AMAN from the Deber-ha location in Ngcobois lucky to be aliveafter a brutal attackin a shebeen on the

night of September 5.

Zuko Ntungo (27) lost his lowerteeth and cannot speak properlybecause of stitches in his mouth.His head and body are full of inju-ries.

He is drinking only amahewuthrough a straw since he cannotchew food.

He said that on the night of theattack he had been in Ngcobo andhad gone to the taxi rank very lateto look for transport home.

Unfortunately there had beenno transport going to his areasince it was late, but luckily hehad met a driver who had agreedto take him home since he was al-so going to Deberha and Zukoknew him because they wereneighbours.

“We were about eight in thisQuantum. While we were on theway, the driver and his friends ar-gued about going back to anotherarea to find booze, since they hadfinished the case that was in thetaxi. When the passengers said itwas all right, the driver went backwith us to look for booze,” Zuko

said.When they went into the she-

been to buy the alcohol, an argu-ment had broken out between thedriver and other men who were inthe shebeen.

The argument had then turnedinto a huge fight.

“Another passenger, who is myneighbour, and I decided to walkaway even though it was dark be-cause we saw that our lives werein danger although we were notinvolved in this mess.

“While we were walking away,the attackers followed us. Theyassaulted me with sticks and oth-er dangerous weapons.”

Zuko said he had tried to hidein a water drain, but the attackershad seen him and forced him tocome out.

They took him to the Quantumand beat him again, but he wassaved by another neighbour, whorushed to the scene and firedshots to disperse the attackers.

He was then rushed to his homeby the neighbour and then takento the All Saints Hospital, wherehe was stitched, and then rushedto the Nelson Mandela AcademyHospital.

“I am still asking myself whythey attacked me because I hadnothing to do with the fight be-tween them and the driver and hisfriends.”

His cousin, Fani Ntungo, saidthey were very hurt about whathad happened to Zuko because hewas not a troublemaker.

“We don’t know why they did itto him, but a case has been openedagainst the attackers and we arelooking forward to justice takingits course,” Ntungo said.

Police spokesperson InspectorDineo Koena said a case of griev-ous bodily harm had been openedat the Ngcobo police station andthe matter was being investigat-ed.

REPORTER

RESIDENTS of Mthatha and surrounds areurged to present their dogs and cats for vac-cination against rabies as an alarming num-ber of cases have already been reported thisyear.

A World Rabies Day event was held inMthatha on Monday to raise awarenessabout this disease which can be transmittedto humans.

Rabies is caused by a virus that animalsand people can get through exposure to thesaliva or nervous tissue of a rabid animal,and is nearly always fatal without properpost-exposure prophylaxis.

The Eastern Cape Department of RuralDevelopment and Agrarian Reform says theOR Tambo district has had a higher numberof animal rabies cases this financial year,with 10 cases to date diagnosed positive.

Eight of thesewere in theKSDMunicipali-ty, some of which had human contact.

In the 2014/15 financial year, a total of fourhuman rabies cases were reported in theEasternCape alone by theNational Instituteof Communicable Diseases.

“Although rabies is 100% preventable andcan be eliminated, an estimated 21 500 peo-ple in Africa die from rabies every year,”says Professor Louis Nel, Global Director,Global Alliance for Rabies Control.

According to the SA Rabies statistics, ru-ral areas are at particularly high risk.

More than two-thirds of thepeoplewhodie

from rabies are children below the age of 15.Innearly all humanrabies cases, infection

was acquired through a bite or scratch froman infected dog.

Rabies prevention starts with the animalowner. All dogs and cats should be vaccinat-ed against rabies as per national regula-tions.

Human rabies is an acute, progressive in-fection and symptoms may include head-aches and fever, muscle pains, hydrophobia(fear of water) and difficult swallowing.

THEDeputyMinister of Cooperative Govern-ance and Traditional Affairs, Obed Bapela,has warned illegal iingcibi (surgeons) whocontinue to conduct illegal initiation schoolsto expect a toughandmerciless response fromthe government.

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

sponse to the continuing outcry of parentsand the community at large about injuries toand deaths of young boys during and after un-dergoing the initiation process, as well as tofurther reinforce and acknowledge the imple-mentation of the current relevant strategiesand legislation.Bapela agreed the initiation customwasout

of hand, but said the government wanted tostrengthen the law so that people who com-mercialised the custom received tough pun-ishment.“In this forthcoming circumcision season,

we will watch with an eagle eye. Traditionalsurgeons and nurses who do wrong and endup killing an initiate will get a minimum of10 years imprisonment. Themaximumwill befrom 15 to 20 years.We cannot allow the killing of our children,

who are the future of this country, by peoplewho want to generate money for their ownsake,” Bapela said.He said they wanted to abolish illegal

schools throughout the country and theyneeded this custom to be respected and not re-garded as a fashion. He urged initiates to en-sure that they went to schools authorised byiinkosi if they were in the rural areas and by

the municipality in the urban areas.He also stressed that this custommust also

adapt to medical male circumcision to alignwithmodernpractice. Professional circumci-sion doctors known to the area must bebrought in to lead this custom.Eastern CapeHouse of Traditional Leaders

chairperson Nkosi Ngangomhlaba Matanzi-ma called on parents to elect trusted, knowl-edgeable ingcibi and ikhankatha (traditionalsurgeons and nurses).“I am talking about a person who is going

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

ernment officials, women from various royalhouses, youngboys ready to undergo the ritu-al and young men who have already under-gone it.

STUDENTS at theKing SabathaDalindyeboTVET College in Mthatha are continuingwith their trial exams following a protestwhich lasted almost three weeks.

The students were complaining that theyhad not received their National Student Fi-nancial Aid Scheme (NSFAS) allowances.Everythingwent back to normal after par-

ents and management met to discuss the is-sue.Provincial Sasco executive committee

member Oscar Sifuba said a task team hadbeen selected to ensure that therewas a solu-tion to the problem.“At the moment I can say everything is

back to normal because of this task teamthat was selected, but we will see what hap-pens when they give us feedback,” he said.

Although the Cicira campus studentswere writing their trial exams, those at theNtabozuko campus in Elliotdale and at theNgcobo campus were continuing with theirprotest and not writing exams.Sifuba saidmost of the studentswere from

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

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

R36-million for tuition and allowances, butour students did not get those allowances,”college spokesman Sigqibo Kahla said.“The Ntabozuko campus has closed down

and themanagementwill negotiatewith stu-dents this week.“I can confirm that students at theNgcobo

campus are writing their exams.”

THE small nation of AmaBhala is mourningthe death of its prince, BulumkoNonkanyana(32), the sonofChiefMweloNonkonyana,whois an advocate, former vice-president of theSouth African Football Association and alsochief of AmaBhala in Flagstaff.

Bulumko, who was a prominent lawyer inMthatha, was found dead with stab woundsin the back of the head near the railway sta-tion in Mthatha on Monday, September 21.His funeralwill be held at his home location

of Marashu in Flagstaff this Saturday (Octo-ber 03).Bulumko was the oldest son of the second

wife of nkosi Mwelo Zanemvula Nonkonya-na, Bulelwa Makhesa Nonkonyana fromMount Fletcher, and a grandson of formerUnitedDemocraticFront (UDF) presidentOs-car Mpetha.His death is the second tragedy to hit his

family, following the death of his sister, Prin-cess Ncumisa Nonkonyana, in 1994 whiletheAmaBhala nationwas in the process of in-stalling nkosi Zanemvula.Princess Ncumisa was buried a week be-

fore the installation of her father.ChiefNonkonyana said at his homestead in

Fortgale that the tragic incident and loss ofsuch a son of the soil had torn the hearts ofthe Bhalas apart.“We invested a lot in Bulumko in terms of

education. Fromprimary school levelwe senthim to private schools. Vela was one of themand also Dale College in King William’sTown,” he said.After his matriculation, Bulumko went to

Rhodes University, where he obtained hisLLB degree.During his studies at Rhodes, he was an ac-

tivemember of theCongress of SouthAfricanStudents (Cosas).At the time of his death, Bulumko was a di-

rector of Keightley, Sigadla and NonkonyanaIncorporated in Mthatha and he was very ac-tive inContralesa as a son of the royal family.The Nonkonyanas had a very rare honour

as Bulumko practised as an attorney and hisfather is an advocate.“We both had a dream that one day he

would be an advocate and I would be a judge.But because of this tragedy all our dreamshave been shattered,” Nonkonyana said.“But I want to tell the nation to calm down

and give the prince the dignified funeral hedeserves. My son has left two men who willfollow in their father’s footsteps.”Bulumko, who was born on October 14,

1983, leaves his wife Nelisa and sons Mbon-govuyo (8) and Ntando (1).The police have confirmed that they are

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

his motives.Mavukwana’s mother, Zoleka Mavukwa-

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

PEOPLE with knowledge of traditionalherbs should share it with the govern-ment, the general manager of the Depart-ment of EconomicDevelopment, Environ-mental Affairs and Tourism, AlbertMfen-yana, has said.

Addressing hundreds of people in Qum-bu last Tuesday (September 22), he said itwas important to preserve such knowl-edge so that it couldbenefit thenext gener-ation.He said some of these herbs helped in

healingwhenused by expertswith knowl-edge of traditional medicine and its use.He saidmost black people diedwith val-

uable informationaboutherbs. Itwasnev-er recorded and just vanished.“Weneed to record their knowledge and

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

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

ists and our government paid more atten-tion to the western medicines, whereasours does the same.“We grew up, even you (referring to

Mfeyana), using traditional herbs. Preg-nantwomandrink amedicinemixedwithtraditional roots and herbs called isihlam-bezo (used previously when there were noclinics to prepare the unborn child for thetime of birth),” she said.She called on the government to fast-

FORMER University of Transkei vice-chan-cellor and Africa’s first black chartered ac-countant, Professor Wiseman Nkuhlu, hascalled on black students to take up charteredaccounting as the country needs more blackCAs.Nkuhlu was addressing Walter Sisulu Uni-

versity students and academics on the recent-lypublishedbiographyAlife of purposebyLu-vuyo Wotshela last Monday (September 21).Nkuhlu expressed concern over the atti-

tude of black Africans who always regardedthemselves as inferiors and chose low-profileprofessions because of their background of

oppression.He said they must be guided to see the im-

portance of choosing professions that wereneeded in this country and must grab suchopportunities with both hands.“They canmake it if they have a good foun-

dation from primary school. Accountingneeds discipline and hard work.“We cannot run away fromthe fact that the

oppression is not yet over in the minds ofblack South Africans.“Even though I come from the rural areas,

I toldmyself that I would take this professionand I would make it.“I haveno regrets and I’mproudof this pro-

fession I chose.Noone canbelieve that beforeI became a CA I was a clerk on themines, butI challenged accounting head-on and I be-came the first black CA, so why do you thinkyou cannot make it?” he said.Nkuhlu raised concerns over what he de-

scribed as lack of working progress in SouthAfrica.“We served the country during the difficult

time because of the apartheid regime andnow South Africa is free, but there are somany things that worry me.“South Africa belongs to us, so we need to

build a united nation, but our people contin-ue to destroy the property that belong tothem,” he said.Nkuhlu was referring to the widespread

protests which leave government propertydamaged.“South Africa comes first and all the lead-

ers or civil servants of this country must bedriven by the passion of serving the peopleand not putting their interests first,” he said.– SIMBONGILE MDLEDLE

THREE PhDs were conferred upon aca-demics in the Walter Sisulu University’shealth sciences faculty at theMthatha cam-pus onTuesday last week, bringing to eightthe total number of PhDs obtained by thefaculty this year.

The trio of accolades closely follows thefive PhDs awarded to the faculty during theMay graduation ceremony at the samecampus.A majority of 412 women were capped at

the NMD Great Hall, with 314 men receiv-ing this honour, and 31 of the total graduat-ing cum laude.Crossing the stage for his own PhD on

graduation day was no lesser personagethan the health sciences faculty dean him-self, Dr Wezile Chitha.“It’s important to lead by example by

walking the talk and leading from the front.One of the best ways of influencing andchanging behaviour is to inspire people –it’s better to let people emulate than topreach. I hope my departmental heads willfollow suit in obtaining their PhDs,” Chit-ha said.

A qualified medical doctor and healtheconomist, his research aligns itself withthe roll-out of the country’s ambitious Na-tional Health Insurance (NHI) scheme.The research interrogates how the

health systems can be strengthened, theirquality improved, and the instilling of ap-propriate health policies - findings rele-vant to the current preparations for imple-menting the NHI.“The challenge at themoment is that our

health system is not clinician-led, hencethe poor health outcomes and increasinglitigations. We focus on being politicallycorrect rather than dealing with the corebusiness of health,” Chitha said.“We will be launching our campaign

soon, ‘One Academic. One Idea. OneGrant’, to rally our staff, students and part-ners in pursuit of increased participationin research so we can produce new knowl-edge andmould a new brand of future lead-ers occupied with producing evidence andscientific- and knowledge-based solu-tions,” he said.A total of nine PhDs were awarded dur-

ing the ceremony, with six of these award-ed to academics in the educational sciencesfaculty.

Shame of this generationSometimes we ask ourselves about the future

of this country in thehandsofdrunkardsamongour young people.Ja, alcohol is not new, but these young people

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

drunk at the launch of an important projectaimed at developing the local youth and to gen-eratemoney for thearea, butkukhonaabazaku-lo mcimbi onjalo bephelile kukunxila. I wonderwhere we are going to. He was forcing his wayto the stage ukuba uyokwenza ntoni nobodyknows.Dear young people, let us limit our speed in

alcohol abuse because we are ruining ourselvesand the future of our beautiful country whichootata Mandela nabanye they fought for to befree. This honey that the blood spills before weget it seems as if sidlala ngayo ngoku.Abanye abasalali nasemakhaya leli jiki ba-

vumelaintoewrongethikozekuse.Phezaningo-

ku kwanele. Tell them gossip.

Okwenzileyo okubi kukulandela njalonaweUyabona ke okubi okwenzileyo nakuwe ku-

yenzeka and kukhawulezile konke oku. I won-der xa bedibana phaya eZulwini uza kuthi wa-yembulale ntoni usisi okanye ubhuti wakhe xabembuza? If bekundim Gesh bendakucela ba-yinike mna ifolokhwe yokumfaka esihogweniumntu obulele omnye kuba akumele ukuba si-bulale.

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

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

want to work hard andwant to get things in theeasiest way. They don’t believe in sweating inorder to attainhappiness in life. They can spendthe whole week in taverns if not shebeens.Even those who are lucky enough to get a job

just choose boozing rather than their precious

jobs and end up quitting the job because no em-ployer can allow a drunkard in his or her work-place. I wonder iingqondo zabo zisibenza nininormally xa zahlala zigqunywe lijiki.So if ouryoungpeoplebecomeheavydrinkers

but jobless,wherewill theyget themoney tobuymore booze?Obviously they have to steal and rob those

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

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

gogo xa bamkele i-“pay” abasalali emakhayenikubaezintwanazibazingelaokwenyamazani zi-funa le mali.Nakhona ke le mali aziyi kuthenga kutya be-

FOR this week’s Express on Wheels I hadthe pleasure of spending a week with abright yellow Sport version of the new OpelCorsa, and if it wasn’t the fun ride thatcaught my imagination, it sure was the col-our.

While I never thought a yellow car wouldever be my cup of tea, I certainly warmedup to it very quickly, and it certainly is ahead-turner.

The Sport, which was launched in Au-gust, is the top of the range model of Opel’sbrand-new 5th generation Corsa which waslaunched in SA in February. There are 5models in this range.

This 5-door 110 kW hatchback is aimedat the enthusiastic driver and equippedwith the latest engine from Opel’s ecoTECfamily of small petrol engines.

RideThe Sport is equipped with a 1.4 turbo-

charged ecoTEC engine which propels theCorsa from 0 to 100 km/h in 9.6 seconds,with a top speed of 204 km/h. The 1.4TSport’s tested fuel consumption is 5.9 litresper 100 km on the combined cycle.

The Corsa Sport comes with a six-speedmanual transmission with synchronisedgears, including reverse, with short shifttravel. It is a great car to take through thegears with easy gear selection and an eager-ness to get to sixth gear.

The new Corsa’s ride and handling havebeen improved with a new chassis andsteering systems. According to the peopleat Opel, a lower centre of gravity andchanges to the suspension have been madeto improve vehicle roll behaviour, steeringresponse and understeer behaviour.

The Sport’s combination of a good and ea-ger turbo-charge engine combined with ex-

cellent road behaviour and great comfortfeatures as standard spec is sure to createa lot of interest – not only among fans ofsporty vehicles but also those who see driv-ing as fun rather that just getting from Ato B.

From putting your foot on the pedal, itis a pleasure to drive. Its roadholding isvery good and where Sport models are usu-ally associated with a “sporty” bumpy ride,this was not the case with the Corsa, de-spite my pothole-ridden everyday route.

The car is swift-footed, yet driving it onealways felt safe and in control – both on theopen road and in city traffic. Even on steepinclines the engine performed well anddidn’t force you to gear down all the time.

Exterior

Those who do not like yellow have 14 oth-er colours to choose from. The Corsa Sporthas a few subtle differences from the othermodels in the range to add to its sporty look– front and rear bumper extensions, siderocker mouldings, sporty exhaust tip, andcarbon look outside rear view mirror cov-ers. The big 17 inch “ Dark Titanium” alloywheels add to the sporty look and I likedthe two-tone wheel rims of the test vehiclethat reminds me of flower petals.

Interior

The flowing lines of the dashboard givethe Corsa a quality feel. Its sporty naturewas emphasized by a leather-covered flatbottom sport steering wheel with silvertrim, metal sports pedals and a big, nice-to-grip leather gear shift knob.

Opel’s Intellilink infotainment systemcomes standard in the Sport, offering an

easy to operate 7-inch touchscreen and con-nection to smartphones. Sound is operatedvia Bluetooth and a USB port.

Standard specsThe Opel Corsa Sport has a 5-Star NCAP

safety rating.The comprehensive list of safety features

found standard in the Corsa Sport includessix airbags, Electronic Stability Control(ESC) system. Traction Control (TC) isstandard in the Electronic Stability Con-trol (ESC). The primary goal of TractionControl is to prevent wheel slip from spin-ning during acceleration. Straight line Sta-bility (SLS) and Brake Assist System(BAS), is a braking technology that increas-es braking pressure in an emergency situa-

tion.The Corsa Sport boasts an impressive list

of high-spec features as standard, such asauto lights and wipers, auto-dimming rearview mirror, bi-Xenon lights with corner-ing light control, electric windows and mir-rors, the 7-inch touchscreen infotainmentsystem with smartphone navigation andapp integration, air-conditioning, reversecamera with rear park assist and cruisecontrol.
