It is not surprising that Mandlakazi would be supporting Cetshwayo against his brother Mbuyazi on his fight for the throne as prince Cetshwayo, himself, grew up in kwaMandlakazi and was very close to his cousin prince Zibhebhu the son of Maphitha.

Cetshwayo was guaranteed support from this house yaseKhohlwa. Prince Zibhebhu, who headed the Mandlakazi house after prince Maphitha also proved to be a strong military force and a war tactician himself, in Mandlakazi they also gave him praises almost similar to that of Shaka, that of being the Hitman, they called him Magasa. Magasa was one of the key generals on which King Cetshwayo relied as Britain was knocking on Zululand territory borders. He was very instrumental in the Sandlwana war.

After the victory of uZulu against Britain in eSandlwane, the British armies came and invaded uLundi palace, burning it down and eventually arrested the king. This left the Zulu kingdom totally unstable. The British empire then negotiated land governance with abaMnumzane that were put in place by the king to look after the land, telling them that they can continue looking after the land but not for the king anymore but for the British empire.

When these agreement were reached the British Empire then brought its Magistrate offices to iVuna, closer to the Gqikazi royal palace. This land became a territory of the Zulu nation after Zwide was defeated by king Shaka in Nongoma is now famously known as iHlalankosi the royal city and it prides itself for the being home of six of the seven palaces of the mighty Zulu Kingdom. The battles that resulted in the fall of the Zulu kingdom took place here involving uSuthu, uMandlakazi, uNgenetsheni, the Boers and steered by the British Empire, leaving Nongoma with the three current Zulu Traditional Authorities, uSuthu, uMandlakazi and Matheni.
