Phemelo Sehunelo } Boipelo Mere ALL youths have talent. All that needs to be done, is for that talent to be harvested and brought to the open.” This was the message of the former owner of youth soccer club Basotho Tigers, Adv. Phemelo Sehunelo, now a mining magnate, at the funeral of the late soccer star Richard Henye- kane. Henyekane began the road to professional football by joining Basotho Tigers in 1999 before he proceeded to Hellenic. Sehunelo highlighted the challenges in soccer during the funeral service at the ABC Cemetery in Galeshewe on Saturday (11/04). Henyekane was killed in a car crash, along with four other passengers, during the early hours of Tuesday (07/04) on their way from Qwaqwa to Bethlehem. The other occupants of the car were identified as Paul Mofokeng (26), Nthabiseng Motsoetsoe (20), Ayanda Matete (20) and Mpho Moloi (18). The funeral service was attended by hundreds of mour- ners, including friends and supporters from the Northern Cape, Gauteng and the Free State. Representatives from other PSL clubs, Safa and government departments also paid their respects, including PSL chairper- son Dr Irvin Khoza. Expressing the great loss that the soccer fraternity and the province had suffered, Sehunelo said that the tragedy should be a wake-up call to the province. He proposed that the Northern Cape government play a more active role in nurturing young players at an early age. “Yes, it is a loss to everyone, but we must appreciate what we had and move forward in the soccer world. “In him, I have lost a talented brother.” Basotho Tigers have since been sold to the North West, where its name was later changed to North West Tigers in 2004. Sehunelo added that the youth should learn more from the life of Henyekane, who was lucky to have been spotted at the right time. Sehunelo prides himself in the knowledge that he played a big role in ensuring that Henyekane carved out a successful soccer career. He was also involved in Henyekane’s life as a legal advisor for contractual purposes when he moved from Basotho Tigers, to Hellenic, to Golden Arrows and to Sundowns. “The question is, are we still going to say there was a team called Basotho Tigers? “I have done my part in producing such talent. Somebody else must take over now.” He said the provincial govern- ment was not doing enough to promote soccer in the province, and emphasised that local clubs had to be subsidised in order for them to produce quality players. Trott Moloto, the general manager of Mamelodi Sundowns, and former coach of Golden Arrows, said it was sad indeed for a talented person to lose his life at such a young age. Moloto coached Henyekane at Arrows before moving to Sundowns. Henyekane reportedly followed him to Mamelodi Sundowns. Moloto noted with approval the support shown to the family during their time of sorrow by fellow soccer clubs. ) Go to www.express-news for more pictures.

IT was a dream come true for AzettaTownson (31), an employee at the KolomelaMine, to be given an opportunity to buy herfirst house X a double-storey house X throughthe mine’s Social Labour Plan Project twoyears ago.

As an administration assistant at the mine,she was one of the 718 local communityemployees who got the opportunity to buystandard houses in which Anglo Americanwas reported to have invested an amount ofone million rand. The mining companypartnered with the Tsantsabane LocalMunicipality, which allocated land inPostmasburg for the construction of thehouses, making Townson’s dream of becom-ing a homeowner come true. As part of anintegrated approach that allowed the housesto form part of the current communitywithout creating a separate mining town, theproject was further reported to have ad-dressed housing challenges within the localmunicipality. Townson moved from hersingle-storey home in Postdene, where shegrew up, into her own 120 m² house consist-ing of three bedrooms, two bathrooms, withother comforts like ceilings, air conditioningand solar heating.

“Now I have my own big house. It is ablessing for me to be able to support myselfand raise my first child in a very differentand better environment compared to minewhen I was her age,” she said proudly.

The young mother also got the opportunityof being visited by the minister of MineralResources, Ngoako Ramahlodi, on Thursday(09/04) during the launch of the housingproject.

According to the CEO of the KolomelaMine, Norman Mbazima, the housing projectnot only created employment for approxi-mately 3 000 semi-skilled and skilled workers,but had been so successful that it wasawarded the provincial and national GovanMbeki Award from the Department ofHuman Settlements in 2013 as the bestsubsidised housing model.

He added that the project was an effort toeliminate hostels and create access tohousing for all mine workers.

“This is an achievement for all of us. Thisis an indication that the province and thecountry can achieve more through thesekinds of partnerships,” he added.

Kumba’s Social and Community Strategy isaimed at supporting government in address-ing the gaps in the following key focus areas:education and skills, health and socialwelfare, youth, enterprise development andinfrastructure development.

Highlighting the important role thatKumba had played in developing Postmas-burg, the premier of the Northern Cape,Sylvia Lucas, said that the town needed thiskind of infrastructure.

“We sincerely believe that they deserve tobe appreciated for their stability in thispreviously turbulent town,” she said.

THE pantsula dance group Black Conversewill soon be making another appearance onnational television.Hailing from Galeshewe, the group of four

pantsula dancers’ spirit were not dampenedby their elimination from the dancecompetition Step up or Step out in 2014.The team members, Joey Steenkamp,

Emannuel Molatlhwe, Steven Mpadi andLucas Koper, who claim to have returnedhome better equipped after their eliminationfrom the top-seven stage of the competition,will be competing in the upcoming StumboStomp Amapantsula dance competition thatwill be broadcast live on SABC1.They plan to use their experience gained

from the previous competitions in theupcoming event taking place from 13 May toAugust.According to the excited members, they

were over the moon when they received thecall that theirs was chosen as the bestdance video that qualified for the 13-episodedance show.Being reportedly the only group chosen

from the Northern Cape, they will becompeting with 52 other pantsula dancegroups from around the country.“We are excited and nervous at the same

time to have been given another opportuni-ty to shine.“We will strive to scoop this one. I mean,

if we made it to the top seven in the Stepup and Step out dance competition, wherewe were competing against many otherdance categories, we can just dance our wayto the top,” said Steenkamp.The team revealed how they would use

the experience and feedback from previousworkshops to improve upon and play withtheir original dance moves.“We are eliminating and improving on

some of our dance moves.“We also learned the importance of

expressions, including how to manage theuse of our energy effectively.”The group is well known for their

trademark of expressing joy as they dance,which they were highly admired for duringthe Step up or Step out competition. Themembers said that was a way of alsomotivating each other and displaying thepassion that they had for what they did.“This win is for us because it will be a

straight pantsula dance competition. Weknow almost all the challenges of dancecompetitions and have an understanding ofwhat we are doing and where we are goingwith this.“We have a more positive attitude to push

forward through our passion for dancing.We do have a future in dancing and we aregoing nowhere near jail,” added Steenkamp.The group uses the backyard of one of

their members’ homes to practice. Alsoacknowledging their fear that pantsuladance is fading away, they highlighted theirstruggle to make ends meet.They also said it was a challenge to host

concerts to raise funds, due to the violencethat seemed to break out during localconcerts.“The thing is we cannot afford to hire

security during our events, which leaves theaudience and supporters at risk.”Leonie Koper, mother of group member

Lucas, allows the group to use her backyardfor practice. She expressed her pride in thegroup and promised to continue meetingthem halfway.“Us parents must continue to show

support for our children, because they havekept their heads up for ten years throughthick and thin. We are aware that only oneof the members is employed, thus they needour support during fund-raising,” she said.“It is better for them to use their talent to

survive instead of robbing people atknife-point like their peers do.”The group highlighted how they had to

give up their dream of sharing their skillswith the younger generation due to a lackof resources and space.“But we are not prevented in any way to

do outreach programmes, like at orphanagesand on Mandela Day.”

EARTH DAY will be celebrated on 22April and many countries, including SouthAfrica, are gearing up to honour the earth.

As a theoretical concept, this shouldmake a significant difference in theenvironment as well as people’s mindsetabout how we affect the planet we live on.

Unfortunately, one day a year does noteven begin to rectify the damage that weinflict daily.

The recent uproar caused by the city ofJohannesburg’s Sisonke Project is a primeexample of municipalities’ disregard forthe impact inner-city waste managementhas on the inner-city environment. TheSisonke Project was launched on 12October 2007.

With fanfare the municipality and thethen executive mayor of Johannesburg,Amos Masondo, announced that the systemwould guarantee a cleaner and moresanitary environment. Skip to the present.

The stench that emanates from theunderground concrete sleeves is nowunbearable.

The theory behind the project is thatusers throw their refuse in strategically-placed rubbish bins connected to under-ground concrete containers. When thecontainers are full, specially adaptedtrucks will lift them out of the ground,empty and replace them. This takes aboutten minutes.

The concept sounds idyllic and it hascost the city R5,5 million to implement.

Yet, the system only works when thetrucks actually pick up the rubbish. Andthe trucks can only pick up the rubbishwhen they are serviced and perform theirduties. According to E-News, there iscurrently only one truck in operation.

Now look at the rubbish situation inKathu. It seems as if a similar attitude torefuse removal is taken by the currentmunicipality.

Rubbish removal does happen promptlyon occasion, but proper disposal takes aback seat.

Dump trucks take rubbish to an over-flowing rubbish dump and the situationdeteriorates from there. The refuse at thedump is disposed of in a heap behind thedesignated dumping zone.

The final outrage is that this heap isthen set alight, and the air is filled withnoxious fumes.

The local municipality should take ahard look at their policies regardinggarbage removal and the reality of howtheir methods are affecting the environ-ment.

One learns from your leaders, andcurrently the example is not up to EarthDay standards.

IN commemoration of its tenthyear, SuperSport is launch-ing the Let’s Play PhysicalEducation Challenge.

According to LynneLandman of ZPR forSuperSport, the Chal-lenge is a nationwideevent targeted at 10- and11-year-olds from amongSouth Africa’s 18 000primary schools.

She explained in a pressstatement that the primary objec-tive of the Challenge was to reinforcethe instruction of curriculum-orientedphysical education and to promotephysical activity in all schools.

According to her, the nine provincialwinners will each receive R10 000 worthof sports equipment and a physicaleducation package worth R40 000.

“The fittest primary school perprovince will compete for the title withthe grand prize a R1,1 million all-pur-pose, all-weather multi-use sports courtto be built at the winning school,” saidLandman.

Let’s Play coaching teams will repor-tedly target various schools per day torun the Physical Education Challenge.

The fittest learners per school willcompete, after which the top-10 schoolsper province will qualify for the provin-cial semi-final, leading to an overallprovincial winner. The national finalwill take place on Let’s Play’s 10thbirthday on 5 November.

Landman said the obstacle coursechallenge was designed to accommodateboth boys and girls and would bestandar-dised at every competing school.

“It includes football slalom dribble,catch and throw, mini hurdles, rope pulland an agility drill; all of which are

completed in a matter of min-utes.

“While activity is thecentral focus of the chal-lenge, it will also drawattention to two majorsocial issues amongyoungsters: doping andbullying. A parallel cam-paign to end violence against

children will be supported byUnicef, the children’s rights

and emergency relief organisa-tion,” added Landman.

According to the statement, the formerMiss South Africa, Jo-Anne Strauss, isthe Goodwill Ambassador and will makeappearances at schools to address theissue.

“We believe that this is a meaningfulway to get schools involved in physicalactivity, particularly as government hashighlighted the need for children tobecome more active,” said VaughnBishop, head of Let’s Play.

“Kids needn’t be superstars; thechallenge is designed to accommodateeveryone at primary school level.”

The Let’s Play Physical EducationChallenge is endorsed by the Depart-ment of Basic Education, the Depart-ment of Sport and Recreation, theNedbank Sports Trust, Active Educa-tion, the South African Institute forDrug-Free Sport, the Physical EducationInstitute of South Africa and Multi-Choice.

ANDREW LOUW, DA provincial leader:

THE debate on the city’s statues must besettled in the spirit of reconciliation.Statues, names and symbols do matter.

Creating inclusive public spaces, withstatues that reflect the shared values of ademocratic South Africa, should be part ofmunicipal spatial planning. And we shouldfollow in Madiba’s footsteps by incorpora-ting the past into an inclusive vision forthe future.The apartheid government and the

colonial government which preceded it,created a lot of evil in South Africa.Overcoming the legacy of apartheid shouldnot be reduced to a contest to see who canvandalise the most statues.Look at the Honoured Dead Memorial,

which was commissioned by Cecil JohnRhodes and commemorates soldiers whodied defending Kimberley in the Anglo-Boer War.Rudyard Kipling’s inscription refers to

the victors being those who died for thecity. Perhaps we can rededicate thismemorial to commemorate all those whohad died in the struggle for freedom.It is time for the city of Kimberley to

convene an open consultation session withall residents.Use the model of the Inclusive City

Campaign that the DA launched in CapeTown.Let us gather together and discuss what

we, as residents, want to see happen withour public spaces.

Incorporatepast into future

FOUR traffic officials and three civilianswere arrested by the Hawks in the Nor-thern Cape on charges of fraud, racketee-ring, corruption, contravention of the RoadTraffic Act and issuing false driver’slicences.According to Col. Priscilla Naidu, the

suspects, of which six are male and one isfemale, were arrested on Monday morning(13/04) during a takedown operation in DeAar.She revealed in a press statement that

the suspects were aged between 45 and 52years and would appear in the De AarMagistrate’s Court soon.The arrest reportedly followed a joint

operation between members of the Hawksand the Northern Cape Crime IntelligenceUnit.It is alleged that the syndicate has been

operating since 2012, which led to one ofthe suspects being charged in 2008 forsimilar offences.He was reportedly acquitted at the time.“Police have also confiscated the vehicles

belonging to the suspects,” revealed Naidu.The provincial head of the Hawks in the

Northern Cape, Maj. Gen. Liziwe Ntshinga,is reported to have welcomed the arrestsand warned that police would continue toclamp down on corrupt governmentofficials who through their actions jeopar-dised the lives of innocent road users.“Unlawful conduct will not be tolerated

and ignored and all law enforcementofficers are expected to execute theirduties in a professional and honestmanner and behaviour such as thiscertainly does not augur well for anydepartment.“Issuing false driver’s licences and

registering un-roadworthy vehicles placethe lives of innocent people at risk.The Hawks assure the communities that

they would continue doing everything toroot out criminality and we urge thecommunities to support the police in thefight against corruption.“Members of the Hawks work tirelessly

to root out disloyal, criminal elementsfrom society and will continue to tightenthe screws on criminals,” she said.
