Africa-Press – Eswatini. <\/strong><\/span>Out with people who are against Tinkhundla!<\/b><\/p>\n

Former Senator Walter Bennett said everyone who was not for the Tinkhundla System of Government should stay away from jobs and opportunities offered by the Eswatini Government.<\/p>\n

The senator was speaking during the Royal Science and Technology Park (RSTP) Bill stakeholders submissions to the Senate Portfolio Committee yesterday. The former senator was referring to Clause 6 of the Bill, that details the composition of the RSTP Bill. He emphasised on the importance of vetting members of the RSTP Board before they were sworn into office. He then touched on all other government departments, including Parliament and Senate. Bennett said in the last two to three years, some people showed their true colours. He said some showed that they were against Monarchical Democracy and did everything in their power to sabotage government programmes. The former senator went on to state that these people were hired in crucial government bodies while working against the very same government and were even leaking crucial and private information.<\/p>\n

Bennett stated that the country did not need such rotten people in its departments. Coming to the RSTP Bill, Bennett said they could not afford to have people who were against the King in such institutions. He said those individuals may sabotage all government\u2019s efforts to improve the country in order to push a certain narrative that could be harmful and disadvantageous to the country. He stated that this should apply even to the CEO or any other employee despite their rank within the institution.<\/p>\n

Vetting<\/b><\/p>\n

\u201cThere should be serious vetting of people before they assume power,\u201d he said. He said if one hated the current system, he\/she should not be near any programmes of the system. He said proper vetting should be done to prevent backstabbers. \u201cThere shouldn\u2019t be anyone who works against the government who then enters the system. If it is found that there is someone who was doing that, even if it could be the CEO, they should all get out,\u201d he said. The former senator highlighted that the country was heading towards elections time. He said proper vetting needed to be emphasised upon even on that aspect. He said that should start from the registration process. Bennett said an entire vetting of the government system should be conducted and upon being found to be working against the system, that employee should be relieved of his\/her duties immediately.<\/p>\n

He mentioned that even with the new government that would be elected, to be part of it, people should be vetted and made to declare their political affiliations. Bennett said once aspiring legislators and government employees were found to be against the Tinkhundla System of Government, they should leave without getting their compensation. He said this would prevent having people who would compromise government and leak crucial information that may be used against it. Further, the former senator cited Clause 23 of the proposed law on penalties that relate to disclosing information to unauthorised persons among other offences, which do not exceed E50 000. Bennett said these fines were too little, given the fact that that some people shared information with their friends in relation to huge tenders and large sums of cash. He said the fine could be a drop in the ocean when compared to the money they would have gained from the mischievous act.<\/p>\n
