uTata Mandela passed-on last Thursday at the age of 95.
The king, at a meeting with Mandela’s family on Sunday, called for unity.
A security official at the Qunu home on Sunday reportedly told the newspaper Mandla had removed his dogs from the house.
“Every family member must respect each other and support each other,” he reportedly said to those present.
“Everything must be done with love and peace. We have to support each other.”
The King stepped in to quell any disagreements among the Mandela family ahead of Nelson Mandela’s memorial service, according to The Times.
King Dalindyebu has since joined the DA.
uTata will be buried on Sunday 15 in Qunu, EC his birth place.
