King Shaka was born out of marriage but from the royal family of the Qwabe clan which claimed the same ancestry with the Zulu nation.
This simply means King Shaka had royal blood in both parents unlike the charlatan who's name is Simakade who's carrying the blood of a commoner and the royal blood.
What was the controversy about the pregnancy of princess Nandi who gave birth at King Shaka?
King Senzangakhona ka Jama impregnated princess Nandi out of wedlock.
When Nandi first informed the King of her pregnancy, village elders rejected her claims, arguing that she might have been bitten by Shaka beetle, an insect that when it bite you, your stomach gets swollen.
Princess Nandi named the child Shaka after the beetle mocking the village elders.
King Senzangakhona ka Jama initially denied paternity of Shaka but eventually married Nandi unlike Simakade's mother who was married to another man and never got married with the late Zulu King Goodwill Zwelithini.
Princess was also in a forbidden inter-clan marriage but She was then placed at the status of a lowly third wife.
This simply means it is mischievous and misleading to compare King Shaka with the current charlatan Simakade. Shaka had a birthright because he met all the requirements except that his birth was a shame because he was born out of wedlock and inter-clan marriage.
