Jabarkan Kontroversi penamaan dari Stadion Moses Mabhida

On February 1 2006, KwaZulu-Natal Premier S'bu Ndebele was quoted as saying that since the stadium will only be finished in 2009, it was not yet important to decide upon a name. He said: "For now let us refer to it as a new 2010 stadium. The main issue is that KwaZulu-Natal is building a new stadium. The name can be anything. It can be Christmas Tree". eThekwini mayor Obed Mlaba suggested that the stadium may be named Moses Mabhida Stadium.

The Stadium was originally to be named after King Senzangakhona, the father of the Great King Shaka Zulu. The name has since been changed to Moses Mabidha who is largely unknown to the KwaZulu-Natal Region. This name change has come amongst speculation by the Durban public that the IFP's presence and KwaZulu-Natal Historic Figures are being erased from History through various name changes to make way for ANC political and revolutionary figures.
