So, there are 4 Mbiris males around, right?

- Nsemani (Older Mbiri) male

- ZigZag and Shaka Mbiri

- 2 out of 3 Tintswalo males ( Mchile and Mandevu) are also Mbiris

Those are all Mbiris currently alive.

While the youngest Tintswalo disappeared and while it is reasonable to assume he is no longer alive, it was not confirmed by a body found afaik.

I don’t believe it’s a new sighting…I think maybe two months ago.

I gotta say, size aside, Zig Zag and BBoy Tinyo look like they could be twins! Both faces look almost identical, both have very dark manes that cross and stretch over their front arms and around their elbows, and their frames are very similar. Both legends if you ask me.

They share the same bloodline, ZigZags fathers are uncles to Tinyo.

Ironically, as our poster Tr1x24 mentioned, they share the same bloodline, old Skybed bloodline and Birmingham pride bloodline. Strong genes running though these two boys
