Dit is nou nie iets wat mens sommer elke dag sien nie ... die skoolhoof van Hoërskool Louis Trichardt vasgeplak aan die muur - nogal in skooltyd! Die hoof, mnr. Louis Cilliers, het toegelaat dat leerlinge hom met duct tape aan die muur kon vasplak. Alles was darem gelukkig vir ‘n goeie doel. Leerlinge moes R5 betaal vir ‘n strook kleefband. Die fondse wat ingesamel is, sal gaan om die skool se eerste meisieshokkiespan se toeronkoste te help betaal. Foto verskaf.

Hof bevind deler net so skuldig soos steler

(Vervolg van p. 1) Soos wat die ondersoek gevorder het, het DNS-toetse verder gewys dat die horings behoort het aan ‘n renosterbul bekend op Mapungubwe as Die Swerwer.

Met die aanvang van hul verhoor het al ses mans onskuldig gepleit op die klagte wat teen hulle gebring is. Tlou se weergawe het ook dramaties verander. Hy het beweer dat hy en sy medebeskuldigdes tot in hul verklarings gemoker is deur lede van die Groen Skerpioene. Hierdie weergawe het landdros Coetzee later bevind hou geen water nie, nadat hy foto’s ondersoek het van die Skerpioene wat bewys het hoe die beskuldigdes saam met die ondersoekspan lag en eet. Manengena, Lebala en Masolo het ook later hul pleit verander na een van skuldig. Volgens Landdros Coetzee was dit alleenlik omdat hulle besef het hulle gaan nie die selfoongetuienis van die Staat kan weg verduidelik nie,

wat bewys hoe hulle kontak met mekaar gehad het, en in die omgewing van Den Staat was. Coetzee het met groot lof gepraat van die Groen Skerpioene se ondersoek en die deeglike wyse waarop die staatsaanklaer, Hilke Janse van Rensbrug, dit aangebied het. In die oorweging van ‘n gepaste vonnis het landdros Coetzee daarop gewys dat, ingevolge Suid-Afrikaanse wetgewing, die deler so goed soos die steler is en daarom het hy almal skuldig bevind. Behalwe vir Masuze, wat nie direk betrokke was by die doodmaak van die renoster nie, is die res almal 15 jaar direkte gevangenisstraf opgelê. Masuze is gevangenisstraf opgelê van 10 jaar.

Plaaslike teaterstuk opgevoer by Vrystaatse Kunstefees uPCafé te sien was. Marcel verduidelik dat hy reeds begin het om Amarikana se teks te skaaf, sodat dit met meer diepte aangebied kan word vir ‘n gehoor wat noodgedwonge verder verwyder van die verhoog is. Verder verwerk hy ook die teks om te sentreer om die metafoor “tap”. “Die koffie word getap uit ‘n boon, die myne tap uit die aarde en dag-vir-dag ook uit die myners wat ondergronds moet werk,” verduidelik Marcel. Buiten vir die ink in sy are, is daar nóg ander verborge talente wat Marcel sal aanwend ter voorbereiding vir die Vrystaat Kunstefees. In die ope kategorie, waarin Amarikana sal deelneem, word daar van die kunstenaar verwag om ook die stelkuns, regie, musiek en bemarking te doen. Derhalwe het Marcel sommer self ingespring en die advertensieplakkaat vir Amarikana ontwerp. Die skets, wat ‘n kombinasie is van ‘n skets geverf met kof-

fie en rekenaar grafieke en foto’s, sentreer om die tema en metafoor van Amarikana. Onderwyl Marcel besig is met al dié voorbereidings, maak hy ook tyd om saam met die toneelgroep van Hoërskool Louis Trichardt te oefen. Die skool se groep is uitgenooi om deel te neem aan die Reza de Wet Tienertoneelfees, wat aangebied word saam met die Vrystaat Kunstefees, ongeveer dieselfde tyd as wat Marcel Amarikana daar sal opvoer. “Dit is ‘n ongelooflike voorreg, want skole mag net deelneem op uitnodiging,” het Marcel gesê. Hoërskool Louis Trichardt sal ‘n nuwe toneel, getiteld Transparant, opvoer by die fees. Plaaslike gehore, het Marcel belowe, sal ‘n geleentheid hê om beide stukke te sien voor dit in die Vrystaat opgevoer sal Marcel van Niekerk in die rol as Adam toe hy vir die eerste keer Amari word. Datums en tye sal nader aan die tyd kana opgevoer het hier in Louis Trichardt. bekend gemaak word.

‘n Teaterstuk wat eerste te sien was hier in Louis Trichardt is uitgenooi na die Vrystaatse Kunstefees. Amarikana, uit die pen van plaaslike verhoogman Marcel van Niekerk, sal later vanjaar by dié gesogte kunstefees opgevoer word. Marcel is bekend vir sy storietalent en van die toneelstukke wat hy al geskryf het, sluit in Stemtoon, Harnas en Ses209 - almal vir die tienertoneel verhoog. Amarikana verskil in baie opsigte van sy vorige stukke, maar bied nog steeds dieper stof tot nadenke vir sy gehoor. Die wyse waarop hy die teks aanbied wys ook hoe Marcel die lewe dophou. Hy hou daagliks boek van die interessante stories van die dag, of soos hy dit beskryf, “Daardie stories wat gewoonlik afgeskuif word na die agterblaaie van ‘n koerant.” In Amarikana vertolk Marcel die rol van die verteller-hoofkarakter Adam, wat sy storie deel met Jane en die gehoor. Die inspirasie vir die stuk was die bloedbad wat ontstaan het tydens stakings en protesoptogte by die Lonminmyn naby Rustenburg in Augustus 2012. Tydens dié opstand is 44 mense dood en nog heelwat meer mense beseer. Die Amarikana wat Marcel in die Vrystaat sal opvoer, sal in ‘n heel ander gedaante opgevoer word as toe dit verlede jaar vir die eerste keer hier in die Die lokplakaat van Amarikana wat Marcel van Niekerk self ontwerp.

Vrou in hof oor polisie se teefonds Bishop Emmanuel Miriri baptises Ms Angie Roos.

‘n Administratiewe lid van die Makhado Polisie het verlede week in die Louis Trichardt Distrikshof verskyn op klagte van bedrog en diefstal. Audrey Botha (44) van Levu bu word daarvan beskuldig dat sy duisende rande by die plaaslike polisie verduister het.

Volgens haar klagstaat se aanhangsel is daar gedurende 2014 etlike tjeks, met bedrae wat wissel tussen R1 000 en R6 000, waarvoor daar nie rekenskap gegee kan word nie. Botha sou glo die tjeks, uit die polisie se teefonds, uitmaak en verklaar as dienste of produkte

wat aangeskaf is tot voordeel van die prisoniers. Die totale bedrag van al die tjeks beloop R35 340.55. Botha is nie gevra om te pleit nie en haar saak is uitgestel tot 25 April vir verdere ondersoek. Dit was die tweede keer dat sy op die klagte verskyn het.

Laerskool Louis Trichardt se leerlinge het op 4 en 7 Maart deelgeneem aan ‘n plaaslike rondte van die ATKV se jaarlikse skole redenaarskompetisie. Hierdie groepie seniors, afgerig deur juffrou Eunice Porter, het gekwalifiseer om deel te neem aan die eerste uitdunrondte van die kompetisie wat vanaf 14 tot 15 April in Polokwane gehou sal word. Voor, van links na regs, is Sarisa van der Goot (Graad 7), Wessel Furstenberg (Graad 2) en Sonita Alberts (Graad 6). Agter is juf.

De Beers Venetia Mine presented a cheque to the value of R46 388 to the Cancer Association of South Africa (Cansa), located in Polokwane, last week. These funds were raised during the Venetia Mine annual Cansa Shavathon, in which 773 employees and contracting partners donated a total of R23 194 by having their hair shaved or sprayed in different colours. The amount raised by employee volunteers was matched by De Beers and the resulting R46 388 will be used towards mobile cancer testing units, which will service the rural areas of Limpopo and do cancer education and awareness in the area. Ms Susan Nortjé, senior project planner at Ve-

netia Mine and a passionate cancer survivor who lost both her parents to the disease, thanked Cansa for their exceptional work, particularly in assisting those members of the community who do not have access to a medical aid. Venetia Corporate Affairs Manager Ms Josephine Pieters addressed the employee volunteers involved in the outreach and thanked them for their passion and energy. She commended the Cansa Shavathon for the good work they continued to do. “We look forward to seeing how the funds raised by our Diamond Ambassadors at Venetia Mine will make a difference in our labour-sending areas of Musina and Blouberg.”

Wyle mev. Anneline le Roux (73). Foto verskaf.

Wyle Anneline, eggenote van mnr. Boet le Roux van Mollevel Voerkraal, was bekend vir haar knap handwerk en was vir etlike jare voorsitter van die SAVF op Alldays. “Sy was absoluut ‘n tuisteskepper,” het haar dogter Mimi aan die Zoutpansberger gesê. Buiten vir vlytige hande, was Anneline ook ‘n kranige skrywer met haar geestelike E-boek, Die Wingerdstok, wat ‘n paar maande voor haar dood gepubliseer is. Wyle Anneline is op 13 Mei 1942 in Ceres in die Kaap gebore en voltooi haar skoolloopbaan onderskeidelik op Alldays en die destydse Messina. “Sy het my pa in April 1970 ontmoet, toe sy saam met vriende van Messina op die plaas Mollevel gekuier het,” vertel Mimi. Die egpaar is in 1972 getroud en drie kinders, Pieter, Annette en Mimi, is uit die huwelik gebore. “Van hulle mekaar op die plaas ontmoet het 43 jaar gelede, het sy tot haar dood op die plaas gebly,” voeg Mimi by. Wyle Anneline word oorleef deur haar man, kinders Pieter (met skoondogter San), Annette (met skoonseun Hannes) en Mimi (met skoonseun Lourens), broers Jannie, Bennie en Basson, suster Annette en sewe kleinkinders. Sy is Woensdag, 16 Maart, vanuit die NG Kerk Louis Trichardt-gemeente in Louis Trichardt begrawe. Die diens is waargeneem deur ds. Jan Pretorius. “Dank gaan aan die hele gemeenskap vir julle woorde van vertroosting en ondersteuning. Ons wil nie regtig mense uitsonder nie, want daar is net te veel name om te noem. Tog wil ons egter ‘n spesiale dankie sê aan dr. Pieter de Wet en die hele personeel van die Zoutpansberg Privaathospitaal,” sê Mimi.

riteit. As deel van die opknappingswerk is daar ook verskeie nuwe dienste wat aan klante beskikbaar sal wees in die nuwe winkel. “Klante sal kan uitsien na warm kos wat uit die nuwe deli verkoop sal word. Mense sal nou daagliks hul middag- of aandete klaar gekook kan kom koop. Vanaf 1 April sal Christelle Leonard by ons aansluit. Sy sal die deli hanteer, asook kwaliteitbeheer toepas,” het Enslin gesê. Nog ‘n nuwigheid wat Enslin gaan inbring by Soutpansberg Spar is Spar se Bean Tree-konsep. Dit is basies ‘n spasie waar klante ‘n ordentlike koppie filterkoffie sal kan geniet, tesame met heerlike gebak. “Dit sal egter nie ‘n eetarea wees waar warm etes geniet kan word nie,” het Enslin gesê. Enslin sê hy is bewus van die probleem met parkering by Soutpansberg Spar. “Ons is tans in onderhandeling met die Makhado Munisipaliteit om te probeer vir addisionele parkering in die park oorkant die sentrum. Om die druk op die parkering te verlig, het ek ook die hoeveelheid betaalpunte na agt vermeerder om klante vinniger deur die winkel te kry,” het Enslin gesê. Volgens Enslin beoog hulle om die nuwe winkel amptelik op 1 Junie te heropen. “Tot dan vra ons om verskoning vir die ongerief met die bouwerk. Wees egter verseker dat, by voltooiing, die huidige ontwrigting die moeite werd sal wees,” het Enslin gesê.

Motoring Supplement Easter Weekend road safety starts with YOU Road Safety

The Easter holidays are just around the corner - a time for everyone to take a break from work and school. During this time, people celebrate at different holiday destinations in and around South Africa. It is for this reason that we not only see increased road usage over this time, but our roads are known to see an increase in car crashes – some even fatal. “In fact, last Easter’s preliminary results indicated that a total of 287 people lost their lives on the roads during this time – as a result of the 208 crashes that happened - which was much higher than the

previous year,” states Imperial Road Safety in a media statement as part of the annual Arrive Alive campaign. It is for this reason that Imperial Road Safety will once again focus their efforts on educating road users about road safety, to leave awareness of safe road usage and responsible driving uppermost in the minds of consumers. In light of this, Imperial Road Safety is giving all road users a few tips on safe driving habits and encouraging everyone to take a zero-tolerance stance towards bad driving habits on our roads. “Make it start with you!” they state. Here are a few I-Pledge tips to keep you safe on the roads this Easter: * Ensure you take your vehicle for a complete check-up at least two weeks before you depart for vacation to ensure all critical elements such as brakes, engine, tyres, etc. are in full working order * Wear your safety belt at all times and ensure to strap your children in. Make sure they are strapped into a proper, height-relevant car seat and not just into the seatbelts on the back seat. * Do not speed and

remember to keep a safe following distance – you should keep a distance of three car lengths between you and the car in front of you. * Never overtake on a blind rise or in a corner. * Make sure that you are always visible by driving with your headlights on, even during the day. * Adjust your driving to suit weather, road surface or traffic-flow conditions. * Always drive a good 20km per hour slower at night.

* Stay alert by getting a good night’s rest before a long journey and take a break every two hours or 200 kilometres. * Never drink and drive! If you want to join nearly 600 000 South African’s in committing to road safety, you can make your pledge by taking the Imperial Road Safety pledge at www.ipledge.co.za.

New Chev range sure to impress The road - a simple path, and yet it’s come to mean so much more. Perhaps the real reason roads are special, is that each one leads to someplace we are not, but could be. At Chevrolet, they believe that roads are people’s springboards. They challenge them, taunt them and guide them to create better, more exciting, more ingenious ways to move through life. They drive them to places people have never been before. One new road the Chevrolet team has pursued has led them to the new range of 2016 Chevrolet utility vehicles. The whole range, soon to arrive here in Louis Trichardt, will now have a passenger airbag deactivation switch on all models (a segment first) that enables the front passenger seat to be used with a rear-facing baby seat, or with a small child seated comfortably and safely.

The sports models will also bring another segment first - standard cruise control. Chevrolet guarantees buyers a first-class design experience and comfort the minute they climb into the driver’s seat of the new Chev utility range. The 1.4-litre UTE provides excellent fuel economy (7.2L per 100Km) and unmatched power (68KW @ 120 Nm), making sure the job gets done for less. Driver and passenger airbags are standard on all models. The Club and Sport models contain so much more than people would expect in a small bakkie, such as automatic headlights-on, automatic door locking on drive-away, and “Lead Me To The Car” lighting. “It’s the power of technology working for you,” said the Louis Trichardt Imperial GM team.

Motoring Supplement New Toyota Hilux now tougher then ever before rigidity whilst also increasing durability. The number of connection points from chassis frame to upper body has been increased, accomThe new Hilux arrived in Louis Trichardt panied by a 45% increase in spot welds (from tougher and fresher than ever before. 268 in the previous generation to 388). ContribA striking feature, which stands out for the uting to the durability of the new model is a new new Hilux, is probably its advanced exterior deheavy-duty under-cover with additional reinsign. For the new Hilux, the design team focused forcement and increased thickness. The stronger on creating a vehicle that would ooze power and chassis and new body serve as the basis for the overall revised suspension that provides excellent performance across the board. For buyers venturing off-road, the new Hilux is naturally available in part-time four-wheel-drive derivatives, building on the acclaim of its forefathers. A highlight of the new system is the electronic rotary 4WD switch, housed within the dashboard, which replaces the previously employed ‘second gear lever’, offering greater ease of use. Powering the new Hilux will be a range of newly developed engines that offer improved power output, efficiency and refinement.

safety. Underpinning the new model is an all-new frame, which is designed to combine improved handling, ride comfort, NVH performance and collision safety with outstanding durability in even the most extreme driving environments. Improvements include 30mm thicker side rails and cross members that deliver 20% greater torsional

a number of advancements to provide a superb driving experience both on- and off-road. The GD series engines are offered in 2.4 and 2.8 litre guise, with both versions placing strong emphasis on torque output and low-speed tractability. Both variants make use of DOHC, 16-valve, four-cylinder inline architecture and utilise Variable Nozzle Turbocharger (VNT) technology, which delivers the compressed air through a new front-mounted intercooler. Serving as the diesel flagship, the 2755cc GD engine offers buyers a stout 130 kW and effortless 420Nm from 1600 to 2400 rpm in manual guise – automatic transmission versions will receive a boost to 450Nm over the same rpm span. Forming the link between the advanced new engines and the driven wheels are all-new, slick 5 - and 6-speed transmissions. Workhorse models are equipped with a rugged 5-speed manual transmission, with higher-grade models receiving an option of either a 6-speed manual or 6-speed automatic transmission. Pricing of the new Hilux remains very competitive, with some models actually being priced lower than the versions they replace, despite a significant upgrade in specification. The single cab will range between R228 900 to R435 900, with the Xtra Cab ranging from R333 900 to R470 900 and the double cab from R377 900 to R593 900.

Motoring Supplement Minister outlines plans to curb road fatalities Road Safety

South Africa still has a long way to go to reduce the current rate of road fatalities by 50% to realistically meet the international aspirational goals laid out by the United Nations Decade of Action for Road Safety 2011-2020 (UNDA) by 2020. This is one of many aspects highlighted by Minister of Transport Ms Dipuo Peters during the Road Safety Strategy and Engagement Summit held at Gallagher Estate on 12 March. Minister Peters led deliberations and discussions during the summit, which sought to mobilise all stakeholders (including non-governmental bodies) to improve the country’s road safety record in line with UNDA. Road safety has become an issue that is critical to the country’s economy and society at large, hence the need for decisive policies and strategies to address the problem. “…the National Department of Transport has undertaken the task to mobilise views of stakeholders in the transport community, to contribute in the formulation of a road safety strategy for the country,” Peters said in her keynote speech. This strategy, she explained, will serve as a blueprint for all road safety interventions that the government must implement in all communities, villages, townships and cities to make the country’s roads safer for the coming four years. This summit follows engagement sessions that were held in various provinces last week to discuss and deliberate on what should constitute our national road safety strategy. “It is an undeniable fact that South Africa has a serious challenge with regard to road safety. As a country we reported a road death rate of 23.5 per 100 000 people in 2014, when the global average is 17.4 fatalities per 100 000 people. Middle-income countries like ours record an average of 18.4 fatalities per 100 000 people. The importance of road safety to the economy and society at large provides a convincing case for decisive policies and strategies to address the problem,” Peters

said. Peters said that South Africa had in the past experienced reduced road traffic fatalities, with the figures decreasing fairly steadily from 15 419 in 2006 to 12 702 in 2014. This, she said, is still not in line with the UNDA’s goal of achieving a 50% reduction by 2020. “As part of this commitment, we are meeting here today as stakeholders, representatives of our people and road safety activists to develop a new, goals-based Road Safety Strategy that embodies the principles of the ‘Safe System’ approach and gives effect to the five pillars of the UNDA. Best practice countries demonstrate the importance of a clear approach to road safety that details the key problem areas to be addressed by an effective road safety strategy,” Peters said. The summit therefore also aimed to start the mobilisation of stakeholders to improve the country’s road safety record ahead of the Easter weekend. “Long weekends and payday weekends are periods in which the country experiences an increase in road deaths. In March/April 2016, we will have two consecutive long weekends with paydays, which means our law enforcement agencies must be on high alert. We will officially unveil our plan for the Easter Season in Limpopo next Friday, 18 March 2016,” Peters said. According to Peters, an economic and financial analysis of road crashes points to the need to improve road safety in the country. This, she said, will enable South Africans to live long, productive lives and fiscal resources can be freed to focus on the important business of socio-economic development. As a participant of the UNDA, Peters said, South Africa has endorsed the global undertaking to save up to 5 million lives and contribute to preventing up to 50 million serious injuries by 2020. “It is evident that we need to work harder and smarter to reduce accidents, fatalities and injuries; inculcate good road-user behaviour; encourage voluntary compliance; and reduce road accident costs,” Peters said.

Top award for BB’s Johan Rootman Johan Rootman, dealer principal of BB Mount Fuji (Nissan) in Louis Trichardt, walked away last week with a certificate as a Top-10 finalist in the annual National Automobile Dealer’s Association (NADA) and the Sewells Group’s awards ceremony in Johannesburg. Rootman was announced Top-10 finalist in the Small Dealership category, with some 1 500 dealerships competing in the competition which includes categories for medium and large businesses as well. NADA is a professional non-profit association representing the interest of businesspersons who own or operate new-vehicle franchise dealerships and qualifying-used-car-only out-

A good year for local nut farmers Agricultural News

Ad designed by Zoutnet Publishers

TIME: DATE: VENUE:

Green Farms CEO Jill Whyte addresses local macadamia growers in Levubu on 7 March about the company’s annual back pay. Photo supplied.

The Green Farms Nut Company (GFNC) hosted their annual offer meeting at their macadamia nut processing factory in Levubu last week. This was the third in a series of meetings held at GNFC’s various factories in Limpopo, Mpumalanga and KwaZula Natal. Not only has GFNC been a key role player in the industry, it is also one of the country’s oldest and largest processors and marketers of macadamia nuts.

Green Farms CEO Jill Whyte addressed Levubu farmers, along with her Australian and South American colleagues from the marketing company Green and Gold Nuts. Key topics that came under discussion were the importance of opening new markets, the Chinese and South American markets and the announcement of the annual back pay. Back pay is the profit share paid back to farmers at the end of each season. For 2015, GNFC paid out 22.3%, the highest in rand value

the company has ever paid out. The company explained that it was able to achieve such exceptional pay-outs because it used a profit-sharing business model in which it offered suppliers 100% of all sales and exchange benefits earned by their crop, over and above the offer GFNC made at the beginning of the season. GFNC thanked their farmers for 25 years of loyal service and announced that they looked forward to many more years as the premier partner for macadamia nut farmers in the industry.

Georganiseerde landbou vestig veiligheidstruktuur Landelike veiligheid in Limpopo het ‘n nuwe tydvak betree toe die landelike veiligheidstrukture van TLU SA Noord en Agri Limpopo op 8 Maart in Polokwane ‘n gesamentlike slypskool gehou het om te besin oor landelike veiligheid. Volgens ‘n gesamentlike persverklaring is die bestaande en goed-ontwikkelde landelike veiligheidstrukture van die twee georganiseerde landbou-organisasies nog altyd ‘n sterk groepering. “Hierdie goed-georganiseerde landelike veiligheidstrukture is nou saamgevoeg, waaruit Limpopo Landelike Veiligheid Struktuur tot stand gekom het,” lees die verklaring. Die nuwe Limpopo Landelike Veiligheid Struktuur sal ten nouste met die SAPD saamwerk, vanaf polisiestasievlak tot by die SAPD se provinsiale bevelstruktuur, waar daar reeds sedert 2015 goeie betrekkinge tussen die SAPD se topbestuur en georganiseerde landbou bestaan. “Hierdie betrekkinge sal deur die nuwe struktuur voortgesit en uitgebou word,” sê die organisasies. Die slypskool, met ‘n bekende in landelike veiligheidskringe, mnr. Japie van der Goot, as fasiliteerder, het kleinere probleme geïdentifiseer wat gesamentlik aangespreek en opgelos sal word. Bestaande hulpmiddele en mannekrag sal nou meer gekoördineerd aangewend word. Gesamentlike kommunikasiekanale sal gevestig word en ander

gemeenskaplike probleme, wat van area tot area verskil, sal nou onder die nuutgevormde, sterker groep hanteer word. “Limpopo Landelike Veiligheid Struktuur sal ook in daardie gebiede waar landelike veiligheid nog nie voldoende gevestig is nie, aandag gee,” lees die verklaring. Mnre. Willem van Jaarsveld van Agri Limpopo en Drickus Botha van TLU SA Noord het albei hulle dank en waardering teenoor hulle lede uitgespreek vir die positiewe wyse waarop hierdie gemeenskaplike landelike probleem die hoof gebied kan word.

Die nuutgestigte Limpopo Landelike Veiligheid Struktuur wil ook ten nouste met alle GPFgroeperinge wat teenwoordig was, asook ander wat nie daar was nie, saamwerk om die veiligheid van almal in die Limpopo landelike gebiede te help verseker.

Moenie ‘n drup wees nie, Skoon water is veilige water spaar eerder water Deur Isabel Venter

Deur Isabel Venter

Nasionale Waterweek word vandeesweek landswyd gevier, maar baie inwoners reken daar is nie baie om te vier nie. Te midde van vuil water uit krane en gereelde onderbrekings in die watertoevoer moet inwoners maar eie planne beraam om die wonder van skoon water te ervaar. Juis daarom het die nasionale Departement van Waterwese en Sanitasie (DWS) hierdie week geskep (17 tot 23 Maart) om die belangrikheid van water te beklemtoon. “Die regering is bekommerd oor die droogte wat Suid-Afrika tans ervaar, en doen ‘n beroep op alle landsburgers om die realiteit in die gesig te staar dat water ‘n skaars bron is waarvoor daar nie ‘n plaasvervanger is nie,” het die DWS minister Nomvula Mokonyane gesê met die aanvang van Nasionale Waterweek die afgelope Maandag. Mokonyane het die belangrikheid beklemtoon om spaarsamig met water te werk.

Dept. Waterwese en Sanitasie se raad om water te bespaar: 1. Draai die kraan toe as jy dit nie gebruik nie. 2. Was net ‘n vol bondel wasgoed op ‘n slag. 3. Gebruik wasgoedwater om die toilette in die huis mee te spoel, vloere te was of die tuin nat te maak. 4. Plaas ’n “waterverplasingstoestel” in jou toiletbak – soos ’n baksteen of ’n plastiekbottel met water gevul – om water te bespaar. 5. Moenie te lank draai in die stort nie, en indien jy nie oor ‘n stort beskik nie moenie die bad tot oorlopens toe vol water tap nie. 6. Sorg dat pype en krane nie lek nie. 7. Slaan twee vlieë dood met een klap en kook net genoeg water op ‘n slag in die ketel.

WATER IS PRECIOUS, STORE IT SAFELY!

In Louis Trichardt word huishoudelike watersuiweringstoestelle al hoe meer gebruik, en met goeie rede. Met die verloop van tyd het al hoe meer plaaslike huishoudings onafhanklik begin funksioneer van munisipale water deur die installering van opgaartenks en drukpompe. In sommige gevalle word van dié tenks aangevul met boorgatwater, terwyl ander nog afhanklik is van munisipale water. Die kwaliteit van die water, of dit nou vanaf die munisipaliteit of uit ‘n boorgat kom, is nie altyd so goed nie, en daar is ook baie chemikalieë in die water wat niemand graag sou wou inneem nie. Waarskynlik die maklikste en mees koste-effektiewe sisteem om kwaliteit gesonde drinkwater te verkry, is die tru-osmose sisteem. ‘n Ses-fase tru-osmose stelsel sal van alle onsuiwerhede en chemikalieë in die water ontslae raak en gedurende die sesde fase slegs die minerale terugplaas in die water wat ons liggame nodig het elke dag. Maar hoe gemaak as só ‘n stelsel nie bekostig kan word nie? Een inwoner het sy raad gedeel met die Zoutpansberger. Mnr. Louw Pretorius raai inwoners aan om ongesuiwerde water in ‘n houer te plaas en dan ‘n bleikmiddel daarby te gooi (twee eetlepels op 25 liter water). Die houer moet dan goed geskud word en vir sowat 12 ure gelos word sodat die sediment onder in die houer kan gaan lê. Die water kan dan deur een van die goedkoper waterfilters (beskikbaar by enige supermark of waterverskaffer) gegooi word, waarna dit gebruik kan word. Jodium kan ook met groot sukses gebruik word om kieme in die water te dood (behalwe as

mens daarvoor allergies is). Die Departement van Water en Sanitasie (DWS) beveel vyf druppels jodium vir elke liter water aan. Water moet gelos word om vir 15 ure te staan, en as dit dan nog melkerig is moet dit deur ‘n skoon doek gefiltreer word. Daar is ook ‘n verskeidenheid watersuiweringstablette beskikbaar wat plaaslik by apteke en kampeerwinkels aangeskaf kan word. Volg die instruksies op die pakkie noukeurig. Sodra die vullis onder in die houer saampak, filtreer die water deur ‘n skoon doek. Die vuilheid sal op die doek agterbly. Maak seker dat die skoon water met ‘n deksel of doek bedek bly. Die goedkoopste manier om water te suiwer is deur sonkrag. Vul ‘n deurskynende plastiekbottel met water en los dit vir twee ure in die warm son. As die helfte van die bottel swart geverf is en op ‘n sinkplaat gesit word, word die verwarmingsproses versnel. Die kombinasie van warm water en ultraviolet-bestraling van die son, maak die meeste mikro-organismes dood. Dit is besonder effektief om die cholera bakterie te dood.

Bvekenya Barnard the most famous of Crook’s Corner’s elephant hunters

tre

Barnard Street

“Nobody knew his real name, where he had come from, or whether he was dead. He was a legend of the bush; and as is the bush is secret and ageless, so its legends come from all ages, mix themselves up irrespective of years, and go on to the future like a trail whose beginnings are tree-grown and whose makers have vanished completely.” – T.V. Bulpin, The Ivory Trail This week we move “uptown” and delve into the history of one of the most picturesque streets in Louis Trichardt, namely Barnard Street. We are, however, not going to take the normal route. We are going to take a detour, which will inevitably make the trip much longer, but much more interesting. Barnard Street was in all probability named after one of the town’s councillors or community leaders serving on the first boards. In PHC de Vaal’s book about the town’s history*, he mentions two Barnards, namely H. van der Watt Barnard and F.A. Barnard. F.A. Barnard was mayor of the town in 1958, so it is presumably his name that the street bears. The problem is that we can only assume. Perhaps the street was named after the most famous “local” Barnard of all, the man known to friends and foes as Bvekenya. The man whose name became synonymous with big-game hunting (or ivory poaching) in Africa as the main character in the all-time classic of T.V. Bulpin, The Ivory Trail. (Bulpin, a South African-born author, wrote several books about life in southern Africa.) Part of Bulpin’s story plays out in the northern-most corner of the country, more precisely at the spot where South Africa, Mozambique and Zimbabwe meet. “Crooks Corner is the name man gave long ago to this secluded and sinister wedge of land. It was a last home for many a curious and lawless character: a sanctuary from civilisation, whose solitary state was paradise to all those whose deeds or inclinations made imperative a retreat to some last stronghold of the lawless,” writes Bulpin. Unlike a Hollywood film script, Bulpin’s depiction of this rugged and eccentric hunter is very authentic. The legendary Bvekenya was real and left an indelible mark on the region. It is said that even today the Shangaan people on the Mozambican side of the Save River still wait for Barnard and that the land will not be made available for hunting to anyone else, as it is “Bvekenya’s land.” The story of Stephanus Cecil Rutgert Barnard started on a farm outside Knysna on 19 September, 1886. This was also where he was first introduced to the world of elephant hunting, during a time when these beautiful beasts still roamed the Knysna woods. While he was still very young, the family moved to a farm in Schweizer-Reneke in the Western Transvaal. A couple of unfortunate events occurred in the years that followed. The area was hit by an outbreak of rinderpest and old man Barnard had to work away from home in trying to provide for the family. This was followed by the Anglo Boer War and, as a resident of the Boer Republic, Barnard Snr had to join the fight. This, of course, left Mrs Barnard and the children to fend for themselves under extremely difficult circumstances. When his mother was moved to a British concentration camp, Bvekenya had to look after his siblings. She died of sickness in the camp before her husband could return from the war. When Bvekenya’s father arrived back at the farm, the young man decided that the time had come for him to explore the world. It started with a career as a policeman, but all along the romantic idea of hunting elephants lingered in the back of his mind. After three years of working as law enforcer, he put his savings together and started preparations for his career as a big-game hunter. Among other stuff he bought a Lee Enfield .303 calibre gun and set off on the road to the north. (Not really a rifle suited for elephant hunting, but something that he had to find out for himself in the bush.) In 1910, the same year that South Africa became a Union, Bvekenya set out with a wagon and donkeys along the Great North Road. At Soekmekaar (nowadays Morebeng), he turned north-east to Klein Letaba and from there the trail went to Pun-

da Maria. Further north he crossed the Luvhuvhu River and arrived at the infamous Crook’s Corner. Crook’s Corner had a number of rather interesting characters. Among the few friends that Bvekenya made were the owner of the Makhuleke Store, Alec Thompson, as well as a “blackbirder”, William Pye. Blackbirders made their money out of recruiting local tribesmen to work on the South African mines. Bvekenya himself later added to his income by working as a blackbirder. The story goes that Bvekenya initially tried to hunt in a legal way and travelled to Massangena in what we now know as Mozambique, to obtain a permit. He was not successful and only obtained permission to hunt small game. One of the policemen stationed at Massangena, however, collected a gang of renegades and tried to rob and kill Bvekenya while he was camping near the Save River. Bvekenya managed to escape with only his cotton underpants on and had to walk back to Makhuleke, almost 240 kilometres away. It was a long and dangerous journey and Bvekenya nearly succumbed on the way back. He was rescued by a group of Shangaan workers returning from the South African mines. They gave him a spear, some clothing and helped him to recover. They also gave him his name, which means “the man who swaggers when he walks”. This was probably because of the way he walked barefoot on the warm sand. Bvekenya finally made it back to Crook’s Corner, where he used his wagon as collateral to borrow money to return to Johannesburg. He then kitted himself out in a more proper way and bought a 9.5 Mannlicher-Schoenauer, a weapon much more suited for shooting elephants. Much of Bulpin’s story concerns Bvekenya’s quest for revenge and also to repay those who had been kind to him. Whenever he shot an elephant, the tusks were cut out and the rest of the meat went to the local villagers. In several instances his hunting skills and generosity saved them from starvation, especially during the early 1910s when the eastern region suffered from a terrible drought. The story also focuses on his obsession to shoot an exceptionally big elephant bull, called Dhlulamithi (taller than the trees). Even though Bvekenya was an infamous poacher and fugitive from the law, he was also a conservationist. He did not believe in killing game for fun and always ensured that nothing that he had shot went to waste. His trackers had to ascertain the age of the elephant, often by studying the dung, to make sure it was past its prime. During a trip to the then Rhodesia via the Lundi River, he witnessed the abundance of game congregating in the area, following the good rains. This made such an impression on him that he wrote to the Native Commissioner of Chibi in the Fort Victoria district, proposing that they establish a transfrontier park. Much to his surprise the Native Commissioner, a Mr P Forrestal, wrote back, thanking him for the letter and information, but he reckoned the authorities would not agree to such a proposal. It would take almost another 100 years before this idea became a reality. Bvekenya gradually took revenge on his attackers and, in doing so, also collected warrants for his arrest in three countries. To the local inhabitants,

In this week’s edition we focus on Barnard Street, but we “cheat” (to a certain degree and hopefully with the blessings of our readers). We could not resist writing about one of the region’s most famous Barnards, namely the legendary hunter/poacher, Bvekenya Barnard. In our defence we did try and find out more about the other Barnards, but very little information is available. Perhaps a reader can enlighten us. Readers with information on the streets not yet covered in the series must please contact Anton at anton@zoutnet.co.za or Pétria at petria@devaaBarnard landdevaal.co.za.

however, he became a hero and a mystical legend. His ability to live off harsh, drought-stricken land, was unparalleled. Bulpin describes it as follows: “The wilderness in which Bvekenya hunted, between the Great Sabi and the Limpopo, from the Rhodesian border down to within fifty miles of the sea, was known to the Shanganes as the Hlengwe (The Place Where You Need Help). It was a place where terror dwelt: a haunt of the wild animals, of sudden death, of an ancient savagery, and the nameless ghosts of strange gods whose lore and rites were half-forgotten.” During his almost 20-year stay in the area, Bvekenya studied not only the animals in the area, but also the plants and trees. He experimented with taming the eland and even sent some as gifts to the national zoo. As “blackbirder” Bvekenya’s name was known far and wide. This was a very controversial “occupation” and often accompanied by tales of abuse and deceit. Tribesmen were lured from various villages to work in the mines in places such as Johannesburg and Kimberley, often under atrocious circumstances. The blackbirders received up to £7 for every recruit, which made it a very profitable business. Bvekenya had a very organised and almost sophisticated system in place to guide the recruits to the mines. These included several hidden bush camps en route, where the men could rest and eat and could also acclimatize as they travelled southwards. One of the biggest dangers for mine workers coming from northern countries was pneumonia. They were simply not ready to face the damp, cold conditions in the Highveld mines. During his years in the Soutpansberg, Bvekenya made several good friends. When Thompson departed, the Makuleke store at Crook’s Corner was managed by a Canadian, Buck Buchanan. Buchanan later moved to a farm close to the Soutpansberg. Another friend of Bvekenya’s was Hendrik Hartman and the two of them agreed to farm with sheep at the back of the Soutpansberg. In 1918, Hartman was in Crook’s Corner, busy building a kraal for the sheep, when he climbed up a large thorn three to cut down branches. As he worked his way up the tree, the branches formed a pile below him. When he at last realised that he had left no escape route, it was too late and he could not get down. He shouted for help, but had to spend the day up there before help arrived. He died of sunstroke a few days later and was buried at Crook’s Corner. Bvekenya often visited Louis Trichardt, where

another hunter friend of his, Hans Klopper,lived. Klopper farmed at Doornspruit near the town, but his favourite hunting ground was in the northern parts of the Kruger National Park. An area with a fountain just north of the Shantangalani hills, Klopperfontein, is named after him. Towards the end of his “career” as blackbirder, Bvekenya became a more law-abiding citizen and worked for a mining company, officially recruiting workers. This only lasted until 1923 when the call of the bush became too much for him to tolerate. For the next few years he was back hunting elephants, but the circumstances had changed. He was appalled by the manner in which Africa’s resources were being destroyed, especially by those with no knowledge of the bush. At the same time, several national parks were declared and policing of these areas intensified. In 1929, at the age of 43, Bvekenya left the area where he had had so many adventures and close encounters with death. He bought a farm in the western Transvaal at Geysdorp. He married Marie Badenhorst and they had four sons and a daughter. Bvekenya only returned to the Soutpansberg twice in his later years. During the first visit, in 1952, he took his son, Isak, to show him the old places. On the second occasion he took the author, T.V. Bulpin, to Crook’s Corner. Bulpin’s book, The Ivory Trail, first appeared in 1954. Cecil Barnard died in his bed at the age of 76 on 2 June 1962. He was buried on his farm Vlakplaas, near Geysdorp. Even towards the end of his life the memories of his years in the bush never faded. His son, Isak, had an interview years later with Dave Edgcumbe, a dedicated hunter and conservationist, and told him that his dad had preferred walking instead of riding. He would walk from his farm to the closest cooperative in Lichtenburg and back, a roundtrip of some 260km. “Maybe this was his way of remembering the months and years that he (had) walked the Lowveld, of adventures, loneliness, of triumphs and tribulations,” Isak Barnard said. Deep in the thick bush near Crook’s Corner there still lies a grave with the inscription Stephanus Cecil Rutgert Barnard. Bulpin did not know about this grave and doesn’t mention it in his book. His son explained that his dad was once very sick with malaria. The Shangaan helpers who were with him thought he was going to die and dug the grave for him. When they visited the spot in 1952, it was still two feet deep. On 19 September 1986, 100 years after his birth, his family unveiled a small plaque in the area where he and many other wanderers in the period between 1910 and 1929 had conducted their trade on the infamous Ivory Route.

ie Skrif sê in Efesiërs 6:10 “Soek julle krag in die Here en in Sy groot mag.” Kom ons kyk na vier Bybelse waarhede op hierdie weg wat “krag in die Here” genoem word. 1. Neh. 8:11: “... want die blydskap in die Here - dit is julle beskutting.” (OV) Is dit nie wonderlik om aan God te behoort nie, wat blydskap die weg maak na krag? 2. Rom. 5:2: “En ons verheug ons ook in die hoop om deel te hê aan die heerlikheid van God.” ‘n Deel van ons vreugde is as gevolg van wat ons nou reeds het, vergifnis van sonde, gemeenskap met God, ‘n doelgerigte lewe, kosbare familie en vriende. Maar die eenvoudige en pynlike waarheid is ... “ons uiterlike is besig om te vergaan.” (2 Kor. 4:16). Daarom, as ons ‘n onwankelbare blydskap in hierdie lewe wil ervaar, moet dit in “hoop” wees. Lees Rom. 8:24-25. Daarom verbly ons ons “in die hoop”. (Rom. 12:12). 3. Openb. 21:4-23 Dit is ons hoop. Die wedergebore kinders van God sal eendag Sy heerlikheid aanskou, dan sal daar nie meer sonde, trane en siekte wees nie. Lees Rom. 8:32. Alles wat God besit is die erfporsie van Sy kinders om vir ewig te geniet. Daarom, plaas jou hoop in die heerlikheid van God, en wees bly in daardie hoop en laat daardie blydskap jou sterkte wees in jou stryd hier op aarde. 4. Efesiërs 1:15-18. Ons groot uitdaging nou is om te weet wat die heerlikheid van ons hoop is. Om dit met die oë van ons hart te sien en nie net met ons verstand daaraan te dink nie. Dit is ons groot geestelike stryd. Hierdie stryd word op ons knieë, in die Woord geveg. Kom ons bid met ons hele hart dat God wat gesê het “laat daar lig wees” in ons harte sal skyn om “ons te verlig met die kennis van die heerlikheid van God” (2 Kor. 4:6). Dit moet ons daaglikse vreugde en ons blywende skat wees. Hierdie vreugde sal ons krag wees.

Toe Bernard se pa tot sterwe kom, was Duka Dlamini ‘n rots vir Bernard se ma. Vir die hele familie; vir al die besigheidsbelange. “Duka het my vanoggend gebel, Daisy. Ek skuld hom groot en hy vra my nou vir ‘n klein guns – namens sy seun Didi. Sy oudste seun is ‘n bliksem van ‘n windlawaai. Hy maak staat op sy pa se rykdom en invloedryke netwerk om hom by die hoogste sosiale kringe in die wêreld in te grawe. Dan moet sy pa hom weer daaruit grawe ook. Ek het geen tyd vir Didi nie, maar ek skuld sy pa,” pleit Bernard. “Daar is vriende van Didi wat baie vinnig uit die land moet kom. Maar sonder dat sekere partye daarvan kennis dra. Hulle moet letterlik verdwyn – sonder dat die media, die Valke of enige parlementariërs daarvan te hore kom.” “Hulle land vanmiddag hier anderkant by die Spanjaarde se plek. Met hulle eie privaatvliegtuig. Al die pad van Waterkloof Lughawe af!” Daisy trek haar asem skielik geskok op. Maar sy sê niks. Sy wag dat Bernard dit bevestig. En hy doen. “Dis die Coruptas, Daisy. Die Coruptas kom hier wegkruip totdat hulle oor die grens kan glip na een van Bob se wegkruipplekke toe.” (Volgende week: Amuz en die Coruptas by Daisy en Bernard se gastehuis in die Soutpansberg.)

As part of the day’s activities from 09:00 until 12:00, there will be a treasure hunt fun ride. Teams must consist of four riders (R20 per rider) and they

must dress “funky”. A bring-and-braai will round off the day, with pap & sous being supplied. Prospective members are also welcome to join the club on the day. Registration costs R250 per adult per year and R200 for scholars per year. For more information, phone Chanel at 083 263 9171 or Rae at 074 570 1100.

Dorp het Saterdag tuisveld voordeel Die plaaslike rugbyseisoen is weer in volle swang, en dit is tyd om die braaiers en koel bokse nader te trek vir die jaarlikse Boet Fick-liga. Hierdie komende naweek sal die spelers van die Louis Tri chardt Rugbyklub dit op hul tuis veld uitspook teen Musina en die Universiteit van Venda (Univen)

se rugbyspanne om punte bymekaar te maak vir die wentitel in dié gesogte liga. Die klub se bestuur het inwo ners uitgenooi om weereens die spanne te kom ondersteun. Op Saterdag, 19 Maart, sal Louis Trichardt se tweedes te staan kom teen die tweedespan van Univen. Hierdie wedstryd sal

om 15:00 afskop. Daarna sal die Dendron-span (wat vir Louis Trichardt speel) om 16:15 teen die Messina Rugbyklub se span te staan kom. Die hoofwedstryd van die dag, tussen Louis Trichardt en Univen se eerstespanne, sal om 18:45 begin. Toegangsgeld by die hekke beloop R20 per voertuig, en oud en jonk is welkom.

Laerskool Louis Trichardt se eerste rug byspan het verlede week te staan gekom teen Laerskool Messina in ‘n vriendskaplike wedstryd wat op Triegies se velde beslis is. Vir altwee spanne was dit ‘n uitstekende geleentheid om hulle vernuf uit te toets vir die komende wintersportseisoen.

Davies Malaudzi, kampioen hekkiesatleet van Hoërskool Eric Louw, het Saterdag (12de) weer puik vertoon in die 110 mH vir SO/19 tydens Atletiek Suid-Afrika (ASA) se Limpopo Kampioenskappe. Hy hardloop sy persoonlike beste tyd ooit van 14,16 sekondes, slegs 0.04 sekondes stadiger as die Suid-Afrikaanse tyd verlede jaar. Hy sal die komende vakansie aan sowel Suid-Afrika Skole Atletiek (SASA) as die ASA se nasionale kampioenskappe deelneem. Foto verskaf.

‘n Jong Triegie-netbalspelertjie mik met intense konsentrasie vir ‘n doel. Laerskool Louis Trichardt het verlede Donderdag op hul tuisveld vriendskaplike wintersport wedstryde gespeel teen Laerskool Messina.

Die eerste drie plekke in die Munnik Meerkat 70 km vroue-wedren het Saterdag gegaan aan ‘n paar vroue wat glad nie vreemd is vir die podium nie. Ook hulle het goed gery ten spyte van die nat baan en al drie die eerste vroue tuis se tye was beter as die algehele wentyd van 03:56:39 verlede jaar. Baie deelnemers het opgemerk dat die nat baan hulle eintlik beter pas, want dan hoef hulle nie so hard te werk in die droë, los sand waarvoor die Munnik Meerkat bekend is nie. Vanjaar se wenner was Britt Dando (middel) in ‘n tyd van 03:34:53. Sy is gevolg deur Dorothy Rood (links), verlede jaar se derde plek wenner, in ‘n tyd van 03:37:16. Verlede jaar se algehele wenner van die 70 km-vrouewedren, Louwrina Dando (regs), moes vanjaar tevrede wees met ‘n derde plek in ‘n tyd van 03:43:02.

Digte mis en ‘n uiterse nat baan was nie genoeg om deelnemers se geesdrif te demp tydens die immer gewilde Munnik Meerkat Bergfietsuitdaging wat Saterdag by Munnik beslis is nie. Meer as 50 gesoute bergfietsryers het die harde-trap 70 km-wedren aangedurf, ten spyte van ‘n baie nat en modderige baan. Eerste tuis was senior ryer Heine Engelbrecht (middel) in ‘n tyd van 02:50:26. Sy tyd was agt minute vinniger as die wentyd van 2015, ten spyte van die moeilike ryomstandighede. Tweede oor die wenstreep was meester Henry Hayes (links) in ‘n tyd van 03:00:02, gevolg deur veteraan Jan-Louis Pretorius (regs) in 03:03:28. Die Munnik Meerkat word jaarliks baie professioneel aangebied deur die Munnik Boerevereniging.

‘n Kortkop agter die manswenners van die Munnik Meerkat 35 km-wedren was die vroueryers. Eerste tuis was verlede jaar se tweede plek wenner in die wedren, Ashley Murray (regs), in ‘n tyd van 01:26:55 – ‘n volle 13 minute vinniger as haar tyd van verlede jaar. Verlede jaar se wenner van die wedren, Soretha Lubbe (links), moes vanjaar tevrede wees met ‘n tweede plek in ‘n tyd van 01:33:57, gevolg deur Melanie Melville (afwesig) in die derde plek in ‘n tyd van 01:39:06.

Vanjaar se Munnik Meerkat 35 km-bergfietswedren vir mans het nie sonder voorval verloop nie. Die groep van sowat 10 jong gunstelinge om die wedren Saterdag te wen, uit ‘n wegspringgroep van meer as 180 deelnemers, is almal gediskwalifiseer. Dit nadat hulle, as deel van die voorste bondel, ‘n verkeerde afrit gevat het en uiteindelik vier kilometer minder as die res van die veld gery het. JP Venter (middel) het egter mooi opgelet na die roete-aanwysings en eerste geëindig in ‘n tyd van 01:21:41. Sheldon Muller (links) was tweede in ‘n tyd van 01:25:15, gevolg deur Hoërskool Louis Trichardt renjaer Turner de Swardt (regs) in die derde plek in ‘n tyd van 01:25:50.
