MBABANE: On Wednesday, the Executive Command of the Swaziland International Solidarity Forces(SISF) invited this journalist to witness the inspection of weapons to be used during underground operations.
King Mswati, an absolute Monarch incited a civil war by refusing to engage in a political dialogue and subsequently unleashed his soldiers and police to shoot and kill dozens of civilians merely for demanding democratic reforms.
Despite efforts by the Southern African Development Community(SADC) to facilitate a peaceful resolution in the eSwatini crisis, King Mswati refused to attend a SADC meeting and continued to brutalise protestors.
The King recently instructed his police officers to meet “an eye for an eye”.
“I therefore advise you that as you go about your very important duties, you go out in full alert and in readiness to respond effectively and decisively against any criminal elements and you must meet them eye for an eye,” he said.
On another note, the Commander of the Solidarity Forces said the weapons would be used in the next stages of the ongoing operations.
“These weapons would be used in the next stages of the ongoing operations.We don’t want to reveal our strategies, but we just want our people to know that the process of liberating the country from the hands of Mswati is ongoing,” said the SISF Commander, who was accompanied by other senior members commanding other units.
The Swaziland International Solidarity Forces(SISF) recently received a one hundred thousand Rand (R100,000.00) donation from a Swazi businessman, and it has been revealed that other businessmen are coming-in with monetary support to liberate Swazis.
A questionnaire was sent to Government Spokesperson Alpheous Nxumalo, however, he had not responded at the time of compiling this report.
Eswatini is in the midst of a political crisis as a result of King Mswati's deployment of his security forces to shoot and kill scores of civilians merely for demanding democratic reforms. Recently, he refused to appear before SADC, a regional body that is encouraging a peaceful resolution to the ongoing crisis.
