The same wiki article also contains "uMzantsi Afrika" as its title,
with the lowercase "u" despite it's in the beginning of a sentence.
At the same time, CLDR says "eMzantsi Afrika":

OK, let's leave it as it has been committed.  I'm not telling this
is wrong, I'm telling that with the variety of versions I don't know
which is correct and it may be changed in future, for example if
a native speaker requests.

Yes, it looks a bit difficult.

The CLDR value from the survey tool
http://st.unicode.org/cldr-apps/v#/xh/T_Africa/ is probably also
preliminary because there is no
http://www.unicode.org/repos/cldr/trunk/common/main/xh.xml yet.

I believe  wiki page in locale language is more trusty (specific to locale information like Country name specific to that country, week, months for that locale etc  ) then other sources. 
Like locale page for indian language.

I agree with Zack.
