Today the KwaZulu-Natal police reported that The Nazareth Baptist Church eBuhleni group will have to wait its turn to go up the Nhlangakazi Mountain.

Colonel Jay Naicker  said they advise the eBuhleni group not to go to the mountain in order to avoid conflict.

On January 2, the church's eKuphakameni faction climbed Nhlangakazi mountain in Inanda for a 15-day prayer session as part of its annual pilgrimage.

KwaZulu-Natal police escorted churchgoers  up the mountain.

Lieutenant-Colonel Vincent Mdunge said security would be provided for the entire event when they go up the mountain again.
