MBABANE – His Majesty King Mswati III has reported to Organ Troika that his country has been able to restore its peace.
“The Kingdom of Eswatini is pleased to be able to report to the Troika that we have since been able to restore peace on our own. Eswatini has been enjoying sustained peace and stability,” said His Majesty.
He further said he was also aware of some people who perpetrated violence who have found refuge in neighbouring countries. Whilst in those countries, they have continued to promote hate speech and seek to perpetuate the violence that they had been instrumental in masterminding.
The King said he was also alive to the fact that some of these known terrorists are receiving training in these countries.
“The Kingdom of Eswatini is in the middle of our electoral cycle. A voter registration exercise was conducted which returned a total number of over 584 000 registrations against a possible total figure of 650 000,”
“This represents 90 percent of eligible voters, a resounding success; a ringing endorsement of the general population’s support for the system of Government as has been repeatedly endorsed by emaSwati,” said His Majesty.
HMK: “When the Nation was called to Sibaya on the 11th July 2023, the Nation turned up in numbers. It is at Sibaya that we dissolved Parliament and announced the People’s Parliament that will be held after the national elections are completed. It is at that forum where emaSwati will dialogue and deliberate on key national issues.”
HMK: “The Kingdom of Eswatini is proud of our heritage as a peace-loving Nation. Our structures and systems are designed to protect and entrench that peace. We are, therefore, appreciative of the aims and ambitions of the Organ.”
