In the preview, Nandi, portrayed by Mbatha, seems to be struggling with labour complications and is gasping for air.

The next scene cuts to Senzangakhona (portrayed by Senzo Radebe), Shaka Zulu's father, questioning whether the child Nandi is carrying is his.

It then cuts to a scene where Mkabayi (portrayed by Dawn Thandeka King), who is the acting regent, reminds her brother that the prophecy of the Sanusi, which foretold of a great Zulu warrior who would unite the Zulu into one nation, may be talking about any man.

However, Senzangakhona is not having it and is convinced that the prophecy speaks about him.

The final scene of the preview shows Nandi in labour, giving birth to the child that will be known as Shaka, the historical king of the Zulu.

Shaka iLembe is only a few episodes into its first season and already has the country abuzz.
