Rhodes never laid his hands on King Lobengula Khumalo.

Mr. Ndlovu you are being advised not to be a commercial historian.

The history of King Lobengula Khumalo, and the Ndebele people has been deliberately distorted by the British for a number of reasons including to denagrate a black person.

The mention of Princess Catherine Radziwill, this was a dubious Polish woman resident in St. Petersburg. She met Rhodes in London at a dinner in 1896 long after King Lobengula Khumalo had left.

Dr. Leander Star Jameson left for South Africa in 1894. Some of your facts are upside down. Please Mr. Ndlovu do a bit of more research on this subject.

Start from the Kings Palace in Bulawayo and follow his retreat reuite up to the Zambezi river. You will find authentic information.
