Africa-Press – Eswatini. The people of Eswatini are twisting and turning piteously in subdued pain. There is an unvoiced gnashing of teeth and a bitter forbearance, denuded, ridiculed and swindled on all fronts, by an elaborated presence of nationhood to its detriment for far too long. The nation’s gifted youth has been forced to scavenge around the fringes of morality and legality.
This is because they find themselves in a system that excludes them. There is an unnamed fear and semi-uncertain confusion in the country. Each time I sit back to ruminate on where Eswatini is and where she is supposed to be, my heart becomes unsteady and dejected.
Wondering
I am left wondering what has really gone wrong with this once beautiful and lovely country. At times the way we conduct ourselves towards each other is unbecoming, wicked and insensible. Nobody needs to tell us that the country is sick. Then you ask; where are the beautiful and altruistic ideas, for which emaSwati were once known for?
Why have we allowed ourselves to be used by the devil and his agents to perpetrate evil against our own people? Where have all leaders gone? Yes some of them are dead, but can’t we produce them in some, if not, all of us? Rather, what we have today are mainly opportunists who have no place in public service.
Hope
Where are all the men and women of good conscience, whose presence inspired hope to others? They walked the entire political spectra of this country, spreading the good news of national unity without fear or shame. Unfortunately, their successors have squandered our common patrimony and left all of us desolate and disheartened. Those who govern us today, do so with little care or love.
God please cleanse our nation of the evil men and women who have vowed to destroy it and our people. Things are really getting out of hand and Eswatini cannot continue the way it is going. We need to stand up and redeem the country from the forces of darkness. This is the time for pragmatic steps to be taken to reposition the kingdom and make it great again.
It is a fact and on record that emaSwati have remained sidelined in development initiatives. The nation has lived with this reality for very long now. The country lacks relevance in the setting of impartial institutions and major drivers of our economic environment. It is mocked by the wretched profile of its most visible political actors. hichever way you choose to look at it, there is a cause for the misgivings about public administration in Eswatini.
