Passing Away of His Excellency the Rt. Hon Prime Minister

He came. He gave. And when he was spent, he left. There are no words to express our shock and sorrow as a business community.

The news of the demise of His Excellency the Right Honourable Prime Minister still feels like a nightmare from which we are yet to awaken.  We have always known that life is fleeting but this is too sad to bear and too soon to accept.

As a business community we have been privileged to avail of his wise counsel over the years on important issues. And at another level, we have enjoyed his partnership and friendship. We have benefitted from his leadership as a former president of the Chamber and latterly, as prime minister of the land. He had the best interest of the country at heart in everything he did. In the midst of this deadly pandemic, he gave his life completely to mitigating its devastating effects on the people. Little did we know that, fight as he did, he would end up succumbing to the very same disease he fought so hard to prevent.

As Business Eswatini we would like to pass our sincere condolences to Their Majesties, His Excellency’s family, especially Make Dumile and the kids; the business community and the entire nation at large.

May your soul rest in eternal peace.
