Themba Masango, secretary general of #NotInMyName said his organisation is calling on “all forward thinking Africans and Emaswati in particular” to join the peaceful picket aimed at highlighting the human rights atrocities and violations in eSwatini

3 July 2021: Hlalu Bhembe holds a picture of his brother Vusumuzi Bhembe, who was murdered by state security officers in Ngculwini, eSwatini.
Vincent Vusumuzi Bhembe, 65, of Ngculwini in the Manzini region, was standing at the Philomena Primary School fence looking down at the damage to a shopping centre when a vehicle ferrying security officers came rushing past. Warning shots were fired, and then a shot at close range hit Bhembe in the back.
“The police officers did not utter any word, they just shot at the people. The shooting happened so fast that Bhembe was oblivious to what was taking place,” says Ray Ndzimandze, 47, who was at the shooting.
