Community has had enough Hundreds march in protest against crime after another murder
} Tladi Moloi QWAQWA. – The community members from the Tseki Village in Qwaqwa are angry. They say they have had enough of crime and want the criminals to rot in jail. About 300 community members from Tseki and the surrounding areas marched to the Tseki Magistrate’s Court on Thursday morning to submit their memorandum. Apparently, the march was influenced by an incident where Lefu Moloi (39) from
Tseki was killed by a gang known as “Dihase” early in January. Three of the gangsters, Bethuel Msingusa (21), Kgaketla Mohapi (27) and Malefetsane Lephuthing (36), stand accused of murder. They were denied bail by the Tseki Magistrate’s Court on the same day. They are expected to appear before the same court on 24 February. According to Sgt Mmako Mophiring, police spokesperson, one of the gang members is still at large.
The community stated on the memorandum that they were opposing the bail of the three suspects. “They will intimidate the witnesses. Giving the accused bail will endanger the safety of the public. “It will disturb the public order and undermine the public peace.” Sentsho Mokoena, who was the convener, said they were appealing to the Tseki Magistrate’s Court to view the case as premeditated murder since the accused had

left their respective homes carrying weapons with the intention to harm or kill. Kgaratoe Lithebe, the Tseki Magistrate’s Court manager, said he had accepted the memorandum and added that he would direct it to the senior public prosecution. “The level of crime is manageable here, but the problem is the gangsters,” he said. “We know that crime is always an issue in the areas where unemployment is rife. Domestic violence is rife in this area and it should be addressed.”

Residents jubilant over electricity } Tladi Moloi HARRISMITH. – After spending 42 days without electricity the community of both Tsiame A and B near Harrismith has seen the light again and is breathing a sigh of relief. The minute the electricity came back on on Tuesday evening the community members celebrated as if it were the end of the year. They were ululating and blowing on vuvuzelas to show how happy they were. The electricity supply came back on a few days after thousands of community members had taken to the streets to submit a memorandum of grievances to the office of the Free State premier, Ace
Magashule, demanding the municipality fix the power. They had a horrible festive season without electricity as a result of a power sub-station which had burnt down near Makgolokoeng early in December. When asked why they were celebrating, Collen Charlie, a member of the Tshiame community, said: “We are happy that finally the electricity is back. It was not nice to spend more than a month without electricity because there were things we could not do. However, that is now a thing of the past and we can now live a normal life.” Vusi Tshabalala, the executive mayor of the Maluti-a-Phofung Local Municipality, confirmed that the electricity supply to
would need R24 million which excluded the transformer. “So I am not sure for how much the transformer was bought and about the money spent on the various service providers. The R24 million was the amount recommended by our technicians,” he said. He said investigations were underway to find out exactly what had resulted in the sub-station burning down. “I would like to thank the community for their patience. We know they were angry. I wanted them to have electricity before the end of the year, but things did not go as planned because of technicalities,” he concluded.

those areas had been fixed. “Yes, the electricity is back. We waited until late with Tumelo Thebe, the chief whip, to make sure people had electricity,” he said. He said some people had been telling lies that they had installed a second-hand transformer. “This is not true. We bought a big transformer,” he said. He said the reason it had taken so long for them to fix the problem was because they had to wait for that transformer to be manufactured. Tshabalala said he was not sure how much they had spent on fixing the problem. “We said as the municipality that we

Mayor wants students to go abroad } Tladi Moloi PHUTHADITJHABA. – Vusi Tshabalala, the executive mayor of the Maluti-a-Phofung Local Municipality, said he was going to make a proposal to the Free State premier, Ace Magashule, to ask that the municipality send ten students to study overseas next year. He said they had budgeted R5 million for bursaries for the current financial year and added that they would be looking at increasing that to R7 million. “Education is our priority and that is why we invest more in it. Our children have proved to be among the best in the province and we would like to come up with something special for them. That is why I am willing to put my proposal before the premier. “We have a learner who was named second best in the province and that proves what I am talking about,” he said. Tshabalala said they were willing to pay for those ten students if the premier accepted their proposal. “We will make sure that we pay for those students. They will come back after completing their studies to work for the community,” he said. Tshabalala spoke at the 2014 matric celebration that was held in the Phuthaditjhaba Multi-Purpose Hall in Qwaqwa. “I am very proud of the school that worked hard to produce these results. All 12 of our schools in Maluti-a-Phofung have obtained a 100% pass rate. We should be proud of that. “I want to thank all the teachers and the principal who worked tirelessly to make sure that our children were ready for the final examinations,” he said. He said they were looking forward to working with the schools in the district to get more 100% pass rates. “I wish all those going to tertiary institutions good luck on their new journey,” he said. Maleke Moloi, who was named the second best gr. 12 learner in the Free State, said he

The mayor has
promised to take us to Cape Town and that shows how special they think we are. “He also promised us a monthly allowance and we will see if he keeps his word,” he said. Pheello Kumalo, the principal at the Sekgutlong Secondary School, said the school would like to thank the municipality for their support and added that they would
make sure that they always worked hard to put the municipality on the map. “We are happy with your support. I remember that one of the members of the mayoral committee visited my school at the beginning of the year and he challenged us to obtain a 100% matric pass rate in 2014. And we did. We hope you will visit our schools more often,” he said.

Winner drives away in new car } Karen Herbert A BEAUTIFUL smile flashed across Vivienne Bojé’s face as the key she held in her hand unlocked the door of the Spark Campus, making her the winner of this snazzy Chevrolet. Bojé drove all the way from Jeffrey’s Bay and her effort paid off as she walked away with the main prize in Engo’s For Our Children Project. Vivienne and her husband, Kobus, are former Free Staters and said they had each bought a ticket for R20 at a butchery in Wesselsbron in the Free State. The fundraising project for the benefit of Engo Free State was presented for the sixth consecutive year last year. By simply making a R20 donation, supporters stood a chance to win a new Chevrolet Spark Campus. A record-number of tickets were sold – 20 566 – and at R20 each, a total of R411 320 was raised. This is 6,43% more than what was raised the year before. With the help of PwC, five finalists were announced on 9 January. The finalists were Henk Nieuwoudt from Bethlehem, Renate Serfontein from Koppies, Fanie van Eck from Vierfontein, Bojé and Makgotso Ramosito from Rocklands in Bloemfontein. The finalists competed last Friday during the main prize draw at Imperial GM Bloemfontein for the Chevrolet Spark Campus valued at R112 400. There were many consolation prizes given to the finalists, including accommodation and meals for the finalists and their partners at the Greenleaf Guest Lodge; meal vouchers sponsored by Ocean Basket and Braza at the Loch Logan Waterfront, dessert sponsored by Fresko at Loch Logan; gift vouchers from Kloppers, accommodation at the Protea Hotel Bloemfontein Central during a Super Rugby

Photo: Mlungisi Louw weekend, which also includes Super Rugby suite tickets for the finalists and their partners and gift vouchers from Head Artistry. This type of fundraising is critical, since state subsidies for welfare organisations are shrinking rapidly. “Every single contribution is like a spark that ignites the flame of caring,”
Magda van Niekerk, director at Engo, said at the event. Engo is the largest non-governmental organisation in the Free State. Their vision is to give hope to children and families in need, the elderly and people with disabilities. Engo Child and Youth Care Centres care for 800 children between the ages of 0 and 18 years, in 34 youth care
centres across the Free State. Additional assistance is also provided to about 3 000 children living in dangerous conditions. The For Our Children Project would not have been possible without the support of sponsors. This year’s sponsors were Imperial GM Bloemfontein, Radio Rosestad, Volksblad and its regional newspapers, including Express.
Fire leaves family’s house in ruins } Tladi Moloi BETHLEHEM. – An 87-year-old township resident was discharged from the Bohlokong Hospital after being admitted for shock around midnight on Sunday, following a fire at her house. Lizzie Mahlaba and her 16-year-old granddaughter Refiloe were lucky to escape with their lives after their house at the corner of Maxatshwa and Mlangeni Street caught fire. They were rescued after a passer-by had noticed flames coming from the house. Teboho Mokoena, the passer-by, raised the alarm and told Itumeleng (24), Mahlaba’s grandson, who was watching soccer in the next street, about the fire. Mokoena managed to wake his sister and grandmother in time before the house was completely gutted by the fire. Nepisi Mahlaba (49), another relative, had also been watching a game in the location when he was called to the scene. “When we arrived at the scene the fire was raging out of control, we could not stop it. We called the Dihlabeng Local Municipality’s firefighters but no one responded. One of our neighbours then drove to the station. “They eventually came to extinguish the fire, but it was too little too late. We had already lost everything,” he said. “We don’t know what could have caused the fire.” Sgt. Mmako Mophiring, a police spokesperson, confirmed the incident and added that a case of arson had been registered.

Passengers escape with their lives } Tladi Moloi HARRISMITH. – Theresa Tshabalala (56) and a 17-year-old boy of the New Horizon College in Harrismith are still under the care of the nurses in the Mediclinic Hoogland in Bethlehem. They are two of the 52 people who escaped with their lives when a Maluti Bus, which was travelling from Qwaqwa to Harrismith, overturned about 20 km from Harrismith on the R712 Road on Saturday morning. According to Karien Collett, the patient experience manager at the Mediclinic Hoogland, Tshabalala is in the critical-care unit, but her condition is stable. “She has a rib fracture and her lung is injured,” Collett said. She said eight of the 12 people brought to the hospital had been sent home after they had been treated for light injuries and added that four had been admitted. “Two of those four were later released and that brought us to the two who are still with us,” she said. A burst right front tyre allegedly caused the accident. On board the bus were 31 learners of the New Horizon College in Harrismith who were on their way to attend classes. The other passengers were 20 commuters on their way to work. The bus driver was also injured. According to the police, all the commuters sustained light to serious injuries. They were taken to three hospitals – the Mofumahadi Manapo Mopeli Regional Hospital, the Thebe District Hospital and the Mediclinic Hoogland in Bethlehem – for treatment. According to Sgt. Mmako Mophiring, the police spokesperson, the Maluti Bus left the Setsing terminal at approximately 07:00.
WARRANT OFFICERS Benjamin Kotze (left) and Mbuyiselwa “Bushy” Radebe investigate the scene where a Maluti Bus overturned on its way to Harrismith from Qwaqwa, injuring 52 people. “At about 08:00 the bus’s front tyre burst and it left the road, entering a nearby farm land where it overturned and came to a halt,” Mophiring said. “The driver (35), from Tshiame near
Harrismith, and all the passengers sustained minor or serious injuries and were rushed to the various hospitals with different ambulance services.” He said some of the passengers had been
discharged hours later after receiving treatment. “The police are investigating a case of reckless and negligent driving,” Mophiring said.
Covenant fills void REV. THEUNIS BOTHA, leader of the Christian Democratic Party (CDP): THE Christian Democratic Party (CDP) welcomes the government’s ratification of the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (ICESCR). This covenant, as we see it, prohibits discrimination of any kind on the basis of, for instance, race. As government has been using a limitation in the Constitution where only “unfair discrimination” is prohibited for affirmative action, it seems as though they are now applying the “sunset” principle for affirmative action and related matters, such as BEE and the application of national quotas. The covenant also addresses another void in the Constitution, namely that South Africans have the constitutional right to strike, but not to work. The CDP feels that it is important that this void is filled and that people who want to work, should now have proper redress should they take action against strikers preventing them from working. Whether government will apply the
new law, or even realised what they have ratified, even though it took 21 years to ratify the covenant after the government of Pres. Nelson Mandela had signed it, needs to be seen.

All is not lost for matrics
MANY of last year’s matriculants now find themselves in a situation where their plans to study towards a degree this year were thwarted by marks which didn’t allow them to make the cut. But an education expert says that there is still a way for those who remain determined to study towards a bachelor’s degree: that of pursuing a higher certificate, which will allow them to take the next step without having to repeat their matric. Dr Anne-Ka van den Hoek, academic manager at the Independent Institute of Education, South Africa’s largest and most accredited private higher education institution, says a higher certificate is a great option for these prospective students. “A higher certificate in Business Principles and Practice, a higher certificate in IT in Support Services or a higher certificate in Events Management, for instance,
will give students access to a BCom, a Bachelor of IT in Business Systems, or BA the year after completion. “And the good news is that the higher certificate is available to anyone who only achieved an HC pass in their National Senior Certificate. “So you do not have to give up your degree dreams. But the key is to fully engage with your higher certificate, so that you can develop some of the key skills you may have been lacking that resulted in you not achieving a bachelor’s pass to start with.” Van den Hoek says it is important that matriculants check that the institution they register with for a higher certificate, supports all students with focused academic literacy modules and a full year programme designed to bridge the gap between school and higher education. She says that higher certificates
‘It may take you a little bit longer to get there, but the experi ence and ultimate achievement will be well worth it.’ Dr AnneKa van den Hoek have replaced many foundation programmes, as they provide students with an opportunity to gain a full qualification while at the same time mastering those essential skills needed for higher education success – broadly known as academic literacies. “These range from how to engage successfully with academic material, to how to review information and present it
appropriately with the level of synthesis required for successful academic study,” she says. But she also warns that, while all degrees at public and private higher education institutions are subject to the same quality assu-rance requirements, they are not all alike. “Students should not only look at entrance requirements, but also at the curriculum and the alignment of that curriculum with their future career aspirations. This is particularly important for those degrees that can be quite generic, such as a BCom or a BA. “A focus on strategic management, for instance, raises the bar on one’s study of business management and differentiates graduates. “And becoming a lawyer is not the only career path to follow with a degree with a legal focus. The integration of legal subjects with business management in a BCom degree forms a solid basis for a
career in corporate governance or leadership. “Corporate communication, on the other hand, is an entire professional field that encompasses the traditional disciplines of communication and public relations, but takes them to the level required in the modern corporate world that includes stakeholder management.” Van den Hoek says that those students who were not accepted at the institution of their choice, didn’t gain a bachelor’s pass, or who need to strengthen their academic abilities before studying for a degree, will all do well to consider the higher certificate route. “It may take you a little bit longer to get there, but the experience and ultimate achievement will be well worth it, and will set you on the road to the career you’ve dreamed of but deemed out of reach.”
Soccer has to be cherished

EVERYONE has those special things they adore. Some love cars, houses, clothes or computers to mention but a few. But I know there are those who love football like I do. While I grew up in the dusty streets of Bohlokong, Bethlehem, there was only one thing that made me happy, and that was soccer. I am sure you will agree with me when I say our struggle heroes were watching soccer to relieve their stress. Yes, football can be heart-breaking at times. Surely there are some nail-biting moments, but I still love it. Back in those days on a Wednesday I would rush to the stadium after school to watch Comprehensive and Thabo

The players on the pitch would be under pressure, but would give their utmost for a good result at the end of 90 minutes.

School soccer was interesting to watch back then. I want to challenge you. Bring back the excitement. We still have Papiki and Molefe. Unfortunately, we have lost Super, may his soul rest in peace. But we have the likes of
Mthimkulu and Masoa of Ntsu Secondary. I am referring to the fantastic coaches whose football knowledge is unbelievable and has borne fruit for the schools. We also have the young Sthembiso Mugemezulu who was the assistant coach to Molefe when the Bodikela u.14 team came third in the McDonald’s Schools Cup which was held in Benoni. He is a future local coach, that one. He reminds me of Super. I know there are passionate people who love football like Mphati Maseru, the South African Football Association (Safa) Thabo Mofutsanyana Region’s deputy president, and July Gama who can join in bringing back the excitement to school soccer.

Sundowns talent astounding
MAMELODI SUNDOWNS are blessed with so much talent that their players out on loan could form a team capable of challenging the league title. KickOff.com’s Zola Doda picked a Sundowns Loan XI (3-4-3). Goalkeeper: Glenn Verbauwhede – The Belgian goalkeeper hasn’t had much joy since joining Sundowns in January 2013. At Chloorkop the 29-year-old failed to topple Kennedy Mweene for a place in the starting line-up and is currently at Free State Stars where he is, reportedly, unhappy.
Defenders: Rashid Sumaila – The highly-rated Ghanaian international joined Sundowns and formed a formidable partnership with Alje Schut at the heart of the defence. Since the signing of Thabo Nthethe of Bloemfontein Celtic, Sumaila struggled to win a place in the starting line-up, but that didn’t stop Ghana from selecting him for the 2014 World Cup finals in Brazil. He is in Kuwait where he is on loan at Al Qadsia SC.
Kwanda Mngonyama – After spending one season on loan at Bidvest Wits where he helped the Students reach the 2014 Nedbank Cup Final, the 21-year-old is now with Maritzburg United and his performance has already seen him get selected to Bafana Bafana.
Ntuthuko Mabaso – Mabaso came through the Sundowns ranks alongside the likes of Keagan Dolly, but has been unable to hold down a regular place. The right-back spent last season at Mpumalanga Black Aces and is now at Maritzburg United. Midfielders: Dove Wome – The Togolese international can arguably hold a regular place at any PSL club. He joined Sundowns from Free State Stars last season and became an instant hit. Wome’s passes and ability to link forward players with midfield helped Sundowns win the league last season, but he left the club to join SuperSport United this season. Wome’s influence at United is already clear as he helped Matsatsantsa win the Telkom Knockout. Thamsanqa Sangweni – Sangweni was
considered a rising star during his days with AmaZulu, but he joined Sundowns and ended up spending much time on the bench. Since joining Chippa United on loan he has proved his worth and has been rewarded with a place at the 2015 African Nations Cup. Keagan Dolly – Dolly came through Sundowns’ development ranks before he was lost to Ajax Cape Town. But the attacking midfielder was bought back by Sundowns. He was in Shakes Mashaba’s squad, but injuries scuppered his progress.
Mukuka Mulenga – The Zambian international came to Sundowns rated as one of the best players to come out of his country. But injuries saw Mulenga spend over six months out and he was eventually sent on loan to Bloemfontein Celtic. Forwards Mogakolodi Ngele – The Botswana international was signed by Sundowns at the beginning of the campaign from Platinum Stars and was parked at Dikwena for another season. When not troubled by injuries, the attacking player can cause havoc for local defenders. In 2013 he helped
Stars win the MTN8 and Telkom Knockout.
Bongani Ntuli – Golden Arrows’ relegation saw them lose their best player to Sundowns. As is the case with many, Ntuli has struggled to break into the Downs XI and is now currently at AmaZulu. Tiyani Mabunda – At Black Leopards Mabunda formed a deadly partnership with Rodney Ramagalela, but when he joined star-studded Downs it was clear that he was going to become a squad player. But he did make his mark even though he spent more time making substitute appearances and the loan to Free State Stars will benefit him. Substitutes Doctor Mampuru, Musa Nyatama and Siyabonga Shai. ) Where do you think this Sundowns Loan XI would finish in the PSL?
