Speaking at the Pietermaritzburg High Court, Mthunzi revealed that his grandfather, Chief Luthuli worked most of his adult life for the ANC, but he never received a single cent from the ANC. “In the time when other fathers and grandfathers were working to look after their families, our family was suffering.

The grandson said, he wishes to uncover the truth. “The history records of this country say that Chief Luthuli was either killed by a train or he died under mysterious circumstances. Those statements are not true,” he said. “Pursuing the truth will be done for the benefit of the family, also for the benefit of South Africa. “
