Monwana males (4) 4,5y
Styx male (1) 4,5y
Kambula males (4) 6y
Nkuhuma 9y and khanya 7y
Manthimale males (2) 8y(guess)

Do u see one of them taking over or someone different?

My personal pick is are the Monwana males, as i c them surviving the next year to 5,5y. And if they have average confidence for lions in their age being 4 in a squad, I think they will attempt their take over around that time. As it seems to be unusual that a coalition of 4 that outnumbers their neighbors hesitates as much as kambulas. I think the probability of them being as passive and lacking drive like Kambulas seems low. The Kambulas i think have shown their temperamant and I dont see them changing their approach any time soon. The same goes for nkuhuma in my opinion. khanya cant count on nkuhumas full support in a takeover i think. Manthimales have their hands full with their territory i think and wont take on more responsibility. The same goes for the other duos of sabi sands in my opinion. Styx male is alone and i dont see him being a 1of1 lion like red road male, as the probability of a single lion reaching that level seems fairely low. So i c his best chances in teaming up with different nomads. If he manages to get a competent coalition partner though, I give him chances of taking over aswell. 

1 monwana
2 styx and coalition partner 
3 kambulas 
4 manthimales 
5 nkuhuma and khanya

thats how i would rank the likelihood of them taking over the nkuhuma pride.

Ages may be wrong. Please correct any mistakes u see.
Also add other potential lions or coalitions i may have missed.

Im lookig forward to hearing yall opinions

Bonus question.
Whos reign out of ndhzengas, PCMs and Gijimas do u c end first? Which coalition will have reigned the longest in the end?

Thanks in advance for reply:)

Monwanas would be the perfect match honestly. 
If the other 3 brothers come back to Sabi Sands and somehow join their younger brother with Nkuhumas, they could very likely make a name for themselves at the area. 4 young males have alot of potential to bring back stability in the north, even thought we sometimes forget it thanks to all instability and havoc 4 Kambulas managed to cause and prove that numbers dont matter if ur not strong or confident enough to stand your ground.

I would like alot if all 6 Monwanas managed to rejoin and take Nks, but thats highly unlikely. Regardless of that 4 could be a really good number to protect the area from all those confident duos around. Reply
