Sigujana

Sigujana kaSenzangakhona (died 1816) was chief of the Zulu people in 1816. He was the
son of Senzangakhona kaJama and half-brother of Dingane kaSenzangakhona and Shaka
kaSenzangakhona. He succeeded his father c. 1816.[1] His mother was Bhibhi kaSompisi.
Shortly after he became chief, he was murdered by his half-brother, Shaka. It is disputed
whether Shaka had him assassinated,[1] or Shaka himself killed Sigujana by stabbing him.[2]
His birth date is unknown, but he died in 1816, shortly after he had become chief.
