| The Ngoni, originally from South Africa, escaped from the Boers and Zulus and settled in Eastern Zambia. |
| The great rivals to the Shonas are the Ndebeles, who are offshoots of the Zulus. |
| The Matabeles are an off-shoot of the once mighty Zulus who conquered most of southern Africa in the early 19th Century. |
| Unfortunately, the Zulus did not resort to guerrilla warfare as previous opponents had done, but fielded an enormous army. |
| The Zulus supported the apartheid regime and are a thorn in the side of the new government, which is dominated by the Xhosas. |
| Thank you to all my thousands of supporters, my people, all the farmers and all the Tswanas and Zulus who love me. |
