13 APRIL 2020 (AFRICA NEWS AGENCY)

Africa's last absolute monarch King Mswati III is in a critical condition in hospital, according to local media reports in Eswatini (formerly Swaziland).

According to Swaziland News, high-profile royal sources told the online newspaper that the king was admitted to Manzana Royal Hospital in a critical condition and was struggling to breathe.

The publication reported that Lusendvo Fakudze, the governor of Ludzidzini Palace, when asked to confirm and clarify the matter last Thursday after senior members of the Umbutfo Eswatini Defence Force were seen maintaining high security at the hospital, avoided the questions and asked the nation to pray.

The newspaper reported in March that Mswati was in self-isolation due to the coronavirus pandemic after meeting a delegation from Taiwan that recently visited Eswatini to donate helicopters.

Two Taiwanese soldiers who formed part of that delegation were among 400 military personnel who were quarantined for coronavirus, Swaziland News reported, citing a Taiwan news report.

The soldiers were reportedly invited to dinner with the king where they shook hands one by one as they posed for photographs with him.

King Mswati III has ruled over Eswatini for 34 years and has 15 wives.

SWAZI JOURNALIST LIVES IN FEAR FOR REPORTING KING'S HEALTH

After the Swaziland News ran their story about the king’s admission to hospital, The Royal Eswatini Police (REPS) issued a notice appealing to anyone who knows the whereabouts of Zweli Martin Dlamini, the editor of the publication to assist them with information.

On Friday 10 April 2020, the publication reported on its Twitter account that REPS officers arrived at the editor’s home and harassed Dlamini’s wife, four-old son and seven-year old daughter.

His wife was reportedly taken to the Mbabane police station where she was tortured and humiliated after REPS officers demanded that she reveal the editor’s whereabouts.

Dude is just useless in any case

He should save his country by dying. He doesn't respect his people and wastes state money.
