Vilakazi was elevated to a new role at the start of the season after Wayne Sandilands left to join Fadlu Davids at Tanzanian club Simba SC.
Robinson’s appointment marks the second change in AmaZulu’s technical staff recently, following Pilela Maposa’s return to work with coach Benni McCarthy at the Kenyan national team.
This announcement comes just a day after Usuthu faced a 2-0 defeat against his former team, Sundowns, in a Betway Premiership match at Lucas Moripe Stadium on Tuesday.
The recent loss saw Usuthu fall to seventh in the league standings, accumulating 30 points from 20 matches.
Managed by Arthur Zwane, the Durban-based club will face TS Galaxy next at King Zwelithini Stadium on Friday at 19:30.
