I could be mistaken but as far as I know eSwatini gets loads of cash through taxing the Coca Cola businesses in their country. Coca Cola even flew the King out to their USA offices.

How would someone determine if something is fake or not?

What would you consider as valid process of elimination? or do you just stamp it as "fake" news because you can not believe it?
A twitter, whatsapp and Facebook post is most probably fake news until supported by an official source or a recognised news source. By posting a link to a news paper is a good start, that is if it is not one of those clickbait websites with the 100's of popup windows.

As a reward for imposing taxes? Poepalls.
I'm sure there's a few tax breaks in there, some of it being offset by kickbacks. I see the Coca Cola Chemicals factory is still going. This is one of the very few issues I have with large industries. That their mere involvement in a country can influence politics in a country.

A source, from eSwatini’s Ministry of Information Communications and Technology, confirmed to The Citizen that the king had indeed bought the vehicles. She said the vehicles arrived on Tuesday but was unsure on the exact number of the cars.

As close as you would get to proof

The masses don't understand or unable to grasp the implications of this, to the point where they'll still support the king.

Same reason why people will still vote ANC even if we become another Zim.

You do not see everyday trucks transporting 10 mil x 6 = 60 mil x 3 = 180 mil cars for A holes. Do they even have proper roads to travel on there?

But hey the locals must think hey they would like do be king someday so that they can do the same!

The highway between the Border and Manzini, is damn good. Better build quality then our Etoll highways.
