ANDRIES SITHOLE, husband of the lateGoodness Sithole who was killed in ahit-and-run car accident on the N5 road afortnight ago, wants the driver who killedhis wife behind bars.

A fuming Redge Rudman, manager atTelkom in Bethlehem, where Goodnessworked, also wants justice to take itscourse.

A heartbroken Sithole says a case wasregistered at the Bethlehem Police Station,but thus far they have heard nothing fromthe police.

He says he went to the station lastWednesday to find out about the latestdevelopments in the case, but he was toldthat the investigating officer was on leavefor two weeks.

According to Sithole, his wife was killedat night by a speeding car which hit heron the shoulder of the road.

“We were driving together and we got apuncture. I tried to change the tyre, butthe jack I used was weak. I called mywife’s brother, who was in Qwaqwa. Hearrived on the scene and while we werebusy, my wife insisted that she would gohome to prepare food for us. After she hadcrossed the road, a car came past and shestood against her brother’s car to avoid it,but the car went straight to her and shedied on the spot,” he says.

Sithole says the driver of the car neverstopped to check what had happened.

Rudman said Goodness was a veryhelpful and hardworking employee. Hesaid he was worried about not havingheard anything from the police yet.

Sgt. Mmako Mophiring, police spokes-person, confirmed the accident. He saidthe police were busy with the investiga-tion.

“We cannot let it go just like that,” hesaid. Mophiring said the police call on thedriver who knows that he hit someone onthe N5 to report to the Bethlehem PoliceStation.

THE National Debt Mediation Association(NDMA) has in the past two months, Januaryand February, successfully mediated the stop-ping of 18 sales in execution out of 26 requestsreceived. In most cases consumers ap-proached the NDMAwhen the credit providerhad a valid court order, but even under thesecircumstances credit providers were willingto offer concessions or rectify omissions afterthe consumer’s financial circumstances hadproperly been presented or gaps had beenidentified in the process followed by the creditprovider to acquire the court order.

When the bank sells your property to recov-er the money it lent you, it’s known as a salein execution and the property is sold in a pub-lic auction held by a Sheriff of the Court. Inmany cases, this is the banks’s last resort afterfollowing steps outlined in theNational CreditAct, which includes an opportunity providedin section 129 of the act to work on a plan tobring payments up to date. Many consumersdo not respond to section 129 notices or do notspeak to their banks immediately when theyexperience financial difficulties.

Asale inexecutionusuallyresults inproper-ties being sold for less than the outstandingbalance, which is the amount that you owe onthe bond.

“The consumer is liable for the payment ofany shortfall and legal costs, including thecosts to sell the repossessed property – thisshortfall is the difference between what theproperty is sold for and what you owe on thebondpluscosts incurred,” said thechief execu-tive officer (CEO) of the National Debt Media-tion Association, Magauta Mphahlele.

“This situation normally arises where thebalance owed by the consumer is extremelyhigh, because they are so far in arrears, addi-tional legal costs are involved, the value of thehouse is less than the bond outstanding, or asecond or third bond was registered againstthe property.”

Consumers who take proactive action oncein trouble are better off at the end. Unfortu-nately many consumers leave matters until itis too late or do not honour arrangementsmade with the credit provider.

Acase inpoint is a consumerwhohadmulti-ple properties and due to him losing his jobwas unable to service his agreements. It tookthreeyearsof variousarrangementsandcourtchallenges between the parties and when thematter reached the NDMA, it was difficult tomediate a solution as it was clear from the his-tory of the case that the consumer had failedto honour various arrangements made withthe bank.

Mphahlele advised that consumers whofound themselves in a similar situation en-sured that they understood their rights andthe options available to them. When makingan offer, consumers must not act under pres-sure andmake commitments they cannot real-istically meet. They should consult an expertto help them draw up an income and expendi-ture statement with the aim of developing areasonable and sustainable offer to catch upwith arrears.

“If you receive a S.129 letter (a letter statingthat a consumer is in arrears and informingthe consumer of certain rights), you should re-spond immediately as delaying action willlead to further legal action and unnecessaryadditional costs,” said Mphahlele.

“Negotiate with your credit provider or asktheNDMA to advise you onwhat the best solu-tion for youmight be or tomediate on your be-half for other (alternative) arrangements tobring repaymentsup todate.Youalsohave theright to approach a debt counsellor or an alter-native dispute resolution agent.”

Mphahlele added that if you are strugglingwith paying off your mortgage do not wait forthe bank to commencewith legal action.Manybanks have distressed mortgage assistanceprogrammes and are able to advise on how toavoid a sale in execution. You can also look fora buyer whowill approach the credit providerwith an acceptable offer, on condition that thebuyer is approved and the offer ismaintained.In some cases this may be a higher offer thanthe bank will get through a sale in execution,avoiding or reducing a possible shortfall.

In caseswhere the shortfall is not explained,consumers have the right to have all chargesand fees explained and to be provided with astatement in that regard.

For further assistance please call theNDMAHelpline on 086-111-6362 or SMS the word“Sale” to 44238 (R1,50/SMS) and a service ini-tiation officer will call you back.

THE University of the Free State QwaqwaGospel Choir recently hosted and shared thestage with the Stanford Talisman, a uniquegroup of students of the Stanford Universityin America (USA) who sing a wide repertoirewhich includes indigenous South Africansongs among other genres.

According to their website, “Talisman wascreated to explore and perform substantive,culturalmusic”, and this is someofwhat they

brought to the Qwaqwa Campus.The website further reported that a unique

pre-Easter concert brought all of them togeth-er through music that knew no boundaries,SiphoMnyakeni, who heads residence life onthe Qwaqwa Campus, was quoted.

The Stanford Talisman Choir left crowdsin awe and disbelief with their rendition ofindigenous Sesotho, IsiZulu and IsiXhosahymns. Some of the songs were well-known

classics composed and previously performedby the likes of Hugh Masekela and the lateMirriamMakeba. One song that blew the au-dience away was the well-known South Afri-can struggle song Asimbonanga by JohnnyClegg, which was a tribute to the then incar-cerated Nelson Mandela.

The groupswere supported byHlanganani,an IsiZulu traditional music student ensem-ble, and the poet Black Butterfly.

A RECENT research article headed by DrAliza le Roux of the University of the FreeState Qwaqwa Campus’ Department of Zool-ogy and Entomology, asserts that cheatingand deception are not only human phenome-nons – it is also found in animals.

“Our specific study investigated cheatingand punishment in geladas.

“While human beings are known to de-ceive one another, and punish cheaters thatget caught, it is actually very rare to findproof of this kind of behaviour in animals,”said Le Roux.

“We don’t know if this is because humansare uniquely deceitful, or if it is just that ani-mals deal with cheating differently.

“Our study was therefore the first to dem-onstrate that gelada males and females tryto deceive their partners when they arecheating on them.

“Thismeans they try to hide their unfaith-ful behaviour.

“This is therefore the first investigationto document tactical deception in primatesliving in a natural environment.

“We also showed that the cuckoldedmalesthen punish the cheaters, but could not de-termine if the punishment actually causedcheaters to stop cheating,” concluded LeRoux.

This on-going and long-term study contin-ues to observe the population of wild geladasin the Simien Mountains National Park inEthiopia.

The study investigates primate hormones,cognition, genetics, social behaviour andconservation, and is done in collaborationwith the Universities of Michigan and Penn-sylvania.

ALTHOUGH we may not be quiteas extreme about chocolate as theBrits, who consume a massive 80million chocolate eggs a year,South Africans love chocolatewith a passion, as well as withtheir pockets – the chocolate mar-ket is valued at over R5 billion ayear with sales booming at peakholidays like Easter.But poor oral health may be the

price we pay for our sweet tooth –by the age of six years over 60% ofSouth African children werefound to have cavities and world-wide, gum disease is one of themost common health conditions.However, a taste for the sweet

things in life doesn’t have to equala dental disaster. Gumdisease andcavities can be prevented if youpay proper attention to your oralcare routine.Dirna Grobbelaar, IVOhealth’s

oral hygiene advisor, explains:“Cavities are caused by bacteria inplaque that thrive in an acidic en-vironment.“Eating chocolate and sugary

foods and drinksmakes themouthmore acidic, feeding this bacteria,which then eats away at yourtooth’s enamel.”In the interest of better oral

health, here is the chocoholic’sguide to healthy teeth:

RinseAfter consuming sugary foods or

drinks, rinse the mouth with amouthwash that is the same pH assaliva and contains fluoride.“Rinsing with water is an op-

tion, not quite as effective, but bet-ter than leaving the sugar residuein the mouth,” said Grobbelaar.

Brush“Brushing teeth twice a day for

twominutes each time is essential,but it is not a good idea to brushimmediately after a choc feast,even after eating fruit, as the sug-ars contained raise acid levels andthis temporarily ‘softens’ theenamel that protects the teeth.“It is best towait at least an hour

before brushing.”

FlossAs two-thirds of South Africans

don’t floss regularly, it is not sur-prising that 90% of dental prob-lems start between the teeth.Many people say they find floss-

ing awkward, but these days, witha vast array of interdental clean-ers on the market, that is no ex-cuse.“How you clean between the

teeth is less important than howoften you do it,” said Grobbelaar.“Make it a daily habit.”Grobbelaar says that timing also

has an impact.“Eat your treats all at once or

straight after meals, rather thansmall snacks throughout the day.It’s better to have a temporarysurge in acid balance than a con-tinual onslaught.”Prevention is not only better

than cure from a health per-spective – it is often more cost ef-fective.Grobbelaar recommends having

a dental check-up annually andseeing the oral hygienist twice ayear for a professional cleaning.For more advice on how to keep

even the sweetest tooth strong andhealthy, speak to your dentist ororal hygienist.For tips, news and competitions

WHEN Dr Mamphela Ramph-ele announced that she wasstarting a new political party,I was left confused and won-dered whether it was going tobe a good move or not.I asked myself if that was a

solution to the current politi-cal chaos that our country is facing. A unitedfront is needed so that all thewastedvotes canat least make a difference, but if a new partyis formed, how is it going to be different tothose that have been formed?I still do not understand how, as a nation

so evolved, we still go to polls withmore thanten parties nationally.Why can’t we be a two-party country like America? If you check allthe policies of these parties, they are similar,if not copies of each other.I believe people get into politics for person-

al gain and not for the emancipation of allSouth Africans. What motivates people tostart political parties and then later on lie,mislead and gain riches through corruptionand nepotism?The biggest question is, who are you going

to vote for and why?Are you going to be a free- T-shirt voter or

a free-spirited thinkerwhovotesbasedonpol-

icies and trackrecords? Are you go-ing to be manipulat-ed and used as asheep?The biggest mis-

take you couldmake,is to not vote at all

and stay away. Peoplewillmake decisions foryou that will help govern you, rule and over-rule you.The funny thing is that the people have so

much power, yet they do not know it. Whyelse then would the president leave his officeand go to the slums to ask for votes and evenspend millions buying T-shirts just to bribepeople for their votes?We have the power. Let us rather use our

votes wisely and benefit from these votes.A country that uses emotions when voting

is doomed and the issue of colour is not anissue anymore.Wewon’t go back to apartheidand don’t be fooled by these parties. We havea world-class constitution which won’tchange.So when you do go and vote, do it for your

kid’s future because I am sure as hell goingto vote formy daughter’s future, and trustmewhen I say my vote won’t be bought.

Votesmust be used wisely

A MAN was going on a trip and hiswife packed his clothes for him.When he was about to leave, his

came running.“Honey, please give me some as I
