The Kingdom of Eswatini has denied reports that it was offering nationality to citizens from southern Africa to fill up for shortage of men in the country. | |
It follows a viral fake letter purportedly written by King Mswati III expressing concern with "scarcity of men" in the kingdom. | |
The letter claimed the king would facilitate the willing men from southern Africa to marry wives and get free houses from the kingdom. | |
"The public is notified that this circulating notice is fake," the Eswatini government said in a short statement posted on X. | |
It is not clear who authored the fake letter which had excited some social media users from southern Africa. | |
Eswatini, Africa's last absolute monarchy, has a population of about 1.2 million people. | |
