In some cases, the Minister of Transport may relax legislation to allow political parties to put up election posters on traffic signs. “SANRAL has not received a letter from the Minister of Transport to relax the conditions regarding the placement of political posters on road traffic signs,” stated SANRAL. No feedback was received from the Makhado Municipality, other than

municipal spokesperson Mr Louis Bobodi’s indicating that he was trying to get information. The newspaper wanted to know from the municipality, among other things, which political parties had applied and been granted permission to put up election posters, whether these illegal poster would be removed and whether a political party could be fined for contravening the regulations of the National Roads Act.

With the election posters starting to go up again over the past week or so, the Zoutpansberger started receiving complaints from residents about election posters’ being placed on road traffic signs, especially on the N1.

The Zoutpansberger recently received complaints about the terrible state of the men’s toilets at the Makhado Municipality’s licencing department. Visitors to the municipality stated that the blocked urinals were not only causing a big stink, but also posed a serious health risk. Upon enquiry, municipal spokesperson Mr Louis Bobodi said that they had attended to most of the challenges with their toilets. “However, we are currently processing a major refurbishment of all ablution facilities within the Civic Centre building,” said Bobodi.

ol ontferming. Die beste woord vir hier die wonderlike begrip is medelydend, innig jammer, liefde wat gereed staan om te help. Dit is ‘n kenmerk van God, soos Chris tus dit keer op keer so treffend vertoon het. Die Here verwag dieselfde van sy kinders. Ontferming, tot ‘n punt waar God in Ho sea 11:8 sê: “My hart is omgekeer in My…”, is die vrug van teerhartigheid, bowenal vir hulle geestelike nood, maar ook vir hulle tydelike nood. Vriendelikheid. Hierdie kosbare juweel het baie glanspunte. Dit moet oral beoefen word, maar in besonder in jou eie huis en vriendekring, sodat hulle die egtheid daarvan kan ervaar. Egte vriendelikheid is nie net glimlaggende gesigte voor belangrike mense of in openbare plekke nie. Dit begin by geduld, hulpvaardigheid, bedagsaamheid en goeie maniere van ‘n ware ‘heer’ of ‘dame’ in sy of haar huis. Dit is eg en spontaan en vir almal duidelik. Die ‘monster’ in jou moet plek maak vir die ‘Meester’ se eie gesind heid van vriendelikheid en ontferming. - Ds. Johan Marais (Louis Trichardt Baptistekerk)

Voter registration the past weekend seemed to have progressed fairly smoothly, albeit that the turnout was not wonderful. The Zoutpansberger visited two voting stations, namely at Makhado Library and Masedi Combined School in Tshikota on Sunday (18th) to monitor the proceedings. Very few new voters showed up to register at Makhado Library, while at Tshikota the ANC, DA and EFF had each set up camp a few metres away from the registration centre. The political parties looked happy and prepared for the upcoming elections. They all seemed to be satisfied with how the day progressed at the Tshikota voting station. Some residents paid visits to their respective camps, while others disappeared into the voting centre to register. Bessy Jones, DA PR councillor for Makhado Municipality, said that they were a little concerned that so few people had come out to register. “We are not sure why this is. It could be that the residents are unhappy with all the unsettled services delivery issues,” she said. Desiree van der Walt, DA Limpopo campaign manager for the elections, spoke about the voter

registration in Vhembe District as a whole, “There were some glitches at some of the voting registration centres concerning voter-management devices (VDM), but the IEC (Independent Electoral Commission) was prepared for this,” van der Walt said. “We (DA) were also prepared with our own forms to monitor the IEC. Voters signed our forms as proof in case they do not appear on the voters’ roll, come voting day. This would allow them to vote. Overall, the process went well.” Dunani Baloyi, the EFF Vhembe’s regional secretary, also applauded the voter-registration process. “Though the registration was slow, maybe due to networks, the process went well. However, we are concerned that voters who might have left without registering on Saturday due to the slow process, did not come back again on Sunday, as some of them live far away,” he said. Huge Khosa from the Pan African Congress (PAC) of Azania also alluded that the process went well. “Though the process went well, the majority of voters are just so demoralised by the government, who have been making false promises since 1996. We did not see many voters coming out to register for the upcoming elections,” said Khosa, who is Musina’s sub-region elections coordinator for the PAC.

No vote if deadly road is not ﬁxed By Bernard Chiguvare The ongoing fight by community structures to get the government to deliver on their promise to do something about the state of the D3715 Road still seems to be falling on deaf ears. The Sinthumule-Kutama Concerned Group (formerly known as the Sinthumule-Kutama Crisis Committee), the Dzanani Taxi Association and the Kutama Business Forum held a briefing last Friday where the MEC for Public Works and Infrastructure was called on to meet with them urgently regarding this issue. “We are not going to close voting registration stations in our area, but if the Limpopo Department of Public Works and Infrastructure does not heed our call, there will not be any voting from anyone in this area,” said Elijah Liremi, a member of the Sinthumule-Kutama Concerned Group. To date, many innocent lives have already been lost on the D3715 Road because of its poor and potholed condition. This is also not the first time that communities have raised concerns about the state of this road. Last year (2020), hundreds of people, led by the Zoutpansberg Community Development Forum, marched to the Makhado Municipality to protest about the road and other problems. Earlier this year, another march to the Makhado Municipality about the state of the same road took place. “When will they listen to us? This matter involves the lives of our people,” the structures say. The Makhado mayor urged the Kutama-Sinthumule Concerned Group to be patient and promised to look into the issue. But residents are not satisfied with this repeated promise anymore. “We call on all Kutama-Sinthumule residents not to go and vote if the D3715 Road is not fixed by 1 October 2021. We will shut down all voting stations in our area on voting day (1 November 2021),” the community structures

warned, and further urged motorists not to renew their driving licence discs, should the department fail to attend urgently to the issue at hand. The community structures gave the Limpopo Department of Public Works seven days to meet with them. In response to this paper’s enquiry whether the department would meet with the structures, the spokesperson for the Limpopo Department of Public Works and Infrastructure, Joe Seabi, confirmed that MEC Namane Dickson Masemola had invited them to a meeting on Thursday, 23 September 2021. “We are aware of the state of the road. The MEC has been to the road before. At the time, the complaint was about both the D3715 and D959 Roads, which had been largely rehabilitated, and a solution has been prepared for D3715,” Seabi said. “We urge people to vote and exercise their democratic rights, whilst respecting other people’s rights in the process. The roads have been part of our priorities for rehabilitation and the D3715 Road will also be attended to.”

Another resident, Mr Mahlatse Mathekgane, said that the residents had occupied the farm after they had heard that Makhado Municipality was selling residential and business stands on the site by public auction. “This completely disregards the poor people of Tshikota. We decided to occupy this land because we are from poor backgrounds and cannot afford the money for bidding nor buying those stands,” he said. He said that the municipality was in breach of its promise. His shack was also demolished on Monday. “We came here because we don’t have money and we need a place to live. This land has been standing empty for years. Our municipality is not right, and they still want us to vote. Let it be clear: we will not vote if this is how we are treated,” said another resident, Ms Josephina Msiza. “They see us as staying here illegally, but when

it’s time to vote, they want us all to vote.” She said most of the residents would not be voting in the coming elections. The Makhado Municipality’s spokesperson, Mr Louis Bobodi, said that the municipality had obtained an interim court order in the Limpopo High Court last week. The interdict forbids the allocation of stands and the erecting or the extending of structures by the land occupiers. It also authorises the municipality to demolish any complete or incomplete structure, occupied or not occupied, erected on the property. Bobodi said that the municipality had included a low-cost housing scheme in its 2021/22 budget. This entails building 100 RDP homes on a different piece of land. “No shack can be erected on land which was not purchased or hired. So, in terms of the act, those shacks were illegal,” he said.

Ninth soldier arrested in cross-border smuggle case Court News The Directorate for Priority Crime Investigation (Hawks) arrested another member of the South African National Defence Force (SANDF) on Monday for his alleged involvement in the cross-border vehicle-smuggling syndicate. This brings the total number of SANDF members arrested to nine.

Initially, six soldiers were arrested by the Hawks on 21 June this year. They were arrested in the North-West, Northern Cape and the Free State. A seventh accused handed himself over to the authorities later. All were stationed at the Beitbridge Border Post between 2017 and 2019. They had allegedly connived with vehicle-smuggling syndicates to smuggle stolen vehicles through the Limpopo River in exchange for

money. In return, the arrested SANDF members would allegedly demand R15 000 per vehicle, which would be shared among themselves. Five of the initial seven SANDF members arrested hold the rank of Private. They are Edward Lepokolo (48) from Sebokeng, Rapula Reuben Maidi (49) from Ikageng, Bulelani Danti (30) from King Williams Town, Peter Thato Nemane (52) from Soshanguve and Thembani Mjelo (31) from East London. Two accused hold the rank of Lance-Corporal. They are Marks Funeka (49) from Carletonville and Ludwe Gwedashe (44) from Port Elizabeth. The Hawks’ continuous sting operation to address the scourge of cross-border crimes in Limpopo, dubbed operation “Night Vigil”,

resulted in the arrest of an eighth suspect in connection with the Beitbridge smuggling case on 15 September in the Northern Cape. He was the 30-year-old Valentine Sedimosang Phetoe, who holds the rank of Private. Phetoe appeared in the Musina Magistrate’s Court last Thursday and was granted R3 000 bail. He and his seven co-accused, who were all granted R3 000 bail, will have to be back in court on 25 October for their next court appearance. The ninth suspect, who was arrested in Polokwane, was identified as the 31-year-old Private Luglen Peacock from the Eastern Cape. He appeared in the Musina Magistrate’s Court on Tuesday and his case was postponed to Tuesday, 28 September, for a formal bail application.

Lutendo Muthabuli, who works under the Makhado Expanded Public Works Programme, was tasked to remove all the abortion posters pasted onto walls, trees, electricity poles and road signs, but he says this job never ends. “As soon as I remove them, they are merely replaced with others. Nearly all the trees in the park next to Makhado Library are decorated with these abortion posters.” Limpopo Mirror caught up with Mutabuli last week as he was busy removing more posters.

Hierdie week, 25 jaar gelede in die

Zoutpansberger

Hierdie week, 25 jaar gelede, het lesers van die Zoutpansberger ook hulself gereed gemaak vir die viering van Erfenisdag, ‘n dag wat later meer prominent sou bekendstaan as nasionale Braaidag op 24 September. Op die nuusfront was dinge maar relatief stil gewees, maar nie noodwendig op die misdaadfront nie. Die voorblad en die res van die Zoutpansberger van 20 September 1996 bestaan uit ‘n allegaartjie van klein misdaadberigte. So word eienaars van veral bakkies gewaarsku om hul voertuie se veilige bewaring te verseker, nadat vier bakkies die voorafgaande week in Louis Trichardt gesteel is. Die bekende Desai Trading het op hulle beurt deurgeloop onder ‘n gewapende roof. Vyf gewapende mans het die winkel binnegestorm kort nadat een van die eienaars, mnr. Narendra Desai, van die bank af teruggekom het. Die aanvallers het Desai vir die geldsak gevra, maar hy wou dit nie aan die diewe oorhandig nie. Toe die aanvallers dreig om Desai te skiet, het Desai se vrou vir hom gevra om eerder die sak geld vir hulle te gee. Die mans het egter nie die taal verstaan waarin Desai se vrou met hom gepraat het nie, en gedink die twee is besig om te konkel agter hulle rug. Hulle het toe begin om Desai aan te rand. Uit vrees dat hulle sy vrou gaan skiet, het Desai hulle na sy kantoor geneem waar die mans hom van die sak geld en die egpaar se persoonlike besittings beroof het. Hulle het daarna in Desai se voertuig op die vlug geslaan. Desai het ná die tyd sy ontevredenheid uitgespreek

oor die gebrek aan sigbare polisiëring in Eltivillas waar hul winkel geleë is. Op ‘n positiewe noot het inwoners daardie week saam met die Noor-familie feesgevier. Bekende plaaslike sakeman Solly Noor en sy vrou Zora se dogter, Farzana, het daardie week verloof geraak aan Zunaid Ayob. Op die sportfront was dorpsrugby nog uiters gewild. Met die rugbyseisoen wat daardie jaar amper op sy rug gelê het, het Louis Trichardt se eerste rugbyspan, oftewel die Bloues, onoorwonne deurgedring na die finaal van die provinsiale liga. Daardie jaar was die vierde agtereenvolgende jaar gewees dat die Bloues deurgedring het na die finaal van die liga. Die vorige drie jaar was hulle die ligawenners gewees.

Graad 11-leerder Rynard Pretorius van Hoërskool Louis Trichardt het op 6 September aan die tweede ronde van die rekenaar programmeringolimpiade vir skole deelgeneem. Hy is ná afloop daarvan aangewys as die tweede beste presteerder in die Limpopo Provinsie. Buiten vir hierdie topprestasie, dring Rynard ook deur na die finaal van die Wits Wiskunde Kompetisie, die enigste leerling van die skool wat dit kon regkry. Foto verskaf.

Graad 11-leerder Marissa de Coning van Hoërskool Eric Louw het ná afloop van die provinsiale uitdunronde van die interskole redenaars voorverlede naweek gekwalifiseer vir deelname aan die nasionale Interskole finaal op 9 Oktober vanjaar.

WHAT IS HAPPENING? OPKOMEND

SEPTEMBER

PETROL HEADS CELEBRATE HERITAGE DAY To celebrate

National Heritage Day, local “petrol heads” and vintage-vehicle enthusiasts plan on driving to Lalapanzi Hotel. The previous outing to Levubu was such a success that the participants asked for a repeat. The suggestion was that a drive be organised once a month. These events are not limited to vintage cars over a certain age, as the term “vintage” is very broad. During the Levubu outing, the classic vehicles included trucks, motorcycles and a 1986 Citi Golf with an 1800 engine and automatic gearbox, one of only a few to exit the factory in this configuration. A large number of Land Rovers that are still doing duty on farms are also considered to be classic vehicles. The Lalapanzi outing will once again be a very informal gathering. The vehicles will leave town from about 09:00, driving to the hotel, which is roughly 28 kilometres south of Louis Trichardt along the N1. At the hotel, snacks are available, and drinks can be bought. The enthusiasts will be able to park their vehicles on the grassy area next to the swimming pool and relax in the shade of the trees. “You can even bring along your swimming costumes and cool off in the pool,” the hotel owners said. People interested in joining the outing are asked to confirm with Charles Leach (083 228 3874) or Anton van Zyl (084 616 4997).

The war that was supposed to end all wars had come to an end, but not before an estimated nine million people had lost their lives. To pay homage those who died in the war and subsequent wars, Remembrance Day is commemorated annually. The Memorable Order of Tin Hats (MOTH) of Louis Trichardt will be holding their annual Remembrance Day parade and wreath-laying ceremony on 14 November at 10:30 for 11:00 at their Turbi Hills Shell Hole at 66 Burger Street.

photo-Novel competition four boys playing skyball on a wednesday afternoon.

THE DAY I THOUGHT MY LIFE WAS OVER

Mrs. redfern walking around the carpark.

oh what a nice shot!

a story by: Xirimbi Baloyi featuring: Chavi, Minkhendo, khobane & Mrs Redfern The good news is that you are now down to the size XXS...

nice shot!

awesome kick dude!

let’s get out of here!

the ball headed straight for mrs redfern’s car.

xirimbi kicks the ball and things take a turn for the worst...

yea... i want to live to see another day

i’m a dead man

xirimbi! you are in so much trouble young man!

oh no... what did i do!? follow me to my office so you can explain yourself.

yes... ma’am ma’am, i kicked the ball and it accidently hit your car

The last story - but you were all stars Our photo-novel competition has reached its final stage this week. All that is now left is for the judges to announce an overall winner, but that will only happen next week. This week’s winner is Xirimbi Baloyi, another student from Ridgeway College. What we liked about Xirimbi’s entry is the simplicity. He took an everyday occurrence and built a story around it that is light-hearted and entertaining, which is exactly what you would expect from such “comics”. Not to say that photo-novels should

not be serious. Previous entries by people like Zwothe Thothori showed that you can address problems in society through this type of story-telling. From the organisers’ side we need to thank all the people who submitted entries. The competition was well supported by our young readers, especially from Ridgeway College. No special incentive existed for schools to encourage their children to enter, but Ridgeway seemed to have done that and supported the young creative geniuses.

look, it’s my fault i shouldn’t have parked my car near the netball courts. you are forgiven.

When the competition started, we used our in-house team to get the ball rolling. We thought a couple of weeks might pass before the entries would arrive, but we were pleasantly surprised by the response. In the final two weeks, we received a number of good entries, to such an extent that choosing a winner was difficult. We also feel very guilty about the fact that we cannot publish all the entries, but space simply does not allow for that. So – a special thank you to the ones who submitted stories that were not used. Thanks to Matodzi Mukwevho – we liked your approach to encourage people not to litter and to show up hypocrisy. Thanks to Sindi Dagada. You had

i live to see another day. next time i am going to play on the soccer field

a good concept, but it got slightly complicated and became difficult to follow in just 12 photos. But, with a bit of refinement, it could work. Thanks to Sikhubuni Beauty for her entry. This one was slightly weird and, unfortunately, it had a “to be continued” part, which obviously made considering it for the last entry difficult. (But it was interesting). Phoebe Joubert’s entry was delightful and if the competition had continued for another week or two, she might have won. We also had two more entries from previous winners, namely Zwothe Thothori and Nyandano Ramushweu. Thank you so much. You are all superstars.

Laerskool Louis Trichardt se prefekte van 2021 het as deel van hulle jaarlikse skoolprojek bome by die skool geplant. Hierdie boomplantaksie het op 16 September plaasgevind. In totaal is 11 bome geplant, waarvan almal inheems was, byvoorbeeld ‘n kremetart, ‘n koraalboom, ‘n breëblaar valsdoring en ‘n nyala boom. Die hoofleiers het saam met skoolhoof me. Irene Adendorff ook ‘n boom geplant. Die doel van die projek was nie net om mense bewus te maak van die belangrikheid van bome nie, maar ook om vir die prefekte kans te gee om iets terug te gee vir die skool. Afgeneem is die prefekte.

ZOUT CLASSIFIEDS “Vandale” teiken CVO Zoutpansberg

TE HUUR

“Vandale” het verlede Dinsdagaand/Woensdagoggend by die CVO Skool Zoutpansberg buite Louis Trichardt toegeslaan en ietwat amok gemaak. Twee vragte sand is op die pad na die skool afgelaai, terwyl die skool se hoofhek met etlike duisende bakstene toegepak is. Op die skoolterrein self is klaskamerdeure versper met hope grond, tafels is onder meer omgekeer en die prentjie van verwoesting is afgerond met toiletpapier wat oor die terrein en geboue gegooi is. Naamborde by van die “skade” wat aangerig is, het egter ‘n leidraad gegee vir wie daarvoor verantwoordelik was: “Trots geborg deur Graad 12”. Dit was weliswaar die skool se Graad 12-leerlinge wat in goeie gees bietjie pret gehad het met hul skool met die viering van hul “40 Days”. Die Graad 12’s is nou in die pylvak om hulle skoolloopbaan van 12 jaar oor die volgende 14 dae te voltooi. Die skade was darem nie regtig skade nie en kon vinnig herstel en opgeruim word.

LEGALS DEON RETIEF ATTORNEYS

Andani and Ruben takes third place By Karla van Zyl This past weekend, one of Louis Trichardt’s most promising young mountain bikers, Andani Raphalalani (16) of Ridgeway College, took on a serious challenge in Tzaneen. The challenge was the Magoeba Trek Mountain Bike 40km Stage Race from 17 to 19 September, with cyclists

having to complete some 40km of intense mountain biking every day with a daily elevation gain of more than 1 000m. Before Andani and his teammate, 16-year-old Ruben van Tonder from Mokopane, took on the cold, tough terrain and other challenging teams, they had to do some serious preparation. The two had to prepare to handle the climb-

ing, distance and fast pace of racing to finish the race strongly over the period of three days. On the first day, Andani and Ruben finished third overall, with a sizeable gap between them and the fourth-place finishers. On day two, the duo crossed the line in fifth place, with only a few minutes between them and the fourth-place finishers, which meant they still had a chance at a great overall finish and performance. On day three, the pair gave it their all and managed to scoop a third place again. This placed them third overall in the general classification, securing them an overall third place over the three days for this difficult and challenging race. The event was hosted by Insect Science, one of South Africa’s leading sponsors of mountain biking, including youth cycling. The race featured amazing trails, stunning views and an overall great atmosphere. “It was definitely something to remember and definitely something that we will be doing next year,” said Andani.

Runners brave the cold to support IsAbility Fun Run Para-Athletics Both Para-athletes and able-bodied athletes had the opportunity to rub shoulders with the Soutpansberg’s own Paralympic bronze medallist Sheryl James during the IsAbility Sport Club’s fun run the past weekend. The fun run was hosted in conjunction with the Soutpansberg Athletics Club, with the fun run starting and finishing at the Tourism Information Centre in the town’s tree park. “The IsAbility Sports Club and Soutpansberg Athletics Club would like to thank all those who pitched up on a cold, rainy morning to support the cause of a healthy lifestyle by participating in the fun run/walk. Fun was had by all! Particular thanks go to Ridgeway College for registering over 50 entrants from amongst their students,” said the organisers. The clubs also thanked

Krieketnuus ‘n Paaltjie met die eerste bal van die wedstryd kon dalk vir die manne van Ridgeway College Saterdag hoop gegee het vir ‘n wen in hul 20-beurt kragmeting teen Strikers, maar dit was hulle nie beskore nie. Slegs een wedstryd is die afgelope naweek gespeel in die Louis Trichardt Krieketklub se volgende ronde wedstryd van hul 20-beurt liga. Strikers en Ridgeway College het Saterdag mekaar die stryd aangesê by die Louis Trichardt Ovaal. Ridgeway het met die eerste bal van die wedstryd bloed getrek toe hulle vir openingskolwer Dirk Pieter van den Berg vir ‘n nulletjie uitgevang het. Hulle opgewondenheid was egter van korte duur, met Strikers se mede-opening-

skolwer Etienne Hendriks wat ‘n blitsige 56 lopies van slegs 35 balle gemoker het. Dit het ingesluit sewe viere en twee sesse. Spanmaat Johan van Rooyen, in op nommer drie, het Hendriks goed ondersteun met 35 lopies vanaf 42 balle (drie viere en twee sesse). Ander kolwers wat dubbelsyfers kon aanteken, was Zeeshan met 16 lopies van 17 balle af, Christo Boshoff met 23 lopies van 14 balle af en JP van Niekerk met 11 lopies van vyf balle af. Strikers kon in hulle kolfbeurt daarin slaag om 165 lopies vir die verlies van ses paaltjies aan te teken. Vir Ridgeway College het Craig Viljoen die beste met die bal gevaar en hy het twee paaltjies platgetrek vir die verlies van 22 lopies in sy vier boulbeurte. Bielie van den Berg, Naweed Jolly en Suffiyan Dala het elk een paaltjie geneem. Ridgeway het hul kolfbeurt goed begin, met Suffiyan Dala wat 23 lopies van 18 balle aangeteken het (wat ingesluit het twee viere en ‘n ses) en Craig Viljoen, wat ‘n vinnige 45 lopies van slegs 22 balle (wat ingesluit het agt viere en ‘n ses) aangeteken het. Ridgeway se laaste kolwer wat egter dubbelsyfers kon aanteken was Fahan Kato, in op nommer drie, met 12 lopies van 15 balle af. Daarna het Ridgeway se kolfbeurt ‘n redelike insinking beleef, met die laaste sewe paaltjies wat geval het vir slegs 17 lopies. Die span is almal uitgeboul vir 113 lopies in 17 beurte. Vir die Strikers het Christo Boshoff uitgestaan as bouler. Hy het vier paaltjies geneem vir die verlies van slegs ses lopies in twee beurte. Paulo Piorek, Riaan Gerber en Dirk Pieter van den Berg het op hulle beurt elk twee paaltjies ingeoes. Wat eerskomende Vrydag, 24 September, se beplande Ses-aan-‘n-Kant-wedstryde betref, het die klub se bestuur egter laat weet dat die dag uitgestel is omdat slegs drie spanne ingeskryf het.
