THEAfricanHawkersAssociationhas vowedto fight crime and the selling of drugs on thestreets of Mthatha.

This pledge was made at a meeting in theMthatha Town Hall last Wednesday attendedby hundreds of hawkers.The meeting followed allegations that

Mthatha street vendors were also involvedin the criminal activities which are plaguingMthatha.The meeting was attended by the police

and other law enforcement agencies inMthatha who promised to work hand-in-glove with the hawkers to curb crime.Police recently arrested a number of peo-

ple at stands who posed as hawkers. They al-so seized a large amount of drugs in smallenvelopes and tea boxes.It was also discovered that foreigners sup-

posedly selling CDs were actually sellingdrugs on the streets, including York Road

and Sutherland, Chatham and Madeirastreets.African Hawkers Association president

Fundile Jalile said: “We are not encouragingxenophobia, but we will fight people whocommit crime irrespective of where theycome from because we will never fold ourarms and watch people committing crime infront of us.“Everybody in Mthatha must know that

we are not criminals. We are just hawkerswho try to survive. Those criminals whopose as hawkersmust be arrested,” a fumingJalile said.He stressed that stands must stop keeping

stolen goods.He said some people selling CDs were

problematic because behind the CDs therewere drugs.“Even some of the airtime sellers were not

selling airtime only,” he said.Hawker Nomabali Toti called on all hawk-

ers to establish committees that would facethe crime directly.

THE Deputy Minister of Cooperative Gov-ernance and Traditional Affairs, Obed Bap-ela, has warned illegal iingcibi (surgeons)who continue to conduct illegal initiationschools to expect a tough and merciless re-sponse from the government.

Bapela was speaking at a two-day man-hood summit at Dan’s Lodge last weekend.The purpose of the summit was to seek a

response to the continuing outcry of parentsand the community at large about injuries

to and deaths of young boys during and afterundergoing the initiation process, as well asto further reinforce and acknowledge the im-plementation of the current relevant strate-gies and legislation.Bapela agreed the initiation custom was

out of hand, but said the governmentwantedto strengthen the law so that people whocommercialised the custom received toughpunishment.“In this forthcoming circumcision season,

we will watch with an eagle eye. Traditionalsurgeons and nurses who do wrong and endup killing an initiate will get a minimum of10 years imprisonment. The maximum willbe from 15 to 20 years.We cannot allow the killing of our chil-

dren, who are the future of this country, bypeoplewhowant to generate money for theirown sake,” Bapela said.

He said they wanted to abolish illegalschools throughout the country and theyneeded this custom to be respected and not

regarded as a fashion. He urged initiates toensure that they went to schools authorisedby iinkosi if they were in the rural areas andby the municipality in the urban areas.He also stressed that this custommust also

adapt to medical male circumcision to alignwith modern practice. Professional circum-cision doctors known to the area must bebrought in to lead this custom.Eastern Cape House of Traditional Lead-

ers chairperson Nkosi Ngangomhlaba Mat-anzima called on parents to elect trusted,knowledgeable ingcibi and ikhankatha (tra-ditional surgeons and nurses).“I am talking about a person who is going

to handle these children and protect themfrom the criminals who forcefully give themalcohol,” Matanzima said.The summit was attended by iinkosi, gov-

ernment officials, women from various roy-al houses, young boys ready to undergo theritual and young men who have already un-dergone it.

ANATURE reserve has been launched at TsisaFalls in Qumbu in the Mhlontlo Local Munici-pality.

Themunicipality is working on the initiativewiththeprovincialDepartmentofEconomicDe-velopment, Environmental Affairs and Tour-ism, which has pledged R26.7-million for workin the nature reserve.The ideaof thereserveatTsitsaFalls emerged

in 2007 afterMhlontlowas identified as a touristdestination,with itsmain focus on thepreserva-tion of nature and the heritage of the area.Fencing of the reserve was recently complet-

ed, with 118 members of the community being

employed.During the official opening, Mayor Mandisa

Giyose said Mhlontlo was one of the leadingtourism destinations in the Eastern Cape as itboasted tourism attractions like the Tina Fallsand the cliffs where theKhoi-khoiwere staying.SheappealedtothepeopleofMhlontlotostand

up and restore their heritage to attract moretourists to the area.“This nature reserve should generate money

for the benefit of the community of Tsitsa, as thetourists who visit the areamust pay at the gate.“It is about time to develop the areas where

people live so they can generatemoney on theirown,” Giyose said.The chief of the area,MncediVeco,welcomed

the reserve, saying there would be a need of

community involvement to support and acceptthe project.“People must protect the project and no one

must destroy the fencing which surrounds thenature reserve. Huntersmust stop hunting andpeoplemust stopdiggingupherbshere.Anyonewho needs to get something from inside the re-serve must liaise with the chief.”He said themunicipalitymust ensure that ev-

ery cent of the money donated to the projectmust be accounted for and the leaders of theproject must be accountable.

PEOPLEwithknowledge of traditional herbsshould share itwith the government, the gen-eralmanager of the Department of EconomicDevelopment, Environmental Affairs andTourism, Albert Mfenyana, has said.Addressing hundreds of people in Qumbu

last Tuesday (September 22), he said it wasimportant to preserve such knowledge so

that it could benefit the next generation.He said some of these herbs helped in heal-

ing when used by experts with knowledge oftraditional medicine and its use.He said most black people died with valua-

ble information about herbs. It was never re-corded and just vanished.“We need to record their knowledge and

pass it on to the next generation.”Traditional herbs expert Masikhathele

Ntuli expressed gratitude for the idea.“We have been isolated as traditionalists

and our government paid more attention tothe western medicines, whereas ours doesthe same.“We grewup, even you (referring toMfeya-

na), using traditional herbs. Pregnant wom-an drink a medicine mixed with traditionalroots and herbs called isihlambezo (used pre-viouslywhen therewerenoclinics topreparethe unborn child for the time of birth),” shesaid.She called on the government to fast-track

the idea. – SIMBONGILE MDLEDLE

STUDENTS at the King Sabatha DalindyeboTVETCollege inMthathaare continuingwiththeir trial exams following a protest whichlasted almost three weeks.The students were complaining that they

had not received their National Student Fi-nancial Aid Scheme (NSFAS) allowances.Everything went back to normal after par-

ents and management met to discuss the is-sue.

Provincial Sasco executive committeemember Oscar Sifuba said a task team hadbeen selected to ensure that there was a solu-tion to the problem.“At the moment I can say everything is

back to normal because of this task team thatwas selected, but we will see what happenswhen they give us feedback,” he said.Although the Cicira campus students were

writing their trial exams, those at the Ntaboz-

uko campus in Elliotdale and at the Ngcobocampus were continuing with their protestand not writing exams.Sifuba said most of the students were from

poor backgrounds and that was why they hadapplied for NSFAS bursaries.They stayed far from the institution, could

not afford to pay for transport every day andended up walking long distances. This alsomade them the targets of thugs.

“This year the NSFAS granted studentsR36-million for tuition and allowances, butour students did not get those allowances,”college spokesman Sigqibo Kahla said.“The Ntabozuko campus has closed down

and the management will negotiate with stu-dents this week.“I can confirm that students at the Ngcobo

campus are writting their exams.”– BABALWA NDLANYA

WOMEN’s Network and Men for Changepolice officers gathered in Mthatha tocelebrate Heritage Day and remembertheir traditions and customs.

Cluster commander Major General Jo-han Fourie said he was proud of the wayhis officers were doing things and hedoubted there was another cluster that

was doing what they were doing.“Mthatha is leading by example. I as-

sure you that others will learn from youbecause keeping traditions and customsalive is very important.”

He said that nowadays the world wasfaced with a high rate of rape, violenceand other crime because people had shift-ed from what they were supposed to doand traditions had gone down the drain.

Fourie encouraged officials to bring

back their dignity because now peoplejust sat in shebeens and drank alcoholand had forgotten where they had comefrom.

He said Men for Change must makesure they set an example so that othermen could learn from them.

He also urged the officials not to forgetGod, their families and their culture be-cause if they forgot those things theywould lose focus.

A MAN from the Deberha location in Ngcobois lucky to be alive after a brutal attack in ashebeen on the night of September 5.

Zuko Ntungo (27) lost his lower teeth andcannot speak properly because of stitches inhis mouth. His head and body are full of inju-ries.

He is drinking only amahewu through astraw since he cannot chew food.

He said that on the night of the attack hehad been in Ngcobo and had gone to the taxirank very late to look for transport home.

Unfortunately there had been no transportgoing to his area since it was late, but luckilyhe had met a driver who had agreed to takehim home since he was also going to Deberhaand Zuko knew him because they were neigh-bours.

“We were about eight in this Quantum.While we were on the way, the driver and his

friends argued about going back to anotherarea to find booze, since they had finished thecase thatwas in the taxi.When thepassengerssaid itwas all right, the driverwent backwithus to look for booze,” Zuko said.

When theywent into the shebeen to buy thealcohol, an argument had broken out betweenthe driver and othermenwhowere in the she-been.

The argument had then turned into a hugefight.

“Another passenger, who is my neighbour,and I decided towalk away even though itwasdark because we saw that our lives were indanger although we were not involved in thismess.

“While we were walking away, the attack-ers followedus. Theyassaultedmewith sticksand other dangerous weapons.”

Zuko said he had tried to hide in a waterdrain, but the attackers had seen him andforced him to come out.

They took him to the Quantum and beat

him again, but he was saved by anotherneighbour, who rushed to the scene and firedshots to disperse the attackers.

He was then rushed to his home by theneighbour and then taken to the All SaintsHospital, where he was stitched, and thenrushed to the NelsonMandela Academy Hos-pital.

“I am still askingmyself why they attackedme because I had nothing to do with the fightbetween them and the driver and hisfriends.”

His cousin, Fani Ntungo, said they werevery hurt about what had happened to Zukobecause he was not a troublemaker.

“We don’t knowwhy they did it to him, buta case has been opened against the attackersand we are looking forward to justice takingits course,” Ntungo said.

Police spokesperson Inspector Dineo Koe-na said a case of grievous bodily harm hadbeen opened at the Ngcobo police station andthe matter was being investigated.

VIOLENCE among Lusikisiki and Flag-staff taxi drivers has prompted the pro-vincial government to intervene as thesafety of innocent passengers is in dan-ger.

Transport MEC Weziwe Tikana mettaxi owners in Flagstaff on Thursday lastweek in an effort to put an end to the prob-lem on Ingquza Hill roads.

One taxi owner, who asked for anonym-ity for his safety, said Lusikisiki taxidrivers had gone against an agreementreached by the Provincial Taxi Councilthat they should use the St Elizabethroute to Qaukeni Great Place to reachBuhlanyanga and Holy Cross.

“It is not Flagstaff taxi drivers who are

dangerous and problematic, but seeming-ly Lusikisiki is the problem because thetaxis who get damaged and burnt are theones from Flagstaff,” the driver said.

Tikana said the problem was betweenthe two towns, and so they had decided tomeet both parties to come to a solution.

“We decided to form a committee of rep-resentatives from the municipality, thetransport industry, the Lusikisiki andFlagstaff taxi owners associations andfrom the Border Alliance at provinciallevel to come to an agreement that willmake sure we never find ourselves in thissituation again,” Tikana said.

Lusikisiki police spokesman CaptainMduduzi Godlwana said no one has beenarrested in any of the incidents, but thepolice were working hard to maintainpeace between the two parties.

A CONVICTED murderer asked the com-munity for forgiveness at a victim offenderdialogue hosted by the Department of Cor-rectional Services in Mbizana last Thurs-day.

Siphelele Mabhude is serving a 30-yearsentence for crimes committed in Nomlacu,including murder and attempted murder.He was sentenced in 1995.Last Thursday he had the chance to ask

for forgiveness from the victims and fami-lies of the dead.Mabhude said he was very sorry for the

crimes he had committed and was now achanged man.“I am so sorry for all the pain I have

caused to the families of the deceased andthe (attempted murder) victim and I prom-ise to never go back to my old ways, butwork on fighting crime in my community,”he said.He added that he hoped that all the local

young boys who saw him as a role modelwould stop their criminal acts because be-ing in jail was not good.Mabhude was sentenced for the murder

of Zukile Mavukwana and attempted mur-der of Mfuneko Mti, both from Nomlacu lo-cation, and anger was evident from bothfamilies during his plea and explanation of

his motives.Mavukwana’s mother, Zoleka Mavukwa-

na, said she had gone through a lot of heart-ache when she lost her son.“What is worse is that Mabhude never

showed any remorse back then and duringthe court proceedings I was the laughingstock of his family and friends,” she said.She said she had forgivenMabhude for all

his wrongdoings and she hoped he meantwhat he said about being a changed man.Mfuneko Mti seemed to have many unan-

swered questions for Mabhude and angerwas still evident in his voice.Regional commissioner Nkosinathi

Breakfast said the session had been aimedat giving the offender a chance to talk withthe victims and community at large tomakesure that the community was alerted abouthis release and to allow him to show re-morse.“This was to give victims an opportunity

to talk to the perpetrator where he has achance to tell the truth and ask for forgive-ness, while also giving them a platform toexpress their views on his release,” Break-fast said.Mabhude underwent several pro-

grammes in the Wellington Prison inMthatha where he is being kept, includingAggressive Behaviour Management,Changing Lanes, Drug Abuse and LifeSkills.

Shame of this generationSometimes we ask ourselves about the fu-

ture of this country in the hands of drunkardsamong our young people.Ja, alcohol is not new, but these young peo-

ple are swimming deep in a pool of alcohol andsometimes they tend to forget the importantthings and instead they put utywala first.We were watching a guy who was grandly

drunk at the launch of an important projectaimed at developing the local youth and togeneratemoney for the area, but kukhonaaba-za kulo mcimbi onjalo bephelile kukunxila. Iwonder where we are going to. He was forcinghis way to the stage ukuba uyokwenza ntoninobody knows.

Dear young people, let us limit our speed inalcohol abuse because we are ruining our-selves and the future of our beautiful countrywhichootataMandelanabanye they fought forto be free. This honey that the blood spills be-fore we get it seems as if sidlala ngayo ngoku.Abanye abasalali nasemakhaya leli jiki ba-

vumela into ewrong ethi koze kuse. Phezaningoku kwanele. Tell them gossip.

Okwenzileyo okubi kukulandela njalonawe

Uyabona ke okubi okwenzileyo nakuwe ku-yenzeka and kukhawulezile konke oku. I won-der xa bedibana phaya eZulwini uza kuthi wa-yembulale ntoni usisi okanye ubhuti wakhe

xa bembuza? If bekundim Gesh bendakucelaba-yinike mna ifolokhwe yokumfaka esihog-weni umntu obulele omnye kuba akumeleukuba si-bulale.

Dark cloud over MzansiJa, we are not fortune tellers, but the way

things are going we can see a huge hell we aregoing to?We can see someyoung people of today don’t

want to work hard and want to get things inthe easiest way.They don’t believe in sweating in order to

attain happiness in life. They can spend thewhole week in taverns if not shebeens.Even those who are lucky enough to get a

job just choose boozing rather than their pre-cious jobs and end up quitting the job becauseno employer can allow a drunkard in his orher workplace. I wonder iingqondo zabo zisi-benza nini normally xa zahlala zigqunywe li-

jiki.So if our young people become heavy drink-

ers but jobless, where will they get the moneyto buy more booze?Obviously they have to steal and rob those

who try to make a living.So as a gossip teamwe see the country being

overwhelmed by crime because it produced ageneration which hates to make living doingthings on its own, but depending on commit-ting crime to get what it needs.Mara kwangoku sekuqalile because ooma-

gogo xa bamkele i-“pay” abasalali emakhaye-ni kuba ezi ntwana zibazingela okwenyamaza-ni zifuna le mali.Nakhonake lemali aziyi kuthengakutyabe-

sides ukuyofuna iziyobisi notywala.Mawwuuu!! Yatsho ikati. Kunzimahonestly

ezweni sokhile.Masike sithi shelele until next time with

more gossip.

A World RabiesDay event was heldin Mthatha on Mon-day to raise aware-ness about this dis-ease which can betransmitted to hu-mans.Rabies is caused

by a virus that ani-mals and people canget through expo-sure to the saliva ornervous tissue of arabid animal, and isnearly always fatalwithout proper post-exposure prophy-laxis.The Eastern Cape
