Jela confirmed that a girl had been taken into the church building last week, but he could not remember when she was fetched. Jela said he had refused to enter the church because there was a chain on each pillar in the building and he was afraid they would hurt him. Therefore, he was allegedly chained to the bakkie wreck outside. Beetge said the police were not aware of ano- ther person being held against his or her will at the church, but that an investigation would follow. ‘Possessed’ girl chained at church Capt.

THEpower of socialmedia has givenrise to Qina Mfelokazi, an organisa-tion which aims to speak for thevoiceless in society.Qina Mfelokazi, meaning “Be

Strong Widow”, is an organisationformed in 2012 and made up of 60members from the Eastern Cape,KwaZulu-Natal and Swaziland.The widows met in Port Elizabeth

last Friday for a face-to-face groupsession at the Willows Resort.Theyheld their annual convention

with invited guests at the Daku Hallin Kwazakhele on Saturday.“We started this organisation as

Facebook friends who consoled oneanother during hard times and thoseof bereavement,” said the organisa-tion’s chaplain, the Reverend No-maphelo Myataza.AccordingtoMyataza, theydiscov-

ered that it was commonplace forwidows to facehard times, especiallyfrom in-laws and the society at large

after losing their spouses.“With our growing numbers, we

decided this should not end with justtalks.We formulated aworking docu-ment, fromwhich came our constitu-tion,” said Myataza.Myatazaadded that theywerehelp-

ing one another develop self esteemand purpose in life.Qina Mfelokazi argues that most

women lose everything, includingproperty, identity and dignity, afterlosing their better halves. It is asthough, to some, they are the reasontheir husbands are dead in the firstplace.“This becomes worse especially if

the widow is a young person. Thewoman needs guidance and advice,which is denied her most of the time,so we provide counselling on ourown,” said treasurer KhethokuhleMambokazi Mjadu.“Society has no place for widows.

Even the church treats them as out-

casts. A widow can’t be seen talkingto the priest privately, or she’ll befrownedupon and called names. Thiswas however, not the case with wid-owers,” said Sizakele Tshabalala, thegeneral secretary.“We are giving one another care

and support. We do home visits andonce a year, mostly during Women’sMonth, hold our convention.”Tshabalala said their other prob-

lem was young men (Ben 10s) whothought that after losing their hus-bands they needed them to spendtheir inheritance - if there was any.They all said, “We do not want Ben

10s. Away with Ben 10s. What wehave is for ourselves and our chil-dren.”Myataza thanked bishops Andile

Mbete and Mazantsi, Ward 20 coun-cillor BongoNombiba and the Rever-endGertrudeKomani, amongothers,for their contributions during theconvention. – NCEBA DLADLA

BATTLElineshavebeendrawnastheNelson Mandela Bay Cultural Festi-val holding company, Harmocept,have retained legal representation ina fight against the municipality aftertheirR7million contractwith themu-nicipalitywascancelleddaysafter thefestival had commenced.

According to legal papers by AndreVlokAttorneys,whichhavebeensentto themetromunicipality,Harmocept

is requesting that the metro providecertifiedcopiesoftheirminutes,mem-oranda and internal correspondenceof the sports, recreation, arts and cul-ture steering committee in relation totheir contract with the metro.The metro’s attorney, David Le

Roux, said themetrocancelled its con-tractwithHarmoceptwith immediateeffect on July 2, because:• The company failed to submit

monthly reports to the metro for theJanuary till May period with no ex-planation;

• Requests foramonthlymeetingbythe steering committee were ignored;• The company acted unilaterally

without involvement of the metro inthe implementation andarrangementof the event.Le Roux attorneys further say that

Harmocept breached their contractwhen they amended the agreedDevel-opment Implementation Plan of thesponsorship without municipal ap-proval.Harmocepthasalsobeenaccusedof

not meeting the 20 day deadline to

remedy its breach but rather Harmo-cept CEO Anele Mbasane threatenedexecutive director Noxolo Nqwazi.Harmocept through their attorneys

denied this, saying the cancellationwas unlawful.Vloksaidthemetro’s lettertoHarmo-

cept dated July 2, contained a largenumberofassertionswhichwereindis-pute. He said they had been instructedthatthemunicipality’sversionofeventswereinaccurateandthe record regard-ing the development of the projectshowed a very different set of facts.

.The metro pulled out of its part-nershipwith the festival in July daysbefore the festival was scheduled tocommence. International artist Ken-nyLatimoreand several othernation-alartists includingTheSoilandSouthAfrican Music Award winner Than-diswa had pulled out hours beforetheir concert on August 1 owing tonon payment by organisers. The festi-val managed an audience of only 5000in St George’s cricket stadium whichcan accomodate up to 19000 specta-tors.

THEY did it again: three armed women thatoverpower a man, force him to drink an uni-dentified potion, and then taking turns to rapehim.

Last Friday the three women gave an unsus-pecting hitchhiker (34) a lift in broad daylight(3pm) in Motherwell in the NU-10 area.

The modus operandi described is similar toseveral other cases that have occurred nation-wide since 2005 - the only difference is that the“rape-team” this time travelled in a Renaultand not in a BMW.

“Inside the car one of the women allegedlypointed a firearm at the man and forced himtodrinksomethingoutofabottle,”CaptainAn-dré Beetge, police spokesperson, said.

After the man drank the potion, the womenparked the car at bushes in the NU-29 area.Here the women took turns to rape the man.

“The women took the man’s semen and

forced him out of the car.”Aman (33) ofKwaZakhele, PortElizabeth, in

May this year reported a similar rape case, in-volving three armed women in a BMW.

Beetge declined to speculate why the semenwas stolen, but said the possibility that the twoincidents were related, are being investigatedas the same modus operandi was followed.

“Police also appeal to other men who havebeen raped in the same way, to come forwardandtoreport itat theirnearestpolicestations.”

Beetge said victims can remain anonymous,but it is important to report incidents so thatthe police can determine whether the two inci-dents are isolated cases.

)According to Express’s sister newspaper,Beeld, a similar incident was reported in 2005when a man (30) from Roodepoort was rapedin the same way by three women in a maroonBMW.

)Beeld again in 2008 reported about a man(53) that was raped the same way in Rusten-burg by three women in a black BMW.

PORT Elizabeth artists Luyanda “Lujaman”Masele and Ayanda “Slux” Febana have adreamthatcouldchangethefaceofNelsonMan-dela Bay townships.

The two music producers and performersfrom Motherwell, both recorded artists, com-mand respect in the hip hop/house and reggaemusic genres.

Starting in Motherwell, Masele and Febanawant to use township theatre to engage theirbrothersandsistersonabroaderscale,because,as they say, an idle mind is the devil’s play-ground.

Theyareplanningtoworkwithschoolsinact-ing isiXhosa and English set-works to help pu-pils understand them better.

They say that being born and bred in thetownship and learning various artistic skills,

including songwriting, scriptwriting, acting,film production and directing will put themin good stead in telling the untold townshipstories.

“We are an organised group wanting to tellour stories using drama, music and dance.There is somuch talent inNelsonMandelaBay,but it is unused,” Masele said.

“It is because of that unused energy that wesee so much crime, drug and alcohol abuse.”

Masele noted with sadness that St AlbansPrison was full of youngsters, especially fromMotherwell.

The two said they were excited about theprojectandwerehappytobeworkingwith localresidents.

Lujaman Masele started singing with SizweMatsolo, with whom he formed the group AK47

in 2005. They recorded a hot song, Lost Genera-tion,producedbyBongani “Skhotha”Tulwana,which enjoyed much airplay on national andcommunity radio stations and BayTV.

The song had a video which was also high onrotation.

Qualified filmandvideoproductiongraduateFebana, who is an animation and recording en-gineer who started his journey establishing theTicket Records Company with Vincent Frazerin 2006, went solo in 2008-2010 and performedaround George and other areas.

AWALMERtownship leadersaidhewasdisap-pointed and frustrated that the MEC for Hu-man Settlements, Helen Sauls-August, did notattend a scheduled meeting on Tuesday follow-ing a violent two-day service delivery protestthat left Walmer in chaos last week.

According to Walmer township leader Wan-dile Gxekwa, Sauls-August was expected to bepart of a delegation from provincial govern-mentwhichwas invitedby themetro topartici-pate in the talks with the townships leaders.

The meeting which was held behind closeddoors lasted five hours. It follows the unrest inWalmer which saw several busy streets closedby residents. During the second day of the pro-test, a squadrant of police fired rubber bulletsand teargas at 500 Walmer township residentswho stoned cars. Five people were arrested.

Gxekwa said the meeting was initially sup-posed to take place in Bisho and hours before

theywere scheduled for the long trip to the pro-vincial office, Municipal Human Settlementschair Nomvuselelo Tonsti informed them thattheBishodelegationwouldbearrivingat10am.“This just shows us that she does not care. I amvery disappointed with the provincial depart-ment because we told the municipality fromthe very beginning that we wanted someonewho can take decisions,” said Gxekwa.

Gxekwa said several resolutions were, how-ever, made during the meeting with the met-ro’sdelegation ledbyDeputyMayorBicksNdo-ni and Tonsti.

“The two small issues which we discussedwere the problems with infrastructure. Wehave massive holes in the ground which aredangerous and there are electric cables thatneed urgent attention.

“The bigger issue has to deal with housing.We had extensive discussions on housing and

we made it clear that we want interventions bynational government,” said Gxekwa.

Municipal spokesperson Mthubanzi Mnikihowever said the meeting was frank, honestand productive.

“The political leadership has instructed that

derway. “The EIA report is a positive sign butwhat we wanted was for the metro to write allof this in black and white. We were hoping fora date on when they would start building hous-es. All we can do now is to take these decisionsto thecommunity for themtodecideon thewayforward,” said Gxekwa. – LIZEKA TANDWA

COWAN High School pupils whotook part in a debate held in part-nership with Brand SA and Umhlo-bo Wenene FM on the youth’s rolesand responsibilities were praisedfor their language use, structure ofargument and understanding of to-day’s socio-economic politics.

Delivering the school’s public ad-dress system and six laptop com-puters bought with the R50 000prize money it won, Brand SA’sThoko Modise noted with admira-tion the pupils’ pure use of isiXho-sa, logical argument, voice projec-tion and show of good public speak-ing during the debate which washeld on June 16.Port Elizabeth-born Modise said

Brand SA was not only about mar-keting the country domestically

and internationally. It also had var-ious programmes which looked atthe glory and reputation of thisbeautiful country.“Within those we want to get in-

ward investment, tourism andtrade and industry involved to pro-mote pride and patriotism in thiscountry,” Modise said.They wanted South Africans to

know what the flag stood for, themeaning of the national anthemand what the days and symbols ofnational significance were about.The debate, which took place

against four other Port Elizabethschools, had been aimed at check-ing whether the youth understoodwhat freedom meant, that peoplehad died for it, their roles and re-sponsibilities, the country’s consti-tution and values to uphold, prob-lems they faced and to join the spir-it of active citizenry, through the

PlayYourPart Programme inmak-ing SouthAfrica a better place,Mo-dise said.Play Your Part is a national pro-

gramme run by Brand SAwith oth-er stakeholders and media part-ners to get young people involvedinmaking a change in the country.School principal Trevor Dolley

thanked Brand SA and UWFM forchoosing his school to take part inthe competition.He applauded pupils for remem-

bering their core values takenfrom the Bible, as they are a Chris-tian school.“This is something huge for the

school. We hope it will go fromstrength to strength. It is promot-ing Proudly South African and weare happy that you realised that ed-ucation is a main vehicle toachieve integration and social co-hesion,” Dolley said.

THE Foundation for Alcohol Re-lated Research (FARR), is cur-rently conducting the first everFoetal Alcohol Spectrum Disor-ders (FASD) research, in PortElizabeth.

The research project, which isconducted in schools in the Beth-elsdorp area and surrounds, willbe officially launched on Septem-

ber 9 which is InternationalFASD Day.TheNational DeputyMinister of

Social Development, HenriettaBokupane Zulu, has taken a per-sonal interest in FASD AwarenessandPreventionandwill be thekey-note speaker at the event.About 500 community mem-

bers, local stakeholders, roleplayers and leaders are invitedto the launch where the HealthyMother Healthy Baby Pro-

gramme, which will be imple-mented in the Bethelsdorp areaafter the launch, will be dis-cussed.This is one of the evidence-

based programmes developed byFARR, focusing on prevention.According to the Chief Execu-

tive Officer at FARR, Leana Oliv-ier, this type of research is im-portant because this illness dam-ages a child’s organs andprimary functions from a very,

very early stage - during preg-nancy. This condition is 100%preventable and irreversible.“The foundation was estab-

lished in 1997, and we train pro-fessional people in the earlyidentification, awareness, pre-vention and management ofFASD,” says Olivier.The results of the research will

be available by the end of 2015 orthe beginning of 2016.

. A Grade R teacher from Cra-

dock says they test children forFoetal Alcohol Syndrome by ask-ing them to touch their left earsby putting their right arms overtheir heads.If the child is not able to do so,

the child might be sufferingfrom Foetal Alcohol Syndrome,because children with this dis-ease have very small hands.She says they usually struggle

to focus, are very forgetful, andhave speech problems.

WITH transformation in rugby currentlysparking national debate, a group of formerSouth African players of colour will taketheir rightful place among their fellowSpringbokalumniattheMadibazBokBantergala event at the NMMU Indoor Sports Cen-tre on September 3.

The event, which takes place in the run-upto this year’s Rugby World Cup, will see anumberof rugby legendswithconnections totheuniversity sharing theirmemoriesof andpredictions for the international sportingtournament.Among them will be 86-year-old Harold

Wilson, who is honorary vice-president forlife of the South African Rugby Union, andthe manager of the 2007 Rugby World Cup-winning Springboks, Zola Yeye.The pair will lead a line-up of little known

national stars from the old Saru era that in-cludes Bernard Petersen, Newton Kennedyand Anton Arendse.AllareformerstudentsoftheoldUPE,later

NMMU, and all except administrative doyenWilson obtained national colours in the1980s.As a non-racial sporting body, the original

Saru kept itself independent of the “white”SA Rugby Board under Dr Danie Craven,which had its own separate developmentstructures and sub-unions.AsSarupresident,Wilsonwouldplayakey

role in the unity talks with Craven that sawthe two national unionsmerge at the start of

the new democratic dispensation.All Saru players were eventually awarded

their Springbok blazers around the turn ofthe millennium.“It was sentimental in a way, a great mo-

ment, but someof theguysdidn’t accept theirblazers,” said Madibaz sports manager Pe-tersen, who will don his green and gold forthe Bok Banter event.According to him, wings Kennedy and Ye-

ye and centre Arendse could all have madethe Springbok side had they been allowed tocompete on a level playing field.“These guys were stars in their own class

– theywere all outstanding players,” he said.WhilePetersen,KennedyandArendserep-

resented the formerEasternProvinceRugbyUnion,whichwas based at theAdcock Stadi-um, Yeye turned out for their rival districtbody KwaZakhele Rugby Union (Kwaru),whose home field was Dan Qeqe Stadium.At the Bok Banter, Petersen and the Saru

players will share the floor with other leg-endssuchasHennie leRoux,HannesMarais,Schalk Burger senior, Danie Gerber, GarryPagel,GarthWright andex-Blitzbokke coachPaul Treu.

WALMER High School won the Kay MotsepeProvincial School Competition last weekendafter beating OR Tambo District’s PangaleleSenior Secondary and took home R100 000prize-money.

They beat Pangalele 4-3 on penalties after afull time goalless draw.“Thiswas after intense competition between

the schools from seven districts of the prov-ince. All the schools were well prepared,” saidSASFA Eastern Cape Coordinator DumzaThys.TheWalmer High teamwill now participate

in the national finals of the SAFA football de-velopment tournament sponsored by the Mot-sepe Foundation and Sanlam.“We beat three schools on the way to the fi-

nal. The competition was tough and we playedto a 0-0 draw against Tsholomnqa High Schoolfrom Amathole District in the opening matchof the tournament,” saidanelated teammanag-er Lunga Lloyd.Lloyd cited named the experience of the

players, dedication and commitment to thegame as the reasons behind their success.Having taken part in the national champion-

ships of the same “WinnersTakeAll” competi-tion last year,where they ended as second run-ners-up, the players are focused knowing thatit is a do or die situation this time around.Lloyd also thanked their coach, community

member Bulelani Fina, who also coaches six ofthe players asmembers ofMotherwell’s YoungIdeas FC.Young Ideas was promoted recently to the

Kay Motsepe League, another SAFA Develop-ment initiative just below the National FirstDivision.“The competitionwas tough.Wehad to draw

fromour experience,” said teamcaptain Phila-sande Manzi (19), adding that playing at theirown pitch, they would not allow any team totake away their pride.An overjoyed school principal Lunga Dyani

congratulated theplayers for their sterlingper-formance against other formidable opposition.And, he was quick to add, “Our school al-

ways strive to do well because we are tryingto take away the mentality that if you comefrom a township school you can’t excel in pres-tige events, like this competition, againstschools with resources.”Dyani said his school combined learners’

sporting talents with academic excellence. Hesaid the prize would be used to live a legacy.
