Ludvonga II (born c. 1855) was the Crown Prince of Swaziland, son of Mswati II of Swaziland.[1] His mother's clan was Khumalo. As a result of internal power struggles within the royal family, he was poisoned and died in 1872 before he could take the throne.[2] He was succeeded by his half-brother Mbandzeni, who was adopted by Ludvonga's mother.
