Sigwcawu died last week in the Mthatha hospital in the Eastern Cape aged 51. He ruled AmaXhosa nation for more than 14 years. He has been described as a peace maker and very passionate about developing rural communities.
AmaXhosa Royal family spokesperson, Prince Zolile Bens -Ncamashe says, “We started by observing the traditional rituals which are part of the processes of taking the body to where it will be put to rest. We obviously conducted a service which was led by the clergy working together with the family as well as the contingent of traditional leadership from both abaThembu and amaMpondo.”
“Obviously, when it comes to the categorization, it not being the first instance of burial of the king in the Xhosa kingdom, taking into account the precedence that already exists in terms of the funeral accorded to the late His Majesty King Xolile Sigcawu, we hope that will also provide useful guidance in making the determination.”
