security officers had to close the main gate of the court building as community members wanted to enter the building to have a glance at the suspect. The marchers demanded that the suspect should never be given bail.

Ms Rinae Sengane of the Rinae Sengane Foundation said: “Although we know that the law will take its own course, we are worried because murder cases of woman are increasing on a daily basis. We will never rest until we win this war against these cruel people who live on human blood.”

She added that they had decided to march to show society that they said no to

the killing of women. “We went there to make a statement that all killers belong in prison. We abide by the law, which dictates that one remains innocent until proven otherwise by a court of law,” she added. “If found guilty, Manaka should rot in jail, because he would be no longer welcome in our community,” she said.

The Capricorn TVET College’s Student Representative Council president, Robert Bopape, said they would oppose bail by all means. “We have had enough of endless, brutal and senseless murders within our communities,” he added. “Our young ones do not deserve to die like rats.”

Life sentence must be life sentence

By Mbulaheni Ridovhona President Cyril Ramaphosa lashed out at criminals “prowling the streets of our country”, saying that they should be subject to hard labour in prisons and they should not be allowed to “see the light of day anymore”. He was speaking after visiting Precious Ramabulana’s family in Tshikuwi on Sunday to extend his condolences and to express deep sorrow on behalf of the people of South Africa.

The young student was brutally murdered after being stabbed 52 times a week ago. “We are ashamed as a nation that men seem to have declared outright war against the women of South Africa. This is a national shame that a young girl who had such a promising future, her life has been cut short by a man who killed her so brutally and slaughtered her like an animal,” President Ramaphosa said.

The president wants violence and abuse against women and children to be brought to an end. “It is for this reason that we have embarked on a major campaign in the country, which is backed up by a huge budget that we will want to increase next year to ensure that we spread the message particularly to men who are brutalizing and killing women. We are going to improve the criminal justice system to ensure that those who perpetrate these acts must know that once they are arrested and found guilty, they should never see the light of day anymore. And that once in prison, they must spend the rest of their days in prison,” Ramaphosa said.

The alleged killer had a pending rape case against him when he murdered Ramabulana.

“What saddens me even more is that the perpetrator had his brushes with the law on a rape type of charge and he was still out prowling on

TOUR TO EGYPT, ISRAEL, PALESTINE, MOUNT SINAI, RED SEA AND BURNING BUSH INCLUDING

By Mbulaheni Ridovhona Thousands of people gathered at Tshikuwi Primary School in Nzhelele last Friday to pay their last respects to Precious Ramabulana.

The 21-year-old student at Capricorn TVET College was found dead in her student accommodation at Mokomene a fortnight ago after being stabbed 52 times by an assailant. She was laid to rest at Tshirolwe.

Her friend, Kulani Mogale, described Precious as a person who loved praying. “Every time

when we had problems, she always encouraged us to pray.

She was someone who loved studying a lot and her only wish was to change her family’s situation,” Mogale said.

The Minister in the Presidency for Women, Youth and People with Disabilities, Maite Nkoana-Mashabane, said they were tired of senseless killings.

“We don’t want this kind of event again. We were born to lead in this country, and we must be respected,” she said.

The Deputy Minister of Higher Education and Training, Buti Manuela, said they were angry that Precious was

victim in a series of unforgivable acts of gender-based violence. “Men should take collective responsibility, because these killings happen as a result of entrenched patriarchy in our society,” Manamela said.

The president of the Capricorn TVET College SRC, Mr Robert Bopape, mentioned that Precious had been loved by everyone. “She was very dedicated to her studies. Her passion for education will be missed. We have a zero tolerance of the incidents of this nature. Killing of children and women is barbaric, evil and un-African,” he said.

The people who are arrested and sentenced, they should not enjoy life there. They should be subjected to hard labour because what they are doing to society is beyond words,” he said. “Some of them come out of prison without any form of remorse and then continue to perpetrate these acts.”

“Let us stop this war that men have declared against women. We cannot continue to build a nation when we are subjecting the females of our nation to degradation, bad treatment, rape, murder and violence,” said Ramaphosa.

The Ramabulana family decided that they would like to set up a Precious Ramabulana Trust. “We are going to support them in this because we believe that when we have non-governmental organisations like trusts that are aimed at addressing the issue of gender-based violence, we will be able to have national cohesion and continue building our country. We will continue to give the family the support they need,” Ramaphosa said.

In search of Biaba’s mysterious Lotto winner

By Maanda Bele The winning ticket in last week’s Powerball Jackpot was bought from a supermarket at Biaba in Nzhelele.

Some lucky guy won an amazing R114 242 816. Apparently, he only spent R15 to become an overnight multi-millionaire.

On Tuesday, I set off on a mission to try and find him.

It needs to be stated upfront that we did not want to expose him or publish his details. I merely wanted to ask him how this had changed his life.

Did he dream about ever winning such an amount? Would it change him?

Seeing that Biaba is not far from where I live, I took a taxi to the Sharp Supermarket where the lucky ticket was bought. Ithuba, the lottery operator, did not provide a lot of information to help me in my search. He is an unemployed father of two who survives by doing piece jobs, Ithuba said. Understandably, Ithuba did not disclose his name or where he lives.

Taxis are wonderful sources of information. While waiting, the passengers enjoy gossiping and very little escapes the attention of the commuters. Someone will always know of someone else who may have heard a story from a friend or relative.

I started off by boarding a taxi going to the west side of Nzhelele, patiently waiting for the lotto topic to arise.

A lady in the second seat behind the driver, wearing a black jacket with a red shirt, broke the ice. “Is it true that the winner of those millions is from

Biaba?” she asked. The taxi had about 10 passengers, all of whom had some opinion on the matter.

“I heard no one knows where he is from. I don’t think they will find him, because people usually disappear after winning so much money,” answered a lady sitting at the back of the taxi.

By this time the driver had already lowered the music to listen to the conversation. One guy at the back, who looked like he was high on something, responded laughing.

“I think the guy is already halfway overseas or hiding somewhere in Cape Town.

No one can stay here with that amount of money. We have a lot of witches here in Nzhelele.”

At Ha-Rabali, a man boarded the taxi wearing shades and a Madiba-designed shirt. He quickly picked up on the conversation and added his bit of wisdom. “I heard the guy is from HaMudimeli.”

The taxi was now passing the Mavhoi bus stop, where the lady who initiated the topic asked to get off. A man who looked like he was in his early 50s disagreed with the Ha-Rabali passenger. “I heard that the winner is from Tshikuwi and he is a Zimbabwean national. People who know him said he went back home.” This elicited some laughter, as most passengers seemingly did not believe this to be true.

By that time, I had reached my destination and I got off at the Sharp Supermarket where the winning ticket was bought. The shop is run by a Chinese gentleman and is located next to Biaba post office.

“I heard that the winner is from Tshikuwi and he is a Zimbabwean national. People who know him said he went back home.”

The shop was unusually busy for a Tuesday morning. I could not establish whether the people regularly buy their lotto tickets here, or if it was a sudden rush because they think it can lure more jackpot winners.

I waited for an opportunity to speak to the store manager, but this proved to be difficult. The Chinese man’s English was not what the Queen would consider exemplary, but I could more or less gather what he wanted to say.

He didn’t know who the winner was.

“A lot of people come here to bet. I don’t remember seeing him even after the results (were released). He didn’t

come here to claim because our maximum claim amount is R2 100.”

Outside the store a friendly lady was selling litchis. I asked her whether she had seen or heard about the jackpot winner. “I only heard people talking about him and I have not seen him, but people are saying he is from Tshituni village,” she said.

We chatted a bit and speculated about what we could do with R114 million. I had to ask my friend Google to find out what part of the money the taxman would grab. Apparently, nothing, as it is considered to be a form of capital gains. You only have to declare

it with SARS. Even on a very conservative investment you could earn over R665 000 interest per month (which would be taxable, but still).

I boarded another taxi, this time going to the eastern side of Nzhelele.

About five minutes away from my destination I asked the lady next to me if she knew anything about the lucky guy. The lady, wearing a dark blue dress with her hair nicely done as if she was just returning from the salon, responded: “I only heard about him on the radio. I heard he was unemployed. God is good, shame.”

for almost three hours, following the accident.

Rambado was first rushed to Louis Trichardt for treatment and then transferred to Polokwane. He was discharged from hospital on Tuesday.

Mr Fagenth Murulane, spokesperson for the Murulane family, said that they were still in shock. “Only God who knows why it happened like this.

It is very painful to lose people like this,” he said. The untimely death of Phathutshedzo did not only shock the community, but his friends and family members also. “We have received many messages of condolences, and

it shows us that Phathutshedzo was a people’s person and accommodating to everyone, irrespective of colour, race or religion,” he said.

Vhamusanda Vho-Ntanganedzeni Kutama expressed his condolences to the affected family. He added that the community members around the Kutama area were deeply touched, especially as the victim was still so young.

“The family members of the victim need our support in hard times like these, and we hope accidents of this nature, which can be prevented, will never again take place on our roads,”

he said. Kutama urged members of the community to drive responsibly and always obey the speed limit. He appealed to all drivers to be careful when they use the D3715 road, because it has lots of potholes.

Police spokesperson Brigadier Motlafela Mojapelo said that the police were investigating a case of reckless, negligent driving and culpable homicide.

Murulane said that the funeral service would be held at Madodonga, starting at 06:00 on Saturday morning.

Grade 6 learner from Nyahanelani wins Spelling Bee

By Silas Nduvheni

The police in Louis Trichardt have launched a search operation after the disappearance of a 33-year-old woman, Ms Precious Nicole Nyamusona, from the town. The provincial police spokesperson, Col Moatshe Ngoepe, stated that the victim was allegedly last seen by her husband when she left home for work on 25 November 2019 at about 05:30. A further report indicates that she had not arrived at her workplace. She was last seen wearing a red floral dress. At this stage, all attempts in searching for and locating her have proved fruitless. Anyone with information regarding Nyamusona’s whereabouts can immediately contact Lt-Col Mphagi Tshililo on 082 565 7877, the Crime Stop number 0860010111 or the nearest police station. Photo: SAPS.

A Grade 6 learner, Dembe Gangazhe from the deep rural Nyahanelani Primary School in Mukula village outside Thohoyandou, is an “instant heroine” at her school and the community at large after she won the national Spelling Bee competition in the Tshivenda category.

She competed against other learners from Gauteng and Mpumalanga in her category and surpassed them all. Gangazhe (11) won a big trophy, medals and an English dictionary.

Her mother, Ms Mercy Gangazhe, was over the moon to learn that her daughter had emerged as the winner of the competition. She said that she noticed her daughter’s interest in the movie, Akeelah and the Bee, which is about an 11-year-old girl living in South Los Angeles who discovers she has a talent for spelling. “I was surprised to hear her name called as the national winner of the competition, and I thank God for her success,” she said.

The principal of Nyahanelani Primary, Mr Konanani Mushavhanamadi, was very im-

pressed to learn that one of his learners had done so well in the competition. “We are excited that a rural-based school, with few resources at its disposal, can deliver such achievements, but

we have learned that hard work and determination can put you on the map,” he said. According to Mushavhanamadi, Gangazhe’s prize is the first of its kind in his school’s history.

“When I saw Miss Bachelorette SA, I said to myself: This is the time to make a move,” she said.

“I then followed as the journey advanced. Their vision to see growth in women’s financial and emotional independence and creating a platform for women to form business and social relationships so they can empower each other stimulated my interest.”

She had come to realise that the Miss Bachelorette South Africa was more than the pretty smiles and costumes that many people associate with beauty.

“I cherish the relationships built through this journey of sisterhood,” she said.

As much as she Mpho Phylicia Ramatsekisa.

had wished to achieve her dreams, she had reached the stage where she felt so energised to face and follow her dream of becoming a model.

“The new version of ‘unstoppable me’ saw an opportunity to stand up now and say, ‘I can do it’,” she said.

“As a 31-year-old lady, I saw it fit to come out and be the girl I always aspired to become,” she said. “I have been an introvert for most of my life and I have watched pageant opportunities through closed doors in the past. I have missed opportunities to step up and be part of what I have always admired, simply because I had not self-actualised.”

She attended Lotsha Primary School and Tshiitwa High School. She holds a B-Tech degree in environmental health from the Tshwane University of Technology. She is currently busy with her master’s degree in public relations through the University of Witwatersrand.

She will hold a fundraising event as part of scoring points in the pageant on 7 December.

Those interested in Mpho’s journey in this pageant can follow her on Facebook (Mpho Phyllicia) and Instagram (@ Mpho Phylicia). To increase her chances of winning, people can vote for her by sending an SMS, “MBSA MphoR,” to 33282.

Guards accuse company of not paying them on time

By Bernard Chiguvare A security company delivering services to, among others, the Musina Municipality, is accused of not paying workers on time and dismissing them without due processes’ being followed.

Tshau Security provides guards at all municipal properties in Musina. Some of the employees complain that they are not being treated fairly by the company.

Speaking on condition of anonymity, one of the female employees guarding a government complex said: “Whenever it comes to payment, we do not get our money in time. We at times get paid a week after the scheduled date of payment. My children are still of school-going age and they need transport fares. I need to buy electricity and food by month-end, but this does not happen. I will end up borrowing from loan sharks. The interest charged makes matters worse,” she said.

The 40-year-old woman was employed by the security company two years ago. She said that employees had voiced their concerns about the late payment on several occasions,

but the employer did not take them seriously.

Glandar, one of the five employees fired in October this year for allegedly influencing other employees not to report for duty, said: “Really, we used to suffer to make ends meet by month-end. We tried several times to engage management, but without any success,” she said.

According to Glandar, they were served with disciplinary letters. “On the very same day we went for the disciplinary

hearing, we got fired. Such actions by management to me are meant to silence workers.

Workers are not offered an opportunity to air their grievances,” she said.

Glandar produced a letter dated 25 October 2019 from the employer, calling her for a disciplinary hearing. The five

were accused of participation in an illegal strike or work stoppage and intimidating other employees. The charges against them included the incitement of other employees to behave in a disorderly and disruptive manner.

They were all dismissed the same day from work after the hearing.

Glandar and her colleagues have already taken the matter to the South African Transport and Allied Workers’ Union (SATAWU). Theothilus Sithagu, SATAWU’s provincial coordinator for the security sector, said that the union had already taken the matter up with the CCMA. The management of the Tshau Security company were contacted for comment, but they declined the opportunity.

The Musina Municipality was contacted and asked whether Tshau Security got paid on time. The municipality’s spokesperson, Wilson Dzebu, refused to divulge any information. “The contract between the municipality and Tshau does not involve a third party. It’s a confidential issue between the municipality and the service provider,” he said.

Limpopo Mirror visited one of the five beneficiaries, Gogo Sara Nekhubvi (65), who lives with her granddaughter in a round mud house and a newly built one-room house. Gogo Nekhubvi said it had been over a decade and some years since she first applied for an RDP house.

The spokesperson of the MEC for COGHSTA, Mr Molebatsi Masedi, said the 2003/4 5 RDP housing project in Tshithuthuni was under review. “It was blocked, following a number of abandoned projects some years ago,” he said.

He said that the department had since embarked on a programme of unblocking these projects and a new contractor had been appointed to complete the housing units at Tshithuthuni before the end of March 2020.

Mafuwa said he was worried that most of the youth today seemed to be more dependent on handouts. “We need to work hard in order to realise our potential. I’m prepared to teach my skills to the youth free of charge, only if they are ready to learn and later establish their own businesses.

By Tshifhiwa Mukwevho “Life without laughter and mirth would be a boring journey to the dry desert where water is a scarce commodity.”

The most-booked comedian in Vhembe District, Emmanuel “Smanuza” Phunyugu, became philosophical when he met up with Limpopo Mirror recently for an interview.

“To me, comedy is the essence of life, just like music is to some people,” he said. “There’s comedy in most aspects of our lives.

Without comedy, people who are bereaved, injured or hurt would cry forever. We find the healing in jokes.”

Smanuza is a self-taught comedian, who started experimenting with the craft some seven years ago. His first video clip went viral on social media in 2015, where he was teaching a White man to speak Tshivenda. It was entitled Mukapi was tshisima a si munwi watsho. “People loved it very much and it had reached hundreds of

Smanuza cracks jokes for you thousands of views in a short space of time.”

As a comedian, he puts on a wig and mimics most popular Tshivenda singers and musicians and he sees this as a way of promoting those very artists.

“I had done a Makhadzi and Dj Call Me's Matorokisi mimic so well and the clip which I had then uploaded on YouTube went viral,” he said.

He has a sub-slot on Phalaphala FM's Dziya Orowa 17:25, and his jokes are known as part of midayi na vhapo.

He has so far recorded and published over 300 video clips online, but he still views himself as an “upcoming comedian”. He has worked with Bushy Malima from Ha-Magau as an actor in Zwo vhifha mara zwi do naka.

“I appear in gigs and at corporative functions for money since I am a professional comedian,” he said. “I am now working on amazing works with my contemporaries, Tshigomele and Cyria Tshipetana.

Nethengwe is the brain behind Phalaphala FM’s sound The people behind the scenes at a radio station do not often receive the accolades they deserve. Phalaphala FM’s sound producer and imaging specialist, Mutenda Nethengwe, however, has become a well-known name because of his skills and knowledge.

Nethengwe ascribes his popularity to hard work and determination. He says that the secrets for success are hard work, effective time management and the desire to succeed.

“I set realistic goals for myself and I strive to achieve them. I have also learnt to believe in myself and to learn from my past mistakes,” he explains.

He was born in Tshandama and he started his primary education at Tshandama Primary.

He later went to Thengwe Secondary and passed his Grade 12 at Harmain Technical High School in Thohoyandou. After he finished school, he registered for a diploma in sound engineering and production at the Johannesburg Academy of Sound.

“I could not resist the opportunity to join Phalaphala FM five years ago, because I wanted to expose my talent to the public,” he says. This, however, is not the pinnacle of his achievements and he hopes to expand his knowledge and experience. “I’m still young and there is still more to offer to my community. I do not allow fame to go to my head, and I gave myself more time to study.”

He enjoys his work so much that he has come to realise that there is nothing more fulfilling than doing one’s work with love. He added that teamwork was very important in life. “Without teamwork, there is no productivity. The hardest part of the job is when you are chasing a deadline.”

When Nethengwe is not working, he loves reading and writing. His message to young people is to always put education first. “Go to school, find out what you want and go after it.

Never let anyone tell you that you cannot do something; believe in yourself,” he concludes.

She prides herself on her four sisters and a brother, who are the pillars of her strength. She matriculated in 2013 and went on to study music at SWG College in Dobsonville, Gauteng.

“In short, 2019 has been my amazing year as a singer, for I had performed at over 100 gigs where I was mostly brushing shoulders with male artists,” she said.

“It's high time that more and more female artists push forth and claim their position in the industry.”

Ramigo reintegrates into new world after serving 17 year sentence

By Tshifhiwa Mukwevho “I wish I could turn back the hand of time, so that I could start living from scratch and avoid the path that had led me into committing my crimes. This thought nags at my mind all the time.”

Michael Ramigo sits on a wooden stool outside his father’s house in Rabali village in the Nzhelele area. He stands up and slips into the house and reappears again, carrying a poster-face-statue of South Africa’s former state president, Mr Nelson Mandela, which he had made.

He squints his eyes as the glare of the sunshine assails his face. Maybe his eyes are not yet used to the sun. He has just been released on parole after spending 17 years in prison.

He was sentenced to 45 years’ imprisonment for armed robbery (vehicle), kidnapping and

attempted rape. Some of his sentences were running concurrently, which had brought his actual sentence to 35 years.

“After committing all those crimes and staying in prison for most of my life, it’s not easy to tell people that one has changed and then they believe you for your words,” he said softly. “I had had enough time in jail to reflect on my crimes.

Sometimes I would spend sleepless nights feeling ragged and hating myself – that was when I thought that I had wronged other people, and people who were innocent, for that matter.”

Ramigo finds it hard to comprehend the impetus that had driven him into committing the crimes. “While I had done all those crimes with my five co-accused, I cannot today shift blame on them by saying that they had led me along,” he says. “Peer pressure is a complex element – the need to please friends, to fit in and to appear ‘good’ in the eyes of other people

who do not even care how you look or how you are dressed.”

He was arrested in 2002 and the case had dragged on until they were sentenced in 2005.

“Just after sentencing, we were all put in shackles and handcuffs,” he said. “So, hobbling out of the courtroom and getting shoved into the back of the van, it felt like my world had come to an end. It had given me a terrible feeling. The saying that crime doesn’t pay rang louder in my brain.”

Through the years, Ramigo had to undergo rehabilitation programmes, ranging from anger management to overcoming substance abuse.

He had to learn new life skills to help prevent relapses. “I was released on 30 October and my family had welcomed me with open, warm arms,” he said. “At the time of my arrest, my sons were still young, a two-year-old, and the other was a few months old. Now they are 19

and 17. I am with their mother. We are bonding, it’s a journey of reintegration.”

Ramigo is facing about 17 years’ time as a parolee, where he will have to spend all those years complying with the rules that govern him as a parolee.

“I spend my time fashioning soaked newspapers into decorative drums, bowls, statues, tangos, flowerpots and portraits,” he said. “I learned the skill of pottery making in prison. I aim to utilise these skills to earn a living, so that I get to fully support my wife and children. My artefacts sell from R500 each. I am still creating my market. If I can get more old newspapers, some green bar soaps and paints, I can create more of these decorative artefacts.”

He has some words of advice to the youth: “Stay away from crime. Focus on your studies and make good friends who always encourage you to do good things and not bad things.”

Michael Ramigo beats the decorative drum he had made.

Vhembe District Men’s Parliament get launched in Thohoyandou

By Silas Nduvheni The executive mayor of the Vhembe District Municipality (VDM), Cllr Dowelani Nenguda, has called on men to stop abusing women and children and urged them to stand up and be active participants in fighting gender-based violence.

Cllr Nenguda was addressing hundreds of men from all corners of the Vhembe District during the launch of the Vhembe District Men’s Parliament in Thohoyandou on Friday. He said that the Men’s Parliament was an initiative

of the South African National Aids Council (SANAC)’s Men’s Sector, in partnership with the Department of Social Development within the broader “Takuwani Riime Movement”.

This is a call to action for men by men to stand up and be counted as meaningful partners in the health and socio-economic development of communities.

“The men’s forum was established also to look at how men can be engaged in dealing with various social issues such as the victimisation of women and children, violence in families, alcohol and drug

abuse and gender-based violence,” said Nenguda.

The chairperson of Munna Ndi Nnyi (Who is the real man?), Dr Bardwell Mufunwaini, has urged the Vhembe District Municipality to help fund organisations that are active in fighting gender-based violence, so that they can go around and form street communities.

Mr Ntando Yola, the chairperson of the National Men’s Parliament, said he was convinced that the regional Men’s Parliament in Vhembe would help fight all gender-based violence.

Breakers and Greenway in a draw

By Kaizer Nengovhela The coach of Greenway Academy, Mr Justice Matloga, was disappointed when his team was held to a 4-4 draw against Tshikhwani Stone Breakers on Sunday. The match took place at the Tshikhwani grounds and formed part of Stream E of the MMK Administrators League.

Greenway were leading 3-0 in the first half and Matloga’s disappointment with the result is understandable. “We were not supposed to draw this game. We created a lot of chances and we were fighting, but this is football,” he added.

“We made four mistakes and didn’t manage the space behind our defensive line. It was only in those situations that we were not at our best,” he continued.

The coach of Tshikhwani Stone Breakers, Mr Masia Mulaudzi, was much more content with the result. “I have to give credit to the players. We had absolutely controlled the game

fully,” he said. He discussed the strategy and mentioned that after halftime they had played a risky game but had taken control of the match.

Mulaudzi said that in soccer one had no time to relax or be complacent. “We have learnt this lesson the hard way. I’m happy with the outcome, but it could have been better, espe-

cially the second half.”

The goal scorers for Greenway Academy were Senhle Chabalala (who scored a brace), Temosho Matlabane and Moshi Mohau. Breakers’ goal scorers were Marubini Mushukwa (who scored twice), Daniel Mukosi and Thwalima Ramashidzha.

They will host The Dolphins FC at the Rabali Stadium tomorrow afternoon.

The fact that Mikhado and Dolphins are closely contesting for the league title is reason enough for the local football fanatics to expect to watch a thriller. Mikhado were in the second spot on the log standings with 21 points accumulated from 11 matches before their match against VFA on Wednesday.

Mikhado’s new head coach, Mr Abel Makhubele, will be sitting on the team’s technical bench for the second time tomorrow. Makhubele, whose appointment as the team’s head coach came into effect on Monday this week, was put to the test in their game against VFA on Wednesday.

Local MMK derby ends in 1-1 draw opposition.

According to Try Again’s The local MMK Administracoach, Mr Scara Phathela, the tors derby between Madomdraw was a true reflection of bidzha Western Stars and the game. “We played well in Madombidzha Try Again at the first half, with two attempts hitting the crossbar. One of our players, Tendamudzi Ramovha, could have scored four goals, but it was not his day. The second half was 50/50, as Try Again also had several opportunities,” said Phathela.

Stars’ coach, Mr Jack Matshavha, said he was happy with the performance of the players. “It is difficult to collect maximum points in a derby.

The players showed good sportsmanship, and there was no sign of any dirty play,” he said.

He added that they had played well in the first half but lost concentration in the second half. Marubini Malogo scored for Stars and Baldwin Sepheyi Marubini Malogo of Stars attacks and Kamogelo Setlhabe of Try scored for Try Again.

Will the Stars shine over Vhadau?

By Frank Mavhungu After kissing the Nedbank Cup KO competition goodbye at the Thohoyandou Stadium last weekend, following their 3-4 defeat at the hands of Uthongathi FC, Tshakhuma Tsha Madzivhandila (TTM) are now fully focused on the league title.

According to the team’s caretaker coach, Mr

TTM’s doubtful starter, Tshepo Makgoga.

Lucky “Mchichwa” Nelukau, they regard the defeat to Uthongathi as water under the bridge.

Mr Nelukau said that although the defeat was an embarrassment to both the players and management, he regarded it as a blessing in disguise. He further indicated that staying in the Nedbank Cup would divide their attention.

TTM, or Vhadau Vha Damani as they are affectionately called, will host Free State Stars in their GladAfrica Championship League match at the Thohoyandou Stadium on Sunday.

Asked about the team’s level of readiness for the game, Mr Nelukau revealed that the team was ready to absorb the heat from the former Absa Premiership side. According to him, the only player who is a doubtful starter is Tshepo Makgoga. Makgoga was taken off the pitch on a stretcher with a pulled muscle in their game against Uthongathi last Sunday. Should Makgoga not be available for selection on Sunday, the former Black Leopards skipper, Jean Munganga, is likely to be the placeholder.

Ajax Cape Town will host JDR Stars at the Cape Town Stadium. Mbombela United will host Real Kings at the Kanyamazane Stadium in Nelspruit. The KZN derby between Royal Eagles and Richards Bay FC will be staged at the Harry Gwala Stadium in Pietermaritzburg.

Swallows FC will fight for league points with University of Pretoria at the Volkswagen Dobsonville Stadium. TS Sporting will rub shoulders with Cape Umoya United at the Kabokweni Stadium outside Nelspruit. The pace setters, Uthongathi FC, will pay a visit to TS Galaxy at the Kameelrivier Stadium in Siyabuswa. Jomo Cosmos will play against Steenberg United at the Vosloorus Stadium.

Mikhado FC recall coach Makhubele

By Frank Mavhungu

TTM’s centre back, Jean Munganga.

“The devil you know is better than the one you don’t.”

This saying is quite relevant to the situation in which one of the Vhembe-based ABC Motsepe League sides, Mikhado FC, find themselves now. Mikhado swallowed their pride and recalled the team’s former head coach, Mr Abel Makhubele, on Monday.

Makhubele’s appointment comes after Mikhado parted ways with the former head coach, Mr Tshepo Motsoneng, last weekend. According to the club’s public relations manager, Mr Prince Manenzhe, the decision to appoint Mr Makhubele was reached after the realisation that the team’s future was looking bleak under the guidance of Motsoneng.

Mikhado played 11 matches under the guidance of Motsoneng, won 6, drew 3 and lost 2. Although Mikhado are closely contesting for the league title, Mr Manenzhe said that they were not happy with the team’s performance, considering the fact that they had assembled what he described as the best squad ever. Mr Manenzhe said that the team’s performance should have been consistent under the circumstances.

He further indicated that most of the players knew Mr Makhubele’s coaching philosophy since they were part of last season’s team. He stressed the fact that, as management of the team, they knew Mr Makhubele’s weak and strong points, so it would be easy for them to give him guidance when the need arose.

Mr Makhubele was appointed the head coach for Mikhado FC early last season. The team were on top of the log at the end of the season, securing a place in the national promotional playoffs. Unfortunately for Mikhado, they could not make the grade there. His relationship with the club from the Nzhelele Valley came to an end after the playoffs in June this year.

Asked about his new appointment, the former Black Leopards and Dynamos head coach said he was happy to be associated with Mikhado again.

Makhubele was on the team’s technical bench when Mikhado played against Venda Football Academy in their league match at the Tshifudi Stadium on Wednesday afternoon.

TTM’s Nedbank road ends

By Frank Mavhungu Now that Tshakhuma Tsha Madzivhandila (TTM) are out of the Nedbank Cup KO competition, Black Leopards are the only hope for local football lovers in the annual event. TTM lost 3-4 to Uthongathi FC at the Thohoyandou Stadium last Sunday.

Asked to comment after the humiliating defeat, Mr Lucky “Mchichwa” Nelukau, the team’s caretaker coach, described the result of the match as a bitter pill to swallow for him. He stated that their aim had been to do better than what they had achieved last season. Vhadau Vha Damani were booted out of the competition by the Absa Premiership side, Chippa United, in the last-16 stage last season. They beat them 2-0 at the Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium in Port Elizabeth.

Although his team lost the match, Mr Nelukau was singing the praises of his players after the final whistle. He indicated that the boys had done everything right from the start to the bitter and that the visitors from Durban had been lucky to snatch the winning goal just a

minute before the referee, Mr Michael Mosemeng, had blown the final whistle. Mr Nelukau reiterated that their primary focus will be on the league title now that their Nedbank Cup road has come to an end.

Mr John Ferreira, the head coach of Uthongathi FC, was quick to mention that they were lucky to come out of the Thohoyandou Stadium alive.

According to him, TTM deserved to win the match as they had enjoyed ball possession for the better part of the game.

TTM were trailing 0-2 at

some stage, but they did not throw in the towel. They took the game to the visitors after introducing Tommy Mandlazi and Phumelele Bhengu for Nhlanhla Mgaga and Wonderboy Makhubu respectively.

Mboniseni Mbandlwa scored the first goal while the team’s captain, Carlington Nyadombo, netted the equalizer. TTM took the lead in the first half of extra time, but their celebrations were cut short as Uthongathi scored two goals in quick succession in the dying minutes of the game.

After beating the stubborn Lamontville Golden Arrows 2-1 in their Absa Premiership League match at the Thohoyandou Stadium last Saturday, Black Leopards are geared to collect more significant league points when they host Amazulu FC at the same venue tomorrow afternoon. Should they manage to collect full points at the expense of Amazulu, Leopards are likely to jump to the sixth position on the log standings.

Lidoda duvha moved from the 12th to the ninth spot on the log after their victory over Golden Arrows.

During an interview with Mr Luc Eymael, the Leopards’ head coach, he said that he was working on the strikers’ target

shooting throughout the week.

According to him that was influenced by the fact that they had squandered numerous scoring opportunities in their last two games against Chippa United and Lamontville Golden Arrows.

Mr Eymael said that his team could have scored at least four goals against Golden Arrows were it not for the strikers’ poor finishing. He reiterated the fact that he was not blaming anyone for saying that such things do happen in football.

Although they are still fighting for survival, Amazulu’s performance improved dramatically after appointing Mr Jozef Vukusic as the team’s head coach. The KZN side are lying in the second-last position on the log with 12 points, just one above the tailenders, Chippa United.
