Great Video..i was born in Swaziland and this video is straight fact..Eswatini is a beautiful and peaceful country too

[phoroza]

I'm from South Africa 🇿🇦 and I love what the people of Eswatini did the past few months by trying to remove him from power slowly but surely one day they will 👊🏿👊🏿 power to the people of Eswatini

[contentboxx]

As a neighboring resident of eSwatini, I can attest that the King Of Swazi is an extremely evil man

[rylanhartze]

The worst part is that he knows how poor his people are but still does this. A real disappointment and terrible person.

[zonemm]

living in Eswatini, , , never thought id see Eswatini here, , , This is all True by the way, ,

[lunathikamva]

Surely his people are not proud to call him their king

[adamaringoz]

If I were king I would help my nation FIRST!!

[siyabulelamlungwana]

With a population of less than 1.3 M and cannot share, selfish king.

[cebsilembuyisa]

As a citizen living in eSwatini. This is all true and we are tired. We are suffering in our own land. It's so painful

[l-classifiedc-classified]

His people are starving yet he feels so comfortable driving around in $450, 000 vehicle? What a disgrace! He can enjoy his earthly posessions all he wants while he is still alive but the day he dies he will not be able to take nothing but he will have to answer to God. Surely he will go to hell. Just like all the earthly kings and queen.

This is true 💔 and 😢 sad. Eswatini is a very hard place to live in 😭 thing are very expensive yet we earn little money. We struggle to put food on the table 💔 and the sad truth is that there is nothing we can do about it because 90 precent of things in Eswatini belongs to him 😭. I really wish that one day things will change

[mrmoustache]

[thornmtsetfwa]

I was not only born there, but I am a citizen and the school shown is my former high schoo(Salesian High School), I confirm that this clip is right on the money. Even doing the guy a bit of justice if I am being honest. Political instability is how I would describe my home country right now. Key word King Mswati is a dictator

[mvanamthandeni]

What hes doing is exactly what Mugabe was doing to Zimbabwe 😥😥😥😥

[nolisto]

You can have a fast luxury car, but where are you going to drive it when there aren't any roads

[lindelanimhlongo]

I travel to eSwatini every year and i love this country..no crime, no load shedding.

[menzimabuza]

As a liswati living in Eswatini..this is all true..but I believe one day we shall liberate ourselves

[speakingthetruthwithruthtr]

THIS IS SO SHAMELESS!!! The King is having his heaven here on earth. His selfishness will keep him out of Heaven! What a tragedy he is neglecting his poor people who he should be helping. What a crime!!!

Pray that my brothers and sisters and Africa make it to the day the know true democracy and freedom, and elimination corruption.
