BRIZO-THE WHIPPING BOY

The climax of the Kingdom of Eswatini's Independence Celebrations came at noon on a Friday when His Majesty King Sobhuza II received the instruments of  Independence from Mr George Thomson , Britains Commonwealth Secretary , before 40 000 people at the Somhlolo Stadium at Lobamba. ..During the handover His Majesty King Sobhuza II stated that the handover returned to the Eswatini people 'the sovereign independence they enjoyed 65 years ago' . During the day His Majesty mentioned that the handover terminated a long and friendly association with the people of Britain in one form but he hoped the association would continue in another form between the Britons and Emaswati in the future.

I know i have been cursed more than i had been blessed...Imagine having been deprived of enough space on an ancestral piece of land in Msunduza due to the Urban Development (which i religiously love to hate).We had to cope with the arrival of neighbours we didn't know where they emerged. it was because of buying power they had to occupy our four roomed concrete slabs which had been destroyed by cyclone (Zamcolo). ...Little did we know that we were to be invaded by a very not so friendly person who had the guts to destroy our trees in the guise that they were a nuisance to his recently acquired land. i had to be hauled before a magistrates court after threatening this  citizen who has always been hell boud to my family life uncomfortable and gory..thank you for his fence erected at our doorstep. i am not from a family of any powerful soul, and since childhood we have never had a priviledge of abusing people in the spaces but have been subjected to such due to our very humble bloodl...

The best people live life it's Supersport Blitz( taken from : is it just me or is everything kak). Tim Richman (the author ) states that when Supersport Blitz first started in the early 2000s it was revolutionary and was called the sport highlights Chanel. I agree with him that everyone was naive , we had low standards of living and everyone owning a television set cared about something called 'the sports highlight channel'.this was the period everyone had the privilege to watch a cricket , soccer or rugby match condensed in two minutes and such were on repeat. He has gone to the extent of explaining that this is the anology of our daily living, where our lives have turned out to be a highlights package. The reasons laid include: - We now have the privilege to only pick an favorite song from an album and have the luxury of having it on repeat or rather shortening the play length easily. - We do not need to travel to numerous destinations , we just relax and recycle our o...

1. The country has witnessed some of the worst moments in modern history: A global economic depression in COVID-19 2.The departure of the American citizens boarding that Ethiopian Airline Boieng 777 gave me goosebumps , hoping to see more of such huge plane at our beloved King Mswati III International Airport. back to the departure itself it just smelt like the Donald Trump's 'America First' presidential campaign. 3. During these days of pressure and expectations i hope many of us have come to realise and appreciate that governing is different from campaigning. 4. We are now officially living through interesting times; just how much of a curse that it remains to be seen 5. Some people do not seem to appreciate that it retains a respect for government's rights to act generally as they wish within their borders , subject to the constraints of broadly accepted  provisions of International Law such as Universal Declaration of Human Rights. 6.Sovereign obligation d...

Firstly i would like to appreciate the fact that our very own experienced writers /journalists have developed their own Eswatini Farming magazine which does not only give us stories about Agriculture in Eswatini but covers issues including innovative Climate Smart Agriculture, bring out the voiceless rural folk to teach citizens like us that grew up in townships about indigenous food and of their benefits in our daily livelihoods. Whilst i have been on lock down for the last 14 days i got to appreciate that most of Emaswati take their lives for granted , will  never appreciate Government's efforts in the fight against Covid-19 epidemic. it seems like our people do not imiagine life would be without such a support by the Government/Ministry of Health for that matter. The valuing of all announcements as 'copy & paste' from our neighbours in South Africa  is just a shear display of not valuing the country's Authorities enough. We have been schooled on being respectfu...
