Early life

Paul Ngonidzashe was born on 31 August, 2018 to Munashe Ngonidzashe and Ditsheho Ngonidzashe, at 09:06, as their second child, after his older brother, Malcolm Ngonidzashe. With his birth, he displaced his uncle Honore Ngonidzashe in the line of succession from 3rd to 4th in the line of succession. The announcement of his birth was made over RIS radio and television at noon, with his name being announced at that time.

On 7 September, 2018, he was baptized into the United Amended Church at the Saint Edward's Cathedral, as Paul Ngonidzashe. Paul would become second in line to the Rwizikuran throne on 21 February, 2019, upon the death of his grandfather, Izibongo Ngonidzashe, and the accession of his father.

On 14 October, 2020, Paul Ngonidzashe became the Crown Prince, after his elder brother was disinherited due to a severe developmental delay, making him the heir apparent to the Rwizikuran throne.
