Members of the South African Police Service and the Tshwane Metro Police Department were on Wednesday deployed to the eSwatini High Commission in Pretoria as #NotInMyName activists were picketing against the reported human rights abuses in the neighbouring country

Pretoria – #NotInMyName activists on Wednesday closed off Blackwood Street adjacent to the eSwatini High Commission in Pretoria, next to Union Buildings, adding their voices to the mounting calls for King Mswati III to usher in democracy in Africa’s last absolute monarchy.

“We are going to make sure that with the little influence we have, we help the people of eSwatini to attain their democracy. That so-called Africa’s last monarchy is going to fall, and we will be at the forefront as young people. Mswati is going to fall.” Lucky Lukhele, spokesperson of the Swaziland Solidarity Network , told the gathering in Pretoria that the delegation assigned by Ramaphosa to eSwatini should strive to hear different voices and not only interact with King Mswati III.
