Bulletin 160408

A contractor has been appointed to start work on repairing the massive sinkhole on the R528 George’s Valley road this week. Polokwane based Batlagae Investments, under the lead-ership of Mr Jomo Mashiane, was awarded the contract earlier this week by Roads Agen-cy Limpopo. This followed the collapse of a section of the R528 which was left to corrode until a sinkhole eventually formed beneath its

surface causing it to give way. The section of road was la-

belled the George’s Valley “Deathtrap” aft er it claimed at least 11 vehicles and nearly cost the lives of motorists unfamiliar with the area. The George’s Val-ley Residents Association raised its voice and an inspection team led by Provincial Traffi c Chief, Victor Khumalo, conducted a survey and declared the road a danger zone. A week aft er that visit the road surface collapsed completely. Bulletin spoke to Mashiane at

the scene on Wednesday morn-ing where he laid out a detailed approach to the reparation of the sinkhole. “First of all we will have to clear away the foliage on either side of the sinkhole to allow for a temporary access road to be constructed before we start excavating. The access road will allow resi-dents of the area to move along the route un-inhibited while our work continues. Concern-

ing the sinkhole itself, we will excavate the site and remove the corrugated culvert that is at the heart of this disaster. It will be re-

placed with concrete box culverts on a solid con-crete foundation. Following that, we will begin to reconstruct the road service above it,” he said.

The contract period is set for three months, although Mashiane estimates that they should complete the project a litt le before the deadline. “This is not merely an issue of fi ll-ing a pothole, it is quite a big job and there are many other factors to take into consideration, such as the curing period for the concrete foundation and the mammoth task of clearing the shrubbery to construct the service route.”

At the time of going to print the Roads Agen-cy Limpopo spokesperson, Moses Malun-gane, was not reachable for comment.

The project is scheduled to start on Monday morning 11 April, but Moshiane is eager to begin work before then. “I am hoping to start as early as Friday morning so that we can get the project underway. I believe that the peo-ple of this area have waited long enough al-ready and we want to make this as painless a process as we possibly can.”

GV road to be fi xed

Mr Somo Mashiane is the contractor who was appointed to repair the sinkhole on the George’s Valley road.

‘n Vlammetjie van hoop fl ikker weer in die Letaba-distrik vir die koms van die be-plande Nwamitwa-dam, wat reeds dertig jaar gelede in die vooruitsig gestel is.

Grondeienaars in die gebied waar die dam beoog word, het kennis gekry vir toegang van spanne wat gate moet boor vir grondmonsters om te bepaal watt er klip, sand en grond gebruik kan word as fondament vir die damwal en die res van die ontwikkeling.

Die dam sal sy beslag kry by die samevloeiing van die Nwanezirivier en die Groot Letabarivier, waar dit oor ‘n gebied van 1 400 vierkante km sal strek.

Mnr Louis van Rooyen, belas met watersake in Letaba, het gesê die be-planning is weer op dreef om die damprojek gestalte te gee. Die land-bougemeenskap het reeds in 1983

daarvoor gevra, maar dit het bly sloer. Nou het die departement van water en sanitasie tot einde Oktober grasie om sekere take as deel van die omgewings-impakstudie af te handel, ten einde ekologiese goedkeuring vir die bou van die dam te behou.

Twintig jaar gelede was die geraamde koste van die projek sowat R490 mil-joen, wat infrastruktuur en die verleg-ging van die R529-pad tussen Letsitele en Phalaborwa sou insluit. In 2008 was die geraamde koste R1,5 miljard en die verwagting is dat die syfer in 2017 aan-sienlik hoër sal wees.

Dit is ‘n vyfj aarprojek en met ‘n ber-gingsvermoë van 144 miljoen kubieke meter sal die Nwamitwadam ‘n tamaai invloed hê op die verskaffi ng van wa-ter aan die oostelike deel van Limpopo.

Vlieg praat met die Volk en krap waar dit jeuk... M.I.A.Vlieg

MIA — Missing In Action! Vlieg is weg. Hy’t verdwyn. Sy kameras en lense, ‘n paar reispamfl ette wat toeriste gebruik, sy safari-hoed en sy reistasse is onaangeraak in die kantoor van sy gasheer in die Land van die Silwer Varing. Hy’t niks vir niemand gesê nie, maar hy het vroeër in

die week laat blyk dat sy missie misluk het. Dit is nadat hy gelees en op TV in die verre vreemde gesien het dit blyk ‘n uitgemaakte saak te wees dat Allistair Coetzee die nuwe Springbokafrigter is — en dat Johan Ack-erman nie in die prentjie is nie. Tipies Vlieg, sal hy nou in ‘n hoek gaan sit

en die wêreld bedink, en dan sal hy baie lastig raak. Dit is moontlik dat hy weg is reguit Natal toe, om SA Rugbypresident Hoskin te gaan pla, maar dit is ook moontlik dat hy besig is om op van die All Black-spelers en hul afrigtingspan te spioeneer. Die tyd sal nou maar moet leer.

Reaping the benefi ts of agricultural insurance in South AfricaThe agricultural industry is among South Af-rica’s key sectors; the industry accounts for 6%1 of employment and contributes 2.5%2 directly to the country’s GDP, and as much as 15% to 20%3 indirectly. In a country where almost half the population does not have regular access to food4, the sector is becom-ing increasingly important and the pressure to grow is that much more.

The National Development Plan (NDP) ac-knowledges the potential of the agricultur-al industry, aiming for the sector to create a million jobs by 2030. Despite a number of very real challenges currently impacting ag-riculture in South Africa, insurance can assist in the mitigation of certain risks, as well as help drive exponential growth and sustaina-bility in the following areas:

1. Climate changeThe drastic eff ects of climate change, across

the globe, are being seen more frequently than ever before. Even though eff orts are be-ing made to address the issue, such as the ne-gotiations at the recent United Nations (UN) 2015 COP 21 summit held in France — which aims to limit global warming to less than 2 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial revo-lution times — the reality is that these dis-cussions centre around long-term solutions rather than interim measures.

Closer to home, South Africa itself, has ex-perienced its worst drought in more than two decades, resulting in multi-billion rand losses within the agricultural sector. Some

drought relief is underway with the Minis-ter of Finance’s recent announcement of the re-appropriation of funds to enable the deliv-ery of water tanks, drilling of boreholes and even moving of catt le to state land. While the announcement gives farmers hope, it is also important to note that such measures will need time and resources to implement, and can only provide a certain level of respite as budgets are limited.

Understanding that drought conditions are worsening and so is the vulnerability of farmers and their insurers to such weather related events, appropriate insurance is a crucial element of the agricultural risk man-agement equation. These developments will see a steep increase in the dependence on, and need for eff ective irrigation systems, the construction of dams, more resilient, drought resistant seeds or crop stock and in-vestment in comprehensive insurance cover.

2. Securing livestockThe water shortages in particular, have

meant that farmers have taken to slaugh-tering their livestock before these animals fall prey to the ongoing drought. The con-sequence is a rapidly diminishing herd (im-pacting breeding) and huge fi nancial losses as farmers have to sell the meat at a reduced cost. Livestock insurance is an essential form of cover in mitigating the extent of the loss-es experienced, ensuring that farmers do not face bankruptcy.

3. Embracing diversifi cationAgriculture, like any other industry, needs

to consider diversifi cation and the explora-tion of new markets. This can be seen, for example, in the move from livestock to game farming, or engaging in more downstream farming. However, critical to diversifi cation is the need to look at alternative crops and varieties for diff erent seasons, as well as sys-tems that foster the need for a balanced ap-proach with natural resources management on the one side, and socio-economic and market demand on the other.

There has been a signifi cant increase in the promotion of the ocean economy with Ope-ration Phakisa identifying aquaculture as one of the four critical streams. The South African Department of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries (DAFF) also recently reviewed fi shing rights allocations, licensing and quo-tas, further driving the growth of the sector. There is no doubt that the expansion of this industry is a welcome development in the fi ght to att ain food security, and is a growing opportunity for agricultural insurance providers.

It is essential for the agricultural industry, insurers and government to work together in order to minimise the extent of the fi nancial impact the challenges outlined above present. Water and food security are critical compo-nents of the growth of any economy, making planning, insight and fl exibility key to ensur-ing that the agricultural industry prospers.Sources: 1-4 Statistics South Africa

The investigations into the cause of the hor-ror bus accident which killed ten people and injured more than fifty others on the George’s Valley road last month, are shrouded in mys-tery. This was after a Great North Transport (GNT) passenger bus overturned on its way from Moria to Tzaneen on the R528 through George’s Valley. Among the dead was an 11-month-old baby.

Following the accident, Limpopo Trans-port MEC Mapula Mokaba-Phukwana an-nounced on national radio that she would be suspending the operations of GNT, pending an enquiry into the safety of the company’s vehicles. She expressed concern over the four reported accidents thus far this year involv-ing GNT busses.

However, the spokesperson for the Depart-ment of Transport Public Safety and Liaison, Ms Kagiso Mootane, disputed the statements by the MEC a day later, stating that the ser-vices of GNT could not simply be suspend-ed. According to her, an investigation would be conducted at the head quarters of GNT to examine the wreckage. “That same team would also inspect other buses in the Great North fleet and if any are found to not be roadworthy, the company would be issued with a hefty fine.”

Almost a month later and no inspection was launched. “We have not started on the inspection because we were busy with the Easter holidays. We are awaiting word from law enforcement and Public Works as to

when we can go ahead and start the investi-gations,” Mootane said. Bulletin contacted GNT and spoke to their

media liaison officer, Mr Patrick Monkoe. “The findings of the investigations showed that the bus at the time of the accident was road-worthy. At the time of the unfortunate incident, media from across the province reported on the state of the George’s Valley road and raised concern over the safety of this stretch of road, and we believe that it may have played a part in the tragedy.”

GNT issued a statement shortly after the ac-cident, declaring that their buses are serviced by the suppliers — MAN and Scania — and are inspected rigorously to ensure that the vehicles meet the requirements of the road

safety regulations. “No buses are allowed to leave the compound if even a brake light is found to be faulty. It is simply not up for debate and it is not the way in which Great North conducts its business. We are very much involved in the community and there-fore the safety of all our passengers is our highest priority,” Mokoe said.

When asked about the inspections sched-uled to take place at their depot in Polok-wane, Mokoe said that RAL had in fact con-ducted their inspection and were to release a report on their findings.

At the time of going to print the offices of RAL could not be reached for comment.

Confusion over Great North investigation

The Mayor of the Greater Letaba Mu-nicipality, Mr God-frey City Modjadji, warned members of the public looking for tenders to be on the alert, after he learnt with shock and dismay that there is a group of people going around soliciting money from people using his name.

Spokesperson for the GLM, Ms Lovers Maenetje, said the con-artists are going

around promising people tenders in re-turn of a bribe in the name of the Mayor.

“Anyone who is ap-proached by these thugs is advised to immediately call the police. The Mayor has absolutely nothing to do with this as it is a scam,” Maenetje said.

Maenetje concluded by saying: “We want to ensure the commu-nity that jobs and ten-

ders are not for sale.” — Phidelia Rikhotso

The price of fresh milk and dairy products is expected to rise sharply in the coming weeks, as dairy farm-ers are facing production shortages.

Some dairy processors are already paying commercial farmers 60c more per litre on average for milk, to ensure consistent supply in win-ter. Poor pasture conditions due to the drought and the higher grain prices have squeezed margins at farm level.

The price is expected to further increase in May and will hike op-erating costs for the entire milk value chain, leaving retailers with no choice but to increase the price of milk and dairy products.“Most

dairy farmers are still recovering from the impact of the drought and will not be able to produce enough milk in the short term,” says Mr Paul Makube, senior agricultural economist at FNB.

While South Africa does source certain dairy products from other countries, this did not help to alle-viate increasing prices as the weaker rand made imports more expensive, despite lower international prices.

He also said the electricity tariff in-crease coming into effect this month will severely drive up input costs for farmers and milk processors, as they heavily rely on equipment that consumes a lot of energy.

Residents in Nkowankowa ignore no dump-ing signs in the town and dump their trash in exactly those spots. This creates a serious health hazard and is causing eyesores for law-abiding residents.

Trash is seen piling up in a spot with two No Dumping signs in Nkowankowa Section A, a mere 100 meters from the Greater Tza-neen Municipality’s depot.

Another area with prominent signs in front

of the Eskom Risima sub-station is also abused as a refuse dumping area and it looks rather bad.

A Nkowankowa resident, Ms Tsakani Mashele, said the il-legal dumping areas begin when a single

individual take a de-cision to dump his or her trash there. It att racts people with the same mind-set to do so while trash collection is availa-ble in all the areas.

“People put a lot of eff ort into dumping. The challenge is that we don’t know what kind of poison they might dump and our kids play close

to such areas. The GTM fails to att end to the problem,” she said.

Another resident who wanted to remain anonymous said the area hasn’t been cleaned up for some time. People dump their refuse bags at the no dumping signs, because the refuse removers are not always reliable.

Spokesperson for the Greater Tzaneen Mu-nicipality, Mr Neville Ndlala, said: “The trash could not be collected due to a recent protest in the area which lasted two to three weeks. The challenge has been resolved now and waste collection resumed on Monday morning”.

Ms Therese Oliff (49) from Haen-ertsburg died on Tuesday. No foul play is suspected. She leaves her son, Tristan, who matric-ulated at SLC and now lives in Otta-wa, Canada. The village police were unable to confi rm any details, despite several calls. Her relatives are said to be fl ying out from Kenya and Canada.

Funeral arrange-ments have not yet been announced.

No dumping! Really?

No dumping area close to the GTM depot

Another no dumping sign in front of the Eskom sub-station.

Mnr Ben van Niekerk van Phalaborwa het trofeë vir sportpresta-sies aan die Hoërskool Ben Vorster geskenk. Sy slagspreke in die lewe is: “Enspiring the next generation”. Die trofeë sal tydens prys-uitdelings later vanjaar oorhandig word.

People who are interested in what church is and what it should be are aff orded the op-portunity to enroll for a mod-ule in Ecclesiology (study of the church). In the course of about thirteen sessions the following sub-jects will be discussed: Why the church is important, names and Scriptural metaphors of the church, att ributes of the church from the ancient fathers, traits of a healthy church, church as mis-sional and nurturing community, worship and fellowship, church discipline, leadership and church government, means of grace, baptisms, the Lord’s supper and the Holy Spirit and the church.

Dr Jack Whytock from Mukha-nyo is the lecturer. His lectures will be followed on DVD while a well trained Mukhanyo Distance facilitator will assist the stu-dents. All students who att end the module will receive a certifi -cate of att endance.

The study forms part of Mukh-anyo Distance’s Diploma course in Theology, but students are invited to enroll for this single module. Mukhanyo Distance enables students to receive rel-evant, high quality, holistic,

aff ordable in-service distance training in theology. It pro-vides biblically based training opportunities and facilities to church leaders for church and community development in Af-rica. The course also develops church leadership and adminis-trative skills in order to inspire kingdom vision and to support the growth and development of churches. An important aspect is to equip leaders, offi ce bearers and members of churches to cor-rectly understand and apply the Bible in their own environment.

Mukhanyo Distance invites everybody who is interested to att end the fi rst lecture free of charge at 14:00 on Friday, 15 April 2016. The venue is in Tza-neen at the Reformed Church Laeveld, Claude Wheatley Street (opposite HiQ).

The cost involved is R200 per module. A number of bursaries is also available which will en-able students to study for R100 per module. This amount in-cludes all study material. Stu-dents follow by DVD the same classes full time Mukhanyo stu-dents att end.

KrisisbestuurMet ‘n landspresident wat van die een krisis na die volgende steier, is dit seker nie vreemd dat krisisbestuur in ons land aan die orde van die dag is nie.

In ons omgewing ervaar ons dit ook gereeld. Eers nadat Tzaneen vir ‘n naweek sonder krag was, het die plaas-like owerheid opgetree en gedoen wat toe lankal gedoen moes gewees het.

Eers toe die strate in Tzaneen so verval het dat dit skade aan voertuie veroorsaak het, is met lapwerk (van ‘n swak gehalte) begin. Eers toe die pad in Georges Valley deur ‘n sinkgat ingesluk is, kon die geld en kundigheid om die probleem ordent-lik reg te stel, ewe skielik gevind word.

Die lys is lank. Gelukkig is ‘n munisi-pale verkiesing op hande en word aller-hande werk nou gedoen; nie behoorlik nie, maar darem.

Die tuin voor die GTM se hoofgebou geniet nou skielik aandag. Daar word skielik bome geplant (nugter weet waar-vandaan dit kom, want die munisipale kwekery is ‘n puinhoop).

Gelukkig aanvaar kiesers nie meer die beloft es van politici nie, want dit is duidelik goedkoop propaganda.

Nuwe eise gaan toeneem en politici, veral die amateurs op plaaslike ower-heidsvlak, sal hul sokkies moet optrek om voor te bly en met behoorlike be-planning uit die kringloop van krisis-bestuur te kom.

Die tyd sal leer of dit moontlik is.

Skoenlappers‘n Man was bedlêend weens ‘n ongeneeslike siekte. Op ‘n dag het hy ‘n papie op sy venster-bank opgemerk. Hy het sy dae omgebring deur te kyk hoe die papie ontwikkel.

Op ‘n dag het die man gesien hoe daar ‘n gaatjie in die kokon se bokant kom, en hoe ‘n skoenlapper wor-stel om uit te kom. Dit was egter ‘n lang, harde stryd.

Soos die tyd verbygegaan het, het die worstelende insek geen vordering getoon nie. Uiteindelik het die siek man gedink dat die Skepper ‘n fout gemaak het. Die man het ‘n skêr geneem en die opening van die kokon groter gemaak.

Die skoenlapper het uitgekruip, maar dit was al wat dit ooit kon gedoen het: kruip! Die man het nooit besef dat die stryd van die skoenlapper om uit die kokon te kom, bedoel was om kleurryke, lewegewende sappe na die vlerke toe te stuur en dit sterk te maak nie.

As gevolg van die man se hulp kon dit nie gebeur nie. Die insek was gedoem om sy kort lewe deur te bring deur in die stof rond te kruip, terwyl dit bedoel was om met reënboogvlerke in pragtige tuine rond te fl adder.

Die Skepper maak nooit ‘n fout nie. Ons mag so dink, maar in elke bietjie swaarkry en lyding is Hy besig om lewe-gewende geestelike sappe na ons siele te stuur, sodat ons geestelik sterk kan word en in die geloof kan groei.

Die feit is dat jy op Hom kan vertrou, selfs wanneer dit vir jou lyk asof die stryd hard, meedoënloos en sinloos is. Die uiteinde van hierdie stryd en vertroue is dat ons soos pragtige skoenlappers in sy tuin sal fl adder.

“Ons verheug ons ook in die swaarkry, want ons weet: swaarkry kweek volharding, en volharding kweek egtheid van geloof, en egtheid van geloof kweek hoop en ons hoop sal nie tevergeefs wees nie.” (Romeine 5:3 – 4).

This week’s Local Hero is Ms Wendy Coleman, who unselfi shly help mothers and their babies. The full story of this remarkable lady is elsewhere on this page.

Vandag kyk ons na die voorblad van die Bulletin van 9 April 2004. Die hoof-nuus het gehandel oor ‘n krisis in Tzaneen se landdroshof, waar landdros Har-riet Mbalati tydens verhore aan die slaap geraak het, haar tydig en ontydig aan verhore onttrek het en selfs sonder haar toga op die bank verskyn het. Ander nuus was van ‘n gewilde en suksesvolle atleet van die Tzaneen Marathonklub, Hendrick Setuke, wat in ‘n motorongeluk dood is. Nog voorbladnuus het ge-meld dat Eskom se administrasie in die streek besig was om in duie te stort, en dat veral boerderye erg hierdeur ontwrig is. Die swembadfoto is by Die Eiland

Life-time of service to mankind recognised“Breast-feeding is supposed to be a natural instinct but oft en mothers don’t know how to latch their babies,” says nursing sister Ms Wendy Coleman (78).

Coleman helps mothers with their newborns at MediClinic Tzaneen. She shows up to seventy mothers a month how to breast-feed and how to cope with problems. “Mothers are inclined to grab the bott le too soon and formula is not good for a baby.”

Before retiring, Coleman went on a World Health Organisation (WHO) informative breast-feeding course at Letaba Hospital.

At two months, babies suddenly get a growth spurt and need a lot of milk. Galactagogues is a substance that promotes lactation and Coleman recommends Jungle Juice to increase milk supply. Mix three litres water with one litre apple juice, ten drops rescue remedy and one sachet blackcurrant rehydrate. Drink a glass aft er every feed.

Fluids increase the milk supply but stress is the worst enemy of breast feeding, hence the rescue remedy. Coleman also recommends music whilst breastfeeding and says babies

are partial to the soothing notes of Mozart.

Coleman, née Bisset, grew up in Agatha and decided to become a nurse at the age of eight. As soon as she fi nished school she went on her own to Johannesburg to start her training at the then Johannesburg General Hospital. Aft erwards she did her year’s midwifery at the Queen Victoria Maternity Hospital in Johannesburg.

She nursed the country’s fi rst pacemaker patients under the fi rst cardio thoracic surgeons, at the Florence Nightingale Hospital in Hillbrow. She also nursed the fi rst patients to get artifi cial steel valves in South Africa and learnt how to give cardiac massage.

Coleman became a full-time mother to her two children aft er she married. In 1982 the Colemans moved to the Agatha family farm. Coleman’s mother had Alzheimer’s and help was needed on the farm. Coleman is fearful of following in her mother’s medical footsteps, so she consumes extra virgin coconut oil daily,

as it’s believed to ward off Alzheimer’s. Sr Joan Meredith from the Department

of Health appointed Coleman to take care of the aged from Gravelott e to Mooketsi from 1982 to 1994. As there was no medical service in Haenertsburg she was instructed to investigate the need.

This was the start of the Haenertsburg clinic every two weeks for the aged in the old court house. She also did home visits and her oldest patient was Ms Lily Lake (91). It was amongst the elderly that she came face to face with cancer.

She went on a short public health course and started a mobile clinic in 1994. It involved family planning, immunisation of babies, examination, diagnosis and treatment from Politsi to Deerpark. Coleman retired in 2003, sold the farm, and lived near the Coach House Hotel, where she ran a clinic for the staff . She stays fi t and strong with the body of someone half her age. She concentrates on exercises for mobility and strength four times a week, and this includes press ups and pushups.

Môre, ’agbare!Lekker geslaap?

Popular athlete diesLeading runner for the TzaneenMarathon Club and multi-medalist Hendrick Setuke fromGaKgapane died on Friday,when the vehicle he was drivingin with friends overturned at Ga-Mothiba. Hendrick died instant-ly, but the other passengers onlysustained light injuries. Setukelast year represented SA in amarathon in Ireland and earlierthis year he took part in an ath-letics meeting in France. He hasalso been named the best ath-lete in the province. He speciali-sed in the 5 000 meters.* The Letaba Bulletin ran a re-port on Hendrick only last week,highlighting his achievements.

Eskom se administrasie in die Laeveldis besig om in duie te stort. Boere indie Harmonieblok en Trichardtsdal,wat hul elektrisiteit direk van Eskomkoop, is moedeloos met die kragvoor-siener se klaarblyklike onvermoë omeenvoudige papierwerk op datum tekry, en intern tussen departemente tekommunikeer.

In dieselfde asem word Eskom se teg-niese dienslewering deur boere hoogaangeskryf. In dié verband het mnrBulla Schönken van Eskom onlangs ‘ntoekenning van die Ofcolaco/Tri-chardtsdal Boerevereniging ontvang,vir uitnemende diens. Sy kollega in dié

Die rook van verontwaardiging begin draaiin regskringe in Tzaneen, oor ‘n landdros seeskapades op die bank. Van klagtes by dielanddrostekommissie en by die hooflanddrosvan Tzaneen oor die onaanvaarbare gedragvan landdros Harriet Mbalati, het sover nognie veel gekom nie.

Intussen is regslui vies vir die landdros sestreke wat hul kliënte baie geld kos en onno-dige ontwrigting in dagboekbeplanning ver-oorsaak.

Mbalati word daarvan beskuldiging dat syonder meer tydens ‘n verhoor aan die slaapgeraak het, dat sy haar ontydig aan ‘n verhooronttrek het en dat sy die regbank en die sy-balie oneer aandoen deur sonder ‘n toga opdie bank te verskyn.

Die senior vennoot van Joubert & May Pro-kureurs in Tzaneen, mnr Ras Brits, sê hullehet al by twee geleenthede skriftelik by diehooflanddros van Tzaneen, mnr G J Norval,oor Mbalati se gedrag gekla.

Eskom se liggies blaasgebied, mnr André Botes, doen selfook vier mense se werk, sê boere watvir jare ontevrede was met daagliksekragonderbrekings.

“Vandat hulle in ons gebied beginwerk het, word ons bederf met uit-stekende diens, ongeag die weersom-standighede of tyd van die nag” sêmnr Piet van Graan, ‘n vooraan-staande saaiboer van Trichardtsdal.

Maar administratief gaan dit be-roerd. Een boer ontvang al drie jaarlank rekenings vir drie kragpunte wathy van sy naam laat skrap het, nadat‘n huurkontrak verstryk het. Hy hetal ‘n tas vol korrespondensie waarmee

hy tevergeefs sukkel om die saak regte stel. Hy is selfs al aan Eskom se regs-invorderaars oorhandig, oor uitstaan-de skuld op een van die punte.

Uit die bloute het hy onlangs vir ‘nander punt ‘n rekening ontvang virR54 000, en by navraag is dit gewysigna R12 000. Dit is egter nie sy rekeningnie, en hy moet deurgaans keer dat syverbruik nie vanweë ‘n ander departe-ment se swak administrasie onregma-tig opgeskort word nie.

Nog ‘n boer het in die teenwoordig-heid van Eskom-amptenare telefoniesmet Eskom se kantoor in Phalaborwa

Die eerste klagte was in Maart, toe ‘n voorvalop 26 Februarie onder Norval se aandag ge-bring is. Op dié dag het prokureurs, klaers,verweerders en getuies van die oggend tot ‘n“hele ruk” na twee uur vir Mbalati gewag.Terwyl ‘n prokureur besig was met die kruis-ondervraging van ‘n getuie, het Mbalati aandie slaap geraak met haar kop op haar arms.

Eers nadat ‘n hofbeampte “aangekondig”het dat Mbalati slaap, het een van die proku-reurs haar met ‘n harde stem wakker gemaak.Hy het haar toe meegedeel dat sy aan die slaapgeraak het. Haar antwoord was dat die band-speler aan was en dat dit (die slapery) nie ‘nprobleem is nie.

Toe die prokureur die volgende getuie wouroep, het Mbalati gesê sy is te moeg en beslisdat die saak uitgestel moet word. Die uitstelvan die saak bring verkwiste koste nou mak-lik op minstens R20 000 te staan, sê Brits.

Maak my soos KoosYvonne du Toit van Tzaneen skryf

per e-pos: Lanklaas, baie lanklaas het iets my aangegryp soos die berig Metal man saves a life op die

voorblad van verlede week se Bulle-tin.

Almal van ons wat hier kinders groot ge-maak en oud geword het, ken vir Koos van sien langs die pad op pad skrootwerf toe .

Ek het nog al die jare groot bewondering

vir die jong man gehad, wat onder sulke moeilike onstandighede sy daaglikse werk getrou doen.

Na die berig wil ek vir hom sê: Koos, as jy my seun was, sou ek baie trots op jou gewees het.

Jy het met hierdie daad aan ‘ n me-demens my vrae oor myself laat vra, soos: Wat sou ek gedoen het? Ek moet in skaamte erken dat ek ‘n toets ge-dop het. Op my knieë vra ek dan ne-derig: Maak my soos Koos.

Dit is onder sulke omstandighede dat iemand se ware karakter na vore kom. Koos, ek hoop dat jou verhaal met trots deel van Tzaneen se geskiedenis sal word.• Baie, baie mense stem saam met u — Redakteur

‘n Werktuigkundige van Trophy Motors in Modjadjiskloof het skade aan albei sy wys-vingers opgedoen, toe hy in die werkswin-kel deur ‘n suidelike sypikslang (stilett o) aangeval is. Litt e van albei vingers moes afgesit word.

Mnr Pieter van der Westhuizen is na weke terug by die werk, maar kan nog nie sy hande gebruik nie. Hy is onder be-handeling van ‘n arbeidsterapeut om die geskende vingers reg te kry vir handewerk. “Dis hoe ek my brood verdien.”

Van der Westhuizen sê op 2 Maart het die slang van nagenoeg 70 cm hom in die werkswinkel tuisgemaak. Hy het ‘n lang skroewedraaier gegryp om die kalant by die deur uit te help, maar in die proses is hy drie keer aan die vingers gepik — een was droog, maar die ander twee het genoeg gif vrygestel dat hy binne drie minute bewusteloos neer-gesak het. Volgens hom was die slang baie aggressief.

Hy is inderhaas na die Mediclinic Tza-neen gebring, waar hy vir ‘n week teen die slangbyte behandel is. Na sy ontslag moes hy weer vir ‘n week vir opvolgbehandeling terug keer.

‘n Slangkenner is hy nie, sê Van der West-huizen, maar hy het al voorheen slange ge-vang of vankant gemaak. Hy waarsku egter almal, veral kinders, om nie met slange rond te foeter nie.

“Daardie byt-gevoel is nog vars in my ge-heue en ek het lewenslange skade aan my hande opgedoen. Wanneer ‘n slang gewaar word, moet ‘n slanghanteerder geroep word om dit te verwyder, al is dit nie-gift ig.”

Eintlik was hy gelukkig, sê Van der West-

huizen. In die hospitaal het hy slagoff ers ont-moet wat baie erger daaraan toe was. Hulle is toevallig ook deur sypikslange gepik.

‘n Slanghanteerder van Tzaneen, mnr Raymond Rees, het reeds ‘n maand gelede teen slange in die gebied gewaarsku. Volgens hom het reën na maande se droogte bygedra dat slange uit hul skuilplekke kom

en vryelik rondbeweeg, op soek na kos. Alle slange moet as gevaarlik beskou word, maar dis nie nodig om hulle dood te maak nie. Hy

is ‘n slangkenner en sal vrywillig help om die gevaar af te weer. Hy is bereikbaar by 073 166 3651.

Die alledaagse gebruik van posseëls is be-sig om ‘n uitsondering te word, gemeet aan ‘n kitsopname wat die Bulletin dié week in Tzaneen se Lifestyle Sentrum gehou het.

Hulle is begroet met uitsprake soos “wat-ter soort besigheid is julle wat nog seëls ge-bruik?” of “kan nie onthou wanneer laas ek ‘n posseël gelek het nie”.

Weens die lywigheid en omvang van se-kere dokumente is dit steeds vir baie on-dernemings nie moontlik om dit per sosiale

media en e-pos te versend nie. Koerante en tydskrift e is voorbeelde hiervan.

Die Poskantoor verskaf op die oomblik nie los posseëls nie, maar verkoop dit in ‘n duur boekievorm waarin twaalf seëls teen R43,20 beskikbaar is. Die boekie se tema is die Rivo-nia-hoogverraadverhoor, waarin onder an-dere wyle president Nelson Mandela skuldig bevind is. Elke seël is gekoppel aan een van die verhoordes in dié geskiedkundige saak. Die boekies is tans beperk tot net twee per klant.

In ons kitsopname sê me Sophie Mashaba Tsungu die seëls in boekievorm is ‘n goeie manier om die betekenis daarvan in ons land se geskiedenis aan die publiek bekend te stel, hoewel die gebruik daarvan deesdae beperk is. Mnr Ricardo Terblanche sê hy was in sy skooljare ‘n seëlversamelaar wat toe so ‘n boekie met graagte sou opraap, maar vandag is dit nie meer ter sprake nie.

Mee Nicola Strydom en Janet Eagar is in die eiendomsbedryf en sê die dae van

seëls plak is lankal verby. Die Poskantoor se boekie-plan is egter “oulik” en het ver-samelaarswaarde.

Mnr Peter Sebekwane hou van die boek-ie. Hy meen egter om R43,20 te betaal as ‘n mens net een seël nodig het, is uitspatt ig.

Mnr Flippie Jacobs sê die elektroniese media doen deesdae die werk. Tog is daar nog baie mense in platt elandse gebiede wat daarvan hou om ‘n brief te skryf, ‘n seël nat te lek en daarop te plak.

Langs die Oever groei steeds

Vermaak

vir die hele

gesin!

‘n Groter, lekkerder, geselliger, interessanter boerefees op die plaas Montrose (Letsitele) van mnr Kallie Erasmus wag vandag en more om ‘n rekord aantal besoekers te verwelkom. Die verwagting is dat die bywoning van ‘n paar honderd boere vyf jaar gelede vanjaar

‘n paar duisend sal wees.Die Langs die Oever-boerefees is die

eerste keer in 2011 gehou en dit het se-dertdien gegroei om vanjaar ‘n nuwe

hoogtepunt te bereik, met ‘n ver-stommende meer as ‘n honderd uit-stallers wat hul produkte en dienste aan die boere bekend sal stel.

Die sosiale karakter van die fees word behou en daar sal weer oorge-noeg te ete en te drinke wees. Va-

op en die dag sal na verwagting weer ‘n ti-piese gesinsdag-karakter hê. Daar is genoeg om vroue se belangstelling te geniet en selfs vir die kinders word ook ruim voorsiening gemaak.

Die groot tent sal weer ‘n gesellige by-eenkomsplek wees, waar mense om iets te ete en te drinke kan kuier; ou vriende kan mekaar sal geselskap geniet en nuwe vriendskappe kan hier gesmee word.

Mense wat dit nie vandag kan maak om saam op Montrose te gaan kuier en al die interessante uitstallings — en veral die demonstrasies — te besigtig nie, vanweë werksverpligtings, kan gerus more ‘n lek-ker wegbreekdag op die oewer van die Le-tabarivier gaan geniet.

TzaneenGholfdag27 Mei

Wolkberg Akademie, ‘n privaat skool gedryf deur die ouers wat steun op skoolgeld en geldinsamelingsprojekte, organiseer ‘n gholfdag vir 27 Mei. Die skool se leerlingtal het die afgelope jaar met 23 gestyg en dit gaan binnekort nodig wees om nog klaskamers te bou. Borge word tans

ook genooi om aan die gholfdag deel te neem. Die formaat vir die dag gaan “Betterball – Scramble drive” wees. Die maksimum voorgee is 18 , behalwe as jou amptelike voorgee hoër is. Inskrywings en navrae: Fanus Jacobs by 072 100 5501.

‘n Vrou van Modjadjiskloof is keelvol vir skelmstreke, nadat ‘n beweerde bedrog-spul met selfoonkontrakte haar bankrek-ening leeggemelk het.

Me Retha Meyer sukkel sedert die begin van Maart om haar sake met die selfoon-verskaff er MTN reggestel te kry, nadat kontrakte vir twee nuwe selfone onreg-matig op haar rekening verskyn het. ‘n Onverwagte aft rekking van meer as R5 000 uit haar bankrekening het veroor-saak dat bestaande debietorders vir haar

maandelikse verpligtings aan haar terug-gestuur is.

Sy het MTN se bedryfstak in die Life-style Sentrum in Tzaneen verskeie kere genader en ook twee keer ‘n beëdigde verklaring oor die ongerymdheid by die Polisie afgelê, om die saak opgeklaar te kry. Uit desperaatheid het sy selfs die hulp van mnr Dave Prott er van Crisis Centre in Modjadjiskloof ingeroep. Die twee het saam voor die selfoonwinkel be-toog om die nodige aandag te kry.

‘n Woordvoerder van Cosmonet MTN in Tzaneen het dié week gesê die kwessie is uiteindelik opgeklaar, nadat dit deur hul hoofk antoor ondersoek is. Meyer kry haar geld terug, terwyl die kontrakte vir selfone wat op haar rekening verskyn het, afsonderlik deur MTN se bedrog-af-deling ondersoek word. Die selfone is glo in Durban gekoop.

Volgens die MTN-woordvoerder word streng maatreëls gevolg met die uit-reiking van selfoonkontrakte, maar ie-wers skuil daar altyd ‘n skelm met ‘n nuwe slenter. Dit gebeur nie dikwels nie en word so vinnig moontlik deur die maatskappy ondersoek. Dit is ongeluk-kig dat die Meyer-geval langer as twee weke geneem het om uitgeklaar te word, het hy gesê.

Prott er is egter steeds ongelukkig met die diens wat hy van die selfoonverskaf-

fer gekry het. Volgens hom het hy sewe weke gelede ‘n nuwe simkaart by hulle gekoop. Hy sê “ondanks verskeie pogings om die diens uitgestryk te kry, werk die simkaart steeds nie na behore nie”.• Op die foto hiernaas betoog me Retha Meyer en mnr Dave Prott er voor die MTN-winkel in die Tzaneen Life Style Centre.

Vier atlete van die Hoërskool Ben Vors-ter het in die skoolva-kansie aan die ASA-SA kampioenskappe deelgeneem. Dit was ‘n wonderlike erva-ring vir die atlete en die Vossies is trots op hulle. Die Vossie-at-lete het soos volg ge-presteer: Jolandi van der Merwe — 11de in spiesgooi (34,03m); Lara Schutte — sil-wer medalje in die 400 m (56,52 sek); Car-men Botha — 8ste in die 100 m-hekkies (15,72 sek) en 5de in die 400 m-hekkies

(63,61 sek). Gustav Prinsloo was 12de in spiesgooi (54,68 m). Hier is Lara, Gustav, Carmen en Jolandi.


Boys Hockey – 1st Team: Stanford 1st team boys played in the Treverton Festival over the holidays. Aft er a slow start, the boys picked up steam and played some entertaining hock-ey matches. The match of the fes-tival was against the host school, and the expectation ran high for this match.

SLC put Treverton under pres-sure from the start and scored two early goals. Treverton came back with one of their own. Stanford then put the match out of their reach, scoring another two goals.

SLC Netball: Stanford’s netball girls had an extremely

successful trip to Treverton. On paper, the fi rst day appeared to be the toughest. Last year SLC lost narrowly to Amanzimtoti and this was SLC’s fi rst match for 2016. The girls walked onto the court with confi dence and determination. This proved to be the recipe for success, as aft er 40 minutes the match ended 29-16 to Stanford.

The following match was also tough, against Kloof! Again the girls fought hard and never let their heads drop, with a nail-bit-ing end, fi nishing one goal ahead (20-19). The next day started off slow and the girls lost against De la Salle in the last minute by one goal… despite this loss, the

girls stayed positive and sim-ply looked forward to their next match where they dominated the court against The Wykeham Collegiate. ending with a phe-nomenal score of 35-10.

The third day was a ‘mixed bag’ with fatigue starting to set in. Un-fortunately the girls lost against Jabula in the last fi ve minutes by 4 goals, however, some fantastic netball was played by both sides. That aft ernoon, the rain started to come down and the match against Dainfern was cancelled.

However, SLC were able to organise a friendly against The Wykeham Collegiate, where,

once again, the girls had a suc-cessful game. The festival ended with Stanford playing the hosts, Treverton. The girls came out with determination to end on a high and this they did, fi nishing with a score of 24-8 to Stanford.

Hockey Girls: The 1st team Hockey girls played nine matches. They won six, drew one and lost two games. The SLC girls had a slow start but aft er the fi rst day the girls really did well and managed to play a passing hockey game.

• The photos were taken by a one of the school’s parents, namely GKT SportPics.

SLC’s boys and girls performed well at Treverton

Swimming trophies from the 1970’s onwards were dumped on the pave-ment when reconstruction began at the Tzaneen public swimming pool in Crown Street more than a year ago. The site foreman, Mr Jan Ludick, found them. Realizing their historic value he handed them in to the Bulle-tin newspaper across the road.An article about the recovery of these tarnished and battered silver trophies was published in the newspaper. Re-action came from Unicorn Preparato-ry School, who said they would like to care for the trophies. After consul-tations with other interested parties, the Bulletin decided to hand the tro-phies to the school, to be preserved for generations to come. The school’s headmaster, Mr Ian Houston, said that Kabod Manufac-turing Jewelers would now restore

the trophies and they would then be suitably displayed at the school.An offi cial handing over ceremony, with pupils present, was held in the Williams Hall on Monday. Houston said that the trophies hold particular historic signifi cance for the school as many of the swimmers went to Unicorn all those years ago. Steph-anie Baker, ex-Unicorn, whose sons are both attending the school, is just one of the many award winning swimmers whose name appears on one of the trophies (under her maid-en name). Unfortunately the boys’ trophy is missing. Should anyone be in pos-session of this trophy please hand it in at Unicorn reception. It is the right thing to do.

Kinders van oor die wêreld neem deel en word gekies om aan die SHINE-geleentheid deel te neem. Hanco het vroeër vanjaar ‘n konsert

Historic trophies fi nd a new home

Timothy and Travis Baker are seen here with one of the trophies donated to the school. This particular trophy was awarded to their mother, Stephanie, back in the early 1980’s for her achievements in the swimming pool.


ŉ Boorling van Mosselbaai en een van So-merset-Wes is twee van vyf Suid-Afrikaners wat dié naweek om een van die blinkste ti-tels in sport meeding.

Louis Oosthuizen en Trevor Immelman speel op Augusta in die Amerikaanse Meesters, een van die vier vernaamste gholftoernooie ter wêreld. Branden Grace en Charl Swartzel, wat in Gauteng gebore is, word ook as sterk aanspraakmakers beskou.

Die toernooi, met ŉ prysgeld van tien mil-joen Amerikaanse dollar (die wenner kry $1.8 miljoen) word regstreeks op televisie uitgesaai. Die veteraan Ernie Els sal ouder gewoonte een van die toeskouers se gun-stelinge wees.

Naas die gholf, wat baie mense se slaap-patroon erg gaan ontwrig, waarborg die regstreekse uitsending van Superrugby en veral die sewesrugby in Hongkong ŉ opwin-dende naweek vir sportliefhebbers.

Hier staan sy (links) op die podium saam met die wenner en die meisie wat derde geëindig het.

Die menings, uitsprake, standpunte, verwysings, komplimente, beledigings, humor, ensovoorts, van Oubal is nie noodwendig dié van die Bulletin of die eienaar en personeel van die koerant nie!

Is Oubal nou die afgelope week of twee oorval met navrae oor hoekom hy nog niks gesê het oor die T20 WB nie. Die laaste oproep was verlede Sondagaand van ou Nostrofreda-mus Pohl van Vishoek, kort nadat Carlos Brathwaite sy vier-de ses geslaan het.

‘Tja, nie net wil Nostrofred weet hoekom Oubal niks sê nie, hy wil ook sommer weet wat fout is met ons Proteas, dat ons weereens in ‘n belangrike krieketkompetisie ge- “tjouk” het. Sug.

Oubal dink ons land ly so kollektief aan aandagafl eibaar-heid dat die hele bevolking op daai middel moet wees wat die skooljuff rouens die dokters vra om voor te skryf vir die woelige kinders wat nie kan stilsit in die klas nie, maar hy sal weer ‘n keer uitspel wat hy voorheen al gesê het: Hoe korter die weergawe van krieket, hoe ‘n groter dobbelspel is dit.

Om dus te verwag dat Oubal hieroor moet skryf (wat hy nou maar teen wil en dank doen), is ook om van hom te ver-wag om rubrieke te skryf oor tolgooi, albasters, dambord, bok-bok, kleilatgooi, kennetjie en tiddlywinks, hoewel Ou-bal dink daar is dalk meer meriete in kleilat en kennetjie as iets wat ‘n biljoen subkontinenters na hulle asems laat snak.

Hoe dit ook al sy, Oubal is heeltemal bereid om te kyk na die tweede deel van Nostrofred se vraag (as hy tot hiertoe

aandag gegee het). Te midde van die grootskaalse dermuit-rygery merk Oubal dat ons nie alleen is in hierdie sinnelose oefening nie. So sien Oubal byvoorbeeld ou Shane Warne het erg te velde getrek teen die Aussie-keurders oor hul swak spankeuses, ‘n deuntjie wat hier te land nie onbekend is nie.

Waqar Younis, afrigter van Pakistan, het Oubal verstom deur sy kaptein Shahid Afridi “breindood” te noem, maar dit verbaas Oubal glad nie dat hulle intussen albei uit hul poste bedank het nie. Oubal het nog nie Sri Lanka se lamen-tering gehoor nie, maar saam met SA moet Nostrofred dan seker ook vra wat fout is met hierdie drie lande se krieket dat hulle ook nie die groepfase kon oorleef nie.

Wat Oubal dan bring by die wat wel die halfeindstryde gehaal het. Laat ons nou maar eerlik wees, as dit nie was dat Bangladesh ‘n gemors gemaak het van twee lopies aanteken

vanaf drie balle nie, dan was Indië, die selfverklaarde koning van kort formate, ook nie ‘n semi-fi nalis nie en moes Nostrofred ook ‘n vraagteken oor hul krieket

geplaas het. NZ, wat alles voor hulle platgevee het in die groepfase, is onseremoniëel deur Engeland uitge-

boender in die halfeindstryd, maar Oubal kon nog nie agterkom of hulle al by die nersderm uitgekom het nie.En dan die groot openbaring vir neef Nostrofred — die

twee spanne in die eindstryd was die enigste twee teen wie die Proteas verloor het en albei was maar naelskraapse oor-winnings, soos wat dit nou maar in oogwinkkrieket gaan. Selfs Wes-Indië wat uiteindelik so dramaties skouspelag-tig gewen het, het ‘n verloor op hul kerfstok gehad in die groepfase, nogal teen Afghanistan.

‘Tja, neef Nostrofed, ons kan klaagliedere aanhef oor te veel wydlopers, onnodige uithardlope, waar AB in die kolf-orde inpas, hoeveel draaiers ons moet speel, die verkeerde spankeuses, en of dit regverdig is om die onervare Kagiso Rabada die laaste boulbeurt te laat afstuur, maar in sy fi nal-iteit redekawel ons oor die meriete van tiddlywinks.

“Keep a demon busy, I thought. Right. Maybe he fancies a game of Tiddlywinks.” — Rick Riordan

T(20)iddlywinks boender in die halfeindstryd, maar Oubal kon nog nie agterkom of hulle al by die nersderm uitgekom het nie.

SA kampioene in boogskiet

Following the third and penultimate round of street soccer this weekend in Polokwane, it seems clear that two teams will represent Limpopo in Gauteng in May. Mam’s Tavern and Percy’s Pepsi are in the lead with 26 and 21 points respectively, following their clash on Saturday.

The Smirnoff Raga Bolo street soccer tour-nament has only three weeks to go until the fi nal match, which is to be played in May in Johannesburg. The winner of that match will receive R100 000 in prize money along with other rewards for the tavern which they rep-resent.

The teams appeared refreshed aft er the Easter weekend break and took the grounds in high spirit. Disappointingly, three of the six teams scheduled to play in this round of

the knockout stages, failed to show on the day and were disqualifi ed. Their disqualifi -cation did give the remaining teams the edge as they were handed walk over points.

At midday, the face off everyone had been waiting for kicked off . Mam’s Tavern and Percy’s Pepsi sported new kit and a few new players as they took their positions. It was Mam’s who opened the goal account with a fantastic cross straight into the bott om corner by winger, Thomas Shibangwe.

Percy’s Pepsi struggled to stay in the game and at the fi nal whistle had to concede to a 12 – 4 defeat. The last leg of the Polokwane league will take place in Sheshego on 16 April.

Beneche en Canell Jackson van die Hoërskool Merensky se boogskietklub het aan die SA Nasionale Veldboogskietkam-pioenskappe deelgeneem. Meer as honderd skuts het aan die uitmergelende byeenkoms deel-geneem. Die skuts was elke dag gemiddeld agt ure aan die bloe-

dige son blootgestel. Beneche (YAFFU) en Canell (JFBU) het albei goud in hul afdelings ge-wen. Beneche het ook elke dag ‘n provinsiaal kwalifi serende tel-ling geskiet. Canell en Lin-Mari Theron (wat nie die byeenkoms kon voltooi nie) het albei nasio-nale kleure verwerf.

Mam’s will play in Jozi

The schools’ rugby season has begun and Stanford Lake College’s fi rst rugby team took part in the annual Trever-ton Rugby Festival. The SLC team did exceptionally well once again this year. The team was honoured by the tournament organisers as they were chosen to play the hosts, Treverton, in the tournament opener on the fi rst day. All three matches

went really well with the backline showing some great attacking and defensive capabilities. The ‘Badgers’ also played in the tournament fi nal against Kloof on the last day, as they were the only two unbeaten teams. Of the three matches played, SLC won two and lost one. Seen in the photo is captain Austin Johnson tackling a player from the opposition.
