Tchalla was already Black Panther when his father was King.Canonically there are four Cults in Wakanda - the Panther Cult, White Gorilla Cult, Lion Cult and Crocodile Cult. The Black Panther is the Leader of the Panther Cult NOT necessirally the Leader of Wakanda.Mbaku is chief of the Jabari Mountain Tribe who worship the Gorilla god(the terms Man-Ape and Gorilla-Man are used in comics for leaders of the Gorilla cult, but I doubt they will ever be used in the movies)In Wakanda History it was the leader of the Panther Tribe (the second Black Panther) who first discovered the Vibranium meteorite and became the first king of Wakanda and for that reason most Wakanda tribes follow the Panther Cult.The Jabari tribe however refused to worship the Panther god and instead withdrew to the mountains where they could continue to follow the Gorilla cult.The Lion Cult tried to win converts in Wakanda without much success and Sekhmet Her/Himself has manifested to challenged the Black Panther.The Crocodile Cult is all but forgotten, I dont know of any adherents.</blockquote>
