uMfolozi Local Municipality (formerly Mbonambi Local Municipality) is a local municipality within the King Cetshwayo District Municipality of KwaZulu-Natal in South Africa. It is situated around the town of KwaMbonambi, to the north of Richard's Bay, stretching from the Indian Ocean to the edge of the Hluhluwe–Imfolozi Park.
It was originally named Mbonambi Local Municipality, renamed to Mfolozi Local Municipality on 21 May 2009,[5] and renamed again to uMfolozi Local Municipality on 12 February 2015.[6] The name "Mbonambi" refers to the Mbonambi Local Tribal Authority, which covers most of the municipal area.[7] The name Mfolozi/uMfolozi refers to the Umfolozi River which forms the northern boundary of the municipality.
The municipality was enlarged at the time of the South African municipal election, 2016 when part of the disbanded Ntambanana Local Municipality was merged into it.[8]
