Matsafeni’s legendary forebear was Matsafeni Mdluli, who led an insurrection against the Swazi kingdom during the 19th century and established an independent kingdom along the Ngwenya (Crocodile) River in Northern Swaziland that included farms known as Riverside Woodhouse Dingwell and Marathon.

Nearly seven years ago, the Rural Development and Land Reform Department transferred 6 000 hectares of farmland worth R62 million to Matsafeni Community Trust following successful land restitution claims against former owner HL Hall & Sons. This property included Mbombela Stadium’s property.

Sithole Shongwe, however, alleges that trustees have made unilateral decisions without consulting beneficiaries. Last week, Mpumalanga agriculture minister Dina Pule held an impromptu meeting of handpicked Matsafeni leaders at an Nelspruit restaurant without inviting Spoor or any of his colleagues who represent this community.

Mdluli

The Mdluli tribe originated from Northern sutu before migrating down into uBombo Mountains. They are well known for their remarkable organisational skills and focus, as well as being very humble; never afraid to overcome challenges that come their way.
