Last update: 11 hours ago

Parliament Oversight: Prime Minister Russell Mmiso Dlamini was pressed to investigate allegations that some Royal Eswatini Police Service officers may be linked to illegal online gambling and to clarify the legal process for foreign nationals granted bail before repatriation. Energy Regulation: Natural Resources and Energy Minister Prince Lonkhokhela says Eswatini Electricity Company is within its rights to apply for electricity tariff reviews every two years, noting heavy reliance on imported power and a push to raise local generation. Financial Inclusion: Central Bank of Eswatini Governor Dr Phil Mnisi announced plans to roll out retail bonds, aiming to broaden trusted investment options for the public. Local Economy & Infrastructure: EWADE reports over E739.2m already spent on the under-construction Mpakeni Dam with nearly 200 local firms benefiting. Social Protection & Climate Shock: A cold snap in Hawane killed cattle, with losses topping E60,000, while authorities moved over 100 vulnerable residents to safety. Regional Politics & Integration: A SADC assessment says the bloc is improving on stability and mobility but still falls short on jobs, growth and youth unemployment ahead of the Durban summit. Trade & Jobs: Eswatini’s 58th International Trade Fair is projected to draw 70,000+ attendees, with organisers pitching it as a green-economy business platform. Sports & Governance: Senate also raised concerns about politicians potentially housing foreign nationals tied to illegal gambling, urging stronger enforcement through the Immigration Bill.
