Power to the people By Andries van Zyl

The Makhado Municipality has embarked on a multi-millionrand upgrade of Louis Trichardt’s electrical infrastructure to allow for future growth of the town. The upgrades form part of a three-year programme, with two upgrades taking place each year.

The programme was kick-started at the Stubbs Street substation, which had a 5 MVA (megavolt amperes) capacity, boasting two 5 MVA transformers working side by side. This means that in the event that one of the transformers suffers a breakdown, the electricity can be switched over to the other transformer. During a week-long

Lambrechts) on Sunday, 9 May, In the Soutpansberg, Zena was well known for her sparkling personality, boasting an extensive career in the hospitality industry. Most got to know her during her years of service at the Khoroni Hotel in Thohoyandou. From there she was a welcome face at the Adam’s Apple Hotel and, more recently, she opened and managed Zena’s Cantina at Kennington Lodge just outside Louis Trichardt - until she got sick. During 2018, Zena started to struggle with her health. This was because she was left with only 23% heart function after suffering The always-smiling Zena who a heart attack a couple of years passed away on Sunday, 9 May, earlier. at the age of 50.

upgrade process in April, the Makhado Municipality removed one the 5 MVA transformers and replaced it with a new 10 MVA transformer with the aim of increasing the substation’s capacity to 10 MVA. The other 5 MVA transformer will be replaced with a new 10 MVA in the next financial year. This will allow for growth in the area north of Stubbs Street and east of the N1 (New Town) currently being serviced by the Stubbs Street sub-station. The programme will, upon comple-

tion, see the upgrade of the Boompark and Roodewal substations from 2 MVA to 5 MVA, while new technology in terms of electrical switches will be installed at the Emmarentia substation. The municipality need to upgrade the technology because they are still using old switch gears at the substation. The same new technology had already been installed at the Stubbs Street substation during a previous upgrade. The upgrade will also see an emphasis on recycling. The transformers they are

taking out will be re-casketed and reconditioned because they are still working. They will then be stored as back-up transformers in case of emergencies. The new 10 MVA transformer installed at the Stubbs Street substation, as well as the others to be installed, was purchased and shipped from China. For this initial upgrade of the Stubbs Street substation, the upgrade cost around R3 million. This includes the purchase price, shipping, crane service and installation.

I am ... the Way, the Truth and the Life Nehemiah chapters 9 & 10.

T

he four principles for revival as found in these two chapters. One - A return to broken-heartedness. Chapter 9: 1,2 The wall of Jerusalem was completed. There was great joy, but after only a few days, feasting gave place to fasting, and joy became humiliation. But their sin caught up with them. Confession of sin and repentance are not things to be left in the background of Christian life. (Ps. 51:17). If you avoid a daily humiliation before God in your present Christian life, you will soon become hard-hearted, cold, and indifferent to the things of God. Two - A second principle is a reflection on God’s goodness. The people counted their blessings one by one (v. 6-15). A constant repetition of God’s faithfulness, God’s goodness, God’s grace, God’s blessing. Then note the word “but” in v.16. In spite of God’s goodness, how stubborn they were. Is it not the truth of our rebellion and indifference and coldness towards God? God to them was so distant; for us He is so near. He was outside them; He is inside us. There is less excuse for us than for them. Three - There should be a recognition of our sinfulness. V.33. A lot of times we want to justify our sins, but it is a tremendous moment in a Christian’s life when he can honestly look up into the face of God and say: “Yes Lord, You are right, and I am wrong. I’ve got what I deserved in this situation.” The sin God never forgives, is the sin we will not confess. Four - The renewal of our obedience. In the Old Testament, the obedience of God’s people was impelled by law, whereas ours is inspired by love. Obedience affected their personal and family life (10:29). Obedience affected their social life (10:30). It also affected their church life. How wonderfully Chapter 10 closes: “…we will not neglect the house of our God”. That means not just that we will not fail to attend it, but that we will not let it down. May God bless his Word to our hearts and lead us into that very experience. - Rev Johan Marais (Louis Trichardt Baptist Church)

ZOUTPANSBERGER, 14 MAY 2021

Voorwaar ‘n klein wêreld waarin ons lewe Die wêreld is werklik klein, soos oud-inwoner en -onderwyser by Hoërskool Louis Trichardt Renata Joubert onlangs agtergekom het. Renata het in 2018 die Soutpansberg vir die Kaap verruil, waar sy by Hoërskool Hermanus begin onderwys gee het. Die een oggend loop sy haar vas teen ‘n blou das met ‘n baie kenmerkende wapen op – Hoërskool Louis Trichardt se leeu. “Jy kan net dink watter hoendervleis affêre

dit vir my was om hier, 1800km weg, in daardie bekende leeuwapen vas te loop!” het Renata gesê. Sy het gesê sy is baie gelukkig in die mooie Hermanus, maar dat sy tog nog terugverlang na die bekendheid van Louis Trichardt waar sy oor soveel jare deel van die gemeenskap geword het. Die das het behoort aan Zeno Venter, ‘n medekollega van Renate. Sy het hom daaroor uitgevra en hy het gesê die das het aan sy pa, Jan Adriaan Venter, behoort. Jan Venter was in 1957 ‘n Triegie matrikulant. Hy het die das in 1996 by

Skolenuus

Triegies se 50-jaar feesvieringe bekom en met trots gedra, tot en met sy afsterwe in 1997. Jan was voorwaar ‘n trotse Triegie wat in die legendariese aflosspan was wat die Interhoër in ‘n nuwe rekordtyd op Pietersburg gewen het. Die ander lede van die span was Skaaf Jacobs, Manie de Jager en Dawie Nortje. Daardie jare het die aflos glo bestaan uit 1 x 880, 1 x 440 en 2 x 220 treë. Jan het die 440 treë gewen. Buiten dat hy ‘n uitblinker atleet was, was hy ook tamboermajoor vir die skool se kadetorkes.

“She was a really blessed and special person” (Contd from P1) To help her heart cope, she received a pacemaker but, inevitably, her heart, which had started to enlarge because of having to work overtime, just could not keep up anymore. She needed a heart transplant immediately or she would have died soon. Against all odds, Zena was blessed to receive a donor heart, with the transplant taking place on 1 December 2018. For her family and friends, this was a Christmas miracle. Due to her wellknown fighting spirit, Zena was also up and about in record time after the transplant, much to the delight of especially her daughters Sky and Li-Amor, who were finishing their high-school careers. Sadly, Zena’s health took a turn for the worse the last couple of weeks. “Basically, what happened is the one valve in the [donor] heart started leaking and had to be replaced by a mechanical valve,” said Zena’s brother, Keith McGuire. Zena left Louis Trichardt and went to stay with Keith in Pretoria after her heart transplant to be closer to the specialists and medical facilities. Zena was isolated in the intensive care unit of the Milpark Hospital to get her ready for the operation. “The doctors had to get her strong enough, because it was a massive operation. They reckoned it was harder than the actual heart transplant itself. But it was an operation she had to have,” said Keith. About three weeks ago, Zena went in for the operation to replace the leaking heart valve. “It was quite a tricky operation and they [the doctors] were actually very scared that she was not even going to make it off the operating table. But once again, she defied all the odds and she got off the table,” said Keith. All was going well, and everybody expected to see Zena back at home in no time at all. “But then the infection set in,” said Keith. Not only did Zena get septicaemia, but she also had a fungus in her blood. “Three minutes past three Sunday afternoon she rang the bell. She had had enough. We were all there by her side. She waited for everybody who needed to be there to get there,” said Keith. At that stage, Zena was kept in an induced coma after her condition turned critical. Keith said that the past couple of weeks had been an extremely difficult time for both Zena and her family. “It has been a horrible nearly three months. There was just not enough wind left in her sails to continue. She was tired and told me that she wanted to go home,” said Keith. Despite the sadness, Keith said that they were grateful for the “bonus” time they had had with Zena. “We were blessed with the extra two-anda-half years she was with us. I think she mainly

stayed for her kids to see them through matric and get them to where they are,” said Keith. Two memorial services will be held for Zena, one on Friday in Louis Trichardt and one in Pretoria on Saturday. She is survived by her daughters Sky and Li-Amor, brother Keith, sister

Karen and grandson Ruwan. People who want more information about the memorial services can phone Keith at Tel 079 519 9094. “She was a really blessed and special person. If there is one person who really put her footprint on this earth, it was Zena,” said Keith.

Hierdie week, 25 jaar gelede in die

Zoutpansberger

Hierdie week, 25 jaar gelede, was ‘n hartseer tyd vir inwoners van die Soutpansberg en die voorblad van die Zoutpansberger van 10 Mei 1996 het daarvan getuig. Die hoofberig het gehandel oor die skool in Eltivillas wat ‘n krisis in die gesig gestaar het, met al meer en meer ouers wat hulle kinders uit die skool begin haal het. Sedert die begin van daardie jaar is 78 leerders deur hulle ouers uit die skool gehaal om vir hulle kinders ‘n beter opvoeding te soek. Die standaard van die skool het begin afneem en die skool het ook nie meer genoeg onderwysers gehad nie. Die ou Standerd 9 sou ook nie meer by die skool aangebied word nie, alhoewel die Onderwysdepartement belowe het dat hulle vyf addisionele onderwysers vir die standerd sou beskikbaar stel. Dit het nooit gebeur nie. Op ‘n tragiese noot is daar ook op die voorblad berig van ‘n bekende speurder van die dorp se vrou, me. Elaine Krause, wat selfmoord gepleeg het. Sy het aan depressie gely en was op medikasie ten tye van haar dood. Eweneens hartseer is die berig oor ‘n egpaar van Louis Trichardt, Johan en Claudette Beytell, wie se driejarige dogtertjie in hulle bure se swembad verdrink het, nadat sy dit reggekry het om oor die muur tussen die twee wonings te klim. Op ‘n meer positiewe noot het ‘n berig op die voorblad verskyn oor ‘n suster wat ná 35 jaar weer met haar familie herenig is. Rudolf Koekemoer

het vertel hoe sy jongste suster, Melinda, op tweejarige ouderdom aangeneem is. Hy was toe drie-en-‘n-half jaar oud gewees. Sedertdien het hy haar nie weer gesien nie. Toe hy sowat 20 jaar oud geword het, het hy in alle erns na sy verlore suster begin soek, maar sy familie wou nie regtig daaroor praat nie, wat dinge bemoeilik het. ‘n Tannie van Rudolf het hom later begin help soek, terwyl Melinda ook uit haar eie na haar familie begin soek het. Melinda is uiteindelik met Rudolf en haar ander broer en suster, Johan en Meisie, herenig.

When the municipality does come out to unblock one part of the sewerage system, another part blocks up again and spews the stinking water into yards and streets. In the mornings and afternoons, children can be seen playing in the smelly streets, even though parents and guardians warn them to stay indoors. “Children will always be children; they sneak out to play outdoors, and we are afraid they might catch dreadful diseases from this raw sewage,” he said. “It seems as if the municipality doesn’t care about our health, and our health is at risk now. I can’t even open the windows because of this terrible smell. My children cannot play outside because of human waste floating down the streets!” he said indignantly. Mudau said that when they had voted five years ago, they had expected positive changes, hoping that the candidates they had voted for would work for the people. He said that the people they had voted for were merely sitting in their offices and not caring about community service. “We are not going to vote in the coming election,” he said.

Leanda lê leisels as president van VLU Noord neer Deur Pétria de Vaal Leanda le Cornu, welbekende inwoner van Louis Trichardt, het al diep spore in die Vroue Landbou-unie (VLU) getrap. Sy het onlangs die leisels as president van VLU Noord aan haar opvolger, Ria Strydom, oorhandig. Ria is van Strewetak in die Bosveld-streek. Le Cornu het die amp as president vir sewe jaar beklee. Sy het egter op 5 Mei, tydens die gesamentlike 25ste en 26ste

Kongres van VLU Noord te Weesgerus Vakansieoord naby Modimolle, die tuig neergelê. Hierdie was ‘n unieke kongres, aangesien dit vir die eerste maal slegs ‘n een-dag kongres was en nie twee dae, soos die gebruik in die verlede was nie. Vanweë Covid-19 is geen kongres in Mei 2020 gehou nie. Twee kongresse se werksaam­ hede is dus vanjaar gekombineer, sodat die 27ste kongres in 2022 gehou kan word. “Die normale ampstermyn

van ‘n president is ses jaar. Ek het egter ‘n jaar addisioneel gedoen as gevolg van Covid-19,” sê Leanda. Sy het reeds in 1995 by die VLU Hanglip-tak in Louis Trichardt aangesluit. In 1997 is sy verkies as voorsitter van hierdie tak. “Op 29 Oktober 2002 het ek die Aandblom-aandtak in Louis Trichardt gestig en was vanaf Januarie 2003 tot 2009 voorsitter,” noem sy. Vanaf 1999 was Leanda aktief betrokke by die Koraalstreek, onder meer in die ampte van

Saam met Agnes staan die bestuurder van Ons Tuiste, me. Kittie de Bruin, wat die sertifikaat aan haar oorhandig het.

sekretaresse, voorsitter en beoordelaar-sameroepster. “In 2004 word ek gekoöpteer as VLU Noord se skakelbeampte (termyn van vier jaar). Die laaste jaar van skakelbeampte en die eerste jaar as Koraalstreekvoorsitter dien ek in beide ampte,” vervolg Leanda. Sy is in 2014 verkies as VLU Noord se president. VLU Noord bestaan uit drie streke, naamlik Bosveld, Koraal (vanaf Alldays, Dendron, Musina, Louis Trichardt tot Polokwane, Tzaneen en Hoedspruit) en Soetdoring. “In totaal het ek vir 16 jaar op VLU Noord se uitvoerende bestuur gedien,” sê sy. SAVLU hou drie-jaarliks kongres. Leanda is in 2015 by hierdie geleentheid verkies as SAVLU se tesouriere. In 2018 is sy in Windhoek verkies as vise-voorsitter. VLU Noord is by die SAVLU geaffilieer. Die volgende SAVLU kongres vind einde Oktober 2021 in Gauteng plaas. “Dit is interessant dat beide VLU Noord en SAVLU ook geaffilieer is by ACWW (Associated Country Women of the World). Tans is die wêreldpresident Magdie de Kock - ‘n Suid-Afrikaanse vrou wat in Heidelberg, Gauteng, woon. Ek is ook ‘n individuele lid van ACWW, sê Leanda. Op ‘n vraag oor hoe Covid-19 haar termyn as president en aktiwiteite beïnvloed het, antwoord Leanda dat dit ‘n inperking op streekbesoeke gehad het, asook op die bywo­ ning van suster-organisasies se

kongresse. “Opleiding kon ook nie gedoen word nie en die be­ plande deelnemerskursus kon nie aangebied word nie. Ons het as gevolg van die pan­demie geleer dat tegnologie ons voertuig kan wees om te ‘VLU’. Tak- en streekvergaderings en selfs ‘n streekkonferensie is deur middel van tegnologie gehou, “ sê Leanda. Sy voeg by dat hulle elke jaar in Augustus onder meer ‘n tema vir die volgende jaar kies. Vanjaar se kongrestema was ‘Koester en Bewaar’ - ‘n tema wat dus in 2019 gekies is vir 2020. “Min het ons geweet hoe vanpas die tema sal wees vanweë Covid-19!” sê Leanda. Leanda gaan beslis nie stilsit noudat sy nie meer president

is nie. “Ek sal steeds waar ek kan geleenthede bywoon as ‘n lid – plaaslik en oorsee. Ek is tans die tak se beoordelaarsameroep­ster en sal altyd by my tak betrokke wees. Ek het ‘n VLU-hart en wil deel wees van VLU. VLU het my die geleentheid gebied om as mens te groei en wonderlike VLU-vriendinne regoor die land en selfs oorsee te maak,” sê Leanda. Sy het enige dame wat belangstel om by die twee plaaslike takke aan te sluit, uitgenooi om haar te skakel. “Ja, selfs werkende dames is welkom omdat daar ‘n aandtak is,” sê Leanda. Sy kan geskakel word by tel. 082 895 8576.

Leanda le Cornu het op 5 Mei die leisels as president van VLU Noord neergelê. Hier is sy afgeneem met die blomme wat sy as blyk van waardering ontvang het. Foto verskaf.

Die net rondom De Melker se jong broer begin al nouer saamtrek Hoe werk die kompetisie? Ons het die eerste hoofstukke van elk van die stories geksryf. Daar is ‘n afonderlike storie vir Afrikaans en Engels. Die uitdaging aan die jong skrywers is om voort te gaan en die volgende hoofstukke vir elk van die stories te kryf. Die stories sal wissel, m.a.w. een week sal die Engelse hoofstuk gepubliseer word en die volgende week die Afrikaanse hoofstuk. Skrywers kan hoofstukke inskryf vir een of beide die stories. Met elke hoofstuk moet die skrywers sover moontlik die bestaande karakters akkommodeer, maar nuwe karakters kan ook in die storie gebring word. Elke Donderdag verskyn ‘n nuwe hoofstuk. Ons jong skrywers het dan tot die volgende Woensdag kans om die volgende hoofstuk te skryf en dit aan ons te stuur. Die beoordeling word gedoen deur ‘n paneel bedrewe skrywers en daar is ‘n kontantprys

Elke inskrywing moet besonderhede insluit van: * Jou naam * Jou ouderdom * Die naam van jou skool * Waar jy woon Elke hoofstuk moet min-

vir elke week se wenner. Na afloop van die kompetisie sal daar ‘n agehele wenner vir beide stories aangewys word.

Is dit moeilik? Ons wil graag al ons jong skrywers aanmoedig om in te skryf. Die skrywer se verbeelding en die wyse waarop die storielyn ontwikkel is meer belangrik as taalkundige vaardigheid. Elk week se weninskrywing sal taalkundig versorg word en aanpassings mag gemaak

eerder oor kreatiwiteit en die wyse waarop die storie ontvou op ‘n spannende en vermaaklike wyse. Ons het geen idee waar enige van die stories gaan eindig nie, so dit is net soveel ‘n avontuur vir ons as vir die skrywers.

Wie mag deelneem?

‘n Ouderdomsperk van 19 word gestel, maar enigiets jonger is aanvaarbaar. Inskrywings word nie beperk tot slegs sekere skole nie, maar die skrywers moet in die Vhembe-distrik woon. Ons sal dit baie waardeer as die taalonderwysers hul leerlinge aanmoedig om in te skryf, maar daar is ongelukkig nie ‘n prys vir die skool met die meeste inskrywings nie. Die volledige storie, soos dit ontwikkel, word op die word om die spanningslyn en koerant se webtuiste gepukontinuïteit te handhaaf. bliseer.

Hierdie week se wen-inskrywing is van Lynique Krüger (18) van Louis Trichardt. Lynique het verlede jaar gematrikuleer aan Hoërskool Louis Trichardt. Sy ontvang R300 vir haar skitterende poging. Die prys word geborg deur die Zoutpansberger.

Onthou, die sluitingsdatum vir inskrywings vir die Afrikaanse verhaal is Woensdag (19 Mei) om 23:00

Beoordelaars se kommentaar Die getal inskrywings het min geraak, maar dit is heeltemal verstaanbaar. Lynique het die verhaal haar eie begin maak en dit is duidelik dat sy reeds ‘n einde in gedagte het. Dit gaan bitter moeilik wees vir iemand om die storie by haar “weg te neem” en ‘n nuwe rigting in te slaan. Miskien is dit net die uit-

daging wat ‘n paar van ons jong skrywers se verbeelding gaan aangryp. Lynique het in hoofstuk sewe die drade begin saamvat. Die feit dat Werner nie dood is nie kom duidelik nou na vore en Aletta se skaduwee as moordverdagte begin taan. In die oorblywende drie hoofstukke gaan die fokus nou op die detail moet wees. Hoe het die mans gesterf? Was dit moord? Gaan die skuldiges

gevang word? En natuurlik, gaan Anneke en Johan mekaar vind en in die laaste toneel hande vashou en wegstap terwyl die son oranjerooi oor die horison wegsak (soos ‘n romantiese Spaghetti Western)? Miskien sorg ons jong skrywers dat daar vir oulaas nog ‘n dramatiese wending is. Ons kan net opgewonde wag vir die volgende hoofstuk om te arriveer.

Wat vooraf gebeur het? Aletta de Melker, ‘n hoofkarakter in die storie, is ‘n eksentrieke voormalige dokter wat op haar eie in ‘n reuse dubbelverdiepinggebou aan die kant van die dorp woon. Drie jaar gelede, terwyl sy as dokter werksaam was by die hospitaal, het ‘n reeks jong mans gesterf. Die rede vir die sterftes kon nooit presies bepaal word nie, maar druk is uitgeoefen op De Melker om vroeg af te tree. Inspekteur Johan Faber en

HOOFSTUK SEWE Deur Lynique Krüger

D

aar is ‘n hartseer stemming wat heers in die myndorpie. Dit is die dag van die begrafnis van die myn se voormalige hoofbestuurder, Ian. Anneke weet sy moenie wees nie, maar sy is tog dankbaar daarvoor. Dit beteken die myn is stil en sy kan uiteindelik met een van die voormanne gaan praat. Sy het gewonder hoekom hy nie begrafnis toe is nie, maar sy wou nie enige onnodige vrae vra nie. Die oom se naam is Leon Opperman, sien sy op sy naamplaatjie. Terwyl hulle gesels, stap hulle deur die kantore van die myngeboue. “Oom, wat kan oom my vertel van Aletta de Melker?” Hy kyk na Anneke en ‘n klein glimlaggie ontluik onder sy baard. Hy herinner Anneke effens aan Kersvader. “Aletta se pa was ‘n fantastiese mynwerker, ek kan jou soveel sê.” Iets in Anneke flikker, ‘n denkbeeldige liggie wat aangeskakel word. “Het Aletta se pa by die myn gewerk?” “Nie net hy nie, hierdie myn is deel van die De

‘n befaamde kriminoloog, Anneke Wagner, word aangestel om die sterftes te ondersoek. Faber vind uit dat De Melker ‘n jonger broer gehad het. Terwyl hulle ‘n leidraad opvolg word daar vanuit ‘n plaasskuur op hulle geskiet. Faber en Wagner ontvang ‘n uitnodiging om die plaaslike myn se jaarlikse dans by te woon. Tydens die funksie sak die myn se hoofbestuurder, Ian, skielik inmekaar en sterf kort daarna in die hospitaal. Terwyl Anneke en Johan by die hospitaal is, daag De Melker ook op. De Melker roep Anneke eenkant en

probeer haar verseker dat sy niks met die sterftes te doen gehad het nie. De Melker se broer, Werner, is egter nie dood nie en woon saam met Aletta in die huis. Sy voel skuldig omdat sy gedwing is om Werner se dood te vervals. Sy glo egter dat die mense eendag sal besef dat sy nie skuldig is aan die moorde nie. Die romanse tussen Anneke Wagner en Johan Faber begin opvlam en tydens ‘n ete by die plaaslike familie restaurant leer hulle meer omtrent mekaar. (Word vervolg)

Melker-mans se geskiedenis. Elke De Melker-man het hier kom werk.” “En Aletta se oorlede broer, Werner de Melker?” Die oom se oë gaan na sy skoene toe en hy is vir ‘n lang ruk stil. “Werner was … anders. Die kind wou so graag in die myn kom werk, maar hy was nie ‘n sterk genoeg man nie. Hy’t fisies gesukkel en hy’t niks geweet van die mynwerk af nie. Al sy tyd het aan wetenskap en biologiese studies gegaan, so toe weier sy pa dat hy in die myn kom werk.” Aletta frons die tipe frons wat sy altyd gehad het toe sy wiskunde huiswerk gekry het op skool. “So, Aletta se pa het Werner gedwing om weg te bly? Waarheen is hy dan?” vra sy, haar kop vol vrae. “Die mannetjie het daarna basies verdwyn. Hy’t nooit weer teruggekom nie en het skaars gepraat met ons dorpsmense, nog minder ons wat van die myn af kom. Dit was vir hom verskriklik om die eerste De Melker-man te wees in die

geskiedenis van De Melkers om nie hier te kan werk nie,” vertel die oom met ‘n stem wat iewers tussen simpatie en onrus skuil. “Oom weet baie van die De Melker-familie af, klink dit my?” Die oom kry ‘n klein, warm glimlaggie op sy gesig. “Ek en hulle pa, Jacques, was baie na aan mekaar. Ek en hy is al deur baie saam. Die slapelose nagte oor Aletta en al die mannetjies wat by haar probeer vlerksleep het en oor Werner wat sy snaakse woedeuitbarstings gekry het.” Skielik hoor Anneke die bekende stem van Johan wat agter hulle aanroep. Sy draai dadelik om en sien hoe Johan na haar toe hardloop. “Anneke, ek’t iets gekry,” sê hy uitasem. Anneke kyk hom vraend aan en wag op ‘n antwoord. “Aletta De Melker se broer, Werner? Ek dink nie hy’s regtig dood nie.” (Word vervolg)

Fifteen years prison time for explosives smugller Court News The Directorate for Priority Crime Investigation in Limpopo has welcomed the conviction and sentencing of Brighton Chuma (27) by the Musina Regional Court for smuggling explosives. On 17 December 2020, Chuma was travelling from Zimbabwe to South Africa in a Toyota Hilux double cab when he was stopped and searched at the Beitbridge port of entry by the police. Upon searching

the vehicle, 32 blasting cartridges of explosives to the value of R 95 000 were found hidden in the loading portion, covered with packed bags, and the accused was subsequently arrested. The case was referred to the Hawks’ Serious Organised Crime Investigation team, which successfully opposed Chuma’s bail bid during his trial until his conviction on 6 May last week. The court sentenced him to an effective 15 years’ direct imprisonment without the option of a fine.

To RSVP and arrange for submissions, please contact: 1. Ms Tintswalo Shiringani – telephone no. 015 519 3030; or 2. Mr Kutelani Sigidi – telephone no. 015 519 3110/3041 NB.:

According to SANRAL, this section of the R572, as well as Elias Ramuthiveli Street, between Samuel Ramabulana Street and the R572, will be closed to enable construction to proceed on sections of the new N1 Musina Ring Road as well as the realigned R572 and Elias Ramuthi­ veli Street. “Road users wishing to access the R572 from the Musina and Beitbridge directions, as well as from Elias Ramuthiveli Street, will be affected.

From Musina along the N1 in the direction of Beit Bridge, turn left opposite P&L Hardware into Ralph Small Street and continue along Ralph Small street until the intersection with Freedom and Elias Ramuthiveli Streets. “SANRAL apologises for any inconvenience caused and appreciates the cooperation and patience of road users during the construction period. We furthermore appeal to motorists to approach construction areas with caution, to reduce speed and always be on the lookout for pedestrians and construction workers. We will endeavour to complete the work as soon as possible,” says Hennie Kotze, SANRAL project manager.

Lambs Neck Potjie

All your businesses on one page

By Denise van Bergen We discovered an actual, qualified chef for this week’s edition of our recipe column. This magnificent potjie is one of Mutshidzi Musekwa’s own creations that she has been working on for her cookbook and, knowing her expertise in the kitchen, is sure to be out-of-this-world good. She added a little western flavour to it, while keeping it largely traditional at the same time.

4 tbsp oil 1kg lambs neck, cut into pieces salt and pepper *to taste 5 baby onions, peeled and halved 1 garlic bulb, cloves separated and peeled 4 tbsp coriander seeds, roughly crushed 2 tbsp cumin seeds 2 tsp dried chilli flakes 2 tbsp tomato paste 2 sprigs rosemary 4 sprigs thyme 250ml red wine /Krush berry juice 250ml lamb stock 4 fingerling potatoes, halved 1 pack of yellow patty pans 4 carrots, peeled and cut into chunks 30g fresh coriander, chopped Cooking Instructions:

Heat oil in a cast-iron pot over the fire. Season the lamb generously with salt and pepper, then brown in the hot oil. Add the onions and cook until they are browned. Add garlic, crushed coriander seeds, cumin, chilli flakes, tomato paste, rosemary, and thyme. Stir and cook for a minute. Deglaze the pot with red wine/berry juice (wine has more flavour than the juice) and lamb stock. Stir again. Layer the potatoes on top, followed by the carrots and patty pans and season with salt and pepper. Do not stir again. Close the lid and leave to simmer gently for two hours, or until the meat is tender (test it by piercing the meat with a knife, but DO NOT stir the potjie again while it cooks). You may need to add extra lamb stock during cooking. Stir in the fresh, chopped coriander just before serving. Best served with fresh, home-baked bread. Mutshidzi is from a small township called Biaba Mountain View in the Nzhelele area. After she had matriculated, she enrolled for a course in culinary arts at the International Hotel School in Pretoria and did her practical examinations at the Radisson Blu, a 5-star hotel in Sandton, Johannesburg. Thus, she turned her passion for cooking into a successful profession. Today she has her own eatery, called Blissful Eats with Kim, and does quite well for herself. As kids we are taught to never “play with our food”, but for this 23-year-old chef, this forms the essence of her profession. Creating “magic” on a plate is what truly brings her to life. Mutshidzi caters for private dinners and small private or corporate groups, does platters, and menu planning besides. She even launched her own branded range of sauces. She enjoys spending her free time relaxing with her partner or “hanging out” with her friends. Some alone time is equally important to her. While preparing good food for her customers is undoubtedly her greatest passion, cooking for her loved ones and sharing each new creation with them takes Mutshidzi’s happiness to another level – bliss.

Left: Ridgeway College’s Grade 8 and 9 learners, fuelled by the enthusiasm and innovative teaching of Ms Hannah Waller, were recent challenged to create a sculpture using the Japanese Art of Folding, Origami. “Origami holds many benefits for children, including the development of problem-solving skills, improving diligence and accuracy, developing the skills to follow detailed instructions, sharpening the memory and imagination, improving spatial visualisation and fine motor skills, as well as channelling creativity,” said the school. They received some lovely entries and are incredibly proud of the efforts the children have made in creating these beautiful sculptures. Pictured is Grade 9 winner Anesu Mapfumo’s creation. In the Grade 9 category, a certificate for creativity went to Lufuno Magada, while certificates for effort went to Zohra Osman and Charity Mashego. Photo supplied.

SAVF hosts family art competition Competition Covid-19 and all its pains and challenges caused a new technology bloom and this year, international Day of the Family will be celebrated under the theme “Families and New Technologies” on 15 May. In honour of this day, the South African Women’s Federation (SAVF) in Louis Trichardt is hosting an art competition for children aged 4 to 13 years. “Families come in all shapes and sizes, and at the SAVF Louis Trichardt, we love to celebrate all families. Families are the most important influences in a child’s life, and we strive to support all families to be their best!” said the local SAVF team. The entry fee for the art competition is R10 per artwork. The size of the artwork should be A3, and any medium is allowed. More than one entry per person is allowed, provided that each entry is in a different medium. The theme of the artwork is “Family” as perceived by the child. “There is no right or wrong – even animals can be part of the family,” said the SAVF. The categories are 4 to 6 years, 7 to 10 years, and 11 to 13 years. “Please write the child’s name and age on the back of the entry,” said the SAVF. The entries will be judged by independent judges and prizes will be awarded to the winners in all categories. The closing date for entries is 28 May and the winners will be announced on 1 June this year. Entries can be submitted at the SAVF’s office in Breda Street behind Louis Trichardt High School’s rugby fields. For more information, phone Friede on Tel 015 516 3841 or 071 628 7949. The international theme of how families deal with technology in their midst is crucial for the SAVF. For them, embrace, empower, connect, balance, and protect are key words when families address new technology. “Empower yourself and others as parents through technology. Good parenting training, webinars and articles are available online,” said Erna Rheeder from SAVF Famnet. Regarding balance, Rheeder said that to work from home meant you had more time for work. “Yet, work wisely with your time. Put a beginning and an end to it. Set a definite beginning to family time. You have to set the example in family time as a value and practise self-discipline to cherish that value,” said Rheeder. The longer we work on computers, said Rheeder, the more physical pains and spasms we experience. “Exercise, walking, running, cycling, and playing ball as a family are great ways to prevent and get rid of pains,” said Rheeder. Most importantly, people need to protect and empower their children regarding technology. “Together with all the benefits of technology, comes exposure to pornography, cyber bullying and other threats. Get information about apps and other ways to protect your child. Empower your child with ways of self-protection,” said Rheeder.
