Mgiliji Nhleko passed away on Monday due to tuberculosis, he’s going to be buried at KwaNongoma in his birthplace (Hlalangwenya). The leaders of the regiments met to discuss their way forward as to how are they supposed to conduct a proper send-off of their former general.
Nhleko has been the commander of AmaZulu regiments under the Kingship of the late King, he had a close relationship with him because in some cases the King would take Mgilija on overseas trips.
The passing of King Zwelithini made the former commander do the unthinkable, he publicly disobeyed COVID-19 regulations when he called for all Amabutho to present themselves at KwaNongoma where King Zwelithini was to be buried. In his response, Amabutho filled the place most of them not wearing musk and there was no social distancing.
