Africa-Press – Eswatini. <\/strong><\/span>Mlungisi Makhanya, the President of the People\u2019s United Democratic Movement(PUDEMO) says as an organization,they don\u2019t subscribe to violence but support peaceful means to resolve conflicts.<\/b><\/p>\n

But the PUDEMO President said as an organization,they have a \u2018principle\u2019 suggesting that any security officer who used violence against one of their members would have provoked the entire political organization.<\/p>\n

Speaking to the press current affairs programme on Tuesday, the PUDEMO President said they learnt a lesson from previous experiences of the late PUDEMO President Mario Masuku who was persecuted and isolated by the regime.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs the current generation of PUDEMO members, we took a decision that we must not allow this regime to target, persecute and isolate one member from the others.Sitsi-ke tsine akukho lizinyane lemvubu leladliwa tingwenya sasala sitiba sihlobile. Nakuke kwenteka le-regime yatsintsa munye noma labanye betfu, kufuna silingise tinyatsi,\u201d said the PUDEMO President.<\/p>\n

On another note,the PUDEMO President said as an organization, they declared 2018-2028 as a decade of liberation adding that they introduced various programs that sought to liberate Swazis. He encouraged Swazis to remain courageous as democracy would soon be achieved.<\/p>\n
