AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Scholarships & Energy Skills: Three Emaswati students have been selected for SOCAR-funded studies in Azerbaijan after King Mswati III’s May visit to Baku—two for bachelor’s degrees in petroleum engineering and one for a master’s in chemical engineering (oil and gas technology), with Prime Minister Russell Mmiso Dlamini urging them to stay focused and represent Eswatini responsibly abroad. Immigration & Deportations: A US deportee, Ayana, has been sent to Cameroon under “third-country” arrangements, joining a growing list that includes Eswatini, as families and legal protections are left behind and people face uncertainty. Public Health Lawmaking: Stakeholders are pushing for tougher penalties in Eswatini’s proposed Tobacco Control Bill, including harsher jail terms and fines, stricter packaging rules, and wider smoke-free zones. Digital Government Finance: EPTC is seeking a US$26m (E455m) World Bank loan for the Digital Eswatini Project, with government set to guarantee repayment. Tax Disputes: The Revenue Appeals Tribunal says it will strengthen independence, credibility and efficiency as tax appeals rise. Transport & Culture: Plans are in motion for 50 buses to move maidens for the Shiselweni Reed Dance, alongside trucks for luggage and water support. Consumer Safety: Isuzu has recalled D-Max bakkies across several countries, including Eswatini, over a potential brake pedal fault. Sports & Community: Eswatini’s Under-20s open COSAFA qualifying against Angola in Mozambique, while the Eswatini Comedy Festival returns for its third edition on September 25.
