UMzantsi Afrika ulungiselela uLwesine onesiphithiphithi njengoko iNkonzo yeMozulu yoMzantsi Afrika ikhupha izilumkiso ezininzi zemozulu embi, imvula ezinkulu kunye neendudumo.
Iindawo zeMpuma Koloni kunye neKwaZulu-Natal ziphantsi kwesilumkiso senqanaba lesi-4, esona silumkiso siphezulu kwiindudumo ezinzima.
Le mimandla inokubona izantyalantyala zemvula, izantyalantyala ezizakuchaphazela iindlela ezisezantsi kunye neebhulorho, imimoya ebhudla ngamandla kunye nesichotho esikhulu.
Imimandla esembindini, kuquka iindawo ezingqonge i-Aliwal North, iCradock kunye neendawo ezithile zase Free State, ziphantsi kwenqanaba lesi-2 lesilumkiso malunga neendudumo ezinokukhokelela kwizikhukhula zasekuhlaleni, isichotho kunye nemimoya enamandla.
Kunxweme olusemazantsi, inqanaba loku-1 lengcebiso lilumkisa ngemimoya eyonakalisayo enokuthi ibeke umngcipheko kwiinqanawa elwandle.
Amathuba emvula abonisa ukuba umsebenzi uya kwanda kangakanani na. ILimpopo, iMpumalanga kunye nenxalenye yeMpuma Free State zijongene namathuba angama-80% eendudumo.
IKwaZulu-Natal, umbindi weMpuma Koloni kunye nenxalenye yoMntla Koloni nombindi Free State banamathuba angama-60% emvula.
Imimandla yangaphakathi eNtshona Koloni kuqikelelwa ukuba iza kubona amathuba angama-30% emvula, ngelixa intshona ekude, kuquka ummandla ongqonge iSpringbok neVredendal, kulindeleke ukuba ihlale yomile.
Ngemozulu embi ekulindeleke ukuba iphazamise ukuhamba kunye nomsebenzi wemihla ngemihla, iNkonzo yeMozulu ikhuthaza abahlali kwiindawo ezichaphazelekayo ukuba bahlale bephaphile, bagweme ukuwela iindlela ezikhukulayo kunye nokubeka iliso kuhlaziyo yonke imini.
