Swaziland: The King can do no wrong? (3)
----------------------------------------

Peter Bujari is right that King Mswati of Swaziland is not alone
in the engagement of gross malfeasance in use of public funds.
Many leaders in and out of Africa are equally guilty. It is an
age old problem. This fact however does not make the acts right.
Given successes achieved in other countries, surely the point to
emphasize is that civil society members especially in African
countries need to invest in advocacy learning, activism and deft
skills utilization for holding their leaders accountable for use
of public funds.
