Eswatini By-elections 2021

By-elections are taking place tomorrow 14 August 2021 for election of two Members of Parliament to replace the late Cabinet Ministers from Lamgabhi and Shiselweni I constituencies. The Ministers Makhosi Vilakati and Christian Ntshangase passed away early this year due to COVID complications.

According to a statement issued by the chairman of the Elections and Boundaries Commission, polling stations will open at 7am. Community members from these constituencies expressed excitement that they will finally be represented in parliament after many months of no representation.

Civil society groups have been raising awareness on the election of women. Lamgabhi has two women contesting for the position and Shiselweni I has one woman. The Matsanjeni South constituency will be electing Indvuna Yenkhundla. They have two female candidates.

The polls will decide tomorrow who the winners are.
