The public process to nominate members of a new Ingonyama Trust Board (ITB) has finally started after several months of delay.
The agriculture and land reform ministry, under which the ITB falls, has issued a public call for eight nominees to serve on the board, which administers nearly three million hectares of land under traditional control on behalf of the Zulu monarch.
An interim board, appointed by Land Reform Minister Thoko Didiza, has been responsible for running the entity since the sitting board’s term of office expired in September 2020.
