Sinthumule community to bury another of its leaders
According to the chairperson of Sinthumule Traditional Council, Mr Makhado Sinthumule, Ramabulana was a determined and faithful leader with a strong passion for development. “It will surely be a great challenge to fill the void the traditional leader left, as there are few people of his calibre. He was a great man whose sweat and hard work had brought many changes in the community he served. Besides that, he was a mentor to young traditional leaders, an icon of hope, and a role model who displayed distinguished leadership skills in his society,”

Two underaged boys were arrested and charged with the murder of 30-year-old Lufuno Mabela (27) from Madodonga on Saturday evening, 6 August. The incident took place during a drinking spree at a local tavern in Muduluni village, known as the western area, where people reportedly get stabbed to death nearly every weekend. According to provincial police spokesperson Brig Motlafela Mojapelo, Mabela was drinking beer with the two young suspects when they started arguing and a fight broke out between them. The suspects produced a knife and allegedly started stabbing Mabela repeatedly in the head and chest. After being alerted by members of the community, the police responded quickly. “When we arrived at the scene, the victim had already died. The suspects were arrested and a murder case was opened,” Mojapelo said. The two young suspects appeared in the Tshilwavhusiku Magistrate’s Court on Wednesday, 10 August. The outcome of the court appearance was not known at the time of our going to press.

Last week, another traditional leader of the Sinthumule traditional council, Vhamusanda Edward Ramabulana of Ha-Maelula, also passed away. Cllr Phineus Masipa described Ramabulana as a fallen hero who had been full of vision. He said that the leader had been involved in a number of developmental projects in his community. Masipa praised Ramabulana for his unselfish generosity and kindness and successful leadership. “The community and the young people have lost a good adviser who was a role model and a honey-guider to all. As we remember him, let us not mourn his departure but let’s forever celebrate the legacy that he has left behind,” saidMakhadoMasipa.Mayor Samuel Munyai expressed the municipality’s shock over the news of Ramabulana’s death. He labelled the death of the Vhamusanda as a tremendous blow to development, also saying it was a shame to see hardworking people, committed to working 24 hours for their communities, die. Munyai urged the residents to unite and work together for the good and benefit of the community.

Three beds, three wardrobes, a fridge, a laptop, all our clothes, food, blankets, identity documents and certificates have been destroyed. All we were left with is the clothes we were wearing.

This happened in broad daylight,” Mudau said. Everything inside the house was reduced to ashes, but the family Ms Annah Mudau, photographed next to her burnt-out home at Musi na’s Ngwelemotse section. Photo supplied.
The community also complained about the way the Justice Depart ment kept on releasing serious criminals on bail or parole who then went out and continued to terrorise people. “As community leaders, we hope that our an ti-crime concerns will one day be heard, for the safety of our people. We want to trust that justice institutions know their mandates and that the barbaric criminals will get a fair sentence that equals their crime,” he Ramovhasaid.urged everyone to unite in the fight against crime. He said that the community was threatening to take the law into their own hands if the police did not step up very soon. In response to this, police spokesperson Brig Motlafela Mojapelo said that they would spare no effort in the war against crime. Mojapelo emphasised that residents were not to take the law into their own hands but should rather visit the police station. “Mob justice - and this includes burning the so-called suspects - will not solve crime, since that is a criminal activity in itself,” he said.

By Kaizer Nengovhela Residents of Muraleni say they will root out criminals from their midst. They say they want to see that each member of the gang of young bandits, known as ‘Zikha ya’, who have been terrorising the community of late, gets locked up behind bars, or they will take the law into their own hands. The gang members apparently move around with bags and dan gerous weapons. They have been seen walking along the road from Muraleni to Madabani and through the streets to rob residents of their belongings.Community leader Alpheus Ramovha said residents had had enough of criminal activities taking place in their area. He said that crimes, such as house robberies, the raping of young girls as well as shebeen violence, had become the order of the day. “Criminals have taken the village over. They roam the streets freely, terrorising resi dents at will. We are at the mercy of these thugs, and we need to act in order to stop them in their tracks,” he said.
The local traditional leader, Ndhuna Hasani Siyani, expressed his shock over these incidents and said he was worried about liquor outlets that were not adhering to the stipulated operating times. Col Ledwaba confirmed that, regarding Hlamulo’s case, the police had opened a murder docket, while a case of culpable homicide was opened in respect of Shell Djaki’s case.

A fun night out with friends turned fatal for two young people from Gumbani, who died in separate incidents in the early hours of Sunday, 8 August. Both incidents happened during a mu sic bash that was held at a local tavern in the village, with various artists performing. In the first incident, a 13-yearold girl, who was later identified as Shell Djaki, died after she was hit by a speeding taxi whose driver was allegedly trying to flee from a group of angry men. The driver allegedly got involved in a fight at the John Ash tavern and was trying to escape. The incident happened at around 03:00 in the morning. According to Ms Tidimalo Chuene, spokesperson for the Department of Transport, the driver, identified as Matimba Trevor Manganyi (35), allegedly got into the minibus after the fight at the tavern and drove off at a high speed. A few metres from the tavern, he hit the girl, who died instantly. “At the scene, all relevant stakeholders were summoned and the driver was taken in by the police for question ing,” Chuene said. Around the same time, 23-yearold Hlamulo Baloyi from Giyani 14B, a learner at the local Khatisa High School, found himself in deep trouble. Hlamulo had apparently rented a room in Gumbani to be closer to his school. Information supplied to us indicates that he went to the music bash at the tavern for a night out with friends. A fight allegedly broke out with a group of unknown men at the tavern and he ran back to his rented room, his assailants in hot pursuit. The five attackers caught up with him at the house where he was staying and allegedly dragged him into the road, where they stabbed him to death.

Many people will remember him for being a land-ownership activist after he refused to be moved to a new demarcated site by the then Apartheid government. While all his neighbours moved to their new sites, Vho-Tomola and his fam ily remained at Lufulalunwe (the sub-village of Makonde), where he continued farming on his vast piece of land. Over the years, many other people had started to return to Lufulalun we.One of Vho-Tomola’s chil dren, Nndweleni Mankhili, who is a well-known insurance broker, talked to this newspa per about his father’s death. “We thank God for giving us a wonderful father who had been there for us throughout the years. His having passed on at the age of 100 clearly demonstrates that our father was a very special man who was protected by God for good reasons. He worked hard for his family and provided for fellow community members because he had a good and generous heart.”Nndweleni said that his father had encouraged them to work hard for themselves. “He used to tell us that wealth comes from the soil. That is why myself and my younger brother, Dr Mmboswobeni Mankhili, are respected crop farmers within our community. We will always remember his love, hard work and advice. He was a wise man who could help everyone with his wisdom and knowledge.”Makonde village’s traditional leader, Musanda Vho-Tshine tise Tshedza Ravhura, said he had learnt of Vho-Tomola’s passing with shock. “We have lost a great advisor whose knowledge of our culture and traditions will be sorely missed. We are currently in the process of compiling a database of all the old people in my village, so that we can document their knowledge before they pass on. It is a pity that Vho-Tomola passed on before we could sit down with him and document everything, so that his valuable knowledge can be passed on to the next generation. May his soul rest in peace,” he said. Vho-Tomola was happily married to his three wives, Vho-Muofhe (deceased), Vho-Masindi (deceased) and Vho-Tshinakaho. He is survived by her and his many children. A memorial service will be held in his honour today (Thursday, 11 August), followed by his burial at the family’s sacred burial site at Makonde Lufulalunwe at 06:00 on Friday (12 August).

The village of Makonde will be saying a sad farewell to one of its oldest residents this weekend. Mr Petrus Tshi awelo Munzhelele Mankhili, commonly known as Vho-To mola, passed away peacefully in his sleep at his home last Saturday (7 August) at the age of 100. Mankhili was born on 26 February 1922. Regarded as a “walking encyclopaedia” by the locals because of his sharp memory, Vho-Tomola left a lasting legacy as a respected crop and stock farmer for the larger part of his life. He owned a huge head of cattle, goats, and chickens and cultivated vegetables and tobacco for his customers, who hailed from different areas around Vhembe. He was also highly respected and loved for helping the poor with the little he generated from his farming enterprises.
Makonde’s oldest resident is no more
By Elmon Tshikhudo A memorial lecture in honour of the late Pastor Dr Masole Petrus Ragimana, who passed away in 2019, and his wife, Pastor Matsi diso Evelin Ragimana, who passed away in 2021, took place at the headquarters of The Living Gospel World Mission Church in Tshilivho outside Thohoyandou on Saturday, 6 August. The event was attended by thousands of people from across the African conti nent, including government officials, political figures, business owners and church leaders. Among the dignitar ies were Minister of Justice and Correctional Services Mr Ronald Lamola, Minister of Communications and Digital Technologies Ms Khum budzo Ntshavheni, Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) President Julius Malema, the MAMI Group Chairman Mr George Magwabeni, the newly inaugurated President of the Living Gospel World Mission Pastor Rembuluwani Robert Kharivhe, and the Higher Grace Church leader Bishop GeorgeRagimanaMuhali.and his wife were described as forward-thinking leaders. “They had the ability to read and analyse time. They were able to see things that some of us could not see. Where we saw a bush, they saw a city. Where we saw an ordinary person, they saw a leader,” said Bishop Muhali during his overview remarks. Speakers described Ragimana as a fearless man who also went into war-torn zones, such as the Democratic Republic of Congo and South Sudan, to establish his minis try as he wanted all Africans to prosper and stop relying on handouts.“DrRagimana transcended beyond the church environ ment. He gave hope to our people during the most diffi cult time in our country,” said MinisterMinisterLamola.Ntshavheni said: “Papa and Mama [referring to Ragimana and his wife] were visionaries. Their influence as church leaders impacted com munities in a big way. When elements of crime emerged in the community of Makware la and the Sibasa area, they intervened through prayer.” EFF leader Mr Julius Malema also voiced his senti ments. “You can’t be a leader if you can’t produce other leaders. The role of a leader is to produce the first and the second layer of leadership. It is for this reason that the ministry of Dr Ragimana is stillRagimanastanding.”and his wife were in ministry for more than 50 years and had established more than 200 churches in Africa and 27 in India at the time of their passing in 2019 and 2021 respectively.

By Elmon Tshikhudo A security guard was shot and killed during a cash-in-transit robbery at Duthuni village on Tuesday, 2 August. This incident follows three weeks after the tragic murder of the Collins Chabane mayor, Moses Maluleke, at his home in Shikundu, in what is also believed to have been a rob bery. The village of Duthuni is home to the two suspects who were arrested in connection with Maluleke’s death. According to police spokes person, Lt Col Robert Netshi unda, cash-in-transit security guards were doing their daily routine when they realised that they were being followed by a White Ford Ranger double cab. This was in the area of the Lutavhe Dam and the Vodacom Spaza Shop. “It is alleged that the seven suspects, four armed with pistols and three carrying rifles, started shooting at the cash truck. The driver of the cash truck stopped and ran for his life. He was allegedly shot on the arm. The other security guard managed to escape, but the third crew member was shot [in] the face and was declared dead at the scene,” Netshiunda said. The suspects reportedly failed to open the safe and only managed to get away with one bag containing an undisclosed amount of money. When the police arrived at the scene, they found 51 sealed bags still intact. Two firearms belonging to the security officers were also stolen. The police have opened charges of murder, attempted murder, cash-in-transit robbery and possession of firearms. Eyewitnesses said they had heard gunshots echoing over the mountains and rushed to the scene. “It sounded like a scene from a Wild West movie, so we rushed to where it came from. It was very scary. One of the security guards was lying dead on the ground,” said a resident who did not want to be identified. “We have never experienced something like it in our village before. We are terrified, as it seems that crim inals have found a home in our village. We implore the police to search and identify criminals staying in our village.” Retired SAPS crime preven tion head Col George Ramare misa, who is also a resident of Duthuni, described the incident as the worst he had ever seen in his area and called on the community to assist the police in tracing the robbers. He reminded residents that, just because the incident happened at Duthuni, this did not neces sarily mean that the perpetra tors were from Duthuni. Anyone with information on the whereabouts of the suspects is urged to contact the nearest police station, the Crime Stop number on 08600 10111, or through the MySAPS App A crowd of onlookers gathered at the crime scene after a security officer was shot and killed during a cash-in-transit robbery at Duthuni village on 2 August.

The soft-spoken minister said that his department had partnered with the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC)’s regional office for Southern Africa and the University of Venda to address the issue of drugs and human trafficking in the country.AsLamola was a former Univen student, a former leader of the South African Students Congress (SASCO) and the former president of the student representative council (SRC) at Univen, the students ululated and whistled with each valid point the minister made. He told his audience how former students used to be mugged and some times stabbed at Maungani village when they returned at night from drinking sprees at the nearby villages. He told them how the students decided to build their own bar on the campus, where they could safely sit and enjoy their favourite beverages, to avoid the notorious Maungani village at night. “When we told the manage ment that we wanted a bar on the campus, they wanted to know how they were going to convince our parents that the university wanted to build a bar on the campus for their children. The idea was reject ed on the spot, but we came up with a masterplan and told the management to tell our parents that they wanted to build a Student Enter tainment Centre, and before long, the bar was built next to the stadium.” In response to this, the students made a thunderous noise of apprecia tion. Lamola, however, made it very clear that he was not encouraging students to abuse alcohol; that he wanted them to be safe when they attended social gatherings. He congratulated the current management on mak ing sure that the university upheld its good reputation. “When the government wanted to merge it with the University of Limpopo, I was still the president of the SRC. We had to join hands with management and fight for this university to remain what it is for the benefit of the local community. Students should not always be at loggerheads with management. There are instances where you have to work together for the sake of education,” he said. Meanwhile, the represen tative for UNODC’s regional office in South Africa, Ms JM Ongolo, said that partnering with the university in the fight against GBV, drugs and hu man trafficking was an hon our. “Most women who are victims of human trafficking do not even leave the country. They are being trafficked around from one province to another. They are lured with the pretext of job opportuni ties, and end up being kept as sex slaves,” she said.

The leader of the Christian Covenant Church at Khala vha, Bishop Samuel Muofhe, has urged disabled people not to devalue themselves and wait for handouts, but to stand up and start doing things for themselves. Muofhe addressed hun dreds of disabled and elderly people during a conference that was held for them at the church’s premises at Khalavha on Saturday, 6 August. Among the attendees were traditional leaders, pastors from other churches, and the local ward councillor. Muofhe said the church had taken a conscious decision, as instructed by the Bible, to take better care of vulnerable com munity members, especially the aged and disabled. “The Kha Vha Ritonde Disabled and Old Age Centre here is improving the lives of many vulnerable people through skills develop ment. In August every year, we hold a special conference for them where we invite people from different organisations to come and motivate them. We encourage them to be self-suffi cient and remind them that be ing physically disabled does not mean that their thinking is also disabled. They should stand up and do things as well as they can,” he said. Muofhe said that many of the members were now doing well in their businesses, such as “Whenagriculture.theycome together, they have the chance to share their life experiences. They are able to uplift each other and the joy it gives them when they are together is something to behold,” Muofhe said. On behalf of the local traditional leaders, Khadzi Vho-Muelelwa Mutele Tshivhase praised Bishop Muofhe and his church for the good work they are doing in taking care of the vulnerable in the community.
Community Radio Musina FM invites the Mu sina community to attend its special general meeting at the old Nancefield Community Hall at 13:00 this coming Saturday (13 August), where the challenges, successes and future developmental plans for the radio station will be discussed. The station says that the public’s opinion is of great value to them as it has not had a community meeting like this for the last seven years. Over the years, Musina FM has experienced several challenges, including non-op eration for more than six months last year. This was caused by infighting among the leadership of the radio station. After intervention by various stakeholders, the radio station returned to the airwaves at the end of last year with a new station manager and an interim board of directors. The current station manager, Mr Justice Langa, said that Saturday’s community meeting was important as the leader ship would engage directly with the public and report back on several issues relating to Musina FM. He said commu nity members would also be given an opportunity to make suggestions on the running of the radio station. “We have not met the community (our most important stakeholder) for years. This is the perfect time to get them back on board as the radio station belongs to theLangapublic.”said the meet ing would also serve as preparation for an annual general meeting, where the public would elect a new board of di rectors. “Our plan is to introduce a fan base and reli able membership, so we know that the people who take part in our activities are members of the radio station. This is to avoid situations that we see in other areas, where unin formed community members storm in and disrupt community-radio meetings, thereby blocking community development for no apparent reason.”

Early in the morning, while many pensioners are still relaxing in bed or sleeping, Ms Litshani Magalela (64) from Tswera village wakes up to feed her pigs and chickens and work in the fam ily garden, before going to the orchard to check on her workers. Magalela, who was a nurse for more than 40 years at Sambandou village, said she was influenced by her parents when she was still very young that only hard work pays in this world. She is now encouraging the youth to learn how to work hard from an early age. She added that she started making extra cash when she was still working full-time. “I started by buying cows, chickens and lastly pigs. I also had to clean the local bush next to my house to start my own garden. When I retired some years back, things were looking good for me. I thank God for all the energy He gave me to do this on my own,” she said. When asked who helped in feeding and cleaning the pigsty, she said her last-born boy was always handy whenever she needed help, but if he was not around, she did everything by herself. “I also drive myself to town when I need manure and food for my pigs and goats. At my age, working and moving around also helps me to exercise every day.

Mufamadi was very excited about having written a book in a language that his people, including the elderly, can understand. “Even if they cannot read it themselves, their grandchildren can read it out loud for them,” he said. Mufamadi’s passion for writing began when he was only 17 years old and still a pupil at Vhafamadi High School. “My high school teacher used to read my handwritten manuscripts and give some comments if a story was interesting, and that inspired me greatly. I am honoured to be recognised for the work that I have been doing. It means that someone has been watching my work. I received many discouragements along the way, such as that only the old can write, and that the young lack the knowledge and writing tools to produce passable, publishable writings. But I say that has been proved wrong.”Hehighly recommends this book for learners from Grade 4 all the way up to Grade 9, as he believes it will help them improve their reading and writingMufamadiabilities.can be followed on Facebook and contacted on Tel 076 568 0493.

The name Aluwani Given Madzunya is well known around the Vhembe region. Following the success of his previous two albums, the much-loved reggae singer, who performs is currently busy finalising his third album, titled Ni wanga, which will be released at the end of August. Madzunya hails from Mukula village outside Thohoyandou. Having started his singing career at the local Seventh Church, Madzunya had always dreamt of making his mark in the music industry. “While singing at Sunday school, church members were impressed with my voice and encouraged me to take my singing further. I later joined a local community choir that sang at gatherings, like parties and funerals, and more people started to notice my talent,” he said. After some time with the community choir, Madzunya teamed up with Christopher Tshikovhela from Ha-Mphego village. The duo started to make reggae music but never thought of recording any of their music. Madzunya then joined Thomas Ramaremisa from his home village of Mukula, and they continued playing music. That was when Ramaremisa suggested that Madzunya record his music, and in 2012, he released his debut reggae album, titled Ndila ndi mbili. In 2016, he released his second album, Duvha na tshifhinga Over the years, Madzunya has worked and performed with seasoned local artists such as Shufflers Ragimana, the late Jahman Chiganja, DJ Rollman, Khathu Nemapate, King Don, Burning Fire Boys Love and Ananias Bengwa. “Music is a very complicated industry. It is almost impossible for an artist to succeed if he doesn’t work with other artists too. This has taught me many things in music; their experience was very helpful to me. That is why, even today, I still regard unity as one of the backbones for musical development and success.” Madzunya said that his upcoming album was completely different from his previous two albums, proving how much he had grown as a musician over the years. “I am now musically matured. With this new album, I have added more good sounds that you don’t hear in my previous music. The first two albums were also programmed, while this latest one is recorded semi-live, as I wanted to ensure that my fans get the real reggae feel and experience,” he said. Ni wanga consists of upbeat songs such as Lufuno lu a difha, Faranani, Lufuno lwa Murena Yesu, and Miracle Money For bookings, music sales and public performances, Madzunya can be reached on 071 591 7322 (voice calls and WhatsApp also available on Facebook Harmonic-sounds).

By Silas Nduvheni Thendo Nekhavhambe, a Grade 11 learner from the high-riding Thengwe Sec ondary School in the Mutale area, received a hero’s wel come on his return from the United States, where he had attended a month-long ex periential course on how to sustain the world by generat ing electricity using carbon dioxide from factories. Thendo (17), who is one of the top learners in his class, told this newspaper how he ended up in Houston, Texas, in the USA. “In February this year, I was invited by one of the teachers at a primary school near Thengwe Sec ondary to apply for an online innovation project in carbon capture. The winners were to be invited to attend the train ing course in Texas, and I was eager to apply,” he said. However, convincing his parents and school that this was the real deal was not easy for him, as they initially feared that this might be some kind of a trap involving child traf ficking abroad. The young man, from the rural village of Tshandama, said he was so surprised when he received the call in March for an online interview. “They were impressed with my presentation and later informed me that I was one of the learners invited to the USA for one month to attend the innovation project. This was like a dream come true for me. I did not hesitate for a moment and grabbed this chance to go overseas. It was great, and I thanked God for the opportunity I got. Board ing an airplane for the first time and travelling outside of South Africa was a wonderful experience for me,” he said. Thendo encouraged his classmates to just stay focused and trust in their dreams, and one day they might come true. The deputy principal of Thengwe Secondary, Mr Norman Munyangane, said Thendo had made the school very proud with what he had achieved. “He didn’t use his cellphone for cyberbullying on social networks but used it to empower himself. And here he is, back from the USA. We never dreamed that one of our rural learners would go over seas and represent the school on such an important project,” he said.

Magera was a true community builder, always there whenever we needed him,” Sidebi said. Cllr Masia Mulaudzi de scribed Magera as a commu nity builder and coach who was “larger than life”. “He will always be remembered for his contribution to the soccer industry, but also within his community.

Dr Munwana (55) completed his LLB degree at the Universi ty of South Africa on March 20 this year. His graduation cer emony was initially scheduled for 2021, but was postponed to this year because of the Covid-19 lockdown restrictions. Munwana, who also boasts a master’s degree in law from Unisa, specialising in labour law, said that he planned to open his own practice as an advocate when he resigned from his position at Thulamela one day. “I do not see myself working as a traffic cop forever, because that means I will have to retire and become a pensioner. My plan is to be self-employed, where I will practice law. In that field, I will have to work hard, so that I can have a good client base with a good reputation. My aim is to climb the ladder until I can become a Chief Jus tice, like Chief Justice Raymond Zondo,” he said.Dr Munwana, who passed his degrees in record time, said that he wanted people to know that “even a traffic officer can be learned”. He added that many people believed that a traffic officer knew nothing except how to write a fine ticket.

Ravele Concerned Group protesting
By Bernard Chiguvare Following the week-long violent protests in Musina for water in May this year, the Vhembe District Municipality frantically started drilling boreholes to avert any further disruptions. However, two months down the line, resi dents from some of Musina’s townships still complain about the intermittent water supply. In July this year, Ward 6 residents complained that they still only had access to water at night, when going out to fetch water somewhere else was too dangerous, and that, by the time they woke up in the morn ing, the taps had run dry again. On Monday, 8 August 2022, the situation was still un changed.Whatseems to be baffling the community is a certain message that was circulated on one of Musina’s commu nity WhatsApp groups on 5 July. The message, seemingly forwarded by one of Musina Municipality’s officials, suggest ed that Vhembe should provide security to guard the boreholes “because people were vandalis ing the notesaidretary,protecthadMusinaunderResidentsinfrastructure”.wereapparentlytheimpressionthattheMunicipalityalreadysecurityguardsinplacetoallitsinfrastructure.MusinaToTheFront’ssecMrReeksonMatamela,hewasverysurprisedtothattheauthoritieshad suggested outsourcing security guards to safeguard Musina’s waterLastinfrastructure.year,Limpopo Mirror reported that Musina Munic ipality had awarded a tender of almost R43 million for the provision of security services for the next three years. This was to protect municipal property and equipment. The tender from Mahosi Protection Security Services for an amount of R43 392 081 was accepted. On average, that amounts to R14, 46 million per year. “It appears that the munic ipality either does not trust its own security, or that the company was appointed only to milk funds. Either way, this means that none of the munic ipal property and infrastruc ture is really protected,” said Matamela.Questions were raised as to why the municipality had awarded the tender to Mahosi Protection Security Services as some of the 45 companies that had submitted tenders had been much cheaper than Mahosi Protection Security. About this the spokesperson for Musina Municipality, Mr Wilson Dzebu, replied that supply-chain management policy did not award according to price only. “Other consider ations as per advert and tender documents are considered,” he said.Asked who was responsi ble to secure Musina’s water infrastructure and who was re sponsible for paying a security company, Mr Dzebu said that all water-related issues were the responsibility of the Vhem be District Municipality.

By Silas Nduvheni With the appointment of Cllr Hlekani Mtileni as member of the Vhembe District Municipality (VD M)’s portfolio committee on finance, Executive Mayor Dowelani Nenguda said he wanted to see his municipal ity improve service delivery to the communities and to achieve a clean audit. Mtileni was elected during a special council sitting, held at the VDM’s council chamber in Thohoyandou on Thursday, 4 August. This comes after the appointment of the previous portfolio committee member, Rudzani Ludere, as ANC sec retary in the Vhembe region late in 2021. “We hope that, with the ap pointment of a new portfolio committee member, we will be able improve our financial sta tus. We are the water services authority and communities outside complain about water shortages in their villages,” said Nenguda. “Water is a source of life and without it, communities cannot live. We want to fast track water delivery and drill boreholes to improve the backlog in terms of water availability and infrastructure.”Mtileniwasdelighted to be part of the committee charged with the district’s finances and said she was ready to help bring the district to a higher level. “It is no secret that water challenges are affecting our district municipality neg atively and the little finance we have must be accounted for. Every single cent from the municipality’s coffers must be channelled to deliver services to our people and ensure that basic services, such as water, reach part of the community, especially the poorest of the poor. [If] every cent is spent responsibly for the services budgeted and accounted for, the municipality will be more stable and [ultimately] get an unqualified audit opinion,” sheSincesaid.Mtileni graduated with a bachelor’s degree in environmental sciences from the University of Venda in 2016, she had worked at a number of private institutions as environmental officer. The newly appointed member of the VDM portfolio committee on finance, Councillor Hlekani Mtileni (in the middle), was welcomed by the Speaker, Cllr Freda Nkondo (left) and the executive mayor, Cllr Dowelani Nenguda (right).

By Elmon Tshikhudo Traditional leaders have a significant role to play in communities and are proving to be a force to reckon with in driving developmental agendas in their own areas. On Friday, 29 July, tradition al leaders under the umbrella of the Congress of Tradition al Leaders of South Africa (CONTRALESA) in Vhembe partnered with Old Mutual, Busa Butsha (a non-gov ernmental organisation), and Show Me Your Number (SMYN), to hand out shoes, pads, pad dispensers, T-shirts and snack packs to two needy local schools, Mashila and Thivhulawi Primary School at Itsani Tshisahulu outside Thohoyandou. The function was attended by, among others, Tshisahu lu’s senior traditional leader Thovhele Vho-Thivhulawi Makumbane, Thulamela ward councillor Mr Joseph Ne malegeni, the entourage from Old Mutual, parents, early childhood development centre (ECDC) principals and other stakeholders.Thedonations came about because of the joint network ing between CONTRALESA Vhembe treasurer Makhadzi Vho-Marie Ravele and the re spective stakeholders involved. Busa Batsha’s Ms Paula Mak hofane said that the purpose of her visit to the schools was to implement the Sanitary Pad Drive, which is dedicated to primary and secondary schools. “I do not want girls to go through what I went through earlier on in life. We are here to make sanitary pads accessible to girls by erecting sanitary pad dispensers at every block around the schools. We also will be donating gas stoves and uniforms to ECDC teachers and meet with all the ECDC sector principals here,” she said. Thovhele Vho-Makumbane, who is also very passionate about education, called on busi nesses and organisations to join hands in making learning and teaching easy for all. “Children are our future, and we all have to stand up and intervene in their education. Without an educated youth, this country is doomed and has no future.” Makumbane thanked everyone for choosing these schools in his area as beneficiaries.
By Bernard Chiguvare On Thursday, 28 July, the Concerned Group (CG) from the Ravele Communal Property Association (CPA), joined by the Ravele royal family and several communi ty members dressed in EFF regalia, blocked the entrances to all farms in the area and ordered farmworkers to stop working. The reason is because the CG is unhappy, claiming that the Department of Rural Development and Land Reform (DRDLR) is failing to intervene to stop the feud between the current Ravele CPA committee and the CG. The CG is calling on the current CPA committee to step down as their term of office ex pired in 2019. They also accuse the CPA committee of looting the CPA’s funds. “Today we have decided to close all the farms until the DRDLR intervenes to resolve our issues,” said Mr Aifheli Bvumbi, a member of the CG. Last year, the CG also raised the same matters with the office of the Public Protector, without success.TheDRDLR, however, denied the claims against them. “The claims are baseless and untrue. The department has held countless meetings over the past several years with both the beneficiaries (the Con cerned Group and the Ravele CPA executive members), with [a] view to resolving the impasse amicably. Such intervention meetings include a mediation process leading to resolutions that were signed on 8 December 2017. The me diation process was led jointly by the Department, Chief Ravele and his royal coun cil. The main purpose of the lengthy mediation process was to ensure that members of the Concerned Group be allowed to start participating directly in the affairs of the CPA. The aim was to avoid a situation like this one, whereby members of the Concerned Group keep on raising allegations from a distance rather than within the CPA,” said Nicholas Magada, spokesperson for the Limpopo DRDLR, further accusing the CG of not attending the 2017 annual general meeting. Regarding the allegations of embezzlement of funds and maladministration by the CPA committee, the department advised the CG to lay criminal charges at the relevant law-en forcement agencies, including the anti-fraud unit. Responding to Limpopo Mirror’s questions over the telephone, Mr Nelson Netshisa hulu, chairperson of the Ravele CPA Board, said he was not aware that the CG members were closing the farms. “I am sure if they go to their legal advisor they will get the appro priate guidance,” he said. The CG agreed with the gen eral manager of the CPA that workers were to report for work again on Monday, 1 August.
VDM hopes to improve financial status with a new appointment
By Silas Nduvheni On Thursday, 4 August, the SAPS in Thohoyandou visited Tshandama Secondary School in Ngwenani ya Ha-Mapholi village to address the learners on the consequences of get ting involved in criminal activities. Sgt Annette Mukwevho of the Tho hoyandou police warned learners that getting mixed up in crime was a great risk for their future as they would never be able to get into any government insti tution with a criminal record. “Someone who gets arrested for committing a crime, like being in possession of an illegal firearm, shoplifting, stealing, abusing drugs, or any other crime where their fingerprints have been taken, may find it hard to ever get a decent job as it reflects badly on their person. A criminal record can never be reversed; it will stay with you for the rest of your life,” she said. She warned the children that the police visit all the schools in the differ ent areas to conduct searches among learners for drugs, alcohol, knives, and illegal firearms. Sgt Mukwevho advised learners to rather focus on their edu cation.TheSAPS mem bers were joined by representatives of Shandukani Youth Development, Than dululo Counselling Organisation and Armaments Corporation of South Africa (ARMSCOR) during their visit to sev eral schools around the Tshivhase area. The schools include Frans Rasimphi in Phiphidi, Zwithuzwavhudi in Gondeni, and Luphai in Maranzhe. Tshandama Secondary was their last stop. During the visit, Shandukani Youth Development identified disadvantaged learners, to whom school uniforms were donated. The organisation’s director, Mr Thabelo Netsianda, said they could not sit on the sideline and watch while young people involved themselves in drugs, instead of keeping busy with their“Ourschoolwork.missionincludes taking young people from the streets and turning them into meaningful people in society. We help learners from various schools with uniforms and shoes, and help them with their homework and assignments,” saidMsNetsianda.Manthwadi Motau, who rep resented ARMSCOR, the acquisition agency for the South African Depart ment of Defence and other organs of state, told the learners that, for them to get bursaries at the agency, they had to pass maths and science, and for that reason they would have to study very hard. ARMSCOR’s bursaries include tuition fees and accommodation.

Dynamos replaced Junior Shivhishi with Domenic Mafuleni towards the end of the first half. Mafuleni’s introduction marked the turning point of the game. He combined well with Lutendo Mulaudzi at the forefront. Mafu leni scored his team’s third goal after receiving a square pass from Maligana Tshivhenga. Bucs lost their original fighting spirit with time and were severely punished. Dynamos increased the margin in the 74th minute. Their top goal scorer, Khathutshelo Matamela, scored with a half volley.Bucs were awarded a penalty after Dynamos defender Lutendo Nekubvule handled the ball inside the penalty area and the referee pointed to the white spot. Lutendo Thathaisa scored easily.

Apart from assisting rural villages, the foun dation will also extend its services to the whole of the Vhembe area as soon as we have raised enough funds,” Chavani said. He said that the foundation consid ered encouraging the youth to study further important. “Education is the key to prosperity, and we need to strive harder to educate our nation,” he said.

Dynamos were the first to find the net. In the ninth minute, their aggressive striker, Khathutshelo Matamela, received a pre-cooked pass from Terron Mutandari and dribbled past three defenders in a row before beating the keeper. Dynamos increased the margin in the 19th minute when Beverly Siebe tried his luck from outside the box. A defender of Bucs, Edgar Mailula, deflected the ball back into his own net in an attempt to clear.

By Frank Mavhungu The Sasol Women’s League match between Tshandama Young Stars and Sealene Ladies FC, which was sup posed to have been played at the Tshandama Grounds on Sunday, did not take place. The visitors from Phalabor wa arrived at the grounds about 40 minutes later than the scheduled 13:00 kickoff time. At that stage the referee, Ms Ntanganedzeni Mugari, had already blown the final whistle. The players of Young Stars were waiting for the visitors on the field of play at the scheduled 13:00 kick-off time. Realising that their opponents were nowhere to be seen, the managing director of Young Stars, Ms Norah Mudzielwana, told the referee to blow the finalShewhistle.pointed out that the league’s rules and regulations did not make provision for a period of grace in the event that a team arrived late for a game. The referee responded by telling Ms Mudzielwana that she would only blow the final whistle after receiving her trav elling fee from the home club. Upon receipt of her travelling fee of R500, the referee blew the final whistle at about 13:15 and left the place. The referee’s decision to blow the final whistle just before their arrival at the grounds did not sit well with the manage ment of Sealene. During an interview with the team’s head coach, Mr Edwin Bereta, at the Thohoyandou Shopping Com plex, where they had stopped to buy some refreshments for the players, he stated that they had phoned Ms Mudzielwana at about 11:45 while they were still in the Malamulele area, requesting her to give them directions to the team’s new home ground. According to him, Ms Mudzielwana had told them to phone her again when they arrived in Thohoyandou. He added that when they had called her while they were in Thohoyandou, the deputy pres ident for the Safa Vhembe Re gional Association had ignored their calls. Mr Bereta said that they had arrived at Young Stars’ old home ground just before 12:30. According to him, an other game for the men’s teams at Young Stars’ previous home grounds was in progress when they arrived there. He repeatedly said that Ms Mudzielwana had continued to ignore their calls when they called her from that venue. He explained that they then called the league’s coordinator, Ms Refiloe Khosa, and shared their frustrations with her. Mr Bereta said that Ms Khosa had told them that she too had tried to call Ms Mudzielwana several times and that she was not taking her calls either. He revealed that Ms Mudzielwana had only taken his call around 13:30 and told them not to bother going to the grounds, saying the referee had already blown the final whistle and left the place. Bereta said that they had opted to drive to the grounds, where they were confronted by Ms Mudzielwana, who accused them of not heeding her advice. He accused Ms Mudzielwana of applying “dirty tricks” when they had called her to give them directions to the team’s new homeAccordingground.to the managing director of Sealene Ladies FC, Ms Victoria Magomane, she had spent about R7 000 on logistics to prepare for the game, adding that what Ms Mudzielwana had done to them was inhumane and diabolical. Both the clubs and the referee were still to submit their match reports to the league at the time of our going to press.

By Frank Mavhungu Masakona Young Tigers will not take part in the final of the Vhembe Super Cup Tournament. They were booted out of the prestigious tournament by their neigh bours, Mashamba Soccer Academy, who crushed them 2-1 in their semi-final match at the Tshifudi Stadium on Tuesday. As if they were going to bury their opponents alive, Young Tigers were all over Soccer Academy in the first 15 minutes of the game. They knocked on the opponents’ door twice in quick succession. In the first instance, Andanani Mulaudzi went loose from the right corner in the eighth minute and dished a beautiful pass to Pfarelo Ndou, who was in a perfect scoring position. Instead of taking his time and picking his spot, Ndou did the unexpected by shooting wide from the edge of the box. Lufuno Badau committed a similar blunder a little later. He forced his way through the defence of Soccer Academy and fumbled with the ball just before he could unleash from inside the box. Young Tigers’ solitary goal came in the 26th minute. Aluwani Mathelemusa found the net with a header. The team kept pressing hard in search of more goals, but their moves were intercepted as they approached Academy’s danger area.Soccer Academy gained momentum as the game pro gressed. They found the equal iser nine minutes before the referee, Mr Mpho Mphigalale, blew the half-time whistle. This after they were awarded a free kick in the 25-metre area. Lucky Munyai beat the keeper from the free kick with a banana kick. The score was still 1-1 when the teams adjourned for the half-time break. Ndivhuwo Maphiri of Soccer Academy was brought down within the box later in the game in what was a clear penalty. Pfano Ra musilei scored from the white spot.

By Frank Mavhungu With only three matches re maining before the end of the current season, teams affili ated to the Limpopo Stream of the Sasol Women’s League will be fighting for promotion and to escape the relegation axe this weekend. Most of the matches will be played on Saturday, while only one will be seen on Friday afternoon. Whether Lacoste Morning Stars will shine over Real Mighty Girls when they meet at the Shayandima school grounds on Saturday remains to be seen. Morning Stars must win the match at all costs to keep their title hopes alive. The Stars from Shayandima are currently shin ing on top of the log standings with 31 points, three ahead of Two for Joy Ladies FC. Mighty Girls have nothing more than pride at stake in the match. The Giyani side are currently lying in the seventh position on the log.After suffering a 0-6 drub bing at the hands of Rodadau FC at the Muziafera Grounds outside Vuwani last Saturday, Merwe United Ladies will be back home this weekend. They will host the University of Lim popo FC at the Merwe Grounds outside Malamulele. Merwe United are still to win a league match this season. Sealene Ladies will test their strength against Rodadau FC at the Lulekani Stadium in Phalaborwa. Sealene must keep an eagle’s eye on Rodadau’s goal poachers, Sello Lethabo, Londani Negota and the team’s skipper, Sbongile Sebetha, or else they will be embarrassed in front of their home crowd. The other league-title chas ers, Two for Joy Ladies, will host Tshandama Young Stars at the Tshirenzheni Grounds in the Nzhelele Valley. Two for Joy and Young Stars had played to a goalless draw in their first-round league match that was played at the Tshandama Grounds.Theonly match that will be played on Friday afternoon will be between Schoonord Ladies and Marumo Gallants at the Jane Furse Stadium in the Sekhukhune area.

The Makhado U/21 squad was crowned as the champi ons of the FARpost and Safa Vhembe soccer tournament played at Rabali Stadium on Saturday. They beat the Musina Squad 8-7 in the final match. The winner was determined by penalty shootout after the teams had played to 3-all draw. The match started at a fast pace, with both sides threatening to be the first to hit the target. Makhado opened the scoring in the 10th minute. Musina’s keeper, Romeo Mudzanani, was left flat-footed by Shon Baloyi. Makhado missed a fortune in the 17th minute when a header by Rinae Kutama went a littleMakhadowide. Increased the margin when Thau Radzhadzhi scored. He received a neat pass from Sedzani Ndadza and released a powerful shot from the edge of the box to bring the score to 2-0. After the goal, the match flowed at a high pace.

By Frank Mavhungu After losing 0-3 to the Tsh wane University of Tech nology (TUT) Ladies at the TUT Stadium in Pretoria last Saturday, Maindis Ladies will be on the road again. They will undertake a journey to Johannesburg next Wednes day, 17 August, where their Hollywoodbets Super League match against JVW Ladies FC will be played at the Dob sonville Stadium. According to the head coach of Maindis, Mr Sipho Mabuza, the morale was very low in the team’s camp after their defeat at the hands of TUT Ladies. He said that he had told the players to regard the defeat as water under the bridge and that they should remain focused on their future games. Mabuza, the former TUT Ladies head coach, said that their aim was to finish their league programme among the top three teams. While the morale is down in the Maindis’ camp, the situation is a different one with the JVW Ladies. They are still celebrating last Saturday’s 3-2 win over the University of Johannesburg FC.

By Kaizer Nengovhela Hollywood Mabaleng FC shared the spoils with Gogobole Home Defenders in their Makhado Local Football league match played at Tshiozwi Grounds on Tuesday. Although they had nothing to lose in the match, Defenders gave Mabaleng a run for their money. Defenders were in the sixth position on the log when going into the match, while Mabaleng desperately needed the points to maintain their leadership.Theteams were clearly at each other’s throats from the onset. The first 20 minutes of the game were characterised by dangerous tackles. Net shedzo Phadziri of Defenders was booked for dangerous play on Phindulo Mabasa in the eighth minute. Doctor Masingi of Mabaleng and Ipfi Siphugu of Defenders were also booked for similar infringements in the 10th and 14th minute respectively. No goal was scored in the first half, despite the fact that the teams created numerous scoring chances. Mabaleng took the lead in the 84th min ute via Luvhengo Mauluma. Defenders did not lose hope, despite the fact that time was fast running out. Their left winger, Takalani Ndadza, was brought down within the box, which was an obvious penalty. Phethani Sinugo scored from the pen alty spot to equalise.
Maindis Ladies on the road again
By Frank Mavhungu Following their promotion to the ABC Motsepe League Division at the end of last sea son, United Artists Football Club confirmed the appoint ment of Mr Tsumbedzo “Zoo” Manamela to the position of the team’s head coach. Manamela was the caretaker coach for the team during their promotional play-offs campaign. When asked to shed some light regarding his short- and long-term plans for the team, Manamela indicated that his mandate was to ensure that the team complete their first season in a respectable position on the log standings. The club’s management made clear that they did not want to see the team fighting for survival to wards the end of the season. Manamela said that some of his long-term goals included promoting the team to the National First Division at the end of next season. He also believes that their set goals are achievable under the current circumstances.UnitedArtists will retain the majority of the players who were part of the team that did the Vhembe Region proud in the provincial promotional playoffs. Manamela said that they were busy assessing a number of experienced players with the aim of offering some of them employment contracts. When asked about the de partments they were intending to beef up, the former head coach of Ablex United FC said that their target was to acquire the services of four experienced players, which included a left back and two strikers, before the league activities for the new season started over the third weekend of next month. Zoo, as he was called during his days as a soccer player, is fast becoming a promotion specialist. He was the brain behind the promotion of Vondwe XI Bullets FC from the SAB League to the ABC Motsepe Division last season. After coaching Bullets in their first five matches in the ABC Motsepe League, Manamela then migrated to the other ABC Motsepe League side, Ablex United FC, following a job offer from the club that he said was difficult for him to decline. The new players will be put to the test in their pre liminary-round match of the Nedbank Cup Competition that will be played on Saturday, 10 September. Mr Tsumbedzo “Zoo” Mana mela.

By Frank Mavhungu Madridtas FC managed to secure a place in the final of the Vhembe Super Cup, following a hard-earned 2-1 victory over Basel FC at the Tshifudi Stadium on Tuesday. Basel have themselves to blame for the poor result. They could have scored two beautiful goals during the first half, but their forwards were unlucky at the goal Realisingfinish.that their defence was a bit shaky, Madridtas were forced to effect an early change to their original line-up. They replaced Walter Muthelo with Ernot Dzaga nine minutes into the game. After 19 minutes, Basel realised that Tuesday was not their day. They were awarded a penalty after Leon Sithole was brought down inside the penalty box. Hakhakhi Mudau caused an upset by shooting straight to the keeper, who palmed the ball away for a corner kick. The keeper of Madridtas, Emmanuel Mukwevho, was reprimanded with a card for an ugly tackle on Leon Sithole. Basel were also forced to effect changes to their starting 11 after Leon Sithole, their lethal striker, had sustained a serious injury to the knee. He was replaced with Matimu Mhlaba. Basel made another threat towards the end of the first half. Their left winger, Stanley Sithole, could not believe his eyes when his half volley missed the target with inches.
Madridtas were the first to blow the trumpet in the 57th minute. Their over lapping midfielder, Oriphulusa Netshishivhe, beat the keeper with a ground cutter. Basel, however, did not give in without a fight. They found the equaliser via Gabriel Mashele, who beat the keeper with a half volley from a freeThekick.goal that separated the boys from the men came on the stroke of full time. Ernot Dzaga headed home after a free kick that was taken by Thuso Nenweli. By Frank Mavhungu Merwe United Ladies are still battling to come to terms with the 0-6 defeat they suffered at the hands of Rodadau FC in their Sasol Women’s League match that was played at the Tshitungulwane Muziafera Grounds on Saturday. Rodadau could have scored more than a dozen goals during the first half, but their strikers did not show any appetite for goals when they approached the visitors’ danger area. Realising that the keeper of Merwe, Mbuyelo Chauke, was more of a placeholder, Rodadau’s strikers decided to try their luck from a distance. Their efforts were not in vain and they took the lead in the 11th minute. Their overlapping midfielder, Anna Sehlare, caught the keeper napping with a half volley after a brilliant pass from Puledi Sebola.
