SPECULATION is rife that the KoukammaMunicipality operates a “jobs for comrades”scheme after employing an unqualified ANCmunicipal official to a key directorship post.

This is according to disgruntled residents,who are accusing themunicipality of compro-mising quality, standards and service deliv-ery for the sake of enriching its members.They now demand proof of qualifications

for the Director of Technical and Infrastruc-ture Services, Olwethu Kwababana. Qualifi-

cations they do not believe she has.Kwababana was appointed in October 2014

as the Technical Director of the Koukamma

region – a key position in a region that is rid-dledwith infrastructureproblems.Accordingto Derick Vrey, vice-chairperson of AfriFo-rum in the Langkloof, Kwababana formedpart of a multi-million Rand procurement di-saster in Amahlati Municipality in Stutter-heim.“Furthermore, she was still employed at

Amahlati Municipality when she startedworking as Koukamma Technical Director.Her employment contract with Amahlati Mu-nicipality clearly stipulates that her contractis from July 1, 2014 to June 30, 2015.”She thus left Amahlati Municipality three

months after commencing work there.Kwababana’s employment follows twodisas-

trous appointments where the particular em-ployees not only gave false information ontheirCurriculumVitas, butwerealso involvedwith various fraudulent activities when itcame to money and the awarding of contracts.“The fact that they got away with it for an

extended period of time and that none of theembezzled money was ever recovered or anyconvictions made, is a clear indication thatthose responsible for appointing staff mem-bers have no clue what they are doing,” saysVrey.

FOLLOWING all the correct procedures, Afri-Forum has since 2014 on numerous occasionsrequested access to the proof of qualificationsfor Kwababana, says Very. This includes a de-gree inCivil Engineering and extensive experi-ence in water services, housing, roads, sewer-age andmunicipal infrastructure services both

in terms of construction and maintenance.To date, they have not been provided with

any proof of qualifications, but Vrey is ada-mant that they will not stop until they eithersee the proof requested or the lack thereof.“Looking at the infrastructure of Koukam-

ma, especially the roads and dilapidated wa-ter system, one is obviously bound to thinkKwababana does not have the necessary qual-ifications and the municipality is only con-cerned with the welfare of its members,” says

Very. “We cannot understand why and howshe got the position.“Upon visitingmy office, I asked her direct-

ly whether she has the necessary qualifica-tions or not. She could not answer me – shedid not say yes or no. My question is, if youhave the qualifications, why not say so? Whyall the secrecy?”According to Very, Mababana is in charge

of 10 sewerage systems, 12 water pump sta-tions and the infrastructure of 10 towns in the

Koukamma region. “Instead of things im-proving, they are getting worse by the day.Joubertina, Ravina, Louterwater and Mis-gund have been without water for weeks onend and the roads are riddled with potholes.“We are in desperate need of a Technical Di-

rector with the necessary know-how and whois capable of solving all the problems.”) The Koukamma Municipality declined tocomment on the numerous queries directedat them by the Kouga Express.

FORmore than a year OceanBasket in Jef-freys Bay has been serving its customerswith excellence, taking pride in serving af-fordable quality food with a smile.

The family-owned restaurant was re-cently awarded the much coveted HygieneAward by Food Consulting Services (FCS),an independent quality control companythat evaluates all Ocean Basket restau-rants on a three-monthly basis.The FCS Hygiene Audit or Technical Sur-

vey is designed to evaluate the hygiene, san-itation, food safety and facilities in kitchensin the food service industry. The audits areperformed for clients in the hotel, gaming,restaurant, and catering industries, and aretailor made to the unique needs of each cli-ent.A microbiological evaluation of surface

swabs, hand swabs, food samples andwatersamples forms part of the audit, and pro-vides scientific evidence as to the food safe-ty, hygiene and sanitation standards in thekitchen.The FCS Hygiene Audit ensures that a

statistically representative number of mi-crobiological samples are evaluated to beable to provide a meaningful microbiologi-cal index for the surface swabs, hand swabs,food samples and a compositemicrobiologi-cal index.Themicrobiological indices are present-

ed on a graph and tracked over the previ-ous three audits to provide a trend overtime.“Our biggest asset is our staff, who are

dedicated, friendly and passionate aboutour business. We believe in teamwork andthe results are evident in the positive feed-back we get from our valued customers,”says co-owner Claudia Smit.

THE Executive Mayor of the Sarah Baart-man District Municipality, Khunjuzwa Eu-nice Kekana, together with the Speaker ofCouncil, Deon De Vos, handed over approxi-mately 48 cheques of R5 000 each to top per-forming Grade 12’s of 2015.“As the District Municipality, we realized

that the majority of these top performinglearners, one from each school in the Dis-trict, come from a previously disadvantagedbackground andwould need assistance in or-

der to successfully enter tertiary education.We wanted to invest in the future of thesepromising learners,” says Kekana.The ceremony was also attended by

learners who are currently in Grade 12, aswell as the school principals, educators,may-ors of the respective localmunicipalities andcouncillors from the Sarah Baartman Dis-trict Municipality. Kekana praised the dedi-cation of the educators and encouraged themto keep up the good work.

NET toe Jeffreysbaaiers begin dink daar is ’nnuwe natuurfenomeen aan’t ontwikkel, toevind hulle uit Kimberley se groot gat is niebesig om oral kleintjies te kry nie – dis maarnet ons munisipale werkers wat gate graweom waterpype te herstel en dan vergeet omdit op te vul.

Wat die publiek graag wil weet, is eenvou-dig: wanneer so ’n gat gegrawe is en die pypeherstel is, waarom neem dit so lank voor hier-die Ongeluk-wat-wat-om-te-gebeur toegegooiword? Hoe lank neem dit bekwame werkersom vas te stel of die nuwe pype ook lek voordathulle die werk voltooi?

Behalwe vele ander jong Kimberlietjies, isdie mees onlangse gat in Astonbaai reeds opDinsdag 27 Januarie met ’n tru-grawer oop-gedolwe. Die paar pale wat as waarskuwings-middel moet dien, het omgeval, die rooi-en-wit lint het gevorder van halfmas tot op diegrond, en die afsigtelike gat ontsier Pelikans-

ingel reeds vir ’n week.Die publiek stel belang in presies hoe lank

dit neem om so ’n projek te voltooi – vanaf dieoomblik dat ’n ernstige lekkasie aangemeldis, totdat die gat gegrawe is en die pyp ver-vang, geanaliseer en toegegooi is. Is daar ver-skillende spanne – oopgrawers, pyplêers, pyp-analitici, toegooiers?

Hoe lank neem dit om te sien of ’n nuwe pypbegin lek, of is dit standaardpraktyk om so ’ngat vir ’n week of drie oop te los? En, in beson-der – word daar gewag tot iemand met ’n mo-tor in so ’n gat beland voordat daar vinnigergewerk word?

Geen kommentaar kon teen druktyd vandie Kouga-munisipaliteit verkry word nie.

DIE watervlak van die Joubertina-dam in dieKoukamma-munisipaliteit het tot by die half-metermerk gesak.

Diemunisipaliteit is verlede Donderdag ge-waarsku dat die dam, wat water aan sowat1 300 huishoudings verskaf, leegloop en datdit net genoeg water vir vier dae oor het. Vry-dag het die damvlak op 1,5 m gestaan, teenMaandag het dit tot 0,5 m gesak.“Dis ’n krisis. Die mense staan op die punt

om geen water te hê nie en die Koukamma-munisipaliteit smeer hulle af aan die pro-bleem,” sê Elza van Lingen, DA-leier in dieTsitsi-Kouga-kiesafdeling.In Joubertinaword sowat 300 huishoudings

geraak en in die Ravinia-woonbuurt sowat1 000.Van Lingen het sê onbehandelde water

word nou uit ’n ander dam gepomp en moeteers gekook word voordat dit gebruik word.“Die probleem is alreeds Donderdag onder

die munisipaliteit se aandag gebring, maartot nou het niks gebeur nie.

“Leon Basson, ons party se woordvoerderoorwater en sanitasie, is nou besig om te kykwaar hy noodleniging kan kry, sodat ons vanêrens af water kan kry vir die mense.”

Die waterkrisis gaan gepaard met vermor-sing, meen Francois Strydom, DA-raadslid.

“Ek het self die lekkasies op die hooftoe-voerlyngetel. Ekhet rofweguitgewerkdat so-wat 50 000 liter water per uur vermors word.Waar is die oorlog teen lekkasies?”’n Amptenaar van die departement water-

wese en sanitasie wat Maandag by die damwas, het bevestig dat die watervlak baie laagis en dat die hooftoevoerlyn na die watersui-weringsaanleg verskeie lekplekke het.

“Blykbaar kan boere se waterklep by diedamnie heeltemal sluit nie. Die lekplek vandie damnadiewatersuiweringsaanlegmoeteers herstel word en daarna kan die lekka-sies in die dorpe bepaal word,” aldus VanLingen.

Die munisipale bestuurder, Sabelo Nkhu-lu, het met die eerste oproep van Die BurgerMaandagmiddag gesê hy is in ’n vergaderingen sal 20 minute later beskikbaar wees. Daar-opvolgende oproepe is nie beantwoord nie.

JOUBERTINA se wekelange water krisis watmenige inwoner hoog en droog en erg omge-krap gelaat het, was vir ’n kort wyle eers ietsvan die verlede.

Dié krisis het niks met ’n tekort aan waterte doene gehad nie, maar met probleme in diewatervoorsieningstelsel.

As dit nie was vir ’n plaaslike inwoner watingegryp het nie, het mense op die dorp son-der ophou sonder water gesit nadat krane se-dert November verlede jaar slegs drup-drupgewerk het.

Die gebied wat die meeste geaffekteer was,strek vanaf PJ Retiefstraat tot by Willam

Stewartstraat, asook Kloof- en Vygiestraat.Volgens Derick Vrey, ondervoorsitter van

AfriForum in Joubertina, het hy dié keer ’nuitsondering op sy eie reël gemaak. “Ek is dieKoukamma-munisipaliteit se grootste vyand,maar wanneer hulle sonder water sit, is ekewe skielik goed genoeg om te help,” sê hy nadiemunisipaliteit tweeweke terug sy hulp in-geroep het na hulle reeds weke sukkel om diewaterprobleem op te los.

Vrey, met die hulp van ’n munisipale wer-ker, het voorverlede Saterdag die probleembinne ure opgelos. Vroeg daardie Sondagog-gendhetwasgoedlynekleurvol in diewind ge-wapper - iets wat vir lank onmoontlik was.

Volgens Vrey het hulle verskeie pypbreukeherstel en ’n hele ou waterlyn uit die sisteem

gesny en met ’n nuwe waterpyp vervang.“Die waterstelsel aan die onderkant van

Joubertina is al meer as 40 jaar oud en so tesê tot niet. Indien dit nie vervang gaan wordnie, gaan die pype bly bars,” sê Vrey.

Volgens ’n ontstoke inwoner wat anoniemwil bly, het almal in die dorp ’n watertenk.“Ons het nie veel van ’n keuse nie. As ons wa-ter wil hê, moet ons ’n watertenk hê. Van dieinwoners het nie eens die geld om ’n tenk tekoop nie, maar hulle krap hulle laaste sentebymekaar net om water te hê,” sê sy.

“Dit is die eerste keer in weke wat ons be-hoorlike drukking in ons krane het. Voor ver-lede Sondag kon ons nie stort of wasgoed wasnie en moes inwoners by vriende en familiein Twee Rivier, wat nog slootwater gebruik,

gaan stort of bad.”Tot inwoners se ergenis, was die verligting

slegs van korte duur en sit die grootste ge-deelte van Joubertina en Ravinia weereenssedert verlede Vrydag sonder water.Volgens Koukamma se waarnemende mu-

nisipale bestuurder, Mlamli Zensile, worddaar aandag geskenk aan alle probleemge-biede.

“Gedurende die 2014-’15-boekjaar is al diemunisipale waterstasies voorsien van toe-rusting om die dosis chemikalieë na te gaan.Watermonsters word elke maand na die na-sionale gesondheidslaboratorium gestuur.”Ditwil voorkomasof daar ’n groot lekkasie,

of ’n paar lekkasies, in Joubertina is as gevolgvan ou en verweerde infrastruktuur.

IT is in her DNA to help others.

Lorinda Maritz, owner of Aqua Spa, is not only teach-ing six strugglingwomen the art of beauty, but she is alsoteaching them how to dream again.With a passion for God, women and beauty, she

reached out to six women from the informal settlementsof Jeffreys Bay, Humansdorp and Hankey respectively- taking them under her wing and training them to bequalified beauty therapists.Sibongile Mutambo, Thabisile Polani, Connie Bobo,

Nandipha Thimbela,MorenchaWitbooi andDollyMake-le - who were all looking for a job and an opportunityto uplift themselves - would never have dreamt that theirlives would change to such an extent.Apart fromBoboandWitbooi, none of thesewomenhas

ever dreamt of becoming a beauty therapist. Thimbelawas looking for a job as a security officer just to put foodon the table, while others were selling clothes fromhometo earn a living.Now, five months later, they are not only excelling as

beauticians - especially massage therapists - but they arealso enjoying every moment and know that they havefound their calling in life.To them it is not a work, it is living out their dreams.According toMaritz, the professionofmassage therapy

is growing rapidly, and as such there is an increasingdemand for professionally-trained therapists.“One morning God woke me up with the message: You

say you love women, why do you not train those less fortu-nate?” says Maritz who was looking for massage thera-pists at that time.“It suddenly dawned on me, I need hands and these

women need an income. It was such an amazing feelingwhen I came to realise that.“I am extremely grateful that I have been blessed with

the opportunity to train these wonderful women.”According to Maritz, they have achieved and mas-

tered a lot in just a few months. “They started off bylearning the techniques of massage therapy. Fromthere they progressed to body exfoliations and pedi-cures.“I am so proud of what they have achieved in such a

short period of time.”

JEFFREYSBAAI ENOMGEWING

Golwe,duine,dolfyne& fietsroetes

Jeffreysbaai en omstreke ís waarlik die eenstop-alles-vakansie: roei, seil, vlieërplankry, visvang,fietsry en ... noem maar op! FOTO’S: JACQUES MARAIS

Jeffreysbaai bied die ideale gesinsvakansie,want terwyl pa branderplank ry, kan diekinders in die vlakker branders baljaar én opdie waterwurm jol.

JACQUES MARAIS

Ek wil nou nie hoes, paap of lippe klap nie,maar 2015 was ’n lang jaar. Teen eindeDesember was my gô geheel en al uit, en

dit was sonder twyfel tyd vir ’n ordentlike va-kansie, vêr weg van die malle stadsgejaag.Dus het ons vroeg in Januarie die bakkie be-gin pak en met branderplanke, fietse, kindersen kajakke koers gevat lekker ou Oos-Kaaptoe.

Ons idee was Jeffreysbaai – my ouers hetdaar afgetree – maar dié tyd van die jaar ishierdie kusdorp tot barstens toe vol, en onshet toe maar Astonbaai gekies as ons Plan B.

Geen winkelsentrums, geen hotelle, geenverkeersligte en geen verkeer nie; dis ’n ge-sinsparadys. Ook geen wonder die naam vandie dorpie aan die oorkant van die rivier is

Paradysstrand nie.Daar is darem ’n Portugese peri-peri-res-

taurant en ’n soort 7-Nege-winkeltjie virbrood, melk en ander dergelikhede. Ander-sins kan jy natuurlik wag vir “Die MelckMan” se drywende winkel, indien jy gelukkiggenoeg is om langs Marina Martinique se ka-nale te bly.

Elke oggend so skuins ná sonop sal jy diehuisboot, wat aan Nicholas Melck behoort,êrens op die marina sien rondvaar, vol varsciabatta-brode, muffins, skons, croissants,melk en so meer. Jy fluit net hard genoeg, dangooi hy anker teenaan jou blyplek en jy doenjou aankope sommer in jou swembroek!

Daar is ook heelwat ander dinge wat jy hierop die rand van die amper-Sonskynkus kandoen. Bring jou SUP-roeiplank en verken diewaterweë staan-staan, of gaan kajak waar dierustige Seekoeirivier by Aston in die oseaan

uitmond.Daar is ook ’n klein natuurreservaat waar

’n mens kan draf, stap en voëlkyk (flaminkeen pelikane moet sekerlik op jou lysie wees).

Indien jy lus is vir ’n langer draf of stap,wagdaar goed 20 km se ongetemde kus by KaapSt. Francis verby tot by Oesterbaai. Die kanseis uitstekend dat dit net jy en die seemeeuehier teen die Indiese Oseaan gaan wees, wantgroot dele van die kuslyn is geproklameer asbewareas of private natuurreservate.

Mik egter verder oos teen die kus op en jysal by Jay-Bay-proper beland. Hier wag op joustrande soos supertubes –wat bekendheid ver-werf het inkultusflieks soosTheEndless Sum-mer. Indien jy dapper genoeg is, kan jy die le-gendariese golwe hier aandurf.

Ekhouvanbranderplank ry,maar tubes salvir my wees soos om Wimbledon met ’n sto-kou houtraket en plaashek-voorhand te pak.

Gelukkig ken ek die breek by Kitchen Win-dows – met Phantoms net ’n bietjie verder uitop die punt – en dis die perfekte speelplek virmy.

Dis ook reg langs die hoofstrand, waar diekinders in die golwe kan baljaar of op die wa-terwurm kan gaan jol.

Moeg vir sand en seelug? Saal jou bergfietsop en mik na die Impala Ranch (www.fattracks.co.za) of die ongelooflike roetes bydie Jbay MTB Park (www.3riverstrails.co.za).

Beide bestemmings is minder as 20 min sery van Jeffreysbaai en bied wêreldklas-roetesvir stap, bergfietsry en veldhardloop in dienatuur. Op die koop toe is daar heelwat wildediere en voëls te sien.

Al wat ’n mens aan die einde van so vakan-sie kan sê, is: “Oos-Kaap, jou lekker ding!”

Meer inligting en resultate is by www.visiteasterncape.co.za beskikbaar.

En dan is daar soveel natuurparadyse om diebergfiets weer lekker op dreef te kry.

Hou jy van oopwaterswem in “kalmer”waters? Gaan dan na Marina Martinique.
