Mangosuthu Buthelezi: Zulu chief who divided South Africa

Zulu chief Mangosuthu Buthelezi has died at the age of 95.

The founder of the Zulu Inkatha party, Chief Buthelezi disagreed with the ANC's tactics of armed action and trod a moderate path as leader of an ethnic-Zulu homeland.

He was opposed to international sanctions on South Africa, arguing that they would only harm the country's black majority.
