Is this not more highlighting Khanyas abnormal bond with Dzwihala more than a reason why the partnership with NK may yet fail. There were also other factors that come into play with that too, Dzwihala was still hanging with his sisters by the time Khanya left, it’s not like one of the brothers was challenging for territory straight away while the other was just wandering around the North. 

We don’t know how much ‘thinking’ lions go through before making their moves but I do believe Khanya sensed a better situation with the 4 Nkuhuma boys and Mohawk so tried to pursue that, unfortunately it didn’t work. So I think both the brothers were very independent and that showed by them always being separated. As long as NK continues to follow Khanya, and it seems like he has been for consecutive months, then this new partnership has a real good chance at being permanent. That is also dependant on how they react to dominant males anyways, like u mentioned. Reply
