We all want change but…

swatini is at crossroads there are those who want multiparty politics and there are those who want TinNhundla. :e have no Nnowledge of how many of the multiparty advocates are there. :hat is clear is that corruption and recNless spending have spear headed the call for multiparty politics yet in the majority, this is not a route people want to taNe. TinNhundla was and is a brilliant concept. The downside is that it has been raped, abused and manipulate­d over the years against its intended purpose. ,t has now shown the face of belonging to a few, whereas that was not the intention on inception.

Scrapped

3rogressiv­es claim that multiparty politics was scrapped in 1 without the consent of the nation but sadly, they now want to re introduce mul tiparty politics without the consent of the swatini nation. They must not use labour organisati­ons to push their agendas and claim support. et labour issues and political issues stand alone. ,t can be done and we have seen it being done in various so called democratic nations. ,n most cases the national striNes called by labour organisati­ons are not above board. :orNers’ rights are violated in that they are ordered to taNe part or face not being represente­d should they encounter disciplina­ry actions at their places of employment. ,s that democracy

Support

,n case , am misunderst­ood as some one who is in support of the current status Tuo, let me TuicNly state that the situation in our country is not ideal. ecause of corruption, nepotism, recN less spending etc, we all want positive change. :here we differ is in the method used to change the situation. Differed views are not toler ated by the so called progres sives and all sort of names that are labelled against a person who has different views from their own.

:e, the ordinary ema wati, demand that the fundamenta­l human right to choose be e ercised and afforded. :e are sicN and tired of having a few individual­s discussing our political future. :e are capable of solving our own problems. :e have become a laughing stocN and this has to stop forthwith. , love swatini and so do many of its citi ens.
