Civil servants fear Barnabas

MBABANE-The comeback of Sibusiso Barnabas Dlamini as a PM has been met with mixed feelings.

Among the scared and worried are civil servants as they dealt with him before.

NAPSAWU Secretary General Vincent Dlamini said they had seen the new PM before and they know his style so there was nothing new.

He said what made them worried and at the same time scared was that during his tenure the country was plunged into political crisis.

He said if he was the same man who made the November 28 statement then everyone should be scared. "We all know this man and his harsh ways unless he has repented we will always be worried," he said.

He said since he had not heard him talking about repentance, they were expecting to go back to the 2000-2003 era of iron rule.

He said as civil servants they were ready to deal with whatever he would bring along.

The new prime minister was announced last week Thursday at the cattle byre after a lot of speculation over who the candidate would be as some had thought even former PM Themba Dlamini could bounce back.

‘...contracts or not, govt service delivery won’t change’

MBABANE-"Two year contract or not, government service delivery to the people will be the same."

This was said by the Secretary General of the National Public Service and Allied Workers Union’s (NAPSAWU) Vincent Dlamini on the news that ministers would now be given a two year contract.

The new Prime Minister Barnabas Dlamini told the king that the new cabinet would be made to sign contracts then be evaluated.

He also told the king a minister who has failed might be sent packing. Dlamini (Vincent) said the two years would not make any difference because the problem was not the time frame.

"The problem is with the calibre of people appointed into cabinet, whether you give them two years or months even 20 years it will be the same," he said.

He said the ministers could be given a lifetime to do their job but they would still fail to deliver. He went on to say what was being done in the country was changing the container but the contents were the same. He further said the problem was also with the system of governance used in the country so things would remain the same.

He illustrated that principal secretaries were now on contract and hired according to constitution but the working system was the same.
