Sir,
I am writing to express my deep concern and outrage regarding the unjust
attempts to undermine and potentially dismantle The Luke Commission’s selfless
and invaluable work in Eswatini. It is truly disheartening to learn that
high-profile and official individuals, driven by selfish interests, are actively
working to collapse the financial stability of an organisation that has
dedicated itself tirelessly to serving and improving the lives of thousands of
emaSwati.The Luke Commission has been a beacon of hope for so many in Eswatini,
providing essential medical services and support to those in need without
seeking any personal gain.
Impact
The impact of their work is immeasurable, as countless lives have been
transformed and uplifted through their compassion and dedication. It is indeed
alarming that corruption is allowed to run rampant and unchecked, spreading like
a cancer and threatening the very fabric of society.
Actions
The fact that such actions are not declared a national disaster is a grave
oversight, and it is imperative that immediate and decisive action be taken to
address and eradicate this dangerous phenomenon. In times of unjust persecution
and adversity, it is important to remember the words of Nelson Mandela who spoke
out against corruption and injustice. As Nelson Mandela once said: “A nation
should not be judged by how it treats its highest citizens, but its lowest
ones.” It is clear that those seeking to harm The Luke Commission for their
own gain have lost sight of this fundamental principle. In times of turmoil and
uncertainty, it is also important to draw strength and inspiration from God of
courage, resilience and faith.
Faith
Just as David faced Goliath with unwavering faith in God’s protection, so too
shall The Luke Commission and its dedicated staff find solace and protection in
the divine grace of Jesus Christ. To the VanderWals and all the staff of The
Luke Commission, please know that you are not alone in this fight. We stand in
solidarity with you, offering our prayers, support and unwavering commitment to
the noble cause that you represent. Hands off The Luke Commission – may
justice prevail and may you continue to shine brightly as a beacon of hope and
healing for all.
With deepest respect and admiration,
