Bulelani Colin Lobengula Khumalo, the 32 year old South Africa national, who was declared the crown prince and next in line as the Ndebele monarch.
Ayanda Khumalo, who identified himself as the Khumalo clan's secretary, declared Bulelani as the heir apparent, only a few weeks after Stanley Raphael Khumalo, declared himself the new King Mzilikazi II.
But the Lobengula family members released a statement saying Bulelani was not the heir apparent, describing the claim, which they said did not come from the royal family, as frivolous and aimed at misleading the Ndebele community.
King Lobengula descendants said they were not consulted about Bulelani's claim, making it a dubious and curious one.
There are unverified rumours that Bulelani is a member of the South African intelligence/ secret services.
