More than six people in ten in Swaziland say they are not satisfied with the way democracy works in the kingdom.
This was one of the findings in a report called 'Let the People Have a Say', published this week by Afrobarometer.
The research surveyed 34-countries in Africa and asked a series of questions about what people thought about democracy and how democratic they thought their own country was.
But, only in Swaziland were researchers were not allowed to ask a question about whether people rejected 'one man rule'. In its report Afrobarometer said this was because 'a near-absolute monarch resists democratization' in the kingdom.
