National award goes to CDC for job creation ‘We are honoured to have received this award as recognition for all our hard work. We decided long ago that we would not be an island of excellence in a sea of inequality in the Eastern Cape.’

HE Coega Development Corporation (CDC) has been recognised for its empowerment efforts after being awarded the Job Creation Award at the 13th Annual Oliver Empowerment Awards at Emperor’s Palace in Johannesburg, Gauteng last Friday. The Oliver Awards are regarded as South Africa’s premier awards for leadership and innovation in empowerment and transformation. In addition, the CDC was also one of four recipients of a Raizcorp bursary to the tune of R250 000. The bursary is to be awarded to a black business owner from the CDC’s supply chain. “We are honoured to have received this award as recognition for all our hard work. We decided long ago that we would not be an island of excellence in a sea of inequality in the Eastern Cape,” said the CDC’s Executive Manager for Business Development, Christopher Mashigo. “As a result every waking step has been about integrating our core business with a socio-economic outcome either for people in Nelson Mandela Bay or the Eastern Cape and now KwaZulu-Natal.” The award, took cognisance of the 47 186 construction as well as 4 409 operational jobs that have been created by the CDC through its investment promotion activities and infrastructure development projects, and a further 50 000 indirect and induced jobs that have been created. During the 2013/14 financial year over 13 000 jobs were created with a similar number trained. An elated CDC Head of Marketing and Communications, Dr Ayanda Vilakazi, said, “Coega’s job creation role is ever expanding – which was the point of establishing an industrial de-

Female employees on site in the Coega Industrial Development zone (IDZ) are part of the 47 186 construction and 4409 operational jobs that have been created by the CDC, and a further 50 000 indirect and induced jobs from which locals also benefited. PHOTO:SUPPLIED workers instead of losing them to larger urban centres and economic migrants. According to Dr Vilakazi, their approach is to employ as many people from the Bay as possible. Currently, 85 per cent to 90% employed are local people. The skills that were not available in Nelson Mandela Bay were outsourced, firstly in the province and then to the greater
velopment zone in the first place – as we secure and grow our basket of investors. Dual jobs are created through investment, firstly construction jobs and secondly operational jobs.” “Jobs mean that people can feed, educate and put a roof over the heads of their families,” said Mashigo who added that the Eastern Cape and KwaZulu Natal provinces can now keep skilled
South Africa. On all Coega projects, SMMEs benefit from a minimum of 35% of the total value of the contract. In the 2012/13 financial year, SMMEs benefited from 41% of the contract value with a similar total clocked this year. According to Dr Vilakazi, young people who have an education often lack basic essential skills like driving, limiting their access to the job market. To counter that and increase local young peoples’ chances of employability, the CDC introduced a world-class driver training programme that both provides crucial skills and enables employability. “Coega runs the driver training programme as its flagship corporate social investment initiative. The reality is that many young graduates have secured degrees but encounter a huge barrier to job market entry in that they don’t have a driver’s licence,” said Vilakazi, adding that people with a driver’s licence were prioritised over those who did not have one. . The CDC is finalising its financial year figures and will make an announcement on its target’s successes in May.

Rotary PE West donation to monitor Dora Nginza’s babies REPORTER THE Rotary Club of Port Elizabeth West has used proceeds from their 2013 Wine Auction to purchase four Biolite Mobile BPS machines for use in the Dora Nginza Paediatric Wards. Dr Lungile Pepeta, the champion of the department, was joined by Dora
Nginza board member Alan Ahlfeldt, CEO Dr Mbulawa-Hans, and Departmental Matron Sr Nozibele Manchapa to receive the machines from a Rotary delegation including current club president Angela Newton, previous District Governor and principal Lionel Heath, and previous club president Kathy Hassell. The machines, valued at R65 000, monitor temperature, heart rate, satu-

ration, and blood pressure. Currently these tasks are all done manually. Dr Pepeta stated that “having these machines means monitoring the children is more accurate and efficient. This will improve our service delivery and their health. It is a win-win made possible by Rotary. This kind of health care will make a huge difference.” The machines can be used on adults, children and babies. Angela Newton commented, “Rotary International has child health as one of its focus points. Being able to make a difference in the lives of hundreds of children over the next years makes our time and effort to raise these funds worthwhile! It really warms the heart.” The funds were proceeds of the Rotary Wine Auction 2013. This year the annual wine auction will be held on 20 June at Tavcor Embassy. Proceeds will again be split between a local charity and the End Polio campaign. Rotary International, joined chiefly by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, has been working very hard to eliminate polio around the world. Active polio now exists only in 3 countries (Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Nigeria). It is very important that this disease is eliminated now before it has a chance to re-introduce itself. Kathy Hassell said that “it is important to do our bit both for those in our area and for our world as a whole. Big dreams accomplish big goals”.

Mandela Bay Freedom Run, a good story to tell NCEBA DLADLA THE rejuvenated Nelson Mandela Bay Freedom Run was a resounding success, the organiser of this phenomenal township race that takes place in Motherwell, Port Elizabeth, Michael Mbambani said. According to Mbambani, the race has grown by leaps and bounds. “The number of participants in all categories has grown tremendously and this time around there was so much vibrancy. I think it can only become better,” Mbambani told PE Express Indaba. Supported by Nelson Mandela Bay Municipality among other sponsors to honour the legacy of the late icon of Freedom and Democracy, the late president Nelson Rholihlahla Mandela, the 10km race pitted hundreds of wellknown men and womenrunners against one another from across the width and breadth of South Africa. “The weather was good. The race was incident free. The runners and the spectators enjoyed them-
selves,” an overjoyed Mbambani said. The Bukani Printers Director Mbambani congratulated Anthony Gondongwana of the Transnet Athletic Club (AC) in Gauteng and Zintle Xiniwe of New Balance AC in KZN for winning the race in the men’s and ladies’ categories respectively. Gondongwana (29) missed the record by a mere 18 seconds. He clocked 29 min 18 seconds to miss Mdedelwa Hlazo’s 2012 record of 29 min flat. Nelson Mandela Bay’s George Ntshiliza and Ntombesintu Mfunzi, the previous winners of the race came sixth (senior men) and second (senior ladies) respectively. “This competition used to be known as the Motherwell Freedom Run and was aptly renamed Nelson Mandela Freedom Run for its fourth edition that took place a day before the country celebrated 10 years of freedom, which is widely considered a good story to tell,” said Municipal spokesperson Kupido Baron. “I am very happy,” said Mbambani in his closing remarks.

Huge traffic fine losses
Police say no to drunk driving
LIZEKA TANDWA
NCEBA DLADLA
THE Nelson Mandela Bay Municipality is los-
ing out on all traffic fines for offences committed since February, after the use of a computer system for capturing data of the fines was suspended owing to the municipality not paying the service provider. The Traffic Prosecution System, named the Cyprus system,was suspended when the municipality failed to pay its service provider, Traffic Management Technologies (TMT). The suspension resulted in fines older than 30 days having to be be withdrawn - creating a major loss of income for the municipality. The municipality currently owes six months’ worth of payment, equalling R36 000, to the Cyprus service provider which decided to suspend its service over two months ago. DA Caucus Chief Whip, Gustav Rautenbach, said the suspension of the Cyprus system has a huge financial impact on revenue that is supposed to be collected by the Traffic Department. He estimates that losses can run into millions of rands. No capturing has been done by clerks, and no warrants of arrest can be executed. “In short, the Traffic department, more specifically the legal process section, has come to a complete standstill,” Rautenbach said. The suspended Cyprus system is responsible for capturing every camera offence, parking offence, or fine issued by a traffic officer on its system. In the case of a camera offence, a notification has to be sent to the registered owner of the vehicle within 30 days of committing an offence. This also applies to parking tickets where offenders are notified at the time of the offence.
“Should an offender not pay the fine, the Cyprus system issues a summons against the offender,” Rautenbach explained. He added that this has also affected the rate payers who could be paying an extra 1% on municipal rates to fund the metro police force. This is not the first time the system has been suspended. Last year the system was suspended for five months after the municipality failed to pay the service provider, according to Rautenbach. The service provider TMT said they did not wish to comment at this stage with CEO and Executive Director, Douglas Davey, saying, “We are in communication with the Municipality and we will deal with this matter confidentially.” Municipal spokesperson, Kupido Baron, said, “NMBM had a contract with TMT which expired on August 20, 2013. The Municipality could not pay them because the contract had expired and the contract needed to be extended. The request for extension was not successful and we were advised to go out on tender which we did. TMT switched us off (Cyprus System) on February 18, 2014.” Baron said they acquired a new service provider called Mavambo through a comprehensive Supply Chain Management process. PE Express could, however, not obtain an answer from him on when the new provider will be operational. Rautenbach further said, “The staff at the legal process section have to sit with prosecutions piling up each day whilst they cannot do anything about it; they virtually have no work to do. “Someone, somewhere has to be accountable for this situation and must surely suffer the consequences.”
MEMBERS of the South African Police Service (SAPS) in the Kwazakhele police station precinct involved in Operation Paseka arrested 28 males who are between the ages of 21 and 60 during the Easter Weekend. The arrests were made in the Kwazakhele, Zwide and Veeplaas areas, according to po-
3
lice spokeperson Warrant Officer Thembi Gwe. “Members of Kwazakhele Crime Prevention Unit were performing their routine stop and search in the area as part of Operation Paseka and arrested 28 males - all for drunk driving,” said W/O Gwe. The arrests were a stern warning to would- be drunken drivers that the streets of Kwazakhele would not be crowded with people who drink and drive.
Two nailed for murder of elderly man NCEBA DLADLA A UITENHAGE team of investigators who successfully arrested two murder and robbery suspects, have been commended by Station Commander Brigadier Phillip Salukazana. The suspects, who are both in their twenties, were arrested for the murder of an 80year-old man after an investigation by members of the Uitenhage SAPS, the SAPS Crime Provincial Crime Processing Team and the Local Criminal Record Centre Personnel in Uitenhage. According to Uitenhage police spokesperson Warrant Officer Gerda Swart, the body of an 80-year-old man was found on Saturday 19 April at about 9:50am after concerned neighbours called members of the SAPS. “Police came across the body of a man lying in the passage of his home. It is believed that the man was struck over the head with a blunt object,” said W/O Swart.
She added, “A breakthrough came on Wednesday 23 April when members of the police followed up on information and arrested the two suspects at their residential homes.” The two suspects who were linked to the murder and robbery of the elderly citizen were expected to appear in the Uitenhage Magistrate Court soon on a charge of murder and robbery. Brig. Salukazana hailed the dedication, commitment and determination that was portrayed by the team of investigators in ensuring that criminals were actually put behind bars. ) In an unrelated case, an inquest docket has been opened following the death of a 76year-old-man whose body was discovered last Friday between the corners of Cuyler and Caledon Streets in Uitenhage between 5 and 5:30pm. Anyone who is missing an elderly male should contact Detective W/O Jacques Nel of the Uitenhage Detective Services at: 0 084 811 2975.

EC sports veterans seek recognition for their contribution NCEBA DLADLA TWO Eastern Cape sporting legends are crying foul for lack of government recognition and admiration of what they called their years of giving their all to this country, during the years of apartheid and oppression. Christopher “Chris Kid” Dlamini, a former South African Flyweight and Bantamweight Champion, and Skipper Phama, a 7th Dan Mixed Martial Artist Specialist claim they were loved as the entertainers and heroes of their time but since the dawn of democracy, nobody remembers them. “I started boxing in 1964 and after a record of close to 200 amateur fights and becoming a national champion a couple of times I turned professional and became the dual SA Flyweight and Bantamweight Champion,” said KwaZakhele Township’s Dlamini (65) who used to draw big crowds at the now Nangoza Jebe Hall and Dan Qeqe stadium during his heyday. “But, you’ll hear government calling ex-boxers to honour them with awards for their contribution to the sport and nothing comes my way. It seems nobody remembers me,” said Dlamini who remembered his first pro fight against Hayward Tukani in PE on October 10, 1968. He beat Gauteng’s Rufty Mngadi to win the SA Flyweight title in 1971 after beating the great Bashew Sibaca for the Cape Flyweight title. Dlamini beat East London’s Cyril “Old Bones” Adams to win the national Bantamweight diadem in 1974. Like Dlamini, Skipper “The Tiger” Pama (65) complains of lack of

Pama started judo in 1968 and later turned to karate. According to him, he was the first African from the province to go overseas with the sport in the early 1970s. Pama, who is based in Mthatha and has been involved with coaching has been to London, Japan, the US as well as some parts of South Africa like Cape Town to further his career in different kinds of Martial Arts including Kumite (contact). “In 2000 I went to the World Cup in Austria and became number six in the world. Nobody says anything about it now. It is as if I did not exist,” he cried. The duo complain that to date there are not even gymnasiums for them to train the youth. “Community halls like Cripple Care and Centenary are now used by councillors. They used to be venues to train different kinds of sport, to keep the youth active, but not anymore,” said Dlamini.
Another Masters Degree for Ntshona NCEBA DLADLA NELSON Mandela Bay Executive Mayor Benson Fihla has congratulated Chief-of-Staff in the Mayor’s Office, Beza Ntshona who graduated with a Masters Degree in Information Systems and Knowledge Management last week Wednesday. The MA degree is the fourth that has been conferred on the former Chairperson of the South African Local Government Bargaining Council. Ntshona currently boasts four MA degrees in a total of seven university degrees. “This is an outstanding accomplishment and deserves appreciation and admiration as Ntshona is continuously working hard towards improving his academic achievements,” said mayor Oom Ben, adding that

the Chief-of-Staff in his office was undoubtedly a very valuable resource for the municipality. He said Ntshona was an inspiration to the municipal officials and the public at large. And Ntshona did not even go to the graduation ceremony at the Stellenbosch University in Cape Town claiming, “I am no longer excited about the graduation ceremonies as I attended quite a number of them as you can imagine.” But Ntshona was quick to add, though, that the value of another academic qualification was immeasurable and very useful in his day-today activities as a municipal official. This former metro councillor, who once headed the Budget and Treasurer Portfolio, graduated with a Masters Degree in Development Studies from the Free State University in 2013. His other two Masters Degrees were obtained from the University of Port Elizabeth, now known as NMMU, in Public Administration and Management and Free State University in Governance and Political Transformation. A former Cowan High School matriculant, he obtained a BA degree from the University of the Western Cape, a B-Tech Degree in Human Resources Management as well as a Diploma in Labour Law from the Graduate Institute for Management Training.

Experience gained by participating in this project will be invaluable for future library activities, said Municipal spokesperson Kupido Baron. The project includes a number of activities, including storytelling and reading at 16 crèches and to the Grade R and Grade 1 children at the Walmer Junior School in Gqebera, and formal literacy sessions with pupils from Grade 2 at the school. The activities are volunteer-based and take place at the school during school-time, according to Baron. He said the Library Service has arranged a weekly story-hour at the Walmer Junior School for the two foundation phase grades, and is also considering story-telling at the crèches. “The caregivers at these crèches have been supported in their valuable jobs by training and skills transfer, and a number of crèches

have had toilets, classrooms and jungle gyms installed by private companies in response to approaches by the Walmer Angels Projects,” Baron said, adding that it was not only the crèches in Gqebera that benefited from the story-telling. Reading and other educational play activities, did too. Libraries throughout the metro area invite their local crèches to come to the library for a weekly fun session as a way of introducing the younger children to libraries and reading. Often this is the only opportunity for the toddlers to be exposed to books and reading in any way. To assist in this activity, we ask the public to donate suitable books for toddlers at crèches, play schools and nursery schools in the metro. All libraries will have a box labelled “BOOK DONATIONS” on display where these books can be dropped off, and at the end of May the books will be collected, sorted, repaired if necessary, and delivered to their new owners at the start of the term in July.

KwaNobuhle police, some do-gooders NCEBA DLADLA MEMBERS of the South African Police Service (SAPS) in KwaNobuhle are supporting education. This according to Constable Kiambu Kamba, the Community Police Forum (CPF) Sector 1 Manager, who told PE Express Indaba that while policing the area they noticed some creches who are struggling with finance and assisted them with their needs. “We noticed for instance that some areas really need the existence of a creche to help educate toddlers but most of their parents are unemployed and as a result unable to pay for their children’s education,” said Kamba. Kamba mentioned however, that the Social Development Department and Special Programmes together with the South African Social Security Agency (SASSA) do look after Early Childhood Development (ECD) Centres in the local communities including KwaNobuhle. “But there were still those who were not benefiting from SASSA for whatever reason,” Kamba said. To help them, they donated food parcels to at least three of the local creches in the recent past to ensure that little children get the food to nourish their little bodies.

REPORTER FORMER Idols runner-up Lloyd Cele will help SPAR Women’s Challenge participants forget about their tired muscles with his soothing music when he takes to the stage at Pollok Beach in Port Elizabeth on Saturday, May 3. “I can’t wait, it is going to be super awesome. I am very excited about it and honoured to have the opportunity to perform at the event,” said the Sama winner Cele about performing for more than 14 000 runners and walkers as part of the post-race entertainment. “They can expect a lot of fun, even more energy and great music. Expect to feel special, to feel loved and appreciated as a woman.” The “Make it easy” singer added that he was looking forward to performing some of his biggest hits at the PE race as he reserved a special place in his heart for strong and determined women – characteristics his mother, who raised him as a single parent, possesses. Cele holds community upliftment dear and praised the organisers’ efforts to raise funds for charities like the Association for Persons with Physical Disabilities (APD) in Nelson Mandela Bay. Another SA celebrity, Pasella presenter Paul Rothmann, will emcee the women’s race.

Shining star Lithemba Premier Boxing League coming to dreams to tour overseas
Nelson Mandela Bay NCEBA DLADLA IT has been confirmed that the innovative Premier Boxing League (PBL) is coming to Nelson Mandela Bay. Supported by the ruling professional boxing body, Boxing South Africa (BSA), the league is the brainchild of Eastern Cape-born journalist and former SABC TV Boxing Commentator Dicksy Ngqula. It will be held in Port Elizabeth at the end of next month. “We are busy tying up the loose ends; otherwise we can confirm that the next instalment of the PBL tournaments will be held here in the Friendly City,” said Ngqula confidently. BPL Chief Executive Ngqula, who is currently in the city, added that there were two tournaments to go before crowning the champion who will take home a whopping R1 million prize-money for winning the league made up of four six-round fights. Boxers are paid R60 000 per fight.
This is something that is not common-place in South Africa that pays boxers about R1200 for a four-round bout. Ngqula confirmed that Sibongile Nkebe, the head of Silindokuhle Boxing Promotions, was chosen to promote the fight at the end of May. “We welcome the idea of the Premier Boxing League coming to our city. It will surely boost our image as the Mecca of boxing in the country,” said Nelson Mandela Bay BSA Manager Mthunzi Mapitiza. Mapitiza also thanked the BPL Chief for picking-up on Nkebe for the tournament. He also mentioned that there was a flyweight boxer reported to have pulled out of the league. This is an opportunity that opened for KwaNobuhle’s newly crowned EC Junior Flyweight champion, Mzwabantu Dabaza, to take. And, Dabaza’s mentor Louis Phillip is over the moon. “I’ve just head the news. I am so excited. It means we’re truly going up the ladder. My boy is so dedicated that he’ll beat all those flyweights in the PBL.

HE is only 12 years old, but Lithemba Magajana is set to represent South Africa at the 6th Ippon Antwerp world judo tournament overseas. The tournament, which will take place in Belgium on 16 and 17 May, will be hosted under the banner of the International Judo Federation. Lithemba from Holomisa in KwaNobuhle township, Uitenhage started karate at Zenshion Karate Club when he was five years old. Today, not only is he a Green-belt judoka, but is also a brown belt “sempai” in karate. “In karate, I kick and punch, whilst in judo, I often lock and throw an opponent down on the fighting mat. I never make a mistake by using karate instead of judo at competitions,” he said. His father, Mzwandile Magajana, has a brown belt in judo. He is a fierce fighter. He promised that the boy would give the best performance in the world judo
tournament in Belgium, come next month. He said, “The boy is very disciplined and likes what he is doing. He is as strong as an ox. I am confident he will come back home with victory” Lithemba said he’s been fighting in many karate and judo tournaments across South Africa. “I have been in Durban, Johannesburg, East London, Cape Town as well as Pretoria. I have many gold, silver and bronze medals, as well as dozens of trophies. When it comes to a street fight in the township, I always apologise and never engage in a fight. I often smile when a boy wants to fight with me, and say sorry,” he said. “But I am confident that I will never let down my country in the upcoming overseas competition!” said the grade 7 learner at Dower Practising School. His trip overseas will cost about R20 000, and people who would like to make the boy’s dream come true can call his dad Mzwandile on 0 076 910 3524

Valencia were the first side to launch their attack and the Movers goalkeeper had a busy first half. Valencia skipper Uyathandwa Mabengu kept a close eye on Movers dangerman Mbongeni Cadre Yako whose shot was saved by goalkeeper Ayanda Rajah Yako in the first half.

the penalty spot and Sithembele Yako banged in the last goal after Valencia’s goalkeeper miskicked a back pass from one of his defenders.
