MBABANE:Mbongwa Dlamini, the President of the Swaziland National Association of Teachers(SNAT) is expected to receive a back-pay after the Industrial Court declared government’s decision to stop his salary unlawful.

The judgment was delivered by Industrial Court Judge Lungile Msimango on Monday.

Dlamini’s salary was stopped by government amid persecution of trade union leaders in the Kingdom of eSwatini.
