Court rejects plea for correctional supervision and sentences local resident to four years imprisonment

Jiwa gets four years

By Isabel Venter Despite his plea for correctional supervision, Makhado (Louis Trichardt) resident Yahya Shoeb Jiwa was sentenced to four years’ imprisonment last Friday.

The 45-year-old Jiwa’s trial commenced in the Louis Trichardt Regional Court last Thursday and took two days to finalise, when his advocate, Mr Marius Bouwer, called three more witnesses to testify in mitigation on his behalf.

Jiwa was arrested in February 2011, following a police trap that was set by the South African National Parks’ Environmental Crime Investigation Unit and the police’s special investigation unit, the Hawks. Jiwa subsequently pleaded guilty to the charges relating to the illegal purchasing and possession of rhino horns. During his case, more details surrounding his arrest were revealed.

According to Jiwa’s legal team, he approached a park ranger with the intention of buying two rhino horns from him. It would later be revealed that the horns were valued at roughly R10 million.

Unfortunately for Jiwa, the ranger immediately informed the police.

According to Bouwer, Jiwa had acted out of concern for his family. His seven-year-old son is suffering from a cerebral disease that has left him bed-ridden and dependent. Jiwa’s wife also needed eye surgery at the time of his arrest. Jiwa said he was planning to sell the rhino horns at a big profit to help pay for their medical expenses.

Before his arrest, said Bouwer, Jiwa was a struggling businessman who had just sold his business in Thohoyandou and was selling cellphone accessories. Since his arrest, Bouwer added, Jiwa has been bankrupted and portrayed as a criminal in the media while continuing to be the only breadwinner for his family. Despite this, Bouwer argued, Jiwa

continued to be a community builder. All this was presented as reasons why Jiwa should receive mercy from the court and not be sent to jail.

On Friday Bouwer brought an interlocking application, momentarily bringing all proceedings to a grinding halt. He requested that a part of the money that was seized by the police during Jiwa’s

arrest be paid back. This was to enable Jiwa to pay his legal bills. During this application it came to light that the police had seized R88 000, which Jiwa had paid to their agent, and a further R80 000 was discovered in his vehicle. A part, R50 000 to be exact, of the R80 000 rightfully belonged to Jiwa’s wife. He had borrowed the money from her

shortly before he went to buy the rhino horns from the police agent. She had apparently inherited or received the money from her family. Magistrate Pat Cloete rejected the interlocking application. When the State addressed the court, they asked for eight years’ imprisonment because Jiwa’s activities were far worse than those of a poacher. (Contd on P2)

2 28 June 2013 Deur Isabel Venter

Ma voor kalf afgemaai ‘n Maandoue renosterkalfie het Dinsdag verwese gestaan en treur by die karkas van sy ma en kort-kort aan haar gelek.

Die ma is vroeër in die Nwanedi Natuurreservaat, in die Tshipise-omgewing, afgemaai vir haar horings. ‘n Ondersoekspan het Dinsdag op die kalfie afgekom waar hy by sy ma gestaan het en aan droë bloed probeer ruik en lek het. (Lesers kan op www. zoutpansberger.co.za gaan kyk na ‘n video van die kalfie by sy ma).

Die bulkalfie word geskat op sowat ‘n maand oud. Sy gehuil het selfs van die mees geharde lede van die ondersoekspan byna in trane gehad. Die kalfie is kort na die gru-ontdekking na ‘n plek van veiligheid geneem waar hy versorg sal word.

Teen druktyd was die ondersoekspan nog warm op die spoor van die stropers. ‘n Nadoodse ondersoek was vir Donderdag beplan om te kyk of daar

dalk ‘n koeël in die witrenosterkoei se karkas gekry kan word om ballisties te toets.

Intussen is ‘n inwoner van Makhado (Louis Trichardt), Yahya Shoeb Jiwa (45), vier jaar direkte gevangenisstraf opgelê, nadat hy uitgevang is terwyl hy renosterhorings probeer koop het van ‘n polisie-agent (sien voorblad berig).

Tydens sy vonnisoplegging het ‘n ondersoekbeampte van die Kruger Nasionale Park (KNP) se Misdaadeenheid, mnr. Mario Scholtz, getuig dat daar tans drie renosters per dag in Suid-Afrika gedood word vir hul horings. Daar is sedert die begin van die jaar al 428 renosters in Suid-Afrika doodgeskiet en hul horings verwyder. Dit is volgens die nuutste statistieke wat die Departement van Omgewingsake op 20 Junie uitgereik het. Van hierdie getal is 45 renosters in Limpopo doodgemaak en 267 in die Kruger Nasionale Park.

Deur Isabel Venter Yahya Shoeb Jiwa (45) from Makhado (Louis Trichardt) is supported by his wife while he is being booked into prison.

By Isabel Venter

Jiwa gets four year jail sentence (Contd from P1) “He created a market for rhino horns,” said the State. “He never showed any remorse or tried to help the police in telling them whom he intended to sell the horns to and only pleaded guilty because he realised that the case against him was watertight.”

The State also argued that if the family was so desperately looking for money to cover medical expenses, they could have used their inheritance money instead of for illegal activities. “Today

the State is the voice of the African child who has the right to see a rhino,” concluded the prosecutor.

After magistrate Cloete had finished reading out the sentence, a half-stunned Jiwa had to be led to the prisoner holding cells of the magistrate’s court.

Magistrate Cloete said that supervision’s effectiveness was almost non-existent in South Africa, due to a lack of proper management. In addition to the direct imprisonment, the whole

amount seized by the police during the arrest was forfeited and to be paid to the anti-poaching team of the KNP to aid in the war against rhino poaching.

Jiwa’s legal team did not appeal the magistrate’s verdict.

Afterwards, Jiwa got agitated with his team when they tried to explain to him that it would be a fruitless effort to bring such an application. Jiwa’s wife and daughter supported him while he was being booked into prison.

Twee renosterstropers pleit skuldig Twee vermeende renosterstropers, wat in die Kruger Nasionale Park (KNP) gearresteer is, het verlede week skuldig gepleit op die klagte teen hulle.

Dumisani Baloyi (33) en Enok Mutuque (48) is op 5 Mei vanjaar in die Phafuri-gedeelte van die KNP voorgekeer toe hulle probeer vlug het van die polisie.

Tydens die twee se arrestasie is ‘n ongelisensieerde .458 jaggeweer, ammunisie, twee byle en twee renosterhorings in die beskuldigdes se besit gevind. Nie ver vanwaar die mans gearresteer is nie, het die polisie ook ‘n renosterkarkas ontdek waarvan die horings verwyder was.

Die twee mans het verlede Vry-

dag (21ste) in die Louis Trichardt Streekshof in Makhado (Louis Trichardt) verskyn op klagte wat verband hou met die onwettige jag van ‘n beskermde spesie in die KNP. Hulle het skuldig

gepleit op dié klagte.

Hulle saak is uitgestel tot 25 Julie vir vonnisoplegging.

Mutuque en Baloyi sal in aanhouding bly tot hul volgende verskyning.

Werda is Toyota’s greenest dealership Let us know about your new

Werda Toyota in Makhado (Louis Trichardt) has been named the Toyota Environmental Dealer of the Year.

This award was made to Werda Toyota over a fortnight ago for the 2012 financial year. Werda Toyota received the award after a survey was conducted of all the other dealerships in South Africa.

The award, among others, determines which dealer goes the extra mile in their environmental performances and their actual environmental practices. Something that made them stand out, said Werda service manager Mr Charl Venter, was their various recycling projects.

Werda Toyota, though not many are aware of it, is setting the trend when it comes to environmental practices. Not only is their service centre immaculately clean, they are also very conscious of the environmental legacy that they leave behind. For example, Werda Toyota uses a pollution-control product called Super Zorb in all the different facets of their service centre.

This product is used to absorb all the harmful products, like oil spills, so that these can be drained later on and sent off to be recycled at the refinery.

Werda Toyota also recycles all their service parts, such as oil and air filters. Metal and paper parts are separated and recycled accordingly.

The money that they earn from this recycling is donated to local schools. The outer part of air filters is also donated to a community group who turns them into pot plant holders and sells them for an extra income.

The dealership has also recently expanded

and is now also a 2S Hino dealer. Together with three other Toyota dealerships in South Africa, they formed part of a pilot study of Hino SA to ensure Hino services and parts are available.

In June, Werda Hino received the award for being the best overall dealer in the pilot phase of the project.

“Thank you to all our employees for their dedication, hard work and effort. Without them, we would not have received these high honours,” said owner Mr Eddie Schlesinger.

Spate of accidents on region’s roads continue Motorists’ negligence is on the increase. This is becoming more and more evident with the continued spate of vehicle accidents in and around Makhado (Louis Trichardt).

The culprits are not just the general public, however. On Saturday afternoon (22nd) a traffic officer caused quite a stir when he rear-ended his vehicle into the bakkie of Mr Riaan Volschenk.

The accident occurred on the corner of Douthwait and Rissik Street.

According to Volschenk, the officer seemed to be under the influence of alcohol. “After he had crashed into me, he jumped out his vehicle and threw a couple of empty beer bottles away,” said Volschenk on Monday. “The driver also told me that he worked at the Makhado traffic station”.

After disposing of the empty bottles, the officer then proceeded to phone a friend, who promptly came to take him away. Volschenk was informed that the driver was taken to hospital. Later, however, when one of Volschenk’s friends went with the police in search of the driver, no trace of him could be found at either the Zoutpansberg Private

Hospital or the Louis Trichardt Memorial Hospital.

Another man arrived on the accident scene and informed Volschenk, as well as the police, that he was the owner of the vehicle. This is where the story apparently ended, according to Volschenk.

“It bothers me that this whole accident is being covered up,” he had said.

At the time of going to press, the only information supplied by the Makhado police was that they were investigating a case of reckless and negligent driving against a 38-year-old driver. The driver’s name was not issued.

The police also confirmed that a case of culpable homicide was opened for investigation after a pedestrian died that same evening. According to information supplied by the police, a vehicle travelling along the N1 near Makhado Park knocked The driver of this vehicle allegedly misjudged a corner on the Vivo-road and his bakkie overturned. the pedestrian down. The man was declared dead on the scene and had yet to be identified at the time of going to press.

On Sunday, during two separate incidents, the police arrested two suspects between the ages of 29 and 39 on charges of drunken driving.

On Monday afternoon, two minor acci­ dents occurred. In the first accident, a bakkie over­turned on the Vivo road just past Ottos Hoogte. According to information available, the driver misjudged the turn and lost control over his vehicle.

During rush hour later that afternoon, a sedan and truck collided with With this vehicle, a traffic officer rear-ended the bakkie of Mr Riaan each other at the Krogh Volschenk on Saturday afternoon.

A burnt-out shell of one of the shops that were destroyed during the fire.

The man who blew the whistle, security guard David Mphephu, explains how he spotted the fire.

Fire devastates complex A mysterious fire gutted a shopping complex in Thohoyandou, causing millions of rand in damages.

The fire, which completely destroyed five shops and their contents in a complex next to the main road, is said to have started around 19:00 on Saturday. The cause of the fire is still a mystery.

Billowing smoke and consuming flames could be seen kilometres away from Thohoyandou. News of the fire spread like the fire itself as those at the scene informed friends through the social networks.

Within a short time, the whole complex was swarming with onlookers, while the fire department from the Vhembe District municipality battled to control the fire. At some of the shops they had to break down the doors as the owners were not present.

During the commotion, thugs who took advantage of the situation had a field day, with some taking whatever they could lay their hands on from the shops. It was only the arrival of the police that saved the day and stopped the looters, who were struggling to steal refrigerators, microwave ovens

and other appliances from the scene.

Eyewitness David Mphephu, a security guard who works at the adjacent building, said he smelt something and saw thick smoke coming from a spares shop in the complex. “I was doing my regular rounds around the building where I work when I saw this black smoke coming out of the shop. From where I was, I could see that the shop was on fire, and I immediately raised the alarm and the police and the fire department arrived,” he said.

This is not the first devastating fire in Thohoyandou in recent years. In 2006, Shoprite suffered a severe blow when one of its branches in Thohoyandou was completely razed by a raging fire, causing millions of rand in damage. In 2008, another major fire completely gutted the Nando’s outlet in Thohoyandou. A wholesale and warehouse were also damaged extensively during a fire in town, where millions of rands in stock was lost a few years ago.

The spokesperson of the Thohoyandou police, Maj Mashudu Malelo, confirmed that they are investigating a case of arson.

New commander wants to clean house The Makhado SAPS welcomed Brig Alex Seopa into their corps as the new cluster commander.

Brig Seopa met with various media institutions in Makhado (Louis Trichardt) this Tuesday.

During the meeting, he gave a slight glimpse of all his plans to curb crime in the cluster. Some of the stations that fall under the Makhado cluster include, among others, Waterval, Bandelierkop, Tshitale and Levubu.

Seopa joined the police force in 1979 and served at different stations as station or cluster commander. In 1991, he became the first black station commander of the Polokwane SAPS. He was also the station commander of Gilead, Motetema and Sekhukhune and the deputy area commissioner of the Capricorn district.

Seopa, who reported for duty a week ago, has already started

strategizing. He also said that the Makhado police seemed to be working hard, but that there was room for improvement.

“Lazy or corrupt policemen will be dealt with internally,” he said. Seopa further added that he had an open-door policy when it came to complaints, and through this he wanted to establish and maintain a lasting relationship with the community that he served. “By cleaning house, we will gain the community’s trust and so change the picture.”

“Crime cannot be dealt with in isolation” – is another motto of Seopa’s. Some future plans include the incorporation of various community anti-crime forums, such as the pastors’ forum and the Soutpansberg Town Watch, as well as the establishment of neighbourhood watch committees and a “tekkie” squad.

This, says Seopa, will go

a long way in curbing crimes such as housebreaking, domestic violence and drug-related crimes. Furthermore, Seopa acknowledged the alarming increase in other violent crimes such as rape in the area, and gave his assurance that these would be reduced. “We are constantly working on strategies to address the crimes in the area,” said Seopa.

Charity

Mandela Day project The Zoutpansberg Private Hos­pital in Makhado (Louis Tri­chardt) has embarked on an ambitious project to celebrate Mandela Day on 18 July this year.

They plan to provide 10 free ope­rations to 10 eye patients in need of urgent eye surgery. Eight of the 10 patients, all from different racial and cultural backgrounds, have already been identified.

These operations will be performed free of charge by two eye surgeons, while the services of the anaesthetist are also free. The hospital itself will supply the theatre and theatre personnel at no cost.

A major stumbling block at this stage, however, is the cost of the theatre packs needed for the operations. Due to the specialized nature of these packs, which include, among others, the eye lenses, surgical tools and consumables needed for the operations, it is unlikely that the hospital will get these packs sponsored. The packs cost R10000 each on average.

With regard to their Mandela Day project, 10 packs need to be purchased beforehand at a cost of

R100 000. This is where residents and businesses can make a difference in the spirit of Mandela Day. Persons whishing to contribute financially to the project do not necessarily have to donate the whole of R10 000. “ You can donate any amount. We’ll add all the donations and purchase the packs from the total amount,” says Ms Anneke Stroebel of the Zoutpansberg Private Hospital. She adds that the public is also welcome to support the project by sponsoring their services, such as helping out in providing transport for the patients to and from the hospital. A hospitality tent is also envisaged where family members can wait, and an hotel has already indicated that it will be providing some free snacks for both the patients and their family.

“We would really appreciate your support of this project,” says Stroebel.

For more information, phone Stroebel at Tel 015 516 0720 extension 6 or 083 326 6073.

Die idee, het hulle gesê, het ontstaan in hulle Bybel selgroep. “Ons doen dit nie vir eer of aansien nie, maar vir Ons Hemelse Vader,” het die organiseerders gesê.

By Linda van der Westhuizen Relentlessly he fends for himself. He has his wheelchair, his blanket and his will to live. Readers alerted the Zoutpansberger to the plight of a man literally living on the narrow island between the two lanes of a street in Makhado (Louis Trichardt).

Relent is fending for himself relentlessly

The “island man” was seen sleeping on top of his worn-out blanket and covered by a new blue blanket. There are still good Samaritans! The town, however, needs a more permanent solution to the problem of homeless, disabled adults.

Relentlessly he fends for himself, with only a wheelchair, his blanket and a will to live.

Readers alerted the Zoutpansberger to the plight of a man literally living on the narrow island between the two lanes of Hospital Street in Makhado (Louis Trichardt).

Mr Relent Ndlovu, around 40 years of age, does not have the use of his legs. They have been burnt at “dustbins”, which seems to indicate the dumping site outside of Makhado (Louis Trichardt). Relent has strong arms and he propels his wheelchair up the hill to his “home” of the past two to three months, almost in front of the Louis Trichardt Memorial Hospital.

With patience, the Sotho-speaking Relent politely answers the barrage of questions, as much as his Afrikaans and English allow him. On his lap is his bundle of wood, his warmth for the evenings.

From his answers a probable picture of his life slowly emerges.

In the morning when the sun awakens him, Relent gets onto his wheelchair and takes on the “far” road to the dumping site, in search of food. He is also seen at the taxi ranks. Only when it’s dark does he return from his “day’s work” and wraps himself in his blanket. Later, he is seen sleeping on top of his worn-out blanket with the South African flag on it, covered by a new blue blanket. A grey blanket is pitched on a tree branch and blue slippers lie on the ground, possibly donated by a kind Samaritan.

He could be around 40 years of age, though he no longer has an ID document, which he supposes could be with his long-lost relatives in Pietermaritzburg ... Relent indicates that he was born in Mudimeli in Nzhelele. There were times that he

lived in the hospital, perhaps coinciding with the time he burnt his legs. Last year, his hands needed treatment and he was admitted. Subsequent to a conflict situation he was, however, asked to leave the hospital premises. He apparently also stayed opposite Safari Motors in the new extension, but due to the danger of crime there he chose a more “secure” spot. He washes in puddles of water near Bridge Auto, although that seems to happen more when the weather is warm. He uses the bush when he needs a toilet.

Relent realizes that he cannot inhabit his “secure” spot forever and is willing to go if he can find a place of shelter. The challenge in town is that, although attention is being given in Tshikota to a shelter for people under 18, there is no shelter for disabled or even for able-bodied homeless adults.

“In my opinion it is very shameful. When it is raining, it is too cold. His relatives are not near,” said Mr Ruben Masindi, a nearby security guard.

“I hope his relatives hear of this article and maybe come to fetch him,” said another guard.

“I would be horrified if I drove past one morning, only to find a body frozen to death. It is not right that someone should live on an island in the street,” said Ms Pat Menne, who uses the road frequently.

Ms Diane Bannatyne, who often does charity work through different organisations, referred to another homeless wheelchair owner who is known for “reckless” driving. “Relent should not be confused with him. There is definitely more than one in town. It breaks my heart that there is no shelter for these people,” Bannatyne said.

Money to be made at Makhado, says CoAL Australian mining company Coal of Africa Limited (CoAL) has indicated that there is money to be made with reference to their Makhado project.

CoAL published the results of Makhado’s feasibility study last Wednesday (19th). According

Liezl Craig, a former student of Louis Trichardt High School, obtained a Master’s degree of philosophy in integrated water management from the South African Campus of the Monash University in Melbourne, Australia. The graduation ceremony took place at Monash SA in Roodepoort in February. Liezl received a bursary from the International Water Centre in Australia for her Master’s degree.

For her Bachelor’s degree, Liezl studied BSc landscape architecture at the University of Pretoria. She is currently lecturing in environmental science at UNISA. Photo supplied.

to the company, the mine will yield “robust economic returns” and, in turn, provide a platform to turn CoAL into a global coking and thermal-coal producer.

But could it be a case of CoAL’s counting their chickens before they’ve hatched?

In the very same report, the mining company admits that they are still waiting for their mining right and water-use licence from the Department of Mineral Resources and Water Affairs respectively.

If CoAL had their way, the planned open-cast Makhado mine would produce 2.3 million metric tonnes of coking coal per year and 3.2 million tonnes of thermal coal, from the end of 2016.

The possibility exists that the mine could later be expanded into an underground mine. CoAL has already started to look for the R4 billion that they will need to build Makhado, which is expected to have a 16-year life span. In anticipation of their mining operations, CoAL has also already designed a processing plant to handle all the coal that will be mined.

CoAL chairman David Brown expressed his delight with the outcome of the study. “This high-quality hard coking coal project will not only deliver robust economic returns but also contribute meaningfully to the economic development of the Limpopo Province in South Africa,” said Brown, adding that the “Makhado project represents the future of the company and is the first step in the development of a major 8 billion-tonne resource across our Soutpansberg coal field”.

Building around their vision, CoAL said that they intended to use borehole water for the construction phase of the mine. This phase will be supplemented by an additional 4.6 million litres of water per day from the Nzhelele Dam. This is, however, subject to their receiving their water-use licence.

CoAL had already, in December of last year, signed an agreement with a collection of farmers to buy the excess of their water-use rights that they have from the Nzhelele Dam.

Na aanleiding van verlede week se voorbladberig Weekend Mayhem – Five die in ten crashes het die Pyper-gesin gereageer op die inligting wat die Makhado SAPS verskaf het oor ‘n ongeluk wat voor hul huis plaasgevind het. Volgens mnr. Anton Pyper is ‘n vrou dood nadat sy met haar bakkie deur sy heiningmuur gebars het op Sondag, 16 Junie. “Dit was nie ‘n voetganger, soos berig nie,” het Pyper gesê. Volgens Pyper was daar vyf mense, insluitende die vroulike bestuurder, in die bakkie gewees ten tye van die ongeluk. Die oorlewende passasiers het hom vertel dat hulle van die vrou se seun se partytjie af gekom het en dat hulle blykbaar gedrink het. Plaaslike polisiewoordvoerder kapt. Maano Sadike het vandeesweek gesê dat die bestuurder van die bakkie beheer verloor het en deur die Pypers se heining gebars het. “Ons kan in dié stadium nie bevestig of daar drank betrokke was by die voorval nie,” het Sadike gesê. Hy het bygevoeg dat daar ‘n saak van strafbare manslag ondersoek word. Foto verskaf.

Eienaar van medaljes in veld gesoek Mnr. Hennie Coetzee van Makhado (Louis Trichardt) het Dinsdagaand afgekom op goedere wat hy graag aan die eienaar wil terugbesorg.

Volgens Hennie het hy in die veld naby die gholfbaan gaan stap met sy honde, toe hy skielik op ‘n

hoop goed in die veld afkom. Alhoewel meeste van die goed van min of geen waarde is nie, was daar ook drie medaljes, moontlik van ‘n skoolkind. Hennie meen dit kan moontlik goed wees wat tydens ‘n inbraak gesteel is. Hy voel egter dat hy ten minste moet

probeer om die eienaar van die medaljes op te spoor. “Dalk is daar êrens ‘n kind wat baie hartseer is oor die medaljes,” sê Hennie.

Indien iemand weet aan wie die medaljes moontlik behoort kan hulle vir Hennie skakel by tel.

Refugees Day celebrated

“South Africa is seen by many, particularly by those who are less fortunate and who have been forced to flee their countries of origin, as a shining beacon of hope.”

These were the words of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, Mr Tibias Hlambelo, during a Refugees Day celebration, organised by the Jesuit Refugee Service at Makhado (Louis Trichardt) last Saturday.

“We have embarked on a programme of informing SAPS officials on issues of inter-country relations, particularly where the rights and human dignity of refugees and asylum seekers are concerned,” said Hlambelo. He added that they had started in Musina, “where crimes against refugees are rife”.

He mentioned that if the members of the SAPS understood their duties, there would be no unfair

arrests and abuse of refugees in the area.

Jesuit Refugee Service project manager Ms Bertha Chiguvare said that more than 45 million people around the world were forced to flee their homes, due to war or persecution. “Let’s continue to support our brothers and sisters from other parts of the world in upholding the spirit of ubuntu, mutual respect and peaceful coexistence in our communities.” She said people needed to pray and fast to avoid bitterness and confusion and appealed to the youth not to allow themselves to be used to intimidate and attack refugees violently.

As part of their Change-A-Life project, young leaders of Champions Combined Academy of Makhado (Louis Trichardt) brought blankets for the children of the Tonda Lushaka drop-in centre in Magau on 12 June. Pictured is a group of them with their blankets. Photo supplied.

By Linda van der Westhuizen

Children help change lives Young leaders of Champions Combined Academy outside Makhado (Louis Trichardt) decided to make a difference and change the lives of the less privileged.

The Change-A-Life project was born at the beginning of this year and action was taken. The project is in line with Champions’ mission of developing every student into a “visionary leader that will impact and change the world to the glory of God.” “We identified the Tonda Lushaka drop-in centre in Magau near Madombidzha. We had several outreaches bringing blankets, food and clothes, after which the children shared the Gospel.

The teachers go with in a supervisory role, but the initiative is the children’s,” said the principal of Champions Combined Academy, Ms Sonja Prinsloo.

One such outreach occurred on 12 June when the children had a fundraiser and bought a blanket for each child at the drop-in centre. They had bought 170 blankets, only to find that there were 190 children. When they returned on a later date with more blankets, the number had increased again!

“The need is so enormous,” said Prinsloo. She explained that a drop-in centre is a non-profit organization that accommodates vulnerable children, children at risk and orphans, for the afternoon, providing them with a meal and a safe place to do their

homework. The ages of the children range from very young (about four) to 17/18.

At the beginning of the project, the children held fundraisers and bought non-perishable food to deliver. Later, they came across the idea of delivering the food a few days before their visit and requesting that the food be prepared on the day of the visit. Their express purpose with the blankets was that every child should have something warm before the winter school holidays. Even children who are not reflected in the books of the school received blankets.

“The joy over a blanket was touching. There are so many neglected children and one has to be very sensitive. There are so many children in the area whose most basic needs are probably not even met. The work that Tonda Lushaka does is phenomenal,” said Pastor Francois Strydom, a board member of Champions Combined Academy. The academy falls under the spiritual auspices of Shammah Ministries, where Pastor Strydom is the senior pastor.

The Change-A-Life project further entails that each leader from Grade 7 to Grade 9 of Champions will “adopt” a friend at Tonda Lushaka and take an interest in the friend’s life and remember the friend’s birthday.

Skade van duisende rand word jaarliks veroorsaak deur die voortgesette, onbeheerde vloedgolf van onwettige aborsie plakkate wat oral teen oppervlaktes in dorpe in Limpopo opgeplak word. In die foto is Andries Msimango besig om van die ongewenste plakkate in Makhado (Louis Trichardt) te verwyder. Die omvang van die besoedeling teen die lamppaal, wat deur die herhaalde opplak van hierdie lewensbedreigende plakkate veroorsaak word, is duidelik sigbaar. Op plekke skep die roes wat deur die herhaaldelike gomplakkery veroorsaak word ´n gevaar, deurdat verkeerstekens deur die wind afgewaai kan word. Verskeie van die plakkaatplakkers is onlangs deur lede van die Soutpansberg Dorpswag aangekeer en aan die polisie oorhandig.

Landbounuus

Probleme kry aandag Die Soutpansberg Distrikslandbou-unie gee tans aandag aan die probleem van boere in die Vivo-omgewing wat munisipale rekenings vanaf die Makhado Munisipaliteit ontvang, terwyl hulle in ‘n ander munisipale gebied val.

Die rekenings is in Januarie vanjaar uitgestuur ten opsigte van die betaling van grondbelas­ting.

Volgens mnr. Doors le Roux, voorsitter van die Soutpansberg Distrikslandbou-unie (SDLU), blyk dit dat die probleem toegeskryf kan word aan ‘n waardasierol wat nog nie opgedateer is nie.

Mev. Erika Helm, sekretaresse van die Bo-Brakrivier Boerevereniging, het bevestig dat die boere wat rekenings ontvang het se plase in die gebied val waarvan die munisipale grense in 2007/8 geskuif is en dat hulle sedertdien in die

Blouberg munisipale gebied val.

“Dit wil voorkom of Makhado Munisipali­ teit met die verskuif van die grense nie die waardasierol opgedateer het nie en boere buite die Makhado Munisipale gebied ontvang nog rekeninge vanaf Makhado.

Die aangeleentheid is na die Afbakeningsraad verwys en dit is uitgewys dat hierdie plase wel nie binne die Makhado Munisipale gebied val nie,” het Le Roux gesê. Hy het bygevoeg dat die Boerevereniging die Afbakeningsraad se inligting aan die Makhado Munisipaliteit deurgegee het, met ‘n versoek dat hulle hul inligting op datum bring.

18 28 June 2013 Brief

“Daar behoort eerder ‘n monument te wees om vir Inga dankie te sê”

J

ohan Hamman snr. sê in sy briewe aan die Zoutpansberger dat die SBBV en spesifiek Inga Gilfillan kwansuis spaarsamig met die waarheid sou omgaan of dit net pleinweg verdraai. Groot woorde die!

Gelukkig doen hy dit in sy privaat hoedanigheid, want dan kan hy seker nie vir my ‘n rekening stuur vir die volgende vrae en stellings wat ek op die hart het nie. Ek moet vir Hamman gelyk gee, die SBBV het nog nie ‘n saak teen die Makhado Munisipaliteit binne-in ‘n hof gewen nie, maar wel met ‘n skikking op die trappe van die Hooggeregshof in Pretoria (sien kopié van hofbevel in die Zoutpansberger van 14 Junie).

Die SBBV gaan ‘n nog groter rol speel in die toekoms; immers verteenwoordig hulle ‘n groot getal individuele belastingsbetalers wie se stem die reg het om aangehoor te word. Ek weet nie wie adviseer u kliënt om uitsprake te maak dat hy nie meer met drukgroepe gaan konsulteer nie. Dit is tog absurd om te verwag dat elke belastingbetaler in die dorp op sy eie ‘n afspraak moet maak om met u kliënt te vergader oor haar of sy griewe; daarvoor is die SBBV daar. Die paaie, riool, water en elektrisiteit wat nou so aandag kry, is grotendeels aan die SBBV en die weerhouding van belastinggeld te danke.

Inga Gilfillan verdien nie wat jy haar toevoeg nie. In haar 34 jaar in Makhado (Louis Trichardt) het sy nog net die dorp en sy mense gedien. Sy het skoolkinders gebruik om die strate op te ruim, sy werk volstoom elke dag net vir ons dorp en omgewing. As dit nie mynboubedrywighede is nie, dan is dit die Groengordel van die dorp, wat elke vyf minute deur jou kliënt bedreig word deur nuwe aansoeke om die Groengordel te vernietig, goed te keur. Sy is ook sekretaresse van die Voorsittersvereniging, die kurator van die Anglo-Boereoorlog Museum en nog vele ander liefdadigheidsorganisasies. Dit alles sonder ‘n sent vergoeding. Sou sy al hierdie poste kon beklee as sy, soos jy dit noem, “spaarsamig met die waarheid sou omgaan”? Sy doen dit alles vergoedingloos vir die liefde wat sy het vir die dorp en sy mense - die eens pragtige dorp waarheen ons in 1979 verhuis het.

Wat het jy al vir liefdadigheid of vir hierdie gemeenskap gedoen sonder vergoeding?

Inga verdien dat ‘n monument opgerig word vir haar onbaatsugtige werk, reg voor jou kliënt se ingang.

Miskien kan jy so ‘n fondsinsameling loods en jou kliënt oortuig om die standbeeld toe te laat.

Die Weg, die Waarheid en die Lewe

Raak ontslae van vlekke. Psalm 51:1-7

E

k is seker almal wat hier lees se vingers was al gevlek deur moerbeie. Seep en water kry die vlekke nie van jou hande af nie, maar neem ‘n groen moerbei en vryf dit oor die vlekke en die moerbeivlekke verdwyn.

Sonde laat ‘n vlek op liggaam en siel. Maak nie saak wat jy doen nie, alleen kan jy nie die vlek van sonde verwyder nie. Ons kan probeer om voorbeeldig te lewe, elke Sondag kerk toe te gaan, maar dit sal nie die vlek van sonde wegneem nie. Maar, loof die Here, die Bybel het die antwoord vir die vlek van die sonde.

In 1 Joh. 1:7 lees ons: “Maar as ons in die lig lewe soos Hy in die lig is ... reinig die bloed van Jesus, Sy Seun, ons van elke sonde.” Jesus het gesterf sodat ons sondes uitgewis kan word.

In Jes. 1:18 sê die Here: “Kom nou en laat ons die saak uitmaak: Al was julle sondes soos skarlaken, dit sal wit word soos sneeu; al was dit rooi soos purper, dit sal wit word soos wol.”

Jesus Christus is die antwoord vir die vlekke van sonde. Net Jesus kan sonde wegneem, en Hy doen dit wanneer ons deur God se genade, op Hom vertrou om dit te doen.

Het jy Christus al vertrou om jou sonde weg te neem deur jou lewe geheel en al aan Hom toe te vertrou?

Kort na afloop van die Levubu CVO Gholfdag moes dié drie spelers eers ´n band van hul geleende gholfkarretjie herstel. Die spelers het ´n randsteen raakgery en die agterwiel in die proses erg beskadig. Gelukkig vir Wulf Schwerdfeger (middel) en De Wet van Wyk (regs) het die karretjie nie omgeslaan nie en is niemand in die voorval beseer nie. Links staan Danie Jooste.

Voorkeur word gegee aan kort briewe oor plaaslike aangeleenthede. Die redakteur behou die reg voor om briewe te verkort. / Preference is given to short, factual letter concerning local matters. The editor reserves the right to shorten letters.

Currently serving in the British Armed Forces (BAF), Neil Purdon from Makhado (Louis Trichardt) participated in the Heroes Cycle Ride ride from Edinburgh to London in the United Kingdom on 2 June in support of the Help for Heroes charity. The charity serves wounded BAF servicemen and their families. The event was brought home to many Londoners by the recent murder of a serviceman, Drummer Lee Rigby, on 22 May by Islamic fundamentalists whilst he was wearing a Help for Heroes T-shirt.

In typical Saffa spirit, Neil has “Vasbyt” written on his arm (literally meaning to ‘grin and bear it’ and persevere), a state of mind all who have served in a defence force can remember well. Photo supplied.
