Dudu Mntowaziwayo Ndlovu

Dudu Mntowaziwayo Ndlovu (Dudu Zulu) (25 December 1957 - 4 May 1992) was Johnny Clegg's Zulu dancing partner for many years, dancing in the streets of Soweto and Jeppe and some of the biggest stages on the planet.

Dudu died from 9 bullets in the back from an AK47 on a dusty track near Greytown in KwaZuluNatal where he lived. The general feeling there was that because he had become so well known he would be able to calm things down or even bring a resolution to the 7 year taxi war. Johnny Clegg dedicated the music video of "The Crossing (Osiyeza)" to him.
