The Inter-Ministerial Task Team (IMTT) coordinating the ceremony to hand over a certificate of recognition to King Misuzulu ka Zwelithini is today visiting Moses Mabhida Stadium in eThekwini.

The certificate handover ceremony is scheduled for 29 October 2022.

The IMTT is led by the Minister of Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs (COGTA), Dr Nkosazana Dlamini Zuma, and it is made up of a number of Cabinet Ministers and the leadership of KwaZulu Natal province, led by Premier Nomusa Dube-Ncube.

The ceremony to hand over the certificate to His Majesty The King is an important milestone.
