The situation in Weenen, under the reign of King Siphiwe Mvelase, is dire, due to the increase in the practice of livestock theft.
This situation is said to have led to threats between different villages under one king. It is a country found out that King Mvelase leads three villages namely Nomoya, Mashuka and Nkaseni.
It turns out that the theft of livestock in these villages is so bad that some are even threatening that if it continues like this, there will be bloodshed. It turns out that many thieves are hiding in the village of Manqomfini, which is adjacent to the king’s tribe.
It is a country spoke to someone close to the king’s council but who asked not to be named. He said that they are very worried about the theft of livestock that eats badly in this area.
He said that they did not do anything to stop this gathering but to no avail, he said that they do not know now what can be done to ensure that this practice ends.
”What is starting to scare us the most is that we feel that if this thing continues, it will end up causing unnecessary bloodshed. It would be a very painful thing to see bloodshed just because of the theft of livestock, which was not fair,” he said.
He pointed out that what is the problem is that the people of Manqomfini, they hide themselves in these three valleys of the king, they go in and out at night and steal livestock.
”Even the king is starting to get disgusted by this thing that seems to be going on in this place. What is clear is that all these people who are doing this thing are doing it on purpose and they are not afraid of anyone because the way they are doing it proves that they are determined that even if it ends up bloodshed, they will not have a problem with that,” he said.
Someone who spoke toOf this country A member of the community complained that people who steal livestock are known but no one is willing to understand them, he said he does not know why.
”Brother, people are known to steal livestock, even a small child can go and point them out. The truth is that we are now tired of what is going on in this area,” said a member of the community.
It continues, saying that they fear that a big war will eventually break out if no one tries to fix this situation.
What has caused a lot of noise is the fining of those accused of stealing 39 cows each. This, according to someone close to the royal family, seems to end up creating a big conflict. It is said that a meeting was called in which the leadership of the community was present but the king was not present, and this sentence came out. It is a country tried several times to contact the suspects of livestock theft who were said to have been fined but the numbers said to be their mobile phones were not coming through.
”The truth is that there are so many of these cows that are being talked about that they should be fined even if it is suspected that it is him without any evidence. I don’t believe that these accused people will just keep quiet and fold their hands when they finish removing these cows,” he said.
