Mzilikazi’s book a mustread political whodunitI am reading ‘Nothing Left To Steal’ byMzilikazi wa Afrika. This is a realperson and this is his real name.Anyway, it became his name aftersomeone introduced him to ‘Roots’, ahistorical account of the African-Ameri-can slavery, written by late author AlexHaley.

In Roots, the protagonist is KuntaKinte, whose master wanted him to adoptthe slave name, Toby. Kinte refused. Hewas adamant. He kept on running awayand to stop him they chopped part of hisfoot off.

He became a cripple. Mzilikazi was aninspired young man. He adopted hispresent name in his late teens. And sincethen he became known as Mzilikazi waAfrika. I often wondered what kind ofname that was. Now I know.

It means a ‘Warrior from Africa.’ Boyoh boy, you’d think such idealism wasover. But it is not. It is still there, in thepersonality of Mzilikazi wa Afrika.Reading his book made me wonder; whatmanner of man is he?

The first few pages may give a wrongimpression of him. Like he is arrogant.But he is not. He tells it as it is. After allhe is a journalist. And writes for theSunday Times newspaper, for those of usthat do not know.

And to top it all, he specializes ininvestigative journalism. This means hespecializes in exposing corrupt people.And corrupt people don’t like him. Theywant him out. And they have tried.Former National Police CommissionerBheki Cele was one of them.

But he was and still is not the onlyone. It seems there are still guys outthere, like the Iron Duke, the boss of

Orlando Pirates, who have wa Afrikaunder their radar.

Then there is the small matter of ourpresident.

According to wa Afrika, the was afterhe leaked the questions sent to him bythe NPA to the press and said it wasBulelani Ngcuka. But wa Afrika says hewas the one that received those question-naires from Zuma’s lawyer via a fax.

He says the questionnaires were sent tohis newspaper on condition that they willwrite and say BN was a spy. And seeingJZ telling the media that BN leaked thestory made him mad.

He says his respect for the man took anosedive. But I don’t want to revealeverything. You’ve got to read the bookyourself. It is a bomb, and exciting, andeasy to read.

It will take you to Mpumalanga toBobby Motaung. Anyone that wants to bea journalist should read this book. Butone thing for sure, it gives hope. It saysthere are good guys out there that loveSA.

It is important to love your country.And you don’t love it by donning coloursof a certain organization. You love it byexposing corruption.

Yes, wa Afrika is a patriot. It makesme think that not all black dudes arebad. Stay positive.

Learners toldto be focusedMBONGISENI MASEKO

Uxolo High School learners were en-couraged to focus on their studiesduring a career’s exhibition event

organised by Phakamisa Project.The career exhibition, which focused

on Grade 11 learners, was held at UzukoLwakhe Church, in Mandela Park.

The event was attended by DebbieSchafer, provincial Mec for education,representatives from Cape PeninsulaUniversity of Technology, False Bay Col-lege, College of Cape, Standard Bank,Nedbank, and also Musa Tiki, who is do-ing her honours in chemistry at the Uni-versity of Cape Town and was invited tomotivate learners.

Julia Bruintjies, the founder andproject director at Phakamisa Project,said the project is aimed at assistinglearners in their studies.

It was started last year and it aims atencouraging them to improve theirmarks and also touches on their welfare.

DrugsBruintjies also said the career exhibi-

tion was organised for their career ad-vice.

“It helps them to dream big and havea well informed career choice,” she said.

Schafer, who mixed English and Xhosafor her speech, encouraged learners tostay away from substance abuse andgangstarism.

“There are many people who havepushed their way to success regardless oftheir background. Nothing is impossibleif you set your mind to it. I urge you towork hard in your studies. Ninakho uku-fezekisa amaphupha enu (you can makeyour dreams come true). It is also impor-

tant to become aware of opportunitiesavailable out there. We need to encourageentrepreneurship. This is an importantevent,” Schafer said.

Tiki encouraged learners to shift theirfocus to the things that will see them be-coming successful in future.

She said being known for beingnaughty at school will never take themanywhere in life.

No peer pressure“You can be a member of a known

group of naughty learners, but I can tellyou that one of you knows what he or shewants in life and that one person will goall out to study on his or her time. It isvery important to know what you wantto become in future and go all out toachieve it regardless of your backgroundsituation,” Tiki said.

Tiki also encouraged learners to applyfor bursaries when they are still in highschool, because it becomes a bid difficultto get one when already in tertiary.

She said learners should ask for any as-sistance when they do not know some-thing.

Thandabantu Duna, programme man-ager at False Bay College, also gave hiswords of encouragement to the learners.

“Never undermine your capabilitiesbecause you coming from the township.Go for what you want. Laziness is killingour people these days. If you are lazy tostudy, you fail and you create problemsthat were never there. Do not mislead oneanother, but you need to positively influ-ence one another,” Duna said.

Motlodi Sesmane, 19, one of thelearners who attended the exhibition,said it was worth the while to attend be-cause it was.

More cops onthe roadsThe Traffic Service Department is on trackto add 90 more men and women in blue toits ranks in this financial year.

Last week, the City’s Mayoral Commit-tee recommended the approval of the Ad-justments Budget for 2015/16 which in-cludes just under R40 million for the ap-pointment of new traffic officers.

The Safety and Security Directorate re-quested R26,7 million for the appointmentof 60 officers, motivating that the increasein staff will result in an increase in thenumber of contraventions enforced, whichwill in turn lead to more fines being issuedand paid.

It is envisaged that the expenditure willbe absorbed by an increase in revenuefrom traffic fines (R19,6 million) and im-poundment fees (R7,1 million).

Mfuleni motorists have been warnedby police to refrain from picking upprostitutes along the Old Faure

Road, after an increase in robberies and hi-jackings in the area.According to SAPS there was an upsurge

of crime in the area and that men were oftenthe main target.“They must refrain from picking up the

prostitutes and drive into the bushes, be-cause they become victims of robberies, as-sault, murder and hijacking, especiallywhen there is a disagreement about pay-ments for services rendered,” said policespokesperson Captain Nomathemba Muav-ha.She said that in the latest incident, a man

was hijacked on Saturday after stooping atthe side of the road.“The victim alleged that he was dropping

off workers at Bosasa Temporary Housing,when a male approached him and asked for

a lighter. After that he was pointed with afirearm and told to drive to Khayelitshaand was later locked in a shack,” she said.She said that fortunatley, the man man-

aged to escaped and rushed to the police toreport the matter.“His vehicle was recovered the same

night inNyangawith twooccupants, amaleanda female. The female confirmed that thevictim was there at Old Faure looking fortheir services, however the negotiationswent wrong,” she said.The suspects, 41 and 25 respectively,

were arrested for hijacking.“These victims always claim that they

pulled over the side of the road to urinate,or they stopped at the stop sign and some-one appeared from nowhere and pointedhim with a firearm or they were busy talk-ing on their mobile phone.Most of them have families or hijacked

with a company vehicle and they areashamed of what will come out,” she la-mented.

Tutu’s life now works of artA series of bright artworks featuring Arch-bishopDesmondTutuwere unveiled at CapeTown’s City Hall just as the national iconwas readmitted to hospital for a third timein recent months.This morning, his daughter Reverend

Mpho Tutu told journalists that his hospitalstay last nightwas “cautionary and not a cri-sis”.She said he was readmitted for an inflam-

mation – not related to his prostate cancer,neither to a previous infectionwhich causedhis last two admissions to hospital.Giant canvasses with pop art interpreta-

tions of some private moments from the 83-year-old cleric’s life were displayed in corri-dors at the Cape Town City Hall during astar-studded function – but were removedagain.Theartworkswill also be exhibited inNew

York and Rotterdam after being officiallylaunched in Cape Town later this year.

They include a picture of the Arch pray-ing in his chapel at home, another wherehe is joined at the chapel by his wife Leah,and one with newly elected president Nel-son Mandela in 1994.CapeTownbasedpopartistRichardScott

created thepaintingsbasedonphotographsby award-winning photojournalist BennyGool.Proceeds from sales of the work will be

split between the artists and the Desmond& Leah Tutu Legacy Foundation.It is unclearwhenTutuwill returnhome.

Crime: men vow to reclaim areaCrime: men vow to reclaim areaMBONGISENI MASEKO

Residents in Kuyasa, alarmed at the ris-ing scourge of crime in the area, haveresolved to take matters in their own

hands.“We are claiming back our lives from skol-

lies,” they asserted.The men said they have had enough of

knife and panga-wielding juvenile criminalsrunning rampage in the township, brazenlystabbing, hacking and robbing innocent vic-tims of the possessions and livehoods.

The war cry came as Lufefe Mengela, 49,was admitted to the Khayelitsha DistrictHospital on Sunday after he was hackedwith a panga on his forehead and was leftwith a broken left hand after he was alleged-ly attacked by the gang of youths.

Two other residents also suffered in the at-tack, by the alleged marauders.

After hearing of this, a group of angry res-idents took to the streets and demolishedthree shacks said to be the homes of the al-leged attackers of Mengela.

According to the men, they have identifieda gang of about 10 delinquents who are benton causing havoc in Kuyasa.

Section 59 resembled a war zone on Sun-day, as the recalcitrants retaliated by attack-ing more elders-who had witnessed a rob-bery and reported them to the vigilantegroup- in the area.

“We saw them with a crate of beers whichthey robbed from a sheeben around here.They then attacked us with pangas andthrew stones at us,” Mangela said.

Another resident, 41, who asked not to benamed, is also nursing a gash in his face anda broken arm, courtesy of the alleged gang.

Mandla Dosi, a community leader, hasvowed that they will leave no rock unturnedin search of the robbers.

Dosi said the robberies are criminal activ-ities.

He said the reason they demolished theshacks was so that the boys-averaging 16years of age-to stay inside their homes, as op-posed to living on their own in backyard

shacks.“The skolies are threatening to kill some

community leaders whom they see as stum-bling blocks...we have taken a decission torestore order here, because the thugs arenow getting out of control. We want orderhere, and not under the hands of childrenwho terrorise us

We are going to succeed in that. We willnot stop the campaign,” Dosi said.

During the raid, Dosi said, they also dis-covered weapons, including a toy gun whichthey believed is used in the robberies.

None of the suspects were harmed though.Mongezi Gabelana of the local Sanco chap-

ter also raised his voice against crime in thearea.

“Residents are not happy at all. This iscriminal. We are saying thugs must moveout of this area,” Gabelana said.

Dosi also said police came and brieflylocked two residents in their van during thedemolishing of the shacks, but they weresoon released after some leaders talked tothe police.

Sergeant Nosiphiwo Mtengwana of Har-are police station, warned residents not totake the law into their hands..

Mtengwana said no criminal cases havebeen reported to them.

Mandla Dosi, (black jacket) the community leader, in Kuyasa, Khayelitsha, and other residents saythey will not stop their fight against crime in their area. PHOTOS: MBONGISENI MASEKO

Sound advise for yourfinancial problemsCEBISA MFENYANA

Most of us have a person in our life whocauses us to spend more than we can affordto.

Although we care for them, we cannotseem to avoid them.

Cebisa Mfenyana from Metropolitan,says: “The good news is that, while you maynot be able to change their behaviour, youcan learn to manage how you respond tothem,”.

Cebisa offers advice on dealing with thefinancial woes in our lives and has inventedcharacters to illustrate this.

Guilt-trip Gertrude “could be your moth-er, aunt, cousin or even brother-in-law”, ac-cording to Cebisa.

“Gertrude is that family member who isso experienced at the guilt trip that we auto-matically give in to their demands, simplybecause we feel we cannot say no.

Especially when we are doing so well (asthey love reminding us).

“While we may be responsible for lookingafter our family members,” says Cebisa, “bewary of those who always demand more”.

Decide how much you can afford to givewith a little leeway for emergencies, andthen set these boundaries with them.

“Nagging Nosi” is the child who cannottake no for an answer.

“As parents, we wish we were able to buyour kids everything their hearts desire,”says Cebisa.

“We should realise that not only does thisplace strain on our financial situation, it al-so doesn’t help them.”

Parents are urged to teach their childrenthe value of money and the benefits of sav-ing by letting them earn pocket money – andcan decide whether to pay them on a weeklyor monthly basis.

“The first few times they are likely toblow it immediately, but over time they willlearn the importance of budgeting and man-aging their own money,” advises Cebisa.

“Worse-off Wally” is the sibling who nev-er seems to get their act together, says Cebi-

sa.You may love him or her, but you can’t

understand why they won’t try to get a job.You find yourself responsible for all the

bills, which is slowly chipping away at yourpatience and your savings.

“Navigating financial issues with familycan be tricky,” admits Cebisa.

“Sometimes you have to practise toughlove and put some healthy boundaries inplace, or even an ultimatum.

Sit your sibling down and explain to themthat their behaviour is putting strain onyou and if they don’t make any effort fromtheir side, that you simply cannot continuehelping them financially.

Make sure you live up to your threat. Youdon’t want to be a dog with no teeth.”

“Flash-the-cash Farah” is the friend whoearns more than you and it always seemsas if she’s wearing a new outfit or goingshopping.

“The problem with a friend like Farah,”says Cebisa, “is that we feel pressurised tomatch their lifestyle – even if we can’t affordit.

She will invite you to go out for lunch andamovie, thenon thewaypop intoaboutiquestore and nag you to buy something.”

“When she invites you to join her shop-ping or for drinks, gently explain to her thatyou have not made provision for that inyour budget, and that you have a financialplan in place.”

A true friend will respect your priorities,and suggest that you spend time togetherdoing something that is fun but doesn’t costa lot of money.

“Borrowing Betty” is the friend who al-ways seems to be short of change - R5 here,R10 there.

Because it is such a petty amount, yougive in – everytime – and write it off. Afterall, who wants to look like a scrooge and askfor R5 back?

“Of course it is good to be generous, butif a friend like Betty is consistently takingadvantage of your kindness, you need to befirm,” advises Cebisa.

Maliviwe Mazeke, of The Holy Order of Shetaut Neter, with some of the parents of babieswho received clothing and food on Sunday in Khayelitsha.

Religious orderdonates to babiesMBONGISENI MASEKO

Lady luck smiled on a large group of ba-bies when their parents were presentedwith clothing and foodstuff in Site C lastSunday.The donation was made possible by theHoly Order of Shetaut Neter as part oftheir celebration of national Women’sDay.They were supported by the NonqubelaLink Mall’s Ackermans store and SettlersHigh School.Sebai Em Neter, regarded as spiritualteacher ofGod, and a leader of theHolyOr-der of Shetaut Neter Sacred Divinity, saidthe event was held in recognition of thewomen of South Africa who “showed uswhat to do when the governmentmisleadsand enslaves its patriotic citizens.”Zizipho Mbingeleli, 21, the mother ofSive Lizwi, 2, was so happy for the dona-tion.“I am so glad. I always go there whenthey call us, because I know that I wouldsurely get something.The grant for my child is not enough tocover food and clothes, so the donation

will really make a huge difference in mylife. I want to thank the donors,” she said.Mbingeleli is unemployed.Vuyiswa Diketso, 40, the mother of San-elisiwe Diketso, 1, praised the donors.“I feel veryhappy for receiving thedona-tion. I wish to thank thema lot. I amunem-ployed and it is very hard for me to buyeverything for my six children,”Neter said he was happy that the eventwas successful and also thanked Nonqu-bela Link Mall Ackermans store and Set-tlers High School for their support.“The main focus of this celebration wasto make impoverished babies happy,knowing that when we make the poor ba-bies happy their mothers automaticallybecome happy.But we realized that the babies are notonly ones suffering, but their mothers onthe other hand needed a special attentionin terms of our support,” Neter said.Neter also thanked all volunteers of TheHoly Order of Shetaut Neter for unceasingimpetus andmomentumevenwhen thingsseem impossible and also thanked theCityof Cape Town for providing the venue forthis noble event.

Gogos take tothe warm ovenTIYESE JERANJI

At a time when senior citizens are ex-pected to take their feet off the acceler-ator and enjoy the remainder of their

years; not so for a group of highly active Go-gos in Khayelitsha.For the lot are now part of the Neighbour-hood Old Age Homes(Noah), and boy, theyhave taken to baking like dough to oven.Previously relying only on state grantsfor their income, they will now be supple-menting that with Noah Loaves, a projectlaunched last Friday morning.Without the luxury of a nest egg, andwiththe unemployment rate among the youthvery high, the project has come as a God-send to them.This projectwillmake sure that the elder-ly never want for basic necessities.

CompetitionSponsored by the Ackerman Pick n PayFoundation, it gives Noah members the op-portunity to bake bread for sale to theircommunities as well as for their own use.Proceeds from the sale of the bread willgo to the individual bakers with a 30% con-tribution to the twoNoah centres situatewdin Woodstock and Khayelitsha.At the launch, 13 bakers competedagainsteach other in three categories: White breadwith raising agent, brown bread and whitebread. The winning bread recipes will beused by all bakers in the project.One of the judges, Jana van Sittert, saidthe loaves made for the competition weredelicious in different ways.“They all put amazing effort in. However,there were three things that we were look-ing for: The crust, taste and the texture ofthe bread. We had to make sure that the

bread was crusty enough, we tasted the fla-vour of the bread andwhether itwas of goodtexture, not overbaked or underbaked.”Billy Schlosz,67, and Roger Berry,68, bothNoah Woodstock residents, were crownedthe winners of the brown bread category.They knew their nutty wheat and honeyloaf was the winning one, they said.

Exciting project“We are excited. We were up against theexperts. I haven’t made this bread in 25years but I had no doubt it is the winningone. We are happy about the whole thingand it was a team effort so we did all thathad to be done.”Beauty Hlomendlini,65, said it was an ex-citing project. “It’s so true that someonelearns until they die. As old as I am I’m stilllearning and I’m so happy. We are verygrateful for this opportunity, it will alsohelp our families. This is such a life-chang-ing opportunity and it came when we neverthought,” she said.The Noah organisation has supportedstate pensioners for over 34 years by ena-bling them to live happy and socially andfinancially contributing lives. To improvethe organisation’s sustainability and to en-able its clinic members, club members andresidents to make extra income, Noah hasembarked on a number of social enterpriseinitiatives.Leonora Sauls, head of the AckermanPick n Pay Foundation, said it supportedsuch initiatives as it promoted sustainabili-ty and food security.“We are glad that such projects addressthe shortages of jobs and food and we reallytry and help out so that people will go backto trying to feed themselves and producefood for the communities,” she said.

Established as the highest profile roadrunning raceon the continent, theSan-lam Cape Town Marathon aims to im-

pact the economy this year by again boost-ing various sectors in the local community.The 42km race was relaunched last year

with a new headline sponsor and a visionof making a valuable contribution as aworld-class sports event.Achieving immediate success, the race

was recognised by global governing bodythe International Association of AthleticsFederations (IAAF).Having set a goal of being includedamong

the world’s most prestigious road races,this year’s event was recently awarded sil-ver status by the IAAF, the only marathonin Africa to achieve this status.“Ourgoal now is to achieve IAAFgold sta-

tus,” says Janet Welham, race director forthe Cape Town Marathon.“Ultimately, we want to be considered

among the best 42km races in the world.This event is more than just a road race; wewant to be able to leverage off it in orderto meaningfully promote and change, tocontribute towards the economy and makean impact on society. We have taken giantstrides, it is only our second year and wecan already see how much difference it hasmade.”The marathon’s executive committee

hopes to offer as much of a contribution tothe Western Cape across various sectors asother marathon and ultra-marathon racesaround the country have achieved.Races that have created amodel with this

approach, boasting entries of between 5 000and 23 000 runners, include:. Soweto Marathon. Gauteng Marathon. Durban City Marathon. Comrades Marathon. Loskop Marathon. Om die Dam MarathonIn the Western Cape, existing events in a

number of different sports have also estab-lished themselves as world-class festivals:.CapeEpicmountain bike stage race (1 200participants). Cape Town Cycle Tour (35 000 partici-pants). Two Oceans Marathon (28 000 partici-pants)The success of these events, which all

have entry limits for logistical and safetyreasons, hinges on attracting local and for-

eign interest. This, in turn, creates a spin-off effect by boosting multiple sectors, in-cluding tourism and transport.“We believe we can add to and support

what has already been achieved by existingevents in order to provide real support tolocal communities,” Welham says.

Sport as vehicle“Studies have shown sport and recrea-

tion can be used as a vehicle to provide asignificant financial boost. We are confi-dent we will continue to achieve this goalas the race expands.”Research presented at last year’s inaugu-

ral Cape Town Peace Conference, held onthe sidelines of the Cape Town Marathon,showedmajor opportunities existed to posi-tion sport and recreation as a sector witha comparative advantage in economicgrowth. The research also showed the po-tential to increase employment and socialdevelopment.“The actual impact of sport and recrea-

tion is largelyunknownandvastlyunderes-timated,” the findings stated.However, a 2011 recreation study by the

City of Cape Town found the participationrate of adults in the city in sport and recrea-tionwas 27%,andparticipation trendswererelatively low compared to other provinces.Despite the lowrate of activity, the contri-

bution of sport and recreation to the West-ern Cape economy was estimated at R8bnper year.This showed the tremendous potential of

high-profile, mass participation sportsevents.

Sport touristsSport and recreation could also be direct-

ly linked to tourism trends, the Peace Con-ference found, with a large number of peo-ple visiting the province and other areasaround the country as sport tourists.South Africa has previously hosted nu-

merous successful major internationalevents, including the RugbyWorld Cup, AllAfrica Games, Cricket World Cup and theFifa Soccer World Cup in 2010, which soldabout 3.1million tickets.All these events attracted fans and visi-

tors from around the globe, and their suc-cess created a springboard for annual localfestivals hoping to create similar interest.The second annual Cape TownMarathon

will be held on Sunday 20 September.

This year’s Sanlam Cape Town Marathonon 20 September hopes to build on lastyear’s success, which saw the event raiseover R350 000 for charity.
