Famous People named Zitha

This is a family reference not official reference as many would really like it to be. My name is Vongani and I'm very proud of my Shangaan pedigree. Throughout our childhood, my father and all our uncles kept repeating that we come from a Zitha clan which overtime, or as people fled from one place to another, it was changed to Nkwinika (Nkwinika was a name of a family leader, just like Nkanyane who is part of the Zitha clan as well). As children we asked them where they came from and this was their story. The Zitha family in the Limpopo came from Gaza province in Mozambique. But before they settled in Mozambique, they came from a place called eMahlabathini in the province of Kwazulu/Natal. I met somebody from eMahlabathini and she confirmed that the Zitha clan is mainly concentrated there in eMahlabathini (Meaning, the Zitha clan is very common there). I have no other information about where they came from before they settled in Kwazulu/Natal but this is the little reference I have from my own family in the Limpopo province of South Africa. There's  a gathering of the Nkwinika/Zitha family and this information is confirmed everytime we meet for the family heritage. I would still welcome any information that could help us understand ourselves in this regard.
