Anti-government protests gain momentum in Swaziland

On Tuesday, April 12, “Defiance actions’’ were organized by the Communist Party of Swaziland (CPS) across Swaziland. The date marks 49 years since King Sobhuza II, father of the current monarch, took absolute power in 1973. The key demand of the protests was an end to the absolute monarchy as well as the creation of a people’s government with a multiparty democracy and democratic ownership of the economy.
