Why the special attention for Zulu people?

KWAZULU-NATAL and its amakhosi are getting all the attention , but it is a province, not a country. I know our president hails from there , but all provinces deserve equal attention.

The province is highly rated because of its culture, but it can't get all the headlines. The government must treat all people equally and attend to issues that bind all citizens.

With due respect Mr President, Zulus are like everyone else so people must stop taking advantage because you are a Zulu. Nelson Mandela, Thabo Mbeki and Kgalema Motlanthe didn't pay much attention to amakhosi, not that they were not aware of them, but they had to prioritise. Honour all amakhosi equally as they too have cultures and people to serve.

Ayanda Ngcatshe, Tembisa
