Africa-Press – Eswatini. <\/strong><\/span>While University students are struggling with scholarships as a result of Government’s failure to fund the education system, King Mswati has revealed that he uses public funds to \u2018fight\u2019 editor Zweli Martin Dlamini and this Swaziland News.<\/p>\n

The King revealed this through an affidavit filed by his lawyer Brian Kahn in another application where the Government and Mswati want the editor to be imprisoned for contempt of court.<\/p>\n

Mswati accused the editor and this publication of failing to comply with a court order issued on 08 February 2022 and by so doing, the King concluded that Dlamini was delaying the main application.<\/p>\n

The King through his legal representative further alleged that by employing three counsel, the editor and this publication clearly had access to considerable funds.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe respondents clearly have access to considerable funds( a conclusion drawn from their being in a position to employ three counsel for an uncomplicated interlocutory application). They are therefore financing frivolous litigation and forcing the applicant to spend public funds which could be put to far better use. Even with adverse costs orders granted against the respondents, the fact of the matter remains that the applicant will never be in a position of being refunded all the wasteful expenses which have accrued thus far\u201d, said the lawyer representing the King.<\/p>\n
