NEW VOICE FOR SWAZILAND FREEDOM

A new voice in support of freedom and democracy in Swaziland has taken to the Internet.

S1ka Media is written by Sikelela Dlamini and ‘explores and interrogates some compelling socio-political topics/issues confronting contemporary Swaziland, his native country’.

On his blogsite Damini reminds us that the way forward for Swaziland is not through bombing. He writes, ‘The most effective weapon is our peaceful determination to make Swaziland a democratic home for all who inhabit this beautiful land. The mode, of course, is sustained mass protest, which observes the highest level of discipline. No amount of brutal police or military force should break our spirit and resolve. We should be prepared to be beaten or even killed for what we hold so dear. The bullets of the world cannot stand in the way of the popular will. We should never allow physical force to prevail over humanly principles and noble ideals.’
