NOMPENDULO NGUBANE>>[email protected]

RESIDENTS in the GreaterEdendale areas, includingUmbali Unit 14, Ashdown and

Dambuza, looted and vandalisedforeign-owned shops onWednesday.

This took place after xenophobicattacksextendedtoPietermaritzburgon Wednesday.

Salons and many foreign-ownedshops were closed after foreignerswere tippedoff that theattackswouldmove to the city.

Police issued a statement sayingthatnoonewasinjuredintheattacks.

ManistuAlmarlsaidtheybrokein-to his shop and stole everything. Hebelievesthisactivitywaspromptedbythe xenophobic attacks that tookplaceintown.Almarlsaidheisscaredto live in South Africa after what hehas seen on television.

“I immigrated to South Africa be-cause of the war between EthiopiaandSomalia. Iwashopingforabetterlife, but what I am seeing is the totalopposite of what I had wished for.

“People are different - some ofthem take us as their brothers, butothers treat us like animals. They ar-gue that we sell goods at cheaperpricescomparedtoSouthAfricanpri-ces in their spaza shops. The differ-ence is not that much whencomparing their prices to ours.”

AnotherEthiopiannational,Abra-ham Kabedu said he was chasedaway by wars in Ethiopia. He rents aflat intownwithhis fourbrothers,butadmitted there are many Ethiopianswho have flocked to South Africa for

safety reasons and a better life.“What we are witnessing is scary

and it leaves uswithmanyquestions.South Africa is becoming like Ethio-pia -why are they attacking people oftheirownskincolour.Wearenotherewith bad intentions, we are here tobetter our lives.”

Preaching anti­xenophobia through wordsNOKULUNGA NGOBESE>> [email protected]

PROMPTED by the recentxenophobic attacks across thecountry, a KwaDambuza poethas written a poem in a bid toconscientise people about theoutbreak.

Sfiso ‘Inkunzi Yomthakathi’Makhanya (28), originally fromBulwer but who now lives inKwaDambuza, toldEchothathispoem titled “I see, you have for-gotten” is aimed at reviving thespirit of humanity among SouthAfricans.

Despite writing the poem in2008duringthefirstxenophobicattacks in the country, he saidliving in KwaDambuza where

theseattackswererifemadehimrealise there is a lot that needs tobe done in educating peopleabout the stigma.

“Although I had written itbefore, the latest incidents haveprompted me to retouch it in awaythatitwillappealmoretothetargeted audience.

“InthepoemIaskSouth Afri-cans if they have forgotten thatduring the struggle, many Afri-can countries also played a rolein bringing about democracy.

“Some of us originate fromAfrican countries, but are nowbased here. You also cannot callanother African citizen living inanother African continent aforeigner.InthispoemIquotetheformer President Thabo Mbeki

in his famous ‘I am an African’speech.

“I also make relevance to theFreedom Charter which statesthatAfricawillhavetheopportu-nity of contributing towards is-sues which affect the Africancontinent.”

Makhanya said it is painful tosee South African citizens de-stroyingproperty thatbelongs totheir fellow citizens, as foreignnationals are renting from localpeople.

“There is somuch thatpeopleneed to be educated about. Thefact thattheyareusingderogato-ry words is verbal abuse. AsAfricans we need to unite.”

Makhanya is no stranger topoetry, having performed at the

opening of the Brazil,Russia, India, China andSouth Africa (Brics) in2013 where he preachedabout unity betweencountries.

“My poetry is about edu-tainmentwhereIspeakaboutsocietal issues, substantiatingthem with facts.”

He is currently going to cityschools with local poetswhere they also teachpupils aboutxenophobiathroughthespokenword.

Crash probe ‘too slow’CHELSEA PIETERSE

FAMILIES of the Fezokuhlechildren who were killed andinjured in January’s Imbali crashsay they are perturbedby the slowpace of the investigation.

In January a bakkie carryingmore than 24 children fromFezokuhle Primary ploughed intoa house, killing eight pupils andinjuring more than 16.

The bakkie driver, LungileMthimkhulu, was criticallyinjured, but was discharged fromhospital a few weeks after theaccident.

She has however, refused

interviewswith thepress since theaccident three months ago.

Policesaidthecase isstillunderinvestigation and when it iscompleted, the docket will be sentto the public prosecutor for adecision.

Spokesperson Major ThulaniZwane said the driver’s where-abouts are known to the police.

Parents of the children whowere involved in the crash havecomplained that investigationsare taking too long and want tohear what happened fromMthimkhulu herself.

Philisile Njoko, the mother oftwo children critically injured in

the crash, said they had met withpolice last week to discussprogress.

“We spokewith police and theytold us to wait for them to finishwith their investigation. Weunderstand, but what I want toknow is why have we not heardanything from the bakkie driver?”

Njoko,whosesonanddaughterremained in the intensive care inEdendale Hospital for almost amonth, said she wanted to knowwhere the bakkie driver was andwhy the investigation was takingso long.

“We all feel the same. Eightchildren are dead. Why is she stillat home?”

Simphiwe Chonco, whosedaughterSinethembawaskilledinthe crash, said he and his family

had not heard anything from thebakkie driver.

“She has not come to see ourfamily to explain what happened,but we really cannot comment onhowwefeelbecausewedon’thaveany information on what causedthe crash.”

He said they had spoken topolice with the other families andcould not comment further on thematter as the case was still underinvestigation.

A police source said all the evi-denceonthecasehadtobecollect-ed and sorted before any chargescould be made.

They said it was a high prioritycaseandthepolicewantedtomakesure they had all their ducks in arow to “make sure nothing will gowrong”.

His CDhasbeenbrewing for some timeandis now ready to hit music stores.

Mkhize referred to as his CD as his dreamand says those who listen to it will be blownaway

“The titleof thealbumis IzibongeloZewun-dlu, which has 10 tracks. I have always beena person who had a connection to music fromayoung age. My visibility in the church andschool choir and gospel groups had an impacton my name. I am a person who was alwayspositive about my dream and I knew that oneday I would havemymusic recorded. Record-ing an albumwasmy first priority onmywishlist. I am grateful to the Almighty for givingmethe opportunity I have been waiting for.”

Well Done is Mkhize’s song that is close tohis heart.

“I was so emotional when I wrote that songand it explainswhy I relate to the song thewayIdo.Apart fromthat track, theCDisverydiffer-ent.

SpeakingtoEchoaboutherjourney, Mbambo said she isembarking on journey that ispartofherdream.ShepraisedJoyous Celebration forgrooming and growing her inthe music industry.

“I learnt somuch, butmostimportantly, I found the innerselfofSphumeleleasanartist.Dreamingalone isnot enough-theysayactionspeakslouderthan words. This is exactlywhat I’m doing. I knew that Iwas born to be a singer and Iknow I’m here to help peopleandservetheirspiritualneedswith music.

“Life has taughtme that asapersonyoucanrisefromanysituation. I have been withJoyous Celebration for sevenyears and I’m grateful forevery experience and lesson I

have been able to grasp. Oneof the important factors in lifeis to never change, just beyourself andbydoing that youarebeingtruetoyourself,”shesaid.

It is common for artists notto succeedwhen they take thesolo route, but Mbambo saidmusic lives in her andtherefore she won’t have thatchallenge.

“It does happen, but if oneis aware of his or her expecta-tions in life nothing will stopthat. It is a strength andhunger for success that drives

We need todirty ourhandsTHE violence currently engulfingthe province is badnews. Itwouldbe too simply to apportion blametobothsetsofthewarringfactions.The social and economicchallenges are immense.

A few weeks ago a formerprofessional team-mate wasconsidering suicide because ofunemployment. We are sitting ona time bomb.I am sure you arewondering what this has to dowith football. Last week I raisedthe issue of declining numbersof footballers fromthisprovince inthePSL.Inourtown,Pietermaritz-burg, we have seen a decliningnumber of football facilities. The

few remaining are in a terriblestate. It isashamethat thecurrentgeneration of footballers play inworsefacilitiesthanthoseenjoyedbyus during thedifficult times.

It is critical that black peoplestart loving themselves.Apartheid has done someirreparable damage to our brain.Theservicethatisgiventoourownpeople is pathetic. The quality ofcoaching, facilities, equipment,administration all determinewhether people are going tosucceedor fail. Ourpeopleneed tobeskilled inorder tocompetewithothers fairly in the job market. Idoubt ifwe are doing a good job inthe above aspects.

It is sad that a lot of resourcesare spent hosting internationalevents while many of our youthslack skills and are unemployable.Weall need todirty ourhandsanddo things that will empower theyouth of this country. Politics donot feed, clothe andhouse people.

People need to put their egosaside and do the right things toprevent our beautiful countryfrom deteriorating further.Empowerpeoplewithmeaningfulskills to prevent young peoplefrom becoming frustrated.

Unzima lo mthwalo.

esting visitors. We respect them andwe are just lucky this game will behosted by us.

“We will try our best to representour followers in our back yard in agood way. We are also lucky becausewe are familiar with weather condi-tions in Cape Town and our visitorsare also likely to find it interesting,”said De Sa.

OneofUnited’slong-servingmem-bers and star defender ThaboSeptember this week told Echo hissidewill be careful as visitors and ex-pect endless fireworks.

“Weareexpectinga toughone, es-pecially as visitors. We are also ex-pectingthemtocomeatus fromalldi-rections and make conditions toughfor us. I expect endless fireworks,”said September.

The other semi-finals, the secondone, is scheduled for Sunday whenVascoDaGamafromthenationalfirstdivision and Cape Town will lockhorns with Mamelodi Sundowns atLucas Moripe Stadium in Pretoria.

Da Gama’s leading goal scorerMbulelo Wambi says their approachwill be cautious because their oppo-nents areabig teamwhoalsowant tobe in the final.

“We respect them as PSL giants,but we know that if we win this, wewill already be in the final,” saidWambi.

Sundowns head coach PitsoMosimane believes the only way toovercome the visitorswill be to go forthe kill from the first whistle because“there are no small teams in the cupgames”.

More than meets the eyeALTHOUGH it is the appear­

ance of a home that buyersoften fall in love with, there

is sometimes more to a home thanmeets the eye.

This is according to AdrianGoslett, CEO of Re/Max ofSouthern Africa.

“Purchasing a property is alarge investment. In fact, for manyit is the largest financialinvestment they will ever make.”

For this reason it is importantthat buyers take time and givetheir decision the necessaryconsideration it requires beforebuying, he says.

Goslett provides buyers withthe top five potential defects tolook for:

Cracks in the foundation wallsWhile this may sound like they

are fairly easy to spot, cracks canbe hidden by layers of plaster andpaint. “Not every crack will meanthat there is a major defecthowever, some cracks couldindicate structural damage thatwill be extremely costly to fix.

Roof damageYellowing marks on the ceiling

arenormallyanindicationthattheroof is leaking. This should not beignored and if not repaired, couldresult in structural damage ordamp in the walls.

Foundation drainage

There must be sufficient andeffective water drainage aroundthe exterior of the home to avoidwater pooling or damp problemsin the low­lying areas of the prop­erty.

Faulty electrical systemLegislation requires the home­

owner to be in possession of a validElectrical Certificate of Compli­ance (ECOC), which will ensurethat the electrical work andinstallations are safe and meetthe required regulations of theSouth African National Stan­dards.

Plumbing problemsPlumbing issues are often

difficult to detect or check, as theproblem may be underground. Themore common defects includeoutdated piping materials andfaulty fixtures.

“Taking the time to ensure thatthe property is in good repair mayrequire some initial work on thebuyer’s part, however, the timeand effort will pay off in the longrun by providing the buyer with anappreciating asset that grows invalue,” Goslett says.
