Dr. Ntsizakalo Ngalo has resigned as Amampondo Kingdom spokesman and administrative officer. This was confirmed by Dr. Ngalo in a statement released on Sunday, 13 August 2023. Dr. Ngalo who is also a founder of Dr Ntsizakalo Ngalo Foundation has left the office, citing that he has other commitments.
“As you all know that I am the spokesperson for Amampondo Kingdom, that is no longer the case as I am taking the decision to step down” says Dr. Ntsizakalo Ngalo.
Dr. Ngalo is known for standing firm in convincing the Mpondo nation that the Mpondo kingship is in the house of Nobandla, the mother of the late Zanozuko Sigcau. In his statements, he took time to thank the queen, her worship Nobandla for trusting him with the role of a spokesperson.
It is not unusual for Dr Ngalo to step down in this very same role as he once resigned during the time of King Zanozuko, who passed on 31 May 2022.
I have not been recalled to step down but this is the decision I have taken for myself to spend some time in other endeavors as we all know that Dr Ntsizakalo Ngalo Foundation has a duty to assist people, those who love me and those who hate me. – Emphasized Dr. Ngalo
Amampondo are still squabbling on who is the real successor after the passing of King Zanozuko, while others are adamant that Zanozuko was not the legitimate king. As it stands some recognize, Dumelani Sigcau, while others recognize Queen Nobandla. On the other side there are those who believe the Kingship is at Qawukeni Great place.
