In my line of duty as a journalist I have seen powerful detectives like the late Senior Superintendent Jomo Mavuso and Deputy Commissioner Sam Mthembu who were known for killing people falling.

As a result,I will not get tired of reminding Senior Superintendent Clement Sihlongonyane who persecutes and kills civilians that he will eventually fall.

Sticks Nkambule is now wanted by the police for alleged contempt of court charges, his crime was to lead a national shutdown calling for democracy and the release of incarcerated pro-democracy Members of Parliament(MPs) Bacede Mabuza and Mthandeni Dube. 

I want to assure Sihlongonyane that the demand for democracy and the release of the MPs is not about Sticks but the entire Swazi Nation.

We will continue to express our support for Sticks Nkambule, the Public Transport Union Secretary General who is being persecuted by the State.

We can assure Sihlongonyane that some of us will not only express the support by merely writing articles but will explore other means to ensure that any threat directed to Nkambule is mitigated. 

We are citizens of the country before we are journalists and we have a huge interest on issues of democracy.
