The Unconventional Rise to Royalty
Born in the late 18th century into the Langeni clan, Nandi's life took an unconventional turn from the very beginning. Despite being born out of wedlock, her lineage traced back to royalty, with her father being Chief Senzangakhona of the Zulu Kingdom. As a single mother raising her son Shaka, Nandi faced societal pressures and challenges, yet she remained undaunted in her pursuit of greatness.
