Leeus stuit Dave Lees berig op p.2

Plaaslike avonturier Dave van Graan (62) moes noodgedwonge sy staptog deur die Kaokoveld in die noorde van Namibië oor ‘n afstand van ongeveer 800 km opskort weens probleme met rondloperleeus. Een van sy se doelwitte was om soveel moontlik van dié klipmannetjies op te spoor. Daar is blykbaar 27 van die klipmannetjies deur ‘n kunstenaar opgerig en nêrens anders nie. Tot vandag toe is die werklike oorsprong en doel van die “beelde” steeds in geheimsinnigheid gehul. Dave kon 16 van die mannetjies opspoor. Sy byskrif by hierdie foto wat hy op Facebook geplaas het, het gelees dat hy baie dae soos hierdie mannetjie tydens sy staptog gevoel het. Foto verskaf.

ZOUTPANSBERGER, 21 FEBRUARIE 2020

Boere slaag sug van verligting na ophef van verbod Deur Andries van Zyl Wild- en veeboere, en veral veilingshuise, het Maandag ‘n sug van verligting geslaak nadat die minister van landbou en grondsake, me.

Thoko Didiza, die algehele nasionale verbod op die hou van wild- en veeveilings opgehef het.

Didiza het begin Desember verlede jaar die verbod op die hou van wild- en veeveilings in die Staatskoerant afgekondig in ‘n poging om die verdere verspreiding van bek-en-klouseer te probeer keer, nadat Veeartsenydienste is op 1 November 2019 in kennis gestel is dat bek-en-klouseer positief in ‘n trop beeste in die Molemole distrik (Dendron area) geïdentifi­ seer is. Die drastiese besluit om alle veilings te verbied het gevolg nadat die uitbreking van die siekte teruggespeur is na ‘n veilingskraal in die provinsie. Einde verlede jaar se uitbreking volg kort op die hakke van ‘n soortgelyke uitbreking van die siekte in Januarie 2019 in die Vhembe Distrik, wat onder meer daartoe gelei dat die Wêreld Organisasie vir Dieregesondheid (OIE) Suid-Afrika se bek-en-klouseer-vrye-sone status opgeskort het.

Baie het egter Didiza se besluit om ‘n totale verbod op veilings te plaas as te drasties en on­ deurdag beskou, wat ‘n uiters negatiewe impak op die wild- en veebedryf gehad het. Volgens mnr. Robert Gallon van Alldays, voorsitter van die Soutpansberg Distrikslandbou-unie se beeste- en wildkomitee, sal die bedryf eers oor so drie maande herstel. “Ons was uit die aard van die saak baie verheug en verlig dat die verbod uiteindelik opgehef is. Die mense het finansieel baie swaar gekry, aangesien dit [die verkoop van diere op veiling] ‘n groot deel van hul inkomste uitmaak. Dit het deurgetrek tot op werkersvlak, want daar was nie fondse om hulle lone mee te betaal nie. Dit was ook ‘n groot frustrasie dat vee nie vryelik verhandel kon word nie,” het Gallon gesê.

Gallon het gesê dat veilingshuise dit die ergste gevoel het. “Hulle het vir ongeveer vier maande geen inkomste gehad nie. Bemarkers het geen inkomste gehad nie en ander werkers moes

steeds betaal word. Slaghuise en supermarkte het ‘n duidelike afname in vleisverkope ervaar,” het Gallon gesê.

Wat betref die herstel van die bedryf be­ tref, het Gallon gesê dat daar vir nou eers ‘n ooraanbod van vee, veral speenkalwers, sal wees met veilings wat weer gehou kan word. Of die ooraanbod noodwendig ‘n daling in vleispryse tot gevolg sal hê, was Gallon pessimisties. “Nee, ek glo nie so nie,” het Gallon gesê.

Intussen het die Rooivleis Produsente Orga­ nisasie (RPO), wat deurlopend nou saamgewerk het met die Departement van Landbou om ‘n oplossing te kry vir die verdere verspreiding van die siekte, ook die minister se besluit op die verbod op te hef verwelkom. Volgens die RPO was die aanvanklike besluit ‘n uiters drastiese maatreël wat ‘n geweldige negatiewe impak op produsente en die bedryf gehad het, maar dit het egter ook vrugte afgewerp in die sin dat Suid-Afrika se belangrikste uitvoermarkte ten spyte van die verlies van sy bek-en-klouseer-vrye sone status weer geopen is. “Die opening van die Chinese handel is ‘n uiters relevante voorbeeld hiervan,” het die RPO in ‘n verklaring gesê.

Die RPO het ook die feit dat veilingsagen­ te nou by die Landbouprodukte Agenteraad (APAC) moet registreer, as ‘n voorwaarde tot die ophef van die verbod, verwelkom. Volgens die RPO is die Landbouprodukte Agenteraad reeds in 1992 ingestel ingevolge Wet 12 van 1992 en is die afdwing van die wet van kardinale belang, en daarom het hulle agente aangemoedig om dit wel te doen.

“Selfregulering in die rooivleisbedryf het nou krities belangrik geword indien ons die rooiv­ leisbedryf en markte wil beskerm en elke pro­ dusent in die land moet ons hiermee help,” het mnr Koos van der Ryst, voorsitter van die RPO, gesê. Dit sluit in die daarstel van ‘n vrywillige naspeurbaarheidstelsel wat deur die bedryf, in oorleg met die LITS SA (Livestock Identification and Traceability System) geïmplementeer sal word. Die bedryf het reeds in samewerking met die RPO ook maatreëls daargestel wat behoort te geld wanneer veilings in die toekoms gehou word. Hierdie maatreëls, het die RPO gesê, sal

eersdaags aangekondig en met verloop van tyd deur die Registrateur van Landbouprodukte Agente geïmplementeer word.

Die RPO het gesê dat dit ook noodsaaklik is dat beheermaatreëls vir bek-en-klouseer opgeskerp moet word in die drie provinsies wat as buffersones vir die bekamping van bek-enklouseer dien. Die geaffekteerde fasiliteite waar uitbrekings voorgekom het moet nou doeltref­ fend bestuur word ten einde die probleem op te los. “Ons het almal lesse geleer uit dit wat nou gebeur het. Produsente sal in die toekoms self baie meer verantwoordelikheid moet aanvaar om beheerde en aanmeldbare siektes op hul plase te voorkom. Die RPO se Kode van Beste Praktyk gee spesifieke riglyne in dié verband,” het Van der Ryst gesê.

Ongeveer 160 eiendomme is verbind met die veilingskraal waar die bek-en-klouseer uitbre­ king verlede jaar aangemeld is. Dit het inge­ sluit eiendomme wat primêr diere van hierdie veilingskraal ontvang het, of aan hulle voorsien het. Daar was ook eiendomme wat indirek met die veilingskraal verbind is. Didiza het in haar

toespraak ten opsigte van die ophef van die verbod gesê dat al die eiendomme besoek is en onder kwarantyn geplaas is. Daarna is kliniese inspeksies en ondersoeke gedoen om die omvang van blootstelling aan die siekte te bepaal. “Goeie vordering is gemaak en die voorlopige kwaran­ tyn is op 90 van hierdie eiendomme opgehef,” het Didiza gesê.

In totaal is beeste wat met bek-en-klouseer siekte besmet was op 18 plase geïdentifiseer.

“Meeste van die geaffekteerde eiendomme is kommersiële beesplase, insluitend ‘n aantal vo­ erkrale, wat gelukkig goed omhein was en indivi­ duele rekord van elke dier gehad het,” het Didiza gesê. Dit, het die minister gesê, het dit moontlik gemaak om beheermaatreëls in te stel sonder die nodigheid vir noodinentings, die uitwissing van kuddes en padblokkades. Van die primêre eiendomme wat met die besmette veilingskraal verbind is, is meer as 90% reeds besoek en hul bek-en-klouseer status bepaal. “Dit het Veeart­ senydienste genoeg selfvertoue gegee om aan te beweeg na die volgende fase van die beheer van die siekte,” het Didiza gesê.

Once upon a time this border town had tarred streets

By Andries van Zyl

Not much is left of Frank Street, with motorists having to zig-zag across the road to miss all the potholes. Photo supplied.

The once beautiful border town of Musina is falling apart, and one only has to take a drive through it to realise this.

“What did Musina have before gravel roads?” asked one irate resident. Then the answer comes: “Tarred streets!” Some may find this funny, but it is not. “By now we’ve almost become use to the ‘hop along’ when driving through town,” remarked another resident and business owner. For her, the situation borders on the ridiculous.

Musina, like the whole of the Soutpansberg area, experienced good rains over the past two weeks and for that everyone is extremely grate­ ful, especially people in this dry and arid part of the country. On 7 February alone, the town received a quick 60mm, causing localised flood­ ing. This localised flooding damaged the already dilapidated street infrastructure even further.

A post about the state of Musina’s streets on Facebook over the past weekend sparked quite a reaction. “One of the roads leading to our primary school, it should be closed. Yes, that is a 500ml empty coke bottle in one of the holes ... why is nothing done?” reads the post on Musina Bakgat Biltong’s page. Accompanying the post were pictured of the sad state of Copper Street.

Many responded by saying that the current state of Copper Street was so bad that it should be closed for safety reasons.

“Musina Local Municipality … no will and no shame!” was Cecil Henry Nel’s comment on the post. “Sad state of our roads in and around Musina. The problem is that our leaders don’t

care about us and they don’t care about our environment,” comment­ ed Sewani JC Kaunda. His advice was to get a few good Samaritans together, fix the streets and then take the invoices to the municipali­ ty to be reimbursed.

From all the comments the blame for the sad state of Musina’s streets is squarely placed on the Musina Municipality’s shoulders.

Some recommend that the Musina Municipality should be taken to court to not only fix the roads but also to deliver better services. “Our town is dirty and dilapidated,” wrote Nicoline Olivier. Chantal Schroeder, however, warned that taking a government institution to court was not easy as these cases normally ended up in the High Court, which could cost the plain­ tiffs millions in expenses. For the interim, some commented that it would be better to get a few people together and repair the damaged roads themselves.

In response to the complaints about the bad state of the streets in Musina, municipal spokesper­ son Mr Wilson Dzebu responded by saying that although they had an effective maintenance plan, executing the plan was a problem. “…it is sometimes hindered by (a)

shortage of resources, financial constraints and (a) shortage of manpower,” said Dzebu.

Dzebu added that they had iden­ tified various streets in town for urgent repair, Watson Street being one of them. “The damage caused by recent rains is huge,” he said.

The fact that the municipality is experiencing financial constraints was clear from Dzebu’s response that repair work could only start with financial assistance from the private sector. “With the financial assistance from De Beers Venetia Mine, an amount of R6,5 mil­ lion has been put aside to repair damaged roads. The work will commence at the beginning of next month (March 2020),” said Dzebu.

This project excludes the upgrading of Harper road, for which De Beers has already appointed a contractor, with work also to start next month (March) and to be completed the end of September 2020. “The Harper road is a different project altogether. It has nothing to do with the R6,5 million. The R6,5 million is for refurbishing internal access roads,” Dzebu said. He con­ cluded that the municipality hoped to see a huge improvement in the state of their roads once these proj­ ects started.

Elke keer wat die groepe dan bymekaar kom, word seker gemaak dat al 10 lede van die groep teenwoordig is. Mens kan dan dadelik sien as iemand vermis is. Daar word ook geensins met die volgende aktiwiteit, insluitend etes, aangegaan indien daar nie seker gemaak word dat almal teenwoor­ dig is nie.

Al Schoemansdal se personeel/fasiliteerders is in Vlak 2 noodhulp gekwalifiseer en gesertifi­ seerd. Daarbenewens is al die fasiliteerders ook “werk op hoogtes” gekwalifiseerd. Dus is almal van hulle bedrewe klimmers (abseiling, ziplining ens.) wat ook gesertifiseer is om reddingswerk met toue op hoogtes te doen.

Wat kampaktiwiteite betref, is Schoemans­ dal se uitgangspunt dat die reëls en regulasies eerstens daar is om die kind te beskerm. Uitein­ delik is ‘n kind ‘n ouer se kosbaarste besitting.

Hul leuse is: As jy dit nie veilig kan doen nie, moenie dit doen nie. Daar is ook deurlopend toesig. As dit nie die fasiliteerders self is nie, is dit die besoekende skool se onderwysers. Daar word ook van alle besoekende skole se onder­ wysers verwag om aan al die aktiwiteite deel te neem.

By Schoemansdal glo hulle daaraan om almal deurlopend konstruktief besig te hou, want die oomblik as kinders te veel vrye tyd tydens die kamp het, begin hulle rondhardloop en rond­ loop, wat lei tot insidente. Wat dit betref, word die kampreëls duidelik uiteengesit tydens elke skool se aankoms by Schoemansdal.

Hoërskool Louis Trichardt het onlangs van die Schoemansdal Omgewingsopvoedingsentrum buite Louis Trichardt gebruik gemaak vir die aanbied van hulle Graad 8 oriënteringskamp.

Schoemansdal is al vir dekades ‘n gewilde bestemming vir skole vir “veldskoolkampe”, met ‘n uitstaande veiligheidsrekord. Foto: Hoërskool Louis Trichardt (Facebook).

DOPPERONTBYT

Vir die smulpape onder ons wag daar die beste moontlike geleentheid om die jaar op ‘n hoë noot af te skop. Die jaarlikse Dopperontbyt by die Fransie Vermaak Saal op Saterdag, 29 Februarie, beloof om alle verwagtinge te oortref, en dit teen ‘n winskoopprys!

Die spyskaart lyk soos dié van ‘n vyfster ho­ tel wat sy gaste tot in die afgrond wil bederf.

Tussen 08:00 en 10:00 kan inwoners kom smul aan muesli, vrugte en jogurt, gevolg deur spek, roereier, gebakte worsies, ‘n maalvle­ isgereg, hoenderlewers, sousboontjies, ver­ skillende soorte mieliepap met tamatiesmoor (plus ‘n verrassing!), en ‘n verskeidenheid van brode met konfyt.

Vir die droë kele is daar vrugtesap en ‘n skeutjie sjampanje om die lekkertes af te sluk, asook koffie en tee ná die tyd. Hierdie feesmaal is beskikbaar teen slegs R80 vir volwassenes, R50 vir hoërskool­ en R30 vir laerskoolleerlinge, met voorskoolse kinders wat gratis kan kom eet. Slegs 200 kaartjies is beskikbaar, so mense sal moet gou spring.

Skakel so gou moontlik vir Nanette by die kerkkantoor (015 516 4007) of by 0843044764 of stuur ‘n WhatsApp na 0719106908. Moet dit nie misloop nie!

Gewapende Magte-dag 25 Jaar van verdediging in demokrasie

2020

GEWAPENDE MAGTE-DAG, 21 FEB 2020, POLOKWANE.

Die Regering het in 2012 aangekondig dat 21 Februarie as Gewapende Magte-dag gevier en herdenk sal word. Gewapende Magte-dag gaan nie slegs daaroor dat die SANW kan wys waartoe hy in staat is in ‘n gesimuleerde gevegsomgewing nie, maar oor die uitreik na die land se mense. Ons het met die viering van Gewapende Magte-dag hierdie jaar twee hoofdoelwitte vanuit die staanspoor gestel: om die SANW aan die mense, wat hulle onderneem het om te dien, ten toon te stel en om sy vermoëns om die soewereiniteit van hierdie land te verdedig te toets. Die taak om 8500 soldate, matrose, mediese ordonanse en lugmagpersoneel van regoor die land suksesvol by ‘n enkele punt te mobiliseer - en hulle vir ‘n aansienlike tyd daar te hou - is ‘n geweldige logistieke oefening.

Dit is ook ‘n dag waarop die Suid-Afrikaanse bevolking die mans en vroue van die Suid-Afrikaanse Nasionale Weermag vereer deur sy steun en dankbaarheid teenoor hulle te bevestig vir die handhawing van die Grondwet van die Republiek. Dit is om hierdie rede dat Gewapende Magte-dag saamval met die herdenking van die sink van die troepeskip SS Mendi op 21 Februarie 1917, waartydens 616 lede van die Suid-Afrikaanse Naturelle-arbeidskorps (South African Native Labour Corps) en 33 bemanningslede in die ysige waters van die Engelse-kanaal omgekom het.

Die President van Suid-Afrika, Cyril Ramaphosa, is die hoof uitvoerende beampte van die Parade, in sy kapasiteit as die Opperbevelvoerder van die SANW. Kom woon hierdie skouspelagtige gebeurtenisse by ter ondersteuning van Gewapende Magte-dag: STATIESE UITSTALLING VAN MILITÊRE VOERTUIE EN LEWENDIGE ARENA DEMONSTRASIES: 14-19 Feb | Polokwane Krieket Klub 08h00 - 18h00, daagliks SANW & CSIM Pret Draf/Stap 15 Feb | Ngoaka Ramathlodi Saal, Seshego 06h00 vir 06h30 MILITÊRE MUSIEK KONSERT 17 Feb | Ngoako Ramathlodi Saal, Seshego Sal ook vir die publiek by die Seshego-stadion lewendig gestroom word.

Bikers across SA can help save children’s lives

CLEARANCE SALE OLD STANDARD BANK BUILDING LOUIS TRICHARDT

Charity The Soutpansberg was one of the stops along Dr André Hattingh’s Ride for a Child project that “kick-started” in Mpumalanga last week.

Pediatric Care Africa’s Dr André left Witrivier on 15 February on his road king Harley David­ son and will travel South Africa for an approx­ imate distance of 5600km, visiting the most northern, southern, eastern and western points accessible by road bike during this epic trip. On Sunday, he stayed over at the Lalapanzi Hotel outside Louis Trichardt.

The purpose of this mega “Ride for a Child” charity ride is to generate funds for Paediatric Care Africa’s 1000 surgeries for 1000 children campaign and to raise awareness of the plight of children who require surgeries and simply can­ not get help. Dr André will ride the entire route and distance of about 5 600km and Pediatric Care Africa invited guest riders and motorbike clubs across South Africa to join him anywhere on his route.

Dr André is a dad of three and a grandfather of four and is challenging all (grand)parents to ride along for a section of the route as sponsored riders, whereby they are sponsored for R1 per km by a friend, a company or themselves to benefit this charity ride. Example: Guest rider travels for with Dr André from Ermelo to Nel­ spruit for 210km and back home for 210km, so the guest rider will then be sponsored for 420km = R420.

“We are making an appeal to companies and private persons to sponsor Dr André and/or guest riders for R1 per kilometre they complete, and sponsor documents for companies and guest riders will be available on our website soon,” said Pediatric Care Africa in a statement on their website https://www.pediatriccareafrica. org/.

The R1 per kilometre will no doubt assist Pediatric Care Africa to arrange surgeries for poor children. Some of the surgeries required range from grommets in their ears to heart­valve replacement and anything in between. “We as bike riders of South Africa can save countless lives of children that cannot receive surgery or medical treatment, simply because they are too poor!” said Pediatric Care Africa.

Hierdie week, 25 jaar gelede in die

Zoutpansberger

Hoe meer dinge verander, hoe meer bly dit dieselfde ... Dit kan beslis gesê word van die weer in die Soutpansberg. Die afgelope week het goeie reën oor die streek uitgesak, met berigte van tot 300 mm op plekke. Hierdie week, 25 jaar gelede, was reën ook die hoofberig op die voorblad van die Zoutpansberger van 24 Februarie 1995.

Neerslae van tot 300 mm is toe ook vanaf plekke in die voormalige Venda gerapporteer. Net soos verlede week se neerslae van ongeveer 250 mm op Levubu en sowat 150 mm vir Louis Trichardt, is soortgelyke syfers 25 jaar gelede aangeteken. Hierdie reën is toe veroorsaak deur ‘n swak sikloon wat aan die onderpunt van Zimbabwe deur beweeg het.

Other front-page news was the election of Mr Solly Noor as the new chairman of the executive committee of the Greater Louis Trichardt Transitional Council. Noor made himself available for the post of chairman at the last minute and addressed the fears of residents of the town by assuring them that nothing would change dramatically and that the new council would work hard to keep up the high standard of the former Louis Trichardt Municipality. At the same time, Ald Johan Moolman was re-elected as mayor, with Cllr Eckols Matodzi as deputy mayor.

Also making news 25 years ago was the article about the heroic efforts of two teachers and a pupil to save the life of a 17-yearold pupil at Mopane School. The pupil complained to teacher Arie Venter that he was not feeling well after an athletics meeting. Venter saw the child was in distress and made him lie down on some high-jump mats in a nearby classroom. Shortly afterwards, the child stopped breathing and had no pulse.

He summoned the then headmaster, Roelf Palm, who rushed to the scene. Palm could also find no pulse and the child was thought to have passed away. Not giving up on the

child, Venter (who had emergency first-aid knowledge) started with CPR on the child.

Much to everyone’s surprise, the child took a huge gulp of air. Spurred on by this, Venter and one of the pupil’s friends continued with CPR while waiting for an ambulance.

Realising that the ambulance would take too long, it was decided to load the child onto the only available transport, a bakkie with only enough fuel to get to Bokmakierie. At Bokmakierie, a pump attendant stood ready to put fuel in the bakkie, from where the child was rushed to Messina Hospital. About 15 kilometres outside Messina, the ambulance was flagged down, and the boy was transferred to it. At that stage, the boy’s heart had stopped beating five times. In hospital, the boy was diagnosed with a heart defect, treated and discharged the following day.

Bakkies Botha maak kinderharte bly by Triegies Deur Veruscka van der Linde Laerskool Louis Trichardt het Saterdag, 15 Februarie, hulle eerste groot jaarlikse fondsinsamelingsprojek gehou, naamlik ‘n besoek van bekende oud-Springbok rugbyspeler Bakkies Botha.

Bakkies se besoek het deel gevorm van ‘n groot rugby- en netbaldag by die skool waar daar ook rugbyproewe

gespeel is. Kinders en hul ouers kon die dag skouers skuur met Bakkies, wat ook ‘n praatjie aangebied het. Onder leiding van seremoniemeester Philip Potgieter het Bakkie die skare lekker laat lag met al sy vertellings. Hy het ook ‘n baie inspirerende boodskap vir almal gehad, naamlik dat sekere kanse net een keer oor mens se pad kom en dat jy hierdie kanse moet aangryp en jou beste doen.

“Moenie 80% gee as jy ‘n 100% persoon

is nie. Wees die verskil en moenie vir ander mense sit en wag om ‘n verskil te maak nie. Handhaaf dissipline in jou alledaagse bestaan en veral, hou jou oë op God gerig, want alles wat jy het en is, is sy genade,” het Bakkies gesê.

Die organiseerders van die dag het hul dank uitgespreek teenoor al die borge van Bakkies se besoek. Die borge was Brandvlei Verspreiders, Royal Makadamia, BB Mount Fuji, PD Otto Elektries, Premjee & Sons, Courier Guy, Cois Elektries, Marco Markagente, Houers Koöperatief, Laeveld Agrochem, Prinsloo en Venter Markagente en Jack­ son Vervoer.

Ander persone en instansies wat ‘n bydrae gelewer het om die dag ‘n sukses te maak, het ingesluit U-Print, Ronel Esterhuizen van Classic Signs & Print­ ing, Karen Smit van Karen’s Catering, Jaco en Leenke Burger van Spar, Liezl Botha vir die skildery vir die Rian Bur­ cell fonds, Christel Smith van Roman’s Pizza, The Garden Shop, Tannie Maud en Tannie Barp, Perfect Water, Avo en MacRidge, Le-Ann van der Walt en Nico van Silver Stage Hire.

Die borge van die gelukkige trekkings het ingesluit Fitness Fusion Gym, Audio Sat 4 x4 (braai geskenkpak), CJ’s Haar­ salon, Njala Lodge, Michelle Maynier, Salon Anita, o.10 meisies (Sunset Champagne Horseback Ride), o.13 meisies (Pemico Auto Body), Remax Helderstroom, Chill Temp (Adriaan en Herman Meiring), Die Vleismark, Christel van Roman’s Pizza en Luke Enslin van Louis Trichardt Spar.

Cyclists want to promote healthier lifestyle

By Bernard Chiguvare Two young cyclists from Madombidzha hope to promote a healthier lifestyle in their neighbourhood by encouraging young and old to rather participate in sport. At the same time they believe it can reduce levels of crime and other social ills.

“It is sad to note that youths are involved in various crimes and become victims of substance abuse. We really can make a change in the community

we live in,” says Gift Nefolovhodwe, founder of the “Gifted Cycling Club” based in Madombidzha. He is currently a student at Makwarela TVET. Nefolovhodwe and his friend, Inno­ cent Mabetha, believe that young people should rather spend their free time doing sport. Both are avid cyclists and they reckon cycling is a way to promote health and also instill a sense of pride in especially young people. “I am inviting all youths in Venda to join our club,” he says. Nefolovhodwe points out that

virtually no cycling clubs can be found in the local communities. “Yet this is a sporting activity where one can take part in competitions and earn recogni­ tion,” says the 27­year­old Nefolovhod­ we. The two young men started training six boys and two girls in November last year. They use four bicycles that were donated by community members to do the training. Currently they only train boys and girls aged between 12 and 19.

For more information, Nefolovhodwe can be contacted at 066 525 0506.
