Zulu maidens and regiments, high-profile dignitaries and royals will pay their final respects at the KwaKhethomthandayo Royal Palace in KwaNongoma before the departed monarch is planted through the night. 
His body will arrive from the mortuary before sunset, met by heavy rains - a sign of good fortune.  
King Zwelithini died last week Friday in Durban, at the age of 72, after a month’s treatment in hospital for diabetes-related illness.
