Pte Semoni Sankotsane (51), a soldier attached to 15SAI Battalion in Vuwani. He was found around 08:00 by a construction worker. The place where the body was found is a known “broth el spot” where cars with “lovers” can be seen on a daily basis. The scene where the body was found, however, showed signs of a struggle. Within a short space of time, people flocked from the neigh bouring villages of Dzwerani, Mahematshena and Tshifula nani to have a glimpse of the burnt man but were prevent ed from doing so as crime scene

experts had cordoned off the area. According to the deceased’s wife, Ms Seani Ramahana, her husband left for work on Tuesday and that was the last time he was seen alive. “When I came back from work at 17:00, he was not back and I did not suspect anything. I became worried when he was not back at 21:00. I phoned both his phones, but they were off,” she said. She further indicated that she alerted the family about the fact that he was missing and opened a missing person’s file with the police on Thursday. She was later informed that a body had been found at a dumping site nearby. “The police took me to the mortuary, where I identified him through the watch he was wear ing. It was a shocking experience for me. I have never come close to a dead body, but circumstances forced me to do so, and what I saw was shocking a person roasted like a piece of meat by another human being,” she said. She added that the whole incident was like a bad dream to her. “I have lost a good man who cared for the whole family and we had dreams of a big family together. I will miss him dearly,” she said. Cllr Thomani Thabela, one of

the first to arrive at the scene, said they were alerted to the incident by a truck driver who was collecting sand at the area. “What we saw was sickening. A person roasted like a lamb for a feast. I have never seen this form of cruelty in my life,” he said. He said it was not the first incident of this kind to happen in the area. “Some years back, a local man was found burnt and squeezed into a cave; since then, there have been so many crimes in this area.” Civic leader Musiwalo Nemataheni said there was a need for the police to patrol the area. “We have experienced an upsurge in crimes such as robberies, muggings, rapes and housebreakings in this area over a peri od of time.” Vuwani police spokesperson W/O Elijar Malatjie said that the circumstances leading to Sankotsane’s death would only be known when investigations were com pleted. “We suspect that the man might have been murdered somewhere else and dumped at the area by the killer or killers. We are making an appeal to the public out there to assist us with information that could lead to the arrest and successful prosecution of the per petrators. Someone, somewhere might have witnessed this gruesome incident. Please help us!” he said.

“I identified him through the watch he was wearing...”

Constable arrested on murder charge A police constable from Mpumalanga was arrested at Dzimauli on Friday on charges of armed robbery and murder. The police spokesperson in Mutale, W/O Tsh ilidzi Nyambeni, said in a statement that Const Livhuwani Lawrence Matodzi (30), attached to the police service in Delmas, went to the Maraxwe Supermarket on Friday morning. It is alleged that he shot the owner with his service pistol and stole money and airtime vouchers. “According to the information we have, the inci dent happened around 10:00 on Friday,” Nyambeni said. He added that Matodzi was allegedly driving a Toyota bakkie belonging to his elder brother-in-law and was reportedly in the company of his younger brother-in-law, Ndivhuwo Mmbobo (31). “It was reported to us that Matodzi had allegedly shot the Somalian shop owner, Mr Dobsmo Tamirai Handamo (38), three times in the left side of his chest and took R1 601.70 and airtime vouchers. They then drove away, but EPWP workers heard the shots and chased the suspects and cornered them into a trench that had been created by floods.” It was reported to the police that, after realizing that he was trapped, Matodzi made a U-turn and drove straight at the charging workers. He allegedly fired two shots into the air and then sped off. The police arrested Matodzi at Dzimauli and Mmbobo later; he was found in possession of Mat dozi’s service pistol, nine rounds of ammunition, stolen cash and airtime vouchers. Matodzi and Mmbobo appeared in the Mutale Magistrate’s Court on Monday (15 September) and the cases have been postponed to today (Friday). They remain in custody.

Mysterious fire kills Tshakhuma man At around 02:00 in the morning last Thursday, Ms Rudzani Mutshekwana heard screams of people trying to extinguish a fire at Tshakhuma-Muhovhoya. When she went out to investigate, she was greeted with the horrible news that her brother’s house was burning ferociously. Although community members managed to extinguish the fire, it was already too late as her brother

was already dead inside the house. Mr Samuel Mutshekwana (51) was apparently asleep in his house, which is adjacent to his sister’s house. It is speculated that the electric bulb in the room was not working and he allegedly lit a candle. The candle may have fallen over, causing the fire. According to the police report, the community members only found out that there was a person

inside the house after extinguish ing the fire with the assistance of a fire truck. No foul play is suspected, but the Levubu police are investigat ing the incident. The police spokesperson W/O Solly Mukhola said experts were investigating to find out what had really caused the fire. “We have opened an inquest and further investigations are underway,” he said.

The Mapungubwe National Park and World Heritage site was a hive of activities last week during a huge cultural heritage celebration. Various local artists exhibited their work in an effort to promote and support indigenous music and art. The annual heritage celebration event was hosted simultaneously with the government’s initiative to promote access to South African national parks. SANParks, in partnership with First National Bank (FNB), opened doors to public from last Tuesday until Friday to allow public to enjoy the natural beauty that South African parks have to offer. The week was established under the theme

“Know Your National Parks.” The initiative has allowed Mapungubwe to use the opportunity to promote culture and heritage celebrations. The park manager, Mr Fhatuwani Mugwabana, said the festival was a unique oppor tunity for the visual arts community to experience, see and buy a large selection of artworks from the province. “We went the extra mile and made a comprehensive selection of artist in the Vhembe district,” said Mr Mugwabana. The event ended on Saturday with various local artist and indigenous groups performing their cul tural dances and indigenous music. The performances were opened with the python

dance (Domba) by young girls of the Ngwana Cultural Group from Jumbo Progress Combined School. To show that they are proud of their cul ture, they also performed the Malende. The girls’ teacher, Ms Ngwana, said she was proud of their culture and their school was meant to restore the culture and dignity of the Vhavenda people. “We want to restore our own rules because we are proud of our culture,” she said. Among the other artists who performed were Conerstone, Vhavenda Vho Matsheka, Dinaka Cultural group, Dietlaetla cultural group, Naledzani Netshirembe, Burning Doctor and Mr Makhwara Mutondi.

Policeman killed during armed robbery at Mavhunga After living through a hellish weekend, in which three suspects went on a rampant crime spree, the community of Nzhelele can now once again sleep soundly. Local police have confirmed this week that two of the tree men who are suspected of causing widespread fear among the community are behind bars. They were arrested last Tuesday (9th) after they had allegedly hijacked an Indian businessman, Mr Inyat Abdul Patel (42) of Makhado (Louis Trichardt), at gunpoint along the Witvlag road. According to information supplied by the police, Norman Raluswinga (30) and Tumelo Naledzani Matsipi (32) are also accused of a spate of other crimes that left

The quest for morality

Striving towards inner beauty as an antidote to divorce There is a saying: “Do not judge the book by its cover”. This saying captures what Christ told the Pharisees: “Stop judging by mere appearances, and make a right judgment” (Matthew 7:24). This contradicts the spirit of the day in contemporary culture, people are judged by their looks. I remember when Venda was burning because of witch hunts, one only had to have certain features to be branded a witch: “dark black”, “red eyes” and “ugly” by human standards. The Pharisees had the same attitude of judging people because of what they saw. Jesus taught them the importance of inner beauty. A person’s value and worth should emanate from the inner self. Jesus repeated the same teaching about inner beauty in Luke 11:37-41. In this case he focused on two issues, namely (1) cleaning the inside of the cup and (2) cleaning the outside of the cup. Striving towards inner beauty is a spiritual exercise. It is contrasted with the spirit to clean the outside of the cup. Real meaning of inner beauty in this context is: We are talking about purity of the heart: “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God” (Matthew 5:8). In this instance we are talking assurance of your salvation; We are talking about a Christ-like life: “Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is

right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable – if anything is excellent or praiseworthy – think about such things” (Philippians 4:8). We are talking life of being driven by the Holy Spirit. The Spirit is the first deposit that guarantees you your faith (Ephesians 1:14). We are instructed to lead a life that responds to the lead and guidance of the Holy Spirit at all times. “Do not put out the Spirit’s fire” (1 Thessalonians 5:19). 1 Thessalonians 5:20-28 continues to define how best we can achieve this. When a woman is adorned with this beauty, she is able to live and behave in such a way that she becomes a noble wife whose heart is in saving her marriage. There are women who will leave their husbands for other men because their husbands can’t afford to pay for their expensive lifestyles. Inner beauty, however, is an antidote to divorce. One adorned with inner beauty will always be a loving person, respectful and willing to do everything in her power to ensure that her marriage will never come to an end. This woman strives to listen to the voice of God in the Scriptures and do God’s will with regard to her marriage. - Prof Derrick Mashau, (mashatd@unisa.ac.za)

Next round of the Venda king (queen)ship battle? The battle to determine who will be the king or queen of the Vhavenda may still be determined in the country’s courts. This legal battle, which has been looming now for several years, seems to be heading for the High Court in Thohoyandou. According to Mr Johann Hammann, attorney for the applicants, the advocates must file their Heads of Arguments and Practice Notes and then they can apply for a date on which the hearing can take place. At the end of 2012, the then 21-yearold Masindi Clementine Mphephu filed papers in the Thohoyandou High Court, claiming that she should have been next in line for the throne but was overlooked because of gender discrimination. She is the only child of the late paramount chief of the Vhavenda, Tshimangadzo Mphephu (who ruled under the name Dimbanyika) The second applicant in the case is Mbulaheni Charles Mphephu, eldest son of the late Patrick Mphephu. He argues that, should Masindi not be considered for the kingship position, he would be next in line. They dispute the recommendation made by selected members of the royal family in August 2010 that the rightful incumbent is Toni Mphephu Ramabulana. The respondents in the case include Toni Ramabulana, Pres Jacob Zuma (who had announced that Toni would be the new king), as well as the national and pro vincial houses of traditional leaders. The applicants ask the court to firstly set aside the decision to appoint Toni Ramabulana as king and then to declare that the prac tice of only installing males as traditional leaders be declared unconstitutional. In the affidavits and replying affidavits filed, the parties disagree on the proce dures to appoint a new heir. Mbulaheni

and Masindi believe that, because Toni Ramabulana was appointed as ndumi to his half-brother Dimbanyika, he should not have been considered for the kingship position. In Mbulaheni’s affidavit, he ex plains that “In terms of a strict requirement of Vhavenda customary law, the ndumi to a king or queen can never be the next king. This is because the ndumi is one of the closest advisors to the king or queen. It is thus believed that a person in that position would be tempted to kill or displace the king or queen if there was any incentive of succession involved.” The two applicants also argue that Toni

MEC for Health Mr Maaria Ishmael Kgetjepe

Ramabulana does not come from the right dzekiso house. The dzekiso wife (or can dle wife) is appointed according to certain customs and there may be more than one candle wife to make provision for cases where the first candle wife does not bear children. (This is, however, disputed by some of the respondents). The legal arguments will, however, firstly focus on the constitutional issue of whether a woman may be ignored when deciding on an heir. Masindi and Mbula heni’s legal team reckons there are plenty of examples in African history to make out a case for the inclusion of women.

No culture means no direction Trainee firefighter becomes top performing operator “A nation that does not respect its culture is doomed and does not have any direction,” said Vhavenda King Toni Mphephu Ramabulana. In an exclusive interview with Limpopo Mirror regarding the im portance of Heritage Month, he said that the Vhavenda nation must know its culture and respect heritage sites. “Heritage Month has been expanded to include the diverse cultural heri tage of our country,” he said. “Our area has a rich culture and our dream is to promote and ensure cultural tourism and ecotourism, so as to facilitate social justice and economic upliftment,” he said. King Toni Mphephu Ramabulana said it was important to preserve

African culture and traditional values in order to build a strong and disciplined nation. Mphephu said Africans must not undermine themselves because African prac tices were morally acceptable and educational. “Being educated does not mean that we must disregard our culture. We must learn to go out and preach our cultural gospel with happiness and pride. Our indigenous food is very healthy because it is less processed. The fact that the food is easily accessible and cheap, makes one boast of an African habitat that is rich in useful vegetation and adequate food supply. Most of the health problems that we face today are because of the food that we eat. It is important to teach our kids to prepare indigenous food to equip them with the knowledge they will use when we depart from this world,” said Mphephu. “We must be proud of who we are instead of being copycats of other peoples’ cultures. We must learn to love and appreciate our history, tradition and morality because those are the ba sis from which a strong nation develops. Our indigenous languages should also be preserved for the benefit of the “A nation that does not respect its culture is young generation and doomed and does not have any direction,” the community at large,” said King Toni Mphephu Ramabulana. said Mphephu.

Alice Mandiwana is a top-performing female operator for De Beers at Venetia Mine, with an average rate of 237 tonnes hauled per

operating hour. She ranks in the top seven operators on the mine and is the female operator with the highest net operating hours

(NOH) at the time of publi cation. This means that she is highly efficient and only spends the minimum amount of time idling the earth mov ing vehicle (EMV) as a result of standbys and de lays. Whereas the average operator at Venetia has moved approximately 78 loads to date this year, Al ice has hauled 113 loads. Alice loves working in the mining industry. She enjoys the diverse environment and is ener gised by the many oppor tunities for development and leadership. However, mining was not always her dream. She started out as a trainee firefighter desperate for a job and a chance to put bread on the table. After months of unsuccessful job hunting, she made application for the position of operator at De Beers and has never looked back. Alice’s role sees her responsible for the load ing and hauling of kim berlite ore and waste and its offloading at either the waste dumps or the pri mary crusher. “When I tell people that I drive a CAT 793 truck that can hold up to 234 tonnes, they are Alice Mandiwana is a top-performing female operator for De disbelieving.

them, it’s not hard - it’s easy!” The first time Alice entered a mine was after her operator training. She was unprepared for the sheer scale of opera tions, and admits that she was shocked by the size of the tyres and a little intimidated to think that she would be driving such enormous equipment. Two years later, Alice drives one of the largest trucks at Venetia Mine and seems to believe that ‘bigger is better.’ Not one to shy away from a challenge, Alice is eager for training and enjoys learning how to operate other machines. In an environment where people can be superstitious around which roles a woman should and should not undertake, Alice chooses to ignore these folk tales. She says, “As women we need to believe in ourselves and to take every opportunity to be trained”. As the primary breadwinner in her family, Alice takes her career very seriously and is passionate about providing for her husband, son (3) and daughter (8). “I never would have dreamt that my husband would lose his job. He is the man I love and the father of my children, and it is a privilege to have the kind of job where I can take care of him and my family until he gets back on his feet,” says Alice.

Mackson’s creative abilities not limited by his crutches Mackson Mbaziwa Mathonsi is a multi-talented individual whose creative abilities are not limited by the fact that he uses crutches. Mathonsi is an experimental sculp tor, musician, fashion designer and chairperson of a centre for disabled people currently based at Mninginisi Block 3 in Giyani. Standing between a jackal and hu man-sized bust which he had carved out of wood, Mathonsi told Limpopo Mirror that he started experimenting with sounds for music, carving wood, and tearing and piecing together cloth

from a very young age. “I told myself that I would not al low my physical disability to limit me from setting goals and working harder to achieve those goals,” he said. Mathonsi is a lead vocalist in his musical group, Makumbila Lucky Mzala, where he also plays lead guitar. The group’s debut album, Ka Madyisa, comprises songs such as Ka Madyisa, Ni Lava Ku Dyela, Va Hi Holovisa, Swita Vavana and Hahani. “Swita Vavana means that there would be a storm of dust when friends and family members meet to celebrate

life through music,” he said. “We also composed the song Maveriveri to encourage spouses to live in peace and harmony. Spouses fight and separate because other people gossip and spread malicious rumours about one of the spouses.” Mathonsi also heads a non-profit-organisation project, Tiva Rixaka Project for the Disabled, of which he has been the chairperson for some years now. “We started the project because we wanted to do things for ourselves as disabled people. We also wanted to protect young disabled persons from all kinds of abuse by removing them from the harsh streets, where people send them for endless errands.” Tiva Rixaka also keeps the disabled people busy by teaching them horticulture, knitting, sculpture making and other related skills which are beneficial to them. “We have 35 disabled persons in the project and at least 17 volunteers,” Mathonsi said. “Indeed, we are getting somewhere as a project. We hope to create a means of generating money for the project some time in the near future, so that we can give our volunteers a stipend.” He told Limpopo Mirror that he is also a fashion designer who sews traditional attire and western suits for locals. “You see this suit (he holds the scuff of his jacket) - I designed it for myself,” he said. “I wear it when I do music performances.”

Arbor Day at Musina schools Musina Local Municipality joined all South Africans in celebrating the recent Arbor Week. Through the sub-directorate of Waste Management, Parks and Rec reation of the Musina Municipality, indigenous trees were planted at various schools around Musina. The schools include Bonwa Udi Primary, Gateway Primary, St Martin De Pores Primary, Renaissance High, Nehemi ah, Musina High, Messina Laerskool, Madimbo Primary, Domboni Prima ry, Rixile Primary and Beit Bridge. Before planting indigenous trees at Beit Bridge Primary, Mayor Mihloti Ramoyada said trees played a vital role in the health and well-being of

the community. “Besides providing us with shelter, trees absorb harmful toxins in the atmosphere and release much-needed oxygen. Trees are a source of building material and produce food and can be used as medicine.” She emphasized that the occasion afforded people the opportunity to be involved “in greening our com munities. It is therefore important for the public to join hands with us to preserve trees, because they have multiple benefits for communities. Let us plant more trees because trees have more benefits to us and the environment.”

Ishmael newBreed Rammbwa is a producer, singer, music arranger and multi-instrumentalist who has a good ear for rhythm and sound. The 26-year-old producer is slowly but surely establishing himself in the industry which continues to frustrate even seasoned practitioners as a result of the spread of piracy. “I am not fazed by the spread of piracy,” he states. “I remain focused and goal directed.” newBreed set a milestone in his music career when he worked with the legendary musician Vho-April Samuel Ramufhi on his comeback album, Tshanda Tshi a Levha. Ramufhi noticed young newBreed performing at a party with a band and requested his contact details. “He said he liked my music,” he says. The next thing, Mr Peter Maleti, who came from Muraleni with Ramufhi, brought Ramufhi to the studio and requested the studio to revive his talent. The young producer says that working with Ramufhi was an unforgettable achievement in his life. “It was my first time working with a legendary musician,” he shares his experiences. “He corrected

me a lot and he also accepted my critique on other issues relating to sound and arrangement. When I heard songs from our project playing on radios and saw the article in Limpopo Mirror, I knew that I had done some good work in the history of the traditional music.” His music credentials include working with three children from the Tshilwavhusiku Razwimisani Special School. The group is called Special Force. “Some of the children come to me without even a small knowledge on how to write lyrics, but I am patient enough to help build up a song, word by word,” he says. He started playing drums at church. He would move from the drums to rhythm guitar or keyboards when one of the players were not present. “That’s how I got to play all instruments,” he reveals. He has worked with artists from different genres, such as C-Man (Lufuno Lwa Vhabebi and Vuwani), Thabo Mamphaga (Vho Fanelwa), Bhamba (Trouble in Paradise), Dream Catcher (Mvulatswinga), Prisca (Khonani Vhukuma), Comingo Familie (Vhembe Rhythms), and BornWise (Lufuno Lwo Fhela). The director at Ballitainment Media, Mr Ballican Sikhwari, couldn’t stop singing the praises of newBreed. “I see him as everything in the studio; he can compose, produce and he’s an author,” says Sikhwari. newBreed is busy in the studio, working on several individual projects for singers such as Jonny ‘Vho-Mahwayi’ Malungisa and C-Man. “It all started as a hobby, but I am confident today to say that music is part of my life and my daily bread,” he concludes.

New choir enheartens listeners By Tshifhiwa Mukwevho

There was a time when choral sounds were part of popular culture in homes, workplaces and schools. The newly formed Nzhelele Choir recently claimed this space and released their debut album, Mulamuleli. This package boasts 13 songs which connect the listener to the spiritual realm. The album opens up with the a capella Vharunwa. In this song, a praise-singer tells the story of Lot in the Bible, who welcomed two angels into his home at night. The style used in this song is reminiscent of the music made popular by groups such as Masole A Tumelo, Makgarebe A Bochabela and Bana Ba Kanana. “The title track, Mulamuleli, reminds listeners that God saves people from all forms of danger, trouble and problems,” said the group’s co-founder, Mr Mpho Miriri. In the song Bophelo, people are encouraged

to lead a prayerful lifestyle. The choir gives a fresh, refreshing rendition of the song Holokile. It is a piece of music filled with words of hope after a person has lived a meaningless life. Now there’s a need to go into privacy to spend time in the presence of God. The choir was incepted and formed by Mr Maumela Sebola and Miriri. According to Miriri, all the members had received motivation and guidance from singer Trica Selala. “The singers needed grounding, so that they could stand steady musically,” said Miriri. Selala introduced the choir to Michael Radzilani, who recorded the choir’s first album at his studio. Nzhelele Choir boasts 20 members. One of the choir members, Mr Phumudzo Khavhakhavha, said that he enjoyed singing in the choir. “I love singing and I am happy that I finally met people who also share my love of singing,” he said. For bookings and more information, Nzhelele Choir can be reached at 072 451 9685 or 073 944 8927.

Dutch volunteer to teach Takalani’s kids The Takalani Children’s Home at Siloam in Nzhelele recently welcomed Ms Tineke Noorlandt (28), a volunteer from Holland. Noorlandt’s stint at the home covers a duration of three months. She has a variety of duties to perform in the centre. “My main duty is to assist children with their homework and to prepare them for their exams,” she said. “I also play guitar and sing a lot of songs with them. I also give them self-confidence training.” Noorlandt is a trained, qualified teacher. She teaches Grade 2 at a primary school in Holland. “It was possible for me to ask for a leave, so that I can offer free work to the children here at Takalani Children’s Home,” she said. She plays different kind of games with children. She also teaches them painting. “I bake cakes and pizza, and give them a wonderful time!” she mar velled. “Once a week, we’re having boys’ night or ladies’ night. They learn from me, and I also learn from them.” It seems that Noorlandt has a keen interest in children and working with them. After only a cou ple of weeks at the centre, she already knows each child by his or her name. She added that she was enjoying her stay at the home. The contacts and interaction with the children and the staff are what really make her feel at home. “I really feel blessed to be here,” she expressed. “I have become part of the family, and that is really special.” It is not the first time that Noorlandt has visited South Africa. She first came to the country last year with a friend. “I stayed for a month, but that was too short,” she said. “It was my first time in South Africa and I enjoyed a lot. This time around, I had time to visit the Kruger National Park. And all I can say is that South Africa is a beautiful country.” She added that she especially loved to see the mountains. “We don’t have them in Holland. I feel really blessed,” she said. The home’s director, Mrs Rosinah Tshikovhele, said that Noorlandt was a volunteer under the auspices of the Deputaten Diaconaat Christelike Gereformeerde Kerken in Nederland, who have been playing the part of a major donor of the home since its inception in 1988. “We thank Noorlandt for her educational and recreational contributions to the lives of our chil dren,” she said. “We have seen her measureless love for children. She has a heart of gold. Her caring spirit is what makes her amazing.”

South Africa needs “peace journalism” Five Musina business owners in the dock If the media are not the official opposition of the government, then the time is now for South Africans to enjoy the benefits of “peace or development” journalism. In peace journalism, there is no oppression and divisive reporting. Through this practice, the jour nalist tells a good story of those individuals mak ing a difference in their respective communities. Community development projects, especially those initiated by the government, are the cor nerstone of determining the newsworthiness of a potential story. This is the only type of journalism which could do justice to the black majority who are often portrayed as the leading racial group attracting negative publicity. During the apartheid era, one way of oppressive reporting was to refer to those who were involved in the liberation struggle as terrorists who were responsible for causing instability in the country. A call to urge the South African media to practice peace journalism does not suggest that journalists should refrain from playing their role of being a moral watchdog of society by holding the leadership accountable to the electorate since the Constitution does not advocate that as South Africans we should be corrupt. However, if government communicators don’t sell their “subsidised news” on the massive role the government is playing to improve the lives of the masses, peace journalism will remain a challenge. I am of the view that peace journalism should start at community newspapers such as the Lim popo Mirror through covering stories that reflect the rainbow nation in Vhembe if not across the province. This can only be possible if government com municators begin to respect and take reporters from community media seriously by respecting their deadlines and availing themselves to answer questions all the time. This view is also shared by our new Commu nications Minister, Faith Muthambi, who said community media are at the heart of the govern ment’s new strategic approach of revolutionising the communication agenda in South Africa. “Government takes the issue of community media very seriously and it’s at the heart of our new strategic approach as department - especially

Five Musina-based shop owners appeared in the Musina Magistrate’s Court after they had allegedly bought boxes of stolen shoes. The shop owners, He Lsanke (31), Nusin Pslam (24), Hossain Sazzad (24), Ahmed Sattid (33) and Yasim Yasin (28), all bought shoes which were allegedly stolen from a delivery truck. The truck, which was from Johannesburg, was hijacked along the N1-road and robbed of many boxes of shoes. According to the spokesperson for the Musina police, Const Dakalo Ramagwede, it is alleged that the suspects who hijacked the truck were wearing police uniforms. “The suspects then allegedly sold the stolen items to shop owners in Musina,” Ramagwede said. Ramagwede indicated that the police managed to recover only 158 boxes of shoes. “Four Bangla deshi nationals and a Chinese national, all males, allegedly bought those shoes, so that they could sell them from their shops,” Ramagwede said. “We arrested them and they all appeared in the Musina

with regard to communication which empowers our people. “We need to change the mindset of feeding our communities, especially those in rural areas, only news stories happening in Parliament, Pretoria and Johannesburg. We are very serious about improving community media because they are closest to the people. This also enables us as gov ernment to localise the communication,” she said. I fully share Minister Muthambi’s view that community media are underutilised in the country. Indeed, if we were utilising this communication platform to enhance social cohesion especially in Makhado, our country would be different today. Muthambi wants government communicators to improve the way they communicate, as well as having a good working relationship with the entire media industry, community media included. When we begin to utilise the community me dia, provincial communicators and those in local municipalities will refrain from placing advertise ments that are more relevant to community media in mainstream media. Even in community media, news is something unusual, but we still want to see the positive sto ries about the government development initiatives taking place in our communities. Community media are the cornerstone of telling stories that move South Africa forward. - Nthambeleni Gabara, Pretoria (Gabara, a former reporter of Limpopo Mirror, is currently a senior reporter at SAnews and he writes this letter in his personal capacity.)

Magistrate’s Court on 8 September.” The SAPS at Musina are appealing to members of the community to help them with information regarding an incident of car hijacking which took place on 5 September. All the suspects were released on R5 000 bail each. Their case was postponed to 17 September, but at the time of going to press, no additional information on the case was available yet.

Benny’s Care the local Coke champions Benny’s Care Soccer Academy were too strong for Hudson Ntswanwisi High and beat them 1-0 in the provincial final of the Copa Coca-Cola U/15 competition at the Makhuvha Stadium on Saturday. Hudson had nobody to blame but themselves for the defeat. They squandered numerous obvious chances in the first half. The leading goal scorer, Charles Montjane, could not live up to his repu tation as he was well contained by Khathutshelo Raulinga. Rebone Ntsoane and Joseph Mokolo of Hudson should have scored more than twice each, but it was clearly not their day to be famous. The team from Nkowankowa matched Benny’s punch for punch in the first half, but their orig inal stamina faded. Benny’s then started to take command of the game, searching for goals. The

pressure increased on their opponent’s defenders, who continuously made mistakes. The guys who were giving the Hudson defence a terrible headache were Vukosi Sithole and Sihle Chabalala. Ntlakuso Rikhotso should have put his team ahead when the match was 64 minutes old, but his shot was saved by Hudson keeper Danny Peta. Both sides frustrated their fans a great deal by wasting obvious chances. Legora Mmatlou scored the only goal of the day after he finished off a square ball from Douglas Magonono.

A must win game against Witbank Spurs on Sunday Black Leopards must win their match against Witbank Spurs at the Puma Rugby Stadium in Witbank on Sunday if they are serious about gaining promotion to the Absa Premiership Division at the end of the season. Leopards are still to win a league match this season. Although they are leaving no stone unturned in their preparations for the match, it will not be easy for them to come back with maximum points. Spurs will be fighting it like a wounded tiger,

after losing 12 to Highlandspark at the Makhulong Stadium in Thembisa last weekend. Lidoda Duvha will be without their young striker, Sanele Mkize, on Sunday. He was taken off the pitch on the stretcher in their game against Garankuwa United at the Thohoyandou Stadium last Satur day. Spurs’ goal poacher, Cleopas Dube, will give the Leopards defenders, Marks Munyai and Dunga Munga, a tough time if he is not properly contained.

Only one point in home match

Warning lights The fans of Black Leopards left the Thohoyandou Stadium with sore hearts after their home team played to a 1-1 draw with rookies Garankuwa United in their NFD League match on Saturday. Just like in their previous two league matches, Black Leopards squandered countless scoring chances in the game. As if they were going to bury the visitors from Pretoria alive, Black Leopards took the game to United from the onset, with their midfielders distributing some dangerous passes to the strikers.

Lidoda Duvha were forced to effect an early change to their starting lineup in the 14th minute. Their centre forward, Sanele Mkize, was taken off the pitch on a stretcher after sustaining an injury. He was replaced with Maboke Matlakala. Matlakala caused an upset three minutes after his introduction. He received a precooked pass from Morgan Shivambu and fumbled at the goal finish, with the United keeper already beaten. Leonard Ntshangase, Leopards’ dribbling wizard, missed a sitter in the 26th minute. Sphamandla Sithole of Leopards (left) and Sipho Zwane of United chase the ball. Later in the match, he received a beautiful pass from Jabulani Ndebele and beat Ad designed by Zoutnet Publishers the United’s keeper, Mwenya Chibwe, with a ground cutter. Matlakala was also replaced, in the 64th minute. He sustained a Tel: (015) 516 5175/6/7 Fax: (015) 516 1012 leg injury and was replaced with 2012 Audi Q5 2.0 TSi A/T A/C S/Roof 19 900km R 429 995 Abbas Amidu.
