The sixth wife of Swaziland's polygamous King Mswati III has run away, according to a report.
A royal guard revealed that Angela "LaGija" Dlamini was subjected to emotional and physical abuse by her husband for many years.
She left the palace to visit her parents in Hhohho, northern Swaziland and never returned.
LaGija is now the third wife to leave the royal household. According to a 2004 report in the Daily Sun, the first to flee was Delisa Magwaza 30, known as Inkhosikati LaMagwaza, who made her way to London via Cape Town.
She was followed by Putsoana Hwala 30, known as Inkhosikati LaHwala,who left three children behind .
Mswati’s 12th wife Nothando Dube, 22, known as Inkhosikati LaDube, was placed under house arrest at the home of the king’s mother in 2010 after an alleged affair with Swaziland’s justice minister Ndumiso Mamba.
Nothing seems to bother Mswati as he recently received a McDonnell Douglas DC-9 twin-engine jet for his 44th birthday despite a financial crisis in the country.
He is also expected to attend Jubilee Celebration of the UK’s Queen Elizabeth this month.
