A blistering conflict has erupted from within the Swazi royal camp over the inclusion of a clause that recognizes political parties in Swaziland. The dispute has led to the drafting of the national constitution being delayed now by a month. The committee, led by King Mswati's brother, Prince David, is reported to have angered the King by unbanning political parties in the draft constitution.
