EVERYONE MUST BE TREATED THE SAME

Sir,

If I had to rate people and organisations which have little respect for taxpayers, I would really rate them poorly.


All these people are protected by the same Swazi Constitution but money and greed will bring Swaziland down.
It is a country where money seems to rule over the Constitution. Investors are more important than Swazi citizens and greediness exceeds. I sometimes wonder whether we are going in the direction of  vision 2022. Where is the fairness in Swaziland?


We constantly hear of people with money serving light sentences for the serious crimes they have committed in Swaziland, while the poor receive heavy sentences for shoplifting. Government must resolve the matter of fair labour practice in Swaziland. They must put Swazi citizens’ jobs first. The Swaziland Government should be concerned about the Swazi citizens losing jobs day in and day out. Some members of our government are greedy to the extent that they own large farms but they are not farmers.


When Swazi workers stand up for their rights, government stands on the side of investors. Swaziland is really sinking. The land is given to those who do have money and only want to be the owners.


Some government leaders are not fit to hold government offices. There are many leaders in our country who have forgotten that they are accountable to the people who elected them. Regardless of age, colour, position or gender, everyone must be respected.
Sir, people who work for government receive more tenders than people who are struggling and are trying to make a living honestly.

Our government needs to sit down and look at the Constitution and see what is it that it is doing wrong, so that it would in a position to accommodate all people in the country. We are Africans and our customary law needs to be considered in Parliament.
Please allow me to end like this... people, no matter how qualified you may be in life, you still need that ‘unqualified person’ to help you. I like this quote; .... ‘Learn from everyone educated or uneducated’.
