Munashe Ngonidzashe (born 29 August, 1969) is the heir apparent to the throne of Rwizikuru, having been named korona muchinda on 5 February, 1980.
Early life
Munashe was born to Kupakwashe Ngonidzashe and Rudorwashe Ngonidzashe in Port Fitzhubert, and was the eldest of three sons, and baptized into the Free Church of Bahia as Gideon Ngonidzashe.
He entered the Charles Fitzhubert School in 1974, and was described by his teachers as being an "excellent student," with one old teacher comparing him as "more willing to learn than his father." He continued to attend the Charles Fitzhubert School until 1978, when the royal family moved to the newly-completed Guta raMambo, and was sent to the newly established King Izibongo School.
Crown prince
Initial years
On 21 September, 1979, his grandfather, Izibongo Ngonidzashe died in a car accident, leaving his father, Kupakwashe Ngonidzashe as Mambo of Rwizikuru, and thus, he became heir to the Rwizikuran throne. In 1980, he was formally designated korona muchinda in Port Fitzhubert, and from that point started getting more education from his father to teach him on how to run Rwizikuru.
The death of his grandfather greatly affected him, with Munashe saying in 2008 that "the death of my grandfather affected me because suddenly, my father, who was my rock became tied down to his job." His academic performance declined, with Munashe "barely getting into grammar school."
However, by the time he started attending the Shungudzemwoyo Ncube Grammar School in 1981, his academic performance started to improve to his previous levels. In 1984, he made his first solo public appearance, as he gave the commencement speech at the Charles Fitzhubert School. In 1987, he finished yechitanhatu fomu, and graduated from the Shungudzemwoyo Ncube Grammar School, and enrolled at the University of Rwizikuru to major in political studies.
In 1991, he obtained a bachelor's degree from the University of Rwizikuru. However, he was ordered by his father to stop pursuing higher education, and instead focus on his role as crown prince.
