According to the ''[[Basic Law of Rwizikuru]]'', which established the [[Monarchy of Rwizikuru|Rwizikuran monarchy]] in 1964, the line of succession was defined as consisting of "all male descendants of the [[Munonzwa Ngonidzashe|brother]] of [[Samhuri Ngonidzashe|the father of the nation]], excluding those disqualified, shall be eligible to inherit the throne of Rwizikuru." This meant that the line of succession in [[Rwizikuru]] is based off of {{wp|agnatic primogeniture}}.

Under the [[Constitution of Rwizikuru, 2020|2020 constitution]], section 1b of the first article of the first chapter states that "the Mambo of Rwizikuru can only issue decrees which concerns the [[House of Ngonidzashe]] and the line of succession to the Rwizikuran throne: he may not issue any decrees for any other affair," which allows the Mambo to theoretically alter the line of succession should he wish to alter the ''House of Ngonidzashe Act of 1965''.

Per the ''House of Ngondizashe Act of 1965'', in the event the entire House of Ngonidzashe dies, the [[House of Mkwananzi]] will assume the line of succession, as Munonzwa's brother, [[Mazomba Ngonidzashe]]'s descendants constitute the House of Mazomba.
Per the ''House of Ngondizashe Act of 1968'', in the event that there is no available heir in the House of Ngonidzashe under the rules of agnatic primogeniture, the next King will be elected by a "council of chiefs," although no council has ever been established.

Revision as of 03:02, 9 March 2023

The line of succession to the Rwizikuran throne is regulated by the reigning monarch of Rwizikuru, per the current Rwizikuran constitution, in conjunction with the House of Ngonidzashe Act of 1968.

Eligibility

According to the Basic Law of Rwizikuru, which established the Rwizikuran monarchy in 1968, the line of succession was defined as consisting of "all male descendants of the brother of the father of the nation, excluding those disqualified, shall be eligible to inherit the throne of Rwizikuru." This meant that the line of succession in Rwizikuru is based off of agnatic primogeniture.

Under the 2020 constitution, section 1b of the first article of the first chapter states that "the Mambo of Rwizikuru can only issue decrees which concerns the House of Ngonidzashe and the line of succession to the Rwizikuran throne: he may not issue any decrees for any other affair," which allows the Mambo to theoretically alter the line of succession should he wish to alter the House of Ngonidzashe Act of 1968.

Per the House of Ngondizashe Act of 1968, in the event that there is no available heir in the House of Ngonidzashe under the rules of agnatic primogeniture, the next King will be elected by a "council of chiefs," although no council has ever been established.

Notes

  1. Was disinherited in 2020 due to his "severe developmental delays."
  2. Muchazvireva and his descendants were stripped of their status by Kupakwashe Ngonidzashe in 1981 following a coup attempt against Kupakwashe: Chenjerai and his descendants were subsequently reinstated in 2002, though Dunzvi and his descendants have not been reinstated, as they continue to operate the Rwizikuran government-in-exile in Spálgleann, Caldia.
