    Swaziland's justice minister has resigned following allegations he was having an affair with one of King Mswati III's 13 wives. The prime minister said Ndumiso Mamba had resigned from his position as both cabinet minister and senator. He said it was because of "allegations circulating in the country".

    Mamba's alleged affair with Queen Nothando Dube was first reported in neighbouring South Africa's media.

    The king's 12th wife has reportedly denied the allegations and there has been no comment from Mamba.

    But Prime Minister Sibusiso Dlamini said Mamba had agreed to step down so the allegations could be investigated.

    "I have consulted with him and he has forthwith resigned," said the prime minister in a statement.

    Some Swazis are critical of King Mswati - an absolute monarch whose lavish lifestyle and many wives contrast with the poverty of many of his subjects.

    This is nothing new under the sun and therefore, shouldn't be seen as a surprise. It is not only in Swaziland that these ills are happening, but also in many other parts of the world where those in positions of leadership and influence always oppress their subjects.This is a very disturbing issue indeed. However, there is one big question: "Why would these poor subjects rely on the crumbs that fall from their rich rulers' table?" Everyone needs to be seated at the meal and sharing the national cake! Probably someone has an idea on how to tackle this vice in society. Read More
