The Swazi Observer, the newspaper in effect owned by King Mswati III, has backed the Prime Minister Barnabas Dlamini's ban on MPs going on the radio.
Dlamini had banned MPs from the airwaves in Swaziland, where all but one radio station is state-controlled and the PM is editor-in-chief.
Dlamini said MPs could not go on air without the permission of their areas' chiefs. He said it was wrong for them to just go on radio with issues which the chiefs were not even aware of.
The Observer, in an editorial, backed the premier, saying, 'We don't care about the national radio ban he effected on them.'
In particular, the newspaper objected to MPs drawing attention to the development needs of their constituents. 'MPs are in Parliament to make laws and not to play small time development officers,' it said.
It went on to say it did not want to hear the MPs talking about people's needs like burials, school fees and elderly grants.

Who on earth is Khawam you may ask?Khawam and her twin sister, Jill Kelley, are the focal points of the bizarre scandal that forced the married Petraeus to resign last weekend and has the two decorated commanders looking like fools. Defense officials and people close to Petraeus say neither he nor Allen had a romantic relationship with Kelley, a 37-year-old wife and mother, who is described as a prominent presence in military circles in Tampa, whatever tat means. She may also have been seen as a rival by Petraeus #39; biographer, Paula Broadwell, who sent supposedly sent Kelley a series of anonymous, harassing emails, which started an investigation that uncovered evidence of an affair between Petraeus and Broadwell. Really sounds like something from a Soap Opera...doesnt it? Chinese cyber police placed stricter controls on information distribution, to protect the political congress from prying cyber eyes.
