We thank the mentioned big organisations for embracing and consolidating our program alongside theirs. It took two days as on the first night our people held a strong picket at SAVOY Hotel where Mswati was housed and the second day was on the main day.The message has been sent wide and far and we urge our fellow democracy loving people to keep up the fight,\u201d said the SWALIMO President when speaking to this publication on Sunday afternoon.<\/p>\n<p>Reached for comments,Mandla Hlatswako,the Chairman of Letfu Sonkhe Institute for Strategic Thinking and Development said the costs of the King\u2019s United Kingdom(UK)trip could have purchased the much-needed drugs in hospitals.<\/p>\n<p>The senior member of the People\u2019s United Democratic Movement(PUDEMO) said it was surprising to see the King traveling to a country where the Monarchy surrendered Executive powers to the people through Parliament and further submitted itself to be at the service of the people.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor the King to go and witness a democracy in operation,it must be indictment upon him if you look at how he is ruling his own country, where he wants us as the society to not just be his subject but, to be his servants.The kind of expenditure that is involved in the King going to spend the time that he spent, just that one visit is all that we need to buy the drugs that will run Mbabane hospital possibly, for more than a month,\u201dsaid the Letfu Sonkhe Chairman.<\/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.
