"Political Turmoil in Eswatini: Tradition, Monarchy, and Democratic Reforms"

In Eswatini, a college student, Manqoba Motsa, and other young activists are protesting to remove King Mswati III from power, facing violent crackdowns by riot police. However, Motsa's own father, a soldier sworn to protect the throne, stands in opposition to his son's efforts. This reflects a broader trend of restless young activists across Africa pushing to remove long-reigning leaders viewed as barriers to the continent's potential, as the continent's youthful population seeks to drive economic growth and global influence.
