October 1968 - Cyprian:Not So Much A King, More A Human

October 1968 - Cyprian:Not So Much A King, More A Human Being. Ma-JaliCyprian claimed she used to beat him up. She claimed his roving eye spoilt their marriage. One of the women who featured greatly in the life of the much-married king was Clementine Jali, known as Ma-Jali. Cyprian took her on as queen in 1955 but this proved an ill-fated match. In a divorce hearing in 1959 in Maritzburg the ruler of the mighty Zulu nation testified that Ma-Jali often beat him up and wasn't giving him the royal time he felt entitled to as a birthright. They later separated, and Ma-Jali blamed the break-up of the marriage on the roving royal eye. (Photograph by Drum Photographer BAHA)
