AMAN from Beaufort West, who is resid-ing in Cape Town, is blaming MthathaCentral Police Station Officers for failingto givehim information about hismissingfirearm.

Simphiwe Ntlabathi claims that hisfirearm has been kept by this Police Sta-tion since 2005. He said that the firearmhad belonged to his uncle (Velile Ngxawe-ni)whopassedaway.Ntlabathi thenalleg-edly asked Ngxaweni’s wife to give himthe firearm, since she said she did notwant it.“My aunt refused to give it to me, be-

cause I did not have a firearm licence atthe time. She then took it to Mthatha Cen-tral Police Station,” said Ntlabathi.He said he got his licence in 2011 after

his aunt had also passed away. When hewent to the police station to collect thefirearm, he was asked for a SAP 13 NU,which he brought to the police station.That was when he was told that his fire-arm had been taken by the National TaskForce to Pretoria.“But the problemwas that there was no

name, persal number and rank of the po-liceman or woman who took the firearmwhich was registered in the occurrencebook. That iswhy I amsaying this firearmis missing.”Ntlabathi said he had tried several

times to findhelp.Hehad evenphoned theprovincial office to ask for help. They toldhim that according to their records thefirearm was registered in his name.He was advised to open a case, but he

said the case was not being investigated.He said hewasworried about his firearm,because if something happened, he couldbe in trouble because it is registered inhisname.“I can end up in jail because of it. I am

appealing to anyone who can advise meon which steps to take now to please as-

sist. I had tried all the offices which Ithought would have been able to help.”Police Spokesperson for the Mthatha

Cluster, Warrant Officer Denoe Koena,saidNtlabathimust goand report themat-ter to the branch commander if he feelsthat his case is not being investigatedproperly.“He followed the right path by getting

a licence and that the gunwas taken to thepolice for safety. But if it is now missing,he must report it to the police,” said Koe-na.She said they appeal to the community

to hand guns in to the police if the ownerhas passed away.

THE community of Ndayeni location in Tha-leni Administrative Area, Lusikisiki, are re-fusing that the corpse of ababywhowas foundwithout a head and an arm, be buried in theirarea without its missing limbs.

They demanded that the mother of the in-fant be released from prison so that she cango and fetch the missing limbs as they willnever allow the baby to be buried in their ar-

ea.The gruesome discovery of the corpse two

weeks ago, on October 7, caused angeramongst community members, particularlythe young people.They demanded that the family of the 18-

year-oldmother, accused of killing the infant,leave the area. The baby was believed to beone-day old when it was found in a secludedarea in the village.After the discovery, elderly women in the

locality commenced a massive hunt for the

mother of the baby. All the women in the lo-cality were called to ameeting and eachwom-an was milked and and their private parts in-spected.During that inspection an 18-year-old wom-

an was allegedly found to have recently givenbirth. When she was questioned about thewhereabouts of her child she was unable togive a proper explanation. Community mem-bershandedher over to the police and shewasarrested.Police spokesperson CaptainMduduzi God-

lwana confirmed that community membersrefused that the baby be buried in their area.He said the family was ordered to leave the

area but the chief of the area rescued themby keeping them at his place.He said the police tried several times to in-

tervene by holdingmeetingswith communitymembers from the area but their efforts werein vain. A meeting on Tuesday last week wasalso fruitless as members of the communitywere still saying they don’t want the baby toburied in their area.

A MAN who is herding Mandela’s cat-tle at Qunu farm near Mthatha deniedthat the cattle who died during recentmonths were neglected.

MgcineniWisemanQingana said thecattle were not neglected because heand fellow herdsmen were looking af-ter them and they also have a supervi-sor to oversee the whole process on thefarms in Qunu and Ncise. Both farmsbelong to the late statesman, NelsonMandela.The man, who has been working on

Mandela’s farmsince 2000, saidheusedto share jokes with Tata Mandela

whilst they were on the farm, inspect-ing his livestock with him.He described him as somebody who

loved livestockwholeheartedly.Qinga-na’s utterances follow reports that Nel-son Mandela’s cattle at Qunu farm aredying from neglect.He revealed that the only thing that

hampers them was the late delivery ofthe feed to the farm. Delivery some-times takesmonths. Due to grass beingdry in winter, they depended on lu-cerne for feed.He said the lucerne supply ran out

some months ago and was only deliv-ered on Tuesday, October 21. “About200 bales were delivered. If it was doneaccording tomywishes, lucernewould

always be available at the farm be-cause there is no grass and the size ofthe farm is not enough for somany cat-tle.”Qingana confirmed that 10 cattle

died this year and he believed that itwas because of hunger and draught. Hesaid he and the other herd boy reportedeverything to the supervisor who is al-ways at the farm.He said the supervisor reports to the

manager, namedMimi,who is based inGauteng and Mimi reports to Makazi-we the eldest daughter of Mandela.The Qunu farm now has 1 790 cattle

plus many calves. Attempts to get holdof the supervisor, called Siya, as wellas Makaziwe, were fruitless.

THREE men have been arrested in connec-tion with the damage to the OR Tambo Gar-den of Remembrance.

The men (20, 21 and 50) were arrested by aspecial task force which was established byLt-gen. Celiwe Binta, Police Commissioner inthe Eastern Cape.Last week Eastern Cape Premier, Phumulo

Masualle, condemned the burning ofORTam-bo’s statue at the village of Nkantolo in Biza-na. During the incident two huts were burntdown along with a statue of the late formerANC President, Oliver R Tambo.“We bemoan this insensitive act and find it

hard to believe that there are people whocould commit such a crime, with such impu-nity, lawlessness and contempt during the

month that we celebrate the untarnishedlegacy of President Oliver Reginald Tam-bo.”“There are processes to be followed when

communities have grievances andnomatterthe gravity of concerns, such lawless actsthat split and besmirch our history and ourleaders must be condemned with the con-tempt they deserve,” saidPremierMasualle.OR Tambo was born and brought up at

Nkantolo, in Bizana. He was among thefounding members of the African NationalCongress Youth League (ANCYL) in 1944and later became president of the ANC. Hedied of a stroke in April 1993.

As part of the campaign the municipalitieselected delegates to visit the areas wheretourists walk in order to experience first-hand what tourists experience as well as thetreatment they receive from locals.A group of thirty delegates, including Mb-

hashe Local Municipality Mayor NoncebaMfecane, recently spent three days visitingareas in the Mbhashe Local Municipality.According to Mayor Mfecane, the visit in-

cluded walking more than 8 km from HavenHotel in Elliotdale to Mbhanyana Falls.She said they wanted to taste and feel how

the people living along the coast treat them.She said there are many places that are at-

tractivebut they (themunicipalities) don’t al-ways know about them; and that is why theystarted this journey.Mfecane said they travelled with delegates

MAMAMIABROUGHTPEACE IN

MYBROKENUPFAMILYFor many years I suffered a lot in my marriage. I had daily fights with my husband and had no peace becauseof my jealous family, friends and my in-laws also hated me. I felt betrayed and heartbroken by my own people.

Sleepless nights and stress nearly killed me. I tried many healers, but they all failed to help me, until I heardabout Mama Mia on a spiritual on the radio. With the only R100 I had in life, Mama Mia took my fortunereadings and surprised me by telling me accurately about my husbands hidden family secrets. She then madespecial prayers and gave me powerful herbal Indian Holy Water for cleansing and a special oil. Within just afew days a miracle happened: all my enemies and family in-laws who hated me came back to make peacewith. After suffering 20 painful years, today we are the happiest couple and I am also grateful because ofMama Mia.

Her special prayers of blessings has made me became a successful business lady.

Mmm, what a pain

On thisExpress land sometimes things arenot fair, but what is needed is to endure nomatter how difficult the situation is.

We were listening to a chap who was sob-bing pointinghis finger to hiswife.What didthe wife do?

They had been married for ten years andblessedwith two children in theirmarriage.You know what, there are secretive peoplewhowill never reveal their disgrace butGodwho is above all will disclose it.

Because He hates to see his sheep suffer

on the ground.Go straight to the point majimbos najikeleza

ngathi yinkukhu izakubeka iqanda.This chap only find out ukuthi his first born

is not his last week when a boy got sick. Youknowmoss in the black culture, if a child needsa custom to be practised in his or her blood,no doctor can help.

Nomfethukehe spent thousandsof rands try-ing to heal ‘his’ first born son but in vain.

God whispered to the woman to tell the truthto his hubby rather than losing him.

But ke mfethu take it easy deal with the mat-ter. Don’t dismiss her because bonke banjenomnye oyakumfumana she may bring twowamaveza ndlebe or all of them.

Mind, ke the bond already established be-tween the father and son.

In a short space of time kuvela omnye u-Dad.Mara sisters niyazihlukumeza intliziyo za-

banye abantwana.“Yhoo, hayibo wathi siyahlukumeza bona?”

Nabo besitsho oosisters.Hayi sisters we are really apologising about

what we said masikhe siyibeke kanje, kuyahl-ukunyezwana kodwa kulo mhlaba.

WITH music as a tool Sbiza Lounge HouseKwaitomusic group is aiming at changingpeople’s lives and expressing theirthoughts through the very scarce musicgenre in Mbizana which is House Kwaito.

The groupof youngmenwas establishedin 2009 when they met in Mbizana SeniorSecondary School.

“We are from different places and be-lieve in different things, but through mu-sicwe came together and sang,” said Tape-lo Ntshothovu who is a group member.The group reported that their music is forall age groups as they believe in makingpeople happy, not with jokes but music.They confidently said that they were will-ing to go big and be seen by the wholeworld but it is hard for them to do so sincethey don’t have sponsors and a manager.

“We normally get people who say theywant tomanage our group but they end upusing us and leave us without anything,”Said Ntshothovu.

He said they heard their song playing onUkhozi FM Afternoon Drive show lastyear and they got a call asking them to goto the station but because of financialproblems they could not and they believethat if they could get a sponsor they couldmake Mbizana proud.

“We have passion and we are willing tomotivate the youth through music, makethe world a better place and create a socie-ty that is free of substance abuse anddrugs. But without support we won’t beable to spread our wings,” said Ntshotho-vu.

The group members consist of TapeloNtshothovu (21), Pakamani Ntuli (18),Yandisa Momo (18), and Sphamandla No-vuka, (18). Anyone who is willing to assistthe group in fulfilling their dreamsofmak-ing Bizana proud can contact the Expressoffices on 039 2510834.

PRESIDENT of the South African FootballAssociation (Safa) OR Tambo, Xolile Nkom-pela, has pleaded with the five local munici-palities under theORTamboDistrictMunic-ipality, to take sport seriously and to pro-mote professional sporting in theirrespective areas.

The OR Tambo District Municipality con-sists of five local municipalities, namely theMhlontlo, Port St Johns, Nyandeni, KingSabatha Dalindyebo and Ingquza Local Mu-nicipalities.In his recent media briefing, Nkompela

stressed that they wanted to create playerswho are hungry for success by being in-volved inMayoral tournaments in each localmunicipality and subsequently venture intodistrict leagues.“We now want to venture on bigger chal-

lenges in the district-mayoral tournaments.Teams will compete in their respective mu-nicipalities in a mayoral championship andsubsequently compete in the OT Tambo Dis-trict’s championship.

“We’ve had mayoral tournaments whichusually see a small number of teams partici-pating, but nowwewant themayoral tourna-ments to be part of a series andnot just a one-day event. The bigger the tournament, themore dedication will be shown by the play-ers and some may even have a chance of be-ing spotted by the PSL teams to play profes-sionally,” said Nkompela.He said after all the stadiums had been

built in each local municipality, they wereplanning on inviting PSL coaches to scoutfor newplayers through themayoral tourna-ments. Also the SouthAfrican national teamcoach, Ephraim ‘Shakes’Mashaba, is expect-ed to descend on the 2010 legacyMthatha sta-dium, soon.The President also announced the build-

ing of four stadiums in the Mhlontlo localmunicipalitywhich are currently in variousstages of construction. The stadiums are setto be of use to both local teams and schoolsin the promotion of professional football inthe region.In preparation for 2015, Minister of Sport,

FikileMbalulawill be handing over sportinggear at Tsolo sports ground soon.
