AS WE WAIT IN ANTICIPATION
Sir,
Speaking my views publicly has made me engage in numerous discussions on some of the matters I touch upon. I found myself having to respond to why I still believe in a Parliament that has failed the people so many times. I am an optimistic person and never want to judge without concrete evidence. It is for this reason that I believe and hope that the current crop of parliamentarians will do better than their predecessors. It must be said to Cabinet that we are going to judge them on what they do to sort the issues that are currently affecting the country.
Decide
They must decide whether they care for the people of this kingdom or not. It is now or never. Whether go or bad, they should give the nation direction on the next course of action to normalise the situation in the country, because we cannot go on like this.
Meanwhile, a people centred budget is what we have always been crying for. The people are not going to enjoy driving on state of the art roads when they are hungry and therefore it is paramount that the needs of the people be taken care of first.
Afford
The people will not enjoy viewing nice hotels they cannot afford to visit while they are sick. What is happening in the country needs to be sorted with immediate effect, otherwise we will continuously wake up to news of people killing each other because of ‘tingoma temajaha’. The same goes for the Members of Parliament who have a huge say in how the country should be governed. They know the needs of people in communities and they have to address them when debating in the august House. EmaSwati are tired of the lips service and action that does not augur well with their needs.
