Women are capable of contributing towards building the country,\u201d the King said.<\/p>\n<p>Worth mentioning is that the election of women at Tinkhundla level had never reached 30 per cent despite the provision of the Constitution. This has resulted in the King appointing women to reach the percentage. Some women MPs had been elected regionally to reach the percentage. The King also suggested the recording of songs for every year\u2019s event.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/eswatini\">Eswatini<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Eswatini.
