Mangosuthu Buthelezi, a veteran South African politician, Zulu prince and controversial figure during the liberation struggle against apartheid, has died, the presidency said. He was 95.

Buthelezi, who founded the Inkatha Freedom party (IFP), served two terms as minister of home affairs in the post-apartheid government after burying the hatchet with the governing African National Congress party in 1994.

The same age as Mandela when he died, some may see irony in that.

He was around for so long that he played Cetshwayo (his great grandfather, to whom he had a strong physical resemblance) in Zulu sixty years ago.
