Govt, ILO clash over kuhlehla custom
ILO must not interfere with African cultural practices.
JOHN SARANJE
Kuhlehla is forced labour, we even give money to chiefs for them kutsi bayolima when tsine site ngisho yekutilimela. Kutsi noma ngabe imiphakatsi seyivunile kute ngisho ligogogo lelimikiswa emadladleni nakulabeswele, instead they feed their animals. BHEBHINKHOMO ESBAYENI

How is that of their concern? DUBE JANET
That nonsense must stop. MFUNDISI LUKHELE
Kuhlehla is our custom, but troubled is that it is now being forced on us, and we are fined once we don’t do it. This was meant for chiefs to live in harmony with their subjects.

ILO must back off, abayati inchubo yetfu. Kuhlehla kulisiko letfu. SISONKHE SIYETHEMBA
Kuhlehla is forced labour. LAGA-BOY MNTUNGWA
Lo ILO uhlangana njani, kuphi, ngani nemihambo nemasiko elive? DICKSON MKHOSHOSHO THRING
In this country things are done by force in the name of culture, including underpaying people. NOMSA GASOLO
ILO must look into issues of workers and not the country. So we, as emaSwati, must only adhere to ILO on matters that are within work perimeters, not out of the work perimeters; ngeke sive nga ILO kutsi senteni.
LWETHU SITHOLE
Maybe we should all thank God for the culture because it is absolutely blessed and good cultural practice to render services once a year.
ROSEMARY SAMAGAIO
It seems like ILO will end up telling us that we should pay our children for making them do chores around the house.
WENZO NKABINDE
ILO must stop interfering etindzabeni tekuhlehla kwemaSwati. CEBI MANGO
ILO should understand that as Africans we have our own customs that make us Africans, so they should not observe it as forced labour because nobody forces anyone do it willingly. MBUSO SAMKETI for kuhlehla; you
We as emaSwati are not forced to part take in royal duties, but we do it with love and voluntarily. ANELE SIKHONDZE
MPs must continue being quiet, which is what they are famous for. EmaSwati can now see when they are being fooled. MATHOKOZA SAMKETIE

MPs asenime tihlobo tetfu; just because the incarcerated MPs will be released soon, suddenly seninabo operation what what.
