THE DA in the Free State is anxiouslyawaiting the tabling of damning reportsconcerning crumbling service delivery inthe Free State Department of Health.The expected reports are from the
South African Human Rights Commis-sion (SAHRC), the Department of Labourand the Department of Public Serviceand Administration. The reports aboutthe Free State Department of Healthfollowed a public outcry about thedepartment’s service delivery.Mariette Pittaway, DA member in the
Provincial Legislature, says last Tuesday(03/03) they received correspondencefrom the SAHRC stating that it hasconcluded its investigation into the stateof the Free State Department of Health.“The report is said to be in the processof being finalised,” says Pittaway.She says the DA approached the
SAHRC to investigate the department inJune last year after Health MEC DrBenny Malakoane and Premier AceMagashule allegedly failed to acknow-ledge that the public health services inthe province are in crisis.Pittaway says both the national
Departments of Labour and PublicService and Administration haveinvestigated the department and theirrespective reports are expected to betabled in Parliament shortly. “Prelimi-nary media reports on these investiga-tions corroborate the findings of the DA,which has waged a difficult battle toensure delivery of quality public healthcare in the province for almost twoyears now. The DA is anxiously await-ing the tabling of these reports. The DAin the Free State has campaignedtirelessly for MEC Malakoane to befired.“We trust that these reports will
motivate Magashule to finally admit hisfailure in appointing Malakoane to hisexecutive. We are hoping for a new startfor public health in the Free State. Thepeople of this province deserve better,”says Pittaway.
The Treatment Action Campaign (TAC) inthe Free State has since last year also beencampaigning for the firing of Malakoane,who was retained as MEC when Magashuleappointed his new cabinet in May last year.Magashule reasoned that the decision toretain Malakoane was to enable him toimprove the state of the Department ofHealth after he had initially replaceddeceased Fezi Ngubentombi who had diedin a car accident late in 2012.
The crisis crippling the Free StateDepartment of Health saw fed-up nurses athospitals stage protests, some embarking ona go-slow, while at the Bongani RegionalHospital in Welkom they downed tools.Unhappy nurses lament the department’sfailure to provide essential equipment toenable them to do their work.The campaign for drastic change in the
trouble-ridden department has been fuelledby doctors in Free State hospitals, whowrote devastating accounts, published onGroundUp (groundup.org.za) in February,detailing what’s happening and tellingstories of what can only be described as adepartment in crisis. In GroudUp, Doctorswarn that many hospitals are teetering on
the brink of collapse, with minimaldoctors and nurses Some of the bestspecialists in the province have resigned– with Malakoane only taking actionafter 20 did so.Mondli Mvambi, spokesperson of the
Free State Government, says Malakoanewill give a full account to the publicnext week.Mvambi, says that a total of 1 170
appointments have been made in theDepartment of Health during the currentfinancial year. Appointments includeeight specialists, 42 medical officers, 44community service medical officers, 47professional nurses, 66 nursing assist-ants and 82 staff nurses.

THE evil that is racismwill remain with us inSouth Africa for manyyears to come. I say thiswithout any doubt,because if one speaks topeople in one’s circle offriends, one constantlyhears of incidentsconcerning this phenomenon.There is a tendency in South
Africa for people – of all races– to say one is overly sensitivewhen one says such and suchis racist.In the last two months, I
have heard stories of racismthat have left me somewhatsad, but angry.In the first case, which
happened early last month, awoman with a very sick childwas “refused” help at agovernment clinic in the FreeState simply because she waswhite.The callousness of the nurses
was unbelievable as the child,who was suffering from thedeadly tick-bite fever, was neardeath at the time and thenurses simply said there wasnothing they could do for thechild.The Free State Health
Department might be goingthrough a crisis (or not –depending on who you talk to),but I feel the least the nursescould have done was to dotheir best to ensure thewellbeing of the child, whocould not even walk at the timedue to the severity of hiscondition.Whatever happened to the
Hippocratic Oath?In the second incident, a
black woman lost her job at alaw firm after 29 years of loyalservice – over toilet paper.If you are thinking stealing is
stealing and theft cannot beexcused, then I agree with you,except she did not steal thetoilet paper. No, her crime wasthat she did not replace it inthe loo after she had used upthe last little bit.When a white colleague then
used the loo immediately aftershe did, she could not replenishthe toilet paper in time.What followed was a verbal
assault by the colleague, towhich she naturally respondedand which resulted in everyonein the office hearing theirshouting match. When theesteemed law firm’s partnersheard the commotion, theyintervened, admonishing theblack lady for trying to turntheir prestigious offices intothe South African parliament.Police were called and cases
and counter cases were openedand as you read this piece theblack employee, who held avery junior position in thecompany, had been dismissedwhile the other party have notreceived so much as a warning.The obsession with race is
such a part of the SouthAfrican fabric that manypeople do not even realise itwhen they say something thatis racist or has racial under-tones.Some intellectuals have
suggested that unless we havea frank and open nationaldialogue about race in thiscountry, it is highly unlikelywe will be able to overcomeracism and live in the Rainbownation envisaged by DesmondTutu and Nelson Mandela.Thisis a sentiment I agree with.)

THEY used to mesmerise football fans withtheir skills back in the day.On Friday (06/03) these veterans attended
a get-together and partied the night away atthe Sand du Plessis Primary School inHospital Park, Bloemfontein – not even thewet weather conditions could put a damperon their event.“These guys and I used to play soccer for
Old Greys in the 1980s. But we split up andformed another team called Maranata FC,”Charles Taylor, co-organiser of the event,told Express.“Since we stopped playing in the 1990s,
some of us have not seen one another. Sowe thought it would be cool to organise aget-together to have fun as old friends, withour families.“Unfortunately, we could not track down
some of the guys, as we don’t have theircontact details. It would have been evennice to have everyone here tonight. It isalso a pity that other guys whom we usedto player soccer with have passed away.May their souls rest in peace.”Back then soccer used to be known as a
sport for black men and rugby as a sportfor white men, but that did not preventCharles and those in his team from playingthe beautiful game.“That was never a problem for us. We
liked soccer and used to play against theblack guys. It was really fun. We enjoyedevery moment of it,” said Nicky Prinsloo,one of the organisers of the event.
“We formed multi-racial teams longbefore 1994. We used to play alongside guyslike Chippa Sefali, George Mokoena andmany others. We really had good teamsthen.”Taylor, who was born in Durban, said he
had never played rugby in his life.“There were no rugby teams where I had
attended school. So I have always beenplaying soccer. In Durban, we used to playsoccer against Indian and black teams. Welater had integrated teams, even before1994.”Prinsloo said he had been a very versatile
player in his playing days and had repre-sented the Free State on many occasions.
“I started off as goalkeeper, but alsoplayed in every position on the field,”Prinsloo explained.“However, I particularly played as a left
wing at Bloemfontein City.”The oldest member who attended last
week’s event was Paddy Clark. He is aged84 and is still going strong.

When it comes to choosing an academicprogramme to study that leads to goodemployment , be sure to look a toccupational programmes. This is theadvice from Ruan Venter, Registrar ofBoston City Campus and BusinessCollege.
According to Venter, students oftenoverlook occupational programmesbecause they are not aware of whatmakesthese programmes unique. 'As the nameindicates, occupational programmesprepare a student for a speci f icoccupation,' he elaborates. 'They are justvery focused and structured to get astudent as work-ready as possible.'Besides their specific focus, occupationalprogrammes have cer tain distinctiveadvantages, which Venter unpacks asfollows:
1. Register anytime – Due to the trainingmethodology, students can register foroccupational programmes at almost anytime. There are exceptions here and there,but most occupational programmes areopen for registration right through-out theyear. Students can start their studiesstraight away – unlike degree courses forexample, where times are strictly applied.
2. A National Senior Certificate orNational Certificate (Vocational) maynot necessarily be required – Registeringt o p a r t i c i p a t e i n o c c u p a t i o n a lprogrammes don't necessarily require amatric certificate and have different entryrequirements. These range from Grade 10(NQF Level 2) to Grade 12 (NQF Level 4),which means that if you don't have asenior certificate (NSC) you can still start
your studies and reach career aspirations.3. Open doors to higher learning –Occupational programmes make itpossible for you to start your studiesholding a Grade 10 certificate and end upwith a degree. This is because a studentbuilds credits over a period of time and canuse these credits to gain access to highereducat ion courses through creditaccumulation and transfer (CAT) orrecognition of prior learning (RPL).
4. Short courses – Most occupationalprogrammes can be completed within a12-month period. Once students pass allthe required tests and assessments, theyreceive their awards (certificates) and canenter the jobmarket.
5. Employment ready – Occupationalprogrammes are less theoretical in natureand tend to be more practically orientatedin their teachingmethodology and learningoutcomes. Some programmes aredesigned with a work-integrated learning(WIL) component, during which timestudents ge t hands-on prac t ica lexperience. Once students successfullycomplete their occupational programmes– the theoretical as well as the practicaltraining – they are completely ready towork in their chosen occupation. They canhit the ground running, as employers arefond of saying.
'Boston's provision of a wide range ofoccupational programmes is important inmeeting the institution's mission toprovide quality and relevant education andtraining to all its students and to create aculture of life-long learning, correctinginequalities and underscoring aspirations
as specified by the Council on HigherEducation,' says Venter. 'Boston'seducation offers serve to meet the needsof employees and professionals tocontinually upgrade their skills andknowledge. Fur thermore, our offersenable access to higher education tothose who were denied or may not meetthe formal requirements for higheducation.' Boston City Campus andBusiness College offers a variety ofoccupational programmes in fields suchas Heal th, Spor ts and Wel lness,Secretarial, Public Relations, BusinessCommunication and Service, to mention af e w. To f i n d o u t m o r e , g o t owww.boston.co.za and reference theprospectus on occupational programmesheaded with 'we know you have bigdreams.’
The prospectus describes the variousoccupational programmes offered by theinstitution, how students could articulatefromoneNQF –level to the next, how creditaccumulation and transfer works andanswers most frequently asked questionsthat prospective students may have.Prospective students and parents are alsowelcome to go to the Boston City Campusand Business College branch nearestthem and speak to a career advisor face-to-face if they need further clarificationand informat ion on occupat ionalprogrammes. The career advice service isoffered free of charge and with noobligation at 40 plus Boston branchesspread nationwide.

“EVIDENCE has shown that regularlyeating too much salt puts us at anincreased risk of developing high bloodpressure, which is the main cause ofstrokes and a major cause of heartattacks and heart failures,” says IreneLabuschagne, a dietician at theNutritional Information Centre of theStellenbosch University (Nicus).According to Labuschagne, 31,8% of
South Africans have high bloodpressure.“Food regulation is not enough to
reduce South Africans’ salt intake andeducating the public is crucial to thesuccess of salt reduction.”The main source of table salt is
sodium, which helps to regulate thebody’s fluid balance, but the amountpeople eat is far more than required.The World Health Organisationrecommends that adults eat less thanfive grams of salt (a teaspoon) a day.Internationally accepted guidelines
state that any food with more than600 mg of sodium per 100 g can beconsidered unhealthy. In South Africa,many products exceed this limit.This has prompted the South African
Department of Health to take alegislative route towards lowering saltcontent in foods. This will give foodmanufacturers until June 2016 tocomply with the first set of guidelines.Different products have been givendifferent time frames, allowingproducers to adapt their strategies.

The theme behind the deploymentof these heavy tanks is a historicalone. For example, the iconic Russiantanks, namely the T34, the T55 andthe T72, will all be operational.
These tanks reflect Russia’sinvolvement in Africa, particularlyduring the Cold War.
On the South African side, therewill be an Olifant Mk 1A heavy-bat-tle tank and an Olifant Mk 1B ofwhich only a small number weremade.
This heavy armour will be backedup by the fully-operational Mk IVSherman tank, dating back to theSecond World War, which has been
restored and is operated by theSandstone Heritage Trust who willhost the Stars of Sandstone 2015.
Finally, the army will bring itscurrent wheeled armoured fightingvehicle (AFV), the Rooikat, which isstill employed in active service withthe Defence Force.

REITZ. – The Petsana Residents Associa-tion (PRA) is going to the Union Buildingsin Pretoria to hand over its memorandumof demands to Aaron Motsoaledi, theminister of Health.The march will be held on Monday, 16
March.The members of the PRA have decided to
take action in this way, hoping for positivefeedback regarding the reopening of theNketoana District Hospital.Express Eastern Free State previously
reported on the PRA’s concerns about themedical ward of the hospital closing downand the patients being transferred to thePhekolong Hospital in Bohlokong nearBethlehem (“Petsana objects to ‘closed’hospital”, 21 January, and “Responseexpected today”, 4 February).The hospital has been integrated to form
the Phekolong Nketoana District HospitalComplex.According to Majola Dumezweni, the
chairperson of the PRA, the association hasbeen fighting for the reopening of thehospital, but has achieved no success withthe Free State Department of Health.The association submitted a memorandum
of grievances to the management of theNketoana Hospital late last year. Among thedemands were the reopening of the hospital,as well as the recruitment of nurses anddoctors.A response to the memorandum was sent
via fax on Thursday, 29 January. However,they were not happy with the response,Dumezweni says.The members of the association went on
another march on Monday, 16 February.They wanted Benny Malakoane, the MECfor Health in the Free State, to receive thememorandum, but he never showed up.They refused to hand over the memoran-
dum to the person to whom the task hadbeen delegated.“These people are taking us for a ride. We
are not playing games here. We are fightingfor the lives of our people. How could theydecide to make the hospital a complexwithout consulting the community?”Dumezweni says.According to a statement by the Free
State Provincial Government, a decision
was taken early in 2000 to complex thehospitals. It further states that this wasintended to, among other things, improveefficiency and effectiveness, as well as tofacilitate the sharing of resources.Dumezweni says they are going to the
main head of the Department of Health andpromises radical, robust action should theyget a negative response from the minister.“The ANC government is not happy to see
people following the right channels. Theyonly come to the party when there is bloodinvolved. And we will follow that route ifwe have to. We want that hospital open.”Dumezweni says the PRA has the support
of the Treatment Action Campaign (TAC)and they are hoping to join them on the dayof the march. “People are willing to donatemoney for transport and we are makingarrangements,” Dumezweni says.

GETTING an innovative firm off theground or expanding it requires money,but financing SMEs is a risky proposi-tion for financiers.To solve this, South Africa needs more
funders, investors and banks willing totake the risk, and South Africanentrepreneurs need a better understand-ing of investor and funder concerns inorder to be able to provide assurancesabout the soundness of their proposal.Access to finance has been singled out
as the major challenge impeding thesurvival and growth of start-up andseasoned SMEs.The ability of SMEs to grow depends
highly on their potential to invest inrestructuring and innovation. And allthese investments require capital.The National Small Business Chamber
(NSBC) is dedicated to the success ofsmall business in South Africa.To this end, the NSBC is gearing up to
host the seventh My Business ExpoJoBurg, now the largest event of its kindin the world.This is a small business and entrepre-
neurial extravaganza, which sees thou-sands of delegates from all over SouthAfrica attending.Taking place at the Gallagher Conven-
tion Centre, Midrand, Johannesburg, onThursday (12/03), My Business Expo alsofeatures the all-important Access to
Finance Indaba,“There is a host of learning opportuni-
ties to be had at My Business Expo,” saysMike Anderson, founder and CEO of theNSBC.In particular, the range of top-of-the-line
seminars offers SMEs invaluable practical,how-to advice on a range of criticalbusiness topics around accessing finance.Topics include credit wellness, tips andstrategies to financial freedom, what SMEsneed to do, to access finance, what thefunders are looking for, Different types offunding, different types of lenders, whypeople aren’t getting finance, How tobecome a dream candidate for funders,Business rescue: turning around a finan-cially distressed business.Access to the Finance Indaba 2015,
powered by the National Small BusinessChamber (NSBC), is aimed at unravellingthe complexity of accessing finance forsmall businesses – designed to encourageSMEs to think about different strategiesof fund-raising for their business.My Business Expo and Access to

YET another modern and appealinggetaway facility has been added in thealready exciting range of outdoorfacilities owned by the Department ofEconomic, Small Business Development,Tourism and Environmental Affairs(Destea) in the Free State.After being closed for almost three
years, the old dilapidated rondavels atthe Maria Moroka Resort have beentransformed into six wonderful chaletswith a magnificent view of the ThabaNchu mountain.The resort, ideal for rejuvenating
sunrises and memorable sundowners,will be officially opened by the FreeState premier, Ace Magashule, onThursday (12/03).Talking about the Free State tourism
potential, MEC for Destea, MosebenziZwane, always says: “The biggestchallenge and our own undoing, I wantto believe, is that we do not aggressivelymarket the resources at our disposal.“In the Free State we always look for
short-term gains instead of investingtime and resources for long-termbenefits.”

PSALM 51:1-2: “Have mercy uponme, O God, according to thy lovingkindness: according unto themultitude of thy tender mercies blotout my transgressions. Wash methoroughly from mine iniquity, andcleanse me from my sin.”Our achievements are not
dependent on our efforts, but onGod’s loving kindness.What brings pride is when we
attribute our achievements to ourown effort. Mercy is God’sproperty.
There are different forms ofmercy; there is a multitude ofGod’s tender mercies, there is alsosure mercies of David.The sure mercies of David are
insured and guaranteed. Our Godwears a coat of many colours.The scripture says “ . . . accord-
ing unto the multitude of thytender mercies.”This means there is a mercy
that is not tender but harsh.Even as humans, when we
forgive a person we follow up thatforgiveness with a gift to show tothe person that they are forgiven.
So was the case of the prodigalson who received mercy and acelebration was given on hisaccount.As children of God, we must
speak the truth or we will ruinGod’s plan for our lives.Those who receive mercy are
those who speak the truth. Psalm
51:6 says, “Behold, thou desiresttruth in the inward parts: and inthe hidden part thou shalt makeme to know wisdom.”Speak the truth and walk
humbly before God.Truth and mercy walk together.We cannot receive mercy
without speaking the truth.Speaking the truth sets us freefrom guilt and also from the sincommitted.Once we speak the truth and
repent, we should not go back tothat sin.The prodigal son never went
back after he had repented.Mercy, grace and the loving
kindness of God sustains us.We should set ourselves free
from the prison of condemnation.God has mercy on us, yet we
have not forgiven ourselves.Prayer Point: Lord, do not look
at my past. Have mercy on me.Whatever blessing I have lostthrough my sin, weakness,wickedness, or ancestral spirit,restore them back to me ahundred times, in Jesus’ name.)WoW: “When the Lord comes,your load goes.” X Tim Omotoso

} Dr Nicola Loaring
ASTRONOMER Dr AlexeiKniazev from the South AfricanAstronomical Observatory(SAAO), together with collabora-tors from the LomonosovMoscow State University, DrVasilii Gvaramadze and DrLeonid Berdnikov, have recentlydiscovered a new example of anincredibly rare kind of starknown as a Luminous BlueVariable (LBV) star.Out of the billions of stars
mapped in our skies, only 16confirmed Luminous BlueVariable stars are known to date.The star, named WS1, is the
latest addition to this incrediblyrare group of stars. LBV starsare of interest to astronomersbecause they are extremely oldstars which may soon die andblow apart in a supernovaexplosion, one of the mostpowerful explosions in theuniverse.Just like humans, stars do not
live forever. Once their fuel hasrun out they stop shining anddie.Stars that are much more
massive than the sun end theirlives in powerful supernovaexplosions which can outshineall the other billions of stars intheir galaxy put together.We never know when or where
one of these explosions will takeplace, but we can keep an eye onthose stars most likely to gosupernova in the near future:Luminous Blue Variable stars.LBV’s represent a stage in theevolution of very massive starstowards the end of their life.For stars with initial masses of
between 20 to 25 times that ofour sun, the LBV stage occursjust before the star dies in aspectacular supernova explosion.For even more massive stars,
they pass through the LBVphase slightly earlier in theirlifetimes, but those stars toowill eventually die in a superno-va explosion.LBV stars are much hotter
and, therefore, more luminousthan our sun.They are some of the most
luminous stars known, withbrightnesses ranging from 250 000to 1 million times brighter thanour sun. As a consequence oftheir high mass, they evolve veryquickly and have – astronomical-ly speaking – short lifetimes.LBV-type stars have a total
lifetime of around a few millionyears and spend much less thanone million years in the LBVphase of their evolution. TheLBV phase can be thought of asa “stellar retirement” for the
most massive stars.The sun, for comparison, has a
total lifetime of around 9 billionyears (the sun is 4,5 billion yearsold now, and middle-aged).Because the LBV phase is soshort-lived you have to beincredibly lucky to catch a starat the LBV stage of its life. Thisexplains why they are so rarecompared with other types ofstar.LBV stars lose vast amounts of
mass as their upper atmospherestreams off into space in aso-called “stellar wind”.These stars undergo random
outbursts at their surfaces,spewing their outer atmosphereinto space.These outbursts cause varia-
tions in their brightness which isone of the key observational
signatures of such a star.Another consequence of theirimmense mass loss, is theformation of a bipolar or circularnebula, or cloud, around the starcomposed of material that hasbeen lost from the star’s atmos-phere. These nebulae are foundenveloping approximately 70% ofconfirmed LBV stars. EtaCarinae is a famous and well-studied example of a LBV starwith a beautiful bipolar nebula.As most LBVs are enshrouded
in a nebula, astronomers oftenlook for possible LBV candidatesby searching for such nebulae. In
the case of WS1, Kniazev andcollaborators were alerted to thepossibility that the star could bea LBV because they found in2011 that it is surrounded by acircular shell of material thatemits light at infra-red wave-lengths. This prompted them tomake follow-up optical observa-tions of the central star toconfirm whether or not the starwas a LBV.In 2011, using the Southern
African Large Telescope (SALT)they obtained a spectrum of thestar (akin to a fingerprint) andfound features in the spectrumtypically associated with LBVtype stars.However, this information was
not sufficient to confirm whetherWS1 was indeed a LBV. To dothis, astronomers needed toobserve the star over a long timeperiod to confirm whether itsvariability in brightness and inits spectral features matched thatexpected from a LBV type star.Kniazev and collaborators
continued to observe WS1between 2013 and 2014 using theSALT telescope to look forchanges in the star’s spectrum.They also monitored the star’sbrightness between 2011 and 2014using the South African Astro-nomical Observatory’s 1,9 mtelescope and combined theirobservations with publiclyavailable data spanning over 40years.By combining the information
from all their observations, theyfound that WS1 did indeedexhibit all the observationalcharacteristics of a LBV typestar and concluded that WS1 isan incredibly rare LuminousBlue Variable star.“We were very lucky to
discover major spectral andbrightness changes in WS1without having to wait for toolong,” says Kniazev.“With this discovery, we
unambiguously proved the LBVstatus of this star. We expect thatsubsequent spectral analysis willallow us to determine fundamen-tal parameters of WS1, forexample its temperature andluminosity. We also hope to findmore bona fide LBV’s usingSALT, which will help us tounderstand better the evolutionof LBV type stars and theirrelation to other types of mas-sive, old stars.”This discovery, published as a
Letter to Monthly Notices of theRoyal Astronomical Society bringsthe total number of LBV starsknown to date to 16.) Dr Nicola Loaring is theOutreach Astronomer ofSAAO.
New example of rare star discovered
THE Hubble Space Telescope image showing Eta Carinae, the most well-studied example of a LBV star.The star is surrounded by a bipolar (dumbbell-shaped) cloud called the Homunculus Nebula. The nebulawas partly formed frommatter ejected from the star’s atmosphere during an eruption which was viewedon earth in 1841 (though which actually took place around 7 500 years ago as light takes so long toreach Earth from the star). Eta Carinae, the central star, appears as the white patch near the centre ofthe image, where the two lobes of the Homunculus Nebula touch. Photo: Hubble Space Telescope/NASA

keep up with my car and housepayment. I had to change schools for
my children from private schools to government schools becausefinancially we were not stable anymore, but thanks to my in-law
who gave me this woman of God's number, she helped me to turnmy life around financially by giving me a magic ring which broughtback hope into my life. It cost me only R800 and for the first time
in my life I went into a casino with my wife and we used our magicto hit a jackpot. Now my house and car are paid off and my
children are back in private schools - now life is so wonderful, soin case you are looking for the best healer, please look no more.

batting perspective,” he said in Wellington,where they will play their Group B matchagainst the United Arab Emirates (UAE) onThursday.“Nobody, bar AB (De Villiers), took the
responsibility to take the team through.Guys got in but never carried the teamthrough. I am one of the culprits. I felt like Iwas in, but I threw my wicket away.”He says the batsmen’s lack of fight on
Saturday was disappointing, but that thefinal match against the UAE will be a goodopportunity to “get a few things right” aheadof the knock-out matches.

After 10 years of struggling, my husband isback at home after mama Linda showed memy enemies in a mirror . We are now ahappy, married couple - thank you, mamaLinda.
My husband stayed with his girlfriend for 10years. Without him I struggled to supportmyself and could not even pay ourchildren's school fees.
I visited traditional healers, but with no help. Then I heard of Maria Lindaon a radio talk show and my neighbour whom he helped and rescuedfrom black magic. I visited mama Linda and paid R200. He told me aboutmy future andmymarriage problems. He put amirror in a dishwithwaterand I saw the facesofmyenemies andmyhusband's girlfriend.He prayed for me and gave me holy water and oil to wash myself. Aftertwo days I saw results, my enemies confessed their wrong doingstowards me andmy husband left his girlfriend and come back home. I'mnowhappyafter visitingmamaLinda .

THE Mangaung Athletics Stadium inBloemfontein will be a hive of activitywhen the annual Free State ProvincialSecondary Schools Athletics Championshipstake place there this weekend.The two-day athletics meeting – which
will be hosted by the Free State SecondarySchools Athletics Association, in conjunc-tion with the Department of Sport, Arts,Culture and Recreation, the Free StateSports Science Institute (FSSSI) as well asthe Department of Education – starts onFriday (13/02) and ends a day later.Wimpie Lodewyk, chairperson of Free
State Secondary Schools Athletics, said itwas all systems go for them to host thisevent.“I’m so happy to say that preparations
are going very well for this event. I’m quitepositive this is going to be one of the bestchampionships that we have ever had,”Lodewyk told Express.“We are expecting between 1 600 and 1 700
athletes from 240 schools across theprovince who will be taking part in theevent. We will be using this event to select
athletes that will be representing theprovince at the annual South AfricanAthletics Championships later this year,”he said.Lodewyk commended their partners who
came on board to make sure the event wasa success.“We really cannot host an event of this
magnitute without having partners and allthe role players, because it is just toocostly. So I want to thank each and everyone who is making contributions to ensurethat this meeting is a success,” he said.Asked whether load shedding was not a
concern to the local organising committee,Lodewyk said: “We have already madeprovision for load shedding. We will be ableto handle any crisis should there be one. Sothere is no need to worry,” he said confi-dently.Entrance tickets will be offered at a
special, complimentary tariff of R50 peradult and R10 per learner.“Spectators have the dual opportunity to
watch the best athletics and rugby matchbetween the Toyota Cheetahs and theSharks at the same venue and day,”explained Lodewyk.

NAKA DROTSKÉ is adamant that theToyota Cheetahs will bounce right backfrom their disappointing VodacomSuper Rugby defeat against the Voda-com Bulls this past weekend.The Cheetahs’ two match-winning run
was ended by a 39-20 loss to theTshwane side in Bloemfontein lastSaturday (07/03).But Drotské, the Cheetahs’ coach, is
certain his side will soon get back totheir winning ways, starting with thisSaturday’s clash against the Cell CSharks at the Free State Stadium in theCity of Roses.“We are not pressing the panic button
yet. It is still early days. We have justplayed three matches and have won twoof them.“So we will definitely bounce back to
our winning ways,” said Drotské.“It is crucial that we beat the Sharks
in our next game this week before wego on tour.“I’m really confident we will beat
them.“But anything can happen in this
competition,” he said.Drotské’s words were echoed by the
team’s skipper, Francois Uys, who alsobelieves that the Cheetahs will returnto their winning ways sooner ratherthan later.“Losing against the Bulls was a
setback, but we will bounce back.“This competition is not a sprint, it’s
12 months of hard work and dedica-tion.“Like Naka has said, we had done
well before our match against theBulls, winning two games in a row.“Our own errors cost us the match on
Saturday.“But we’ll fix those mistakes ahead of
the next encounter,” said Uys.Following Saturday’s defeat the
Cheetahs have dropped to thirdposition on the South African confer-ence log and eighth on the combinedlog.They have amassed nine points after
beating the Sharks in Durban and theBlues at home last month.“I thought the Bulls played really
well. All credit to them.“Trailing 23-6 against a quality side
like them at halftime, it was alwaysgoing to be difficult to come back.“We had to play a little bit risky in
the second half in order to catch upand try to win the game. But it didn’tpay off,” said Drotské.“We are positive going forward. I’m
hoping that we will have Sarel (Pretori-us), Willie (Britz) and Heinrich (Brüs-sow) back for the Sharks game thisweek.“These three are crucial players for
us,” he said.Saturday’s match starts at 17:05.

THE struggling Super-Sport United have had thebetter of Phunya Sele Selein recent seasons, butWednesday’s (11/03) clashat the Free State Stadiumcould prove to be trickyfor Gordon Igesund’stroops. Matsatsantsa havelost two back-to-backmatches going intoWednesday’s fixture andthey have a mountain toclimb when they come upagainst a resurgentBloemfontein Celtic sidewho are unbeaten so farthis year.Siwelele appear to have
been revitalised underClinton Larsen, whoreturned to the Mangaungoutfit late last yearfollowing the sacking ofErnst Middendorp.Under the guidance of
Larsen, Celtic have played six matches. Theyhave won four, drawn one and lost one ofthose games – scoring nine times in theprocess while conceding only two goals.“We are expecting a tough game against
United after they lost their previous twomatches. They will be coming to us likewounded lions. But we are going to makethings difficult for them,” John Maduka,
stood a good chance ofwinning the Q3.“We have a good team
to compete with. But wejust need to concentrateon our game and take ourmatches one at a time. Ifwe win our next twoencounters against Unitedand Polokwane City, wecan win it,” he said.All eyes will be on
Celtic striker LeratoLamola, who has scorednine goals so far thisseason. He is the PremierSoccer League’s jointtop-scorer with CuthbertMalajila of MamelodiSundowns.So, Lamola will be
hoping to get his name onthe score sheet to increase
his goal tally. The Limpopo-born hitman willrely heavily on players such as MukukaMulenga, Musa Nyatama and ThapeloMorena to supply passes to him.On the other hand, United will be hoping
that striker Jeremy Brockie continues hisscoring form against Siwelele on Wednesday(11/03). The New Zealander has scored fourtimes in five matches since joining Matsat-santsa last December.He will be the man to watch for United,
but the likes of Kingston Nkhatha and ThusoPhala cannot be overlooked on the night.The kick-off is scheduled for 19:30.
United face tough battle

HE MADE MY BUSINESS TO GROW AND MYFINANCE TO BE CONTROLLED:
I have my own business for 15 years doing well andmaking a lot of savings, but things began turning badand started registering losses.My life began to fall apart,the banks were after my properties for the loans I hadfailed to pay. My wife and children left as I could nolonger take care of them. I visitedmany healers, but withno positive results. I heard of MR JACOB who hadhelped so many people, I visited him to read my pastand future - he charged me R150. I was shocked to find
out that my nephew was doing the black magic on me. JACOB cleansedme and a month later I began to see progress in my business with lots ofsavings. Am now happy with my family which had left me because Icouldn't support themanymore.
THANKS TO MR JACOB who saved my life.

problems jealousy, myhusband’s family were allagainst me. Luckily I cameacross Marria through a
friend. She helped me andshowed me my enemiesthrough a mirror for only
R200. She did miracles in my life. She told me all myproblems without mentioning anything to her. She showed me
the people who worked hard to see me suffering some ofwhich were my friends and relatives. She performed a specialprayer, washed away my bad luck and cleansed my home.
Gave me a love potion with a ring for my financial problems inless than five days, my husband was always by my side and
my enemies confessed and asked for forgiveness.Come and visit me at Northridge Mall.

Celtic manager, told Express.“We want to try and win all
our home matches so that wecan climb higher and higher onthe log. I believe we can finish
the season on fourth position if we keepwinning home and away,” he said.Celtic are sitting at fourth position on
Quarter Three (Q3) after collecting 13 pointsin six matches. They trail leaders MamelodiSundowns by three points. Celtic have agame in hand though, but that does notguarantee points.However, Maduka said he believed his side
CELTIC will rely on playerslike Mukuka Mulenga(right) to score goals whenthey face SuperSport Unit-ed at the Free State Stadi-um on Wednesday (11/03).
