Sekhukhune or Matsebe Sekhukhune, (1814–1882), the son of King Sekwati, was king of the Pedi people in Sekhukhuneland , in the present day Limpopo Province of South Africa.

Early life

He became king upon his father's death in September 1861, married Legoadi IV in 1862 and lived at a mountain, now known as Thaba Ya Leolo,[2] which he fortified.

Politics, wars and death

As the Bapedi paramount leader he was faced with political challenges from the Boer, the independent South African Republic (ZAR) and the British Empire, with considerable social change caused by Christian missionaries.[1]

He fought two wars: first successfully in 1876 against the ZAR and their Swazi allies, then unsuccessfully against the British and Swazi in 1879 during the Sekukuni Wars.[1][3]

Sekhukhune was held until 1881 in Pretoria. He returned to the Pedi Kingdom, but in 1882 he was stabbed to death by assassins sent by his brother and leadership rival, Mampuru.[4][5]
