parks are expected to fly in the Legislature today (Thursday) when the Democratic Alliance (DA) is scheduled to re-introduce a no confidence motion against Limpopo Premier Cassel Mathale following new revelations of alleged travel allowance abuse involving chartered helicopter flights. “The latest round of R82 000 spending on charted flights comes after Premier Mathale spent R641 410 on travel claims in the 2011/12 financial year. This was revealed by the DA’s questions in the Legislature’s public accounts committee late last year,” stated DA Limpopo Legislature Caucus Leader Desiree van der Walt in a media release received at the time of going to press. She said the DA would make a formal appeal to Speaker Rudolph Phala today to review his refusal to allow a DA motion of no confidence against Mathale to be debated last month. “According to media reports, Premier Mathale used taxpayers’ money to rent a helicopter for a trip between Polokwane and Musina in January at an estimated cost of R82 000. “In fact, the DA can confirm that Premier Mathale has been abusing his powers to take chartered helicopter flights since as early as 2011.” She continued stating: “The DA witnessed this abuse first-hand during Chief Kgoshi Maleboho’s inauguration ceremony on 14 May 2011 where Premier Mathale arrived in a helicopter instead of using state vehicles to attend the event.” Van der Walt labelled Mathale as a serial abuser of the law who cared very little about the need to use public funds for basic service delivery in Limpopo instead. “The money Premier Mathale blows on helicopter flights could have been used to purchase textbooks, increase norms and standards funds to schools or provide water and proper sanitation for the citizens of Limpopo.” She expressed conviction that the Speaker

now had no choice but to allow the no confidence debate to remove Mathale in the light of ongoing abuses. In response to an article in a daily newspaper on the matter, Head of Provincial Government Communications Tebatso Mabitsela labelled it another malicious article attempting to assassinate the character of the Premier in an open letter to the publication. The article, he said, was misleading and incorrect. “The Star repeats its unfounded allegation that “[the] official cars were parked – so that the Premier could use his private car and claim huge sums...his office flouted the policy on the use of official vehicle. It had disposed of his official car...before it reached 120 000km, or five years.” He continued saying it should be noted that the Office of the Premier was on record disputing the “ridiculous allegations” by the publication. It was ludicrous that the official vehicle was parked so that huge sums could be claimed and the vehicle in question was withdrawn as an official vehicle due to numerous mechanical damages and had travelled beyond 120 000 at the time it was disposed, according to Mabitsela. He said the newspaper further repeated its incorrect allegation that “the Premier [used] R111 000 of the taxpayers’ money to attend the Cape Town Jazz Festival, in apparent violation of the Ministerial Handbook, which justified entertainment only on official duties”. Accor-ding to him the Premier honoured a long standing official invitation when he embarked on the trip. He raised the opinion that it was incorrect and gross misrepresentation of facts to allege that he used state funds to pay for his stay in Cape Town subsequent to his official engagements. “Financial records show abundantly clear that the Premier paid for his accommodation in Cape Town notwithstanding the misleading allegations made by The Star previously and again today.” “On the use of helicopters, the Limpopo provincial government procured the services of a helicopter for the Premier out of necessity

for

and to suggest that it is wasteful is as disingenuous as it is outrageous.” He added it was absurd to expect that the Premier should fail to honour his obligations to serve the people of Limpopo by, among other things, not attending important occasions with various stakeholders. He continued saying that the newspaper conveniently obscured the fact that the helicopter was used during the floods that ravaged Limpopo during that time. “One wonders how the families which were adversely affected by the floods feel about The Star’s reportage. It insinuates that it was wasteful for the Premier to attend to their adversity! Ironically, this reportage is said to be in the public’s interest.” Referring to the publication alleging that the government spent R60 000 to rent a helicopter for a distance of 161km, which was deemed to be wasteful expenditure, he said the Premier had to officially open the Provincial House of Traditional Leaders at Ga-Mashashane, an occasion that was considered important because in line with the Constitution, the Premier had a duty to enhance the principle of Cooperative Governance and Intergovernmental Relations. He continued stating that it should be noted that the opening of the Provincial House of Traditional Leaders was scheduled to start at 10:00 that morning. Subsequently, the Premier had to attend the monthly Executive Public Participation Programme (Exco PPP) at Bungeni Village which started at 11:00 the same morning, he pointed out. The Exco PPP was designed to create a platform for community members to interact with Exco on service delivery matters, he said. Given the delight that was displayed by ordinary members of the public when the Premier eventually joined the community meeting, he said one wondered how they would feel about the reportage. “The Star made numerous allegations which in my view do not have to be dignified with a response but suffice to say the plot to pour scorn on the Premier has been exposed!” he concluded.

The case against the five Police officers accused of beating a Nigerian citizen to death was postponed by the Polokwane Magistrate’s Court to tomorrow (Friday) when the bail application is set to be finalised. Lt Boitumelo Ramahlala, three constables, Mashiba Mathata, Collins Sekoati, Thabo Mabotja and Capt Clement Tsotsane allegedly beat Mr Onyechiabi Iwuaka to death on 21 May after he was

@sktheatres

arrested at a friend’s house. His friend escaped the alleged assault. The accused allegedly stopped on the way to the Police station to buy water because Iwuaka was bleeding from his ears. An ambulance was supposedly called after he died. During their previous appearance the court also heard that Iwuaka was simply visiting his cousin and should not have been arrested. Although a stolen cell phone had been traced to the house, it was allegedly not in Iwuaka’s possession.

The Provincial Initiation Schools Task Team has sanctioned 142 initiation schools for the 2013 Koma season and is hoping for an incident free season, according the the team’s Chairperson, Kgoshi Malesela Dikgale who spoke during the official opening ceremony of the season on Friday. “Last year five deaths were reported by the various initiation schools in the province. That did not sit well with us so this season we are going all out to ensure that

we have an incident free period. In that regard we have roped in the Department of Health and Social Development as well as the South African Police Service to assist us in monitoring all the initiation schools,” Dikgale said. Although the turnout is low due to the fact that academic schools have not yet closed, Dikgale is adamant that the number will increase from next week. “In fact we are happy with the low turnout. This is a clear indication that despite the cultural practise, parents prioritise education more than anything else,” he said.

Lim se eerste Astrobaan binne maande ’n realiteit RC MYBURGH >>rc.observer@gmail.com

ie Hoërskool Pietersburg (PHS) se droom om die provinsie se eerste Astrohokkiebaan te bou word binnekort ‘n werklikheid. Grondwerk het Dinsdag op die skoolterrein begin het toe Jakarandabome om die D-hokkieveld tussen Dorp- en Voortrekkerstraat afgekap en mure afgebreek is. “Jakarandabome is uitheems. Ons het reeds ‘n ooreenkoms met ‘n myn wat dié bome gratis verwyder en die hout gebruik. Dié bome se wortelstelsels en blare kan die nuwe baan verniel en moes verwyder word,” sê PHS-skoolhoof, mnr Willie Shoeman. Hy sê verder die skool het reeds ‘n deposito van R2,25 miljoen betaal en kontrakteurs sal op 1 Julie met konstruksie begin. “Die Astrobaan het nou realiteit geword, maar ons het steeds die ondersteuning van die gemeenskap nodig om aaneenlopende konstruksie te

verseker. Ons sal nog gereeld geldinsamelings hou om die konstruksie te befonds.” Die baan sal waarskynlik teen die einde van September voltooi wees. Die projekbestuurder, mnr Louis Scott het gesê die kontrakteurs sou gister (Woensdag) vir die eerste keer die terrein besoek. “Dit is ‘n groot taak om die grondwerk in orde te kry omdat die kontrakteurs ook net die beste produkte van internasionale gehalte gebruik.” Schoeman het gesê verskeie toernooie sal in die toekoms op die baan aangebied word. Die skool sal ook onderhandel om internasionale wedstryde en moontlik toernooie aan te bied. Omdat PHS bekend is vir sy hokkiespanne se uitnemende prestasies is ‘n gesamentlike besluit in Julie verlede jaar geneem om met die projek voort te gaan omdat veral spelers in die NuPower/Tuksreeks waar daar slegs op dié bane gespeel word, benadeel word. “Die Astrobaan sou nie moontlik gewees het sonder die goedhartige ondersteuning van die skool se ouers, oudleerders, besighede,

donateurs en elke persoon wat lief is vir hokkie nie. Ons het wel nog ‘n lang pad om te stap voordat die baan voltooi is en borge is welkom om betrokke te raak,” sê Schoeman. Die volgende borgskappe is beskikbaar: Borg van R500 000 of meer- die veld sal vir vyf jaar na die borg vernoem word. Korporatiewe borge van meer as R100 000die maatskappy se advertensie word drie jaar by veld opgesit. Hoofborge beloop van R50 000 tot R100 000 - ‘n advertensie word vir 18 maande by die veld opgesit. Borge tussen R20 000 en R50 000 - logo en naam sal op ‘n gesamentlike bord

All eleven objections to the proposed Motor City project have been dealt with, the Executive Mayor of Polokwane, Cllr Freddy Greaver declared in his State of the City address last week. The controversial Motor City project by the Polokwane Municipality is set to get the go-ahead in the 2013/14 financial year. Environmental issues were among the initial objections raised about the project. At the start of the tender process, allegations were made that the company appointed by the municipality to develop the site had been registered only ten days before the tender was advertised.

The proposed Motor City development will be located adjacent to the current Thornhill Shopping Centre on the vacant land between Ster Park and the shopping centre. According to Greaver, the proposed development has the potential to create employment opportunities and to further generate a sustainable income for the city. Greaver went on to say that the completed Motor City project will remain the ownership of the Polokwane Municipality and is one of the best ever deals negotiated by the municipality. “Once it has been completed, the entire project has the potential to generate approximately R500 million per annum in revenue,” Greaver

explained. The Democratic Alliance (DA) has also given the project the green light after expressing their initial reservations about the validity of the negotiations around the project. DA Councillor for the Polokwane Municipality, Mr Frank Haas says the DA has always considered the Motor City development as a good idea as long as all the necessary negotiations were done according to the book and are not a contravention of the municipal by-laws. “After receiving allegations of irregular procedures being followed during the initial discussions for the project, the DA intervened, but now that there are no further objections the DA has given the project the goahead,” said Haas.

A new tendency among criminals seems to be to rape their female victims first before robbing them. The latest incident of this nature occurred in Hoog Street on Saturday morning when an elderly woman (74) was raped before being robbed. The rate at which these crimes are committed is also on the increase with cases recently reported to have happened in Potgieter Avenue, Suid Street, Eduan Park and Welgelegen.

Makhado coal project to produce 12,6 mil tonnes per annum for 16 years Coal of Africa Limited yesterday announced the results of a feasibility study at its flagship Makhado coking coal project in a JSE Sens report. Makhado is Coal’s anchor project in the Soutpansberg coalfield with an estimated gross tonnes in the order of 8 billion. Highlights of the feasibility study include • 12,6 million tonnes per annum Run of Mine which is expected to produce 2,3 million tonnes per annum (tpa) of hard coking coal and 3,2 million tpa of thermal coal. • Favourable Internal Rate of Return of 30,1% (unleveraged) and a Net Present Value of R6,79 billion (US$697m) at a real discount rate of 8%. • Mineable tonnes in-situ (MTIS) of 344,8 million tonnes. • 16 year Life of Mine (LOM) at a mine average gate cost of R865 (US$88,71) per saleable hard coking coal tonne (after thermal coal by- product credit). • Capital expenditure of R3,96 billion (US$406,3m) including contingency. • Non-discounted peak funding requirement is R4,2 billion (US$432,8m).

Women from neighbourhoods previously known to be peaceful, quiet and safe are now living in fear as these heinous crimes continue. Polokwane Police Spokesperson, Capt Ntobeng Phala confirmed that at 05:00 on Saturday a man gained entry to the home of an elderly couple in Hoog Street. “The intruder immediately grabbed the man (84), tied him up and locked him in the spare bedroom. He then repeatedly raped the woman before fleeing the scene with R500 and two cell phones,” Phala said. Polokwane Observer was informed that the victim was taken to Mankweng Hospital but had to be brought back as the Police did not want to follow the ambulance to take a statement. Phala denied the allegation and said members of the Gender Based Violence and Child Abuse Unit of the Police took the victim to Mankweng Hospital in a Police vehicle and took her statement there.

Eer betoon aan slagoffers van plaasaanvalle MARIËTTE SNYDER >> mariette.observer@gmail.com Die jaarlikse eerbetoonseremonie by die Witkruismonument langs die N1-Suid hoofweg ter nagedagtenis aan diegene wat sedert 1992 in plaasaanvalle omgekom het, het Maandag plaasgevind. Naasbestaandes het kranse by die honderde metaalkruise gelê en mnr Ernst Roets, adjunk uitvoerende hoof van AfriForum het as geleentheidspreker opgetree. Die monument is op 16 Junie 2004 opgerig. Mnr Johan Willemse skakelbeampte van

die bestuur sê ‘n volledige bestuur is na dié byeenkoms saamgestel en lede verbonde aan AfriForum, die Transvaalse Landbou-unie (TLU), Kraal Uitgewers sowel as van die plaaslike gemeenskap, sal voortaan die onderhoud van die monument bestuur. Die bestuur samel geld in om die monument ‘n meer permanente struktuur te gee en beplan om ‘n muur te bou waarop die naam van die monument aangebring word. Aan die agterkant van die muur sal plek gemaak word vir nisse vir slagoffers. Vir meer besonderhede of om ‘n finansiële bydraes te maak, kan Willemse by 015 297 5922 of 072 197 3134 geskakel word.

Labour dept and organised labour join hands HERBERT RACHUENE >>herbert@mailbox.co.za The recent special partnership between the Department of Labour and Organised Labour around specific areas of common interest will surely bring good times for workers in South Africa. This is according to Department of Labour Spokesperson, Mr Johannes Mokou. This partnership will be put to work during a hard-hitting joint inspection in the hospitality sector scheduled for 22 to 26 July in Limpopo, Mpumalanga, North-West, KwaZulu-Natal as well as the Western Cape. “The primary aim of this framework is to spell out areas of cooperation and also define roles and responsibilities of government and organised labour. This will be done entirely

with the aim of eliminating non-compliance with labour legislations and eradicate the current most horrible plight of vulnerable workers in the country,” Mokou was quoted in a press statement released on Wednesday (yesterday). The statement further read that in the province for an example, the scheduled partnership will take shape in a form of already arranged inspections where the department’s inspectorate, together with the provincial leadership from organised labour will attend to one employer after another in the sector. It further stated that during inspections the focus will be on compliance with legislation such as the Occupational Health and Safety Act, Employment Equity Act the requirements of the Basic Conditions of Employment Act.

‘Regering skep klimaat vir eise’ T

LU SA is hoogs ontsteld oor vakbonde se voorgestelde openbare aksie om grondoordrag te bespoedig. “Die land lek nog sy wonde van die arbeidsonrus in die mynbedryf en die gepaardgaande rand wat byna rekordlaagtes beleef het, of daar is weer dreigende arbeidsonrus in die landbousektor,” sê TLU SA se hoofbestuurder, mnr Bennie van Zyl. “Die vakbonde word boonop deur president Jacob Zuma gesteun wat in sy repliek op sy begrotingsdebat gesê het grond moet vinniger vanaf dié wat grond afstaan aan dié wat grond wil hê oorgedra word. Daarmee skep hy ’n ondersteunende klimaat vir die vakbonde se radikale eise en stuur ’n boodskap uit dat die land se landbouers geen simpatie of hulp moet verwag as die arbeidsoptrede in onrus ontaard nie. Boonop word dit tyd dat die regering hand in eie boesem steek, en die voorbeeld stel deur die miljoene hektaar onbenutte grond wat hy in sy besit het, oor te dra aan die grondhongeriges,” sê Van Zyl. “Daar is ’n politieke agenda agter die vakbonde, Numsa en Fawu se beoogde aksie.

Numsa het in wese niks met die landboubedryf te make nie want dit is die metaalwerkersvakbond. Nietemin is sy president, Cedric Gina revolusionêr uitgesproke oor ongegronde en ongetoetste bewerings oor vermeende grondvergrype, diefstal en gewelddadige grondonteienings wat in die verlede sou plaasgevind het.” Van Zyl wys daarop dat die betrokke vakbonde artikel 25 van die grondwet in hulle visier het. “Die regering sal nou baie vinnig en duidelik moet sê waar hy staan ten opsigte van die grondwet en of hy dit oorweeg om enige verandering aan te bring ten einde onteiening sonder vergoeding moontlik te maak. Die regering moet die grondwet respekteer en handhaaf of toegee aan druk van die vakbonde.” Intussen het die organisasie boere gemaan om hulle veiligheidsmaatreëls te verskerp in die lig van die dreigende arbeidsoptrede deur vakbonde en om onverdraagsaam te wees teen oproer of vandalisme wat lewe of eiendom bedreig. “Ons het as wetsgehoorsame burgers ook regte en ons het ook die reg om daardie regte te beskerm,” meen hy.

GPF waarsku oor vullisverbranding RC MYBURGH >>rc.observer@gmail.com Die Doornbult Gemeenskapspolisiëringsforum (GPF) het inwoners op hoewes teen die gevare van vullisverbranding gewaarsku en gesê persone wat skuldig bevind word kan ‘n boete of selfs tronkstraf opgelê word. In ‘n persverklaring het die GPF dit duidelik gemaak dat vullisverbranding onwettig is en veldbrande kan veroorsaak. “Dit is winter en die veld is droog. Oortreders kan aanspreeklik gehou word vir skade wat aan bure se hoewes aangerig word. Boetes van R1 500 word vir eerste en tweede oortreders gehef

en tronkstraf kan selfs aan ‘n derde oortreder opgelê word,” lees die verklaring. Munisipale woordvoervoerder, me Noko Lebea het die boetes en moontlikheid van tronkstraf bevestig. “Veldbrande is volop in die winter en inwoners van die stad sowel as hoewes moet nie vullis verbrand nie omdat dit groot skade kan aanrig en selfs lewens eis. Vullis moet eerder na die stortingsterrein geneem word.” Die GPF sê hoewe-eienaars kan mnr Amos Sethole by 082 811 6789 kontak om vullis teen ‘n minimale maandelikse bedrag te verwyder. Oortreders kan by 015 290 2403 gerapporteer word.

The Department of Agriculture will host World Day to Combat Desertification (WDCD) at Ga-Kgatla Sports ground in the Blouberg area tomorrow (Friday). The theme of this year’s worldwide celebration is “Drought and water scarcity”. A statement released by the department states that Limpopo is among the country’s provinces most affected by land degradation

and therefore more public awareness should be created. Key issues to be highlighted include the sustainable use of soil and water in order to meet the needs of present and future generations; the planting of trees in degraded areas; urging communities to protect wetlands and springs and the promotion of stakeholder integration for environmental sustainability. Mr Jacob Marule, MEC for Agriculture is expected to deliver the keynote address.

Stadium in top condition to host Craven Week RC Myburgh >>rc.observer@gmail.com All eyes will be on Polokwane from 7 to 13 July when the City of Stars hosts the 50th u.18 Craven Week merely a week after the South African Majorette and Cheerleading Association’s (Samca) 37th National Championships. Polokwane Observer paid a visit to the old Peter Mokaba Stadium to verify the readiness of the venue that will host both events. The stadium is in top condition and Polokwane has every reason to look forward to receiving the large contingent of visitors and participants expected. “We strived towards creating a positive

image not only for visitors to the city but to the residents as well by preparing the stadium well ahead of the events,” Polokwane Municipal Spokesperson, Ms Noko Lebea said. She added that the municipality is busy with the final touches to the stadium. “In the week to come the municipality still has to mount the scoreboard, rugby posts and flags,” she said. All broken seats on the pavilion were also replaced. During the events the municipality will also maintain the cleaning services to get the stadium ready for the following day. “We are convinced that we will not let Polokwane down. We will do everything in our power to host both events successfully,” Lebea stated.

George Skordi passes away Well-known Polokwane resident and “patriarch of the local Greek community” George Skordi passed away over the weekend after a short illness. He was 88 years old. Skordi was born in Kormakitis in Cyprus and immigrated to South Africa in 1947, according to his family. He lived in Polokwane for the past 46 years. It took Skordi three months to sail from Cyprus to South Africa and he arrived with less than 10 pounds in his pocket, stated his family. However, within a few years he had his own business, had already bought his first home and was well on his way to becoming successful. When he moved to Polokwane he took over as the local bookmaker and he will be remembered as one of the longest operating bookmakers in the province, they said. Skordi never forgot his native Greek Island and would make regular trips to see his family and friends there. The local Greek community all loved him and considered him a father

figure, usually referring to him as ‘Papou’, the Greek word for grandpa. His generous hospitality to family and friends was legendary and visitors from across South Africa were always treated to home cooked meals and Greek delights while listening to his wonderful stories He is survived by his wife, Eftychia, children Marianna, Sophia and Angelo, ten grandchildren and a newly born great grandchild. A memorial service will be held tomorrow (Friday) at the Roman Catholic Cathedral on the corner of Biccard and Thabo Mbeki streets at 11:00. The family requested that in lieu of flowers donations be made to Cansa. Banking details are as follows: Photo: Supplied Absa account number The late Mr George 1020040901. Skordi.

Zeelie sterf net na aftrede Mariëtte Snyder >> mariette.observer@gmail.com

“My pa se sukses word aan sy goeie mensekennis, deursettingsvermoë en intelligensie toegeskryf. En hy het die mooiste hande gehad.” So het mnr Johan Zeelie, seun van mnr Martin Zeelie (65), Dinsdag oor sy pa gesels wat Sondag in Mediclinic Limpopo oorlede is nadat hy van Vrydagmiddag af nie lekker gevoel het nie. Sy afskeidsfunksie as uittredende takbestuurder van Buco was net ‘n week vroeër. Martin het 33 jaar gelede in Potchefstroom in die boubedryf in verskillende bestuurs- en topbestuursposte begin werk. Hy was 25 jaar gelede een van die stigterslede van Builders Market (Buco vanaf Oktober 2011). In Februarie 2000 het hy en sy vrou, Annetjie, na Polokwane verhuis waar hy hoofbestuurslid van Builders Market, Pietersburg was. “Oor jare het hy groot sukses behaal danksy ‘n bekwame span werknemers,” sê Johan verder wat die afgelope 16 jaar sy aan sy saam met sy pa gewerk het. In Julie 2012 het Martin amptelik afgetree maar sy kontrak is sesmaandeliks hernu tot die nuwe bestuurder, mnr Marten Gobey, vroeër die maand aangestel is. Martin en Annatjie se huis in die stad is ‘n maand gelede in die mark gesit omdat hulle beplan het om ‘n aftreeplek by Die Oog Aftree Landgoed naby Mookgophong te koop en naby

die natuur tussen die bokke te bly. “My pa was my held en ek kon hom om my pinkie draai. Hy’t my leer skaak speel en was ‘n gedugte Scrabble-opponent. Gelukkig het hulle Januarie vanjaar vir ‘n maand by ons kom kuier,” sê sy dogter, Anine Conradie, wat saam met haar gesin in Nieu-Seeland woon en Maandag na Suid-Afrika gevlieg het vir haar pa se begrafnis. Annatjie sê: “Ek is dankbaar dat ek 44 jaar met hom getroud kon wees. Ek sal hom altyd onthou vir sy liefde en versorging. Ek het totale berusting want ek weet waar hy is.” Die personeel van Buco Polokwane sê hulle neem met groot verdriet afskeid van Zeelie wat die afgelope 13 jaar hul bestuurder was. “Hy gaan ‘n groot leemte in ons lewens laat. Hy was ‘n leier wat ons deur moeilike én wonderlike tye gelei het. Ons wens sy familie sterkte toe.” Benewens sy vrou en kinders laat hy vyf kleinkinders, Jean, Heinrich, Martin jnr, Zoë en Cléo na. Die begrafnis vind môre (Vrydag) om 11:00 vanuit die AGS Taberna Dei, Moederkampus, h/v Jorissenstraat en Potgieterlaan plaas. Mnr Martin Zeelie is Sondagoggend na ‘n kort siekbed oorlede.

Young people must take control of their safety

HERBERT RACHUENE >>herbert@mailbox.co.za

Youngsters must take control of their safety and with June being Youth Month it provides an opportunity to not only celebrate being young, but to focus on all things youth-related including safety and lifestyle. This is the message from Mr Mike Kidson, Managing Director of ADT Northern Region. “Safety is a priority and must be top of mind for everyone, particularly teenagers and young adults who are also vulnerable to crime,” Kidson said. He added that knowing and applying basic safety can show youngsters that staying safe can be easy. He focused on social media and the internet that made communication faster and more fun, but it also makes it easier for predators to approach vulnerable teens. “It is important therefore that youngsters never include personal information on social media forums, blogs or websites, do not agree to meet online contacts in person, block

The donation was part of Lekganyane’s social outreach programme aimed at improving and touching the lives of the needy. “I am one of those people who believe that sharing is caring. May was Child Protection Month and I thought I should do something to assist in protecting these children from hunger and the cold weather,” Lekganyane said. Lekganyane was accompanied by relatives and friends who spent time with the children and helped them with academic work and extramural activities.

anyone who makes you feel uneasy, think about the information you post online and do not post comments and most of all, get the ok from your parents before you download content or shop online,” Kidson cautioned. The drug problem in South Africa is extremely serious and he said that the reality is that young adults will most likely be exposed to drugs, in some form, in their teen years. “Understanding the potential consequences can go a long way to discouraging the experimentation and use of drugs amongst young people. Warn young adults about drug use and encourage them to stand strong against peer and adult pressure,” Kidson advised About staying safe he advised that youngsters go out in a group and stick with your friends, never go anywhere with or accept a drink from a stranger, make sure you have a safe ride home with a designated driver and ensure your cell phone is always on and call home if you find yourself in an uncomfortable situation.

Non-disclosure lands councillor in hot water >> Lack of confidence in the municipality which takes a long time to be restored >> Faces possible removal from office WARREN BLUNT >>warrenb.observer@gmail.com

olemole Municipality Councillor Ben Malebatsa is under investigation by the municipality for allegedly illegally conducting business with the municipality without declaring his business interests and getting prior consent from the council. When contacted by Polokwane Observer yesterday, Molemole Mayor, Cllr Pauline Makgato confirmed receipt of a letter from the Democratic Alliance (DA) alleging that Malebatsa is doing business illegally with the municipality. From documents in possession of Polokwane Observer, it is clear that Malebatsa and his wife are illegally doing business with the municipality. This action is in violation of the Code of Conduct for Councillors which stipulates that a councillor must disclose to the municipal council, or any committee of which that councillor is a member, any direct or indirect personal or private business interest that the councillor, or any spouse, partner or business associate of that councillor may have in any matter before the council or the committee. In addition, Malebatsa has also breached section 6.1 of the Code of Conduct in relation to personal gain which stipulates that a councillor may not use the privileges of councillor, or confidential information obtained in that position, for private gain or to improperly benefit

another person. The documentation also contains proof that Maly 4 Trading, a company registered in the names of Malebatsa and his wife, has received payment from the Molemole Municipality for delivering transport services to a ward committee meeting and a mayoral imbizo. More recently, the documents reveal, the company received payment of R1 800 for supplying a sound system for an IDP Consultative meeting. The DA has written a letter to Makgato about Malebatsa’s failure to disclose his business interests with the municipality. DA Councillor Calvin Matjee has formally requested that Makgato establish a special committee to investigate Malebatsa’s misconduct and to remove him from office with immediate effect. Matjee added that it is a concern for the DA that in this era of democratic dispensation councillors still take advantage of the poor. “By contravening the Code of Conduct for Councillors, Malebatsa is creating a lack of confidence in the municipality which takes a long time to be restored. If he is found guilty of misconduct he must be removed from office with immediate effect,” Matjee stated. Makgato said Malebatsa’s business interests with the municipality are currently under investigation by the municipality’s accounting officer. If any irregularities have occurred, further disciplinary action will be taken against the councillor under investigation, according to Makgato.

Volgens die bejaarde vrou, wat verkies om anoniem te bly, is dit nie die eerste keer dat haar man (75) drie keer op een dag in dieselfde ry moet sit om hul pille te kry nie. Elke keer wat hy voor in die ry kom, vra hulle hom om weer later terug te kom omdat hulle nie die medikasie het nie. Sy sê hulle moet vir ure staan omdat die stoele wat nog nie herstel is nie, so stukkend is dat mens nie jou lewe kan waag om daarop te sit nie. Nog ‘n probleem is die personeel wat

volgens haar bejaardes sleg behandel. “Dit is moeilik vir ons wat nie vlot Engels kan praat nie. Na ‘n lang gewag kan jy uiteindelik iemand sien en dan is jy nie eers seker of dit ‘n dokter is nie aangesien die persoon homself nie voorstel nie. Die persoon kan gewoonlik ook nie Afrikaans verstaan nie. As jy verduidelik waar jy pyn het is dit ook ‘n probleem om te verstaan wat jou makeer,” vertel sy. Sy voel dat die personeel daarop uit is om wit bejaardes sleg te behandel en so eintlik mediese sorg weier. Me Sne Gumede, woordvoerder van die departement van gesondheid sê hulle is jammer om van die klagtes te verneem en dat dit teen die departementele beleid is dat pasiënte, ongeag hul ras, sleg behandel word. Sy sê hulle sal die bewerings ondersoek.

Groblerstraat steeds ‘n gevaar, muni sloer

FOTO: RC MYBURGH

Die wrakstukke van ‘n voertuig wat verlede Saterdagaand deur die begraafplaasmuur in Groblerstraat gebars het, het onlangs nog op die toneel gelê. Volgens ‘n inwoner sloer die munisipaliteit al lank om die draai veiliger vir motoriste te maak. RC MYBURGH >>rc.observer@gmail.com Inwoners bekommer hulle al lank oor die draai aan die suidelike punt van Groblerstraat, naaste hoek Dahlstraat, naby die begraafplaas wat bekend is vir ongelukke waar motoriste gereeld deur die begraafplaasmuur ploeg. Verlede Saterdagaand omstreeks 23:15 het ‘n bestuurder van ‘n Volkswagen Golf vermoe-

delik beheer oor sy voertuig verloor en deur die muur gebars. Polokwane Observer het onlangs oor die moontlike oprigting van dreunstroke naby die begraafplaas berig, maar ‘n bekommerde inwoner wat daagliks die stad met Groblerstraat binnery sê die munisipaliteit sloer steeds met hul poging om motoriste meer bedag op die gevare van dié draai te maak. Die munisipale woordvoerder, mnr Matshidiso Mothapo stem duidelik saam dat dreunstroke die oplossing om die draai sal wees, “maar die munisipaliteit se goedgekeurde begroting vir die komende finansiële jaar is beperk omdat geld eerder aan die oprigting van spoedwalle elders in die stad spandeer sal word,” sê hy. Teen druktyd kon hy nie sê in watter strate spoedwalle opgerig gaan word nie, maar wel dat dit in strate is wat deur inwoners aangevra is. Hy sê die onus rus verder op elke motoris om by die spoedbeperking van 60 km/h in stedelike gebiede te hou. “Die meeste ongelukke om die draai word deur spoed of bestuurders wat bane verwissel sonder om te observeer, veroorsaak. Ons beveel aan dat bestuurders ten alle tye alle padreëls gehoorsaam.”

Hundreds of pupils miss mid-term examination June 20, 2013

OBSERVER

>> Department closes down school as result of its dilapidated and uninhabitable state CHESTER MAKANA >>makana.observer@gmail.com

he Limpopo Association of School Governing Bodies (LASGB) wants the Department of Education to provide temporary classrooms and arrange a special mid-term examination for learners of Khogonyane Primary School in Vhembe. The school’s 418 pupils failed to write midterm examination because the department closed it down as result of its dilapidated and uninhabitable state. The parents of the school said the department promise them mobile classrooms but failed to deliver. The school governing body (SGB) said it was not consulted when the department took the decision to close the school. LASGB Secretary, Mr Prince Phandavhudzi said they are disappointed that the department failed to resolve their problems. He said they are not welcoming the idea that the department did nothing and failed to provide temporary classrooms. The department finally closed the school after it emerged that there were very few pupils in school while the infrastructure was irreparable and thus posing danger to both educators and learners. “Their action is completely compromising teaching and learning for our children, and as result we are calling upon the Minister of

Basic Education Angie Motshekga to recall the administrator of the department with immediate effect,” Phandavhudzi said. “We condemn in the strongest possible terms the closure of the school, and we are calling upon the department to provide temporary classes with immediate effect,” added Phandavhudzi. “It is also the constitutional obligation of the department to provide infrastructure that is safe and clean. The glaring inadequacies in providing infrastructure are the cause of inevitable ‘deplorable’ quality teaching and learning,” he added. Phandavhudzi said the department should provide them with sufficient reasons why it failed to provide basic learning tools. LASGB is also concerned that the educators attached to the school are collecting their salaries while doing nothing. The organisation also expressed concern over the delay in redistribution of Norms and Standards for Schools Infrastructure. “The late payment of norms and standards funds impede the provision of quality learning and teaching. We therefore demand that the department must pay the norms and standard in advance, every year in one trench,” he said. Education spokesperson Pat Kgomo said the department is aware of the dilapidated condition of the school but that they blame the SGB for the closure of the school. “They told us we are closing the school until we build new classrooms, but it is difficult for us to put up new classrooms now, that’s why we are locating mobile classrooms for them,” Kgomo said.

Premier warns wayward outlet owners HERBERT RACHUENE >>herbert@mailbox.co.za Owners of liquor outlets who operate in close vicinity of schools and churches and who sell liquor to underage persons will be prosecuted. Premier Cassel Mathale made this announcement during the Provincial Youth Day celebrations at Mameriri Sports ground at GaSekgopo in Mopani on Sunday. “Those who sell outside their approved timeframes will face the full might of our justice system. We cannot allow greedy business persons to maximise their profits at the expense of our people,” warned Mathale. “As government, we will continue to regulate the liquor business and advocate for responsible habits. Our future will be doomed if our young people are victims of drugs and other substance abuse. As a result, drugs and other destructive substances must never be allowed to endanger the future of our young generation,” Mathale said. He also emphasised that selling drugs to any person, at any time or place is a criminal offence. “Our youth must work closely with law enforcement agencies, especially the Police to expose those who are selling drugs. Young

people should live a healthy lifestyle and refrain from falling of any temptation. Young people must also not be victims of teenage pregnancy. As youth, you must ensure that you enjoy the stages of life responsibility bearing in mind that every stage has its own difficulties. Teenage pregnancy is one of the difficulties that can be simply avoided,” Mathale told his audience. He further said the National Youth Development Agency (Nyda) must live up to its promise of creating hope for young people and assisting them to achieve their dreams. “Amongst others, the National Youth Development Agency has a mandate to champion the interests of young people and also provide assistance to them in order to succeed in life. So, it is incumbent upon them to ensure that young people are assisted to gain access to various funding programmes which are aimed at turning their plight for the better. The programmes the agency must speak directly to the needs of our youth and give meaning to their ideas. It must not be known by the privileged few, but it must be popular throughout every space of our society. Every young person in the rural areas must know about it and have access to its services,” Mathale said.

Trading is practiced daily all over the world, with trading houses or commodity exchanges in more than 20 countries. These exchanges are served by brokers and it is through this route that you can claim your share of the markets,” he added.

CRIME shorts Man caught for raping niece

A 50-year-old man from Mkhushane Nyakelang Village appeared in Namakgale Magistrate’s Court on Tuesday for allegedly raping his 9-yearold niece. He was to apply for bail. Police Spokesperson, Const Lucy Sekgotodi said the victim’s strange behaviour was noticed by a teacher at school. “The teacher informed the Police and they took her to the hospital where a doctor confirmed penetration,” she said.

Four up for rape and murder, bail denied

Messrs Temba Mathwala (31), Kulani Mkanzi (28), Tebogo Malatji (19) and Lucas Sekgodiale (24) were denied bail last Friday when they appeared in the Lulekani Magistrate’s Court on charges of rape and murder. They will appear again later. Provincial Police Spokesperson, Brig Hangwani Mulaudzi said the four men were arrested on 28 May for the alleged rape and murder of a 23-year-old woman at Majeje Village in Namakgale. The victim, on her way from a local tavern, was confronted by four men who allegedly

took turns raping her. They then purportedly strangled her before leaving her for dead. The deceased managed to identify one of the suspects before passing on.

Seven rhino poachers nabbed

Seven suspected rhino poachers will appear in the Makhado Magistrate’s Court again on 26 June on charges of possessing illegal firearms and ammunition and the attempted poaching of rhino after they were apprehended by Police last Tuesday. Provincial Police Spokesperson, Col Ronel Otto said members of the Anti Poaching Unit of the Organised Crime Unit in Limpopo followed up information about the possibility of a poaching incident and continuously monitored the movement of the suspects. “Police swooped down on alleged poachers at 10:00 last Tuesday just outside Alldays as they were about to enter a farm,” she said. During the arrest Police confiscated three vehicles, a hunting rifle that was fastened underneath one of the vehicles, an axe as well as ammunition. Three of the suspects are from Mozambique,

Two up for attempted murder and robbery

The Police in Mookgophong arrested two men for alleged attempted murder and common robbery on Thursday. They were due to appear in the Mookgophong Magistrate’s Court on Tuesday. According to Provincial Police Spokesperson, Brig Hangwani Mulaudzi Police acted on information from a community member who alerted them about two men who threw a man from a moving vehicle. Apparently the suspects dragged him into their vehicle again after noticing that people saw them. “Police chased the vehicle which the informant had identified and it was cornered along the N1 South near Modimolle. Police found the 26-year-old victim who was heavily drugged and could not even stand on his own and had bruises all over his face. Upon investigation Police uncovered that the man had asked for a lift from BelaBela to Tzaneen. He was allegedly offered a drink and could not remember anything after drinking it,” Mulaudzi said.The suspects allegedly robbed the victim of an undisclosed amount of money. The two, aged 27 and 44, are from Carousel View in Hammanskraal.

R499 per person sharing Offer valid until 30 Sept 2013 Excludes: Flights, car hire and meals

A suspected rhino poacher was shot and killed and another suspect arrested after a Police tracking team spent nearly a full day tracing down the suspects. Provincial Police Spokesperson, Col Ronel Otto said the incident took place last Saturday on the farm Cumberland when a worker who usually puts out feeding for the rhinos spotted strange tracks in the area. “Farmers, Police and trackers gathered and followed the tracks of what is suspected to be four poachers. The tracks were followed for more than 24 hours and two private helicopters were also assisting in the search,” she said. At approximately 11:00 on Sunday one of the suspects was spotted under a tree. “The suspect attempted to fire at one of the helicopters circling in the area and also fired shots in the direction of the tracking team. The team returned fire and the suspect was shot in the groin and died on the scene.” Police confiscated a .303 hunting rifle and ammunition as well as an axe. The serial number of the firearm was filed off and the origin of the weapon is still being investigated.

>> One of 12 contestants set to compete for multi-million prize >> Armed with real-life business experience in a man’s world YOLANDE NEL >>observer.yolande@gmail.com

hati Mashao is not your average girl next door. She is accustomed to grand-scale construction plant equipment of the same kind her fiveyear-old son normally plays with and owns big-boy tools generally operated on construction sites. Her journey as owner of a plant and tool hire company in Seshego has now taken her to greater heights with her inclusion in the SABC Big Break Legacy reality television show. Mashao is one of 12 finalists chosen from an initial round figure of 50 and then tapered down to 25, who will compete for a R5 million investment in a business venture. As far as could be established it is apparently the biggest prize up for grabs in a reality show on SA television ever, luring more than 700 entries. She will soon enter the big house in Johannesburg and only plans to emerge towards the end of the series after a period of competing in gruelling challenges in front of the camera, in full view of an audience that is likely to be biting their nails and be glued to the edge of their chairs by the time the series gets screened from August this year. As she plans to stick it out to the end she is packing a large travel case containing all her clothes for when she checks in at the B&B reserved for the five female contestants, she laughs. From the on-line photos of the contestants she appears the most petite of them all, but armed with real-life experiences in the business

world surely Mashao will prove that Limpopo-honed talent comes in small packages. She is not unacquainted with coming out tops, but also to much hardship in an industry she got to know when working in Mpumalanga and later back home in Limpopo after having completed a diploma in land surveying. In 2010 she registered her own business, but learnt that funding was one of the biggest obstacles, she says. Towards the end of that year she won the Youth Biz competition hosted by the Department of Economic Development, Environment and Tourism and Limpopo Business Support Agency (Libsa) and was a finalist in the SAB Kickstart competition in 2011, a programme that ran over a year. Since successfully launching into the business world in 2011, she has continued to employ two permanent and one part-time staff members. After time in an industry dominated by men, she is used to terminology that the average woman does not use in conversations and matter-of-factly refers to concrete mixers, compactors and rollers. Her inclusion in the Big Break Legacy series follows a vigorous judging process that started with a single text message by her cell phone service provider, a sponsor of the television show, calling for competition entries mid-2012. After following the television series the previous year, she was convinced she had to enter. A round later she was chosen as one of the 50 finalists called in January this year to present a four-minute business proposal in

Ms Thati Mashao.

Polokwane, whereupon she had to go to Johannesburg for a 20-minute introduction of her business to a judging panel a month later. After a third presentation on an income generating plan for an existing non-governmental organisation in the middle of March this year, she received email notification to be at a media briefing. She then realised she must have been among the 12 finalists. From next weekend onwards she would have to get used to entering into challenges in front of the camera. And as Thati Mashao prepares herself for the show, a possible win may be the big break she has been waiting for. All is not win-win-win and work only for Mashao though. When she has time she takes a break in the Magoebaskloof area. She singles it out as her favourite destination in Limpopo, which has always been her home. Moruleng in Seshego’s Zone 1 where her business is based is evidently where her heart is, but for the moment she is kissing the settlement goodbye because she has her hopes set on greater things.

Vodacom offers the solution to more money in your pocket

Limpopo Regional Marketing Manager, Mr Ishmael Hlomane welcomes guests.

RC MYBURGH >>rc.observer@gmail.com Vodacom Limpopo last week launched One Net Express, a mobile technology based communication solution that has the potential to save small and medium enterprises (SMMEs) hundreds of millions of Rand. The launch was hosted at Fusion Boutique Hotel during a business breakfast to which several local businesses were introduced to this innovative solution from which any business is able to gain. A media statement released at the launch stated that One Net Express, which provides big business switchboard benefits to small businesses, is already in use by over two million Vodafone subscribers across the United Kingdom and Europe. Together these customers have realised savings of over £1 billion in just over a year. In his presentation Mr Malik Melamu, Limpopo Vodacom Managing Executive made it clear that Vodacom strives towards making people connect and to create opportunities for people in business. “SMEs are the drive train of South Africa’s economy as the country hosts over 600 000 officially registered small businesses. One Net Express is yet another milestone from Vodacom to create better opportunities for small businesses,” he said. The concept of “more contacts, more contracts, more money” became clear during a demonstration on how the One Net Express works. A secretary is not needed as the system uses voice activated prompts and customers phoning in can be directed directly to an employee’s cell phone. With hunt groups the business can set up the phone number to

ring on multiple phones, mobile and 3G desk phone, at once or set it up to ring in a fixed order from one person to the next until an available employee answers the call. Alternatively a circular ring set up will equally share the call load amongst the team. This ensures that somebody in the business is always able to take the call, regardless of where they are. The product, available for under R200 per month, is specifically designed for companies employing up to 100 persons. It gives businesses traditional switchboard or PBX features on their cell phone. On top of this, One Net Express includes a host of call management functions such as hunt groups and auto attendant, which means theses businesses never have to miss a call again. Businesses will also have the option to either port in or request a landline telephone number for their business. This number will be accessible to their cell phone with no divert fees. The key features of One Net Express are the auto attendant which acts like a virtual receptionist, hunt groups intelligently route calls to employees, each One Net Express user receives 500 free minutes each month to call other One Net Express users within the business, the ability to add an existing landline telephone number, and the ability to instantly connect up to five devices to a 3G desk phone which has a built-in Wi-Fi router that allows an electronic device to exchange data wirelessly over a computer network. One Net Express is a value added service activated on a customer’s prevailing price plan. All One Net Express tariffs are billed directly to the business owner. One Net Express costs R149 per user per month and R32 per hunt group, once off.

Suidskool se saal was verlede Woensdag met ouers, onderwysers en ondersteuners gepak wat moue opgerol het in ‘n poging om meer eenhede bloed as hul opponente te skenk. Suidskool het ook daarin geslaag om ‘n nuwe rekord vir die Suid-Afrikaanse Nasionale Bloeddiens (SANBD) in Limpopo op te stel. Volgens SANBDMnr Dewald Hattingh skenk bloed met Pietersburg Laerskool se bloedskenkdag. By hom is Suid-Afrikaanse Nasionale Bloeddiens (SANBD)skakelbeampte, me Dottie Pinn.

skakelbeampte, me Dottie Pinn is dit die meeste eenhede bloed wat nog op ‘n dag in die provinsie geskenk is. Oosskool het verlede jaar die rekord van 320 eenhede opgestel. “Verkoue en griep is gedurende wintermaande ‘n groot struikelblok vir bloedskenkers. Dit is gewoonlik ook die tyd wat hoërskole met eksamen besig is. Daarom moes ons aan alternatiewe idees dink om genoeg bloed in te samel. Die kragmeting tussen die plaaslike twee skole het al ‘n totaal van 1 735 eenhede sedert 2008 opgelewer,” sê Pinn. Sy het ander skole aangemoedig om by soortgelyke projekte betrokke te raak. Kontak Pinn by 015 297 3636.

Die o.13-Limpopo Cravenweekspan is slaggereed om hul staal tydens die o.13 Coca-Cola Cravenweek wat van 23 tot 28 Junie in BelaBela aangebied word, te wys. Volgens die Limpopo Blou Bulle Laerskole Vereniging se sekretaris, mnr Neels Snyman is die span goed voorbereid en kompetisiegereed om die ander spanne aan te vat. Die toernooi word op die sportvelde van die Warmbad Hoërskool aangebied en Limpopo sal op die eerste dag van dié toernooi teen ‘n span van KwaZulu-Natal te staan kom. “Natal was nog altyd ‘n sterk span, maar ons glo Limpopo sal hulle ‘n ding of twee kan wys,” sê Snyman. ‘n Volledige program is nog nie beskikbaar nie omdat elke dag se program eers die vorige aand gefinaliseer word. Rugbyaksie word wel daagliks van 8:30 tot 17:30 beloof met nege wedstryde. Snyman bedank die borge van die Coca-Cola o.13 Cravenweek met spesiale vermelding van Forever Resorts. Die Suid-Afrikaanse Skolerugby-voorsitter, Thys Bezuidenhout het sy dank teenoor die reëlingskomitee uitgespreek. “Baie dankie aan Barnie Bekker en sy komitee sowel as vrywilligers, wedstrydbeamptes en almal wat ‘n bydrae lewer om van die 0.13 Coca-Cola Cravenweek ‘n sukses te maak. Ons weet Limpopo Blou Bulle gaan vir ‘n besonderse week in Bela-Bela sorg.”

CAD software for design uses either vector based graphics to depict the objects of traditional drafting, or may also produce raster graphics showing the overall appearance of designed objects. However, it involves more than just shapes. CAD may be used to design curves and figures in two-dimensional space; or curves, surfaces, and solids in three-dimensional space. “Our vision with the AutoCAD centre is not only to educate learners and to give them an advantage when they enter tertiary education, we will also do programming and conduct shows at the centre for Polokwane to see what it is all about,” Visser said. In the near future AutoCAD will also be available to the public in which classes will be given to interested people. The AutoCAD centre and the Autodesk Design Suite software is sponsored by Dimension Data Polokwane. They will be assisting the centre in further upgrades and modernisation of the current centre. Mr Louis Viljoen from Prokon Software Consultants also sponsored the centre with Prokon Structural Analyses and Design software that will be used in Civil Engineering. The centre will officially be opened on 16 July but is currently available to the Grade 12 learners as a resource to finalise their assignments.

>> ’n Roeping wat sy vir niks sal verruil >> Kinderverwaarlosing ‘n yslike kopseer in stad Mariëtte Snyder >> mariette.observer@gmail.com

m maatskaplike werker vir meer as 35 jaar te wees, waarvan 20 jaar Polokwane se lief en leed is, is nie ‘n maklike taak nie maar ‘n roeping wat me Sandra Nel vir niks sal verruil nie. Nel, verbonde aan die Ondersteuningsraad van die Hervormde Kerk, sê sy sluit soggens

Kinderverwaarlosing ’n yslike kopseer in stad

haar kantoordeur met ‘n lied in haar hart oop omdat sy weet dat sy as individu én as deel van ‘n span hardwerkende maatskaplike werkers in die stad ‘n verskil in die lewens van kinders en behoeftiges maak. Polokwane se maatskaplike werkers funksioneer goed saam omdat hulle dieselfde probleme aanspreek, mekaar help en saamstaan. “Ons werk soos ‘n geoliede masjien,” vertel sy. Volgens Nel is ‘n tekort aan laekostebehuising die grootste probleem wat sy die afgelope paar jaar ondervind. “Omdat behoeftige gesinne nie die intreevlakkoste van behuising kan bekostig nie, moet hulle in haglike omstandighede leef waaruit verdere probleme spruit. Omdat daar gewoonlik net een broodwinner in so gesin is, beland hulle soms op straat sonder kos en die kinders word dikwels aan onmens-

like behandeling en omstandighede blootgestel,” vertel sy. Sy sê haar werklading is partykeer oorweldigend en laat min tyd toe vir voorkomingswerk. “Daar is nie genoeg ure in die dag nie. Omdat statutêre werk die meeste van my tyd neem, kan ek onmoontlik op voorkoming konsentreer.” Voorkoming kan volgens haar ‘n reuse verskil maak as sy meer tyd gehad het. Kinderverwaarlosing as gevolg van armoede, onkunde en soms die gebrek aan ouervaardighede is ‘n yslike kopseer in die stad. “Ons gaan uit ons pad om kinders uit hul slegte omstandighede te verwyder en in ‘n veilige plek te plaas waar daar hoop vir ‘n gesonde toekoms is.” Haar wenk aan die gemeenskap wat graag ‘n hand uitsteek om te help maar sku is om vir

enigeen geld in die hand te stop, is om by geregistreerde organisasies aan te klop vir raad. “Daar is te veel mense wat geld insamel om die verkeerde redes. Dié mense veroorsaak dat die wat graag gee, hul hande toemaak omdat hulle al deur skelmstreke gevang is.” Sy doen ook ‘n beroep op weldoeners om nie hul geld uit die provinsie te laat gaan nie. “Ons mense op eie bodem het jul hulp dringend nodig. Daar is baie mense wat organisasies buite die provinsie se grense ondersteun terwyl mense in hul eie gemeenskap doodgaan van honger. Volg die regte kanale en wees verseker dat jou skenking reg aangewend word,” maan sy. Vir meer besonderhede of om as skenker betrokke te raak, kan die Ondersteuningsraad se kantore by 015 295 9053 geskakel word.

Meropa offers meals to elder citizens HERBERT RACHUENE >>herbert@mailbox.co.za Elderly persons from Regaugetswe Old Age Home in Seshego visited Harvest Charcoal Grill Restaurant at Meropa Casino & Entertainment World recently for a special taste of the restaurant’s exciting Jalapeño June menu. Ms Felicia Mphahlele, Marketing and Sales Manager for Headline Leisure Management at Meropa said they decided to invite senior citizens to be part of the launch because they are hardly involved in anything. “We felt it will be befitting that the new menu is sampled by our seniors. Meropa is about bringing people and families together and it was good to see our elders enjoying the meals. We hope to see them in the restaurant in future,” Mphahlele said. Ms Mamolepo Machaka, founder of Regaugetswe Old Age Home thanked Meropa Casino & Entertainment World for inviting them and also allowing them to be part of the new offers at the restaurant. “It was our first outing since the establishment of the home. We really enjoyed ourselves. All the dishes that were ordered by our members were scrumptious. I ate one special meal that was on their menu and it was delicious,” Machaka said. The menu includes jalapeño peppers, gorgonzola and jalapeño stuffed chicken breast and for desert pears poached in red wine and topped with jalapeño ice cream.

CHARMING TOWNHOUSE!

The Crown Rehabilitation & Conservation Wildlife Centre (CRCWC) outside Polokwane received a welcome shot in the arm when the Round Table 22 handed it a cheque for R5 000 last Wednesday. Secretary for Round Table 22, Mr Ben Nortje said the organisation’s 41ner and also DA councillor, Mr Frank Haas proposed the donation to CRCWC for all their unselfish time and effort spent on treating and rehabilitating injured birds and wildlife. He challenged other charitable organisations and businesses in the city to do the same. CRCWC owner, Ms Rene Olivier thanked Round Table 22 for their wonderful donation. She added that the funds would be used to pay veterinary bills, provide food and medicines for the injured animals and to build new shelters at the centre. CRCWC is a registered non-profit organisation and relies on donations to take care of all the injured wildlife, mainly caused by the folly of mankind. Any individuals or companies wanting to make a donation towards the centre can call Olivier on 072 513 9149 or email her at rene@crownrehab.co.za. Check out their website on www.crownrehab.co.za.

Die toekoms behoort aan hulle wat glo in die skoonheid van hul drome. Hendi Erwee: Wees trots op jou vrouwees deur elke dag net ‘n paar minute te bestee om jou maskara, ‘n sagte lyntjie en ‘n helder lipkleur aan te wend. Dit sal wondere doen vir jou selfvertroue. Nikki van den Heever: Stylvolle stilering en grimering is baie belangrik vir ‘n goeie fotosessie, maar selfvertroue is die kernaspek – weet wie jy is, waarvoor jy staan en glo dit.

Riette Knoesen: Enige vrou kan stylvol en fantasties lyk. Suna Robberts: Skoonheid word altyd die beste vertoon as ‘n vrou van haarself hou. As jy lief is vir jouself en jouself aanvaar soos jy is, straal dit uit. Michelle de Beer: A woman should keep up with the latest cut and colour techniques to show off her best attributes.

Dia van Staden: Bederf jouself sodat jy gedurig herinner kan word dat jy ‘n skepsel van God is en dat Hy elkeen sekere kwaliteite gegee het wat so nou en dan vernuwing nodig het.

Polokwane Observer asked residents for comment about the city’s ability to host big events in the light of its recent hosting of the Polokwane Classic (a part of the Sunshine Tour) and the upcoming National Championships for Drum Majorettes and Cheerleading and Coca-Cola u.18 Craven Rugby Week.

Mr Rodney Ewers: “I think we are so privileged to host such major events and it is good for the image of the city.”

Precious Tsie: “It’s good for the province but it should not be sporting events only. We need entertainment by international artists. I want to see my favourite music group Mindless Behaviour performing at the stadium next year.”

Ms Jacqueline du Plessis: “It is good for the province and the city.”

Ms Jane Mogale: “This is what we need to see all the time. We are tired of admiring other provinces. This is a clear indication that despite being dubbed a poor province, we have the ability to host major events.”

Mr Chuene Mothamane: “We need to see this all the time. Such events boost the economy of the city and the province as a whole, accommodation establishments and as a result the economy will grow.”

Lovela Godlwana: “It is good for the province and for the city but I wish whoever is responsible for bringing such events here could bring Justin Bieber next year.”

Ms Anda-Lucia Jordaan: “It is good for the province and the city and I hope both events are successful.”

Nuwe afrigter vir Limpopo o.19Curriebekerspan

FOTO: RC MYBURGH

Frederick Romijn (33) is onlangs as die Limpopo Blou Bulle o.19-Curriebekerspan se voorspelerafrigter aangestel. Hy meen die span sal vanjaar nie teleurstel nie. RC MYBURGH >>rc.observer@gmail.com

rederick Romijn (33) is wel ‘n nuweling in die stad, maar ‘n ou hand as dit by rugbyafrigting kom. Hy is stadig maar seker besig om nes in Limpopo te skop en naam onder die sportgemeenskap te maak. Romijn is onlangs deur die Limpopo Blou Bulle Rugby-unie as voorspelerafrigter van die o.19-Curriebekerspan gekies en is reeds besig om die spelers voor te brei vir ‘n harde toernooi wat Augustus begin. In April vanjaar het hy by Mitchell House as sportdirekteur aangesluit nadat hy sportkoördineerder by HeronBridge College in Johannesburg was. “Die pos by Mitchell House het ek as ‘n uitdaging en ‘n trappie hoër in my onderrigloopbaan gesien omdat ek by alle aspekte van sportorganisasie betrokke was,” sê hy.

Sedert 2007 het hy as rugbyafrigter waardevolle ondervinding opgedoen. Hy was betrokke by die afrigting van die o.19Valkespan vir die Noordwes-Universiteit se Puk-rugbyreeks, die Universiteit van Johannesburg se o.19A- en o.20-span, die Goue Leeus se amateurspan en die Pirates Rugbyklub. “Elke jaar het die o.19A- en o.20-span die liga gewen,” spog hy. “Dit is vir my ‘n groot voorreg om Limpopo se o.19-Curriebekerspan se voorspelers af te rig. Ek wil graag volgende jaar die hoofafrigter wees, maar fokus nou eers om die voorspelers in topvorm vir die toernooi te kry,” sê Romijn. Hy reken die spelers het hope talent, maar daar is nog baie skaafwerk nodig. “Plattelandse spanne het meer oefening nodig omdat die spelers wydverspreid oor die provinsie bly en nie gereeld by oefeninge kan uitkom nie. Die stadsjapies is daagliks in die gimnasiums waar plattelandse spelers moet werk om ‘n salaris te verdien en deeltyds rugby speel.” Romijn se fokus is om die beker huis toe te bring. “Ons speel om te wen. As ons nie wen nie, kyk ons na ons foute en werk daaraan. Ons hoef nie die knie vir enige span te buig nie.” Sy liefde vir rugby het in 1998 in sy eerste jaar as finansiële bestuur-student aan die destydse Randse Afrikaanse Universiteit (RAU) begin toe hy as RAU se o.21-spankaptein verkies is en dieselfde jaar as die universiteit se beste mansatleet aangewys is. Hy het veral goed presteer in die 400 m en 400 m- en 110 m-hekkies. Na sy graadstudies voltooi hy ook ‘n onderwysdiploma en begin in 2001 by Roodepoort Hoërskool as bedryfsekonomie-onderwyser. Na ‘n jaar besluit hy egter om vir twee jaar in Europa te toer om die wêreld te sien. As Romijn nie op die rugbyveld besig is nie, sal ‘n mens hom op die gholfbaan of in die gimnasium raakloop. By die huis lees hy graag boeke van Deon Meyer of snuffel in boeke en die internet oor verskeie lande se geskiedenis.

second year in the competition. He officiated in last year’s tournament at the University of Johannesburg and was recommended as a level four umpire after the 2012 SA u.21 competition. The 29-year-old hopes to gain recognition from the Federation of International Hockey after the 2013 USSA Hockey Week in order to umpire at the highest possible level. His dream is to be selected as an umpire at the Olympic Games. In addition to being one of SA’s lead-

ing young umpires, Moretsele is also the coach of the u.14 boy’s hockey team at Hoërskool Pietersburg (PHS). Prior to that he coached the boy’s hockey team at Hoërskool Waterkloof and played hockey for the Tshwane University of Technology. He has been involved with senior hockey both as a player and coach for over nine years. Moretsele also runs the Limpopo Hockey Academy at PHS. The academy is open to all boys and girls from six to 16 and utilises the excellent hockey facilities at the school.

The annual race is the premier event on the South African national off-road racing calendar and takes place in the Kalahari Desert this weekend. “I am stressed as it will be my first endurance race stretching over two days and a distance of 1 000 km. It will definitely take me out of my comfort zone but I see it as a challenge,” Meyer told Polokwane Observer. As national champ he will be first on the grid at the start of the race. The Desert Race began its life as the Total Trans-Kalahari Race in 1975 and was run for several years in the area directly below the Central Kalahari Game Reserve in Botswana. Following the signing of the Gleneagles Agreement in 1977 which discouraged Commonwealth members from engaging in sport with South Africa, Botswana no longer welcomed South African participation in the race. From 1981 the event took place in the Vryburg/Taylor’s Pan area of the Northern Cape and this is when Toyota South Africa’s marketing came on board as the event sponsor and it became known as the Toyota 1000 Desert Race. In the late 1980s game farming

became increasingly popular thus drastically shrinking the areas available to run this 1 000 km event. As a result of this, the idea of moving back to Botswana was explored and in 1991, the event moved back to where it all began back in 1975.

Windy conditions take their toll at Polokwane Classic WARREN BLUNT >>warrenb.observer@gmail.com

ean Burmester kept his cool while all the other contenders faltered in the windy conditions at the Polokwane Golf Club on the last day of the Polokwane Classic on Saturday to claim his first victory on the Sunshine Tour. What made the occasion even more memorable for the 24-year-old was that his dad, Mark and grandfather, Greville was on hand to see him triumph by four shots over his nearest rivals. Proud father, Mark Burmester said he and his dad were on their way from Botswana to Kwa-Zulu Natal on Thursday when they heard Dean was among the early pace-setters for the tournament. They decided to postpone the rest of their journey to see how Dean fares over the last two days and were overjoyed to witness him claim his first victory on the Sunshine Tour on Saturday. His son’s maiden win was also the perfect Father’s Day gift for his proud dad. Burmester shot a four under 68 while the other players could not master the tricky wind that made iron selection difficult on the last day. Justin Harding and Merrick Bremner shared second place on eight under par with overnight leader, Titch Moore claiming fourth place on seven under. Moore, who led going into the last round, shot a closing five over par 77 in stark contrast to the great golf he had played over the first 36 holes. Moore started badly with four bogeys in his first six holes while Dean kept up the pressure with a single birdie to go from four behind to a one-stroke lead. “I saw Titch was a little jittery at the start, Dean said afterwards. “I just kept telling myself that with the wind blowing like it was, I must focus on making par and the birdies would come on their own.” Dean took a one-stroke lead on the back nine and scored a further three birdies with one dropped shot to coast to 12-under and a four shot victory. “I made a few putts in the

beginning that settled the nerves and when I took the lead I knew I could do this,” he explained. “It’s been a long time coming. I tried to stay patient and managed to pull it through this week,” an elated Dean said. At the handing over of the trophy afterwards, Executive Mayor of Polokwane Freddy Greaver thanked the sponsors, Lepelle Northern Water, Silicon Smelters, ABI, AM Consulting, Vodacom and The Wired Corporation for helping to promote the city of Polokwane. So much so that the local municipality did not have to contribute a cent towards the tournament. “Our sponsors made it all happen,” said Greaver. “This tournament means a lot for us to promote growth for the local economy and promote tourism. It will enable us to use golf to create awareness and raise funds for certain social responsibilities. We are also extremely grateful to the tournament promoters SAIL. It is vital for our municipal officials to work with experienced events companies like SAIL and learn from them so it can benefit our own events and the running thereof,” Greaver elaborated.

Plaaslike leerder reg vir wêreld se beste ruiters >> Gaan eers aan strawwe Fauresmith 200 deelneem >> Sal Suid-Afrika vir eerste keer op internasionale vlak verteenwoordig WARREN BLUNT >>warrenb.observer@gmail.com

Approved agent for:

a slegs drie jaar in die saal gaan junior uithouruiter, Ludolph Neethling SuidAfrika op 26 en 27 Julie se naam hoog hou in die Fédération Equestre Internationale (FEI) Junior Wêreldkampioenskappe in Tarbes, Frankryk. Die 15-jarige leerder van die Hoërskool Pietersburg (PHS) het in Maart gekwalifiseer om teen die wêreld se beste junior ruiters sake uit te spook. Ludolph het al twee keer as juniorruiter sy Suid-Afrikaanse kleure van die Endurance Ride Association of South Africa (ERASA) ontvang, maar dit sal die eerste keer wees dat hy amptelik sy land op internasionale vlak verteenwoordig. Voor hy teen die beste juniors in Frankryk te staan kom, sal hy eers aan die strawwe plaaslike Fauresmith 200 van 2 tot 4 Julie deelneem waar hy verlede jaar vierde in die junior kategorie geëindig het. Die uithourit is een van die bekendste en strafste kompetisies op die ERASA-kalender en word oor 201 km oor drie dae gehou. ‘n Goeie verstandhouding tussen die ruiter en perd is net een van die eerste voorvereistes van uithouritte.

“Die ruiter moet die beste terrein kies en die regte besluite neem om die beste uit sy perd te kry. Slegs die beste sorg en voorbereiding vir jou perd voor en tydens die rit stel ‘n ruiter in staat om dit in ‘n goeie tyd te voltooi,” sê Ludolph. Volgens hom moet jy fiks en ingestel wees om meer as ‘n honderd kilometer in ‘n dag in alle weersomstandighede te voltooi. “Tydens die rit word perde by ruspunte deur ‘n veearts ondersoek. Indien ‘n perd se hartklop nie vinning daal nie of enige beserings het, word beide die perd en ruiter onmiddellik van die kompetisie onttrek,” verduidelik Ludolph. Arabiese perde word meestal gebruik omdat hulle so getrou aan hul ruiters is. Sy ma, Ronell sê Ludolph is ‘n natuurlike ruiter. “Hy is baie lief vir perde en alles wat met uithouritte gepaard gaan en het reeds gewys dat hy op die hoogste vlak kan meeding. Ons geniet as gesin die buitelewe, geselskap en goeie gees van die ander deelnemers.” Ludolph is vol vertroue dat hy en sy spanmaats Suid-Afrika se vlag hoog sal laat wapper op sy gehuurde perd, Quiwi Breventec. As gevolg van die duur en lang proses om perde van Suid-Afrika na Frankryk te vervoer sal hy nie op sy eie perd kan deelneem nie. Ludolph se pa, Jimmy is sy afrigter. Saam met Ronell tref hul al die reëlings wanneer Ludolph en sy jonger boetie, Christiaan, dwarsoor die land aan uithouritte deelneem. Die Neethlings is baie dankbaar dat PHS vir hom die geleentheid gun om aan uithouritte deel te neem. Hulle bedank ook Ludolph se borge, Boschchem van Mokopane en die Energy Shop in Polokwane.
