I'm getting sick and tired of this 'decolonised' bulldust. Fair enough, a new anthem would be a good idea, but certainly not 'Nkosi Sikelele'. Why? Well for a start it was composed by a Xhosa clergyman, and when I last looked, all the Nguni tribes - of which the Xhosa are a part - were colonisers of this country themselves, having apparently come down from the Rift Valley in what is now the Kenya region. They displaced the original inhabitants of the South African area, namely the Khoikhoi and San peoples. It is therefore itself a 'colonial' song by the normal interpretation of the word, not the politicised anti-white one that I am disturbed to hear a man of the cloth utilising.

I therefore would suggest that a new anthem be created that is composed by some Khoisan musicians and translated into the 11 official languages, of which there's isn't one (or two).
