METHULA: The Government driver who demolished homes at kaMethula is now wanted by the Swaziland International Solidarity Forces(SISF).

Speaking to this Swaziland News, the Commander of the Solidarity Forces urged residents of the area to assist them with the picture of the driver who was driving the TLB that was destroying people’s homes at KaMethula.

The Commander said in situation of injustice like this one, they always identify those at the forefront and target them to send a message to others who might think of assisting the regime to oppress the people.

“We want to applaud the youth of kaMethula for burning the TLB but now we are appealing to the residents to assist us with the identity of the driver. We want to discourage this tendency of Government employees of participating in acts of injustice against the people and then nothing happens to them”, said the Commander.

On another note, this publication reported earlier on Wednesday quoting Derrick Masuku, the Methula Member of Parliament (MP) who said it was very hard to blame the residents who burned the TLB that destroyed their homes because they were angry.

Speaking to this Swaziland News on Wednesday after being asked to comment on the tensions escalating within his Constituency early this morning, the MP said he was still assessing the situation to ascertain the number of people who may need humanitarian assistance.

“I don’t understand why the residents’ homes are being destroyed before engaging them.  This is a very unfortunate situation and it’s hard even to blame them for burning the TLB that was destroying their homes because they were angry. I am still assessing the situation to determine the number of people in need of humanitarian assistance”, said the MP.

It has been disclosed that police rushed to the Methula Constituency after being informed that the residents were burning down the TLB, believed to be owned by Mswati’s government.

A source close to the matter said young people who allegedly burned the TLB are on the Mountains in fear of the police who are looking for them.

The residents are accused of constructing their homes on a farm, more Swazisy across the country were evicted by Mswati, who then allocated the land to his business allies.

Police Spokesperson Phindile Vilakati had not responded at the time of compiling this report.

On another note, Amnesty International, a human rights organization, released a series of reports condemning the eviction of Swazis from their land.
