Hi Delia,
I hope you receive a hearing from Minister Buthelezi, as you go I will sing
SHOSHOLOZA and it sentiments, and am sure that the others listers will join in.

Regarding Minister Mangosuthu Buthelezi, I have been reading about Shaka and there
are references to the Buthelezis. Is there a connection between him and them? and do
we know Minister Buthelezi's ancestral line, hopefully some on the list can enlighten
us on this.
Regards
Andre van Rensburg
