King Sabata Dalindyebo District Municipality is located in the Eastern Cape Province (in what was formerly the Transkei) of South Africa and is one of seven municipalities which form the Oliver Tambo District Municipality. The municipal headquarters are located in Mthatha, the capital of the former Transkei Homeland.
The municipality is named after King Sabata Dalindyebo, a ruler of the Thembu
clan. He was arrested by the Transkei authorities in 1979 and later went
into exile to Zambia where he later died in 1986. His
remains were repatriated to South Africa in 1989.
