Deploying armed police to funerals of political activists, terrorize mourning families is heartless Mr PM.

Saturday, 12th February, 2022

Cleopas Dlamini, the Prime Minister of a Government that deploys armed police officers at funerals of political activists to terrorize mourning families, labelled those who protested at the NetCare Hospital where Indlovukazi is being treated as heartless. 

Perhaps, let me bring to the attention of the Prime Minister that hundreds of Swazis were deprived the right to bury their family members in peace merely because they were political activists, armed police always invaded funerals with guns.

Now, a Prime Minister whose government always harasses families of political activists with guns even during grieving times expects Swazis to ‘romance’ eSwatini Queen Mother Ntombi Tfwala just because she is sick.

The King’s Mother and her son Mswati is slowly changing mindset of Swazis, we have never seen emaSwati celebrating sickness and deaths but now this angry Nation is doing it.

That the Nation is now celebrating the sickness of the Queen means if given a chance, some Swazis can assist her to die, how do you continue to lead people who hate you such that they wish you could die?

Prime Minister Cleopas Dlamini should learn from the behaviour or attitude of the current generation towards this Government that Mswati’s regime is no longer needed and try to correct the political problem.

It is this regime that is heartless towards the citizens, police shot and killed citizens, grabbed bullets from their bodies and subsequently terrorized their families during funerals.

It is therefore hypocrisy of the highest order for the Prime Minister to label peaceful protestors who were expressing their wish to see the Queen airlifted back to eSwatini for medical treatment as heartless.
