Argument over cell phone

Girl beaten to death

Accused: Ntsutsheko Baloyi.W/O Kedibone Mabatha looks on, while a family member, Mr Million Mthombeni, points at the scene where his niece was attacked and killed. The deceased, Miss Khavisani Mthombeni (19).

By Peter Muthambi

Residents of the small village of Shamin-yami in the Njakanjaka area experi-enced a huge shock last Wednesday, when a 19-year-old girl was allegedly attacked and beaten to death by her boyfriend.

According to the police, it is alleged that Ntsutsheko Baloyi (19) attacked his girlfriend, Khavisani Mthombeni, over a cell phone. Khavisani was coming from a local church when the alleged attack took place. He apparently took her cell phone after the incident.

W/O Kedibone Mabatha of the police at Waterval said that the police had arrested Baloyi the day after the incident. He con-fi rmed that when Baloyi was arrested, he was found in possession of the victim’s cell phone.

“The incident happened just next to the victim’s home. Neighbours said that they had only heard a scream from the victim, saying she was being attacked,” he said.

Mabatha added that they had opened a murder case, but that their investigations were continuing. Baloyi appeared in the Waterval Regional Court and the case was postponed to Friday, 6 July (today). He

remains in custody.Khavisani was a Grade 11 pupil at

Marholeni High School. The victim’s uncle, Mr Million Mthombeni, said that the family was greatly saddened about their niece’s death. “We are very angry. She was not supposed to die like that. This is very bad and has traumatized the whole family,” he said.

Mthombeni added that he wanted to see justice take its course. “Somebody must pay here,” he said.

Baloyi is a Grade 12 pupil at Hluvuka High School in the nearby Nkuzana vil-lage.

Much needed revamp for several Bochum schools

International aloe indaba at Blyde Canyon

Challenges of the youth highlighted on Youth Day

A brand new school hall, paved school grounds and a new water irrigation sys-tem are some of the things that schools in Kawene, Tlhakauma and Tefu in the Bochum area are planning to do with their R12 000 Cashbuild building material vouchers.

This follows after vouchers to the amount of R96 000 were presented to eight schools in the area during the recent opening of the Cashbuild Bochum store. The vouchers were prizes in the Cashbuild Art-at-Heart competition.

The competition required pupils from each school to submit their best artwork to Cashbuild. This artwork was displayed at the ceremony and then now remain on

Delinquency, unemployment, poor access to quality basic education and information are the main challenging issues facing the youth of today.

This is according to a non-governmental or-ganisation (NGO), the Mphephu Ndilo-Muthathe community development organisation.

This NGO organised a youth gathering at Mphephu Secondary School three weeks ago to commemorate Youth Day and to address challenges facing the youth in the Nzhelele area.

The treasurer of the organisation, Ms Rabelani Phophi, said the aim of the event was to celebrate the country’s history, while at the same time explor-ing the challenges facing the youth of today. “It is events like these which will help our youth today realise their dreams and stay away from alcohol and drug abuse,” she said. She added that most young people ignore the importance of Youth Day and spend it drinking alcohol instead of addressing the real issues.

The chairperson of the organisation, Mr Ethuel Khwilimba, said the solution to those challenges could only be resolved by the youth themselves. He said they had invited different motivational

speakers from various institutions to motivate the youth. “We invited those speakers to re-mind them that it is no longer acceptable to just complete their quali-fications. They need to be entrepreneurially minded to succeed and to overcome these chal-lenges,” he said.

M e a n w h i l e , t h e chairperson of COSAS (Congress of South Af-rican Students) in the Nzhelele region, Martin Makhokha, said their organisation wanted the government to build

computer centres in all schools in the region to ensure access to quality education in the rural areas. “Our local municipality should negotiate with private entities such as Vele

Mine to assist. Businesses like this one should get

involved in projects like these and it will ensure quality basic education,” said Makhokha.

A delegation from the Tshilidzini Uniting Reformed Church recently arrived back from a study visit to Germany. The group of 15 comprised representatives from the different ministries in the church and visited the mother church in Hamburg. The leader of the delegation, Rev Anderson Maqwira, said the group also visited several places of historical significance. The group spent nine days in Germany. Here the group is seen at the church´s headquarters in Hamburg.

Sixty scientists, horticultural-ists, and dedicated enthusiasts from 12 countries - as far apart as the United States and Aus-tralia - recently got together at the Blyde Canyon Forever Resort for the Inhlaba Indaba.

The conference venue was per-fectly chosen for them to indulge in their passion for aloes. The Inhlaba Indaba is the first ever dedicated conference on aloes, and had been organised by the South African National Biodi-versity Institute (SANBI) and the Succulent Society of South Africa (SSSA).

Prof Gideon Smith, director of SANBI, said that the whole of South Africa was a plant para-dise, with twice as many species as continental Europe, and the same number of species as the United States, despite being only

a seventh of its size.The opening lecture by Prof

Braam van Wyk of the Univer-sity of Pretoria focussed on the natural history of aloes. Their distribution in the world shows the typical Gondwanaland pat-tern – from the days when the continents had not yet drifted apart – and aloes occur in South-ern, Eastern, and North-Eastern Africa, as well as in Madagascar and Saudi Arabia. The plants have been known and used for 2 000 years and were first men-tioned by Pliny the Elder in the first century AD. Their medicinal and nutritional value is well known, and they are also of great interest to horticulturalists. Aloes are among the few native plants on which proper breeding work has been done.

Ronell Klopper from SANBI

gave the audience more fascinat-ing information about aloes of the world.

There are some common fea-tures, such as succulent leaves and tubular flowers, but the variation is enormous. There are about 600 taxa (this includes both species and subspecies), and the number increases continuously. Aloes are used in both traditional and modern medicine. The classi-cal use was as ‘blood cleansing’ – in other words as a laxative/purgative – in the days when food was poor and caused diges-tive problems. The bitter taste in the mouth stimulates the flow of gastric juices and improves digestion – this is known as the ‘amarum effect’, similar to the gin and tonic which stimulates your appetite before a meal.

display in the Cashbuild store for the next five years. The artwork was

judged and three winners from each school were named.

Winners received Cashbuild Art-at-Heart gold, silver and bronze certificates for first, second and third places respec-tively. The Manager’s Choice award was also presented to the lucky winner, Dicoyane Dumisani, for the artwork competition.

Since the Art-at-Heart campaign was launched 10 years ago, Cashbuild has helped more than 1 200 schools with over R12-million worth of building ma-terials. Cashbuild is BEE compliant and every time a store is opened, relocated or refurbished, Cashbuild not only makes donations to local schools, but also creates

jobs for community members.Ms MR Nkoama, principal of Tefu

Primary, is very happy: “We don’t have a school hall and, because of Cashbuild’s generosity, we are going to build one.” Mrs MS Madiope, principal of Tlhakauma Primary, says: “Our school is in a rural area - when it rains, the water runs all over the school, which is why we would like to pave the school grounds, using our voucher.” Mr PA Makgato, the principal of Kawene Primary, is concerned about the water irrigation at his school. He said: “We have a very old school and no water tanks, so we are planning to build a water tank as soon as possible to improve condi-tions for our pupils.”

Firebreaks for KNP

Church celebrates

Water shortage “soon a thing of the past”

This dry season, the Kruger National Park (KNP) should be safe from runaway veld fires, at least from the Mozambican border’s side, as Working on Fire (WoF) carries out a six-week project to establish a firebreak all along this part of the KNP’s border.

“We are burning a 300km-long, 50m-wide fire-break all along Kruger’s eastern boundary,” says WoF’s ground operations manager for the area, Bongani Nhlabathi.

Two WoF teams, from Nelspruit and Waterval Boven, are working on this operation. One team started at the top part of the border with Mozam-bique, working their way down, while the other started from the bottom up, from Crocodile Bridge, at the same time, on 22 June, according to Bongani.

Each WoF team consists of 25 firefighters, both men and women, who were previously unem-ployed. WoF is a government-funded, job-creation programme focusing on integrated fire management in South Africa. According to www.workingonfire.org, WoF firefighters are trained in fire awareness and education, prevention and fire suppression skills. These men and women form veld and for-est firefighting ground crews and are stationed at bases around the country to help stop the scourge of wildfires. WoF wildland firefighting crews are typically called to assist at potentially catastrophic local wildfires, as well as nationally, when local firefighting resources are stretched to the limit. For this reason, many of the WoF bases are estab-lished in partnership with organisations such as SANParks, CapeNature and district municipalities. Outside the fire season, the base partners will utilise the crews in fire prevention interventions, such as the cutting of firebreaks. (Article and photo: LiN News / Kruger2Canyon)

The Good Hope Centre in Sibasa of the Apostol-ic Faith Mission of Africa, which had a humble beginning in 2004 and today boasts more than 300 members, celebrated its eighth year of excel-lent service to the community a fortnight ago.

Among the guests were Vho-Thovhele Gole Mp-haphuli, AFM Zoutpansberg regional chairperson, Dr Mackson Maanzwane, many traditional leaders, pastors from different churches and community members.

The celebration took place in the Bergvlam Primary School Hall in Sibasa.

Pastor Job Mudau, the current resident pastor, said that, through the grace of God, they managed to achieve many great things over the years. “We had very humble beginnings. It started as a prayer session for families in the vicinity, but today we can look back with pride at the strides we have made. We will soon be moving to our new site, where a big church is to be built,” said Mudau.

Vho-Thovhele Gole Mphaphuli said traditional leadership had always been associated with God and it made him happy to see that today’s church was following in the tradition. ”We as the tradi-tional leaders need the prayers from our subjects. When people turn to God in their numbers, we have peace in our communities, and we commend the contribution you are making to our communi-ties,” he said.

Dr Mackson Maanzwane urged those gathered to support their leaders. “Leadership is about com-mitment and how you relate to people. Be ready to work under pressure and be ready to absorb pain,” he said.

The portfolio head of corporate services at the Vhembe District Municipality, Cllr Lucas Manyuha, has promised that the shortage of water in Louis Trichardt, Sinthumule, Kutama and other areas will soon be over.

Manyuha addressed a media conference on behalf of the executive mayor, Cllr Tshitereke Matibe, at the Tshipise Aventura resort last Friday.

Manyuha said that he was aware that Makhado town (Louis Trichardt) was currently experiencing

a water shortage. He promised that, with the amount of R401 million the Vhembe District Municipality has set aside for water projects, the problem will soon be over.

“We have also set aside an additional R384m for operational costs and maintenance,” he added. According to him, the ageing infrastructure was an obstacle in their commitment to providing quality water to the communities they serve. “Our municipality has also made R40 million available to maintain the old infrastructure,” said Manyuha.

“Currently we have projects that are up and running, connecting water pipes from the Nandoni Dam to the affected areas. By the end of July, a tender will be advertised for the connection of water pipes from Valdezia to the Makhado Water Project.”

He also mentioned that an amount of R26m has been set aside to address the sanitation backlogs in the communities.

The departments of water, en-vironmental and mining affairs have been criticized by United Nations World Heritage Commit-tee (UNESCO) experts for putting coal mining ahead of the protec-tion of the 1 100-year-old Mapun-gubwe World Heritage Site.

This was revealed in an unfavour-able draft report on Mapungubwe and its future world heritage status during UNESCO’s 36th annual sit-ting in St. Petersburg in Russia last week. Mapungubwe is one of eight South African World Heritage sites that are protected by an international convention because of its “outstand-ing universal value”.

The report, among other things, warned that the opencast coal min-ing by Australian mining giant CoaL of Africa Limited (CoAL) poses a “major threat” to the integrity of Mapungubwe and could result in “unacceptable and irreversible damage” to huge strips of land in the vicinity.

According to the report, a UNES-

CO investigation team visited the area during January this year and was shocked at how big the Vele mine was. This team included Mr Lazare Eloundou, chief of the Afri-can unit of UNESCO’s World Heri-tage Centre, and Mr Dag Avango, a history researcher from the Swedish Royal Institute of Technology. They noted, with concern, that the Depart-ment of Minerals and Energy had al-ready authorised more than 20 other mine prospecting leases for coal, petroleum and gas in the Soutpans-berg area, and that the government appeared to have ignored previous pleas to put the mining on hold by quietly giving CoAL the go-ahead.

Eloundou and Avango further noted that the world committee had asked the government to put a hold on further mining development until a more thorough heritage impact as-sessment was compiled. They were, as a result, very surprised to find that the Vele mine was already 95% complete at the time of their visit.

Eloundou and Avango stated that

it was “crystal clear” that CoAL had resumed its operations and stock-piled large volumes of coal. The monitoring team claimed that they had been presented with evidence that the only reason CoAL was using the more damaging opencast mining method was to save money.

In addition to urging CoAL to revert to underground mining, the team also submitted a draft recom-mendation urging the government to halt any further opencast coal min-ing in the Soutpansberg-area. The team also requested the Department of Environmental Affairs (DEA) to submit a copy of its integrated management plan and an updated report on the state of conservation at Mapungubwe for review by 1 February next year.

Eloundou and Avango said they were not happy about the fact that the government did not have a proper buffer zone around Ma-pungubwe and recommended a seven-kilometre buffer zone around Mapungubwe.

Environmental, water and mining affairs criticized by Unesco over Vele MineIn the meantime, the DEA

confirmed in a press release last Thursday that they had taken note of the concerns and

recommendations of UNES-CO and remained “committed to working with the committee in ensuring effective imple-

mentation of the convention, and will be co-operating to provide further information.”

The Kopano disabled agricul-tural project in Sekhukhune was adjudged the top producer for the national and export markets at the recent Young Aspirant Farmers of the Year awards of the Limpopo Department of Agriculture.

For their efforts, the farmers participating in the project re-ceived R150 000 in prize money from Mr Jacob Marule, the MEC for Agriculture, at an event at the Ranch hotel.

Country Fresh Eggs of the Mopani district walked away with R120 000 as the second-best pro-ducer and Lebapankwet Trading of Capricorn was third.

In the category for top producer for the informal markets, Ditlou le Dinare of Waterberg won the first prize, with Koekie Scholtz of Vhembe second and Aubrey Lehlogonolo of Sekhukhune in third place.

The top producer for household consumption was the Ditsepu farm-ing project of Freddy Sekgobela of

Mopani, with Tshwarella ka Thata of Waterberg second and Khutso Tladi of Sekhukhune in third place.

Motlalaohle Secondary of the Capricorn district won the category for best secondary school, with Tshitwa of Vhembe second and Dimpe of Waterberg third. Shon-goane Primary of Waterberg won in the category for primary schools, with Leleni from Mopani second and Hlauwelekani of Vhembe third.

The prize money ranged from R10 000 to R150 000, and all the prize winners were adamant that the money received from the depart-ment would be used to expand their operations and to take them towards becoming commercial farmers.

Mr Donald Sekwati, chairperson of the Kopano disabled project, said the project was started in 2009 by a group of young people living with disabilities in Sekhukhune. The project operates on 178 ha. They grow vegetables such as cabbage, butternuts, green beans and beetroot and supply these to big companies. - Limpopo News Service

Chief Ntikedzeni Muraga-Mphaphuli of Ha Muraga outside Thohoyandou said the inauguration of headman Ramaphege Netshianzwane was a tra-ditional mandate and a contribution to the cultural rebirth of the Muraga people.

Muraga was speaking during the in-auguration of the headman at the local sport grounds of Tshianzwane in Muraga

at the weekend. He was installed amidst cultural fanfare during a function that was attended by traditional leaders from the surrounding villages under Mphaphuli, leader of the UACC, Bishop MM Miriri, local businesspeople who supported the ceremony and many community members.

The local traditional leader, Chief Ntikedzeni Muraga-Mphaphuli, who officiated, said the position of headman

became vacant after the passing away of Netshianzwane’s father, Tsumbedzo Ra-maphege Netshianzwane, in 1985. Since then, there had not been a replacement.

“We are following tradition. Headmen form a very important part in traditional leadership. As chief I cannot see all that is happening in the village. The headmen are our eyes and inform us of everything that happens on the ground. He will be

of great use to us and the community,” Chief Ntikedzeni Muraga-Mphaphuli said.

V h a k o m a V h o Nemadandila Mudau told the new headman to work tirelessly for the benefit of his people.

In response, the new-ly installed Netshian-zwane said he would remain a subject to his chief. “Our installation means a lot and is a challenge. We have to work extra hard for de-velopment in our area, and this we cannot do alone,” he said.

Wage hike for taxi and hospitality sectors

Two Makhado residents to participate in international indigenous games abroad

The Sibasa Regional Court sentenced house-breaker Phathutshedzo Maduka to 16 years imprisonment last week.

Maduka (20) of Makwarela has been linked to two housebreakings in the Makwarela area. During the trial, the court heard that between April and May 2010, Maduka broke a window and burglar door at Makwarela and stole a DVD player, a hifi-set and two speakers.

The stolen items were recovered on 13 May 2010.The second housebreaking took place on 29 April 2010 when Maduka forced a door open at Makwarela and entered the house in the presence of the owner.

The owner screamed and Maduka ran away with a plastic container, eggs and hifi-speakers.

Employees in the taxi and hos-pitality industry are smiling from ear to ear, following an announcement of a rise in the minimum wage in their sectors.

The Department of Labour recently announced an improved increment countrywide, effective from 1 July.

The current minimum wage in the hospitality sector for employ-ers with more than 10 employees is R2 323.87 per month, while employers with fewer than 10 employees are paying a mini-mum wage of R2 084.52.

Morgan Mokwana, assistant director in the department in Limpopo, said this round of increments would see employers with more than 10 employees

hiking their wages to R 2495.80 per month and those with fewer paying R 2240.60 per month.

He said the increments would see taxi drivers raking in wages amounting to R 2449.90 per month, the same amount that will be received by administra-tion workers.

“A giant leap from the pre-vious year’s R 2160 per month,” said Mokwana.

He said rank marshals will pocket R 231.40 more from their previous R1728.80 per month. Other employees within the sector, who are not elsewhere specified, will see an increase from the previous R1 512.03 per month to a minimum wage of R1 713.70 per month.

Mokwana said if an employer required an employee to sleep over at a place other than where the employee resided, the em-ployer must either pay the em-ployee the amount of R 279.93 per night or arrange accommoda-tion for the employee.

Mr Albert Tshidavhu, head of the department in the province, said the inspectorate would randomly do spot checks at af-fected workstations to monitor if the increments were put into practice.

“If employers are found not to be complying with these amend-ments, they must be ready to face the full might of the law. Com-pliance is for the benefit of both employers and employees, there-

What is regarded as a local sport by the local communities, mufuvha, is now recognised globally.

This was proven after two residents of Makhado Munici-pality jetted off to Russia to participate in the International Indigenous games. The two, Ms Lutendo Khurumedzha and Walter Ramphaga, were bidden farewell by the mayor of the Makhado Municipality, Cllr David Mutavhatsindi.

They will compete with people from other international countries

in mufuvha, a local traditional game.

The trip came after the two Makhado residents had out-classed other competitors during a recent national tournament, held in Johannesburg.

Ramphaga could not contain his excitement.

He said he felt proud to par-ticipate in the games at an inter-national level.

“This tournament will be pro-moting indigenous games glob-ally and that’s an honour for me” he said.

Kurumedzha, who shared the sentiments, added that she would represent the country well during the games.

Mayor Mutavhatsindi said the municipality was very proud of the two, because indigenous games played an essential role in preserving culture.

“This will also put our mu-nicipality on the map interna-tionally,” he added. He also mentioned that the municipality had recently set aside R70 000 for the indigenous games in the 2012/13 budget.

fore it is a must. This is why we have competent and capable person-nel at labour centres to assist them when they encounter challenges,” said Tshidavhu.

The news has been well received by those in the sectors. Mr Ma-funisa Mudau, a taxi driver in the Thohoy-andou area, said it was good that the depart-ment was also looking after the needs of those in the industry.

“We welcome the move by the department to improve our wages and working conditions, but the issue at hand is whether the employers will adhere to the rules or not. There should be strict enforcement and monitoring, otherwise there shall not be any change,” he said.

Disabled musician honoured

Crime

Man in regional court for murderA man appeared in the Tshil-wavhusiku Regional Court in connection with a murder, which occurred on 2 June last year at Madodonga in the Kutama area.

Donald Masidwali appeared in court on 21 June. He is accused of stabbing the 23-year-old Jim Si-mango of Madodonga. According to the police statement, Simango was stabbed below the left breast with a

knife and bled profusely. He was left lying on his back in the street, while the accused allegedly ran away. The deceased’s brother, Mr John Sithole, had alerted the police and further informed them that the deceased was allegedly killed by Donald Ma-sidwali. The motive of the murder is not known yet, and the case was postponed to 15 August for witnesses to testify.

The disabled Gideon Mamutha-mani, aka Killah Gee, who launched a successful music career against all odds, was finally honoured by his community.

Mamuthamani (30) of Tshifulanani Fhasi Ha Bada, whose debut album Amakritza sold many copies and introduced him to the music industry, was recently honoured during a soccer tournament held at the Tshifulanani Stadium. Teams from the surrounding villages took part in the tournament. Winning teams and individual play-ers went home with prizes ranging from soccer kits to trophies and gold

Plain Truth➡ The quest for morality

George Eliot once said: “I like not only to be loved, but to be told that I am loved; the realm of silence is large enough beyond the grave”. One way of telling your partner that you love her or him is to develop the art of listening when he or she speaks.

Here are a few tips that need to be considered to improve your relationship, especially the area of communication, namely:

• Realize that each of you has a basic need to be listened to. It is im-portant to note that communication is not one-way traffic where only one of the two must be listened to. It does not matter how talkative you are, but you must also give space to your spouse to talk as you listen tohim/her.

• Listen intently when your part-ner is talking to you. Do not just think about answers to give or do it out of politeness without really pay-ing attention to details. Listening is more than politely waiting your turn to speak or answer the other person.

• Listen objectively without being clouded by your past communica-tion with the person. Put down your newspaper, turn off your television, look your partner straight in the eye as a sign that shows that you are really paying attention to what is being said.

• Reach out and care about what is being said. Do not listen out of sympathy but wholeheartedly, with an attitude to want to understand what the other person is saying with-out judging that person. Listening

is active participation, not passive observance.

• Move past the surface message and get to the heart of what is be-ing said. Listening is more than the hearing of words. You need to ask the most important question: “Am I hearing you correctly?” Try to understand what is being said.

• Discipline yourself to listen. Listening does not want a person who is not focused or who is not relaxed. It does not come naturally or easily to any of us.

Most of us struggle to listen to the other person, especially when you are tired or strained at work. Most of us are more comfortable when we are in control and speaking and not when we are listening.

The Mugororwane Primary School (Sinthumule) received a joint sponsorship from Xpress Network Solutions and Vonitel Radio in Makhado for a Wi-Fi internet connection and wireless desktop phone, for Internet connectivity and voice communication to assist in the education of the school’s pupils. These two companies strongly believe that Internet connectivity and voice communication are absolute necessities for any school to gather information.

medals. The coordinator of

the tournament, Mr Sol-omon Nethonzhe, said the extraordinary work that Killah Gee was doing in the develop-ment of the arts among the youth in his village could not be underes-timated.

“’This man is dis-abled, but did not let his disability become a stumbling block to-wards self-fulfillment. He rose to become a well-known musician, despite the odds against him. He also has time for the youth in his vil-lage, be it teaching them music, education or oth-er developmental initia-tives, he has always been there for them.”

According to Nethonze, the com-munity is indebted to him, and “we felt it would be appropriate to honour him during the month of the youth. He has inspired many youths and has been a role model to many,” he said. Mamuthamani, who recently released his third album, Mamuthamoney, said he was humbled to be honoured by his community. “We mostly receive accolades from outside, while our communities turn a blind eye to our achievements. It is very encouraging to be recognised by one’s community and this will go a long way in motivat-ing others,” he said.

Happy music man Killah Gee says it is good to be recognised by his community.

Traditional dances at Benny’s

Mashudu Sathuma to lead the Tshivhilidulu Civic

The Benny’s Care grounds at Tshiozwi were abuzz during the Soutpansberg cluster final of the arts and culture competition a fortnight ago.

Primary and secondary schools par-ticipated in tshigombela, tshikhamba, kiba, nanga, malende and ntshongolo dancing.

Mr Nkhelebeni Mudau, chair-person of the Soutpansberg cluster arts and culture committee, said that for the community to win its battle against negative behaviour, they must respect their elders, including traditional leaders. He added that

participating in sports promoted good moral values. According to him, the Department of Education presented an opportunity for young people of different standings in society to come together. “...and this has educational value. If we lose our tradition, we lose our values,” he said.

He encouraged the youth to show dignity and respect to their grand-parents and urged young people and community members to value and appreciate the good work which was done by the elderly.

The district final will be held on the 26 and 27 July at Mutale.

A well-known football referee, Mr Mashudu Sathuma, was re-elected chairperson of the Tshivhilidulu Civic Association during a gen-eral meeting held at the local chief’s kraal last Sunday morning.

Mr Elijah Mungoma is the deputy chairperson, while Mr Nkhoyeni Ratshiedana was re-elected into his previous position of general secretary. Ms Londy Nematoka will assist Ratshiedana. Mrs Margaret Netshivhilidulu will serve her second term as treasurer.

The heads of the various departments were also elected. They are: Messrs Edward Kholopha, Naledzani Mugali, Eric Netshivhilidulu, Jeremiah Dzhanzhi, Rabelani Netshikweta and Thabelo Khakhu and Mesdames Elinah Sivhugwana and Selina Ramasunzi.

In an interview, Chairperson Sathuma mentioned that the heads of the departments would be allo-cated their respective portfolios during a meeting that will be held in few day’s time. He added that the supply of water in the area is one of the items high on their priority list. He indicated that there are no water taps in the area, saying residents only relied on fountains for water.

He also stated that the municipality only sup-plied them with a water tanker once a week. He further indicated that although the area has been electrified, some households were still without electricity. That, according to him, is fast becom-ing a burning issue, since firewood is a scarce

commodity in the area. He reiterated the fact that the local roads are in an appalling condition, saying it became more difficult for residents when they had to make funeral arrangements. He also indicated that there are no sports facilities in the area.

Unlike in many areas where civic

associations are always at logger-heads with the local traditional lead-ers, the situation is totally different at Tshivhiludu. According to Sathuma, his civic association enjoys full sup-port from the local traditional leader, Vhamusanda Vho- Azwifaneli Net-shivhilidulu.

Selfless TT laid to restAt his funeral, a former general manager for corporate services at the Vhembe District Mu-nicipality, Thinandavha Thomas Nyathela, was hailed as a selfless person who had dedicated his life to the development of the community.

The Vhembe District Mayor, Cllr Tshitereke Matibe, described Nyathela, better known as TT, as one of the most committed em-ployees of the municipality. He addressed mourners during the funeral service at Nyathela’s home village of Khwekhwe, Ha-Mutsha, on Saturday.

Nyathela passed away on June 21, following a vehicle accident on the Thohoyandou-Makhado road. Hundreds of mourners gathered at an open ground and braved the very cold weather in order to pay their

last respects to Nyathela, who was also hailed as a dedicated member of the ANC. Born on January 1966 at Beaufort, Levubu, Nyathela’s good life was also decorated with educational qualifications like a master’s degree in business ad-ministration from Potchefstroom University, a master’s in develop-ment and management from the North-West University and a mas-ter’s in know ledge and information management from the University of Stellenbosch. He was chairperson of several bodies, among them of the Khwe vha Commercial School governing body, the Sadtu Vuwani branch, the Vhuronga I circuit excellence awards committee, the Vhembe District culture of learn-ing and teaching committee and of the Northern Transvaal English Language Teachers Association.

15 Years in jail for raping daughter-in-law

Agric MEC encourages youth to take up farming

A resident from Dongamuzi village outside Beit Bridge, who had indecently assaulted and raped his daughter-in-law under the mistaken belief that he was fulfilling a custom, has been jailed for 15 years.

The man, aged 47, pleaded guilty to three counts of indecent assault and one count of rape and was convicted by Regional Magistrate Dambudzo Malunga last Thursday.

When asked why he had com-mitted the offence, the man told the court that he was fulfilling a custom, as his father had also slept with his wife.

Asked if the daughter in-law (18) had consented to the act, the man said she had not.

The prosecutor, Mr Bheki Tshabalala, told the court that in February this year, the man’s son left for South Africa to look for employment. He left his wife

in the custody of his parents and, during the month, the man pro-posed sex to his daughter-in-law, but was turned down. He pro-ceeded and fondled her breasts. She did not report the incident.

Later on the same day, the daughter-in-law left the home-stead to fetch water and her father-in-law followed her. He made advances towards her, but was turned down once again. The daughter-in-law later made a report to her mother-in-law, who reprimanded her husband.

During March he fondled her breasts again and one day he found her bending down while washing some dishes. He ap-proached her from behind and grabbed her private parts. She ran away and made a report to his wife, who in turn reprimanded him.

On 16 April, the mother-in-law left her homestead, going

to a neighbour’s homestead to assist with the harvesting of some ground nuts and left the husband, daughter-in-law and five children behind.

During lunch time, the com-plainant went to serve her father-in-law his food and, as she knelt down to give him his food, he fondled her breasts, forcing her to run out of his sleeping hut where he was seated. Thinking that her father-in-law had left the home-stead, she went into the sleeping hut to collect the plates and, as soon as she entered the door, the man, who was hiding behind the door stark naked, pounced and threw her onto the bed.

He forcibly removed her pant-ies and raped her once, but she kept struggling until she managed to free herself and ran out of the hut, leaving her panties behind.

She reported the matter to the police and the man was arrested.

The MEC for Agriculture, Mr Jacob Marule, has urged newly qualified farmers to go all out to make a meaning-ful contribution in their communities.

Marule gave a congratulatory message to young farmers who completed a learn-ership programme at the Madzivhandila College of Agriculture. This was during a certificate ceremony held at the college’s main hall on Thursday.

The 19 learnership recipients success-fully completed Level 2 in animal and plant production.

Their certificate ceremony was also at-tended by many officials from the Depart-ment of Agriculture, parents of the farmers

and a representative from the Mphaphuli Royal Council.

Marule said it was embarrassing to find that most of the food that could be produced locally was rare to find and was imported from overseas countries. He said he was also discouraged in one farmers’ meeting where he only found elderly people, which showed that the youth were not actively participating in agriculture.

“We are happy and inspired that we still have youths like you who are now equipped to face the modern world of agriculture. This is not enough. Do not stop here, but continue studying to keep up with modern farming trends,” he said.

He also announced that Madzivhandila College will soon be transformed to in-clude modern technology.

“We are going to make this institution accessible to all, even by people without education. Those who will complete two years here will be accredited by a univer-sity. By so doing, we will be doing our bit to develop agriculture in our country,” he said.

College principal Ms Musandiwa Tshisikule said the latest batch trained as farmers who are involved in land reform programmes in their areas.

Masethemane Windy Kgatle received an award for being the best student.

Zimbabwean and South African police at the Beit Bridge Border Post have arrested 28 alleged criminals, among them smugglers and notorious armed robbers, operating in bushy areas along the Limpopo River.

Local police spokesperson Chief Supt Law-rence Chinhengo said the suspects were arrested

between Monday and Thursday last week, during a joint border operation along the Limpopo River. “Among those arrested, five are known serial armed robbers. Twelve of the 28 have since been convicted and sentenced to between five and 10 years in jail,” he added.

“We also rounded up several touts operating at the border post where they swindle unsuspecting travellers of their money by masquerading as bor-der officials and clearing agents,” he said.

Chinhengo mentioned that the operation was aimed at “restoring sanity along the border. We are aware that there are some criminals who commit crimes in either Zimbabwe or South Africa and then flee to either of those countries. Crime knows no international boundary,” he said.

The criminal hot spots include Dulibadzimu Gorge, farms and villages along the borderline and the bushy area near the Limpopo River spillway. Chinhengo said the exercise followed after concerns were raised by local residents and travellers over a surge in criminal activities around the border area.

In May, police from the two countries also conducted a similar exercise during which they nabbed 82 suspects, mostly criminals who were on the wanted list for crimes such as armed robbery, rape and murder.

They recovered machetes, axes, iron bars and knives, which had been used in committing the offences.

According to a Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) report, an average of 16 border jumpers are being raped and robbed every month as they cross into the neighbouring country through undesignated entry points illegally. MSF has established sexual and gender-based violence clinics in the border towns of Musina and Beit Bridge.

They mainly target in-transit truck drivers, com-mercial sex workers and sexually abused irregular migrants seeking STI treatment, trauma counsel-ling, tetanus, HIV and Aids tests and anti-retroviral post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP).

Vha-Makhandzi to perform in California

Mass Computer Training supports charity

Thahari village’s dark days are over

Pfanana Mpheho, well known as Vha-Makhan-dzi, will soon jet off to California in the USA where she will perform several times.

She is extremely popular, not only in Limpopo, but also in the rest of South Africa and even abroad. She recently released her latest album, Tshilonda tshi do fhola, which means “this wound will heal”. The album was influenced by experiences in her Mass Computer Training and

FET, which has assisted com-munities on countless occa-sions, once more endeared itself to the people when it donated money, clothes and medals to a welfare organisation.

The college, which has cam-puses all over Limpopo, donated R6 000, clothes and medals to Fhatalushaka Home-based Care and Old Age.The organisation looks after the welfare of the elderly in Tshivhambe village and surrounding areas. The or-ganization was preparing to host a fun walk and sports day for the elderly, but did not have anything

to motivate the elderly to par-ticipate until the college came to their rescue. The handing over of the cash and the other items took place at the college’s head office in Thohoyandou on Tuesday.

College director Collen Nthan-geni said the elderly had a special place in his heart. “We have as-sisted our community in many different ways, but of late we are focusing on our elderly.” Nthangeni said the elderly should not be left to feel alone and neglected. “Let us try and keep them busy to keep boredom away from them. This will also serve as an exercise that will help improve

their health,” he added.M s M u s a n d i w a M u s h -

avhanamadi, chairperson of the organisation, said they had an idea to stage a sports day for the elderly, but did not have anything to offer them on the day of the event.

“Elderly people eat on time and they must have some drinks ready during the tournament. We are now going to have some refreshments for our elderly. “We are very thankful for what Mass Computers has done for us and we are just praying that they continue to prosper in order to continue helping us,” she said.

Dark days will soon be over for more than 50 rural households in Thahari village in Ward 8 of Mutale.

The construction phase of an electrification project started during the past week.

The Mutale Local Munici-pality (MLM)has set aside R1 million for the electrification of Thahari village, said the spokes-person for MLM, Mr Thiathu Ravhura.

“We told our communities in Thahari that our government

was ready to change the lives of rural people for the better,” said Ravhura.

Thahari was left in the dark, while some nearby communities in Shakadza and Tshokotshoko recently received electricity. The village’s community liaison officer, Mr Owen Nemangaya, was over the moon to learn that electrification of his village has now started. Nemangaya said the electrification project in his village had changed the life of poor, rural, unemployed com-

munity members for the better, as more than ten people were hired to dig the holes for the electricity poles. Without electricity, “life is a nightmare, because we were forced to use candles and paraffin lamps,” added Nemangaya.

The councillor for Ward 8, Mr Gilbert Netshisaulu, was excited that the municipality had remembered his ward in their long-awaited electrification proj-ect, which will not only benefit communities, but even schools and churches around the area.

life. The album was dedicated to everybody who has ever gone through hard times.

Some of the tracks on her latest album, such as Mutuku na Delele (favourate meal in Venda) and Vhafumakandzi Vha Africa, which are dedicated to all the women of Africa who have endured abuse and hardship, have already become favourites with her fans.

She started singing in 1989 as a backing vocalist for groups like Patleo, Senyaka and many others. She recorded her debut album, Salungano Salun-gano, in 1991 and Hallalah in 1992.

She then took a long break and concentrated on her career as a journalist and to start a family.

She is the first Venda artist in South Africa to make her music reach international markets.

In 2000, her album Vhafumakadzi Vha Africa was nominated for a SAMA award in the best tradition album category.

She also performed in Chicago during the 15th Freedom Day celebrations.

Facelift for Tshishonga Primary SchoolThe Tshishonga Primary School, situated in Thohoy-andou, had deteriorated to such an extent that even rural schools were better off.

Classes had holes in the floor and paint was peeling from the walls. The roof was leaking and the situation was not conducive to proper learning.

The school has now partly transformed after a local busi-nessman donated funds and refurbished a whole block. Businessman James Mukwevho of Real Paints and Chemicals in Thohoyandou recently handed over the newly refurbished block to the community.

Mukwevho was accompanied

by his wife, Louisa. In handing over the newly renovated block, Mukwevho said the donation was a thank you to the commu-nity of Thohoyandou, who have supported him since he started his business. Mukwevho, who ran away from school because of poverty at home, said he did not want to see children learning under the same conditions he had gone through in those years.

“We did not have uniforms in those days and we studied under trees. We are today creating a conducive environment for you here, so that you do not have any excuse for not achieving your goals,” he said.

After being told that there

were still some challenges at the school, Mukwevho promised to complete the other block during the school holidays.

In response, the principal of the school, Ms Joyce Thivha-funi, said the school was still faced with many challenges in terms of resources.

“This is a no-fee-paying school, but we still lack many things here. What Mr Mukw-evho has done for us here is a forecast of good things to come this year. Not long ago, we also received sign boards from Old Mutual, and we are also receiv-ing uniforms for our pupils. This spells good things for our school,” she said.

Happy pupils mob Mr James Mukwevho and his wife Louisa. Also in the photo is the principal, Ms Joyce Thivhafuni (left). The photograph was taken during the official handover of the newly refurbished block.

Cash prizes in Rospa Winter Challenge

Awards for Madombidzha Western’s best

Last weekend marked the beginning of the annual Rospa United Winter Challenge Cup KO competition.

Three matches were staged at the Vuwani Mandani grounds on Sunday. Malamulele FC beat Tshiovhani FC 3-1, Makovha All Stars beat Muthelo FC 2-1 and Rospa United started the competition with a bang when they beat Phadziri FC 2-1.

Several matches will be staged at the same venue this weekend. Ten teams, namely Malamulele FC, Tshiovhani Airline, Ma-

kovha All Stars, Ramukhuba Young Brothers, Tshakhuma RO United, Ngwenani Young Chiefs, Phadziri FC, Tshiozwi Dynamos, Rospa United and Rospa Development FC, reg-istered for the competition this year. The champions of the competition will receive R5 000, a floating trophy, soccer kit and gold medals. A cash prize of R2 500, soccer kit and silver medals are awaiting the team that will finish in second position, while the third-placed team will take home R1 500 and bronze med-

als. The fourth-placed team will receive R1 000.

The final will be staged on Sunday, July 15.

According to the marketing manager of Rospa United, Mr Joseph Makushu, their aim of staging the annual event is to al-low their technical staff to recruit new players in a bid to beef up their squad. Rospa United, an affiliate of the Limpopo Stream of the Vodacom Promotional League, finished their league programme in the third-last posi-tion on the log.

Several players of Madombid-zha Western Stars playing in the Safa Vhembe SAB league received trophies, medals and certificates for their achieve-ments the past season, during a function held at the Makhado show grounds hall on Saturday evening.

According to the managing di-rector of the team, Mr Mashudu Mulaudzi, the main purpose of the function was to motivate the players. He applauded those who received the awards, as the team regards them as role models for other younger people. “You are

the ambassadors of our team,” Mulaudzi said.

“Sports is an important vehicle to cause harmonious interac-tion between people,” said Mr George Kubayi, president of Safa Vhembe. Kubayi said he was proud of the quality of sports development in the Sinthumule area, and Vhembe as a whole.

He indicated that the youth must involve themselves in participating in different sport-ing codes.

Sport and education are the keys to the future of our youth, he said. He requested them to stay

away from crime and alcohol and to be aware of the threat of HIV/Aids.

The players who received tro-phies, medals or certificates for their achievements were: Percy Munonoka (players’ player of the season and top goal scorer); Rudzani Matumba (most dis-ciplined player); Daniel Mu-kosi (most improved player); Oscar Ramantswana (chairman’s award) and Oscar Mafunisa (goal of the season).

Mbengeni “Tshibili” Tshib-vumo was rewarded as the best kit manager.

Nine years in jail for cattle thief (36)

Players of Madombidzha Western Stars and the match officials were disappointed when Tshifhire Northern Brothers failed to honour the Vhembe District Mayoral Cup match at Tshiozwi on Saturday.

A 36-year-old Beit Bridge villager who went to his neigh-bour’s home at night and stole five cows was sentenced to an effective nine years in jail.

Rembuluwani Mukwevho of Umzingwane village outside Beit Bridge pleaded not guilty to stock theft charges but was convicted by local magistrate Mrs Auxilia Chiumburu.

The prosecutor, Mr Forster Abeki, said that on 5 December last year, Mukwevho went to the complainant’s home during the night and found a herd of cattle penned in a fenced enclosure. He then opened the gate, selected five fat cows from the herd and drove them to his homestead, where he penned them.

On waking up the following

morning, the complainant dis-covered that some of his cattle were missing.

He then decided to track the cows by following their spoor, leading to their discovery at Mukwevho’s homestead.

A report was made to the po-lice and Mukwevho was arrested. The stolen cows were subsequent recovered.

Makhitha Oscar Stars proceed to the next stage of the Vhembe District Mayoral Cup after beat-ing Zoutpansberg Powerline 7-6 at Tshiozwi on Saturday.

The winners were determined by a penalty shoot-out after the match ended in a 2-all draw.

Early in the match, Powerline’s killer-striker, Rudzani Nebulu, beat Skaka Makgopo and ran a few steps before shooting straight into the stranded Stars keeper, Itani Selota. As part of their strategy to disorganise their opponents, Stars displayed their dribbling skills in the middle of the park.

Stars’ diminutive striker, Ormish Mudzunga, performed outstandingly throughout the match. Lenox Ramaru was a difficult man to contain for the Powerline defence. His first touch on the ball ended with an attempt which saw the Powerline keeper stretching to the maximum to fist the ball away. Ramaru scored after he received a square pass from Ntungufhadzeni Masinga.

In the second half, Stars introduced Godwin Mahuwa for Ntungufhadzeni Masinga. Jayson “Mlungu” Maisha equalised in the 67th minute. \He unleashed a volley that left Itani Selota a flabber-gasted man. A few minutes later, Powerline went ahead when Aubrey Munyai scored the second goal of his team. Ormish Mudzunga of Stars, however, equalised in the dying minutes.

Mr Gordon Igesund (right) has been appointed as the new head coach of the South African Men’s Senior National Team (Bafana Bafana). The announcement was made last Saturday, at Safa House, following a meeting of the National Executive Committee (NEC). Igesund has been offered a two-year contract, with a mandate to reach at least the semi-final in the 2013 AFCON tournament, which South Africa will host, as well as qualifying for the 2014 FIFA World Cup tournament in Brazil. With Igesund in the photo is the president of Safa, Mr Kirsten Nematandani. Nematandani appealed to the public and media to give the new head coach all the necessary support and not to judge him on upcoming friendly matches against Brazil and Poland (both away).

Two men were killed in and around Makhado the past weekend.

According to Makhado po-lice spokesperson Capt Maano Sadike, a 55-year-old man was killed on a farm along the Von-deling road on Friday, 29 June. A fight had allegedly broken out between the man, his 22-year-old girlfriend and another man.

It was during this fight that the man was stabbed to death with a sharp object.

Both the girlfriend and the second man were arrested.

The following morning, po-lice were once again called to the bloody scene of yet another killing. The body of an unknown man was found lying next to the road on the corner of Burger and

Vorster Street. He had a stab wound to the chest.

In both cases, the police have opened murder cases for further investigation. In the second case, police have requested residents who might have witnessed the incident or who might have more information to assist them. The detectives can be contacted at Tel 083 206 5594.

Two men found dead in Makhado

National chairperson for the parliamentary committee on Public Works (MP) Ms Catherine Mabuza visited Makhado two weeks ago, at which time she addressed the workers at the municipality's extended public works programme (EPWP). She commended them for the work being done. Mabuza said that the 24 women who had been employed to clean the town every day were doing a wonderful job. She added that she was excited about the manner in which the municipality was running the programme. The mayor, Cllr David Mutavhatsindi, told the committee that his municipality has a budget of about R400 000 that has been put aside for the programme. He added that, for the 2012/13 financial year, the project would be rolled out to R293 towns and also to the rural areas.

A deaf man was allegedly beaten to death while drinking locally brewed traditional Mu-tomboti beer at Ha-Madzhiga village in the Mashau area last Saturday.

According to W/O Solly Muk-hola of the Levubu police, it is al-leged that Mr Kenny Mohale (31)

was relaxing when a 19-year-old man attacked him and beat him to death. It is suspected that the two had had differences in the past.

Mukhola added that the police had opened a case of murder, fol-lowing the incident, and that their investigations were continuing.

He added that the police man-

aged to arrest Mukhethwa Tshif-hango in connection with the case last Sunday.

Tshifhango appeared in the Vuwani Magistrate’s Court on Tuesday and the case was post-poned.

He remains in custody.

Crime


Pastor in custody after hit-and-runA 39-year-old Zimbabwean pastor from Mwene-zi outside Beit Bridge was arrested for allegedly speeding, running over and killing a pedestrian who was trying to cross the road.

After knocking down the pedestrian, he allegedly sped from the scene, leaving the man lying in the road in a pool of blood.

Nhamo Chigoni, a pastor of the local Baptist Church, pleaded not guilty to a charge of culpable homicide, when he appeared before Magistrate Gloria Takundwa.

The case was postponed to 20 August and he remains in custody.

The prosecutor, Mr Reason Mutimba, said on 7 May at around 19:20, Chigoni was driving a Gauteng-registered Toyota Hilux bakkie along the Beit Bridge-Masvingo road, heading towards Masvingo.

On approaching the 223km peg, he allegedly hit Mutanga Ncube, who was trying to cross the road. Ncube died instantly.

The court was told that, instead of stopping, Chigoni fled from the scene. He was, however, intercepted by police at a road block and arrested.

Amazing victory for United“Community had lost trust in Mphephu SAPS”Last Sunday marked the end of the road for Shayandima Silver Stars in the Vhembe Mayoral Challenge Cup competition.

They were brutally walloped 1-7 by Tshakhuma RO United at the Tshifulanani Stadium. Silver Stars were out of touch from the onset. It took United nine minutes to open their account. Ipfi Muthubi caught the keeper of Stars, Phethani Muswodi, napping and blasted in a rocket from the edge of the box.

What followed thereafter was one-way traffic, with the Stars at the receiving end.

United’s second goal came in the 18th minute. Lufuno Mugodi scored with a volley after receiving a neat pass from Elvis Netshidongololwe.

Silver Stars lost hope after United scored their third goal. Lufuno Mugodi completed his brace by hooking in a loose ball, following a scramble within the box.

Silver Stars pulled one back in the 34th minute. Ndivhuwo Mah-wasane was on target after forcing his way through the defence of United. Stars’ solitary goal was a wake-up call to United. They scored two more goals before the end of

Residents of Nzhelele said they had had enough of the increasing crime taking place in their area.

They showed their dissatisfaction with the situation after the recent ATM bomb-ings in the area when they marched to the Mphephu SAPS offices to hand over a

the first half. Their fourth goal was scored by their overlapping mid-fielder, Asivhanzhi Muthubi.

Mathisa scored United’s fifth goal three minutes before the break. He finished off a rebound after Asivhanzhi Muthubi’s long-range ground cutter.

Victor Makhaukhau scored Unit-ed’s sixth goal 10 minutes into the second half. Ndivhuwo Makhado scored late in the game to bring the final score to 7-1.

memorandum with their demands.The people, who are residing in eight

villages in the area, agreed to work hand in hand with the police to root out crime in the area.

They complained that they had noticed no improvement in the area since their

meeting with the management of the SAPS in 2009.

The chairperson of the Nzhelele Civic Association, Mr Bonny Sinthumule, said that the high crime rate, especially house-breaking and theft, was not acceptable and was ravaging the area.

The demonstrators also alleged that criminals had “taken over the village, roamed the streets, terrorizing residents at will. We are at the mercy of these thugs and we need to act in order to stop them in their tracks,” he said.

Sinthumule said that the community had lost trust in the Mphephu SAPS, es-pecially regarding the investigation of the housebreaking cases.

He said that the ATM bombing in March occurred less than 500m from the police station. “We are law-abiding citizens, who strongly feel that the police must protect the community,” said the civic leader.

Col Mashudu Mavhandu, the station commander at the Mphephu SAPS, said they were experiencing difficulties to locate witnesses for certain cases.

The chairperson of the Nzhelele civic, Mr Bonny Sinthumule (left), and Cllr John Mamafha look on as the station commissioner of the Mphephu SAPS, Col Mashudu Mavahndu (middle), signs the memorandum.

Elliot Makhado of Barcelona controls the ball, with Mashudu Muthurwana of Muthelo on his heels

Muthelo Football Club went through to the next stage of the prestigious Vhembe May-oral Challenge Cup by beating Vyeboom Barcelona 3-0 at the Vuwani Mandani grounds last Saturday.

Barcelona committed suicide by playing defensive football instead of going for goals.

Although they were out of touch most of the time, Barcelona all-rounder Tombo Ndou remained a living ele-ment throughout the game. Tombo was ev-erywhere, delivering telling passes to the frontrunners, who fum-bled at the goal finish on a continuous basis.

Muthelo were leading 1-0 when the referee, Mr Phineas Rambau, blew the half-time whistle. The goal came in the 40th minute.

Azwinndini Mashigo tried his luck from out-side the box and the keeper of Barcelona, Rudzani Muthambi, watched helplessly as the ball hit the back of the net.

The only change Barcelona effected to their original lineup was when they replaced Thilivhali Muavha with Elliot Makhado early in the last half. Muth-elo played like a united

team with their midfielders, Maduvhahafani Mudologi and Vhonani Munyai, dishing out telling passes to the strikers.

Mashudu Mukhari scored their second goal after a scramble within the Barcelona danger area. The only time Barcelona came close to scoring in the last half was when Tombo Ndou

unleashed a volley from the 25-meter area.

The keeper of Muthelo, Muambiwa Ndou, palmed the ball away for a corner kick.

Vhonani Munyai scored the third in the 84th minute. Muth-elo displayed their dribbling skills for the remaining part of the game.

Muthelo FC too strong for Barcelona

Melvin Tshifularo tries to stop the ball, while Marubini Manyane is waiting for him to make a mistake.

Lylod Davhana of Benny´s tries to block the ball from Norman Mudau.

Mailaskop Pull Together regis-tered a 4-0 victory over Benny’s Care Development Academy in a Vhembe District Mayoral Cup match at the Tshiozwi grounds on Saturday.

Benny's had nobody to blame but themselves for the defeat. They squandered numerous obvious chances in the first half.

Their leading goal scorer, Phophi Phophi, could not live up to his reputation, as he was contained by Tshilidzi Muraga.

Benny's were matching their opponents in the first half, but their stamina faded as the going became tough. Melvin Tshifularo was a difficult man to mark. He eluded the Benny's defence as

he kept running from the onset. Pull Together’s keeper, Walter Chuma, denied the opposition several sure chances.

The visitors scored when Mel-vin Tshifularo broke the ice in the 49th minute. The goal came against the run of play and Chuma caught Thendo Sidaela off guard.

Pull Together kick Benny’s out of Cup

Melvin Mbatha added another goal seven min-utes later. Benny's tried to use offside traps and nearly paid for that as Tshilidzi Muraga and Norman Mudau took ad-vantage of the situation.

Christopher Manyat-sha increased the tally to 3-0 and Melvin Tshifu-laro scored the final goal for Pull Together in the 78th minute. Yona Mulaudzi of Benny's was red carded for a rough attack on Pull Together’s keeper.

Mr Thompson Mbombi.

For many people, their 50th birthday marks an occasion where they should start relaxing, playing games with the grandchildren and scal-ing down on activities. This is not the case for Thompson Mbombi, a well-known athlete from Elim. He only started taking part in races such as the Comrades Marathon at the age of 51.

The 54-year-old employee at the Elim Hospital recently finished another gruelling Comrades Marathon in a time of 7:50:29.

Mbombi explained that he had always had a passion for athletics and he had excelled in sports from primary school level. When he grew older, he wanted to show other people through

his deeds that they should take care of their health. "If you exercise, you will always stay healthy. This also prevents diseases such as high blood pressure and heart attacks," he said.

In the past decade, he has participated in various races. His achievements in-clude winning the 21.1km half-marathon in Thohoyandou in 2008, completing the 42.2km Soweto Marathon in 2010 and the Two Countries Marathon in Musina last year. He received a warm welcome from his community after taking part in the recently held Comrades Marathon.

Mr Avhatakali Marole, communica-tion officer at Elim Hospital, said that Mbombi had placed the hospital on the map. "We always encourage our staff as well as our patients to exercise," he said.

Mbombi said that he was currently preparing himself for next year's Com-rades Marathon.

He expressed his appreciation to members of his family for the support. This athlete, however, is also facing difficulties when it comes to securing sponsorships. He is appealing to anyone who can sponsor him to contact him at 072 311 3435 or 0155563201.

Masters out of Mayoral CupBy Frank Mavhungu

Gwamasenga United Brothers beat Maungani Mighty Masters 2- 1 to secure a place in the next stage of the Vhembe Mayoral Challenge Cup. The match was played at the Tshifulanani Stadium on Sunday.

Brothers were unlucky not to score half a dozen of goals during the first half. At that stage, Mighty Masters were disorgan-ised in all departments.

Instead of capitalizing on this, United Brothers contin-ued to shoot aimlessly from the goal mouth. They were awarded a free kick outside the box when the game was 24 minutes old. Rendani Mudau tried his luck and the keeper of Masters, Rhulani Manyike, misjudged the flight of the ball and suffered the pain of watching it go beyond his reach.

Brothers’ diminutive midfielder, Ntambudzeni Mundalamo, was reprimand-ed with a card for a continued argument with the referee.

The keeper of United Brothers, Oupa Rambuwani, was put to the test in the 34th minute. Nkhanedzeni Nema-hunguni of Masters released a rocket from outside the box. Rambuwani braved the shot and executed a brilliant save. Rambuwani’s effort was a morale booster to his teammates.

United Brothers were leading 2-0 at break. Rofhiwa Ganyane scored easily. His shot was deflected into the net by a defender of Masters, Godfrey Tshisikule. Masters were dictating the terms through-out the last half. Their only goal was scored by Nkhanedzeni Nemahunguni in the 68th minute.

Dakalo Mudau of United Brothers was warned with a card for wasting time.

Mighty Masters lost a fortune in the 76th minute. They were awarded a penalty after a defender of Brothers, Rendani Sadiki, handled the ball within the box. Thendo Nemahunguni could not believe his eyes when the keeper of Brothers stretched to the limit to palm the ball away for a corner kick. United Brothers packed themselves at the far back in the last 10 minutes in a bid to defend their lead.
