Expect more dry taps as town’s water woes continue By Andries van Zyl Residents of Louis Trichardt and surrounds experienced another week of dry taps as pipe burst after pipe burst continued to plague the Vhembe District Municipality (VDM), and Eskom’s announcement on Tuesday to implement Stage-2 load shedding for the rest of the week will surely contribute to the town’s dire water situation. Social media lit up with pictures and videos of the massive mainline waterpipe burst opposite Thompson’s Motors and the N1 in Louis Trichardt last Thursday afternoon. The pipe burst occurred during excavations for the establishment of service infrastructure for a new residential area north of Stubbs Street in Extension 9, a development marred by controversy and secrecy since excavations started about two months ago. Millions of litres of drinking water went to

waste because of the pipe burst, and the area along Stubbs Street resembled a flood zone. Several hours passed, until valves were finally closed to allow officials from the VDM to assess the situation. Initial indications were that contractors would be able to repair the damaged pipeline and restore the water supply to Louis Trichardt within 24 hours. On Friday, 29 April, the VDM issued a statement regarding the burst pipeline, merely stating that a contractor had been appointed to fix the problem and apologising for any inconvenience caused. No indication was given as to how long the work to repair the pipeline would take. The town’s taps, however, remained dry for the duration of the weekend and queues started forming once again at the AfriForum communal borehole in President Steyn Street as the water situation became critical for many. On Sunday morning, 1 May, the VDM released

Woman get ten years after trying to smuggle explosive into country Court News The National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) in Limpopo has welcomed the sentencing of three Zimbabwean nationals in the Regional Court in Musina last week for the smuggling of explosives. The three, Loveness Mbele (31), Lodrick Chidhakwa (34) and Tongai Mpofu (33), were arrested on 11 January this year. “The three accused came into South Africa without being

ie verrese Christus is ook aan die regterhand van die Vader om vir ons in te tree. Satan is ook daar om dag en nag ons aan te kla by God, maar ons pleitbesorger is sterker as hy (Openbaring 12:10). Dikwels wanneer ‘n mens aan die einde van ‘n dag kom en terugdink aan alles wat jy ervaar het, bemerk jy hoe ‘n hand jou weerhou het van ‘n gewisse misstap en val. Dit was Christus wat vir jou daardie oomblik by sy hemelse Vader ingetree het. Wat ‘n wonderlike versekering vir die gelowige dat hy ‘n bondgenoot in die hemel het. Sy gebede het egter nog ‘n funksie om te vervul. Johannes sien ‘n ander engel met ‘n goue wierookbak, en baie wierook is aan Hom gegee, om dit met die gebede van al die heiliges op die goue altaar voor die Troon te lê (Openbaring 8:3). Selfs die gebede van die heiliges is in hulself nie voor God aanneemlik nie, maar is met sonde bevlek en kan voor Hom nie bestaan sonder die verdienste van ons Middelaar nie. Hier lê vir ons ‘n diepe verootmoediging, maar ook dankbaarheid dat ons kan reken op Christus se gebede! - Ds. Johan Marais (Louis Trichardt Baptistekerk)

in possession of travelling documents. They also did not pass through the Beitbridge Port of Entry and were not examined by an immigration officer,” said provincial NPA spokesperson Ms Mashudu Malabi-Dzhangi. According to Malabi-Dzhangi, Mbele admitted to the South African National Defence Force (SANDF) that the explosives found in their possession belonged to her, and that Lodrick and Tongai had only offered their assistance to carry the bags of explosives in return for payment as she had difficulty carrying them. “The bags contained six reels of detonating cord, 50 units of blasting cartridges and 65 units of connector capped fuses. On 3 March 2022, Mbele pleaded guilty to two counts related to the smuggling of explosives and immigration offences. Chidhakwa and Mpofu also pleaded guilty on charges of illegal immigration,” said Malabi-Dzhangi. In aggravation of sentence, State Advocate Patricia Dorothy Jacobs indicated to the court that the offences were serious, that illegal dealing in explosives had seriously increased and that syndicate kingpins used young ladies with small children as mules in an attempt to get the court’s sympathy. The accused and like-minded persons, she said, should be prevented from bringing explosives into South Africa. She further submitted that immigrants had little to no regard for the laws of South Africa. Furthermore, Jacobs stated, the country faced a big economic crisis and was barely keeping up with its own residents’ basic needs. The court agreed with the submissions of the State. Mbele was sentenced to 10 years’ direct imprisonment for the possession of explosives, 10 years for importing explosives and a fine of R5000 or three months’ imprisonment on a count of illegal immigration. Mbele’s sentence was ordered to run concurrently with the main count of 10 years direct imprisonment. Chidhakwa and Mpofu were sentenced to three months’ direct imprisonment or to pay a fine of R5000 each. “The NPA welcomes the sentence and the DPP, Advocate Ivy Thenga, commends the good work of the SANDF in Musina and Advocate Jacobs for a sterling job,’ said Malabi-Dzhangi.

another statement, informing residents that another pipe burst at booster pump number 3 would continue to result in water shortages in Louis Trichardt and Tshikota. “The contractor and Vhembe District technicians are busy fixing the burst pipelines at Extension 9 along N1 road and the burst pipeline at the booster pump station 03. We apologise for the inconvenience caused,” the VDM’s statement read. By Tuesday morning, the town’s taps were still dry. The VDM was asked to give feedback on the situation and to explain the delay in restoring the town’s water supply. In response, VDM spokesperson Mr Moses Shibambu said that both the mainline pipe burst in Extension 9, as well as at booster station number 3 had been fixed, but that the mainline fixed in Extension 9 had burst again. At that stage, Shibambu said, VDM technicians had closed the

Mowkop Reservoir in Louis Trichardt to repair the burst pipe, but that they would continue to pump water directly into the supply pipeline to try and alleviate the water crisis. A couple of hours later, Shibambu confirmed that the burst pipe had been fixed again and that the VDM had started pumping water again. By Wednesday morning, residents from some parts in Louis Trichardt reported that water supply to their homes had been restored. Others, however, reported that their taps remained dry, not allowing them to wash, do laundry or flush their toilets. Why some parts of town have water and others do not remains unclear. What is clear is that residents should stock up on their water supply, following Eskom’s announcement on Tuesday that they had implemented Stage-2 load shedding. This will again cause interruptions in VDM’s water-pumping schedule, which has proven to cause water shortages in the past.

She is too weak to walk now, and very little is left of her eyesight, but her hearing is still strong and, although she speaks slowly, her mind is still sharp enough to communicate. She even shared some of her memories of the olden days. “A long, long time ago, we used to live in makeshift thatched huts; there were no houses like what you see today.

Wat dit betref, en ten spyte van ‘n redelike stil tydperk ná die rooftog in Douthwaitstraat op 11 April, word inwoners steeds gewaarsku om paraat te wees en nie hulle veiligheidsprosedures te verslap nie.

an interview in 1999, shortly after his appointment at the local municipality, he told the Zoutpansberger that he would one day like to pursue a career in the academic world. “Little did I know that the time would be in April 2022,” he said. Adv Ameermia is very excited about this new chapter in his life. He believes this will give him an opportunity to share his experiences with a wider audience. He will be able to convey his experiences, not only as a champion of human rights, but also as a civil servant and the challenges involved. “My family and I always cherish those beautiful memories of having served the people of the Soutpansberg and once again we wish to thank all the beautiful people of the Makhado Municipality for all their hospitality, kindness, generosity and their spirit and comradeship,” he said.

Local Muslim community celebrates Eid-al-Fitr By Anton van Zyl

On Tuesday, members of the local Muslim community celebrated Eid-al-Fitr, which marks the end of the month-long dawn-tosunset fasting of Ramadan. This year, the celebrations started on a slightly different note, as non-Muslim members of the community were also invited to join the festivities and watch the sighting of the moon on Monday night at the Masjid Al Noor mosque. Ahmed Hasturk, the local Director of the Universal Islamic Cultural Trust (UICT), explained that the UICT had started a few new traditions in an effort to bring communities together. One of these was to invite families to bring a picnic basket and enjoy the sighting of the new moon with them. It also gave an opportunity to Muslim families to break their fasting period while relaxing in the gardens at the mosque. Members of the Muslim community celebrated Ramadan the past month, which includes a fasting period from dawn to sunset. During

Ramadan, a lot of emphasis is placed on charitable work in the community. “During the fasting period, we gathered together every Sunday at the Masjid Al Noor gardens to cook food and distribute these to more than 200 families, which included Muslim and non-Muslims families,” said Hasturk. The UICT also runs an Islamic pre-school facility at the mosque, which is the only one of its kind in town. “We provided iftar (dinner) for all the parents of the children at the school one night as part of the Ramadan activities,” Hasturk said. The UICT is an internationally registered non-profit organisation that, among their activities, also provides boarding schools for less-privileged children. Monday’s sighting of the moon introduced the new month, which means that the Eid celebrations could commence. “The tradition of bringing the community together is a big one in Cape Town and the UICT hopes to make this an annual gathering,” Hasturk added.

Zoutpansberger Hierdie week, 25 jaar gelede, het die Soutpansberg saam met die Du Plessis-familie van Louis Trichardt gerou ná die dood van die 20-jarige Leonie du Plessis in ‘n motorongeluk op die N1 suid, sowat 25 km buiten Louis Trichardt. Leonie, ‘n oud-leerling van Hoërskool Louis Trichardt, is dood nadat die bakkie waarin sy en ‘n vriend, Pieter Otto, gereis het laataand teen ‘n vragmotor gebots het terwyl hulle op pad terug was huis toe ná ‘n besoek aan die destydse Pieters Pietersburg Skou. Ook op die voorblad van 2 Mei 1997 het lede van die Inwonersver eniging die destydse burgemeester, mnr. Patrick Sikhutshi, daarvan beskuldig dat hy die raad verdeel. Die ses raadslede van die Inwo nersvereniging het uit ‘n Raadsver gadering gestap, nadat ‘n besluit geneem is om nie klagte aangaande Sikhutshi in die openbaar te bespreek nie. Die ses raadslede het aangevoer dat dit ‘n oortreding van die land se Grondwet is wat sê dat alle raadsaangeleenthede op ‘n deursigtige grondslag hanteer moet word. Die ANC het egter aangevoer dat die klagte teen die burgemeester nie van die publiek kom nie, maar van raadslede en dus agter geslote deure bespreek moes word. Geen konsensus kon bereik word nie. Die klagte teen Sikhutshi het gespruit uit optrede oor etlike maande, met

beskuldiging dat hy met sy optrede die raad verdeel het. Die Soutpansberg het daardie week ook besoek ontvang van drie avonturiers, Karl Langdon (25), Shan Atkanson (36) en Bruce Lawson (28). Die driemanskap van Nelspruit was besig om vanaf die Kaap tot in Kaïro te stap. Hulle het met hul besoek reeds sowat 2 263 km afgelê en was toe meer as vier maande op die pad. Nog sowat 10 000 km het vir hulle voorgelê.

André Naudé het diep spore by firma getrap Deur Pétria de Vaal André Naudé, bekende, gesiene en geliefde prokureur en direkteur van Coxwell, Steyn, Vise en Naudé (CSVN) het aan die einde van April vanjaar afgetree. Hy het diep spore in hierdie 104-jaar-oue prokureursfirma getrap. André is in 1955 in Johannesburg gebore en het aan die Hoërskool Linden gematrikuleer, waar hy hoofseun was in 1972. Hierna het hy sy BA graad aan die Universiteit van Pretoria voltooi, alvorens hy sy LLB aan die destydse Potchefstroomse Universiteit verwerf het. Hy het sy klerkskap by die Staatsprokureur gedoen tot Augustus 1983, waarna hulle na Louis Trichardt verhuis het. Hier het hy aangesluit by CSVN, waar hy sy leerklerkskap onder die bekwame leiding van die legendariese Roelf Steyn voltooi het. André het in April 1984 vennoot van hierdie firma geword. “Dit was ‘n voorreg om in die voetspore van Roelf Steyn verder te stap en ook met mnr. Pie ter de Vaal (destyds prokureur van Louis Trichardt en outeur van Die Dorp Louis Trichardt) saam te werk aan die historiese navorsing ten opsigte van die Louis Trichardt / Makhado naamsaak. Mnre. De Vaal en Roelf Steyn was uitsonderlike mense,” sê André. André is deel van ‘n aantal legendariese persone wat deel was van die firma sedert dit in 1918 tot stand gekom het. André se naam sal beslis verewig word in die firma se geskiedenisboeke. Hy het ‘n groot aantal hoogtepunte in sy loopbaan en lewe beleef – byna te veel om op te noem. Die stig van ‘n prokureursvereniging kort ná 1984 was ‘n besliste hoogtepunt. André vertel ook dat sy diens by die Soutpansberg Kommando (aanvanklik as kaptein en later as majoor) hom na aan die hart lê. Daar het hy dissiplinêre verhore hanteer en regsadvies in dié verband gegee. “In 1993-1994 is ‘n aansoek teen die Venda Coalition Committee ingedien om die destydse Venda regering te dwing om weer beheer oor die Staat oor te neem en die Staat behoorlik te regeer. Ons het ‘n interdik in die Hooggeregshof in Venda gekry om die opstande wat toe aan die orde van die dag was, tot stilstand te bring. In hierdie tyd is daar gepraat van direkteur-generaals as instant millionnaires. Ons moes uit die hof en parlement-terrein begelei word en beweeg deur ‘n massa van ongeveer 36 000 mense wat destyds teen die Venda regering in opstand gekom het. Ná die hofbevel is wet en orde herstel. Hierdie hofsake is in die Suid-Afrikaanse hofverslae gepubliseer,” onthou André. André was ook in die vroeë negentigerjare voorsitter van Soutpansberg Laerskool se bestuursliggaam. “In hierdie tyd het ons die eerste rekenaarsentrum vir ‘n laerskool gevestig. Rekenaartaal en -terminologie is in Afrikaans vertaal en aangebied,” sê hy. André vertel ook dat hulle dikwels musiekaande aangebied het.

By een so ‘n geleentheid het Gé Korsten en Rina Hugo hulle eerste duet saamgesing – op uitdruklike versoek. Die Afrikaans- en Engelssprekende mense het ongelooflik goed, hard en spontaan saamgewerk om Souties ‘n baie goeie skool te maak. Benewens André se eie boerderybedrywighede en –vertakkinge sedert 1984 (onder meer ‘n cockatoo papegaaiboerdery, proteas, avokado’s, wild en beeste), was hy betrokke by die regi strasie van planttelersregte ten opsigte van die peppadew produkte in die 1990’s. Hy was ook verantwoordelik vir die internasionale kontrakte in hierdie verband, sowel as die kontrakte met boere. André was ook betrokke by die vestiging van ‘n tot dusver uiters suksesvolle struktuur be staande uit die boere in die berg om grondeise teen te staan. “Saam met ‘n groep leraars het ek as regsadviseur opgetree om aan die Algemene Sinode van die NG Kerk advies te gee om uitsprake te doen oor die kerk se siening ten opsigte van grondeise en die hantering daarvan kort ná 1998,” voeg André by. Hy vertel ook dat hy in ongeveer 2001 betrokke was by die eerste entrepreneursweek – gereël deur die Soutpansbergse Sakekamer. Sowat 4 500 leerlinge is toegespreek en opgelei. Mnr. Cyril Ramaphosa en mnr. Tito Mboweni was van die sprekers tydens hierdie geleentheid. André het op twee verskillende geleent hede toekennings van die Soutpansberg Sakekamer ontvang. Hy is aangewys as die Sakepersoonlikheid van die Jaar in 2003 en het die Voorsitterstoekenning van Iain Purdon (toe voorsitter) gedurende 2006 ontvang. André se een dogter, Johesta, het tydens dieselfde geleentheid met ‘n toekenning as top-entrepreneur weggestap. Onder André se bekwame leiding het die Voorsittersvereniging talle suksesse behaal. ‘n Sinergie is gevestig tussen alle kultuurgroepe in die omgewing, bestaande uit ongeveer 70 000 lede. “Dit het tot geweldige goeie resultate gelei in onderhandelinge met munisipaliteite en ander instansies om goeie koöperatiewe bestuur, deursigtigheid en eerlikheid te vestig en die nodige drukgroep te vorm om dit af te dwing,” sê hy. Een van die Voorsittersvereniging se grootste suksesverhale was met die saak oor die naamsveranderandering van die dorp. “Sedert ongeveer 2003 is heelwat teëspoed ervaar, maar die uiteinde van die saak, toe dit in 2016 gefinaliseer is, is dat die dorp se naam steeds Louis Trichardt is,” sê André. In 2009 is die “Calvary Community Empowerment Award” vir “outstanding service as community builder” deur President Kgalema Motlanthe aan André en sy dogter Marisa Naudé-Odendaal oorhandig. “Een van die grootste en mees spesiale oomblikke was toe die Streekshof Landdros, me. Kellerman, op 25 April 2022 die hele Streekhof versoek het om aan my ‘n laaste totsiens-buiging te doen. Mnr. Fanus Booyens het ook sy seën wense uitgespreek,” sê ‘n diep geraakte André. “Van besonderse betekenis was die pad wat ek met my kollegas en die regslui in diens van die Reg, Louis Trichardt en omgewing geloop het. Ek wil graag al die wonderlike en begaafde mense van die omgewing, insluitende my ondeunde en uiters bekwame personeel by CSVN Ingelyf, bedank. Die liefde en omhelsing van ons kliënte en die breër gemeenskap het die ware waardes in ons lewens bepaal en gerig. Deur dit alles het my baie stoute en eiesoortige vrou, Martie, en my kinders Marisa Naudé-Odendaal, Johesta Botha en André Naudé, sowel as hulle gades, my bygestaan en ondersteun deur dik en dun,” sê André. “Deur dit alles het die Almagtige Vader ons in sy hande gedra en styf teen sy bors vasgedruk. Hy het ons altyd gerig om geregtigheid in alles na te streef. “ CSVN verwelkom vir Mnr. Christoff Venter as vennoot en direkteur wat vanaf 3 Mei 2022 by die span aangesluit het. André bly vir ses maande aan in ‘n adviserende hoedanigheid, maar nie permanent nie. Hy gaan nie self meer konsulteer nie. Dan gaan hy voltyds boer op sy plase buite Thabazimbi, maar bly steeds permanent op sy plaas op die Bluegumspoortpad.

Zonia se lang stap wen vir haar R600 in prysgeld Kompetisie

Zonia Osborn se weninskrywing vir April. Die foto is geneem met haar Canon EOS 550D met 250 mm lens teen f7.1 teen 1/400 van ‘n sekonde op 400 ASA.

Ons streek se fotograwe het beslis ‘n oog vir ‘n goeie foto as gekyk word na die kwaliteit van inskrywings vir die Zoutpansberger se gewilde kalenderfotokompetisie. Die April-kompetisie het gesluit en ‘n wenner moes aangewys word. Die weninskrywing vir April het gekom van fotograaf Zonia Osborn. Haar wenfoto is dié van jagluiperds. Sy vertel dat sy op 11 Desember 2021 deelgeneem het aan ‘n interaktiewe staptog by die Mopane Bush Lodge. “Ná bykans drie ure se tracking met ‘n opsporingstoestel het ons op vier jagluiperds afgekom. Ons was skaars 100 m van die jagluiperd wyfie met haar drie ‘tieners’. Die foto is ‘n baie mooi uitbeelding van die tiener wat duidelik verveeld is met haar besorgde moeder in die agtergrond,” het Zonia gesê. Die foto is geneem met haar Canon EOS 550D met 250 mm lens teen f7.1 teen 1/400 van ‘n sekonde op 400 ASA. Baie geluk aan Zonia met haar weninskrywing, waarmee sy R600 wen. Anders as in die verlede kan die streek se amateur fotograwe vanjaar reg deur die jaar vir die koerant se kalenderfotokompetisie inskryf. Die inskrywings vir Mei is reeds oop. Fotograwe sal tot en met die laaste week van elke maand hulle foto’s vir daardie maand kan inskryf en ‘n wenfoto sal vir elk van die 12 maande gekies word. ‘n Maksimum van vyf foto’s per

fotograaf per maand kan ingestuur word, maar fotograwe kan vir meer as een maand inskryf. Oudergewoonte soek ons na daardie spesiale foto wat die uniekheid van die Soutpansberg-streek uitbeeld, van unieke landmerke en besienswaardighede tot die natuurlewe. Die foto moet egter binne die afgelope 24 maande geneem gewees het en moet die fotograaf se eie werk wees. ‘n Prys van R600 sal vir elke maand se wenfoto betaal word. Elke maand se wenfoto sal in die eerste week van die daaropvolgende maand se Zoutpansberger gepubliseer word. Slegs hoë-resolusie digitale foto’s (verkieslik landskap-formaat) sal aanvaar word. Die foto’s kan in hoë resolusie per e-pos (een vir een, indien nodig) gestuur word, of op CD of geheuestokkie ingehandig word by die kantore van die Zoutpansberger te Joubertstraat 16B in Louis Trichardt. Elke inskrywing moet vergesel wees van die fotograaf se naam, kontakbesonderhede, waar die foto geneem is en met watter kamera dit geneem is. Die 12 wenfoto’s sal aan die einde van die jaar in ‘n groot-formaat muurkalender vir 2023 saamgevat word. Die kalender sal dan onder meer deur die Zoutpansberger gebruik word vir bemarkingsdoeleindes. Vir meer inligting oor die kompetisie, skakel Andries by tel. 082 603 2419 of 015 516 4997 (tydens kantoorure). Hoë-resolusie foto’s kan ook aan hom gestuur word per e-pos na news@zoutnet.co.za.

Spesiale vermelding: Fotograaf Lesley Gaigher se sonsondergang wat sy van hul huis agter Mountain View Hotel afgeneem het. Die foto is geneem met ‘n Nikon Z6 met 135 mm met ‘n lensopening van f.2 teen 1/50 van ‘n sekonde op 640 ASA.

After a long break due to the restrictions brought about the worldwide Covid-19 pandemic, Parkrun South Africa has announced the restarting of their weekly events. Regarding this, Louis Trichardt’s weekly Parkrun will restart on Saturday, 7 May. A communique circulated to Parkrun members states that many may feel a bit nervous to restart. To ease fears, Parkrun South Africa urges organisers again to read through their Covid-19 framework that has

been supporting their 5km and junior events for some time now. They state that they will continue to operate under these guidelines until they are confident that removing them permanently has become appropriate. These guidelines include that all individuals taking part in the event must make sure that they are Covid-19 symptom-free before attending the event and that hand sanitisers must be used before and during the event. Scanning and timing must now be done using the Virtual Volunteer App, not the phys-
