I see Baba Phathisa Nyathi, I make time, we need more of him and his wisdom on all platforms.
I love the story about Mzilikazi and the Ndebele. I am from a rural village just 70km of Gaborone in South Africa. The village is called Molatedi. There are some of us who are said to be the decedent of a woman who was Mzikalizi's daughter who was among the people who got lost when the Matebele passed in that area. The best would be to get the story from someone as knowledgeable as ubaba Nyathi.
Organic historian! Phambili duna likaNyathi!
This is deep and rich history of the amaNdebele siyabonga baba Nyathi
Beautiful rich history the only city which was never named after coloniser Ko Bulawayo thank you sharing this knowledge Mr Nyathi
I stayed here in Bulawayo since I was a baby until now and I still love it....it has always been my hometown n I love it
Where you from originally
What a gracious and eloquent elder and academic ❤
Siyabonga Baba Nyathi for the info
Rich history I love this we are related with Our people from kwaBulawayo
Ubaba uPhathisa Nyathi is a walking library of the Ndebele history. Siyabonga baba ulwazi lwakho lokusifundisa particularly at a time where our culture has been distorted, ignored and minimally practiced.Siyakuthanda koBulawayo, koNtuthu Ziyathunqa!😊
I loved living in Bulawayo..........Great times, great people of all races. I was a Policeman working in Mabutweni. Who was Lobangulas father. The township names were named after top men in his day., Kumalo, Luveve, Mabutweni, Mpopoma, Mzilijkazi, Luveve, Mugwegwe etc...yes sir I know them all very well. Remember Lobangula and Rhodes were great friends even to the point where his men guarded his grave at Matopas against the Shona who were Lobangulas enemies even then. Thats why years later Gukuruhundi happened because Mugabe wanted revenge against the Ndebele or Matabele people. Thank you for the history lesson sir, you have an amazing mind. Wish we were taught this subject at school instead of battle of Hastings.
I thought the City was named after KwaBulawayo in South Africa??
It's good to have people like you . Who really know how good Ndebele people are. We lived with shona boys . As neighbors they were like our children for years.
How can Shona like Ndebele when they took part of our land are you crazy. Mzilikazi was an imperialists just like Cecil Rhodes. Mugabe was not avenging any historical conflict but was just fighting opposition.
@@foxbat473 is this the same land the Shonas took from the people they found in Zimbabwe when they migrated there from the Congo? Because we all know that land was already occupied before they arrived. And since when was committing genocide called fighting the opposition? If throwing pregnant women into mine shafts is fighting the opposition then I don’t know. To me that sounds like the act of a coward.
@@Thembi31 We were the first ones to arrive in the 5th century we built Great Zimbabwe between 900 -1000 AD and many other across Zimbabwe like Kami and Dlodlo/ Danangombe ruins. We hardly came across Khoisans who were mostly on the West coast of Southern Africa most probably the few we met were assumed into out culture but there is no record. The Zulu nation were a part of our nation when they came from Congo in the 15th centutmry they lived with us at Mapungubwe before moving to KZN area. In 1980 Ushewokunze wanted us to rename Bulawayo to Guruuswa its original name. Gukurahundi is not a Shona thing we never supported it and there were a lot of Shonas who were killed for opposing it
Bright minds here
He is not reading he is speaking what is in his mind perfectly.

The name Bulawayo remains profoundly appropriate. Wonke umuntu wakoBulawayo uqhubeka enguBulawayo nanamuhla.
Very true in Africa our older people were our libraries. That's why the saying in Africa when an old man dies a library burns down.

Thanks to our Historian Mr Nyathi, this is very informative, especially to our kids, they must know all this
Oh my…this is so interesting…there is so much I don’t understand, but how deep this culture and its ramifications….wish I could sit under the teaching of this historian
First time learning about Ndebele people or Ndebele History.
eNyathi baba. Siyabonga imbali emhlophe, ejujile ngoBulawayo wethu omuhle hle.
Listening to this rich history... Gives me a sense of belonging...
Siyabonga baba !!! lobabengathini we have a history !
Good to learn from you. Ngizobala amabhuku akho wonke. So should young person from Mthwakazi, it's important that we know about our history.
The book laphum elinye lingakatshoni helped me a lot to eqiup myself about Ndebele history
Baba Siyabonga kakhulu ngiyacela futhi ngizithoba.Ibizo NginguThandolwenkosi Bhebhe ugogo NguMaSiwela ezalwa NguMamkhwanananzi owendela KoBhebhe umkhulu ozala Ubaba USeNkayi ESiNgwangombe ngizalwa Ngu Ethel Mabhena.Siyabonga ngembali yethu.
I wish we learned about Southern history more, if many people actually knew that most of our African people we together, colonialism separated our people too much and our history was lost. If we teach Kids at a Young age especially Kids from South Africa, they won’t have that Xenophobic mindset but now because all we learn about is European History and Half of the History of Africa, we learnt tht Mzilikazi is a Zulu but never knew that they were actually called Ndebele people when Mzilikazi left Zululand to go to Zimbabwe
But Ndebele in Mpumalanga doesn't sound similar to our Zim Ndebele. That confuses me
And Ndebele history is suppressed in Zimbabwe.
@@ironore1000 nobody is suprasing your history bcs the same way the shona and european history is taught in Zim is the same way your history is taught but the problem is is that you want every one even the non ndebeles to practice your culture
@@lightlight9861not true, Ndebele people don’t spread their culture or disrespect others, or force/expect people to speak their language and follow their norms like some culture is wont to do, even abroad. Instead, they just want to enjoy and express it without molestation or suppression. That’s all. If you’re well travelled, particularly in countries with significant numbers of Zimbabweans, a common refrain is the distinction between one loud, boisterous and impetuous group and others. Nuff said.
I agree the is fact that stands is that the is no northern ndebele but they are zulus . But thru history renamed their language to ndebele But there is a southern ndebele which mostly found in mpumalanga. Zulu people do not all speak the some of the same zulu words when speaking . Watching shakailembe you hear some northern ndebele
Baba Nyathi wenze umsebenzi omkhulu ukusehlukanisela ngembali yethu. Ubuyithi bethu imnvelaphi yethu . Ususivule amehlo sazibona njengo Adam lo Eve abadla esihlahleni ababengasi vunyelwanga banana ukuzibona ukuthi babe hamba ze kusukela lapha umthwakazi usezazi isiqu sakhe. Yikusivunulisa lokho isizwe sika mthwakazi. Siyabonga Nyathi.

Yhooo, this elder is a goldmine.
Love this
Siyabonga baba Nyathi. Eish kuqhakathekile to record & pass i history yethu to future generations bakithi !!!
KO meaning the place U meaning the person KObulawayo the place then Unyathi the person O 'bulawayo' a description of what is being done to the person like in this case the one who is being killed, On the other hand i heard kwabulawayo was there in Kzn where Mzilikazi came from isnt it that Lobhengula just took the name from his forefathers stories and just to instil fear on his enemies that his place is not to play with
Its KoBulawayo
Yes Bulawayo existed in KZN during king Shakas time. That's fact
My Elder , honourable P Nyathi..Bulawayo has no roots with Lobengula..it has to do with King Mzilikazi who had experience with the original Kwa Bulawayo in Kwa Zulu Natal..the place is in Eshowe..
It's a serious miscarriage of justice to suggest that Bulawayo belongs to Lobengula yet it's his father and many elders who came from KwaZulu eg..Lotshe KaHlabangane (Magalela clans) Chief Mazwi Gumede..Do you suggest that Mzilikazi lived without a Kingdom? And how can a King be one without a throne name?
Even today my Leader..I know that place in Eshowe..I saw the eSamagwala tree.where it's said the cowards were killed by King Shaka...hence eSamagwala (isihlahla)
Thina sifuna the way foward Kzn Zulu to remove the big lock abakhiye ngayo e kzn ivulwe Amandebele akwazi ukungena kubo.😁😁 why amazulu abafana baka king shaka zulu benza kanje bevala imnyango.
Cha bhudi ngoku khulu ukuhlonipha iqhiniso emhlabeni alikho uma sibuka ngelinyi langa isilo u zwelithini ethula inkulumo yakhe esizweni ekhumbuza isizwe ukuthi abantu baziqhenye ngevelaphi yabo bazi ukuthi bavelaphi badabukaphi.
Thina abakwa Khumalo sichwaswa ngo kwebala kodwa iqhiniso lilodwa singabakwa zulu la esidabuka khona. Uma ngi buka ngeso lokhozi kweyiswa ihlupheko nobuzima esibhekane nabo. Uma kungaba khona into enhle ewela esizweni sika khumalo sibabazwe ngezinyi zizwe ngi sho bazo sondela abakwa zulu benona iqhatha eliphethwe yisizwe sika khumalo.
Kodwa bhudi uma sikhoza sithandaza enkozweni umfundisi etshumayela niyaziphika isolo zoku chwasa ngebala. Uxhamalala U zuma ukhombisile ubuntu ngesikhathi engu mongameli wavulele isizwe sika khumalo imnyango ethize 😀😀
Ngithi ningabuya kodwa hayi manje. Sisanezinkinga okufanele sizilungise khona la Emzansi Afrika. Kodwa sizonivulela umnyago mhlawumbe ngabo 2030 lapho.
Siyabonga bab'uMdluli umlandu omuhle kangaka ,,,,,

That's good news
Very true
Ngjcela ukulungisa umhlonishwa . Igamaelithi Kwa Bulawayo. Waqembhuka nalo kwaZulu. Ukuze athi sekukaBulawayonalapha okushoukuthi akasaqhubeki. Phela kubokwakwakhiwe ndaweniyabeyaziwangokuthi ikwaBulawayo. Kwa Zulu
No angivumelani nawe nduna lapho
I agree with you!
Bulawayo is a place in KZN .. Eshowe to be precise...in that place there's a tree called isihlahla samagwala..
Udlula ithuna lika Nandi..king Shaka's mother!
Ezansi wehle ngomgwaqo indawo yakhona kuthiwa kukwaMaqhakaza..kulapho ke kwaBulawayo..God willing I'll do documentary about how Bulawayo of Zimbabwe came about..so far the information is scarce..my resident UBaba uGwala, Mphephethe uGodo lwaseNgwavuma died last year so am left with Mbuso Khoza..and I'm Costa Mazwi Gumede a descendant of Magona Gumede a first born of Chief Mazwi Gumede, the big brother of Chief Menyezwa Gumede in Dongamuzi in Lupane.
Nyathi I wanna know more about history of Nyathi surname
It really means that Southern Africans we actually one Tribe and that the Khoisan People must’ve not been the first people of Africa.

Am confused by the fact that Mzilikazi grew under Zwide why if his mother is Mandiweni?
What do you mean
This man is a library
IsiZulu leso enisikhulumayo
Tne name koBulawayo is Not related the Bulawayo of KwaZulu? Same with eNtumbane and Mzingwane or better still Muzi waNgwane the Mkhizes who came with AmaNtungwa?
Njube n nguboyenja i didn't get it ryt
Njube and nguboyenja were Lobengulas sons
i remember at my early primary level in 90s we used to be forced ndebele at school guests what in beitbridge 500 kilometers away from bulawayo punching as for speaking my venda language form that year I hate this language belong to mzilikazi also I learn about ndebele and shona history until I hate those two language until today ndebele and shonas do not force your language to as venda people we got venda language given by God
It's the zanu pf regime, not the people
Zulu nation
Nguni nation
This is total wrong history Muzilikazi was a warrior he never be in Matebeland until 1924 when he was coming for the awards given by colone for helped dissolve the Rozvi empire colonial properganda manipulate our history Mr its all wrong we can talk it from 1099
If the British arrived after the Ndebele nation, historically speaking, the Ndebele people would have been the first "colonialist settlers"? If you are a true historian you have a responsibility to be accurate, factual and unbiased. Otherwise you fall into the category of politician.
Maybe you are the one who falls in the category of politician because it’s common knowledge and factual that the Shonas are foreign to Zimbabwe and migrated from the Congo. The only difference is that they came before the Ndebele and the British. When they migrated there there were other tribes living in Zimbabwe like the San people for example. So truly speaking historically the Shonas could have been the first “colonialist settlers”.
@@Thembi31 I agree with your comment. I was speaking to a specific discussion... the subject is broad and can't be covered in one comment so calm down.
No, the first colonialists we Shona people. Thats a fact
@@greenpeace7380 As I responded to another commentator, I did not want to write a historical dissertation, I was responding to the video creator.
Phathisa udlezi udukisa abantu why Bulawayo in Zimbabwe and Kwa Bulawayo in kwanongoma in KZN ntumbane in Zimbabwe and in KZN enyokeni in Zimbabwe and enyokeni in Kwa nongoma The problem is you guys you speak broken Nguni you mixing it with shona eg yini imuli? thina sazi umndeni
Lobaba udukisa abantu ayikho indaba yakhe angisamthembi ayi kahle kahle ku Kwa Bulawayo not ko Bulawayo
Sho brother uyaphazama Kwabulawayo is not based Nongoma ( NND). Kwabulawayo based in Eshowe Esgodini Habeni (NES) under inkosi Bheke Showe Zulu.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@dax4949😀😀
With all due respect back thn Lobengula was zulu and he did not speak isindebele as spoken currently so he was going to say kwaBulawayo
He's referring to ' umuntu Obulawayo ' ,,the person who's killed,as a figurative saying and that like the Zulu who're referring to the literally killed person bcz Shaka used to kill people,,so angiboni kuts uwrong ngani cz uchazile ekcalen the difference between the meaning of the two words,,here he referred to as it's him being killed by being given that throne,as Nguni people we also refer to someone being killed if given a certain position,,n in that Zulu case it's means the place where Shaka used to kill people
Why do these so called purpoted historians or biographers purposely omit the crucial beginning of everything and pretend like nothing existed before then. The ndebele who were chased by shaka zulu during the mfecane crossed into zimbabwe into this shona inhabited area, decimated the local shona tribes there and formed the ndebele kingdom under Mzlikazi and then lobengula, and thats when Bulawayo emerged.simples
There you go,why spoil this Beautiful video with your tribalist mind ...anywhere that's wat you shona shit holes are known for.....fuck off
There you go,why spoil this video with your tribalist mind ,I am not surprised coming from a shona shit hole like yourself,fuck off you shona shit,you always think you're special.
You are crazy there was no shona in matebeleland
@@thabanidube1137 . What a half witted approach from a puny tribalist seeking applause from like minded quarters. The shona tribe was the tribe that was based North of limpopo and whether that area was scarsely populated with scatted settlements isnt the reason why you suggest the fact that the shonas weren't present.Your pathetic take lines up properly with the Boers in South Africa who echoes the same sentiments that South Africa wasn't inhabited untill they showed up.
I guess the Ndebele did the same thing the Shonas did when they decimated the local San tribes that they found in Zimbabwe when they were running away from the Congo
