Void ID no problem Faulty ID fine for voting, but not for claiming pension
} Boipelo Mere IT still remains a puzzle why Ouma Maggie Dikgetsi’s Identity Document (ID) is not recognised. The same ID that was declared void, is the one that she used to vote with on 7 May. Ouma Dikgetsi smiled from ear to ear when Express Northern Cape went to enquire whether her new ID had indeed been delivered to her before election day. Instead of the good news of the arrival of the new ID, Dikgetsi announced that she had woken up early in the morning to go and vote with her old ID. She was proud that she had managed to exercise her vote like any other South African on the day.
In response as to whether she understood that there was still a missing puzzle piece in her case, she said: “I’m just happy I
could vote.” According to Dikgetsi, something had told her just to go and vote on election day.
‘On that day I got hope that I would get my ID, because even my pension was cut off. They said my birthdate on the ID was wrong.’
She was not stopped by the false promises that she would be issued a new ID document before the elections. Her hopes were raised by the visit of Angie Motshega, the president of the Women’s League, during her election campaign in Kimberley.At the polling station, no one tried to prevent her from voting and she followed all procedures. The ID was also scanned like everyone else’s before she was inked on her left-hand thumb. “On that day I got hope that I would get my ID because even my pension was cut off. They said my birth date on the ID was wrong.” What makes her wonder now is why her ID document was declared faulty. Not even the Department of Home Affairs has given her an explanation as to where the problem lies, or why there is a delay. Express Northern Cape attempted to approach the Department of Home Affairs for an answer, but was denied an answer due to “client confidentiality”. Abednigo Mvula, the provincial manager of the Department of Home Affairs in the Northern Cape, phoned the Galeshewe branch in the presence of Express for updates on the case.

Town crowns first idol
THE 2014 Tsantsabane Idol Golden Star competition reached a dramatic climax when singing sensation Mpho Maroane (21) was crowned as the 2014 Tsantsabane Idol. Maroane was crowned in front of a packed audience during a grand finale that was held in the Postmasburg town hall on 3 May. The runner-ups were Shaunette Heyns and Thato Makape who also did very well with their respective renditions of I’d give anything of Gerald Levert and No woman no cry of Bob Marley. The ecstatic Maroane received a R25 000 CD production package, a R5 000 wardrobe upgrade voucher, a flat screen television set, a video camera and a laptop as the first prize package. Runner-up Shaunette Heyns was delighted with her second prize: a flat screen television set, home theatre set and a R1 000 gift voucher. Thato Makape, who mesmerised fans with his velvet voice, came in third place and scooped a flat screen television set, cellphone and a R1 000 gift voucher. The event coordinator, Hendrè Jacobs from the Tsantsabane Centre of Hope, said the Tsantsabane Idols project is intended to develop a platform to unearth local vocal talent as well as stimulate community social life. “The first season was a huge success, drawing interest and support from families from different backgrounds and the grand finale was a very special and historic evening,” Jacobs said. During his message of support the mayor of Tsantsabane, Elroy Phete, encouraged the youth to engage in positive activities and express support for the Tsantsabane Idols project. More than 100 people auditioned for the first Tsantsabane Idols competition. The 2014 Tsantsabane Idols competition has been made possible by a generous sponsorship from the National Arts Council and has been brought to Postmasburg by the National Development Youth Outreach (NYDO), a non-profit organisation based in Pretoria. The Tsantsabane Centre of Hope, a local, faith-based welfare organisation, partnered with NYDO, approached Phete to augment the prize pool. Phete persuaded Sedibeng and PMG Mining to support the project by sponsoring some of the prizes. Jacobs also applauded the support Kumba gave to the Tsantsabane Centre of Hope, through the office of George Benjamin, public affairs manager of the Kolomela Mine.

PUBLIC NOTICE Application for the trial release of genetically modified organisms Monsanto South Africa (Pty) Ltd. PO Box 69933, Bryanston 2021, hereby announces that four applications will be made to conduct confined field trials with four genetically improved maize products. The objective of these trials is to confirm protection of the genetically improved maize against maize stalk borers and abiotic stress conditions. The first genetically improved maize product contains the cry1A.105 and cry2Ab2 genes isolated from Bacillus thuringiensis; additionally it contains recombinant DNA derived from the bacterium Bacillus subtilis that codes for the production of a protein, cold shock protein B, which enables maize plants to be more tolerant to abiotic stress conditions. Neomycin phosphotransferase type II gene was used as a selectable marker gene. The transformation methods used was Agrobacteriummediated transformation. In addition to the above, the product also contains the glyphosate tolerant 5-enolpyruvyl shikimate-3phosphate synthase (epsps) gene derived from Agrobacterium sp. strain CP4 (cp4 epsps). This product was developed through conventional breeding and confers protection against maize stalk borers, tolerance to herbicides containing glyphosate, and abiotic stress conditions. The second genetically improved product contains product contains the cry1Ab coding sequence isolated from Bacillus thuringiensis, additionally it contains recombinant DNA derived from the bacterium Bacillus subtilis that codes for the production of a protein, cold shock protein B, that enables maize plants to be more tolerant to abiotic stress conditions. Neomycin phosphotransferase type II gene was used as a selectable marker gene. The transformation method used were Agrobacteriummediated transformation and micro-projectile bombardment of embryonic maize tissue. This product was developed through conventional breeding and confers protection against stalk borers as well as tolerance to abiotic stress conditions. The third genetically improved maize product contains the cry1A.105 and cry2Ab2 genes isolated from Bacillus thuringiensis; additionally it contains recombinant DNA derived from the bacterium Bacillus subtilis that codes for the production

THE three “born frees” Magraet Mberego, Celeste Jack and Mokane George from Platfontein hope for a brighter future. That is the real reason they woke up to join the queue of South Africans to vote on 7 May. According to Mberego, who wants to become a journalist more than anything in her life, she hopes for a better future for the youth in her area. Speaking to Express Northern Cape right after casting their votes for the first time in their lives, they expressed their fears of how they might end up staying at home again next year. They really wish that the government will improve the allocation of bursaries, as they promised during their election campaigns, to allow them to study further and improve their chances on employment. The trio matriculated last year (2013) and decided to take a gap year in order for them to make final decisions on their careers. They are confident that they will move to Bloemfontein next year to further their studies. They also wish for better infrastructure in terms of roads, housing and toilets in their community. “We do not want to end up joining the army out of frustration like most of the youth in our area does. “We also do not want to end up like our parents who are continuously misled by

Limited enrolment hurts parents } Mokete wa Lebitso THE registration for gr. R to gr. 7 learners for the academic year 2015 has brought joy and sorrow to some parents. As early as Saturday afternoon at both the Kimberley Junior School and West End Primary School, parents could be seen standing in queues. Some had to sleep in the queues for both Saturday and Sunday nights in order to secure their places when registration started on Monday at all primary schools
in the province. At West End Primary School there are only 33 places for gr. R learners and at the Kimberley Junior School only 75 (three classes of 25 learners each). This is worrying, taking into account the number of parents that stood in queues and had to endure the cold Saturday and Sunday nights on the street. At West End Primary the intake of gr. R learners should at least be increased to two classes or 45 learners (if there is only one gr. 1 class for the school) and to 90
learners at Kimberley Junior (three classes of 30 learners per class). As parents we all want a better education for our children and for parents to stand in queues and spend sleepless nights on the streets, only to be told that the schools are full, is a serious slap in the face. Something has to be done to ensure that schools enrol more learners, including Newton Primary, Herlear Primary and Diamantveld Primary, where most parents flock to because of the quality of education offered. Today, education is an investment and
parents take pride in investing in quality education for their children. MEC Grizelda Cjiekella – we have voted, and now is the time that our children should receive quality education in all schools in the province and that Kimberley Junior, West End, Diamantveld Primary, Newton and Herlear increase their enrolment figures in order to deal with the intake of new learners especially in gr. R and 1. For all parents who never went to look for schools for their children, expect the worse if the Department of Education does not come to your rescue.

Praying for party SOME of the supporters even seemed to shed tears.
THE Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) supporters were spotted on their knees, praying for their commander in chief (CIC) to make it to parliament. This was on the eve of the elections day (6 May) after their week-long protest at the Hulana Cirle. Indeed their prayers were heard as they managed to get 25 seats in the national parliament and 2 seats in the Northern Cape provincial legislature. Photos: Boipelo Mere
Will ANC deliver this time around? } George Motloane THE ANC has to hit the ground running immediately after the fifth administration is put in place, making it impossible for them to have time to celebrate their hard-fought victory of the 2014 general elections. Even when they completed their fourth term as the ruling party, the ANC knows how many problems they face in all fronts. The economy is in a bad shape, unemployment has skyrocketed and there is that educational scandal of many principals occupying their positions illegitimately in some provinces. Also, the president of the country is constantly in conflict with the law and in the Northern Cape the chairperson of the ANC, John Block, has spent the past 15 years in and out of court. In addition, there is the question of Sassa and the recent court verdict, and labour unrest in the Platinum Belt that refuses to go away, and a host of other things that include Zwelinzima Vavi and the future of the presently disjointed Cosatu. However, speaking to ordinary people on the street, it is clear that some would want nothing other than the ANC, despite some people saying “things are turning slow for us but change will happen”. Mary Moremi lives in a one-room shanty in the Transit camp in Galeshewe. She has been staying there for more than six years and there have always been promises by the ANC comrades that things will improve; they will get water and electricity. “Just before the elections we saw people
digging trenches for water and sanitation infrastructure. We were so excited, thinking that finally services have reached us. “That is not the case because it looks like the services are meant for the older side of the Transit camp and the rest of us might wait for the next elections in 2019,” said Moremi. When she was asked which party she voted for, she raised her fist and said: “Obviously the ANC”. Moremi’s friend, Mosesi, who refused to give her surname, stays with her boyfriend in the Transit camp and she is from the Losasaneng village about a few kilometres away from Barkly West, but in the North West province. According to Mosesi, she also voted for the ANC and thinks that it is only a matter of time before the government builds RDP houses for the Transit camp, but her real worry is about the creation of job opportunities. “I matriculated long ago in 2001. I had hoped to get a job to help my parents, who are pensioners, but I was not lucky, not even for the Expanded Public Works Programme (EPWP). “If it was not for my boyfriend, who is working in a butchery, I do not know what would have happened to me and my six-year-old child,” said Mosesi. Both Mosesi and Mary Moremi hope for a better future under the new administration because according to them the government will be afraid of the EFF and deliver on their promises to keep voters away from the EFF. The Northern Cape is likely to get a new premier since the case against John Block seems stagnant.

PSL’s finest chosen WITH the Absa Premiership season which drew to a close this weekend, the attention will quickly turn to the Premier Soccer League (PSL) Year-end Awards. Wednesday before last saw the Hyatt Regency Hotel’s auditorium in Rosebank, Johannesburg, filled with some of South Africa’s finest journalists who gathered to debate and motivate support for nominees in the various categories of the awards. Express’s sports editor, Sidwell Guduka, was again invited by Absa and the PSL to be a member of the judging panel that will decide on the outcome of the winners of the prestigious Absa Premiership Year-end Awards. Boipelo Mere, Express Northern Cape editor, spoke to him. Boipelo Mere (BM): Hi, Sid, congratulations on your invitation to be a judge for the PSL awards. Sidwell Guduka (SG): Thank you. I am very pleased and honoured indeed to have been invited to be on the judging panel. BM: This is not the first time that Absa and the PSL have invited you to be a judge in their awards, is it? SG: Very true. I have been one of the PSL Awards judges for over four years now. Absa and PSL keep on inviting me to help in these awards every year. This shows that the two organisations trust my judgement. BM: Please explain how the Absa Premiership Year-end Awards are decided. SG: First, three nominations for each category are made, and each journalist chooses his personal choice of one to three in each category. Then the results are officially counted and the winners chosen. Journalists get together a week before the final matches are played. We nominated three people per category, but asked if we could all make our final choices after the final matches; for example, giving the three nominees in each category

a ranking one, two or three in our eyes. Points are awarded for your number 1 choice (he gets 3 points), number 2 (2 points) and number 3 (1 point). We did this on Wednesday, 30 April.
The PSL instruct the clubs to get all their players to vote. The clubs then send this back to the PSL and they give out the shortlist of three nominees. This has been done already.
BM: Who is part of the judging panel for the 2013-’14 Absa Premiership Year-end Awards?
BM: And who nominates the player’s player of the year?
SG: It is a panel of journalists that is selected. There were approximately 30 of us – which means various opinions. There were writers from all over the country, including radio guys and television commentators. The veteran journalist Ramatsiyi Moholoa from Sowetan, Duane Dell’Oca, SABC commentator, Timothy Molobi from City Press, Billy Cooper, the chief soccer writer of Daily Sun, Carol Tshabalala, SuperSport presenter, Lindani Makwela from Thobela FM, myself, Rodney Reiners from Cape Argus, John Goliath from Cape Times, Jonty Mark from The Star, and Kgomotso Sethusha from Sowetan Sunday World, you name it, they were all there. BM: What is the procedure for nominating the player of the season? SG: Well, we do not have anything to do with this process. The media are called in for the other awards only, namely coach of the season, goalkeeper of the season, young player of the season and Absa-lutely awesome goal.
SG: It must be said that we have no idea who would win the player’s player of the year. That is done separately between Absa and the players. BM: Do you guys also do judging for the MTN8, Telkom Knockout and Nedbank Cup Awards? SG: No. Each competition organises its own panel of judges. I am led to believe they also consist of media people, I am not certain, though. I have only ever worked on the Absa Premiership nominations. BM: Lastly, when are the nominations and winners going to be announced? SG: The nominees and venue for the awards ceremony was announced at a press conference in Johannesburg last week Thursday. Winners will be announced at the PSL Awards on 18 May. BM: Thanks for your time, Sid, it is always a great pleasure talking to you. SG: You are welcome.
