He came from South Africa to Zimbabwe pulling cattle for the Boers. My grandmother explained it to us last year and I finally understood my obsession with Xhosa culture.

    I am also interested in finding out about the historical background of the Nguni people which consists of Xhosa, Zulu, Ndebele, and Swazi people. Some of the dialects are also found in Swahili. Somehow we used to be one family despite the historic migration during those days. This video is indicative of African tribes and other ethnic groups to find each other. Today we are fighting against each other due to identity and lack of knowledge on culture, economic interests, class factor, and manipulation by other racial groups from around the world. OVERALL KUDOS TO THE CREATOR OF THE VIDEO. This will go a long way in changing the perceptions of some of our brothers and sisters.

      I totally agree with you my brother. The similarities in the Bantu languages of sub-saharan Africa tell us we all come from a common source. We must have been part of one large nation early in our history before we split into tribes and migrated our separate ways. Knowledge of self is surprising. If we trace our history far enough we will realise we are connected in the best possible ways. Learn your history and you will discover the ones you think are your enemy, are actually your long-lost family. SIMUNYE.

    @Prince, thank you so much for this wonderful video 🙏🙏🙏.
    It is quite educational and informative. Some of the things mentioned here were part of my school test/ exam questions for isiXhosa language( for general knowledge.)
    I've actually known for some time now that we do have Xhosas in Zimbabwe. To be honest this video has greatly inspired me. As Xhosas, in addition to what we already have documented in our history, I feel we need to revisit our history and continue to expand it. We should also fill in the missing gaps in our history. As Africans, we should be writing history from our own perspective now. Sadly, our history is often documented from the perspective of the colonizers.
    We would like to appeal to the scholars and to those who still have parents, grandparents and great grandparents to keep documenting our history whenever it is being told. Let us also document those Bedtime Stories zakwaXhosa ( iintsomi ). It would be nice if those Bedtime Stories were documented and published in books that could be used for South African School Syllabus for Lower Grade Classes, so that we can enrich the vocabulary of these learners and improve their grammar.
    This would ensure that our language, which is rich, full of Idioms & Idiomatic expressions ( Izaci namaQhalo esiXhosa) is preserved from generation to generation. Our Culture and Heritage will also be preserved.
    This video is rich and all-encompassing! Our traditional dishes are also mentioned: i.e umngqusho, ulusu, isophu, uqumatana, imifino (isgwampu).... Mhhhhhh, I miss these dishes!!! Due to lack of rain and poor agricultural practices, we no longer have these good dishes. These are good and nutritious dishes that preserved our previous generations and kept them strong and healthy for many years....
    Going down memory lane, I miss those good olden days of Agricultural and Farming wealth in our tribe ( zentlutha yakwaXhosa ) ☘️☘️🌾🌾🥦🍯...
    Once again thank you @Magriza Made Me Cook, for inspiring us.
    Bravo!!!
    Sending Love and Peace from South Africa, Eastern Cape Province.

      This video has greatly inspired me. I feel that this is a great starting point for us as the Xhosa generation of the time. In addition to what's already documented in our history, this video serves as a reminder that we need to continue writing our own history as Africans.
