Mixed reactions to VhaVenda kingship judgement - SABC News - Breaking news, special reports, world, business, sport coverage of all South African current events. Africa's news leader.

There have been mixed reactions from residents in Limpopo, following the ruling by theJacob ZumaThe court has also declared unlawful the August 2010 decision by the Mphephu-Ramabulana Royal Family Council to recognise Toni Mphephu-Ramabulana as King.

Princess Masindi Mphephu took the matter to the SCA, arguing that the Customary Law of male succession, which led to the recognition of her uncle, Toni Mphephu-Ramabulana, as the King of VhaVenda had violated her right to equality.“It is the best decision because in SA we are governed by the Constitution and all men and women are equal,” says one of the residents.

Another resident says, “As an elderly woman, I’m asking myself if she will be able to lead the nation as a woman. Men must be leaders. I don’t think she will be able to lead as a woman. Toni Mphephu must be the King. A woman cannot lead the nation.”

This is a huge victory over partriachy and discrimination in terms of gender. A huge and celebrated victory for women. This is a good lesson for all men who think women are sub-human and less capable to lead. Congratulations to Queen 👑 Masindi Mphephu Ramabulana 💪🏾

Good, now arrest the tsotsi that stole the Vbs money. He was not supposed to be king at the first place. He was just a ' Ndumi' and we know that Ndumi does not become a king. He must refund all the money and all his assest must be freezed .
