Children of Swaziland
Howard “Mhlatsi” Dlamini dressed as a traditional Swazi, wearing “emahiya”, the wraparound cloth, and “emajobo”, the deerskin cover front and back. He carries a “sakila” or knobkerrie stick and wears a single feather of the “ligwalagwala” bird, denoting links with the Swazi Royal family, in his hair. He is flanked by Msindazwe, his brother's son and Njabulo, his small son, at home in Sidvwashini township, Mbabane.
