City waste summit ‘A third of food produced in the world ends up on landfill sites without it ever being eaten’ Staff Reporter news@inner-city-gazette.co.za

he Joburg Waste Summit 2013 held at the Sandton Convention Centre on Wednesday heard that solutions to South Africa’s social and environmental challenges may be closer than is appreciated.

Addressing the summit, Johannesburg Mayor Parks Tau said Joburg, like the rest of South Africa faces the challenges of unemployment, poverty, inequality and an increasingly limited space to dispose of its waste. “These challenges could however be successfully met by better managing the city’s waste.”

Tau challenged the about 400 delegates representing various organisations in the recycling and renewable

sector to find an appropriate word for what is presently called waste.

“This is necessary because of the increasing value that ‘waste’ is contributing to the economy,” he said.

Delegates included representatives from community organisations, glass, plastic, paper, packaging, and polysterene. They compared best waste management practices from other parts of the world, including how in some developing countries, the poorest citizens were using waste management to improve the standard of their lives while contributing to keep their cities clean.

Drawing from experiences in Africa, Asia, South America and Europe, United Nations Environmental Programme representative Cecilia Kinuthia-Njenga shocked delegates

by pointing out that 9.4million tons of food or a third of food produced in the world, ended up on landfill sites without it ever being eaten.

The amount of food wasted and where it ended up struck a chord with the Joburg mayor. He said about a fourth of Johannesburg’s 4.4 million population went to bed hungry at least three times a year while food ended up on landfill sites.

Responding to the startling numbers, Mayor Tau said Johannesburg was fast running out of landfill sites and might have to export its waste to neighbouring cities or provinces.

“This however would come with cost implications for Johannesburg citizens because the waste would have to be loaded on vehicles to be disposed of elsewhere,” he said.

Armed robbers held Crime Reporter crime@gazettelive.co.za

O

n Wednesday Johannesburg police arrested three men in connection with an armed robbery at a shop in Jeppe Street, according to Johannesburg Central police spokesperson Warrant Officer Xoli Mbele.

He says six suspects allegedly robbed the Bethal Fashion Trading shop situated at corner Jeppe and Kruis streets in the Joburg CBD. “The suspects entered the shop pretending to be customers; four of them pulled out firearms and demanded money. They stole an undisclosed amount of money from the shop and robbed customers of their cellphones. After that they fled in a white Quantum minibus. Security guards chased them and alerted the police; the vehicle was stopped and three suspects arrested. Two firearms, a toy gun, and nine rounds of ammunition were recovered.”

W/O Mbele adds that one of the guns recovered had earlier been reported stolen during a business robbery that occurred at corner Marshall and Goud streets; and that the robbery also involved six suspects, who fled the scene with an undisclosed amount of money, an Apple computer and a Samsung laptop.

“Three of the suspects are still at large and investigations continue to determine whether the suspects can be linked to that other business robbery in Marshall Street. The arrested suspects have been charged with business robbery and possession of unlicensed firearms and ammunition,” W/O Mbele adds.

Turf war in the mines

Mahikeng - A war between the Association of Mineworkers and Construction Union (AMCU), and the National Union of Mineworkers (NUM) is on underground in mines, according to police.

The police have confirmed that they are investigating five suspicious deaths in the North West and Limpopo. National forensic laboratory detectives recently spent four days underground searching for clues, following four such deaths.

The deaths, which have been recorded as ‘industrial accidents’ are believed to be linked to union rivalry and the police massacre of 34 miners at Marikana on August 16, which are being investigated by the Farlam Commission of Inquiry.

A police investigator said documents listed the deaths as ‘occupational deaths’, but pathology reports show something far different. The violence is blamed on a war for membership between NUM and AMCU. On Saturday AMCU’s North West organiser Steven Mawethu was shot dead near Rustenburg. On Sunday, two brothers, one a NUM member, were killed in Wonderkop. There have also been claims that ‘hit squads’ are involved at some gold mines. AMCU leader Joseph Mathunjwa said hitmen had been smuggled into hostels at Orkney mines. “They have guns, which they stash underground.” NUM’s Rustenburg coordinator Mxhasi Sithethi said: “There are so many weapons underground, including guns.”

Police spokesman Col Ronel Otto confirmed investigations into several deaths underground.

Ismail Vadi Joseph Mathunjwa

Krugersdorp - At the Gauteng taxi summit on Tuesday Gauteng Roads and Transport MEC Ismail Vadi told taxi operators to stop the violence that is undermining their success in the industry.

“This is an interactive process which is also aimed at educating taxi operators about opportunities in the industry,” he said.

Vadi added that association divisions made it impossible for the taximen to access opportunities in the industry. There are about 180 taxi associations in Gauteng representing 62 000 taxi owners. The taxi operators must form cooperatives and expand into other forms of transport. Commercialising is the best form of running profitable business,” he said.

Vadi gave an example of Alexandra taxi operators who have partnered to ferry commuters from Gautrain’s Marlboro station to places of work.

“They need to run professional and efficient services. In the Marlboro station project the taxis run on schedule, even if they are not full. There are other opportunities in the construction of stations, and the Gautrain project is a practical example that it can be done.”

Man defrauds municipality Cape Town - The Hermanus Magistrate’s Court has convicted a man for defrauding the Overstrand municipality, led by Mayor Nicolette Botha of R3 million.

The state said Hermanus Mostert submitted false quotations to secure tenders, and he was convicted of 285 counts of fraud on Tuesday. The state said Mostert, who owned HM Irrigation, was responsible for looking after equipment at the Hermanus Sewerage Plant and Preekstoel Water Purification Works between 2004 and 2009. He then submitted false quotations in the names of friends and acquaintances, to create fake competition with higher prices than his own, genuine quotations, which he always ensured were the lowest. Sentencing proceedings are set to start on 28 May

Durban - KZN Transport MEC Willies Mchunu has welcomed the decision not to construct a toll road in Isipingo, which was taken at a recent strategic meeting.

KZN chairperson of the Provincial Transport Portfolio committee Mxolisi Kaunda said the province was already over-tolled, and adding tollroads would overburden it.

The proposed N2 Wild Coast toll road was supposed to stretch from the Gonubie interchange near East London to the Isipingo interchange, south of Durban.

Mchunu welcomed the non-tolling decision.

“Placing a tollroad in Isipingo would have a negative impact on poor communities and workers from the South Coast who commuted to Durban or Isipingo. We have always said putting more tollgates in the Durban area will cause more financial hardship for commuters and slow down economic growth.”

T

he many cultures that make up Joburg will be celebrated on Africa Day, 25 May, in an event marked across the continent.

This is the annual commemoration of the founding of the Organisation of African Unity (OAU) on 25 May 1963. In July 2002 the OAU was succeeded by the current African Union (AU), which aims to secure Africa’s democracy, human rights, and a sustainable economy, especially by bringing an end to intraAfrican conflict and creating an effective common market.

This pays tribute to African history, heritage and culture. The day represents African unity, and the weekend celebrates the vibrancy, dynamism and cosmopolity of African culture.

The 45th Africa Day festivities, hosted by the City of Joburg, in partnership with the National Department of Arts

Joburg celebrates

Africa Day

and Culture, SABC 2 and SABC Africa, and produced by Arts Alive has confirmed a new set of events focussed on African literature and writing as part of the weekends celebrations.

Made possible by the National Department of Art and Culture, the newly confirmed literary activities will be taking place in and around Johannesburg. On May 24 Soweto will host the Soweto Artists Exhibition and an African Literature Display in the Mofolo Art Centre.

The writers’ dialogue theme is a topical one -Africa’s Challenges Today: Social Cohesion and Xenophobia and Human Rights, and will take place at the Natural History Museum in Tshwane and be facilitated by Write Associates.

The dialogue will be accompanied by a book exhibition, poetry readings and storytelling sessions.

The Soweto Artists African Literature Display will be a presentation of Soweto-based libraries, specifically their African writers collections, facilitated

by the Mofolo Library. The literature display will be complemented by a visual arts exhibition featuring paintings, sculpture and pottery, which will all be available for sale.

National Department of Arts & Culture Deputy Director Arts Cultural Promotion and Development Sidney Selepe says: “Among Africa’s greatest cultural achievements is our tradition of literary excellence. We are proud to support an initiative that showcases, develops and nurtures this aspect of Africa’s rich cultural heritage.”

This year, Johannesburg will be the site of a multi-disciplinary African celebration - the event line up thus far includes a free concert hosted by the SABC 2, SABC Africa, Department of Arts & Culture and the City of Johannesburg, produced by Arts Alive and SABC 2 on Mary Fitzgerald Square on Saturday, 24th May - the concert will be broadcast live on SABC2 and SABC Africa.

Before the broadcast, expect to see the legendary Mahotella Queens, Australia’s White Cockatoo, and the Rolling Spears Acrobats from Kenya.

There will also be the Harambe Afrika Celebrate!, an African craft exhibition, funded by the Kellogg Foundation, that will showcase the work of crafters from Botswana, Swaziland, the DRC, Zimbabwe, Mozambique and South Africa in Newtown’s Museum Africa. The exhibition, which is free to the public, will be on May 24 and 25.

There will be plenty more Africa Day commemorations around the city.

Thousands face hunger

Inner-city Gazette

Several die in bombing

Focus on Africa

Niamey - The United Nations has announced that about 800 000 people face food insecurity, and that some 84 000 are in immediate need of assistance as the humanitarian crisis worsens in the impoverished nation.

Struck by droughts and shortages of crops, the United Nations Office for the Co-ordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) warned that the hunger season, from June through August, poses significant danger. The har- Mahamadou Issoufou vest generally comes in September.

OCHA and the government of Mahamadou Issoufou said of the 800 000 people facing food shortages among Niger’s 17 million population, 84 000 have no more food reserves and are in need of immediate assistance.

The agency said the eastern Tillaberi and Tahoua regions, as well as the central-south region of Zinder are the most affected by the food crisis.

The crisis has forced some to live on leaves and wild berries, or to sell their cattle or agricultural equipment.

Niger, one of the world’s poorest countries, is regularly hit by food crises. According to the European Union, 10.3 million people face food shortages this year in nearly the whole Sahel region, which includes Niger.

Crowds protest ritual killings

Libreville - Thousands of people marched over the weekend to protest a prevalence of ritual killings, in which people are murdered so their body parts can be used in amulets that are believed to bring good luck.

The country’s first lady, Sylvia Bongo Ondimba led the event on Saturday along with several Christian and Muslim leaders.

Benghazi - A bomb explosion near a hospital has killed several people, officials say. Officials initially said nine people had been killed, but a hospital spokesman said three bodies had been found.

The blast follows a string of bombings in recent days. PM Ali Zidan addressed the nation with several members of congress. He offered condolences and spoke of inability to take the strict measures needed to prevent this kind of attack, though he acknowledged it was their duty to do so.

Accusations have focused on the Muslim Brotherhood and the state of Qatar. Monday’s attack has left a bitter sentiment among the people, they are angry and on the streets.

The explosives were placed in a Toyota near the hospital, officials said. Deputy Interior Minister Abdullah Massoud said the bomb destroyed a restaurant and damaged buildings. So far no group claimed responsibility for the attack. Crowds gathered at the scene, blaming militants for the blast and urging authorities to expel them from the city.

Govt jails political foes

Darfur rebel leader killed N’Djamena - The leader of a faction of Darfur’s main rebel group Mohamed Bashar, who signed a peace deal with Sudan last month, and his deputy, have been killed inside Chad, near the Sudanese border.

Bashar and his deputy Suleiman Arko were killed in a firefight with members of the Justice and Equality Movement (JEM) rebel group, Sudan’s intelligence agency has announced. JEM fighters reportedly attacked Bashar’s group while they were having lunch, just a few kilometres from the Sudanese border.

Basha’s advisor Nahar Osman said five other members of his group were killed, including a Chadian security officer and two cattle herders. JEM said Bashar’s forces attacked its base, forcing them to fight back. JEM rebels have been angry with Bashar for co-operating with the Sudanese government, after signing a peace deal in Doha to stop 10 years of fighting in Darfur. Last April, JEM fighters killed a deputy commander of the breakaway faction allied with Bashar.

Sources say Bashar’s death could raise serious questions about the security arrangement between Sudan and Chad, and that the death of the two top rebel leaders will also put on hold the peace agreement.

News

The president of the Association for the Fight against Ritual Crimes, Elvis Ebang Ondo, estimated that Gabon has 20 mutilation killings a year. He said there are more such killings in election years, as some people seek good luck amulets to win elections and government positions.

The marchers presented a declaration to President

Ali Bongo Ondimba, urging him to fight the crime. Police were called in to disperse a separate march by a group opposed to the participation of the first lady in the protest.

Isaias Afeworki

Asmara - Amnesty International (AI) reports that the regime has jailed about 10 000 political prisoners, many in ‘unimaginably atrocious conditions’.

With political opposition banned, independent media quashed and religious minorities targeted, the government uses a system of underground cells and shipping containers to house the prisoners, the report said. AI researcher Claire Beston said the regime of President Issaias Afeworki uses arbitrary arrest and detention without charge to crush all opposition, to silence dissent and punish anyone who refuses to comply with the repressive restrictions.

The report says at least 10 000 prisoners have disappeared into secret detention. The report was released ahead of Eritrea’s 20th independence celebrations on May 24, which followed a vote to split from Ethiopia after 30 years of war. The fighting ended in 1991, followed by a referendum two years later. A 1998-2000 border conflict with Ethiopia still simmers, which the regime uses as an excuse for its iron-rule. “Eritrea is one of the most repressive countries in the world,” Beston added.

Reporters Without Borders lists Eritrea below North Korea as worst for press freedom globally.

There was no immediate response from Asmara.

Funding boost for Hillbrow venture Mothibi Mthethwa

S

teadfastly adhering to its firm like `The only person who can make things happen is you’, `We are limitless’ and `Our youth, our future’, the National Youth Development Agency ( NDYA) handed over a cheque for R100 000 towards further development of the Hillbrow Entrepreneurship Initiative (HEI), on Thursday morning in Braamfontein.

“This is an important day, not only for the NYDA and the HEI, but also for South Africa and France,” said Mr Steven Ngubeni, CEO of the NYDA, in his opening speech. “France and South Africa have always enjoyed a long-lasting relationship, such as student’s exchange programmes.”

The man from Delmas in Mpumalanga Province, with three Masters’ degrees and presently reading for his PhD, Mr Ngubeni started off as a township-planner at Amakhazeni Municipality, then became unemployed for a period of two years, having been at the forefront of the Congress of South African Students (COSAS) during earlier years. He is clearly a man for all seasons.

“We at the NYDA feel proud to be associated with the HEI, an organisation for the youth and the homeless, by the youth and the homeless,” said Mr Ngubeni, who had to dash off to yet another important business meet-

ing, following the cheque hand-over.

Mr Siviwe Mkoka, Executive Manager (Research and Policy) for the NYDA, who also acted as Programme Director for the historical event, recalled how he became the first person Barbara Copelovici, the French student studying in South Africa, and also founder of HEI, met.

“I had shortly given a presentation on the NYDA one afternoon in Pretoria, when the delegates felt I should be introduced to Barbara, who was later invited to a talk show by 702 Radio.

That paved the way to the same 702 Radio station calling Barbara with the good news that the NDYA would financially help the HEI.” “If only I had things my way, I would certainly grant Barbara South African citizenship. She is simply great; a real philanthropist and a perfect example of limitless youth.”

Barbara is living proof that charity does not depend on where one comes from, but on what one can do for others. Half-a-world’s-distance away from the famous French landmark, the Eiffel Tower, and a stone’s-throwdistance from the famous Johannesburg Tower, Barbara came, she saw and conquered. ”Really I was not alone,” she said in disarming simplicity of her role regarding the formation of the HEI in 2012. “More than 40 strong-willed youths from countries like Botswana,

NYDA CEO, Steven Ngubeni, Barbara Copelovici, founder of the Hillbrow Entrepreneurship Initiative (HEI) and members of the HEI after the NYDA donated R100 000 to them.

Pic: NYDA

Lesotho and Mozambique studying in more than four university campuses in Gauteng, had put their hands together to help establish the HEI.” A video was shown highlighting the aims and goals of HEI, with a heartfelt message that says: `We can make things happen for the youth of South Africa’, carried through rap music background, and that `Your circumstances do not define your future’.

Single-handedly, South Africans cannot facilitate the development of the youth, but jointly with other sameminded countries like France, more can be done for the betterment of the youth, who are the future adults of any country. In short, we need strong

and healthy partnerships. In addition to taking homeless youths away from the mischief associated with their plight, unemployment and drug abuse, the objectives of HEI are two-fold: to develop life skills such as making informed decisions and job placements for them. In this way they will be able to develop themselves, their families, their communities, their country, their continent and the world.

In his keynote speech, Mr Charles Courdent from the French Embassy pointed that: “We come from the same area with Barbara, and often have lunch not far from each other.

You cannot miss her, with her warm smile and, of course her laptop, which

she uses at any given opportunity.

“On behalf of the French Embassy, we would like to commend all the young people at the HEI; for instilling the sense of hope in those who had already given up. Thank you for sharing your time, your skills and yourselves with those in need. May you keep the light burning.”

About the R100 000 donation, Barbara, who was invited to the World Economic Forum just a week ago, where she spoke at length about the HEI, explained: “We will invest through the HEI Cafe”, jokingly adding, “that specialises in French cakes.

The rest of the donated money will go towards organisational costs.”

City’s schools pest control campaign Kayakazi Luduli

fficials from the City of Joburg Environmental Health Department addressed IH Harris primary school learners in Doornfontein about health issues such as pest control and hand washing.

Pest control officer Mr Mashau said the aim was educating learners about health and the need of a clean environment to prevent sicknesses and diseases that could harm people.

“Rats can be harmful to the society as they can carry germs and may cause diseases. They can be found in dirty and unhealthy environments, where there are unused appliances and overgrown grass. They can get into houses through broken windows, open doors and broken pipes,” he said. When addressing the kids he mentioned ways of controlling the rats by setting up cage traps rather than killing them.” It’s not a matter of killing them but it’s controlling them” he said.

The learners were eager to listen to the information during the event by answering questions when asked.

Another official, Jabulile Ntuli

addressed the issue of head lice, and gave advice for the kids to keep clean as hygiene is important in one’s health. He gave tips about controlling head lice, and also indicated symptoms to realize they have this problem.

He also explained how to control the pests by stopping the life cycle. “If your hair is itchy and you find yourself scrubbing your head more often you might have them.

One of the processes one can use to get rid of these bugs is washing your head with warm water and comb the hair using two combs, one smaller than the other,” he added.

Another official Cate Dinalane also addressed the learners with the issue of washing their hands. She gave out advice to the learners about washing hands, and also demonstrated the process of washing hands.

Grade Two learner, seven yearold Brian Nukeir showed good listening skills as he recalled almost everything that was said during the environmental health campaign. The Environmental Health Department also urged the leaners to go out and spread the health message to their parents and community members.

Chiefs win league title First league title in eight years Soccer Correspondent

N

eeding only a draw to clinch the 2012 - 2013 PSL title Kaizer Chiefs started the league match against SuperSport United at Peter Mokaba stadium by attacking, but were let down by poor finishing.

SuperSport United tried to unsettle Chiefs and put more bodies in the middle of the park, with George Maluleka and Sameehg Doutie leading the attack. Supersport United nearly grabbed the lead in the 26th minute when midfielder Kermit Erasmus almost beat Itumeleng Khune with a swerving free-kick from outside the box, but the Chiefs’ ‘keeper punched the ball off.

Chiefs’ first real chance came in the 36th minute when Lehlohonolo Majoro entered United penalty area down on the left and played the cross to Bernard Parker who failed to connect. However, Siphiwe Tshabalala kept the ball alive on the right hand side and it was finally played to Majoro who then took the shot with his weaker foot, only for Rowen Williams to produce a fine save with his foot.

Amakhosi should have broken the deadlock on the stroke of half-time when Williams came off his line to punch Tshabalala’s cross and the possession fell for Reneilwe Let-

sholonyane, who picked Siboniso Gaxa on the right, but the defender blasted the ball over the bar.

Chiefs continued where they left off in the first half and it was Majoro who won possession from outside the visitors’ box, but his shot went wide. However, a minute later he ran onto Willard Katsande’s long pass that was misread by Williams to make it 1-0.

The visitors came back after the 60th minute and Chiefs ‘keeper Khune had to make two fantastic saves in a minute, as Supersport searched for an equalizer.

United won an indirect free-kick on the edge of Chiefs’ box and Doutie’s low shot was brilliantly blocked by Khune and the ball fell to Sibusiso Zuma who was offside despite putting the ball in the back of the net.

AmaKhosi nearly scored the second goal of the game in the 84th minute when Tefu Mashamaite met Tshabalala’s corner, but Williams positioned himself well to save. Supersport United finally grabbed the equalizer in the 88th minute after Zuma did well to lose his marker inside the box before unleashing a low shot that beat Khune.

Supersport United put the Chiefs defence under great pressure in the dying minutes of the game, but Amakhosi held on to the tie, and finally reclaimed the glory with their first league title in eight years.

Jimmy Tau

ormer Kaizer Chiefs captain and legendary defender, Neil Tovey said he is not surprised that the AmaKhosi are the 2012/2013 PSL champions after their 1-1 draw against SuperSport United on Wednesday night.

The Glamour Boys have been on top of the log since their first game of the season against AmaZulu, and Tovey believes that is a sign of a great team.

“No team deserved to win it more than them. They’ve been fantastic all season. Their first game of the season (6-0 win

over AmaZulu) really lifted them up and they never put the foot off the pedal from then,” Tovey said.

In the same period Amakhosi defender Jimmy Tau congratulated his teammates for bringing the league title to Naturena after eight years.

The former Chiefs captain did not play a single official match for the 2012/2013 PSL champions, but had the unique record of also winning the title with Orlando Pirates.

“The players have done well to repay their faithful supporters who supported the team all these years,” he said. Goal.com
