>> Rescue members go the extra mile>> Google Earth is so overrated KESHIA J V RENSBURG>> [email protected]

Enrico Cloete (29) saw his life flashing before his eyes while being stuck on the Wolkberg Mountains on Monday before Emergency

Medical members attached to the Limpopo Tactical Rescue and Response Intervention Crew (TRRIC) reached and rescued him.

Cloete, from Lephalale, said he joined his brother and a friend on a four-day hiking trip in the Wolkberg Mountains on Saturday. “It was a first for my brother and I while our friend had previously been on only one expedition. We were very inexperienced and because of this knew that we would be taking things slow with all necessary precautions put in place,” Cloete said, adding that it is very important for people to realise that real life never looks the same as Google Earth.

He said the conditions of the hike were not as favourable as they had hoped and it soon became evident that he was stuck on a ledge 800 m from safety and could not go any further.

“I sent my brother and friend ahead with the hope that they would return with water and help. Luckily they left a cellular phone with me and I was able to call my father, Pieter Cloete who in turn notified TRRIC that we were stuck and in dire need of help. He said what helped a lot is that they had left a map of the area, with their intended route, with his father before leaving on the excursion.

Adele van der Linde from the Limpopo Department of Social Development said both the Capricorn and the Mopani Rescue Teams were dispatched as well as an EMS helicopter and an Oryx helicopter from 19 Squadron in

Hoedspruit. “The first two hikers were airlifted from the

top of a hill but the third hiker (Cloete) had to be hoisted from his position using the Oryx. Everyone was transported to Haenertsburg where they were physically examined and properly hydrated by the rescue team,” Van der Linde confirmed.

Cloete said despite his ordeal he can hap-pily say that he is overjoyed by the way the situation was handled by everyone involved in saving him and his fellow hikers. “When I think back on the level of professionalism of the rescuers I have renewed hope for South Africa and Limpopo. Not only was I lifted from

a crevice in the mountain I thought I could not escape from but my rescuer, Jaco van Zyl, went beyond the call of duty in keeping me calm, supplying me with an energy drink and assuring me that all would now end well,” Cloete recalled.

Van der Linde said the tactical rescue team has the following warnings for hiking trail enthusiasts: Do not negotiate hiking trails that are too difficult for your level of fitness and skill; stick to well-known hiking trails and stay on the trail; always let people close to you know exactly where you are going, when you start with the hike and when you expect to be back.

Presies agt maande gelede het Johndré Adlem (25) kalm en beredeneerd aan Polokwane Observer vertel hoe hy sy ouers die verdriet van die begrafnisreëlings van sy ouer broer, Warren gespaar het deur die beplanning tot in die fynste detail te hanteer. Warren is in Oktober verlede jaar in ‘n kwadfietsongeluk oorlede.

Die noodlot het die opgewekte en lewenslustige Johndré, tweede oudste van die vier kinders van Willie en Karin Adlem egter verlede Donderdag self getref toe hy by sy werk ‘n massiewe beroerte gekry het wat sy dood twee dae later veroorsaak het.

Johndré se werkgewer, Erick Vermeulen, het hom Donderdagoggend by sy lessenaar aangetref waar hy met sy kop agteroor gesit het. Hy het dadelik besef daar is groot fout en met hom na Mediclinic Limpopo gejaag.

Sy ouers, broers en meisie, Cindy Bester, het sedertdien pal langs sy bed gewaak. Spesialis in-ternis, Jameel Omar het hulle meegedeel dat hy ernstige skade opgedoen het en dat daar bykans geen kans op herstel is nie.

Saterdagmiddag het Karin besef dat haar seun op sy sterwensbed lê en met sy kop in haar hande vir hom gesê: “Jy is nou in kom-munikasie met God en Hy sal besluit wat goed is vir jou. Indien dit Sy wil is, aanvaar ons jou ten volle soos jy nou is en help jou op die her-stelpad. As Hy jou wil hemel toe neem berus ons daarby en aanvaar dit ten volle. Moenie oor ons bekommerd wees nie,” het sy met wonderbaarlike beheersing aan Polokwane Observer gesê.

Die Adlems sê hulle het nie alleen berusting en vrede in Johndré se heengaan gevind nie, maar ook terselftertyd weer afskeid van War-ren geneem. “Met Warren se dood is hy skielik van ons weggeruk. Ek kon nooit vir oulaas iets vir hom sê nie. Ek kon Saterdag aan Johndré se warm hand vat terwyl hy die tydelike lewe verlaat het en op ‘n manier ook afsluiting van Warren kry en het vrede wat alle verstand te bowe gaan omdat my kind Jesus geleef het,” sê Karin.

Johndré het sowat drie jaar gelede sy lewe drasties ten goede verander nadat hy op ‘n

slegte plek in sy lewe was en het terugge-keer na Polokwane waar hy aktief by die kerk betrokke geraak het. Volgens sy uitgebreide vriendekring was hy ‘n vriend duisend wat altyd ‘n plan kon maak en homself tweede gestel het. Almal is dit eens dat hy diep spore in mense se harte getrap het.

“Hy was ‘n staatmaker wat mense se le wens en harte aangeraak het met sy liefdevolle en opregte menswees. Dis die persoon wat ek altyd sal liefhê,” sê Cindy. Hy was soos ‘n kind in die Besters se huis en het altyd gesê Piet en Ansie is sy skoonouers omdat Cindy sy trouvrou is.

Vir die Polokwane-gemeenskap het die Adlems net lof. “Geen ander plek se mense kan so omgee en ‘n mens so dra nie. Sedert Warren se dood word ons elke dag toegevou in liefde en gebede. Net as ons voel ons wiele raak bietjie pap, lig iemand ons op, hetsy met ‘n kuier, ‘n bemoedigende boodskap of net ‘n liefdesgebaar. Ons kan nie ons dank verwoord nie.”

Die begrafnis vind Saterdag om 11:00 vanuit die Ou Apostoliese Kerk, hv Bekker- en Elandstraat in Faunapark plaas.

An intervention plan to bring into opera-tion a very costly but dysfunctional Public Health Information System (PHIS) of an

estimated annual expenditure of R40 million and R1,6 billion in law suits due to alleged poor quality public health services rank among the most significant headaches underlined in a document supposed to be incorporated in a presentation to a weekend lekgotla of the African National Congress (ANC) in Limpopo.

According to a source the classified docu-ment exposing the seemingly shocking state of Limpopo’s public health system was presented to a sub-committee of the ANC last week ahead of the lekgotla scheduled for this Satur-day and Sunday.

The 41-page document talks of intercession measures following a host of health system failures. The prevailing situation in Limpopo apparently leaves much to be desired.

Stressing the importance of understand-ing the root causes of detailed challenges, the document refers to delivery of services in Limpopo being characterised by evidence of under-performance as captured in eight pages of pointers.

Under service delivery, the health work-force, leadership, financial and information management as well as medicines, equipment, technology and infrastructure headers numer-ous issues are highlighted. Pressing problems include increasing maternal and infant deaths at various health facilities, increased law suits due to poor quality services currently stand-ing at R1,6 billion, incomplete infrastructure projects, long queues and lack of food for pa-tients in hospitals, unavailable medicines and consumables, numerous vacant posts, poor leadership and management, lack of accounta-bility and consequences for poor performance, highly politicised and non-productive person-

nel, dysfunctional governance structures, three consecutive Auditor-General disclaimers, poorly equipped facilities and shortage of as well as a poorly managed emergency medical services and departmental fleet. The list goes on.

Among the interventions proposed to rectify health system failures relating to financial management are suggestions for reviewing the top 20 contracts with the intention to stop the leakage of departmental resources as well as all outstanding litigation files and also finalising outstanding issues on asset management.

In addressing the health workforce crisis, intervention into evidence of fraudulent prac-tices and abuse of the call system, overtime and remuneration for work outside the public service system it mentions that 15 investigated cases were all awaiting disciplinary hearings and alleged fraud and corruption relating to financial management resulted in the apparent ongoing investigation of more than 135 cases.

Most alarming is what is referred to as a costly but dysfunctional PHIS of R39,6 mil-lion per annum, a pricey expenditure to the Limpopo taxpayer. With regards to intervention the document points out a review of further participation in the PHIS and supporting contracts. Under progress the completion date of March 2014 is stipulated. The document reflects that an intervention plan to bring the PHIS to functionality at an affordable cost is currently being developed.

The source reiterated that the statistics were shocking, but stated the truth about Limpopo’s public health system and attempts by the Health Department to rectify matters had to be known.

ANC Limpopo spokesperson Khumbudzo Ntshavheni said the lekgotla would look at issues like the performance of the ruling party in the elections, the impact of administrative intervention on governance and the economy as well as service delivery at local government level.

Commencing his State of the City Address, Polokwane Executive Mayor Freddy Greaver on Tuesday referred

to Polokwane Observer alluding to his and Capricorn District Mayor Lawrence Mapoulo’s possible removal by saying that he is not depressed by the article published last week.

“If I am to be removed, I will accept it. If it is not God’s plan and it is not time yet, it will not prosper,” he said before continu-ing to address guests on the state of the city with the theme, Celebrating 20 years of freedom, moving towards a smart city.

“The municipality has adopted the smart city concept as a way of fast track-ing the service delivery to the community. Consistent with the smart city concept, we have launched the Vision 2030 that will assist the municipality to work towards the realisation of becoming a smart city,” Greaver said.

Job creation The municipality managed to create 3 170 jobs through the Expanded Public Works Programme (EPWP). Seventy-five small, medium and micro enterprises (SMMEs) were incubated at Itsoneng centre, 477 jobs created through Local Economic Development (LED) initiative with 132 per-manent jobs through the same initiative.

Revenue The total revenue is R2,228 billion in 2014/15 and will escalate to R2,553 billion by 2016/17 representing a year-on-year increase of 7% for the 2015/16 and 2016/17 financial years. Revenue generated from property rates amounted to R302 million in 2014/15 and R326 mil-lion in 2015/16. Service charges relating to electricity, water, sanitation and refuse removal constitute the biggest component of the revenue basket of the municipality totalling R1,181 billion for the 2014/15 financial year.

Tariff increaseTariff increases were approved by council recently. Residents now pay 7% more for electricity, water and sanitation and 6%

more for refuse removal. Valuation roll

The inspection period of the general valu-ation roll was extended to 23 June. A sup-plementary valuation roll was submitted on 30 May to correct entries in the general valuation roll and to include possible omissions. The supplementary valuation roll has been advertised for inspection and objections from 1 July to 1 August.

Indigent supportThe budget provides for 15 000 households to be registered as indigent in 2014/15 and therefore entitles to receive free basic ser-vices. The indigent subsidy is set at R317,74 per month. The municipality made provision to render six kilolitres of water, 100 units of electricity, free sanitation and refuse re-moval from beneficiaries and also exempted the first R100 000 of the valuation of their property from the payment of rates. It is anticipated that these free services will cost the municipality R35,4 million in the 2014/15 financial year.

Operating expenditureBulk purchase has significantly increased over the 2014/15 to 2016/17 period esca-lating from R698 million to R810 million. This can be attributed to the substantial increase in the cost of bulk electricity procured from Eskom.

Performance improvement plan from Auditor General’s report

The municipality in response to the chal-lenge of the Auditor General’s negative opinion has developed measures to correct the situation. The Audit Action Plan will be implemented and monitored by management. As corrective measures the municipality will employ the following measures: Review the organogram and align it to the powers and functions of the municipality in order to improve capacity; prioritise the training on financial and per-formance management staff; review the billing strategy, internal controls and work procedures of all the business units.

Water and sanitationAnglo Platinum has submitted application to Department of Water Affairs (DWA) for the increase of their grey water use license to 20 mega litre per day. DWA

is currently assessing the request and as such the planned R80 million for the refurbishment of Polokwane waste water treatment works will commence after the approval. An amount of R122 million has been budgeted through the Municipal In-frastructure Grant (MIG) for the provision-ing of water infrastructure in rural areas.

Lepelle Northern Water has submitted an application to DWA for the increase of water allocation to the city from the Ebenezer Scheme and Olifantspoort. Should the licenses be approved, it will take the entity at least 18 months for additional water to be supplied via Ebenezer at an estimated cost of R230 million and about 48 months to be able to abstract from Olifantspoort at an estimated cost of R1,2 billion.

Rural sanitationAn amount of R40 million has been budg-eted through the Municipal Infrastructure Grant (MIG) to construct more than 4 000 VIP toilets in rural areas of the municipal-ity. Department of Water Affairs through Lepelle Northern Water Board has also appointed a service provider to construct 2 000 VIP toilets to assist the municipal-ity with acceleration of backlog reduction during 2013/2014 financial year.

RoadsFor the 2014/2015 financial year an amount of R93 million has been budgeted for the construction of access roads in ru-ral areas. This amount includes R1 million for the construction of low level bridges, R17 million to continue with the second phase of the 19 km Silicon road and R10 million for the second phase of upgrading of Sebayeng to Mantheding arterial road as well as R5 million to rehabilitate roads in the Mankweng area.

Electricity The municipality is busy completing rural electrification projects which will benefit 1 804 households in Moletjie, 2 694 in Mankweng (including 882 households of Mankweng unit F) and 280 in Molepo/Chuene/Maja during the 2013/2014 finan-cial year. During the 2014/2015 financial year, an amount of R25 million has been allocated and electrification backlog will be reduced by more than 2 200 households.


In the midst of the current economic crisis reality has begun to set in with big names in the local busi-ness industry being forced to close doors due to the continuous negative impact of various factors such as negative growth as well as job and subsequent income loss in certain sectors.

With job creation being one of Polokwane Municipal-ity’s priorities the possible lifting of the moratorium on business development may soon bring some relief for residents and business owners.

During the State of City Address by Polokwane Exec-utive Mayor Freddy Greaver on Tuesday announced that a meeting will be conducted within a week to discuss the possible lifting of the mora-torium placed on develop-ment in May last year.

“Polokwane is showing bigger growth than the district. Urbanisation is com-mon in South Africa with people from other munici-palities flocking to Polok-wane in search for better employment. I can confirm discussions with the busi-ness sector to find ways of creating job opportunities. With the moratorium on development a halt was not only placed on construction but also on job creation,” Greaver explained.

With more people flock-ing into Polokwane the already dilapidated infra-structure will need serious

monitoring. The municipality

budgeted R122 million for water infrastructure and has submitted an application to the Department of Water Af-fairs to allocate more water to the city. The municipality further budgeted R6 million to refurbish the existing asbestos water pipe infra-structure.

The city’s roads will also be under more pressure but R93 million was budgeted for the construction of ac-cess roads in rural areas.

Polokwane Municipality will further work together with hawkers on city streets. “They need to enjoy the same protection as other businesses from the mu-nicipality in order to earn a living while improving the look and feel of the city,” Greaver said.

He also informed that the contract for the metered parking system will expire at the end of the year and that the municipality will from then take over and use the city’s own people to run the system successfully.

“The municipality is guilty of letting go of land for development. We have been selling land but from now on will find ways to develop land to create more value to the city,” Greaver said add-ing that the municipality will also engage in agricultural skills development in all clusters in order to transfer information to the rural areas for people to make a proper living.

A growing list of local security companies is threatening with an urgent court applica-tion to force the provincial government

to stop 28 tenders of R1,2 billion awarded to companies for security services to four depart-ments over a period of three years if their demand for intervention is not met by tomor-row (Friday).

A request for intervention was directed to Premier Stan Mathabatha after the second of two batches of tenders for the provision of se-curity services to the Departments of Provincial Treasury, then Roads and Transport, Educa-tion and Health over a three-year period was made public by the Department of Provincial Treasury on 6 June. The first batch of suc-cessful bidders was made public by the same department on 8 November last year.

The total monthly expenditure payable to the 14 companies among the first batch amounts to little over R18 million and to the remainder of the companies in the second to more than R16 million a month. Over the three-year period it would come to a figure of R1 255 702 482,72.

Copying Polokwane Observer on a letter to Mathatbatha and his office last Thursday, the individuals set a deadline for a mid-morn-ing meeting the following day. After a meeting with Provincial Government spokesperson Phuti Seloba on the Premier’s behalf they were informed to provide relevant information for the Premier to take up during a meeting with Chief Administrator Monde Tom’s team appar-ently set for yesterday (Wednesday).

According to information no meeting was scheduled with Tom, neither did the matter serve on an agenda for a routine meeting with the Premier.

It was learnt that the concerned group of company representatives intended seeking re-lief from the courts by Tuesday if their request

for action by the Premier is not adhered to and confirmed in writing by tomorrow.

Polokwane Observer was also copied on earlier correspondence to Provincial Treasury wherein the department was warned that the awarding of the tenders would be challenged through a court interdict. On the same day access was requested to information pertain-ing to the tenders, which was never received, it was learnt.

One of the company representatives pointed out alleged tender price fixing in the documents at hand that seems evident to the untrained eye. Referring to the second batch of tenders made public two weeks back, he stressed that various companies submitted ex-actly the same amounts for services to be ren-dered. The amounts were submitted by two to three different security companies with headquarters in different provinces. Another worrisome factor for the security companies was that the majority of companies bidding for the tenders were located in Gauteng, Mpumalanga and KwaZulu-Natal, in essence meaning that resources were destined to leave the province and tenders allegedly being awarded against regulations. Among the first batch of successful bidders only two compa-nies tendered the same amounts to the last cent.

The source further raised the point that the second lot of tenders was awarded after an extension period lapsed. Another issue of concern was the fact that the Department of Roads and Transport has been split, which would mean that the tenders pertaining to the erstwhile department could not be relevant anymore, the source pointed out.

A request for comment by the Department of Provincial Treasury was directed to the administrative team, who undertook to get back to Polokwane Observer after the set deadline for feedback despite a complaint that time limitations would not afford them a fair right of reply.

Die bestuurders van twee voertuie is noodlot-tig beseer in ‘n grusame ongeluk wat Sater-dagmiddag op die N1 naby die afrit na Protea Hotel Ranch Resort plaasgevind het.

André Myburgh, produksiebestuurder van ‘n besigheid in die Waterpoort-omgewing en die bestuurder van ‘n Ford dubbelkajuitbak-kie het volgens sy vrou, Hermien in die rigting van Polokwane gery toe die bestuurder van ‘n aankomende Volkswagen Polo eers die pad aan die linkerkant verlaat het en toe regoor die pad beweeg en reg van voor met Myburgh se bakkie gebots het. Die enigste passasier in die bakkie, Gerhardt Dettmann, is met veelvuldige

beserings in die hospitaal opgeneem maar is reeds ontslaan en sterk tuis aan. Die bestuur-der van die Volkswagen Polo was William Ramautla.

Hermien was ‘n passasier in ‘n ander voer-tuig wat net voor die bakkie gery en gesien het hoe haar man verongeluk het. Die Myburghs, wat drie seuns van nege, vyf en vier jaar het, was jarelange inwoners van Polokwane en het ongeveer twee jaar gelede na Waterpoort verhuis. Sy sê almal wat André geken het, sal hom onthou as ‘n fantastiese mens wat mense om hom se harte geraak het.

Polokwane Police confirmed on Tuesday that the case of fraud opened against Polokwane Munici-pal Manager Connie Mametja was referred to the office of the Direc-tor of Public Prosecutions (DPP) for a decision.

Polokwane Police’s Lesiba Ra-moshaba confirmed the case was opened at the local Police station on Friday, 23 May.

“I can also confirm that the case has now been referred to the DPP for a decision on whether the complainant has a legal and rightful case against Mametja,” Ramoshaba said.

This follows after one of the bidders and objectors of the R45 million Motor City development, Glen Matsaung opened a case of fraud against Mametja relating to the alleged furnishing of a fraudu-lent special power of attorney

signed on 26 October 2012 whilst the application by PEB Proper-ties (Pty) Ltd for this document was only signed five days later. The resolution for application for the township establishment was authorised by the directors of PEB Properties (Pty) Ltd, the bid winning company, on 31 October 2012.

In previous reports Matsaung was quoted to have said that according to law no contracts or special power of attorney can be backdated. According to the extract in the minutes of the di-rectors’ meeting of PEB Properties (Pty) Ltd held in Polokwane on 31 October 2012 it was resolved that the company applied for a special power of attorney to the Polo-kwane Municipality.

Municipal Spokesperson Malesela Maubane on Tuesday said that the municipality’s legal department had still not received any information regarding this matter.

Atletiekklub (PAC) en Ounooi Breedt was besig met hulle gewone oggenddrafsessie toe hulle oorval is deur twee verdagtes wat Jacobs vier keer met ‘n mes gesteek het. Jacobs se vrou, Ansonia verduidelik dat haar man twee keer in sy rug, een keer in sy ribbes en een keer deur sy long gesteek is. “Die twee mans het nog die vermetelheid gehad om na die voorval net weg te stap en nie eers weg te hardloop nie,”

Die Polokwane Munisipaliteit beplan om ekstra boorgate in die Bloedrivier te sink ten spyte van die onlangse rioolstorting in dié rivier.

Polokwane se uitvoerende burgemeester, Freddy Greaver het Dinsdag tydens sy stadsrede gesê dat ‘n span wat uit lede van die munisipaliteit, departement van waterwese, Capricorn Distriksmunisipaliteit en Lepelle Northern Water bestaan reeds gedurende die vorige finansiële jaar saamgestel is om waterprobleme in die stad aan te spreek.

Een van die span se planne behels die sink van ekstra boorgate in Bloedrivier, Westenburg en Sterkloop wat ‘n addisionele 10 megaliter water

per dag aan die stad kan voorsien. Bestaande boorgate sal ook opgradeer word wat verdere 8 megaliter water per dag aan die stad sal voorsien.

Die Polokwane Munisipaliteit het die versekering gegee dat die stukkende pyp by die Seshego rioolaanleg, wat vir rioolstorting in die rivier verantwoordelik was, herstel is. Transvaalse Landbouunie van SuidAfrika Noord (TLU SA Noord) se streekvoorsitter, Drickus Botha sê al is die pyp herstel, sal dit nie die rivier van riool reinig nie. “Ons is tans in ‘n droë seisoen en al sou dit reën, sal die rivier nie skoon kom nie. Trouens, reën sal net die besoedeling vererger,” sê hy.

Botha sê verder die munisipaliteit moet dringende stappe neem om die besoedelde rivier skoon te maak. “Baie mense stroomaf en veral langs

die Sandrivier is van gehalte water vir besproeiing en veesuipings afhanklik. Dit besoedel ook ondergrondse waterbronne. Ons kan tereg vra of ons eers moet wag vir ‘n tragedie soos in Bloemhof voor die owerhede optree,” sê Botha.

Intussen het ‘n plaaslike waterdeskundige, wat verkies om anoniem te bly gesê hy moes onlangs water in die Bloedrivier toets vir ‘n skooltaak van ‘n leerder.

“Bloedrivier is vrot van die rou riool en selfs babers, wat geharde visse is, vrek,” sê hy.

Munisipale woordvoerder, Malesela Maubane het verlede week die versekering gegee dat die pyp herstel is en dat die munisipaliteit die situasie sal monitor om so gou moontlik verdere lekkasies te voorkom.

sê Ansonia. Die voorval kon ‘n tragiese einde gehad het indien die Here nie sy hand van beskerming oor Sean gehad het nie, het sy gesê.

“Twee engele in ‘n bakkie het sekondes na die aanval langs hulle gestop en vir Sean op hulle bakkie gelaai en na Mediclinic Limpopo gehaas. Alhoewel ons nie hulle name kon kry om hulle te bedank nie is ons steeds ewig dankbaar dat daar nog goeie Samaritane in ons samelewing is,” vertel Ansonia wat besef het dat

haar man sy lewe kon verloor het oor ‘n paar tekkies en ‘n selfoon.

Jacobs is Sondagmiddag ontslaan en sterk tans by die huis aan. “Alhoewel hy nog baie pyn het, gaan dit hom glad nie afskrik van sy oggenddrafsessies nie,” vertel Ansonia dankbaar oor sy vinnige herstel.

PAC se voorsitter, Johan Janse van Vuuren is vreeslik ontstoke oor die voorval.

“Die polisie is nie sigbaar genoeg nie en daarom dink die boosdoeners

hulle kan wegkom met moord,” sê Janse van Vuuren.

Volgens Lesiba Ramoshaba van die Polokwane polisie moet drawwers altyd die kernreëls vir veilige drafroetines volg.

“Moet nooit met waardevolle items gaan draf nie, los jou selfoon en geld eerder tuis. Dit is altyd beter om in groter groepe te draf as een of twee persone want dan word die moontlikheid van aanvalle drasties verminder,” is Ramoshaba se advies.

Burst water pipes have become a regular occurrence in the city due to the ageing water supply infrastructure. Yet another spectacular incident of thousands of litres of water being spilled occurred last Thursday when a pipe burst at the University of South Africa’s (Unisa) Polokwane Campus in Landdros Maré Street.

Pedestrians had to scatter for shelter from the spraying water and the entrance to the parking area at Unisa had to be closed until the pipe was repaired. Municipal workers were quick to respond to the burst that occurred less than a block from the Civic Centre.

The municipal workers however failed to replace the paving bricks at the entrance to the parking lot causing possible danger to pedestrians and vehicles. At the time of going to print the Polokwane Municipality had not commented on the matter.

Residents from the city can report any burst water pipes on 015 290 2376.

As flames raged through a part of the for-mer Oasis Lodge Polokwane on Sunday, dedicated fire fighters from the local fire

department donned their protective gear and engaged in a mission to prove their worth.

Another fire at Oasis Lodge Polokwane

Muni plans second biggest cycling race for city RC MyBURGH>>[email protected]

Polokwane Municipality plans to host the sec-ond biggest cycling race in the country.

This was announced by Polokwane Execu-tive Mayor Freddy Greaver during his State of the City Address on Tuesday after recognis-ing three local athletes Rufus Photo, Ludwick Mamabolo and Matinique Potgieter for their outstanding performance during this year’s Comrades Marathon.

Greaver said Polokwane’s surrounds of-fer the ideal venue to host a major cycling race. “We have already engaged with cycling entities in the city to start discussions on the race that will follow the route from Polokwane to Tzaneen via George’s Valley and back to Polokwane via Magoebaskloof,” he said. The envisaged two day event will comprise a road race and a mountain bike race through the local game reserve.

The projected prize money for the winners in the men’s and women’s categories will make it the second biggest race in South Africa. “Not only will this race attract thousands of visitors, it will also mean a huge financial injection to local businesses,” he said.

Property owner Abdul Essack explains that they were very lucky that the lodge is no longer operational as the estimated damage to the establishment and the possible danger to lives would have been much greater. “The fire started near Pepps College and jumped over to our property where it ravaged some veld before moving on to two rondavels which thankfully, due to the lodge being closed, was unoccupied at the time of the fire,” Essack explained. Essack added that this is the third fire that Oasis Lodge Polokwane has suffered in the past ten years; the first was in 2004, followed by another in 2012 and then the lat-est over the weekend.

The dedicated officers of the Polokwane Fire Department, despite being based on the other side of the city and having to traverse the long weekend traffic, were on the scene within 20 min-

utes of being alerted. Members of Working on Fire joined to lighten the burden of the local fire fighters who by then had been ardently fighting and putting out flames for over an hour already. Together these two teams not only ensured the fire in the af-fected area were killed but also made sure the rondavels were fully extinguished by removing the grass from all the roofs after the fires had been killed.

Malesela Maubane from the Polokwane Municipality said the rescue workers employed by the Polokwane Municipality are always ready to assist the community and the incident on Friday attests to their readiness to handle any situation they are faced with. “Their reaction time was spot-on and their readiness proves they are able to handle all situations they are faced with,” Maubane concluded.

The Limpopo Police have issued a stern warning to traditional surgeons who plan to run unauthorised initiation schools this

season.Countrywide illegal, negligent and incompe-

tent initiation practices have in the past been the cause of numerous deaths among initiates. In Limpopo the House of Traditional Leaders continue to caution against such practices and in conjunction with the Department of Coop-erative Governance, Human Settlements and Traditional Affairs (Coghsta) monitors strictly the activities of approved initiation schools as well as suspected and reported illegal schools.Coghsta recently announced that a total of 311 applications to conduct initiation schools this year were received of which 275 were approved and 36 declined. The province’s initiation season is set to run from tomorrow (Friday) until 18 July.

A media statement released by Provincial Police Commissioner, Fannie Masemola an-

nounced that surgeons performing initiation procedures without the required certificate of fitness issued by a medical practitioner will meet the mighty hand of the law. “We will work hand in glove with all relevant stakehold-ers to ensure that no casualties are reported in the province,” the statement read.

Masemola also mentioned that they will not tolerate the abduction of boys the schools under the disguise of culture and tradition. “Those found to be forcefully dragging inno-cent boys to circumcision schools will also face the wrath of the law and police will be on the lookout for that,” stressed Masemola.

Coghsta Spokesperson Mutupa Selomo has assured that all systems are ready for this year’s initiation season. “We have a provincial joint committee comprising the Department of Health and South African Police Services to oversee and monitor the smooth running of the schools and curb any unbecoming and criminal behaviour. We are still calling parents to verify the legitimacy of the initiation school with their local traditional authorities before sending their children there,” Selomo said.

Condolences have been streaming in following the sudden passing of freedom fighting stalwart Edward “Tolman” Adams over the week-end. Adams is described by family, friends and associates as the most unifying personality they have had the privilege to know.

“He was always a fighter for unity, albeit around his commu-nity or within the structures of his family where he willingly and

proudly filled the shoes of the last Adams in a lineage of a generation of forefathers,” his nephew Jacob Adams, better known for his role as Provincial Secretary for the Na-tional Education Health and Allied Workers Union, attested.

The 87-year-old Edward passed away on Sunday following a short sick bed. The funeral and memorial service will be held at the Adams homestead in Makgobeng Village, Moletji on Saturday. For more information on the proceedings contact Jacob on 082 558 5966.

Die jaarlikse eerbetoon ter nagedagtenis aan die slagoffers van plaasaanvalle het weer op Jeugdag by die bekende Witkruismonument plaasgevind.

Die geleentheidspreker was Werner Weber, oudlid van die Volksraad (LV) en bekende boer van Piet Retief wat met sy besonderse aanbieding geboei het. Hy het gesê die stryd om die Afrikanerkultuur uit te bou sal voort-gaan, net soos die stryd om die kultuurvlam

brandend te hou.Hy het bygevoeg dat oorlewendes van

plaasaanvalle selde die letsels van die ver-woesting, vernedering en marteling kan verwerk en later sterf, nie noodwendig weens fisieke letsels nie, maar weens geestelike aftakeling.

“Nieteenstaande die wreedheid van meeste plaasaanvalle word dit deur die SAPD, asook die regering van die dag as gewone misdaad en diefstal beskryf. Dit is totale miskenning van die gewelddadigheid en doelgerigte terrorise-ring van slagoffers,” het hy gesê.

CRIME shortsFake professionals nabbedThe Police in Burgesfort have arrested a 27-year-old man who allegedly masqueraded as a labour broker, defrauding several people of an undisclosed amount of cash and promis-ing them jobs in the mining sector. The suspect collected R1 000 from each victim under the pretext that he was organising the services of a medical doctor to examine them before they could go underground. Hangwani Mulaudzi from the Limpopo Police said the suspect will appear in court soon facing charges of fraud and that Police investigations are ongoing, with scores of victims surfacing.

In a separate incident 31-year-old Wesley Gashane Kapa was remanded in custody after appearing in the Bochum Magistrate’s Court on Tuesday. Kapa allegedly pretended to be a medical doctor deployed by the national Department of Health to provide services, together with his intervention team at the Helene Franz Hospital. Mulaudzi said he is also accused of allegedly defrauding unsuspect-ing victims of their cash, with the amounts fraudulently stolen ranging between R400 and R8 000, paid for the promise of jobs. Mulaudzi says the money was allegedly deposited into the suspects’s bank account. “Kapa, who called himself Dr Mashudu Netshidoni, is facing 11 cases of fraud and will be appearing in court again on Thursday (today),” Mulaudzi con-firmed.

More rhino poachers arrestedA joint operation between the Limpopo Crime Intelligence Unit and the Vaalwater Detective Unit led to the arrest of three suspected rhino poachers over the weekend. Hangwani Mu-laudzi from the Limpopo Police said the three suspects were allegedly on their way to poach rhinos in the Vaalwater area.

“A Toyota Tazz, a .416 rifle with a silencer, an axe and a saw were seized from the sus-pects. A multi-disciplinary team of intelligence officials, specialised detectives and nature conversation has been formulated to deal with rhino poaching in the province,” Mu-laudzi stated. The suspects are currently being profiled to see if the possibility exists that they can be linked to previous rhino poaching cases in the province. They are expected to appear on Wednesday in the Vaalwater Magistrate’s Court.

Explosives found at Beitbridge BorderLimpopo Police and the Beitbridge Border Control Police have once again found a suspect carrying detonators and cartridges into Lim-popo at the Beitbridge Border Post.

Hangwani Mulaudzi from the Limpopo Police said the female suspect (41) was arrested on Friday in possession of 40 detonators and 40 cartridges.

The explosives were allegedly found inside a bag belonging to the suspect and others were allegedly found on her body while she was attempting to cross to South Africa on foot. “The suspect is currently being detained pending further investigations and will be ap-pearing in court soon,” Mulaudzi confirmed.

Grandmother and child strangled to deathTwo suspects have been arrested in Seshego following the murder of a 75-year-old fe-male and a five-year-old child earlier in June. Hangwani Mulaudzi from the Limpopo Police said the victims were found strangled to death in their house in Moletji and that nothing had been stolen.

The suspects, aged 26 and 36, were ar-rested in Moletji by members of the Seshego Detectives Unit and a motive for the killings has not yet been established. The two sus-pects will appear in court next week and are yet to plead.

Illegal firearm suspects in courtThe Mankweng Magistrate’s Court on Tuesday denied bail to two suspects who were ar-rested after they were found in possession of an illegal firearm over the weekend. The two, Mahlatse Mapheto (20) and Tshepo Bothabo-tha (20) will remain in Police custody until their appearance on June 26 when they will make a formal bid for bail.

“Police were doing their normal raids at a tavern in Mankweng when they found a firearm which was robbed from an off-duty Police officer earlier in June. The officer was trying to locate the keys to open the gate of his Mankweng Zone 1 home when two men overpowered him, stabbed him several times before searching his car and fleeing with his service pistol,” Hangwani Muladzi from the Limpopo Police confirmed.

In die lig van toenemende druk op geor-ganiseerde landbou om met werkbare planne vorendag te kom om grondhervorming in die land te verwesenlik, het Agri Limpopo dit nodig geag om die debat oor dié kwessie in Limpopo te fasiliteer.

Agri Limpopo-president, Leon Borcherds, sê die organisasie stel dit met die werkswinkel ten doel om grondhervormingsrisiko’s aan

boere en die staat uit te wys, mandate aan onderhandelaars oor die kwessie te gee en die proses van werkbare planne aan die rol te kry.

Borcherds het ‘n beroep op kommersiële en opkomende boere gedoen om die geleent-heid by te woon. “Ons het almal se insette, raad en wysheid nodig,” het hy gesê.

Die werkswinkel word Woensdag (25 Junie) om 09:00 by Protea Hotel Ranch Resort gehou. Vir meer inligting skakel Agri Limpopo by [email protected] of 015 590 1024.

>> Limpopo Ministers’ Fra-ternal advocates for work of community-based organisations in Limpopo>> Concerns over transport being problematic, limited dining space and supplies being insufficient YOLANDE NEL>>[email protected]

Tucked away in a quiet spot in Ga-Dikgale Maganyane is an oasis in a barren desert well worth mentioning.

At Batlaphela Bakone Service Centre, situated along a deserted stretch of road, 43 elderly members from the community gather three times a week to get treated to healthy eating, have their laundry done, receive coun-selling and therapy for weary limbs as well as engage in crafts, sporting activities and cultural encounters. Ten more men and women in need of physical care within a three-kilometre radius get visited at home by a team of dedi-cated volunteers who spread the good under the umbrella of a project initiated by Makgoshi Clara Dikgale in 2007. It is the only project of its kind in their village, according to Project Manager Florah Rapetsoa.

On a sunny Saturday morning nine of the elders gather to meet with Richard Selepe who is Chairperson of Limpopo Ministers’ Fraternal, an institution advocating the work of communi-ty-based organisations (CBOs) across Limpopo. Among the perimeters of the administrative office, a food garden, a space allocated for dining and a chicken run under construction they sing the praises of the committed staff attached to the centre and hope the centre would grow from strength to strength.

From a conversation with Rapetsoa and her team it is learnt that a piggery is in the planning on an adjacent premises and moringa trees on the far side of the premises will

ensure additional future income, as is cur-rently the case with the sunflower crop. They grow cabbage, beetroot and spinach used for cooking for the elderly and collected for sale by 17 drop-in centres in the area on Mondays, explains Project Coordinator Bheki Mathebula.

According to Rapetsoa they take care of pensioners staying alone, are neglected by their families or take care of their grandchil-dren. They are collected by driver Isaac Tauat-soala on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays mornings for a programme that comes to an end mid-afternoon. The oldest person in their care is a woman aged 104.

Working within their means they have con-cerns over transport being problematic, limited dining space and supplies being insufficient considering a R24 000 quarterly allocation by the Department of Social Development and Welfare, Rapetsoa stresses. Also the food gar-den is not run based on skills obtained through training, but on common sense, she says. Adding her voice is CBO Coordinator Makgomo Mathete, who mentions that an inadequate stipend demands of workers in essence to volun-teer their services.

Weekly gatherings in a safe environment afford the women to do beading, crafts and cro-chet work with material purchased in Polokwane. Their handiwork later gets sold to the commu-nity, it is learnt. Otherwise time is spent doing aerobics, storytelling and traditional dancing.

Selepe says Limpopo Ministers’ Fraternal is thrilled with the work done by traditional leaders like Dikgale in improving the lives of communities. They call upon the business community to join hands with Limpopo Min-isters’ Fraternal in supporting such initiatives and institutions or organisations like the South African National Civic Organisation (Sanco) to lobby for financial support, either from govern-ment or the private sector. As Chairperson of the Motsepe Foundation Development Forum in the Capricorn District, he further says they trust that institutions like the Motsepe Foundation will find it profitable to invest in this type of project in fighting poverty, inequality and unemployment.

After a treat in the form of a traditional story in a native narrative shared by one of the keep-ers of tradition, visitors are sent off with a hint of homebrew... cherry-cheeked tomatoes fresh from the garden.

The National Education, Health and Allied Workers Union (Nehawu) in the province in-tends calling on the African National Congress (ANC) in Limpopo to remove all mayors not committed to delivering services to communi-ties across the province.

In a statement following a recent Provincial Executive Committee (PEC) meeting charac-terised by frank and robust discussions on as-sessing political, international, socio-economic and organisational issues, Nehawu Provincial Secretary Jacob Adams said those mayors had to be removed and be held accountable for poor service delivery and community service delivery protests.

Further referring to the section 100(1)(b) intervention, Adams said the province had a new cabinet and was in a sound financial situa-tion to run on its own, therefore the demand for the administrators to be recalled.

At the same time he referred to staff short-ages at all levels of the public service in the province and departmental employees who in

some instances were misplaced and are not doing what they were employed to do. He said the situation led to the morale of public serv-ants being negatively affected.

Two days after chairing the PEC meeting former Nehawu Provincial Chairperson Mike Shingange was elected as First Deputy Presi-dent of the national structure.

Union intends demand for recall of mayors


During its recent Provincial General Council (PGC) the South African National Civic Organisation (Sanco) in Limpopo expelled its former secretary and deputy chairperson after an earlier suspen-sion. The structure also replaced its treasurer.

According to Sanco Provincial Chairperson Mesina Masekoameng the two officials, Jack Maphoso and Lutanyane Denge, were suspended by the Provincial Executive Com-mittee (PEC) a month after the January national conference for defying the leadership voted in at that occasion. He said they were replaced by Theophilus Makola and Promise Kutama. Dudu Ramaila was elected as new Provincial Treasurer, he added.

Masekoameng, who serves on the Agriculture portfolio committee of the

provincial Legislature, aired the view that position-mongers were problematic to the organisation in the province. He expressed the belief that with the new office-bearers in place they would be able to build a united structure in Limpopo. He referred to a decision taken at the PGC to work closely with Limpopo Ministers’ Fraternal in future to have

participation of church representa-tives in committees. Also with re-gards to ongoing protest action they would want to discourage communi-ties to damage state property during such unrest. Instead Sanco should lead protests to limit unnecessary action, Masekoameng stressed.

Currently Sanco Limpopo’s efforts were directed at preparations for a national general council in December where they would be given direc-tion on dealing with the 2016 local government elections when Sanco would support the African National Congress (ANC), Masekoameng said.

A mere seven months since the grand opening of Adega Polokwane, this restaurant has fast become a firm fa-vourite for seafood, Portu-guese food lovers and wine enthusiasts alike.

The newest favourite that has recently been added to the Adega Polokwane menu is the seafood skewer priced af-fordably at R127. This skewer combines all the best tastes on offer by placing King Prawns, calamari tubes, King-klip, green bell peppers and onions on a large skewer and drizzling it with the secretly blended lemon butter sauce that has proven to be a firm favourite amongst patrons

since its introduction on the Espatada-skewer. The seafood skewer is served with your choice of rice, vegetables or chips ensuring a huge plate to satisfy even the biggest seafood appetite.

The perfect accompani-ment to the perfect meal has always been the cherry on top, able to make or break a meal completely. At Adega Polokwane this is definitely not a problem. The vast array of local, imported and exclu-sively chosen wines, ordered straight from the suppliers complement each and every meal on the menu perfectly. Some of the favourite wines sold per bottle include Meer-lust, Nederburg, Van Loveren, KWV, Spier and Durbanville Hills. The experienced staff

Ciconia Vinho Verde, Festa Merlot, Lagosta Vinho Verde, Casillero del Diablo and vari-ous cultivars of Meerlust are among some of the popular wines available at Adega Polokwane.

Plaaslike skoonheid se voete vierkantig op moederaarde

FOtO: KEShia JanSEnS Van

REnSBURgLize Ernst is die

enigste Lim-popo-finalis

vir die Miss Common-

wealth Teen 2014-kom-

petisie.

KEShia J V REnSBURg>> [email protected]

Die feit dat Lize Ernst (16) nie haar eie beuel blaas of besef hoe pragtig sy is nie dra tot die skoonheid van die Miss Commonwealth- finalis by.

Dié trotse leerder van Curro Heuwelkruin se pad met die skoonheidskompetisie het gekruis nadat haar tannie besluit het sy is perfek om

aan die kompetisie deel te neem, nie net oor haar uiterlike skoonheid nie, maar haar hart van goud.

Dié jong dame presteer nie net op akademiese vlak nie, maar is ook n kranige Crossfit-atleet wat glo dat ‘n gesonde liggaam ‘n gesonde gees huisves. “Ek het nie baie tyd vir stok-perdjies nie omdat ek ‘n sportfanati-kus is wat vir die eerste hokkiespan

en die o.17A- netbalspan van Heuwelkruin uitdraf,” sê Ernst. Die Miss Commonwealth Teen-kompetisie vind jaarliks plaas en fokus nie net op die fisiese aspekte van ‘n skoonheid nie, maar op die projekte en bydrae wat sy as rolmodel in haar gemeenskap kan lewer en die welsynsprojekte waarby sy betrokke is.

Ernst, die enigste Limpopo-finalis en 23 ander finaliste gaan sake in Johannesburg op 29 Augustus uitspook waar die nuwe Miss Teen Commonwealth 2014 tydens die glansgeleent-heid gekroon sal word.

Een van die finaliste se doelwitte is die insameling van geld. Elkeen moet borge van besighede ter waarde van R3 500 bekom vir ver-skeie projekte wat aan die kompetisie gekoppel is. “Die instelling wat vanjaar baat vind is die Nel-son Mandela Kinderhospitaal in Johannesburg,” sê dié spontane graad 10-leerder wat beplan om ‘n Spadag aan te bied om geld vir die hospitaal in te samel. Die spadag word deur Ernst en vriendinne hanteer wat self die behandelings en pamperlangroetines sal behartig. Sy beplan ook om kolwyntjies en boereworsrolletjies by verskeie besighede in die stad te verkoop.



Motorliefhebbers kon hulle hierdie naweek verlustig in die World of Wheels Expo wat by Mall of the North gehou is.

Terwyl die gange en oop ruimtes binne die sentrum ‘n fees vir die oog van nuwe voertuie aangebied het, is ‘n uitstalling van besondere en skaars voertuie in die par-keerterrein gehou. Voertuie uit die vroeë twintigerjare het die be- langstelling geprikkel en nie teruggestaan vir jonger modelle en sportmotors wat die hele spektrum van handelsmerke oor die afgelope

100 jaar gedek het nie. Minder bekende fabrikate soos Hupmobile, Wolseley en Morris Minor het die nekke laat rek, terwyl hulle eie-naars byderhand was om inligting te verskaf. Geen motorskou is volledig sonder ‘n paar vuurwarm sportmotors nie en ‘n Jaguar E-type uit die sewentigs het net soveel aandag getrek as die skitterblink Porsche sportmotors.

Daar was selfs ‘n stokou “vaaljapie”-trekker wat een van die eerste trekkers is wat vir baie jare boere se regterhand was.

Volgens Arrie van Wyk, mede-organiseerder van die uitstalling en self eienaar van ‘n klomp veteraanmotors, was die skou ‘n reuse sukses wat beslis weer aangebied sal word.

Baie oues en nuwes by World of Wheels Expo


Die sentrumbestuur van Savan-nah Mall het Vrydag in aanloop tot Jeugdag ‘n jeug-pretdraf aangebied waartydens leer-ders in die inkopiesentrum se gange kragte gemeet het.

Die wedloop het uit tien aflosse van ongeveer 1,4 km bestaan. Sommige dele van die roete het ‘n hysbakrit en selfs die roltrappe ingesluit. Een van die reëls was dat atlete op die roltrap moes stilstaan.

Pietersburg Laerskool (PLS) het die laerskoolafdeling gewen met Pietersburg Comprehen-sive School (PCS) en Northern Academy Primary School on-derskeidelik in die tweede en

derde plek. Hoërskool Pietersburg (PHS)

het twee spanne ingeskryf en behoorlik stof in die ander se oë geskop met ‘n eerste en tweede plek en Northern Academy Secondary School was derde.

“Die wenspanne ontvang ‘n wisseltrofee wat in die skool-vakansie oorhandig sal word. Daar was 14 spanne en 10 skole wat aan die geleentheid deelgeneem het. Laerskool Pietersburg-Oos het ook ‘n onderwyserspan ingeskryf,” het Savannah Mall-bemarkings-bestuurder, Karen Botha, gesê.

Sy het ook die borge, Nando’s, Wimpy en Mugg & Bean bedank. Savannah Mall was die hoofborg.

van onder meer Pietersburg Vryburgers onder die leiding van Nico van Niekerk en Aggie Ströh, meer as R15 000 ingesamel vir die behoeftige leerders.

The usual display of pomp is expected to mark the second Legislature opening of the year scheduled for 26 June.

In the wake of the May elections, the open-ing of the Legislature is due to take place after Parliament opening on Tuesday evening with an address by President Jacob Zuma. The first provincial session was in February.

In Limpopo the official address delivered by Premier Stan Mathabatha will again take cen-tre stage, when he is due to speak on matters of concern to the people of the province. His address is expected to touch on highlights and headaches alike. Emphasis may most likely be

on challenges faced by the provincial govern-ment as well as its achievements, the long awaited exit of the team of national adminis-trators, developmental issues and investment efforts.

Premier’s spokesperson Kenny Mathivha told Polokwane Observer that Mathabatha would probably focus on the departure of the administrators, issues like economic develop-ment and job creation drivers, following up on his mention of rallying organs of civil society in support of sporting codes and the hosting of a sporting indaba, dealing with learner material and improved matric results, service delivery expectations at local government level as well as societal matters reflecting on the moral fibre of society.

Second Legis opening for year

Moontlike OTM-sindikaat in BodorpKESHIA J V RENSBURG>> [email protected]

Outomatiese Tellermasjien (OTM)-gebruikers word dringend gewaarsku om veral saans oplettend te wees wanneer hulle geld in die stad trek.

Hierdie waarskuwing volg op ‘n epos wat gesirkuleer is om OTM-gebruikers te waarsku oor ‘n moontlike voorval by ‘n vulstasie in Mar-shallstraat waar ‘n wit Volkswagen Polo met vier insittendes mense by die tellermasjiene beroof het. Daar word beweer dat die voertuig verlede week by die roof van ‘n kaart en R4 000 kont-ant by die vulstasie naby die Floraparkdam betrokke was en dat een van die insittendes, volgens getuies, ‘n oorpak soos deur munisi-pale werkers gedra word, aangehad het.

Die voorval kon egter nie deur die Polo-kwane Polisie bevestig word nie.

Opmerksaamheid is volgens Lesiba Ra-moshaba van die Polokwane Polisie die belang-rikste eienskap van ‘n OTM-gebruiker. “Ons is nie bewus van die spesifieke voorval waaroor die waarskuwende e-posse gaan nie, maar wil steeds die gemeenskap maan om hul veiligheid voorop te stel, veral as dit by geldtransaksies en OTM-masjiene kom.” Ramoshaba sê indien

so ‘n voorval met jou gebeur, moet die poli-sie dadelik in kennis gestel word sodat hul ‘n saak kan open en die verantwoordelike kriminele kan vastrek.

Ramoshaba sê David Mahlangu kan by 082 729 0077 en Andre Kotze by 082 414 2314 geskakel word oor enige voor-valle.

>> Programme bridges gap be-tween studies and employment>> Ultimate success is to place graduates with employersBARRY VILJOEN >>[email protected]

The Letamo Bridging Programme was officially launched at Bolivia Lodge on Friday to coin-cide with Youth Day. The young graduates that are currently on the programme attended the

celebration.Letamo is a six month bridging programme

offered by LH Education to assist young graduates to bridge the gap between formal education and employment.

The programme is currently running in Lim-popo and offers 58 graduates the opportunity to complete a work-readiness programme in the field of commerce.

The program provides for communication, technological and soft skills that have become a necessity in today’s work place. Letamo is financed by Fasset, the Finance and Accounting Sector Edu-cation and Training Authority.

The key note speaker was Tania Lee, Project Manager of Fasset.

Letamo provides companies and employers with the unique opportunity of acquiring employees who are work ready without having to advertise or pay a recruitment fee.

Prior to developing the programme, LH Educa-tion consulted with various employers in Limpopo to determine which skills are lacking and what they require from young professionals.

Letamo invites employers to actively partner with them to facilitate work placements of gradu-ates and to contact them on 012 347 4936 or at [email protected].

The provincial government has set aside R20 million to roll out a massive skills development

programme related to the provision of both financial and non-financial support to young entrepreneurs.

The announcement was made by Premier Stan Mathabatha during the Provincial Youth Day celebrations at Ephraim Mogale stadium in Water-berg district on Monday.

“We are going to expand our roll out of learnership and internship programmes for young graduates as a way of giving them the necessary workplace experience,” Mathabatha said.

“The country has entered the

second phase of transition. This phase is about radical economic transforma-tion. Without doubt this phase will require educated and skilled youths. We want young people to be educated so that they can be able to seize the many opportunities that are availed to them,” Mathabatha said.

Mathabatha further warned that if young people are not educated, pre-cious minerals such as our platinum and gold will be worthless for them. “We will still rely on some unscrupu-lous foreign powers to help us ben-eficiate our minerals. This will mean that our continent will remain a supplier of raw imported or finished goods,” Mathabatha warned.

“The truth of the matter is that when we export raw gold and platinum we are in a way exporting

thousands of jobs. The only way to stop this kind of trend is to use edu-cation to equip ourselves with the requisite knowledge to beneficiate these minerals ourselves,” Mathaba-tha added.

He also mentioned that govern-ment will continue to build schools and training colleges to support this skills revolution. “We currently have further education training colleges in every district of the province. We will also support students in these colleges with finan-cial assistance,” the Premier concluded.

KFC Polokwane through their national feeding initiative Add Hope, handed over a cheque worth R80 000 to Lethlan-thene Drop-in Centre in Blood River last Thursday.

The centre, one of 90 smaller com-munity initiatives around the country that benefit from the Add Hope Campaign, caters for 180 underprivileged children from Blood River and surrounds.

To contribute to this the initiative KFC customers can add R2 to every order they place.

“We are excited to hand over the cheque to the centre and we believe it will add value to the lives of the children who live there. With this money the management will be able to buy enough food for the children,” KFC Polokwane Local Store Marketing Manager, Cheray van Blerk said.

Bridgett Mokgashi, Managing Director of Lethlanthene Drop-in Centre said the money will certainly improve the living conditions of the children at the facility. “We have 180 children who are making use of the centre and sometimes we can-not cater for them all. With this money we will be able to buy enough food for everyone,” Mokgashi said

The Add Hope campaign started in 2009 and it has since raised R183 million with every donation going directly the designated beneficiaries countrywide.

There is reason for dads to celebrate because Great Wall Motors (GWM) Polokwane an-nounced that their Father’s Day special

which offers a R10 000 cashback reward has been extended when you buy a GWM C50T.

The C50T, GWM’s new family sedan is well worth the encounter. This four door sedan is set to create quite a stir on Limpopo’s roads. It is elegantly designed and the two models, Luxury or Elite are luxuriously comfortable while putting your safety and driving enjoyment first. Whether you drive it through peak-hour traffic, cart the children around or hit the open road on a family vacation, the C50T will make your journeys safe, rewarding and memorable.

Second glances come standard with the C50T. If you love being behind the steering wheel of a good looking car, you will find that the C50T ticks all the boxes in the looks department. Its sleek contours give it an air of sophistication, whilst subtle chrome finishes add a contemporary feel. It is not a car that goes unnoticed with its extended body; smart 16” alloy wheels and twin chrome-tipped exhaust pipes. If you spend a lot of time in your car, you will definitely appreciate the spaciousness. With elegant seats the C50T has plenty of legroom in the front and back, a 60:40 rear seat and a boot capacity of 530 litres to hold your luggage with ease. The C50T also boasts many features what will turn you into its number one fan. Over and above essential must-haves like air-conditioning, power steering and

electric windows, the C50T also offers you many other creature comforts. It furthermore offers state-of-the-art radio/CD/MP3 player with USB and auxiliary ports and six speaker system.

The C50T is equipped with a brand new Euro V-compliant GW4G15T, 1,5-litre turbo petrol engine. It will give you 93 kW of power at 5 600 rpm, the same output expected from a 2,0 litre engine. Not only is the C50T one of the most powerful cars in its class, you’ll also feel its fuel economy in your pocket thanks to an estimated fuel consumption of only 7,4 litres per 100 km. But when it comes to putting your foot down, the C50T will jump into action with 188 Nm of torque over a revolution range from 2 000 to 4 500 rpm. The five speed manual transmission with front wheel drive ensures dynamic handling.

Any father would like to keep his family safe and a number of clever safety features in the C50T assist the driver in doing so. Its strong cage-like body structure forms a safety cell which protects the driver and passengers on impact. Safety systems like ABS with EBD ensure smooth and prompt braking in less than perfect road con-ditions.

In keeping with the current cold weather Mercurius Motors Polokwane created a winter land theme with snow and pale

trees as backdrop to the introduction of the all new Mercedes-Benz C-Class to residents of Polokwane.

Delicious pancakes and soup complemented the event on Friday as guests were able to warm up from the inside. The new C-Class is a saloon designed to appeal to all senses. With a design idiom and flowing, precise lines that embody sophisticated sportiness the new C-Class is eager to make a difference in the luxury vehicle segment.

The front end of the new C-Class is an exciting mix of elegant design and innovative Mercedes-Benz technology, a case in point being the optional air panel for the Exclusive line, including a shutter that opens and closes using a refined mechanism to optimise the aerodynamics to suit the current situation. The coupé-like silhouette is fluid with clean lines, sculptural surfaces and contours which culmi-nate into the sporty rear end.

The interior is as impressive as the exterior. It is captivating and intelligent with a head-up display system. Information hovers above the bonnet two meters in front of your eyes. It is very pleasant and enhances safety as the driver receives key information as a glance without having to take his eyes of the road. The new C-Class further offers a touchpad with multitouch sensor system which is an integral component of the Audio 20 CD and COMAND Online system. This system can even decipher the letters or numbers in the driver’s handwrit-ing. Incidentally the touchpad is the first ever to be able to control all the functions of an infotainment system based on gestures alone.

To make the car more efficient, Mercedes-Benz developed highly sophisticated drive technologies that are both powerful and eco-nomical. The engine range is a C220 BlueTEC diesel (125 kW), C180 (115 (kW) and C200 (135 kW) petrol engines. Everyone of the engines for the new C-Class is already driven by one form of renewable energy: the power of innovation.

Like the BlueTEC diesel engine with excep-tionally low harmful emissions. Complex catalytic converter technology reduces nitrogen oxides substantially, making driving literally one of the purest of joys. In the case of petrol engines, measures such as the combination of exhaust gas turbo charging with direct injection and an enhanced combustion process reduce both fuel consumption and emissions, so much so that the new C-Class already meets the requirements of the Euro 6-emissions standard.

Mercedes-Benz was the world’s first auto-motive manufacturer to develop an integral safety concept. Safety features on the new C-Class include Attention Assist, Active Lane Keeping Assist, Active Blind Spot Assist and Collision Prevention Assist.

To view the new C-Class or to book a test drive visit Mercurius Motors on the corner of Nelson Mandela Drive and Grobler Street, Mo-tor City or call them on 015 299 9500.

MEC for Sport, Arts and Culture, Nandi Ndalane described the members of Vhakhegula Vhakhegula (Golden Old-

ies) Soccer team as trendsetters and the pride of the country and the province before they jetted off to Brazil on Friday.

Four members, Phuti Montana, Tsatsawane Makondo, Anna Kgofela, Onica Ndovela ac-companied by the founder and co-founder of the club Beka Ntsanwisi and Timothy Madiba-na have spent the past week in Brazil during the 2014 Fifa World Cup tournament.

They will watch two World Cup group matches at the Maracana Stadium in Rio de Janeiro and will get to visit Sugarloaf Moun-tain, some of the World Cup fan parks as well as taste the culture and cuisine of Brazil.

“The grannies have set the trend in our country. Before them, no one in our country ever thought of old people playing soccer. We are proud to have such a team in the province, indeed they have set the trend in the country,” Ndalane said during the team’s send off ceremony at Olympic Towers on Friday.

In a media statement issued by main sponsor, Coca-Cola the company’s Marketing

Director, Sharon Keith is quoted to have said the grannies have shown that there are no age limits in football and no social barriers; that football brings people together all over the world and can change lives. “The Gogos embody the message that is at the heart of the Fifa World Cup. Everyone joins together to celebrate the Fifa World Cup. It belongs to everyone, wherever you are, whoever you support and no matter your age,” the state-ment read.

Coca-Cola was so inspired by Beka and her team that they decided to surprise them by arranging a special red carpet visit by the Fifa World Cup Trophy to their training ground in Giyani during its Trophy Tour last year.

The Grannies were so overcome with joy at having the trophy visit them that Coca-Cola then surprised them with the chance to go to experience this year’s World Cup tournament in Brazil.

Team member Annah Kgofela said she was excited be part of the team going to Brazil. “I am so happy that I will be in Brazil, the coun-try which is regarded by many as the home of football. It is a dream come true for me and some of my fellow players and we are looking forward to a once in a lifetime experience.”

The team is expected back in the country tomorrow (Friday).

The Sheriff’s office at the Seshego Magistrate’s Court celebrated World Sheriff’s Day by hand-ing out food hampers to 200 needy families in the area last Thursday.

The initiative between the Sheriff’s offices in Seshego, Polokwane, Bela-Bela and Thohoyan-dou identified disadvantaged families in their respective areas and as a gesture of goodwill handed out the food hampers to alleviate the plight of the poorer members of the communi-ty. The theme for World Sheriff’s Day was hu-

man rights and the food parcels put a smile on the faces of the needy community members.

The spokesperson for the Sheriff’s office in South Africa, Zainab Abrahmans said the Seshego initiative would not have been pos-sible without the assistance of Sent 2 Serve Ministries in Polokwane. The non-profit or-ganisation helped the various Sheriff’s offices in Limpopo to source and package the 200 food hampers prior to distribution on Thursday. Abrahmans went on the say that all the Sher-iff’s offices countrywide will be involved in simi-lar projects next year targeting disadvantaged communities in their areas of jurisdiction.

Show houses have been a part of life for estate agents for years and are regarded by most as an effective selling tool.

Spending a Sunday afternoon showing peo-ple around a neat, well presented home is the ideal way to showcase what’s on offer in order to generate interest in the property and serious buyers generally enjoy the freedom of viewing a property in their own time and as such will visit several show homes until they find exactly what they want. All in all, it looks like a win-win situation, but there are concerns.

Security issues are at the forefront of most South Africans’ minds and the fact that your home could be closely inspected during a show day is something worth considering. While there are thousands of innocent buyers who are genuinely looking for a new home, there are also those who visit show houses for all the wrong reasons. Agents tend to be very aware of this and it is rare to find a female agent willing to show a house on her own.

Savvy agents are also careful as to how many prospective buyers they allow into a home at any given time. The days in which prospective buyers could arrive in their hordes and wander around a property at whim are long gone. Most agents will only allow one couple at a time to view a property and will accompany them during the process.

Of course it’s not only on show days that sellers are vulnerable – the mere fact that agents have to show people around a home in order to get it sold can make the property a target for criminals. A recent reported case in Gauteng highlighted the dangers of allowing strangers into seller’s homes. A man targeted show houses and contacted individual agents to arrange private viewings.

The smooth operator managed to steal jewellery to the value of R25 000 from one home and money and an expensive watch from another. While it may be easy to point fingers at estate agents it pays to remember that crooks are notoriously sly and there will always be those who manage to slip through the cracks.

With that in mind, you should take extra precautions when your home is on the market.

Lock all jewellery and other valuables away. Don’t assume that because something is hid-den in a drawer that it will be safe. Do not leave cash lying around. Ask the agent if and how buyers are vetted. Ask the agent to sup-ply contact numbers for everyone viewing the property and insist that the agent remain with the buyers at all times while they are viewing the home.

Stay safe on property show days

>> Lock away all jewellery and other valuables >> Sellers and agents are opting to add a vir-tual tour to their online listings

Alert the agent concerned and the police immediately if you find something is missing.

With security in mind, many sellers and agents are opting to add a virtual tour to their online listings. This feature allows potential buyers to “walk around” a home before they decide that they need to view it in person – generally ensuring that only serious buyers enter a property that is for sale.

Wêreldberoemde Nederlandse orrelis, Martin Mans het verlede Dinsdagaand die gehoor gaande gehad met sy or-

relspel in die NG Kerk Moedergemeente.Die program het optredes deur plaaslike tal-

ent, waaronder die Laerskool Pietersburg-Oos se juniorkoor onder leiding van Rita Erasmus en sang deur die Ensemble Esprit onder leiding van Jannie Becker, ingesluit. Ensemble Esprit se besondere vertolking van Loof die Here van Pieter van der Westhuizen het selfs Mans beïndruk. Die solis van die aand was die jong J D van der Merwe en Pieter-Willie Becker se vertolking van Maurice Green se “Trumpet Tune”, met Mans as begeleier, het die gehoor aangegryp.

André du Plessis, vermaarde musikant van die stad wat al 36 jaar die orrel bespeel en orrelis by die NG Kerk Pietersburg-Noord is, sê: “Martin Mans se program was ‘n same-stelling van sy eie improvisasies van bekende komponiste soos Mozart, Bach en Beethoven, asook verskeie werke uit die Nederlandse volksliedereskat. Improvisasies op Psalm- en Gesangmelodieë het die veelsydigheid van

Befaamde internasionale orrelis in stad

die orrel ten toon gestel. Sy veelsydigheid was in elke improvisasie duidelik hoorbaar, sy dinamiese beheer van die pyporrel is ongeloof-lik en sy flambojante melodieë het telkens beïndruk.

“Mans se beheer van die registers, manuale en pedale het die gehoor sprakeloos gehad, veral met sy improvisasie van die bekende sekulêre melodieë soos Phantom of the Opera en Any dream will Do.

“Een van die groot hoogtepunte van die aand was Hoe groot is U met ‘n baie rustige inleiding en ‘n opbou na iets groots waar wel-luidende akkoorde afgewissel is met bekende melodieë terwyl elke noot presies op die regte plek was.

“Die aand is afgesluit met ‘n interessante verwerking van My Sarie Marais met die gehoor wat spontaan saamgesing het. In sy toegif het hy, heel komies vir die oomblik, fyn gespot deur die gehoor te vra om te gaan slaap deur verskeie wiegeliedere te speel.”

Die fondsinsamelingsprojek is deur Aka-demie Reformia gereël.

There’s a wealth of information out there for first-time home buyers. After all, they’re about to make the biggest financial commitment of their lives, and they probably know very little about the process. But what about second-time home buyers? They need information too.Second-time buyers should get prequalified for a loan from a bond originator so that they can house hunt with confidence.South Africa’s bond originator, ooba, offers a guide for homeowners buying their second home:What to do with the profit from the saleObviously, the biggest difference for second-time home-owners is that they already own a property. This can be advantageous in that there should be an increase in the property’s value, and that profit can serve as the deposit on the new home. There are, however, some caveats.Allison Dunbar, oobaelite club consultant, says if the proceeds for the deposit are coming from the sale of the existing property, it is not always possible to pay the deposit until those funds are available. It is then common practice to provide a guarantee of the funds awaited.It is always advisable to use the proceeds of the sale as a deposit on the second property as it will ensure a better interest rate and more favourable bank scoring because of the reduced risk.“On the other hand, some clients may elect to pay off debt to ensure affordability for a new bond payment, and could be advised to use some of the proceeds from the sale to pay off existing debt,” she says.Get prequalifiedAlthough you may think that you’re a shoe-in for bond approval the second time around because your financial situation has improved, don’t be too sure. “Lending criteria have changed and you may have taken on other forms of debt, which can affect your affordability,” says Dunbar.Second-time buyers should get prequalified for a loan from a bond originator so that they can house hunt with confidence, knowing what they can afford and that there are no credit listings against their name. She says ooba’soobaqualified service calculates affordability and helps you to deal with any shortfalls in this area. They also evaluate your credit rating and then assist you with rectifying any judgements against your name.Things have changed at the banksIf you bought your first home five or ten years ago, you will find that banks have tightened up significantly on the reductions in interest rates that they are willing to offer home loan applicants. “It is quite likely that when you apply for a new bond, you won’t get as favourable

an interest rate as you received on the previous bond,” says Dunbar.It is also tougher for self-employed applicants because banks are far more cautious with their lending criteria since the introduction of the National Credit Act. If you are self-employed, you will have to prove the sustain-ability of your new monthly commitment and provide adequate proof of earnings - another good reason to get prequalified.Conditional sale of your current homeMany second-time buyers will make an offer on their new home conditional on the sale of their existing home. This is necessary because it prevents the buyer from ending up having to pay a bond on two properties – which can be financially crippling. However, it can also make their offer on the new property less appealing. In most cases, the seller will continue to market the house.“If he continues to market the property, he may receive an unconditional offer and could put the original buyer on notice to dispense with the condition of sale of the existing property,” says Dunbar. “The buyer could apply for a mortgage loan to secure the full purchase price to be able to proceed with the sale without his existing property having to be sold – if he qualifies and if he can afford it.”She advises that while awaiting the sale of the existing property, the prospective buyer should still apply for bond finance on the new property, so that when the old property is sold, the new sale can be concluded without delay.Shop around for your new home loanEven if you have a good repayment record with your existing bank, it’s a good idea to shop around for the best deal on your new home loan. Sometimes one bank will only approve a loan of less than the bond you’re applying for. And it’s always worth comparing the interest rates offered, as a variance of even just half a percent can have a massive impact on your repayments in the long term.Bonds cannot be transferred from one property to another, so each home loan application is considered in isolation.“Bond originators will apply to multiple banks simultane-ously on your behalf, ensuring that you get the best deal on your home loan,” says Dunbar.Buying a second home can be just as daunting a process as buying your first - and equally exciting too. If you don’t cling to old assumptions and educate yourself about the process with the help of experts, you will find the process goes much more smoothly.

The Cancer Association of South Africa (Cansa) together with Nielsen, a leading global infor-mation and measurement company, highlight-ed cancer survivorship and the celebration of life as part of their Global Impact Day that took place at the Theunis Fichardt Hospitium and Care Home on Thursday.

Cancer survivors were addressed by fellow survivors who shared their experiences in surviving cancer and provided guidance and inspiration to those that are fighting cancer.

A media release issued by Cansa quoted act-ing Chief Executive Officer, Elize Joubert saying: “As June marks International Cancer Survivors’ Day, we’re excited to partner with Nielsen to cel-ebrate and show our support for cancer survivors who show us that life after a cancer diagnosis

can be meaningful, productive and even inspir-ing. That is something to celebrate.”

Cancer survivors were called upon to write messages on pieces of fabric that will be sewn together and used at Cansa’s offices and cen-tres as tablecloths, curtains and other useful articles.

Offering a place to stay while receiving cancer treatment, is one of the many ways in which Cansa helps cancer patients to cope with the effects of this awful disease. Patients receive meals and transport to treatment facilities at 12 centres countrywide. Cansa also provides audio compact discs (CD’s) giv-ing information and practical tips to promote physical, emotional and mental well-being before and during treatment. Cansa Mobiliser in Limpopo, Ria du Plessis can be contacted on 083 259 2790 for any further assistance or information.

>> Most childhood cancers are curable if detected earlyBARRY VILJOEN >>[email protected]

Silvia Croucamp, Nurse Clinical Officer and Trainer Coordinator for the Childhood Cancer Foundation SA (Choc), visited Polokwane on Friday to educate second year students of Limpopo Medi-Clinic about childhood cancer

and the early warning signs of cancer.

Croucamp ex-plained that cancer is the uncontrolled growth of cells in a particular organ of the body causing a growth or tumour that can spread to other parts of the body. Childhood can-cer is not so common and the incidence is about one in 650. The good news is however that most childhood cancers are curable if detected early. Unexplained fe-ver for more than two weeks, loss of appe-tite and weight, pallor (paleness), fatigue (tiredness) and easy bruising or bleeding in children may be signs of cancer and should immediately be referred to a doc-tor. A white spot in the eye, a squint or new blindness, bulg-ing eye mass, a lump, aching bones and back ache in children as well as slurred speech and a change or deterioration in walk or balance, may also be some of the early warning signs of childhood cancer.

Legal trade in rhino horn far from reality>> Number of poached rhinos continues to rise>> Inter-ministerial committee established by CabinetWarren BLunt>>[email protected]

The Department of Environmental Affairs has denounced recent media reports on the possible legal trade in rhino horn that have evidently been creating confusion with regards to the government’s position on the proposed trade in rhino horns, in a media statement released last week.

The media release stated that the South African government is well aware of the contin-ued slaughter of the country’s wildlife, espe-cially as South Africa is home to more than 80% of the world’s rhino population that has been facing an onslaught from rhino poaching syndicates since 2008.

The statement continued: “Our initiatives to address rhino poaching have incorporated not only increasing the number of rangers protect-ing our wildlife, but also improving regional and international collaboration with rhino range and consumer states. The government has also included introducing legislation and policy measures to support the tasks of those working to ensure rhino and other wildlife threatened by poachers and crime syndicates are protected and will not become extinct.

“While the Department of Environmental Affairs was authorised by Cabinet last year to explore the possible legalisation of trade in rhino horn with the Convention on Interna-tional Trade in Endangered Species (CITES) at the 17th Conference of Parties in 2016, no final proposal has been compiled or decision made, regarding the future legal trade in rhino horn as an additional intervention to reduce the levels of poaching.”

The Department of Environmental Affairs would like to place on record that no final proposal has been compiled regarding the future legal trade in rhino horn as an additional measure to reduce the high levels of poaching in South Africa.

Meanwhile the number of rhinos poached in the country has risen to 442 since the start of 2014 and 123 suspected poachers have been arrested. The Kruger National Park (KNP) has lost 293 rhino to poachers, with 56 people, including a former ranger and two policemen, being arrested for poaching in the KNP. Out of the total number of rhino poached so far this year, 48 have been killed in Limpopo, 41 in KwaZulu-Natal and 28 in North West.

According to the media statement, a panel of experts, under the chairmanship of the Deputy Director General: Biodiversity and Con-servation in the Department of Environmental Affairs, Fundisile Mketeni, has been appointed to assist the Inter-Ministerial Committee appointed by Cabinet to deliberate on the mat-ters relating to the possible trade in rhino horn.

The panels of experts have already started its work and will, in the coming months, listen to all sides of the trade debate before submit-ting recommendations to the Inter-Ministerial Committee.

No proposal to CITES will be finalised until all the questions related to the trade in rhino horn have been comprehensively debated and investigated.

Eight soccer players from Stanford Lake Col-lege (SLC) were selected to participate in a 6-a-side soccer tournament held at Merensky High School recently.

SLC coach Jack Moshia and his team of Aidan Du Preez, Phele Moabelo, Karabo Mollo, Rameez Tayob, Mfumo Mongwe, Edgar Silimela, Hlanhla Mohlaba and Junior Mashele were among 14 teams that took part in the tournament. The SLC finished second after suf-

fering defeat against Blue Mountain Academy in the last round. The

SLC overcame Southern Cross 5-0, Helmeg Academy 1-0, and King’s Court 2-0 on their way to the final match. They also drew 1-1 against Rainbow Combined School. Aidan scored a fantastic winning goal against King’s Court while Phele, a penalty specialist, struck the ball low and in so doing secured the draw against Rainbow Combined. This goal came shortly after a dramatic fall in the last minute of the game from Mfumo, who unfortunately dislocated his wrist in the process.

Stanford Lake College reach semis

>> Drie toetse teen Skotland>> Ook Proteakleure vir ringtennisWARREN BLUNT>>[email protected]

Na haar puik vertoning tydens die Brutal Fruit Netball Cup-reeks, die eerste semi- professionele netbaltoernooi in Suid-Afri-

ka, is die 20-jarige oudleerder van Hoërskool Pietersburg, Lenize Potgieter as een van drie nuwelinge tot die Protea netbalspan gekies.

Sy het vir Gauteng-Noord se Jaguarspan as doelskieter diens gedoen en is by twee geleenthede as die Powa Player of the Match aangewys. Daarbenewens het sy dwarsdeur die kompetisie ‘n doelgemiddeld van 90% en meer gehandhaaf. Volgens Protea-afrigter, Elize Kotze beïndruk sy veral met haar beweeglik-heid en akkuraatheid, en die manier waarop sy teen gesoute Protea-verdedigers vertoon.

Lenize sal haar debuut vir die Proteas in ‘n toetsreeks teen Skotland saam met Kefiloe Tsotetsi en Phumza Maweni maak. Kotze is opgewonde om te sien hoe die drie nuwelinge sal vertoon. “Skotland sal ‘n goeie uitdaging en begin vir die nuwe spelers in die span wees aangesien hulle nie een van die groot spanne is nie,” sê Kotze.

Die Protea netbalspan vir die State-bondspele later vanjaar sal eers na die drie toetse teen Skotland aangekondig word. Lenize het vroeër in die week saam met die Proteaspan na Kaapstad vertrek vir die drie toetse in die Bellville Velodrome wat vir drie agtereenvolgende dae van vandag (Donder-dag) tot Saterdag plaasvind.

Dit is die tweede sportsoort waarvoor Lenize Proteakleure verwerf. Sy is reeds op 16-jarige ouderdom vir die Protea ringten-

nisspan gekies en is sedertdien steeds die nommer een damespeler in die span. Sy het ook gedurende die Aprilvakansie twee goue medaljes verower tydens die Wêreldringtennis Kampioenskappe.

Lenize was ‘n leerder van Hoërskool Pieters-burg van graad 8- tot graad 11 voordat sy haar laaste skooljaar by Hoërskool Menlopark in Pretoria voltooi het. Sy studeer tans vir haar graad in Sportwetenskap aan die Universiteit van Pretoria en beplan ‘n honneursgraad in biokinetika of sportwetenskap.

Premier Soccer League outfit, Polokwane City

Football Club is giving hopeful soccer players a chance to showcase their soccer talent at their trials set to take place today (Thursday) at Polokwane Cricket Grounds.

Polokwane City holds trials for aspirant footballers

Club Spokesper-son, Patrick Baloyi said the trials will start at 10:00 and aspirant footballers younger than 23 and based in South Af-rica may participate. “Head Coach Boebie Solomons together with his technical team will be the main scouts during the day.

We decided that we should only give South African based players a chance to showcase their tal-ent and by so doing we will be contrib-uting to the devel-opment of South African soccer.

Hopefuls are re-quested to produce their South African identity document or birth certificate on the day,” Baloyi said.

Baloyi also said that all players will report to duty on Monday following a three week break to prepare for the 2014/2015 Premier Soccer League sea-son which commenc-es in the first week of August.

Gholfspelers het Vrydag ontspan en terselfdertyd die geleentheid gebruik om geld vir liefdadigheid en gemeenskapsprojekte in te samel tydens Rotary 100 se gholfdag. Bruno Tschudin, voorsit-ter van Rotary 100 het by die prysuitdeling gesê dat die gholfdag ‘n groot sukses was en dat dit

‘n voorreg is om ‘n bydrae tot die bedryf van Ons Tuiste Ouetehuis en die boorgatprojek in die Waterbergdistrik, waar Rotary 100 geld beskik-baarstel om water aan landelike gemeenskappe te voorsien, te maak.

Nóg geld is ingesamel toe Papa G Moseki, kaptein van die Pietersburg Gholfklub, ‘n paar van die spelers in ligte luim beboet het wat hulle sakke moes skud.

Die spanning tydens die Limpopo semi- en finale hokkiewedstryde wat Saterdag by Hoërskool Pietersburg (PHS) gespeel is, was onder spelers, ouers en belangstellendes op die paviljoen sigbaar.

In die semifinaal tussen PHS en Hoërskool Ben Viljoen se o.16-spanne moes PHS die knie buig nadat hulle gelykop gespeel het, maar tydens die strafdoelsessie 2-3 verloor het. Curro Heuwelkruin se o.15-span het ook die semifinaal teen Ben Viljoen verloor.

PHS se eerste span het hul staal gewys en klop Ben Viljoen 2-0 in die semifinaal, maar tree as naaswenners uit die stryd toe hulle 1-2 in die finaal teen Hoërskool Merensky verloor het. PHS se tweede span is ook naaswen-ners nadat hulle 0-3 teen Merensky verloor het.

Die laaste rondte van die Boet Fick Senior-liga-wedstryde vind Saterdag plaas met BB Truck & Tractor Noordelike Rugbyklub

(Noordelikes) en Kargo Pietersburg Rugbyklub (Dorp) wat in Ladanna kragte meet.

Dit is belangrik vir Noordelikes om ‘n groot telling teen Dorp te behaal omdat die span wat bo-aan die liga eindig, tuisvoordeel in die half-eind- en eindstryd na Saterdag se ligawedstryde sal hê. Die manne van Ladanna het ‘n weg-holsege van 73-12 teen Dorp aangeteken in hul

eerste kragmeting vroeër die seisoen.Noordelikes beklee tans die boonste posisie

in die liga met Letaba Rugbyklub in die tweede plek met dieselfde punte, maar die span van Tzaneen het ‘n kleiner punteverskil.

Letaba speel Saterdag ‘n moeilike weg-wedstryd teen Messina Rugbyklub en sal ‘n groot sege moet aanteken om Noordelikes bo-aan die liga te verskuif. Dorp se rugby het in die 2014-seisoen agteruit gegaan en Noordelikes behoort al drie wedstryde teen hul aartsvyande gemaklik te wen. Saterdag se eerste wedstryd tussen die derde spanne sal om 14:00 begin. Toegang is R10 per voertuig.

Precious Phasha: “I think Brazil will win this one. I mean they are the host nation and they won the Confedera-tions Cup.”

Sandra van der Merwe: “Brasilië behoort te wen weens die groot ondersteu-ning van die tuisskare wat bankvas agter hulle staan.”

Agnes Phooko: “Spain is my team. As the defending champions, I think they will go all the way. They have so much flair and they play an attractive football.”

Maria Afonso: “Portugal will win the World Cup be-cause they have good players.”

With contestants in the 2014 Fifa World Cup tournament in Brazil still fiercely engaged in the group stag-es of the tournament, Polokwane Observer asked residents which country they favoured to emerge as the winner. Met die spanne in die 2014 Fifa Wêreldbekertoernooi wat kragte meet in die groepwedstryde van die toernooi, het Polokwane Observer inwoners gevra wie hulle dink die wenners gaan wees.

>> Wen goue medalje by Afrika kampioenskappe>> Stoei al ‘n dekadeWARREn Blunt>>[email protected]

Na tien jaar se harde werk en sweet is Elbert Steyn van die plaaslike Ion Baciu Stoei Akademie se droom

verwesenlik om in Augustus vanjaar aan die Jeug Olimpiese Spele in China deel te neem.

Die 17-jarige leerder van Hoër Tegniese Skool Tom Naudé het vir die prestige-byeen-koms gekwalifiseer toe hy ‘n goue medalje by die Afrika Kadet Kampioenskappe (o.17) in Egipte in die 63 kg vrye styl-afdeling verower het.

Elbert sê hy reis China toe om te wen en sien met groot verwagting daarna uit om sy vaardighede teen die beste stoeiers in die wêreld in Augustus te meet. Hy sê die lesse wat hy in Egipte geleer het teen die beste stoeiers in Afrika sal hom goed te pas kom en hy beplan om tydens die winter skoolva-kansie minstens ses uur daagliks te oefen om ten volle voor te berei vir die grootste stoeikampioenskap van sy lewe tot dusver.

Stoei speel sedert 2004 ‘n groot rol in Elbert se lewe toe hy nog in Boksburg woon-agtig was en sy pa verby ‘n bekende stoei-klub gery het en vir sy sewejarige seuntjie gevra het of hy homself op die stoeimat wil toets. “Dit het lekker en interessant gelyk. Van die eerste sekonde toe ek op die mat gestap het, het ek geweet dit is die sport-soort wat ek wil doen,” sê Elbert.

Hy het nog dieselfde jaar vir die Suid-Afri-ka Kampioenskappe gekwalifiseer, maar het volgens hom nie deelgeneem nie oor ‘n teg-niese rede. Daarna het hy het by die Evander Stoeiklub aangesluit en vier keer elke week van Pretoria na die klub gereis om te oefen. Later het hy saam met sy afrigter, Hansie Kruger by die Brakpan Stoeiklub aangesluit waar hy sy basiese stoeivaardighede geslyp het.

Toe die Kruger-gesin na Nelspruit verhuis het, het Elbert lid van die Tuks Stoeiklub in Pretoria geword en baie teen Roedie Roets van Ion Baciu Stoei Akademie in dieselfde gewigkategorie gestoei. Sy pa het aanbeveel dat hy by die stoeiklub in Polokwane moet aansluit om sy stoei te verbeter onder leiding van Roedie se pa, Jan Roets.

Roets is die afrigter van die Suid-Afrika Kadet- en Juniorspan wat onlangs in Egipte deelgeneem het en word beskou as een van die beste afrigters in die land. “Oom Jan het al my foute reggemaak en my weer skerp gemaak. Vanjaar het ek die beste in my hele lewe gestoei. Voor my goue medalje in Egipte het ek ook in die Suid-Afrika Presi-dente Kampioenskappe deelgeneem waar ek groot name geklop het teen wie ek nooit tevore kon wen nie,” het die opgewonde jong man gesê.

Elbert het sy nasionale kleure vir die eerste keer verlede jaar ontvang en sien nou uit om Suid-Afrika in die grootste toernooi vir jong stoeiers in die wêreld te verteenwoor-dig.

Tussen sy oefenprogram vir die Jeug Olimpiese Spele moet Elbert ook tyd maak vir eksamenskryf. Hy erken dat hy ‘n bietjie harder op akademiese vlak moet werk, maar

is tevrede met sy punte. Elbert is baie dankbaar vir HTS Tom Naudé se ondersteuning en Jan Roets en die stoeiers van Ion Baciu Stoei Akademie se on-gelooflike bystand en hulp om sy stoeiloopbaan te bevorder.
