ANelderlyman,who is not sureof his age, is waiting for hisday of death at home after hewas allegedly chased away bythe Mthatha General Hospi-tal, with nurses claiming that

he was not sick compared with other peoplewho were being treated there.

This is despite Mvuthuza Khovana enter-ing the hospital on a stretcher.After his rejection, he had to hire a car to

get back home as he had been transported byambulance to the hospital.Khovana is lying sickonhis dilapidatedbed

at home, which is not a sterile environment,nursed by his wife and younger brother, whohave to change him and clean up if he wetsthe bed.

He cannot sit, stand or walk and lies on hisbed day and night. If he needs to move, some-one must come and turn him.As a result of his long time in the bed he

has developed sores on his lower body. Hemust endure unbearable pain because he hasno medication to ease it.Khovana’s problem started last year

around October when he fell on the doorstep.After that his legs failed to carry him be-

cause of lack of use.Because of the pain, he called an ambulance

and was taken to hospital, where he was

turned away twice.Now the old man says he is resigned to the

fact that he will not get medical attentionfrom the hospital.“Nyana (my son) I did not believe it when

the nurses told me I was not ill even thoughI was in unbearable pain.“I am still askingmyself how sick you need

to be for the hospital to admit you.“I am hoping that a good Samaritan can

come and assist me, but I don’t want to be inthat hospital. They should rather take me tothe hospital in East London,” the old mansaid.“I am still astonished,” said his younger

brother, Sebenzile Khovana,whowas presentduring Express’s visit to the old man’s home.

“What kind of hospital can say a person isnot ill when he cannot move or even take aspoon to his mouth?”The homestead is not far from former presi-

dent Nelson Mandela’s grave on his farm inQunu.Mandela is globally known of fighting for

the liberationof this country, andpeoplewereexpected to benefit from the freedom hefought for, also in the health system. But de-spite this his neighbour has been turned backtwice by the Mthatha General Hospital.Express tried several times to call the hospi-

tal’s communication department,but in vain.At time of going to print no answers had

been received to the questions we sent to thedepartment’s spokesperson.

called a neighbour, Eric Ngqaqu, who is a lo-cal mechanic, to come and grind off the pad-lock of the shack.”Ngqaqu said he had heard Ngxingweni

screaming for help and raced to the shack.“I first tried kicking down the door, but re-

alised it was locked with an iron padlock. Ithen ground it down so we could rescue who-ever was inside.”“Unfortunately awindgust blew the fire to-

REPORTER

THEDepartment of Trade and Industry (DTI)will allocate more funds for the revitalisationof Mthatha’s Vulindlela Heights IndustrialPark, director-general Lionel October has an-nounced.

October was addressing businesspeople atan industrial business stakeholders’ work-shop hosted by the department and the KingSabataDalindyeboMunicipality at theMthat-ha Stadium on Wednesday last week.The purpose of the workshop was to brief

businesspeople operating in the industrialpark on the progress the department hasmade in its efforts to revitalise the park.“We have already allocated R22-million for

the first phase of the revitalisation of thispark,” October said.“This is intended to take care of the basic

infrastructure in the park such as roads, elec-tricity, security and water.“In the new financial year, the department

will make more money available for the nextphase of theupgrading of this park.Our objec-tive is to make Vulindlela a world-class, mod-ern industrial park.”He said the DTI’s objectivewas to revitalise

South Africa’s old industrial parks in orderto boost broader economic and industrial de-velopment in the townships and rural areaswhere they were located.This, he said, would enable them to contrib-

ute to economic growth, diversification ofeconomic activity, attracting investments tothose areas, job creation and addressing ine-quality and eradicating poverty.Businesspeoplewhoattended theworkshop

also learnt that the implementation of thefirst phase of the upgrading of the VulindlelaIndustrial Park would begin this week.The Development Bank of Southern Africa,

which has been appointed by the DTI to rollout the infrastructure-upgrading part of theproject, has appointed a contractor who willbe on site to commence work on the day.“The government has prioritised the revi-

talisation of industrial parks because of theirimportance in promoting industrialisationand manufacturing,” October said.“We are stimulating agriculture, agro-proc-

essing, beneficiation and manufacturingthroughout the country as a way of growingour economy and industrial parks like Vulin-dlela have a critical role in ensuring that weachieve our economic objectives.”Speaking onbehalf of theMthathaBusiness

Chamber of Commerce, Andile Mvinjelwasaid business in the area welcomed the revi-talisation initiative undertaken by the DTI.He indicated that business would appreci-

ate being consulted more on matters relatedto the programme so that they could fully par-ticipate andcontribute to its successful imple-mentation.“We are appealing to the DTI to extend its

assistance to other areas of Mthatha where

economic activities are taking place.“In particular, the panel-beating industry

in Mthatha has a lot of potential, but there isa need for the government to support the in-dustry in order for it to reach its potential,”

he said.He also appealed to October to ensure that

the contractor appointed to upgrade the Vu-lindlela Industrial Park infrastructure pro-cured material and skills locally.

ALVENÉ APPOLLIS

RESIDENTS of theWild Coast are up in armsover the murder of a prominent environmen-tal activist who campaigned against the con-troversial mining plans in the area.Sikhosiphi Bazooka Rhadebe, the

chairperson of the Amadiba CrisisCommittee (ACC), was shot deadlast week in his home in Lurhol-weni township, Amadiba area,Mbizana, at 7.30 pm on Tuesdaylast week. He was allegedlyshot by two men posing as po-lice officers.His wife and son were in-

jured in the attack.Police spokesperson Lieuten-

ant Kyaha Tonjeni said acharge of murder was be-ing investigated.Rhadebe had gunshot

wounds in his upperbody.“The police found

spent cartridge cases onthe scene and are fol-lowing up all leads,”said Tonjeni.At the time of going

to print no arrests had yet been made.Tonjeni said themotive for themurder was

not known.The ACC, however, says it believes the

murder is directly linked to the committee’scampaign to stopmining activities in the areabetween the Kwanyana and Mnyameni riv-ers.The Australian mining company MRC(Ltd) applied in 2008 to mine titanium

here. Their application was denied.The ACC issued a statementshortly after Rhadebe’s murdersaying that it was an assassina-tion.“Our beloved Bazookamade

the ultimate sacrifice defend-ing our ancestral land of Ama-diba on the Wild Coast,” thestatement read.” The hitmen came in a

white Polo with a rotatingblue lamp on the roof. Twomen knocked at the door,

saying theywere thepo-lice. Mr Rhadebe wasshot with eight bul-lets in the head. Hedied defending hisyoung son, who wit-nessed the murder,”the statement read.The committee said

in the statement thatafter one year of threats and attacks, they hadbeen expecting something like this to happen.The statement referred to shootings in Xolo-beni on May 3 last year and Christmas shoot-

ings in Mdatya village.They also accused the police of intimidat-

ing the Amadiba community and leaders innightly raids.“TheAustralianminingcompanyMRCand

all the criminals in high positionswho are ea-ger to cut their piece of our land and fill theirpockets with blood money, shall know this:The Amadiba coastal community will not beintimidated into submission,” the statementread.MRC-spokespersons did not respond to in-

quiries.The ACC’s lawyer, Richard Spoor, said

Rhadebe’s death would not affect their courtbattle with MRC.Spoor, in conjunction with the Legal Re-

sources Centre (LRC) in Grahamstown, ob-tained an urgent interim interdict last yearagainst intimidation and violence againstACC members.The legal team is also in the process of lodg-

ing an application with the high court thatMRC’s re-application for mining be declined“Mining along theWild Coast will result in

residents having to leave their homes.We arenot saying that the chaos around the miningin the area has anything to dowith Rhadebe’sdeath; thatmustbedeterminedby thepolice,”said Spoor.“What I do know, however, is that the

MRC’s application is dividing the communityand has resulted in violence. Residents stay-ing inland in Bizana see themining activities

as a possible source of job opportunities for thecommunity,” said Spoor.He said itwas 200 families along the coastwho

would be forced to sacrifice their way of life.Henk Smith, LRC-attorney, said he hoped the

government would intervene.“Earlier this month the South African gov-

ernment was called in Geneva before the Hu-man Rights Commission about the threats andintimidation of activists opposed to mining inXolobeni,” said Smith.

DEPUTY Trade and Industry MinisterMzwandile Masina has made a plea to localgovernments to set aside a percentage of theirwork-wear procurement budget to be ac-cessed by fashion designers.

Masina was speaking during the awardingof certificates to 34 fashion designers inMthatha recently.

The certificates were for fashion designerswho received technical training at the fashiondesign innovation centre. The event was host-ed by the Eastern Cape Art and Culture Coun-cil.

Masina said this was a practical way inwhich they could ensure fashion enterprisesbecame financially sustainable and contribut-ed to the creation of employment for designers.

He urged government entities such as theECDC, SEDA, district agencies and the pri-vate sector to join the department by commit-ting funding and material support in buildingyoung fashion designers’ technical expertise.

“We need to have all these people and givethem all ongoing support in order for the in-

dustry to grow.“For us this is the practical way in which

we can ensure these enterprises become finan-cially sustainable and create employment for

designers,” Masina said.“We want to congratulate all of you for your

tenacity to have gone through this vigoroustraining by our accredited institutions.”

“We hope that you are not just going to hangthese certificates but are going to use them tochange your lives and change the lives of thelocals here in the Eastern Cape,” he added.

Fashion designer Ncumisa Zibi was thank-ful of the initiative by the department whichhas opened doors for many designers throughthe trainings.

“This initiative has given some of the de-signers the zeal to even wake up in the morn-ing and pursue their dream because theyknow they have a place they can go to and un-fold the vision they have,” she said.

“When people imagine fashion they imag-ine walking on the ramp, but beyond that,there are families to be feed, there’s a need forfinancial income.

“We are saying there should be models thatassist with that because the ultimate purposeis to be incubated, trained and fully fledgedand contribute to the economy,” said Zibi.

OR Tambo municipality executive mayorNomakhosazana Meth said the graduation ofthe designers was very significant to the mu-nicipality as the focus is one of developing askilled society to take on the challenges of ourdeveloping the country.

A NATIONWIDE campaign by the Govern-ment Employee Pension Fund (GEPF) was inMount Frere last week to engage beneficiaries,pensioners and its GEPF members on fund ad-ministration.

The fund says it is important for its membersto knowexactlyhow theirpension fundis man-aged as many have fallen victim to bogus ad-vice from brokers.

It says many government employees havebeen given the wrong advice to resign fromgovernment work just before retirement age inorder to access all their benefits and abandonthe fund.

This poor decision is said to have cost manyof the beneficiaries their life savings as thefund will no longer be an administrator of theperson’s funds after this.

The GEPF campaign in Mount Frere ad-dressed the challenges faced by its membersand their exit benefits, such as delays in docu-ment processing and payouts.

Free State GEPF regional office managerManelisi Luxande reminded members andpensioners that GEPF services were offered atno price or fee and they must always visit theoffices in all provinces for free and good-quali-ty services.

“GEPF members and pensioners must veri-fy with GPAA local offices any information

from the media and/or people masqueradingas employees of GPAA that unsettles them.

“Nobody can speed up your claim at a fee.It isnotnecessarytoenlist theservicesofa law-yer in order to access your pension benefits.

“We urge you to be vigilant of people offeringassistance for pension benefits at a fee. If youare not vigilant enough, you are bound to fallvictim to fraudsters. Such has been rife in theEastern Cape,” he said.

He was referring to the advice of bogus bro-kers who the fund says are responsible formany people misusing their life savings.

Office of the Premier representative Zwel-inzima Nonkonela encouraged members to al-ways update their information with the fund

Pension fund engageswith beneficiaries

as that would assistin ensuring thattheir claims werepaid accurately andon time.

Many active mem-bers and pensionersexpressed their de-light that the fundhad visited their ar-ea and they had arare opportunity toraise their concerns,ask questions andcheck their status onthe system.

They were alsohappy because it wasthe second commu-nity roadshow totake place in MountFree within a periodof two years.

GEPFis the largestpension fund in Afri-ca, with more than1.2 million contribut-ing members andabout 400 000 pen-sion recipients.

The fund, estab-lished in 1996, is re-sponsible for morethan R1.7-trillion ofassets under its man-agement.

AFTER hosting a Christmas party at the Po-lar Park preschool in Mthatha in 2014, Wom-enwithVisionmemberswere touched by thesituation there and came up with a vision tochange the lives of the children at the creche,which is surrounded by poor and unem-ployed communities.

The 40 children were learning in a smallzinc shed with no windows which was un-bearably hot in summer and very cold inwinter.Women with Vision made their goal forlast year to build a decent classroom for thechildren where they could feel safe and hap-py while they learnt. They raised money forthe project by hosting events.Their vision and dreamcame true recentlywhen the preschool was officially handedover to the community.Women with Vision chairperson RashidaMukadam, said: “Yes we did it, turned the

tin shed into a beautiful classroom with anadditional resting area and also a play-ground and vegetable garden.“Getting to this pointwas not an easy task.It took a huge investment, not just of moneyfrom our generous donors. The time, effortand sweat put in by everyone involved wasunmeasurable.”She urged the community to see the needto treasure this school.“Our hope is that the children who attendthis school will grow into successful youngadults,” she said.“We did face many challenges to get thisschool to where it is. We could not raiseenough funds to complete the project, hencephase two will be our goal for this year.“Ablution facilities for the children are es-timated at R40 000, of whichwe have alreadyraised R14 000,” Mukadam said.She expressed her gratitude to all thesponsors who supported this project and al-so appealed to the business community tocome forward to assist with phase two.

THE young people from OR Tambo and Al-fred Nzo region who participated in an ini-tiative called theNationalRural YouthSer-vices Coop are demanding their practicalsand their certificates after completingtheir training.They said they had been told they wouldget practical experience and after thatwould be awardedwith certificates to showthat they had done training in the project.But to their dismay they did not get thepromised practical experience in the build-ing course, or their certificates.The project started in 2010, training

young people for various careers includingbuilding, agriculture and plumbing.Reliable sources have said that theproject was supposed to be for two yearsbut was extended to December last year.Thandinkosi Mgamtsha from Port StJohns said: “We spent a lot of time waitingfor certificates, but now the responsiblepersons are sending us from pillar to post.“We should have completed this trainingin six months, but they always introduceunnecessary extensions for which we can-not afford to wait because we need to proveourselves in the workplace.“If these people continue playing thishide and seek concerning our certificates

the chances of getting work are slim as noone will recognise us without certificates.“It’s worse that they never gave us thatpractical building experience they prom-ised. Before we leave here we demand theresolution of these two issues,” Mgamtshasaid.“We need practical experience because itwas theory right through.We cannot devel-op ourselves with theory only, and we can-not afford to spend seven yearswithout get-ting certificates,” said Mandla Mayopefrom Dangwana location.Attempts to get hold of a Mr Rala whowas conducting the trainingwere fruitless,with his phone remaining unanswered.

THEREare free-market system loyalistswhohave an agenda to capture the state and im-pose their agenda on the population of thecountry, Deputy Trade and Industry Minis-ter Mzwandile Masina says.

He says the economic difficulties faced bythe country are nothing new, having startedin 2008 during the global economic collapse,and are a direct result of those who do notwant to transform.He says the economic situation of the coun-try is dire at the moment, and active partici-pation by the majority is needed to ensurethe free market advocates do not get theirway.“The crisis that we are facing today is out-side of our control”“It is whenwe have an active participationof the black majority in the productive sideof the economy that we can run sustainableeconomic growth.“If we can’t get as many black people to theproductive side of the economy we will bemissing the point.”Masina says the country is in this state be-cause of the “monopoly capitalists” who aretrying to sell the country.“You will remember that the ruling partyhas been engaged in a discussion that hasbeen brought to us by the media and thosewho do not want to transform.“Theywant to tell us about the Guptas whoare doing this and that in their small cor-ners, but they don’t tell us what they havebeen doing over time and why they don’twant to transform the economy.”He says all this is just a ploy to capture the

state by the free market agents who havebeen making noises that government mustforgo its shareholding in strategic sectors ofthe economy.“We have an economic challenge that isfacing us, but we will be able to overcome

this challenge that is facing us.“Some of the pundits in the 90s predictedthat South Africa would descend into a frac-tious political crisis and that therewas goingto be a blood bath if a black government wasput in power. We are now 22 years along. We

have not seen what they predicted.“I have no doubt that even in this difficulttime we have an opportunity to prove to ourdistractors that the path to inclusive growthadopted by the government and our peopleis a correct one.”

THE OR TamboChamber of Busi-ness has urged thegovernment to en-sure that small andmedium enterprisesget first preferenceand are paid on timeto avoid failure.

It is said the de-layed payment ofSMMEs immenselyaffects their successin business.According to the

secretary of the ORTambo Chamber ofBusiness, AndileNontso, all projectsprocured in theprovince must bene-fit SMMEs.He said they

aimed to produce1 000 SMMEs per fi-nancial year, em-ploying 4 000 peopleper financial year toachieve this.“We want govern-

ment and state-owned enterprisesand municipalitiesto keep statistics toindicate from theirbudget each finan-cial year how manySMMEs benefited.“We want SMMEs

to be prioritised andall projects in the re-gion must haveSMMEs at the cen-tre or as subcontrac-tors,” Nontso said.“We also want all

SMMEs to be paidon time.”

THE community ofMngcibe locality,Lower Lwandile Ad-ministrative Area,which is about 40kmfrom Ngqeleni un-der the NyandeniMunicipality, areliving without wa-ter following a failedpromise by the mu-nicipality to repairthe water line 14months ago.

More than a yearhas passed since thepromise was madebut it is not yet ful-filled and the resi-dents say they aresuffering.They are situated

near the MdumbuRiver not far fromthe sea, but are una-ble to use the river’swater because it iscontaminated withsalty sea water.The communities

who dwell there arevery poor and veryfew people can af-ford to buy rainwa-ter tanks, and ron-davels are not idealfor harvesting rainwater.During the major

drought that affectedthe entire country,these residents werethe most affected.Resident Lu Hem-

sley said they hadtried all in theirpowers to informthe government andthe municipalitybut in vain.“We contacted

President Jacob Zu-ma’s hotline, the De-partment of WaterAffairs and themay-or of the Nyandenimunicipality,” shesaid.“The mayor even

had a meeting withthe community, butthere was noprogress even afterthat meeting.“We are isolated

because there wasno provision for wa-ter about 14 monthsago, andnowwerelypurely on rain wa-ter,” she said.Hemsley said the

same problem hadoccurred in 2009,and water had beencut off until 2012.She called on the

relevant stakehold-ers to help becausepeople’s health wasat risk because ofthe water shortage.She said the three

schools in the areawere also withoutwater.Several attempts

to get comment fromthe OR Tambo Dis-trict Municipality,which is responsi-ble for water in thelocal municipali-ties, were fruitless.No comment couldbe obtained from theNyandeni munici-pality either.

Why ngoku uzakulinganisa abazukwana in-stead for them to be the copycat of their grandpa?I wonder ezi ntwana ziyakwazothini?

Mmm, bafethu you know mara those caps nor-mally worn by the young generation ezaziqalekuba rapper abafana noo50C nabanye Or-kant.

We saw an old man even older than Gesh’s fa-ther who used to lead in KSD lishaye lezi cap.

Bafethu satsho sathi hayi noko le cap “timer”does not fall in your style. It’s worse daai “timer”yaphinda yazithi tight gin.

“OW!! I cannot allow that kuMkhulu kaKara-kara anxibe kanjalo or ndimthengele daai attire.WhatIknowfrommyremotetownofMaxesibeniis that you buy a suit for your father or any trous-

ers which are not stylish but the formal ones.“Timer” anitshintshi kaloku nina kuba senisen-zela thina nabazukulwana benu. Uvile moss.Stop it, people are laughing at you out there.

I wonder if they will make it?Abadpersonalwayswinsthebattleof loveand

we don’t know why. Kuyakwayintoni kuni?We are saying so nje there was our buddy who

had two girlfriends. One was a very soft, humbleperson but the other one was disrespectful intoengazange yake yasiphakela nokutya xa siva-kashele u-friendo. Instead she was always drunk.

Nevertheless a bad person wins every time be-cause da maan after the Easter holidays is goingto pay ilobola kumadakwana wakhe living lo be-sithi u-right. I wonder, is it going to last? Kushoukuthi she is excelling somewhere usisters.

Phoyindabakabanixandizithandelaumanak-wana wam. Perhaps she is going to change and

grow because she is now going to another levelof marriage.

Musa ukuyiqala ungazukuyifezaUyazi abantu bayakumane besithi umgosi

uthetha izinto zomqalakhe mara ezinye wonkeumntu uyazibona ukuba yi-waarheid.

Thisstatementisforyoumajimboskubaniyat-handa ukuqala izinto eningazukuzifeza.

Umntu would play big as if he is Mr Every-thing, but when time goes by he will be exposedof which umntu ebeku-act (wer) kuye uzakubaseqhele that fake treatment.

Sisitsho nje kukhona i-outie esidibene nayo et-shisanyamawhousedtospendtimewithhisnewlover in expensive UTA restaurants. He bor-rowed R10 from us to add to the amount withwhich he wanted to buy ox liver. Iphelile ngokueyo . . . hayi masingabizi magama mara high-lev-el restaurants. Mara sasisazi ukuba it was a fake

treatment kuba besimazi akanalutho. It’s justthat he was in love with a moneyed-grizzaz whowas providing him with everything.

Nowthattheyhaveterminatedtheiraffairaka-nalutho. Mara ke ngoku i-problem kamanganesekujwayelelokhuandqhonge-lunchtimeiscall-ing the guy asking where they are going to eat.

Mind ke it would the guy who will be expectedtopopout.Ufikeumjitawakhonamhlaangenam-ali se-avoida even those calls zika-sisters. Uyabo-na ke inyula esizifaka kuyo majita. Kufana na leomaneukhuphelaumntuwakhoejikinikuthise-kufanele izinto zijike ziqonde abe seyiqhelile landlela yasetywaleni. Wena ngelo xesha ufunaumfazi ohlala ekwi-sober senses.

Ulibele ngoku ukuba nguwe ubumana usithibaby ndifuna sizikhuphele eclubini. Uzaku-khalela bani ke ngoku xa sekuxakile?

We need to get to the street to gather more gos-sip news. Okay sharp.
