SIGWE:Mangena Jele, the Sigwe Indvuna YeNkhundla, says David Cruizer Ngcamphalala, the Minister of Tinkhundla and Development will be voted back to Parliament due to his continued loyalty to the residents.
Speaking at Ekuthuleni uMphakatsi on Friday, where the mass funeral preparations of the ten (10) truck accident victims were discussed, Jele said the families stated categorically that they don’t want comrades to facilitate the arrangements.
“We have our MP among us; he has been with us through and through and we will vote him back to Parliament because he is a hard worker.The families stated categorically that they don’t want the so-called comrades here," said Sigwe Indvuna YeNkhundla.
On another note, Minister Cruizer Ngcamphalala, the Sigwe Member of Parliament (MP) announced a donation of ten(10)coffins, rice, and mealie meal, among others, to the families of the victims.
The Minister proved popular among the residents as soon after announcing the donation and pledging to provide a TLB to maintain the roads ahead of the mass funeral, some residents were heard saying, "uyasebenta loMhlonishwa kumele abuyele."
Reached for comment, Sikelela Dlamini, the Secretary General of the MultiStakeholder Forum (MSF) said Swazis are related and there was no way comrades could be banned from attending a funeral.
"Comrades are not animals, and it’s hard to identify them because they are Swazis; it’s not like they are branded such that you can see them from a distance.They will attend that funeral as Swazis, just like anyone else.Maybe we can warn those traditional leaders that this country is fast changing politically and those who still discriminate and label others because of their political beliefs will have a problem because political change cannot be prevented,"said the MSF Secretary General.
