EX-MPS EXCITED ABOUT DIALOGUE

LOBAMBA – Former Members of Parliament (MPs) have sung His Majesty King Mswati III’s praises for pledging Sibaya dialogue after the general elections.

The head of State assured the nation that there would be a dialogue shortly after the general elections, where emaSwati would get the chance to voice out issues of concern at the cattle byre at Ludzidzini, as is the norm in the Kingdom of Eswatini. Former Ndzingeni MP Lutfo Dlamini said one of his highlights of the King’s speech was on the issue of dialogue. The former legislator highlighted that the opportunity for dialoguing was what the country needed at the moment to reflect on where it was coming from and the direction it desired to take going forward. “The King also highlighted that we need to put the country first before anything and that is of utmost importance. It will help no one to destroy the very things that we will need after the dialogue, so we ought to put our differences aside and build from here,” he said.

Former Siphocosini Inkhundla MP Mduduzi Matsebula highlighted that it was important for the nation to harness its collective intelligence through dialoguing as the King had announced.
“This is the right time for us to rebuild our country politically, economically and socially. It is of significance for the country to remember where we come from and we ought to put our differences aside and move forward collectively,” he said. Former Shiselweni II MP Strydom Mpanza echoed the King on the issue of electing people who have a First World mentality, so as to land the Kingdom of Eswatini in that class. “We need a government that will carry the country forward and that entails electing people with a vision to bring exceptional development. My other prayer is that every group in society be well represented, so that there is balance in authority as the King wished,” he said.
