teacher, said that the school was unable to accept that the young boy is no more. “We need answers to his death. We need to know who killed him and the motive behind the killing.” Bopape said the pupils could hardly focus on their school work since everyone in the village was speaking about the pupil whose private parts had been cut off.

Cllr Sarah Makhuvha of Ward 7 maintains that she had received a sketchy report about the boy’s death from the ward committee and the deceased’s family. “There are community members who are maintaining that the man whose house was burnt had fetched Nkhumeleni from an evening church service and the boy never returned,” Makhuvha said. “To lose a child under such horrific circumstances is really painful.” Makhuvha, the school and affected community members continue to hold meetings at the deceased’s house, as a way of

trying to comfort the family of the deceased.

The police’s provincial spokesperson, Brig Hangwani Mulaudzi, said the police had opened a case of murder. “No arrests have been made thus far, but our investigations are ongoing,” said Mulaudzi. “We are also waiting for the doctors to perform a post-mortem.”

Mulaudzi added that the police had opened an arson case after a house of a man was set alight.

Chief Vho-Thanyani Masia called for calm in the village and requested the community members who might have information regarding the boy’s killing to supply it to the police. When Limpopo Mirror visited the village on Monday evening, there was a large number of community members scattered about the suspect’s yard with the intention of setting the remaining rooms alight.

The Vuwani police kept an eye on the situation from a short distance.

Community leaders continue to visit the Mukhadi household to console them. In the picture are (from left to right) Ms Selina Mukhadi (the deceased´s aunt), Bernard Bopape, Frank Mukhadi, Cllr Sarah Makhuvha, Bongani Hlongwane (community development worker), Ernest Babuza and Simon Mukhadi.

2 26 April 2013 Opinion

Facebook followers discuss student fraud More than 50 students at the University of Venda were left in the cold after it was discovered that they had used fraudulent matric certificates to gain admission to the university and to access study loans at the university. Do you think fraudulent students that had already finished their degrees, should be pursued? We asked our Facebook followers to post their thoughts on the matter!

They shouldn’t be pursued because they proved that they didn’t need a matric in order to reach their dreams. That’s why they completed their degrees - Thivhilaeli Thivhi It’s a lesson Univen should learn that they must update their system and move away from a manual system. If they knew how to use computers this wouldn’t have happened, so I don’t blame the poor students. In life it’s all about risks, so they took it, so what? If they cancel their degrees, will the university pay back the NSFAS money? People must think before vomiting here.- Zanele Madonsela Definitely they should be pursued. Some of our friends didn’t gain access to study @ university level. - Nndwammbi Junior Khuthadzo How many students pass their degrees through cheating (copying in exams, tests and using other people’s assignments as theirs? Its part of life. If they have escape without being noticed, they are just doing the same thing as the majority (almost all) of students do at university to pass their degrees. If we are going to check if everyone didn’t

cheat to get their degrees, then we will have no graduates at all. - Raymond Gondo They should be pursued. Imagine my relative struggled to gain admission to the university and did not get the admission, but someone who didn’t bother to spend those sleepless night working for matric, just go and obtain scarce skills and the vice chancellors award! Geez - Justice Davhana Yes, they should be pursued, because I went to Univen this year and I didn’t gain admission, because of my results. They should be punished!

- Ndivhuho Mafhali Ludere Let them have second chance, we all make mistakes. They did it because they wanted a better education and life. - Prudence Phumudzo Luvhimbi You say that it is just a mistake and they should get another chance. No, they wont hesitate to do it again!!! It’s a life lesson. !!! In the workplace we don’t want corrupt people, especially in a developing country that already has a corrupt majority. Do you want Univen to look like a corrupt university?

- Azwinndini Mawela My dad once said to me: “Stealing without being caught is a skill, not a crime”. So for me those who “got away with murder” should be left to shine.

- Boikhutso Thulare No mercy for fraudsters. Some of us are in the college simply because of some people who has contacts in high positions at the university. They denied us access whereas we met the requirements, but they want us to bribe them to gain access. NO MERCY, they should be PUNISHED. You reap what you sow - Honey Lee They should be pursued. People think just because they cheat and get away with it, they are smart like hell. Those caught should pay. I don’t have mercy for cheaters. They all think they are smart, but all they are, are paloekas. - Sol Shikolokolo Even the degrees might be fake. Their degrees must be cancelled with immediate effect and they must be arrested for fraud, that’s wrong - Nthangeni Rotshidzwa Owen

“There is simply no excuse for rape”

L

et me speak my mind on this issue that has dominated our news and our conversations. I cannot turn a blind eye when the nation is being blinded by such tragedies that are purely evil.

Rape is evil; it is murder to the soul; theft to one’s body and an invasion of one’s mental state that will probably haunt them for a lifetime.

You see, the problem is that you kill someone’s self-esteem; you kill their will for life; you kill their sense of being. Thereafter, we expect them to walk with this grave, expect them to be silent and smile. Rape is invading one’s mental state, to suddenly think that a beautiful thing is the most evil thing on earth.

They might never defeat the fear instilled and even if they do, they will have to fight wars that you started and left running.

There is no excuse, yes! None at all for your

“I’m in favour of changes, but ...”

Last year an article was published with the heading “Court will have to decide on name change battle”. It concerned the objection of the Chairperson’s Association to the name Louis Trichardt being changed to Makhado. The article elicited some reaction from online readers:

I

say there is no logic in this whole futile exercise.

The Hlanganani group are being used and the sooner they see that the better for them. Which name do the Shangaan people want? Do they want Louis Trichardt? If “yes”, are they in any way culturally connected with the name Louis Trichardt?

Or do they want Hlanganani? If “yes” do they, in their wildest dreams, think the Venda speaking people who make up more than 80% of the greater Makhado area will allow that to happen? The Shangaans are fighting a losing battle because even their Afrikaner “friends” will not want Makhado to be called “Hlanganani”. The sooner people realise that this renaming thing is a numbers game the better.

Vendas will get their way simply because they are an unassailable majority in the area. Besides, the name Makhado makes both historical and political sense and the sooner people realize that the better.

- Timmy Khethani r Khethani, South Africa belongs to all of us, black or white. Let us respect one another and avoid rubbishing each other. VhaVenda and Vatsonga (wrongly called Shangaan) have lived peacefully side by side for so long and continue to do so up until today. So Makhado or Louis Trichardt, whatever you call it, is a town for VhaVenda,

selfish behaviour.

There is nothing strong about making someone feel weak. There is nothing manly in displaying your power on a helpless child, women or granny. It is weak; not only weak, it is disgusting.

It is inhumane and a reflection of your decaying soul, that’s if you still have one. It is a heartless act and I refuse to accept any excuses such as “I was drunk”, “her skirt was too short” or “she was seductive”.

A two-year-old did not grab you by your zip and forced you in, neither did the girl take off your pants and put your d*** under her short skirt. If you are men, you would not blab any excuse. There is no excuse at all, none whatsoever, for you raping a child, a woman or a granny.

Vatsonga, Bapedi, Indians and the White African.

Let us make this beautiful town a home for all, irrespective of colour or ethnicity.

I am a Tsonga speaker and support the renaming of Louis Trichardt to Makhado, but with the following caution; name changes should not divide people along racial or tribal lines, they must be neutral, they must make people come together, which we say “Hlanganani” in Tsonga.

The name change process is not restricted to the Vhembe district, but it is going on all over our country. In Tzaneen, for example, a name change was proposed by the Limpopo Geographical Names Committee (LGNC). Both Vatsonga and Bapedi opposed it on the ground that the name Tzaneen has united them under a new democratic dispensation. After consulting, LGNC found that both Vatsonga, Bapedi and the White Africans regard the name Tzaneen “a symbol of unity” as it embraces connotations of diversity and neutrality in its pronunciation, structure and nature. This means that it does not divide various communities with different cultural and linguistic background in terms of tribalising the name. The LGNC decided that it will not change the name Tzaneen.

In the future, name changes should be about uniting diverse communities rather than dividing them. Mr Khethani, there is only one majority in South Africa, Black Africans ... your definition of majority (80% Venda) is very dangerous because its purpose is ... the ‘Balkanization’ of South Africa.

Shock as SABC boss passes away The community of Limpopo is mourning the sudden death of Limpopo SABC general manager Mr Victor “Dynaross” Ravhuanzwo (55). He passed away at the MediClinic last Wednesday morning after a short illness.

Ravhuanzwo was said to have collapsed in his home on Sunday two weeks ago and was transferred to Polokwane.

He worked for the South African Broadcasting Corporation for 17 years.

The spokesperson of SABC, Mr Kaizer Kganyago, was at a loss for words. “This is a great loss not only for the SABC and the family, but for the whole community. To lose such an iconic leader at this time is painful. We are just praying that God gives us all comfort in this time of grief,” he said.

Kganyago described Ra­

Mr Victor Ravhuanzwo.

vhuanzwo as someone who was always there for everybody when they needed him. He said that he made sure that they got the best and encouraged them to set themselves goals in life. “He has left a void that cannot be filled and I will respect and miss him always,” said Kganyago.

He said that Ravhuanzwo was dedicated to his work and that the SABC entrusted him with a huge responsibility of heading the Limpopo Province.

He carried out his duties with excellence and devoted his life to serving the organization diligently as was expected of him. His paramount concern was to fulfil the mandate of the SABC of building an informed society and broadcast for total citizen empowerment.

A friend, Mr Ronald Makhadi, said they had worked closely together after the formation of the Venda Football Association, (Vefa). Ravhuanzwo worked as general manager of the association and was later appointed deputy chairperson and chairperson. He later became the deputy chairperson of Safa Great North East Province.

According to him, Victor put the Vhembe region on the map through his managing skills. He described Victor as a matchless hard worker, whose works speak for themselves.

Family spokesperson Mr Shumani Ravhuanzwo said the family was saddened by

the passing away of Victor.

“He was seen as a light to the family and the nation at large.

We are truly devastated, as we have lost a pillar of the family.

Everyone looked up to him for advice,” he said.

He said that they were greatly humbled by the love and support shown by the people of Limpopo. He said they would not have survived without the help they received from the community. He further said that they were happy as a family that Ravhuanzwo was someone who lived life to the fullest.

His career history began when he taught at Thengwe High. He left teaching and joined the railways. After two years, he joined PG Glass. He then joined Radio Thohoyandou as marketing manager before appointed by the SABC. He held several positions in the corporation and was appointed marketing manager for the Limpopo radio stations in 1996. In 1997, he became sales manager and in 2000 he was promoted to station manager of Phala-Phala FM. In 2006 he was appointed as provincial general manager of SABC Limpopo.

The funeral service will start at 07:00 at the Ravhuanzwos’ house in Makhado (Louis Trichardt) before proceeding to Lukau for the burial.

Mr Ravhuanzwo is survived by his wife, Grace.

Flood relief Unemployed Gladys Netshilata of Mbilwi outside Thohoyandou, who recently lost her mud hut due to heavy floods in the Thulamela area, could not believe her eyes when Lady Luck came smiling her way.

Netshilata (28) was one of the beneficiaries of food parcels donated by the Seventh Day Adventist Church through its social responsibility wing, Adventist Development and Relief Agency (ADRA).

The handing over of 850 food parcels by ADRA officials Justice Mongwe, president of the Seventh Day Adventist Church, and Jumara Netshifulani, the Adventist Development and Relief Agency country director, took place during the Vhembe District Municipality’s disaster overview and acknowledgement and assistance meeting for different stakeholders. The meeting took place a fortnight ago at the executive mayor’s boardroom.

Receiving the groceries that would pull her through the month, the ecstatic Gladys said the donation was one of the best things to have happened to her this year. The mother of two said it had been one tragedy after the other for her.

“My hut was accidentally burnt down last year.

When I was still trying to pick up the pieces, rain flattened my mud hut. I was left with nowhere to stay and I had to use a makeshift shack. I do not have money to rebuild my hut as I am unemployed,” she said.

Representing the ADRA, Jumara Netshifulani said their organisation had been involved in many community initiatives where they assisted in local economic development, food security, education and primary health care, among others.

The Venda Muslim Jamaat, an organization comprised of the local Indian business community, is still assessing the damage caused at schools and has pledged to help rebuild the damaged schools.

Rastaman arrested for dagga

The police in Malamulele are still in a joyous mood, following the arrest of a well-known Rastafarian, who is alleged to have planted many dagga plants in his yard.

Thompson Ngobeni (56), from the nearby Altein village outside Malamulele, was allegedly found with dagga that weighed a hefty 613,9kg, with a street value of about R150 000. The arrest took place on Monday morning.

Malamulele police spokesperson WO Alson Mapindani said the arrest

came as a result of a tip-off from members of the community, who told police of the presence of dagga in the village. “We found 48 big dagga plants, with some of the dagga already being dried on a mat."

Ngobeni appeared in court Tuesday and the case was postponed to 29 April, pending further investigations. He was not asked to plead and he remains in custody after he was denied bail.

Commuters stranded due to striking bus drivers Thousands of commuters around the Makhado area were left stranded since last Friday as bus drivers went on strike due to a national wage dispute.

The South African Transport and Allied Workers' Union (Satawu) announced a nationwide strike last week as a result of a deadlock in wage negotiations. Workers were demanding an 18% increase in wages, while employers were offering 6.5%.

The bus strike came as a blow to thousands of cash-strapped local consumers. Many of them

had already paid for their monthly bus tickets and battled to try and find extra money to pay for taxis.

Maitele Madzunga is one of the stranded commuters who now have to queue for taxis. "We are always forced to queue for an hour before a taxi arrives to pick us up at the taxi rank. We have tried to talk to taxi owners about our frustrations, but nothing is happening." Maitele complained that he could not go to work as he did not have money to pay for a connecting trip.

“I am not opposed to the strike, but I am worried about the way it took place. They should have told us that they will not transport us, so that we could have arranged alternative transport. Now we do not have money and we are marked as being absent from work, but we are sympathetic to the cause of the drivers,” he said.

Satawu's provincial coordinator, Sam Lefuwa, said that they would only go back to work after an agreement was reached with the workers.

In reaction to the no-work-no-pay policy, Lefuwa said the language Limpopo SATAWU chairperson Mr Sam used to explain the Labour RelaLefuwa says workers have the right to go tions Act was very clear, that as on strike if they are not satisfied. (Photo: long as they had the right to strike, it remained at the discretion of the Tshifhiwa Mukwevho)

employer to implement the no-workno-pay rule.

He accused the bus owners of using the rule to scare off the striking drivers. "We view it as a bold statement to scare our members, but we are determined to suffer until our demands are met," he said.

One of the bus drivers, Mr Dickson Mashele, said they worked under trying conditions and they were not well compensated, which left them and their families to suffer. “We have voiced our challenges in a peaceful and honourable way, but it fell on deaf ears as employers do not want to listen to us.

We have decided that enough is enough and we will not go back to work if they do not reply to our demands,” he said.

The chairperson of Vhembe Bus Operators, Mr Livhuwani Madzuse, said that a no-work-no-pay policy was in place. "We are not going to pay them for the times they were not in the workplace."

Madzuse said that commuters who had bought tickets would receive a discount when they bought tickets for the next month. He said that commuters had to produce the previous month's ticket when they went to buy a new ticket.

Police smash syndicate The Zimbabwean police at Beit Bridge have uncovered a suspected cigarette-smuggling syndicate and recovered about 700 boxes of cigarettes with a street value of R740 000 hidden at two homesteads in Tshapfutshe village outside the border town.

Following a tip-off, thepolice also arrested two suspects on Friday in connection with the case.

Police spokesperson Asst Insp Christopher Ngwenya said investigations were still underway.

He said it was suspected that the cigarettes were intended for smuggling into South Africa through illegal crossing points.

“The first consignment was recovered when police raided a homestead belonging to one of the suspects, Langton Ribombo of Chicago village.

Upon arrival, police found no one at the homestead, but they saw the boxes of cigarettes through the window."

He said the police teamed up with

officers from the Zimbabwe Revenue Authority (ZIMRA) and returned to Tshapfutshe the following day. They received more information about a homestead belonging to another suspect, Edzisani Muleya, and recovered more than 400 boxes of cigarettes.

“Muleya and Ribombo are in police custody assisting the police with investigations to unearth a smuggling syndicate that is suspected to be operating in that area,” said Ngwenya.

Last year in November, Muleya and Ribombo were arrested for a similar offence, following a raid at their homesteads during which 1 081 boxes of cigarettes worth R3,1 million were recovered. Ribombo was fined R20 000 or 10 months in jail, while Muleya was acquitted because of a lack of evidence linking him to the alleged offence.

Of late there has been an increase in the number of cigarette-smuggling cases occurring along the border between Zimbabwe and South Africa.

Spiritual boost for Ramabulana family Vhavenda king Toni Mphephu Ramabulana received a spiritual boost when a church conference in the Nzhelele area dedicated part of the conference to praying for him and the royal family.

The Ramabulana kingship has been going through rough times of late, with members of the family hauling each other before the courts.

The celebrations, the Shekinah Glory Bible Church's 17th annual celebration conference held at Raliphaswa a fortnight ago, saw

pastors from far afield as Zambia, Zimbabwe and throughout South Africa arriving for the big occasion.

Mphephu Ramabulana said there was no one above God. “I am just your earthly leader. I also kneel down to my Father, who is God the Almighty.

He is the one above me,” he said.

He urged the church to pray for him. “The seat I am occupying has many responsibilities. I need your prayers in order to lead the people that God ordered me to

lead,” he added.

Mayor David Mutavhatsindi of the Makhado Municipality urged all church members to support the vision of their pastor, saying it was the only way that the church would grow.

Pastor Freddy Rambasa, founder of the church, said they felt they should invite the king during their annual conference.

“We always pray for the royal family, but we felt this time around we should share fellowship with the king and also offer prayers for him,” he added.

The king (third from left) sang and danced with the congregation. With him in the photo are Pastor Freddy Rambasa (second from left) and other guests.

“Arrest the killers of little Mutshidzi” Almost a month after police promised to find the killers of little Mutshidzi Ramanyimi of Tshilungoma, no one has been arrested in connection with the case.

This has angered the community, who recently marched to the Thohoyandou police station and handed over a memorandum of their grievances to the MEC for Safety, Security and Liaison, Florence Radzilani, and Limpopo police commissioner Lt General Simon Mpembe.

The tiny girl from Tshilungoma outside Thohoyandou went missing on March 1 and her body was found seven days later. Several parts of her body were missing.

The enraged community bayed for the blood of five people in the village whom they suspected of being the muti merchants who had cut off the girl's parts for muti.

During the funeral of the slain child, Radzilani promised that no stone would be left unturned in the hunt for the sus-

Worship House to celebrate anniversary in style Worship House, the well-known awardwinning gospel ensemble from Thohoyandou, known for their best-selling albums, will celebrate their 10-year anniversary in style from tomorrow (Saturday).

They will be recording live two DVDs and CDs in two days.

Church spokesperson Pastor Shemya Makota said preparations had reached the final stages. He said the album would have 16 tracks and would be different from their previous albums. "We are maturing with time. People can expect a more improved Worship House. Throughout the years we

have gathered a lot of experience and we will leave it to our fans to be the judges,” he said.

He said people should also expect surprises. "We have big surprises in store for our fans. For the first time we will feature a granny who will perform a Venda traditional track. She is hot and will surprise many,” he said.

Makota said they were also going to feature another gospel sensation, Sfiso Ncwane, who requested to be part of the recording. "We are elated to have such a respected artist wanting to perform with us,” added Makota.

pects in the case. Seeing that no one has been arrested so far, the whole of the Tshilungoma community marched to the police station.

The march was organised by the ANC Women’s League's Mutsindo Branch. It started with a prayer service at the spot where little Mutshidzi Ramanyimi was found murdered.

The marchers, singing freedom songs, marched for nearly 10km from the spot to the Thohoyandou police station, where they handed over a memorandum of their grievances. Their list includes that the killing be investigated speedily, the urgent arrest of the suspects before a recurring of the incident, and that no bail be granted to the culprits involved in the ritual killings or any other violent crimes committed against women and children.

They also demanded that those found guilty of the murder of the little Mutshidzi be harshly sentenced.

The community also appealed for high police visibility and that parole not be considered for those culprits.

Evangelist Maria Mulaudzi, who will feature on one track, said she was very happy to have been chosen to perform.

"It is quite an honour for me. I just thank God for making it possible that we be given the chance to showcase our talents,” she added.

Worship House founder Bishop Isaac Dagada said it would be their 13th album in 10 years as they had started recording two albums a year last year.

“In these 10 years we have seen God in action as we experienced many achievements. This calls for such a celebration,” he said.

Limpopo police commissioner Simon Mpembe addresses the marchers.

Next to him are ANC Women´s League members, the mayor of Thulamela and MEC Florence Radzilani.

Recognition for top financial advisers Sanlam gave recognition to several of their that was recently held at the Ranch Hotel near advisers during their annual award function Polokwane.

Advisers from Musina who received recognition were Kobus McCabe and Freek Clifford.

McCabe was the adviser who collected the most investments for Sanlam during the past year.

Nyiko Nghatsane.

He also qualified to attend Sanlam’s local conference and is one of Sanlam Limpopo’s top 10 advisers for the Justice Mashele (left) receives his certificate from Rean van Wyk (right). year.

Gogo Selinah (66) makes a difference Gogo Selinah Mphedziseni Mulovhedzi has already paid her dues, having raised her four children by herself.

The gogo from Vondwe outside Thohoyandou says she has not done enough in life as she still sees people who are without jobs and have no means of sustaining themselves.

The industrious granny is contributing positively to the local economic development and empowerment of her community.

The 66-year-old gogo is always busy as a bee in her nursery.

She employs nine people from within the community. “I do not derive any pleasure when I see people suffering. Some are well educated, but there are no jobs for them,” she added.

“I did not go to school, but I have done my best in life to try anything that could generate an income for me.

Through the money I made, I was able to see all my children through school and I am now doing it for my community,” she said.

Mulovhedzi said the idea for a nursery came in 2007 when she started planting vegetables in her yard and

could not easily get seedlings as they were sold very far away in Tzaneen. “Sometimes, one would prepare the field and wait for up to a month without seedlings. I started planting them here and the rest is history,” she added.

She said even though she plan­ ted her seedlings per order, she always had some for the locals who came for only a few to plant in their yards.

Even though she employs nine members of the community, she said she would do more for her community if she were given

assistance by the government.

“This is my RDP, my humble contribution to my community.

My dream is to see this nursery grow and employ as many people as possible. Even if I pass on, I will be happy knowing that I have done my part,” she said.

Ms Sylvia Tshifhango, a mo­ ther of three children and one of those employed at the nursery, has good words about the gogo.

“She is like a mother to us. We are very grateful that she started a project that is now a source of our income,” she said.

Ms Selinah Mulovhedzi serves another happy customer.

Peace on the horison for Maniini village? CEO Seabi satisfied with Easter turnout Peace could be on the horizon for Maniini. The village was recently rocked by allegations of corruption and the misuse of funds, levelled against the local civic leadership and traditional leadership.

It is alleged that thousands of rands in contributions by the residents were embezzled by the civic in collusion with the local traditional leadership.

There were also divisions in the village, with some residents claiming that the civic structure was imposing itself on the residents to enrich themselves.

At the weekend, the C h i e f N t i k e d z e n i whole village came toMuraga-Mphaphuli gether and elected a addresses the resi- new civic structure. The dents during a meet- election process was ing where a new civic overseen by a delegation structure was elected. from Thovhele Gole

Mphaphuli, the senior traditional leader of the area, who could not be present.

Addressing the community, Chief Ntikedzeni Muraga -Mphaphuli urged the community to be united and to work together for the sake of peace and development in the village. "We hope most of the issues raised could be better dealt with by the people of Maniini themselves. We need peace here and we know it is possible if all concerned commit themselves," he said.

The newly elected civic chairperson, Alfred Mugwari, said he was prepared to carry the mandate entrusted to him and his committee by the community.

"We are here as instruments of development and we know that, despite the challenges we had in the village, we are ready to move on and work together for the development of our area,” he said.

The other members of the committee are Sharon Nedzamba (vice-chairperson), John Liphadzi (secretary) , Emmanuel Ndou (vice-secretary) and Maanda Nembaleni (treasurer). The additional members are Robert Ramakuela, Humbulani Mulovhedzi, Mushaisano Muvhango, Ralinala, Samson Masia and Ndateni Madoba.

The Mphaphuli royal delegation and the newly elected civic structure pose for a photo.

The CEO of the Limpopo Tourism Agency (LTA), Nocks Seabi, expressed his satisfaction on behalf of the agency, following the great turnout of tourists in the province over the Easter holidays.

Seabi said that the tourism industry in Limpopo received its fair share of the pie during the Easter Weekend, with the tourism establishments in the province recording a high occupancy rate. Day visits to recreational facilities proved to be a favourite amongst locals and visiting friends and relatives. On behalf of the agency, Seabi thanked all the people involved, including the service and hospitality sectors of Limpopo. He urged

them to continue spreading their warmth as they welcomed visitors into the province. “We are of the view that this made us good hosts and will result in repeated visits, thereby increasing the economy of the province,” he said. Spokesperson for the agency Kgatla Ntlhekeng said that there had been a decline in terms of visitors to Limpopo Wildlife Resorts (LWR). These LWR resorts include the Doorndraai Dam in Mookgophong, Dinyala in Lephalale, Nylsvley in Modimolle and Rust de Winter Dam in Rust de Winter.

Ntlhekeng said that resorts had recorded 5 538 visitors this year, compared to the 10 403 visitors last year during the same

Notice

Family help desk A maintenance and general family law help desk has been established at the Musina Magistrate's Court by ProBono.Org to promote access to justice by making pro bono lawyers available to assist people who find themselves in domestic violence situations and need to enforce their rights.

The aim is to facilitate the smooth administration of the courts and to provide individuals with free legal assistance that will enable them to obtain relief more easily. The help desk can provide general legal advice, assistance in completing necessary documents or forms, guidance regarding court procedures, referral to appropriate court officials and, where the domestic violence matter is difficult and unresolved, refer the matter to a pro bono attorney.

The help desk will be available every first Monday of the month from 08:00 to 12:00.

period. He said that this was largely due to the flood damage that the resorts had experienced this year, which led to the closure of some of the biggest “cash cows” in the province.

Seabi said that the LTA was working around the clock to ensure that these resorts were brought back to full functionality, so that visitors and tourists could enjoy their favourite holiday destinations.

He concluded by expressing his heartfelt condolences, on behalf of the agency, to the families and colleagues of the five SANDF members killed in a helicopter crash in the Kruger National Park recently. (LiN News / The Beat)

New maternity ward for Quality Care Esteemed guests, friends and family attended the official grand opening of the new maternity ward of Quality Care Private Hospital in Makhado (Louis Trichardt) on Saturday, 13 April.

Among the guest were the Limpopo MEC for Health and Social Development, Dr Norman Mabasa, who also formally opened the newly built maternity ward of the private hospital.

The Quality Care Hospital is the brainchild of Dr Patrick Tigere and his wife, Caroline. Three years ago, the couple set the ball

in motion to obtain the land and permit for their vision of an own private hospital. The building complex in Grobler Street in which the Quality Care Clinic is situated already houses the offices of Dr Tigere’s gynaecological practice, a pharmacy and a coffee shop. Over the next couple of years, the hospital will also be expanded to accommodate 86 hospital beds and a theatre. The hospital, which already functions as a sub-acute step-down facility, currently boasts 12 hospital beds in the maternity ward. This will enable

prospective mothers to make use of the facilities, whether they choose to make use of Dr Tigere, who is a qualified gynaecologist, or not. The hospital is designed this way to make it possible for patients to receive various gynaecology-related treatments from Dr Tigere and other specialists who will visit the hospital. Dr Mabasa, in his opening speech, remarked that Quality Care Private Hospital will bring specialist treatment to the more rural areas of the province and improve the quality of life of its people.

Crime

Armed criminals rob petrol station Staff at Petro Star Filling Station in Thohoyandou are still in a state of shock, following an armed robbery at the business.

The robbery took place last Wednesday at around 18:30, when four armed men stormed into the filling station shop and held the security guard up before proceeding to hold the cashiers at gunpoint.

The four masked men are said

to have taken up positions in the shop, with some ransacking the tills for cash while others stood guard.

The robbers ordered everybody to lie down before leaving the shop with an undisclosed amount of cash and a cell phone belonging to one of the staff members. A client who happened to be inside the shop during the robbery was also ordered to lie

down.

The robbers are alleged to have disappeared into the dark on foot.

One of the robbers left his mask in the garage in his haste.

No one was injured during the robbery.

Anybody with information regarding the incident can pass it on to the investigating officer, D/W/O George Mutavhatsindi at 082 702 9890.

14 26 April 2013 It was in 1993 when Livingstone set his eyes on the beautiful and “fresh” girl, Portia Dabishi, and told himself that she would be his future wife.

This was during the 20th wedding anniversary of Portia's parents, Anna and the late Johannes Dabishi, at Univen. Livingstone was a Grade 12 pupil while Portia was in Grade 11.

Ten years later, in 2003, the dream came true and the two got married.

At the weekend, the business couple celebrated their 10 years of happy marriage in style with family, friends and business associates. The well-organized function was full of elegance and splendour and will remain the talk of the town for a long time.

Guests arrived in the most expensive and latest models of vehicles. The exclusive function was held at the magnificent Porsche Villa Hotel in Muledane -Thohoyandou. The hotel is one of their long list of achievements and part of their business empire built during the past 10 years of their marriage.

The function, where no expenses were spared, was nearly marred by rain. That did not dampen the spirits of the guests, who were dressed to the nines in their expensive suits and dresses. Almost all the top dogs in business from all over the country were in attendance; leaders of religion and people from all walks of life formed part of the exclusive guest list.

There was plenty entertainment with groups from all over, including the much-loved Micasa, in the house. Home-grown, award-winning gospel sensation Lufuno Dagada entertained guests during the first session.

Well-known DJ Chigi, who is also known as Lidgantiby in media circles, had the guests eating out of his hand.

Apple Soul band from Pretoria took back the guests with local music from the past.

The first session of the function took place in two well-decorated marquee tents that have never been seen in local circles. The tents were carefully erected in the court yard of the hotel.

Amidst ululations by guests, the couple, with Livingstone dressed in an expensive cream suit and Portia in an expensive wedding gown, made a grand entry to the tent. The session was presided over by the well-known Pastor Muhali of the Higher Grace Church, where the two worship.

Muhali conducted a short sermon before praying for the couple. The couple exchanged vows and also exchanged new wedding rings. The rings were brought to the podium by the couple’s two sons, who were also dressed in cream suits, on quad bikes.

After the service, all the guests were invited to join the couple at a sumptuous dinner where all partook in the best food, which included oxtail and lamb curry. There were also more than enough drinks for all.

The second session was a celebration night.

The Porsche Villa Hall, with more than 500 chairs, was filled to capacity. The bridesmaid, best man and the couple's children entered the hall, accompanied by music.

The couple, with Livingstone wearing a shiny black suit and Portia wearing a colourful matching dress, entered the hall from two different entrances, singing Endless Love.

A short but entertaining programme followed, with pastors Mashango Mmbadi and Dr John Mphaphuli taking turns in encouraging the couple.

Midway through the programme, the well-known Johannesburg-based music group Micasa arrived to thunderous applause. They had guests standing and shouting for more throughout their performance.

The MC of the day, who was also the MC on the couple's wedding day, was the humorous Mainganye Neluvhalani, who left all in stitches because of his endless jokes.

A giant cake was cut and was shared among all the guests.

Food and drinks were being served throughout the celebration night. After the formal proceedings, there was more dinner for all the guests.

"Indeed, this ceremony will be talked about for many years to come; I have never seen something like this here locally," said Takalani Dzaga, one of the guests.

The bridesmaid and best man were well-known businessman Maud Maphiri and his wife Thsifhiwa.

Redhill and Mmilige schools strengthen partnership Mmilige Secondary School in the Kutama area recently received a visit from Redhill School in Sandton, Gauteng. The purpose of the visit was for the pupils of Redhill to perform an outreach service to the local school.

Redhill handed out 330 food parcels to all the learners of Mmilige, 330 educational wall charts, science equipment to the value of R10 000 and 330 calculators.

The project co-ordinator, Mrs Ishara Govender, said that she had experienced the heartache that came with a lack of necessities and educational material in the learning environment when she was a teacher at a rural school in KwaZulu-Natal around 2003. That experience had taught her to appreciate the good work that other people did for the next person.

“Every small contribution was noticed and appreciated by both teachers and pupils,” Govender said. “So, I could only advise this school (Mmilige) Pupil Humbulani Ramufhi (right, front) receives a food parcel from to look after the little that we have given them.

Learners must study hard in order to secure a good Michael Pitsiladi of Redhill School. future for themselves.”

She added that the visit was made possible by philanthropists who are in contact with Redhill, who either contributed money or material.

Redhill also painted the walls of the classrooms, did gardening and engaged in sporting activities with the local pupils.

Jamie-Anne Fletcher of Redhill (16) ex-

pressed her excitement after visiting a rural Limpopo school. “It was a very rewarding experience, coming to Mmilige School,” she said. “The pupils were so friendly and welcoming and very eager to help in the process of refurbishing the classrooms. We’ve come to a culture which is different to most of us and it serves as a cultural relations moment for us.”

Mmilige Secondary School’s principal, Mr Takalani Netshifhefhe, acknowledged the partnership which had been created between the two

schools.

“We thank the people of Redhill and hope to visit their school next year,” said Netshifhefhe. “We believe our partnership will also help us to improve our results, as they are a very successful school academically.”

Dakalo Budeli (15) said that the Mmilige pupils felt very blessed that the Redhill pupils had visited them and interacted with them. “We had a lot of chatting and laughter,” Dakalo smiled.

Five years in jail for culpable homicide A Waterpoort farm labourer, Livhuwani Gilbert Mabada (33), was sentenced to five years’ imprisonment in the Louis Trichardt Regional Court on a charge of culpable homicide on Tuesday.

The court imposed the sentence of five years on the accused and stated that he would only have to serve at least 10 months of his term before he could be released under correctional supervision. “If you are found on the wrong side of the law for any reason, you will have to go back to jail to do all the remaining time,” said the magistrate.

Mabada was initially on trial on a charge of murder and the charge was converted to culpable homicide when the court delivered judgement on Monday. The court heard that Mabada had stabbed a fellow farm worker, Maxwell Mathuthu, with a bottle on 2 April 2011, when both men were very drunk at the Jachtkraal farm in the Waterpoort area. The victim died in hospital a few days later.

In mitigation, the defence’s attorney, Mr Donald Tshimbiluni, said that his client had acted under the influence of alcohol.

“The court will note that when the accused was released on warning a couple of months ago, his previous employer gave him a job again,” said Tshimbiluni. “This indicates that he could lead a responsible life in the community.”

The court noted the fact that Mabada could rehabilitate after he had been in custody awaiting trial for two years, and was found not to have committed any of-

fense in prison. “We also noted your attorney’s argument that the crime was not premeditated,” said the court. “The court is surprised to see a person of your age behaving like a child.”

During trial, a medical doctor who had treated the deceased testified that Mathuthu had a stab wound on the left side of his chest, which suggested that a sharp object such as a knife was used, and not a bottle.

The accused is a resident of Madimbo village in the Niani area.

Local teachers enjoy birding expedition “I can almost touch it!” exclaimed one of the eco-schools’ teachers as they put binoculars to their eyes for the very first time to look at a bird.

Through the WESSA (Wildlife & Environment Society of South Africa) Eco-Schools Programme, four Blouberg schools attended a workshop at the Mogalakwena River Lodge, near Alldays. After the workshop session, teachers

had the opportunity to go birding next to the Mogalakwena River with the guidance of the lodge’s nature guide.

As they strolled along the river, many birds were observed and identified in the bird books carried by the teachers. They really got into it and also shared the Sepedi and Tshivenda bird names with the guide.

As they walked back to the

lodge, one teacher remarked at how relaxed she felt after this activity.

If anyone would like to donate their old binoculars still in working condition and any bird guidebooks to Eco-Schools, please contact Judy van Schalkwyk, Blouberg Node Coordinator at judy-enviroeducation@hotmail. com or post it to PO Box 522, Makhado, 0920.

The problem presents itself as empty hives, with no clear evidence of why the bees have left or died. Contributing factors, in James’s opinion, that have affected the local bee population include the recent floods in the province.

The Limpopo River, explained James, is an important natural habitat for bees throughout the year. The sudden rise in flood waters had a damaging effect on all the feral swarms below the flood-line. Populations that had already starved during the previous protracted drought resulted in weakened swarms.

This was followed by the prolonged wet conditions, which made bee populations more prone to be preyed on by their natural enemies.

Last respect for Senior Chief Netsianda Hundreds of people paid their last respects to the late Senior Chief Mafharalala Wilfred Netsianda during a special ceremony at the sports ground of Gwamasenda Primary School last Saturday.

Netsianda was the deputy chairperson of the House of Traditional Leaders in Limpopo.

Among the people who attended the event were King Toni Mphephu Ramabulana, Execu-

tive Mayor Tshitereke Matibe, Mayor David Mutavhatsindi of the Makhado Municipality and Thovhele Mmbangiseni Masia.

Both Masia and Mphephu Ramabulana warned the 44 surviving children of Netsianda to avoid positioning themselves for the vacant throne. Masia advised them to concentrate on their careers and education and avoid jostling for the throne.

Masia hailed the late Netsianda

as one of the few traditional leaders who spoke the truth without buying anybody’s favour. He said Netsianda was always complaining about other traditional leaders who were reigning in the Vhalaudzi territory, whereas they were outsiders. “As the first-born of Gwamasenga, I am saying all outsiders must leave our land and go to theirs,” said Masia.

Besides his children, Netsianda is survived by four wives.

New citrus project at Shashe scheme The Beit Bridge Rural District Council, in partnership with Cesvi, an Italian nongovernmental organisation, has planted 5 000 citrus trees at the Shashe irrigation scheme, in a move that is set to boost the economy of the border town.

The massive community project is being funded by the European Union through Cesvi to the tune of US$1 million.

Beit Bridge Rural District Council’s chief executive officer, Mr Albert Mbedzi, told Limpopo Mirror that the trees were planted last week. The first phase of the project was launched last year.

“So far, we have developed infrastructure in the form of five boreholes, a training centre and we have also installed a new transformer and a pressure booster pump. We have also erected two ultra-high centre pivots, which are used to water the trees,” he said.

A demonstration plot where 600 trees were planted as part of the local community-training project has since been set up.

Mbedzi said the community

training centre would provide farmers with key knowledge on citrus management and marketing skills. “We primarily launched the project as a way of alleviating poverty at the Maramani area and the entire rural community in the district.

We intend to plant 10 000 more trees, but since citrus tree take about five years to mature, we are also pumping water for crop farming to ensure food security since Beit Bridge is a droughtprone district,” he said.

Mbedzi said although Beit Bridge was a dry area characterised by a low rainfall pattern, commercial citrus farming had proved to be a success in the district over the years.

“Our dream is to stop the exodus of young and energetic people who continue to stream to neighbouring South Africa to look for jobs on the farms.

As part of our five-year strategic plan, we are encouraging individual households to plant citrus trees and produce their own oranges since our climatic conditions favour that,” he said.

Mbedzi said the project was the first of its kind in the SADC region. “We want to promote citrus farming in Beit Bridge.

We want to produce oranges at a large commercial scale and create more jobs for our people,” he said.

Mbedzi said they had since cleared 45 hectares of land in an area adjacent the crop site of the Shashe Irrigation Scheme, adding that they intended to clear another 60 hectares of land under the first phase.

According to a baseline survey, which was conducted by Cesvi, a total of 300 households around the Maramani area will benefit from the scheme. “We hope to finish the project in four years’ time as it takes at least five years for an orange tree to be productive and between eight and 10 years for it to be fully grown.

CESVI is in the process of training farmers, so that they are able to sustain the project after its completion,” he said.

The Shashe irrigation scheme is the largest in the district, with a total of 120 hectares of land.

“Use the Thusong Service Centres” The rural communities in Vhembe District Municipality in Limpopo have been urged to make use of the government’s one-stop centres, the Thusong Service Centres.

Several Thusong Service Centres are situated close to the rural areas.

“We want our rural communities not to travel long distances to access to government services. Vhembe’s Thusong Centres, such as Makuya, Makhuva, Mtititi, Musekwa and Madimbo, should be used by our rural communities, so that they can get government services right at their doorstep,”

said Executive Mayor Tshitereke Matibe.

He was speaking during a services awareness campaign held at Sanari village outside Mutale on Friday.

The Makuya Thusong Centre, based in Ha-Makuya village, was officially opened in 2006, and more than 24 villages were supposed to be serviced by it.

“We find out that only Sassa services were operating well in the centre and we urged the other departments to help deliver government services to our poor people. We call on the traditional councils, councillors

and government communication officers to mobilise communities to make use of the centres,” he added.

According to Matibe, during his visit to the centre, he find out that electrical appliances need to be re-wired and the building have to be refurbished.

The manager of the centre, Mr Makondelele Nemasetoni, said although officials were willing to deliver government services to the communities around, the centre needed serious attention of maintenance.

He mentioned that there had been poor workmanship during the construction phase.

More bad luck for ZPB Powerlines Zamenkomste FC paved their way up the log when they beat Zoutpansberg Powerline 1-0 in a Safa Vhembe SAB league match at Madabani on Sunday.

The score is not a true reflection of the match, as the home side missed countless opportunities. Powerline had their first taste of bad luck in the eighth minute, when Rudzani Nebulu shot into the hands of the opponents’

keeper, Kingsey Mulingwa.

The Kutama lads realized that it would be difficult to find the net if they continued volleying from behind.

They then started to cool the ball down in the middle of the park.

Lucky Funyufunyu tried his luck from 18 metres out and a defender of Powerline scored an own goal when he tried to clear

the ball away.

The second half started at a snail's pace, with both teams struggling to penetrate each other’s defence. Zamenkomste gained momentum as the game progressed. In the 64th minute, their lethal striker, Baldwin Sinugo, missed a fortune. He shot wide, with the keeper well beaten.

His message was clear: Avoid bad friends, be passionate about books and reading, and do not to be distracted by social networks and other things which could undermine and destroy one’s career.

The team from the base, under the leadership of Brigadier General Schalk van Heerden, were on a road-show campaign to promote aviation awareness in the Botlokwa community.

duct these road shows.

Lt Mohau Vundla from 85 Combat Flying School AFB Makhado shared his life story. He said it wasn’t easy during his school days but, because he was determined to achieve his goals, he had to focus on his studies and work hard to achieve his ambition to become a fighter pilot in the SAAF. Like any other applicant, he applied to join as a pilot and his dream came true when the SAAF called him for an interview. He then completed his basic military training at the SAAF Gymnasium until he was sent to AFB Langebaan to receive his training as a fighter pilot. Lt Vundla now serves as the flight

fighter pilot.

Requirements to join the SAAF fascinated the learners. Lt Emily Mabitsi told them applicants must be RSA citizens in the age group of between 18 and 22, in good health and with a Grade 12 certificate with English and having passed maths and science, with at least a D symbol on higher grade or C symbol on standard grade for those who want to pursue their careers as pilots, navigators, engineers, air traffic controllers and other technical fields. Those who are between 23 and 26 years of age, must posses a Grade 12 certificate and a diploma/N6 or a degree in order to be accepted in the SAAF.

AFB Makhado staged a successsful road show to inform schools in the Capricorn district about careers in the SA Air Force. Pictured here are members of the aviation team and grade 10,11 and 12 learners of various schools of Botlokwa.

cases that are never reported, which, says the DA, can largely be attributed to police inefficiency.

This has spurred to DA to take action in the form of the Safety Bill. According to Van der Walt, the aim of the Bill is to hold the provincial police accountable.

Among other things, the proposed Bill could see the establishment of Limpopo’s very own independent provincial police ombudsman to investigate complaints about police inefficiency. Furthermore, the Bill could give local communities the power to determine their own policing and security needs, where these are currently the responsibility of the national police commissioner. The Bill further suggests that the MEC for Safety and Security provide support, training and resources to neighbourhood watches. The Bill, if passed, will also make it mandatory for the provincial police commissioner to submit regular reports to the MEC about reported cases, investigations, convictions, lost firearms, deaths caused by police activity or any other matter that might relate to the efficiency of the police’s relationship with the community.

Mukula Young Santos and XI Experience in draw

Japhta Mulaudzi of Santos kicks the ball.

By Frank Mavhungu

Mukula Young Santos held the log leaders, Tshifudi XI Experience, to a thrilling 2-2 draw in their SAB League match at the Mukula Tshidzani-tsha-Maria grounds on Saturday.

Santos took the game to their opponents from the first whistle. Their vastly experienced midfielder, Phathutshedzo Takalani, was a marvel to watch. He distributed defence-splitting passes to the goal poachers from time to time. It was not surprising when they took the lead after just 20 minutes of play.

Jaco Ramudzuli forced his way through the defence of Experience and beat the keeper, Rotshidzwa Muleka, hands down with a volley. Santos enjoyed their lead until the proceedings for the first half came to an end.

Fhedzisani Makhuvha of Santos was booked for a late tackle on Litshani Phasani three minutes into the last half.

Thima Managa of Santos handled the ball within his own penalty area, following a scramble. Referee Olani He stated that the team had a Kwinda awarded Expebright future as most of the play- rience a penalty.

after. Nndateni Netshitadi headed home after the keeper mishandled.

Experience continued to fight and were rewarded with a goal six minutes before full time. Aluwani Nelufule’s volley hit the crossbar and bounced

across the goal line. The goal was followed by a heated argument between the players of Santos and the match officials. The players argued that the ball had not crossed the goal line, but the referee stood by his decision.

Maweja Takers aim for the NFD One of the local SAB League sides, Maweja Takers, will be campaigning in the NFD league in three years, if the words of Mr Lucky “Mchichwa” Nelukau, the team’s head coach, are anything to go by.

The club was established early this season.

After realizing that they had managed to assemble a formidable squad within a short space of time, the managing director of the team, Mr Tshipuliso Ndou, bought the SAB League franchise from Matiyani Recreation FC. Although the club is only six months old, the team is doing wonders.

The Tshakhuma-based side

is currently leading Stream D of the Vhembe SAB League.

What is unique about the team is that they are still to lose a league match after 27 outings.

They won 19 and shared the spoils eight times. They came back from a 0-1 deficit and beat Mutandani Pull Together 3-1 at the Lwamondo Baboon grounds last Sunday.

In an interview with Limpopo Mirror shortly after their win last Sunday, Nelukau indicated that they believed that they would be campaigning in the NFD in three years’ time. He attributed the team’s success to the spirit of unity among the management and the players.

Struggling Dynamos drop more points With only seven matches remaining before the league activities for the current soccer season come to an end, Dynamos will soon need a miracle to escape the relegation axe.

The Giyani outfit drew 2-2 with Witbank Spurs in their NFD league match at the Puma Rugby Stadium in Witbank last Wednesday.

Dynamos conceded an own goal in the fourth minute, while Patrick Mubayiwa scored the second goal for Spurs in the 29th minute. Ri khomeni ri nga peli retaliated in the 34th minute when Steven Matete beat the keeper

with a ground cutter, following a scramble within the box.

The score was 2-2 at half time as Michael Alson was on target three minutes before the teams adjourned forthe break.

As if that was not enough to disappoint the team’s fans, Dynamos drew 1-1 with Vasco da Gama at the Parow Park Stadium in Cape Town on Sunday. The former pride of Giyani are deep rooted at the bottom of the log, following a string of poor results.

The supporters of Polokwane City left the University of Limpopo Stadium with sore hearts after their home team lost 0-1 to

FC Cape Town on Sunday. After sharing the spoils with Dynamos last Wednesday, Witbank Spurs rectified their mistakes and beat their neighbours, Mpumalanga Black Aces, 2-0 at the Puma Rugby Stadium in Witbank on Sunday. Jomo Cosmos gave away league points to Thanda Royal Zulu, who thrashed them 2-0 at the Makhulong Stadium in Johannesburg.

African Warriors were by far too strong for United FC, whom they crushed 3-0 at the Charles Mopedi Stadium. Blackburn Rovers and Santos played to a 1-1 draw at the Mthatha Stadium.

Maximum points for Highlanders Ravele Highlanders beat Madombidzha Celtic 3-0 in a Limpopo Dairy league match at the Ravele grounds on Sunday.

Highlanders dictated terms from the start, with their midfielders distributing dangerous passes to the front runners. Edwin Mulaudzi of Celtic tried a shot, but it went over the bar.

The only living element in the Celtic side was their dribbling wizard, Mpho Ndou. He struggled, however, to find his way through the rock-solid defence of High-

landers, marshalled by Dakalo Mukhavhuli, Dakalo Sikhwari and Galitia Mbulungeni.

The home side scored their first goal in the 28th minute via Rendani Rathumbu. As part of their strategy to disorganise their opponents, Highlanders displayed their dribbling skills in the middle of the park. Talifhani Mbelengwa scored his team’s second, after he finished off a square ball from Sinthumule Thenga. Rotondwa Tshivhase scored the third goal of his team in the dying minutes.

Fixtures

Two home matches for Dynamos Although they will be playing in front of their home crowd, it remains to be seen whether Dynamos will manage to rise to the occasion and collect the maximum points in their two upcoming home fixtures.

They will host the pace setters, Thanda Royal Zulu, in their NFD league match at the Giyani Stadium on Sunday afternoon. They will also lock horns with Santos at the same venue next Wednesday, 1 May. Ri khomeni ri nga peli must win both matches or else they must forget about escaping the chop at the end of the season.

Thanda must keep a watchful eye on the Dynamos’ killer striker, Walter “West” Ramulondi, or else they will regret a great deal.

Also on Sunday afternoon, Witbank Spurs will have a date with FC AK in Witbank. AK are one of the relegation candidates and for that reason Spurs will not find an easy victory. Polokwane City will host Santos at the University of Limpopo Stadium.

Vasco da Gama will meet Sivutsa Stars in Cape Town.

In the four matches that will be played tomorrow afternoon, Jomo Cosmos will take on Mpumalanga Black Aces, African Warriors will meet Roses United, Milano United will face FC Cape Town and Blackburn Rovers and United FC will cross swords at the Mthatha Stadium.

The other matches next Wednesday are: Jomo Cosmos vs Sivutsa Stars and Witbank Spurs vs Polokwane City.

Fixtures

Nobela vs Phungo The Makhado Eltivillas grounds will be the centre of attraction tomorrow afternoon. That is where the long-awaited Safa second-division match between the Vhembe-based sides, Nobela All Stars and Phungo All Stars, will be staged.

Both Nobela and Phungo are fighting for survival. Phungo, who have been languishing at the bottom of the log since the season started seven months ago, have been collecting full points at home and away of late. They unexpectedly beat one of the hot league-title contenders, Winners Park, 2-1 last Wednesday.

Winners Park will host Basel FC at the Mahwelereng Stadium in Mokopane in the only match that will be played on Sunday. Basel must win the match in order to remain in the contest for the league championship. Giyani Hotspurs will undertake a journey to Tzaneen. They will play against Blue Rocks at the Nkowankowa Stadium. Hotspurs have reason to believe that they will collect the full points in the match as Blue Rocks are still battling to find a winning combination.

Mosesetjane All Stars will entertain Rospa United FC at the Mahwelereng Stadium in Mokopane. Ray Pillars and Baroka will meet at the Seshego Stadium. Magezi FC will play against Lephalale Young Killers at the Peter Mokaba Athletics Stadium.

Eight matches will be played next Wednesday, 1 May. The fixtures are Baobab Zero Fake vs Magezi, Lephalale Young Killers vs Ray Pillars, Baroka vs Mosesetjane All Stars, Rospa United vs Blue Rocks, Giyani Hotspurs vs Winners Park, Basel vs The Dolphins, Modimolle Aces vs Phungo All Stars and Nobela All Stars vs Mighty.

The police in Thohoyandou are appealing to the man in the photo and members of the community who know him, to contact them as they believe he would be able to help them in their investigations in a case.

Those who know his whereabouts can contact W/O Ntshavheni Ratshiedana at 082 469 1067.
