But not sure it will work out like that in reality. Nkhulus are not his original partners. If they run away from territorial males, Dreadlocks can do nothing. I suspect a takeover would happen once Nkhulu males feel they have strength in the coalition. 

There were 5 to 6 Birmingham Breakway Boys that roamed in Timbavati (Still likely there albeit in lesser numbers). Those males looked a bit stronger than Nkhulus and a few of them were well over 5 years of age. They knew the existence of two Skorro males but nothing happened. So, Nkhulus might push out dominant males or might take time, we don’t know.. If these boys encounter Talamatis, it would be easier. (If that happens, it would draw a parallel to 6 young Bila Shakas taking over Topi Pride).

They might move on or more likely make small inroads back into Gijima territory then all of a sudden all it might take is 1 of the young Nkhulus to decide to engage and if his brothers and DL are motivated by his aggressive behavior and follow it could end with the Gijima males being overthrown or killed. We all know how with lions things can change in an instant. Reply
