  • Sekhukhune Ier, né à Matsebe en 1814 et mort le 13 août 1882, est le chef suprême (« roi ») des Pedi, un peuple proche des Sotho, installé depuis le début du XVIIIe siècle au Transvaal, dans une région située dans les actuelles provinces du Limpopo et du nord du Mpumalanga, entre la rivière Vaal et le fleuve Limpopo. Il règne du 21 septembre 1861 jusqu'à son assassinat, le 13 août 1882, perpétré par son rival et demi-frère, . En tant que dirigeant, il doit faire face à l'avancée du peuplement boer, à la république sud-africaine, à l'Empire britannique et aux changements sociaux considérables amenés par les missionnaires chrétiens. Sekhukhune mène deux guerres importantes. La première, qu'il gagne, se déroule en 1876, et l'oppose à la République du Transvaal et ses alliés Swazi. La seconde, contre les Britanniques et les Swazi, en 1879, est perdue. Ces deux guerres sont appelées « guerres de Sekhukhune ». Sekhukhune, vaincu, est emprisonné à Pretoria jusqu'en 1881. Après son retour en son royaume, il est mortellement poignardé en 1882, à Manoge par son demi-frère et adversaire, Mampuru II. (fr)

As the Pedi paramount leader he was faced with political challenges from boer settlers, the independent South African Republic (Dutch: Zuid-Afrikaansche Republiek), the British Empire, and considerable social change caused by Christian missionaries. Sekhukhune was the son of Sekwati I, and succeeded him upon his death in 20 September 1861 after forcibly taking the throne from his half-brother and the heir apparent Mampuru II. His other known siblings were; Legolwana, Johannes Dinkwanyane, and Kgoloko. Sekhukhune married Legoadi IV in 1862, and lived at a mountain, now known as Thaba Leolo or Leolo Mountains which he fortified. To strengthen his kingdom and to guard against European colonisation, he had his young subjects work in white mines and on farms so that their salaries could be used to buy guns from the Portuguese in Delagoa Bay, as well as livestock. Sekhukhune fought two notable wars. The first war was successfully fought in 1876, against the ZAR and their Swazi allies. The second war, against the British and Swazi in 1879 in what became known as the Sekhukhune Wars, was less successful. Sekhukhune was detained in Pretoria until 1881. After a return to his kingdom, he was fatally stabbed by an assassin in 1882, at Manoge. The assassins are presumed to have been sent by his brother and competitor, Mampuru II. (en)
