Qwabe The Qwabe descent group recites variants of one sequence built on a shared core - Mnguni kaYeyeye, Khondlo, and in most of them Malandela ngokulandel' izinkomo zamadoda. Quoted from the core line every member of the group actually carries: Mahlobo has Khondlo and Mnguni kaYeyeye but NOT Malandela, so citing Malandela would have been an edge with no basis in Mahlobo's own text. The historical descent claim and the recited text agree independently.
