Help for crime victimsNICOLE MCCAIN

@nickymccain

Sixteen counsellors have been trained tohelp victimsof crime in theOceanViewpolice’s victim-friendly room.

The counsellors received the basic victimsupport training offered by the police andprovincial Department of Community Safe-ty, explains Angie Latchman, Wynberg po-licing cluster spokesperson. They are ex-pected to begin active duty “shortly”.

“The roles and functions of a victim-friendly room and victim support counsel-lors at a police station are extremely impor-tant to victims of crime. Counsellors receiveintensive training,” she says.These counsellors will help victims and

provide crisis intervention, explains Latch-man.“The victim supporter is trained to calm

the victim and to help the victim decide be-tween his options.More specifically, the vic-tim supporter helps rape victims in the im-

mediate aftermath of a rape, family mem-bers of murder victims, victims of hijackingand all manner of violent crimes,” she says.The counsellors are also trained to recog-

nise trauma in children and to recommendthe appropriate help, Latchman says.“In otherwords, an unruly teenagerwho’s

brought to the police station is generally atraumatised teenager who is acting out histrauma, not a naughty child who needs pun-ishment. Victim support counsellors alsodeal with child abuse and help the police

with the removal of children to places ofsafety when needed. This includes cases ofchild trafficking,” she says.The counsellors will also provide help in

cases of domestic violence, Latchman says.The victim-friendly roomwas not in oper-

ation at Ocean View police station for threemonths due to the resignation of victim sup-port counsellors, Latchman says.“The appointment of new counsellors will

definitely have a positive impact on the helpafforded to victims of crime.”

City organises training,work for vulnerable localsAhundred peoplewith disabilities receivedmunicipal jobs through a recent skills pro-gramme.The City of Cape Town’s social develop-

ment and early childhood development di-rectorate organised the contract work aspart of its vulnerable groups programme.The programme is being run across all

eight social development district offices, in-cluding Mitchell’s Plain, Athlone, OceanView, Westlake, Belhar and Atlantis.Participants completed a workplace

skills training programme before startingthree-month contracts which expire at theend of June. They have been placed at localorganisations, libraries, clinics, schoolsandpolice stations andperformadministra-tive tasks such as filing, managing switch-boards, helpingwith reception duties, mon-itoring Grade R learners at schools, weav-ing cane and restoring cane furniture.“Finding work in South Africa is hard. It

is even harder for people with disabilities,despite employment targets that are meantto level the playing fields. Toomany organi-sations simply do not have the time or incli-nation to train a person with a disabilitywho could be an asset to their business inthe long run. There is also the prevailingstigma that often sees people with disabili-

ties being marginalised.“The key to our workplace skills pro-

gramme is to prepare the candidates for theworkplace and improve their prospects offull-time employment,” says Suzette Little,Mayco member for social development andearly childhood development.Another City initiative, the livelihood

skills project, got under way in Decemberlast year. It sees 53 candidates undergoingentrepreneurship training to start theirown community-based businesses.The five-day training programme is pro-

vided by the Disability Workshop Develop-ment Enterprise.Recently, the first group of 18 completed

their training in wheelchair and bicycle re-pairs and maintenance. The next group of18 trainees will be taught arts and craftsskills and the final group will be trained inshoe and bag repairs.“We will be keeping a close eye on this

group through continued mentoring andongoing support as they put their traininginto practice,” says Little.Monthly market and craft days are being

scheduled by the Disability Workshop De-velopment Enterprise for the candidates toexhibit and promote their products and ser-vices.

The police are urging the youth to makegood use of the Muizenberg Police Mu-

seum, which was reopened last Wednesday.The museum was first opened in 1990 but

had to be closed a few years ago due to dam-age. Following a revamp it was officiallyopened to the public by Nathi Nhleko, na-tional police minister last week. He wasjoined by deputy minister Maggie Sotyu,Lieutenant-General Khomotso Phahlane,acting police commissioner, and Lieuten-ant-GeneralKhombinkosi Jula amongst oth-ers.The museum, the first of its kind in the

province, is located where the old Muizen-berg police station was. Entrance is free.Many items of interest are on display, in-

cluding criminal cases, a prison cell, oldguns and an old charge office.Phahlane says communitymembersmust

make good use of the museum.“The reopening of the museum creates a

platform where members of the communitycan familiarise themselves with the work ofthepolice.Make sure of it, learn from it. Thisis a critical platform which serves as a re-minder of where we come from and wherewe are. We hope the museum will do justiceand continue to educate everyone. Youngpeople must take advantage of this facility,”he says.Last week’s opening ceremonywas part of

a three-phase outreach programme by thetop police officials. The second leg of the out-reach programme led them to Lavender Hillwhere they stopped at the Village care cen-tre before they proceeded to a sports field.Their aim was to talk to the community

there and to address their challenges, aswellas to make a call to work hand in hand with

the police. Issues on the table were safety,crime, drugs, guns and gangsterism in thearea.Addressing the gathering Phahlane said it

was time to not only focus on drug users butdrug dealers as well. He said police couldn’tdo that alone and needed community mem-bers to work with them.“Police will never win if they work alone.

We are coming back to you to engage so thatwe can come with lasting solutions to saveour communities. We want to hear yourproblems so that we can go back to the boardand see how we can address them.”He also urged community members to not

interfere with police when they were doingtheir work.“If we attack the police we are depriving

ourselves of the services they have to offerus. Allow them to do their job; all you cando is to work with them, not to attack themor even burn their vehicles,” he said.Provincial police minister Dan Plato said

at the gathering it was time people gave in-formation to the police.“These people committing crime, selling

drugs, involved in gangsterism don’t comefrom space. They are in our community andwe know them. Report to the police so thatthey can be arrested,” he said.

A project team is being established to ex-plore options for Long Beach.

The team, which is still unofficial, will bemade up of members of different City of CapeTown departments, the Simon’s TownAmenities Development Company and theSimon’s Town Business Forum, says sub-council chairperson Felicity Purchase.

Ward councillor Simon Liell-Cock will al-so serve on the project team.

“The team will look at developing recrea-tional opportunities at the beach. LongBeach is ideal for diving, paddle skiing, kay-aking and waterskiing,” says Purchase.

The beach is currently underused. Thebeach has been the site of antisocial behav-iour, which has prompted a call to demolishunused toilets at the site (“Nasty toilets setto go”, People’s Post, 1 December 2015). Thetoilet building has been vandalised.

The best way to make the beach saferwould be to demolish the ablution block, Da-vid Erickson of the Simon’s Town Communi-ty Police Forum previously told People’sPost.

Belinda Walker, Mayco member for com-munity services and special projects, saysthe necessary documentation for a demoli-tion permit has been submitted.

The project to improve recreational facili-ties is “only in the planning phase and thereare no details at present”, she adds.

The Rotary Club of Claremont showed itssupport for the National Sea Rescue Insti-tute (NSRI) again by donating R500 000 to-wards the new base station in Kommetjielast Saturday.

The new location of the NSRI station ismuch better for responding to emergen-cies as it will reduce call-out times by upto half an hour. The NSRI volunteers willalso be given an upgraded working space,including new offices, ablution facilitiesand boat shed.

Brad Geyser, operations board memberof region 1 of the NSRI, says they aregrateful to the Rotary Club for the dona-tion.

“With the new base we’ll be able to havea much quicker turnaround time whenthere is a crisis and be able to save manymore lives,” he says.

The NSRI offers important public servi-ces along the coast of Kommetjie, includ-ing rescuing boats in distress at sea, help-ing at car accident scenes on the coastalroads and cliffs and saving stranded dol-phins and whales.

The relationship between the RotaryClub of Claremont and the NSRI stretchesover three decades. These two organisa-tions have worked hand-in-hand on manysuccessful projects that benefitted com-munities in their areas of operations. Thenew NSRI building project in Kommetjiewill be no different.

Paul de Groot, former president of theclub, says supporting the NSRI’s newbuilding project in Kommetjie was aneasy decision as the NSRI plays such animportant role in the area, and the newbase station will increase its efficiency.

Big brick for new NSRI station

Ian Klopper,commander of theNSRI station inKommetjie, Paulde Groot, formerpresident of theRotary Club ofClaremont, andBrad Geyser, NSRIoperational boardmember for region1, at a specialevent held lastSaturday.

The new NSRI base station in Kommetjie was unveiled last week.

Easter Bunny takesegg-stra special hopLast week the Easter Bunny could not bedistracted by the aroma of hot cross bunsand pickled fishwafting on the south-easteraround the Peninsula.He had more important business with a

visit to young patients at the Red CrossWarMemorial Children’s Hospital.These youngsters received an egg-stra

special treat when the Easter Bunny ar-riveda fewdays early tomakea special visitto the hospital on Thursday.Every year the Easter Bunny, accompa-

nied by various guests, visit the children tospread joy and brighten their day by shar-ing hugs and handing out Easter treats.TheEaster goodies are donated to thehos-

pital by various organisations through theFriends of the Children’s Hospital Associa-tion (Focha), a non-profit organisationbasedat thehospital that providesnon-med-ical support to patients and their families.The event is one of twoannual eventsheld

at the hospital that are designed to includehospitalised children in festivities theywould ordinarily miss out on and to spread

joy at times which would be tough for chil-dren and their families to spend in hospital.“There is nothing better than a good

friend, except a good friend full of surpris-es,” said the Easter Bunny before happilyhopping between wards.“The best part of my Easter weekend is

visiting my friends here at the Red CrossWar Memorial Children’s Hospital. Noth-ing brings me more joy than being able tobrighten their lives over the Easter period.The visit always sets the tone for the restof my Easter.”Angelique Jordaan, hospital spokesper-

son, was also very grateful for the visit.“We are very grateful for all the Easter

goodies for thepatients.Thishasput a smileon the children’s faces and made their stayin hospital over the Easter period slightlybetter by distracting them from the reasonthey are in hospital.“Thank you to everyonewho donated and

thank you to Focha for ensuring that the pa-tients do not miss out on Easter celebra-tions,” she said.

“Research has shown that increased seatbelt compliance will mean thousands oflives saved, thatwould have otherwise beenlost, in the horrific crashes that plague ourroads,” says Donald Grant, provincial min-ister for transport and public works.In a statement last week he emphasised

the fact that car occupants – drivers andpassengers – continue to be the majority ofroad deaths in the Western Cape.In response to the neglect of the seat belt

rule, Safely Home launched the “first kiss”multimedia campaign this month.SaysGrant: “Research and statistics have

shown that failure to use a seat belt is a cer-tain route to death or serious injury duringcollisions.“When a car crash occurs, the occupants

who are not restrained continue to moveforward at the same speed at which the carwas travelling before the collision.“They are catapulted forward into the

structure of the car, into other occupants orhurled from the car to almost certaindeath,” he says.The campaign consists of a series of radio

advertisements, billboards and cinema adbumpers at major cinemas and is live on-line on Facebook and Twitter.It is anchored by the “Fist Kiss” televi-

sion commercial, which was first aired onSABC1 during the screening of an episodeof Generations on Friday 18 March.It will air on all three SABC channels as

well as e.tv, kykNET and CTV, and can be

viewed at https://safelyhome.western-cape.gov.za/.The commercial is adapted from the

“Damage” ad produced by Northern Ire-land’s government.Grant says this advertisementwas credit-

ed by the Irish Road Safety Authority ashaving brought about a doubling in backseat seat belt wearing and a 50% increasein front seat wearing rates in Ireland andNorthern Ireland.The “First Kiss” commercial has been lo-

calised to reflect Western Cape and SouthAfrican circumstances, and the focus hasbeen shifted from the crash to the people in-volved.The shoot took place over two days in stu-

dio and on location in Woodstock and theBo-Kaap. Local companies provided all ser-vices.Real traffic officers, forensic pathology

technicians, emergency medical techni-cians and firemen took part in the makingof the advertisement.He adds: “Not wearing a seat belt is

against the law. It is also extremely danger-ous, not just for you, but for other peoplein the car. Unbuckled passengers becomewrecking balls in a collision, killing and se-verely injuring others, even passengerswho have buckled up.“We can all be a part of the change that

willmakeour roads safer, andmake the life-saving decision to buckle up whenever weare inside a car.”

Minister airs horror ofseat belt laziness

City lets barkingdogs lie?DESIREE RORKE

@dezzierorke

Although the animal bylaw in respect ofbarking dogs is frownedupon bymany

residents as nonsensical, the City of CapeTown is adamant that this bylaw can andis still enforced by Law Enforcement in avery practical sense.People’s Post regularly receives com-

plaints from readers about their rowdyneigbourhood dogs, coupled with theCity’s inability to enforce the bylaw.In most cases it so happens that the nui-

sance dog, after being reported to Law En-forcement, will be considerably quieterwhen City officers arrive on the premises,making it impossible for them to take law-ful action against the dog owner. The caseis subsequently closed, until another isopened.In terms of the bylaw no dog is allowed

to bark for more than three minutes inhalf an hour or for more than six minutesin an hour.But how do you prove this?As is the case in any other legal matter,

sufficient evidence is needed to prosecutein the municipal courts.In this instance, a complete “barking

monitoring schedule”, as well as audio-vi-sualmaterial, would be needed, accordingto JP Smith, Mayco member of safety andsecurity.

Officers monitorSmith says just because many of the

complaints reported cannot be corrobo-rated by the investigating officers whohave to monitor the dogs at the identifiedlocations, it doesnotmean thebylaw isnotbeing contravened.“Obviously the officers cannot monitor

the location on a 24-hour basis,” he says.“Enforcement action will therefore in-

volve an initial compliance notice direct-ing the dog owner to remedy the situation.“In the event of non-compliance this

will be followed, inmost cases, by the com-pilation of a docket containing the com-plainant’s affidavit, which includes abarkingmonitoring schedule andwhatev-er audio-visual evidence is available, sothat the dog owner can be summoned tocourt on the prosecutor’s instruction,” hesays.However, he doesn’t clarify how this

would be done in the absence of officersto constantly monitor the premises.The officer, he says, may also opt to is-

sue a written notice to appear in courtwith the option of paying an admission ofguilt fine.

Impounding“In the meantime, and particularly

when the officer has also established thatthere is indeed a contravention in termsof the barking provision, which the ownerhas not remedied or where they have fail-ed to ensure compliance, the dogs may beimpounded and the matter dealt with interms of the animal bylaw. This processwill run parallel to the one of summonsand prosecution.”However, according to a source, the lack

ofmanpower in LawEnforcement in actu-al fact doesn’t afford officers the timeneeded for compiling such dockets.In extreme cases, says this source, an

admission of guilt fine would be issued toa repeat “offender”, who would then payit and be on his way, often leaving thecause of the problem unresolved.“In other cases dog owners do comply

with notices to try and find out why theirdogs bark and take action, but they oftenwork full days and simply have no controlof their dogs’ barking habits during theday,” says this source.The issue evidently posing several chal-

lenges, People’s Post asked Smith whetherit reallymade sense to use the City’s limit-ed manpower on such cases and whetherthe City has had any successful court ap-pearances in this regard.No specific answer was forthcoming

from Smith, however.TheCity alsodidnot respond towhether

it is looking into other more practical so-lutions, which might see this bylawamended.

Obviously theofficers cannotmonitor the locationon a 24-hour basis.

City gives carrotfor compostNICOLE MCCAIN

@nickymccain

In an attempt to reduce waste dumped inlandfills, the City of Cape Town council is

embarking on a project to encourage resi-dents to make compost at home.The City will make 5 000 home-compost-

ing containers available for free to qualify-ing homeowners.The distribution, discussed in a report

which appeared before a recent Good HopeSubcouncil meeting, follows a researchproject carried out at over 600 homes inHeathfield, Edgemead, Bongweni andScottsville in 2013 and 2014.The project, which also included commu-

nity centres in Kensington, Atlantis andKhayelitsha, showed a 91% participationrate.On average 17kg of household waste and

13kg of waste were diverted at communityorganisations every month.The study found that almost all of the par-

ticipants had previously thrown their or-ganic waste in their wheelie bins, but afterthe study three-quarters of them were com-posting at home.Based on this, the City’s solid waste man-

agement department agreed to distributethe 5 000 composting containers.The same number of containers will be

distributed for the next three years.Residents can apply and will be placed on

a waiting list.The homeowner will have to have a se-

cure garden with at least 1m² and a mini-mum of 30m² of greenery.Only the homeowner may apply and only

single residences will be considered.Theproject is expected tobe launchedand

advertised next month.

Giving local musicians support, respectand a place to grow creatively is the prin-

ciple on which non-profit organisation Root-spring is founded.Rootspring is dedicated to servingmusical

talent, often in need of a platform and fund-ing.Rootspring started in November 2014 and

released its first album, Now is the time byRoger Lucey, in May last year.The organisation is about to launch three

new albums: Kings by Native Young, Esho

Funi by Vuyo Katsha andModokali by Ama-thongo.Rootspring will be holding a world music

concert at Bluebird garage in Muizenberg toshowcase these and someof its newer artists.The love of goodmusic is the driving force

for everyone working at Rootspring, includ-ing founder Antonio Rivera.“Our hope is that we are making a differ-

ence in the lives of some musicians in SouthAfrica,” says spokesperson Ebony Blundell.“Our feeling is that unfortunately much of

the music business, globally speaking, tendsto simply see artists as cash cows. The rela-tionship between many of these labels and

musicians seems to be one-sided, where thelabel tries to ‘own’ its artists.“The Rootspring business model is based

muchmore on a relationship ofmutual bene-fit,” explains Blundell.“We see the value in their work, and give

them as artists the respect they are due andvice versa. Although it is important that wecan sustain ourselves long term, we still seethe benefit and value of creating music sim-ply for its beauty.Valuedoesnot alwayshaveto been seen in monetary terms,” she says.V The concert will take place on Saturday 9 April . Doorsopen at 18:30 and the music starts at 19:30. Entry isR200.

“Youwill never knowhow strong youare until being strong is the only

choice you have.”This is a message on an art block that

Johannes Mokobi (24) sprayed on ablock. He is selling it for a living inMuiz-enberg and the surrounding areas.Beside being a message that he sells to

make ends meet, it has become a pillarof strength for him because life knockedhim down several times but he was ableto stand up again.Abandoned at a crèche in Johannes-

burg by his father when he was onlythreemonths old hewas raised by an eld-erly woman who took him in.He managed to stay with her till he

turned 17. Life becamedifficultwhen shedied. One of the old woman’s children letthe house and Mokobi was kicked out ashe didn’t bring anything to the table.He dropped out of school while in

Grade 9. He tried and failed to get bursa-ries so that he could finish his matric.In 2011 he came to Cape Town in pur-

suit of a better life but it didn’t work out.“I went back to Joburg. I was confused,

I didn’t know what to do. Life was noteasy. I was on the streets, tried to makeends meet. I would make money; theproblem was I didn’t know what I want-ed. I had a lot of friends and we woulduse that money. When the money wasfinished, the friends would disappearand I was left alone,” he says.He had to decide what he wanted to do

with his life. He moved to Cape Townagain.He now stays at the Haven night shel-

ter in 10th Avenue in Retreat. Paying atleast R84 a week for the shelter, he sayslife is not easy.“It’s better, because I have a place to

hide my head, but it’s difficult. You haveto be out of the shelter by 06:30 and youdon’t get to rest. I want to save money aswell so that I can find better accommoda-tion,” he says.He started projects to keep him going

but it wasn’t a walk in the park. He start-ed a car wash business and sells his artblocks. He also cleans windows and oth-er things.He is trying to save money for better

accommodation and to pay for a web de-velopment course.“I want a better life for me. I’m trying

to save money so that I can finish mycourse and make something out of mylife. Things have been tough for me, butwhen I look at where I came from andwhere I am now I can only be hopeful.I haven’t lost hope that one day thingswill look up forme. Lifewill bemuch bet-ter than it is now.“I’m also pleading for someone who

canhelpmewithmybusiness ofwashingcars and to completemycourse,”he says.V Readers who want to help Mokobi can call himon 071 814 1993.

Johannes Mokobi (24) sells his art blocksin Muizenberg and surrounding areas. Hehas had a difficult life but is hopeful thathelp will come his way so that he cangrow his car wash business and finish webdevelopment training.

found various cellphones and IT equipment,includingan iPhone thathadbeenstolendur-ing a housebreaking in Seawinds earlier in

March.The owner of the residence, a 50-year-old

woman, could not provide a reasonable ex-planation for why the items were there andshe was subsequently arrested for being inpossession of stolen property.She is currently in detention at Muizen-

berg police station and has appeared in theMuizenberg Magistrate’s Court.In the week of 18 March 41 arrests were

PENNED BY A JOURNO

You don’tdrive aloneI have been a licenced driver for a fewyearsnow and because of my job, how far awayfrom civilisation I live and the lifestyle Ilead, I spend much of my life behind thewheel.In a bid to drive the fastest, nicest, coolest

or flashiest car we can afford, drivers thesedays seem to forget howmuchof a responsi-bility it is to be in control of a vehicle.In a rush to get where we need to be, the

common courtesies that need to be shownwhile driving, especially on our nationalroads, are blatantly ignored by some.This morning, on my 44km commute to

the office, my driver-side mirror became acasualty of what can only be referred to asnegligent driving.Driving at 120km/H in the fast lane on

one of our national roads, I was met withthe unwelcome invasion of a work truckwhose driver felt it was okay to cross threelanes straight from the off-ramp.In a bid to avoid an accident that could

have claimed my life (and maybe the truckdriver’s too, seeing as he was not wearinghis seat belt) I swerved onto the shoulder,hitting my mirror on the barrier wall. Thetruck was right next to my car at the time.To many this may not seem like a big

deal, but the other driver refused to ac-knowledge anywrongdoing and flashedmethe almighty middle finger.A quick check of your blindspot before

changing lanes would be appreciated nexttime.It is behaviour like this that really needs

to change. The road is for us all. Not onlyfor those drivers who continue to force oth-ers off the road, who think the safe follow-ing distance is an invitation to changelanes, who drive as if their tyres are not al-lowed to touch the tar and especially thosewho are irresponsible in thinking their ac-tions will not affect others.Robots, stop and yield signs, speed limits

and other road rules are not suggestions.The most dangerous drivers are not only

those who drive drunk, it is especiallythosewho drive for themselves. The realityis when you get behind the wheel, you takethe lives of all the other drivers around youin your hands.Next time you drive, think about your ac-

tions.

Beware ATM crimeThank you for alerting the public aboutthe ATM gangs in the city centre area(“ATM gangs ‘well dressed’ ”, People’sPost, 22 March). I have observed somesuspicious people loitering and offeringhelp in Strand Street. Inside the Pick nPay supermarket are (both Absa andStandard Bank) ATMs. I have alertedthe security who are usually reluctantto help. Sometimes I call police, but Iam not sure if they take it seriously.

The last time was two weeks agowhen I saw one security officer con-fronting two other security officers whowork inside the Pick n Pay area. Hewas shouting at them that they werepart of the crime as they did not takeany action.

Anyway, people must be alert!HERMON OGBAMICHAEL,

What City, residentsdo with shack firesWith winter on our doorstep and the firstchill felt in the Mother City, we dreadthe devastation and loss of life andproperty suffered by shack dwellers ininformal settlements.

Ongoing education regarding the threatof open fires remains a priority, andsome media reports purport that theblame must be placed on local govern-ment in respect of the cause of shackfires.

The misleading reports cover most ofthe bases, except for explaining thenarrative and implications of informalsettlements on private land.

Legally, the City of Cape Town, provin-cial government or other authorities areprohibited from building electrical orplumbing infrastructure on private landwhere informal settlements have sprungup.

But the City is proactive in supplyingportable toilets to prevent the potentialspread of disease.Another stumbling block, as reported,

is that local informal settlement residentsironically stone firefighters and incurmuch damage to firefighting vehicleswhen arriving to extinguish fires.These brave officials are deployed to

help the very shack dwellers.To alleviate their plight of experiencing

devastating fires, the initiative to usealternative solar energy and photovoltaicinstallations by the community leader-ship of the Siqalo informal settlement inMitchell’s Plain has been welcomed.“God gave us the sun and the wind.

Best that we use them,” as quipped by alocal.

Good things happenFive years ago I was in Grade 11 andneeded funding for a student exchangetrip to Germany. One of your journal-ists wrote an article and told my story.Through the article I received a sponsorwho funded my trip during which I meta German teacher and principal.

Two years later they offered me anopportunity of a lifetime and I had achance to further my studies at anyinstitute of my choice and in any coursehere in Cape Town. They covered allmy travelling costs, medical costs andfees. Today I am a qualified beautytherapist working in Rondebosch.

Thank you so much – if it wasn’t forthat article I don’t know what wouldhave become of me.

Heroes gave us our rightsOn 21 March, South Africans officiallycelebrate Human Rights Day, declared apublic holiday in 1994 following theinauguration of then president NelsonMandela.

Monday’s celebration paid tribute tothose 69 unarmed persons who lost theirlives and the countless injured in theirpursuit to ensure freedom, fairness andopportunities for all South Africans.

The protest was against the pass lawsat the time. The pass law was alsohumiliatingly referred to as the dompasand was a particular indignation forblack men who had to produce it ondemand and could be arrested on the spotif they did not have it on them.

Also referred to as heroes’ day, theevent marked an awakening across theworld to the inhumanity of the apartheid

regime. However, it also meant the startof the end for peaceful protests againstapartheid in South Africa.My appeal to you, the unregistered

voter, the one who enjoys the freedom ofreligion, belief and opinion, freedom ofexpression, freedom of association andthe right to education is to be remindedof those who lost their lives to ensure wehave these rights. In addition to access-ing these rights let all of us be mindful ofthe associated responsibilities.So, don’t say “I don’t need to vote” or

“My voice does not matter” but, rather,as an affected stakeholder, find mediumsto convey your concerns or supportpertaining to issues that affect all SouthAfricans.

Emergencynumber savesthe dayTwo weeks ago I was reading TygerBur-ger*, which highlighted the N1 and N2emergency assistance number(021 946 1646).I put the contact into my cellphone,

not thinking I would ever need it.On Sunday 13 March I was on the N2

coming from Jan Smuts Drive inAthlone. Driving just past the airport Inoticed my car smoking and the heatgauge going up. I slowed down justabout 500m before the R300 turnoff.Not a safe area to stop at all, I called

the emergency number and gave themthe logistics of where I was and toldthem I was all alone (the scariest fiveminutes ever).Within five minutes a police van

pulled up with two officers who waitedwith me. Then a traffic services cararrived with a female and male officer.A white patrol van then brought

water and assisted me. They were kind,helpful and patient and I am utterlygrateful for this service, so a big thankyou to everybody who assisted me.Thank you to the best-run city in SouthAfrica.PS. I also sent this number to all my

girlfriends.SHEILA ARENDSE,

While they are all well-knownCape Townmusicians in their own right, the mem-

bers of TopDog SA are gearing up to playtheir first festival in front of their homecrowd at the Cape Town International JazzFestival this week.The band – made up of Don Vino (saxo-

phone), Camillo Lombard (keyboards),Charlton Daniels (bass), Mornay Hofmees-ter (drums) and Mark Williams (guitars) –hail from suburbs across Cape Town.The musicians were on tour with Tevin

Campbell andpreparing for a showat Johan-nesburg’s Carnival City when Camillo cameup with the idea to start a band.“We were individuals at the time; we used

to work together a lot, but we weren’t aunit,” Camillo explains.Camillo also came up with the name Top-

Dog, even though Charlton wasn’t too im-pressed with it.“I thought it would sound arrogant,” but

once they started getting bookings, he says,the name grew on him.With their combined musical CVs, Top-

DogSAhas every right to be a little arrogant.TopDog SA has been together for three

years now, originally performing as a tightbacking band for the likes of Emo and Louk-maan Adams, Lloyd Cele, Judith Sephumaand Danny K. But once they started backingJonathan Butler they decided to start work-ing on their own original material.“We realisedwehadanopportunity to per-

form anywhere in the world with the band,”Camillo says, adding: “His smooth South Af-rican sound kind of led us into a directionas well.”

Hard workersBetween working as the principal of the

CapeMusic Institute, Camillo is a sought aft-er accompanist for legends like JimmyDlud-lu. Don Vino rates his work on Kirk Wha-lum’s album Gospel according to Jazz Chap-ter 4 as one of the highlights of his career.Drumming lecturer by day, Mornay has

similarly workedwith big local and interna-tional names, ranging fromJudith Sephumato Chevelle Franklin. With more than 16 in-ternational tours under his belt, Mark’sskills have seen him play in 14 differentcountries. Charlton was chosen as a mentor

alongside big names like Frank Paco for lastyear’s Artscape Youth Jazz Festival.The band has been hard at work on their

debut album at Fish Hoek’s Paris Studios.Griqua DNA will be out in time for the jazzfestival.Mornay describes it as a “mostly in-strumental fusion album” with elements ofgenres from ghoema to funk and even a littlegospel.Their completely independent album also

features performances by Jonathan Butlerand Marrion Meadows.When they aren’t on stage, the members

are all involved in youth developmentthrough various musical training projects.“We have to pass on the baton to the next

generation and provide them with skills,”Mornay says. “We’ve got to impart what weknow and what helped us in the industry.”“We’d like to see a better future for the up-

coming musicians,” Camillo adds. “We hadour fair share of challenges and it’s up to usto rectify those mistakes by imparting thecorrect knowledge.”Charlton points out that there aremiscon-

ceptions of what themusic industry is aboutandmany say: “You’ll nevermake it as amu-sician.”“We’rehere to givebackandprove to them

that what they are saying isn’t true: thereare possibilities.”

This weekTopDog will be doing just that when they

play on the Basil Manenberg Coetzee stageat theCapeTown International JazzFestivalthis weekend.They will also be performing at the festi-

val’s free concert at Greenmarket Square onWednesday.Camillo works on the festival every year,

but says this year is extra special because,instead of backing another artist, the bandwill be playing their own original material.The festival is also a platformwhere inter-

national artists and promotors can see andhear the band, possibly leading to bookingsfor other festivals.“Also, it’s an honour and a privilege to

play in front of a home crowd; our own peo-ple,” Mornay says.V For more information about TopDog SA, their showsand upcoming album, visit their Facebook page. Formore information about this weekend’s Cape Town In-ternational Jazz Festival, visit www.capetownjazz-fest.com.

diately by scoring two runs in thesecond and three runs in the thirdinning to take a 5-1 lead.Jacobs settled down and com-

pleted his five innings stint, con-ceding three hits, two walks and arun while striking out five hitters.He was replaced by Russell Oliv-

ier who pitched the last two in-nings, conceding two hits, twowalks and two runs, striking outone hitter.TheB side used four pitchers, Ja-

son Theys (2.2 inn, 3H, 3BB and 5runs) before being relieved by Ter-ence le Roux (0.1 inn, 1H and 3BB).He was relieved by Grant Robert-son (2 inn, 2H, 1K) before LeeMarks (2 inn) finished the game.The best hitters of the A side

“And then I said to myself: ‘Maybe to-day is the day.’”This is how Zimbabwean Mike

Fokoroni describes his 03:13:33 victory inthe OldMutual Two Oceans UltraMarathon(Omtom) on Saturday.Fokoroni raced to a comfortable finish,

outpacing and ultimately beating fellowcountryman and Nedbank athlete CollenMakaza (3:14:45) and last year’s champ Mot-lokoa Nkhabutlane (3:16:22) to the finishline.“The weather was so great! The pace was

slow in the beginning and I was just holdingback until half way,” Fokoroni added at thefinish line.“I just hung onto the stronger guys. At

45km I got confident and I saw the victorycould be mine if I tried, and that’s when Istarted to push.”Meanwhile, Caroline Wöstmann contin-

ued her path of marathon domination, suc-cessfully defending her 56km Omtom title.Wöstmann,whohadbeen clear at the start

that she intended to run at a slower pace,maintained a comfortable distance fromrace leader Tanith Maxwell. She took thelead in the final kilometres of the race – ina similar fashion to her surprise win lastyear – and broke the finish ribbon in a timeof 03:44:44.“It was a great training session with a

strong end result,” Wöstmann said.

Fokoroni’s finish was the slowest in 22years, while Wöstmann’s finish was alsoconsiderably slower than previous ultrawins. Wöstmann noted that the absence oftheRussianathletes (still banned frominter-national participation) eased the pressuresomewhat and contributed to a slower raceoverall.In thehalfmarathonmen’s race,Namakoe

Nkhasi sprinted to the finish in a time of01:03:38, beating Olympic hopeful Elroy Ge-lant by two seconds and narrowly missingthe course record. David Manja finished inthird place (1:03:45).Nkhasi attributed the weather conditions

to his end result, adding: “I stayed focusedand used the opportunities given to me inthe race to get in the lead.”In the women’s race, Irvette van Zyl

clinched the half marathon title in a time of01:13:14. Fellow Nedbank runner OnneileDintwe from Botswana reached the finishline fourminutes later, while Namibian Ali-na Armas came third (01:18:05).“This was a very special and important

race for me,” said Van Zyl, who kept her eyeon the prize throughout the race. “I came towin, but maintaining that pace on my ownin the front was tough.”

Record-settingSouthAfrican-bornColleendeReuck trav-

elled from the United States to make her ul-

tra marathon debut in the Omtom. She fin-ished fifth, much to the delight of the cheer-ing crowd at the finish line.

De Reuck’s finish time of 3:53:07 alsosmashed the 50 to 60 year age group recordby over 20 minutes.

In addition, she has recorded a new worldrecord for her age group by reaching the50km mark in 3:27:28. The previous 50kmrecord in the 50 to 54 age category was3:41:57, set in 1994.

According to race doctor Adrian Rotunno,the cool and overcast weather, coupled withspots of light rain,made fornear perfect raceconditions.

“Some of themost commonmedical issuesincluded mild to severe gastro, nausea andvomiting. Another common issue was exer-cise-associated postural hypotension, withdizziness and several episodes of collapseafter the finish line. Luckily the team wasthere to catch the runners, and simple treat-mentwith lower limbelevationdid the trick.The physios were kept very busy, treatingmuscle cramps. ‘Locked legs’ were the orderof the day. Finally, slippery conditions wereresponsible for mild abrasions.

“Fortunately, there were no major medi-cal incidents or trauma-related events dur-ing the race. All in all, a successful day inthe medical tent.”

Title sponsor Old Mutual’s R1m prize bo-nus to the male and female runner breaking

the ultra marathon records remains safe, asthe 1988 and 1989 records established byThompson Magawana (03:03:44) and Frithvan der Merwe (03:30:36) respectively con-tinue to stand.
