The Hawks have arrested two former officials of the Limpopo Provincial Department of Transport for
fraud exceeding R79-million.
The arrest was made by the elite units Anti-Corruption Task Team.The suspects, former Road Agency Limpopo CEO Mrs Mashanoke Alice Mogotlane (44) and former
Senior Manager for Special Projects Mr Ndanganeni Robert Nemavhola (48), are accused of
fraudulently issuing a tender to build a bridge that cross the Olifants (Lepelle) River from Penge to Ga-
Mankele village in the Greater Tubatse Municipality.
The suspects allegedly inflated the initial amount of R46 671 876.59 to R79 518 404.52 without the
necessary approval from the Treasury. The contracted company also supplied an Acrow bridge instead
of a Mabey and Johnston steel bridge. The procurement processes were also allegedly circumvented.
The pair has appeared in the Polokwane Magistrates Court yesterday on charges of fraud. The
case was postponed to 15 August, and they were released on R5 000 bail each.
The Head of the Hawks in Limpopo, Major-General Dibero Molatsane, applauded the team for their
sterling work. She said: Our aim is to rid the province from acts of corruption, and we anticipate more
arrests on this case.
Platinum Gazettereported extensively on the project during the construction phase (this photograph
was published in March 2012 just after completion of the bridge and tarred road to Mankele) as well as
theofficial opening of the bridge on 25 April last year by Limpopo Premier, Cassel Mathale (published
on 27 April 2012).

Burgersfort and Ohrigstad communitiesshould become involved in the fight
Hannah Game Lodge near Ohrigstad suffered ablow recently when one of their already de-hornedrhino fell victim to poachers. The lodge decided tode-horn their rhino after losing some of the animals
to poachers last year.The male was approximately six years old. It issuspected that he was killed over the long weekendin June.Hannah Game Lodge worked closely with Nature
Conservation Authorities to have the rhino on their
property de-horned.
The poachers whokilled this animal washowever not put off by
the fact that they willbe taking only a littlebit of horn that hassince grown back.We are now planning
to treat the horns with poison in the hope that this will deterpoachers from killing our animals, said Mr Eghardt Nel fromHannah Game Lodge.He is appealing to the communities of Ohrigstad and
Burgersfort to become involved in the fight against poaching.If anyone hears anything about rhino horn or information aboutrhino horns being sold, please inform the SAPS and the gamefarms immediately, he requested.

We will donate NoDumpingsignsLast week when it looked if AutoZone, a respected business in Eland Street, Burgersfort,
was dumping old flooring in Morone Street on the gravel part after the Oorbietjie Street T,
Platinum Gazette fowarded the photograph to AutoZone and the municipality.
Three responses were received. The guilty party was not AutoZone, but Creative Shop,
which is currently busy with a revamp at AutoZone. They borrowed the bakkie ...
The first response was receiuved from them, which read:
My installation crew is currently busy with a revamp at the AutoZone Burgersfort store.
As per most our projects, we normally order a skip for all building debris and rubble.
However there has been a delay in getting this to site in a timeous manner. My crew
onsite took the initiative to removal the rubble, with the assistance of my clients vehicle.
Not being familiar with the surroundings, the mistook the area where they dumped the
rubble as a dumping ground. My client is actively involved in the community and do
their utmost to contribute where they can. That being said, I personally would like to
donate, no dumping signage for this area. Please advise as to how I can go about
assisting you and the local metro in cleaning up this area.
Contact me personally to resolve
Best Regards,Brandon Williams
CREATIVE SHOP
Platinum Gazette contacted Mr Williams and passed on the relevant contact numbers at
the municipality.
Response number two was received from AutoZone, which in no uncertain terms
declared:
Thank you for bringing the illegal dumping of refuse to our attention. This is not the
way AutoZone conducts its business and we regret this incident. Whilst our
subcontractor has accepted responsibility for this incident it is not without fault on
AutoZones behalf as our staff allowed the use of our vehicle for this purpose. Our own
internal investigation will be conducted and where appropriate disciplinary action could
result. We have in the interim made arrangements to have this rubble removed and
legally disposed of. We apologise to the residents of Burgersfort for this unfortunate
incident.
Regards,
Kyle E. Young
General Manager - Operations
AutoZone
Response number three came from the Greater Tubatse Municipality who warned
throught its Spokesperson, Mr Kubane Tolo:
The Waste Act 59 states that No person shall drop, spill or deposit any refuse into or
onto public area, therefore, it is clear that such activity is unlawful, unacceptable,
inhuman and prohibited.
Since we have the proof of photos, a letter will be written to Autozone to instruct them
to clean the site within given specific time frame and failure to do so the legal steps will
be taken against them.
As for the reporting of such activities with sufficient evidence, we call upon the
Community members to assist the Municipality and contact Ms Chokoe K (Supervisior
in Waste Management) on (013) 231 1173 and at kchokoe@tubatse.gov.za
Those responsible for the incident reported about on this page, should be
commended for their views and their willinglness to admit that they were wrong
and also their willingness to rectify and contribute to do something that is a sore
eye in any community. The scary version of this article is that the businesses who
took responsibility on this page are not the only guilty ones.
Other businesses and individuals (we regularly see them, only we do not
always have a camera ready) at more than one place in town and next to the river
in Steelpoort dump whatever they want to as if no rules apply and become
agressive when they just see newspaper personnel in the vicinity (even with no
camera in sight) and usually flee the scene in a great cloud of dust.
Landfill sites actually do exist and the municipality in Burgersfort have all the
details available. Please do not dump your waste on other peoples doorstep. It is
unsightly, smells bad, is a threat to the environment and sometimes a downright
threat to everyones health.

broken off after theheavy vehicleclimbed onto the
sidewalk and offagain.
No, I dont need an abortion!The distribution offlyers for everythingfrom cars that are for
sale to abortions isbecoming a bigger andbigger problem inBurgersfort. Many just
paste their pamflets totraffic signs whileothers place their
leaflets under car
wiper-blades and inthe door handles ofvehicles. Most vehicleowners just throw thepapers away on the
spot. This contributesto the waste problemin town.
Heavy vehicles parking on the sidewalks in
town often cause damage to infrastructuresuch as stormwater drainage inlets.
Platinum Gazetteasked the Greater TubatseMunicipality what is the regulations regardingtruck damaging curbstones etc. in town as
shown on the photographs to the left.
Mr KB Tolo, GTM Spokesperson said: Anyperson who park a motor vehicle on a sidewalk is committing an infringement and he/she will be issued with a section 56 noticefor the amount of R1500-00 (One thousandfive hundred rand). Furthermore, the driver
of such vehicle is held responsible if foundor identified as the driver at the time of
committing the offence.
On the photo of the two trucks, the owner oroperator of such vehicle is liable for the fine
if the driver could not be found untilsubmitting a statement declaring the driversname and address.
The necessary steps will be taken against
the trucks that appear on the photos and wewill investigate and follow up with the issuingof section 341 notices to the owner/operator.The Traffic Department is appealing to thepublic to report any wrong doings by callingthis number: 013 231-1000 and traffic
officers will be summoned to that sceneimmediately.

Traffic coming into Burgersfort on the R37 isslowed dramatically at the Themba Garage/Tubatse Crossing Mall cross. It seems that
those programming the traffic lights anticipateda much larger traffic flow coming from the Mall
into the main road. Traffic now waits for a greenlight while virtually no traffic comes from theMalls side. The photograph above was taken
this week as traffic backed up almost to theR555 Steelpoort cross (not peak hour).

Very soon South Africans will be issued with
a convenient and safe card ID when theyapply for an identity document.
The cards will replace the current greenbarcoded book.The cards will be safer as they will beencoded with a micro chip and will be
operated with fingerprint verification and aPIN where necessary. The photograph of thecards owner will be engraved with a laser
onto the card and this will make it virtually
impossible for thieves to simply replace thephotograph before using the cardfraudulently.The Department of Home Affairs will be ableto issue a card ID much faster than a book.
The waiting period will be cut down to a fewdays.New applications will receive the card free of
charge, but if you are applying to replaceyour lost or stolen card, you will have to payR140 as is currently the case when applying
for a replacement ID.It is estimated that it will take governmentabout eight years to replace all the existinggreen ID books with the cards.
The card system is in line with theDepartment of Home Affairs goal to move
towards a paperless environment.
We asked readers what they think about thecoming system.
Mr Harare Malapane said: If they can giveus one that looks the same as our driverslicences it will protect the photograph. People
remove the photos when the ID is stolen. Itwill now be protected.
Mr Sloaney Magale said: Ive heard about
the coming new system. Most peoples IDsget stolen and used by people from othercountries because they want jobs and needan ID to apply. The card system will be betterbecause it will work with a fingerprint and pin.
Nobody will be able to steal it.
Mr Errol Buthelezi said: I think it will be good.
It will reduce the theft of IDs. They must give
the card free to everyone. They are the oneswhove decided to change and we anywaypay tax.
Mr Cedrick Digoro said: Ja, Ive heard about
the card ID. I dont think it will be better. Thecard will get lost time and again and it will betoo expensive to keep on replacing it.
Mr Patrick Mndluli said: Ive heard about iton TV. It will be good and much safer. Aforeigner will not be able to take thephotograph out and put his own there likemany do now. I support it 100%. We must
pay to get it. Government cannot just give toeveryone, they will go bankrupt.
Mnr Eghardt Nel s: Ek het nog nie daarvangehoor nie. Hulle moet dit gratis vir almalmaak. Ek dink die kaart sal beter vir almal
wees.
Ms Promise Maja said: Yes, it will be good.
If it is lost they cannot use it because they
cannot change the photograph. Ill be willingto pay for it because I really need it.
Ms Abigail Magabane and Ms Joana Mnisi said: Yes, it will be better. Then nobody can stealyour ID. It will be safer. It will be like a drivers licence. Abigail: I will be willing to pay for it.Joana: No, I think they must give it out to everyone for free.
Mr Speed Kgwetiane said: The card will be
better. I dont want to pay to have my IDchanged to the card. Let people who losetheirs pay to have it replaced.
Mr Anthony Mashego said: I think this newcard system is a great achievement for our
country after previous complications at theDepartment of Home Affairs. By usingfingerprints nobody will be able to use your
ID except the real owner. I think there is noproblem to pay for the card. We will be surethat everything is secured.
Changing to a new card ID:

Me. Mariana Matthysen s: Nee, ek het nog nie van dit gehoor nie. Ek
is wel positief daaroor. Ek hou van die idee van sekuriteit met
vingerafdrukke. Dit sal meer effektief wees as n ID alleen. R140 isdarem nie baie om te betaal nie. By haar is Dine-Mari.
Mr Mphihleng Ntoampe said: Ive heard about
it. Im glad about it, but with mixed suspiciousfeelings. The first time we got the green ID thegovernment assured us that it will be moreconvenient etc. The criminality that came withit came very often from within the Department
of Home Affairs. If this card will have to go
through human hands at Home Affairs there isagain a risk of criminality. The ID fraud is often
linked with inside jobs at Home Affairs. Theymust let people working there do securityclearance similar to that needed for employeesat the Special Investigative Unit. I think at Home
Affairs this is paramount. Yes, it will be moreconvenient than the book. I won t be happy to
pay to have mine renewed from the book to acard. It will be unfair. People cannot afford it.Everyone has the right to an ID that is safe,secure and protected - it is in the Constitution!
Government must also do a big awarenesscampaign with the planned changes. It mustbe similar in size as to what happens when it iselection time so that they can reach even theeldest people in the most rural areas.
Mr Ally Malapane and Mr Simon Mabuza said: It will be safer andeasier to carry. We are looking forward to get one soon. It will be
better.
Right: Mr EmmanuelModipi said: It isgoing to work better.If I lost mine in thepast it took long to
replace and nowthey wont be able to
do anything with myID if I lose it.
Mr Noah Moagi said: It is very good. Im very
happy about it. It will be very safe. I will havemy ID book replaced with a card very soon.
Mr Martin Mokhele said: Ive heard about it.It will be safer than it is now. Yes, Ill bewilling to pay for an ID card.
Ms Caroline Jaunda said: No, I have notheard about it, but I think it is a good idea.They must let it be free to get the new cardID.
Ms Pretty Malapane said: Ive heard about it.It is a good idea. We can put it inside awallet. It is a safe thing. But I dont want topay for it. They must just give it to us.
Mr Nelson Mabelane said: Its going to begood. It will be an all-in-one card. I wontmind to pay because I know my stuff will be
safe.
Mr Lucky Nkosi said: Ive heard somerumours about the card. It will be safe. I lookforward to getting a new card ID.
Mr Enos Mabaanne said: Safety is tight. It
will also require fingerprints etc. at the bank.They can no longer come and steal yourthings. It will be safer.
Mr Cedrick Malapane said: Yes, it will bevery safe. This thing of removing the ownersphoto will not happen anymore. We will not
share an ID with anyone. It is also portable.This will be an improvement. With him isRory.

Registered Debt Counsellor & Administrator(Reg No: NCRDC 487)
from your DEBTDebt has reached an all time high in South Africa
and more consumers are feeling the pinch of the
tough economy. Easy credit is also catching up on
them.
When you find that your debt is getting out of
hand - that you are unable to make all your
monthly payments and still be able to pay for
monthly expenses such as food, petrol and elec-
tricity it may be a good time to visit a registered
Debt Counsellor.
A Debt Counsellor will help you to draw up a
budget and will negotiate on your behalf with your
creditors. It means that you will have to hand over
all the debt you have and the Debt Counsellor will
re-negotiate installments with the creditors or
through a court. You will pay over a single amount
to the Debt Counsellor who will make sure that
each creditor
receives their share. That is why it is very
important to make use of a registered Debt
Counsellor. If you are not using someone regis-
tered with the National Credit Regulator, they
may charge exhorbitant fees and you are not
sure that the money is going where it i s
intended. The registered Debt Counsellor will
ensure that you still have enough money for
living expenses. The important thing to remem-
ber is that you must have an income to be able
to go under Debt Review. You will also not be
able to make any additional debt while you are
under Debt Review. Going for help may ensure
you keep your house or car, while paying off
the debt you owe. You can become debt free!
Office in Lydenburg
now also open!
