LOBAMBA – Member of Parliament (MP) Princess Phumelele says there is a lot of
biasness in the elections of legislators in as far as those with pending court
cases are concerned.
The Legislator submitted that some people who had aspirations to be in
Parliament were denied that opportunity owing to issues that were either pending
in court or were eventually decided.  She said the biasness was that while there
were some parliamentarians who had pending court cases; others were denied the
opportunity to be in Parliament because of pending court cases or other
incidents. “EBC should look into this matter and remove this biasness because
it is putting them in bad light. Everyone should be afforded a fair opportunity
to either participate in the elections or fulfil their desire to be a
parliamentarian,” she submitted.
