Zulu King Misuzulu KaZwelithini is opening the KwaZulu-Natal legislature on Thursday at Woodburn Stadium in Pietermaritzburg.
The king had previously raised concerns about the stadium being able to host the two-day event safely — the opening of the provincial legislature and state of the province address — instead of the Royal Showgrounds, also in Pietermaritzburg.
Premier Thami Ntuli is expected to deliver the state of the province address on Friday.
