Mosisili�s scramble to retain power: Lesotho�s constitutional crisis

For those outside Lesotho, the question has always been why so much happens in this small impoverished country unlike in the rest of the Southern African region? I have been trying to answer that question in the 12 months since the launch of lesothoanalysis.wordpress.com.

At the heart of the problem in Lesotho has always been Governments which are not focused on answering the needs of the people, but pandering to the needs of a small clique of politicians allied or subservient to the military. It has been a case where politicians plot, murder and steal public resources without fear of consequences as a result of their alliance with some elements in the military.
