Ama Ten Ten, as illegal music sellers are known in Thohoy-

andou, are not only stealing the livelihood of artists.

They have of late become very violent towards any-body who wants to stop them from running their illegal operations. Those on the receiving end includes artists, who have been at-tacked and injured while

trying to confis-cate their music, which is being copied and sold at below cost.

Not long ago, famous former disco star-turned-g o s p e l m u s i c s inge r Send-elani Dagada of the famous Christ Wor-s h i p H o u s e was assaulted

while trying to stop some sellers

from selling the famous

gospel ensemble’s music on street corners.This week on Monday, another famous

Tshivenda music artist, Phillip Nephawe, or Mutendas as he is known in music circles, became a victim when the Ama Ten Ten attacked him in broad daylight in a Tho-hoyandou shopping complex.

Nephawe (40) of Muraga village said he came across a man in Thohoyandou, who had a copy of his CD. The man pointed to a person who was selling CDs not far from where they were standing. “I confronted the man and wanted to see the CDs when he became violent and started to hit me with his fi st. Another man joined in and they beat me, using iron bars, while bystanders watched without helping me,” said Nephawe.

He said after the assault he went to the police, where he reported the matter. The police took him to the hospital, where he was admitted and stayed overnight.

“I am very angry. A person is selling my music illegally and the next moment he is attacking me for what is rightfully mine. We are not safe as artists; we starve because of these pirates and they make a killing out of our music,” said Nephawe.

He said he had spent a lot of time and money to complete the recording, but he has nothing to show for his sweat. He is worried that when these people are arrested, they are

ordered to pay a paltry fi ne of R100, which is nothing compared to the thousands they make by selling the pirated music.

“The courts should be harsh on them. They must impose sentences without fi nes. Maybe it will deter them from continuing their illegal trade,” added Nephawe.

He said the police were partly to blame for the rampant piracy because they see the music displayed on streets corners but do nothing about it. “The police should help us before it is too late, because we will be forced to take the law into our own hands. We do not want to see any pirated music here in our town”.

Businessman, record company owner and artist manager Johnny Khubana of JTK Entertainment reacted angrily to the incident. “We work very hard to make mu-sic that will satisfy our people, but people just use their computers to copy our music and sell it without our permission. How do people expect us to make an honest living?” said Khubana.

Thohoyandou police spokesperson Major Mashudu Malelo confi rmed the incident and urged artists not to confront the pirates but rather to notify the police, for their own safety. He also urged communities to work with the police in exposing the criminals. The police have opened an assault charge, he added.

2 10 August 2012 LIMPOPO MIRROR

Ridgeway Independent School outside Makhado (Louis Trichardt) was grateful when Mr Ragimana of the Makhado Municipality pitched up on 2 August to grade the dirt road to the school. They are all the more thankful for the favour, since the road does not actually fall under the local municipality. The condition of the road has caused a couple of accidents and tarring the road would be the ideal.

The police at Mphephu have invited residents to attend a war-against-crime campaign to be held in the space between the Dzanani Magistrate's Court and the Spar Supermarket at Biaba.

The event will start at 10:00 tomorrow (Sat-urday).

The spokesperson for the Mphephu police, W/O Netshidzati, pointed out that there has been a spate of housebreaking incidents in the area. “As the police, we feel we the need to address the issue and try to find ways to inform the community about the growing number of housebreakings,” said W/O Netshidzati.

“We need to combat crime by all means. People need to feel safe in their homes and feel confident that their business property is secure at all times.”

Youths and adults are encouraged to attend the event.

War against crime There was excitement in the air when several security students graduated after a year of studies. The 22 students from the EEL Protection Service College all received a certificate that is recognised by the South African Security Sector Education and Training Authority (SASSETA). The director of the college, Mr Abel Tshikota, encouraged owners of security companies in the Vhembe region to consider some of the graduates when hiring security guards for their companies. He complimented the graduates who worked very hard to accomplish their qualification and wished them the best for their future. The students acquired a General Security Protection Certificate, which is equivalent to a NQF level three of the Further Education and Training (FET) College. In the photo, Mrs Magodi and Mr Manenzhe show off their certificates.

The best players of the recent winter soccer tournament for schools received awards during a ceremony that took place shortly after the final whistle. In our photo are, from left to right ,Sipho Mudalana of Litshovhu (player of the tournament), Robby Munonoka of Jonathan Thifhulufheli (top goal scorer) and Tshimangadzo Masala of Jonathan Thifhulufheli (goalkeeper of the tournament).

A 54-year-old man from the Alldays area had to fork out a R50 000 fine after striking a deal with the State regarding the hunting of an elephant.

Steven Barber from the farm Weltevreden, situated in the Alldays district, appeared in the Louis Trichardt Regional Court on Monday on a charge of hunt-ing wild or alien animals. This charge relates to an incident in August 2006 on his farm.

According to information available, Barber played host to a group of Spanish hunters. During

their visit, an elephant hunt was arranged for them. Barber, who did not have elephant on his farm at the time, then apparently lured one of his neighbour’s elephants onto his farm.

It is said the elephant was chased through the fence with the help of a helicopter and then hunted.

As part of an alternative dis-pute resolution, Barber had to pay R50 000 to his neighbour, Mr Leif Eric Rampqvist. He also presented a letter of apology to Mr Rampqvist during his court

appearance.The R50 000 was paid, on con-

dition that Rampqvist pay it over to conservation organisations of his choice. According to Barber’s lawyer, the money has already been paid over to Rampqvist and he has made it known that he wants to contribute half of the money to the Endangered Wild-life Trust (EWT) and the other half to the Professional Hunters Association of South Africa.

The money paid to EWT will specifically go towards their rhino anti-poaching fund.

R50 000 fine after illegal elephant hunt

Free after a week in jail: Mulaudzi is facing three counts of rape.

Embattled Limpopo medical doctor Dr Jus-tice Mulaudzi, who has been in the cells for almost a week, sighed with relief after being granted bail.

Mulaudzi (48) of Makwarela Extension 3, who stands accused of raping a neighbour three times last year, was granted bail of R1 000 in the Thohoyandou Magistrate’s Court on Friday.

The rapes are alleged to have happened on three different occasions, in April, August and October 2011, involving a 33-year-old woman who belongs to the same church as Mulaudzi. In all instances, the doctor is accused of raping the woman while she was alone at her home.

Mulaudzi first applied for bail on Monday, 30 July, and his application, which took most of the day, was postponed to Friday 3 August. On Friday, Mulaudzi’s lawyer, Adv Anton Ramaano applied that he be released on bail as the charges he was facing would not stand up in court.

Ramaano said the time lapse between the al-leged commission of the rapes and the ultimate opening of the case, a period of almost a year, made one doubt that it had ever happened. He also advanced that the victim had not bothered to see a doctor in all three instances, which also casts suspicion.

He said that it was also suspicious as to why the victim had not screamed while being raped in all of the cases. He also mentioned that even after all the alleged rapes, no animosity existed between the families.

He said Mulaudzi is not a flight risk as he had not skipped bail and had attended court for all the charges he faced before. He mentioned that in the Louis Trichardt case, bail had not been opposed and that the Malamulele case had been withdrawn. He applied that Mulaudzi be released on R20 000 bail.

The State, led by Adv Christopher Burke, called a witness, Col Mzamani Hobyani, who indicated that Mulaudzi could be a flight risk, based on the severity of the charges he is facing. He said Mulaudzi was facing many serious charges, which might make him decide otherwise and abscond if he was granted bail. Hobyani said Mulaudzi had a tendency of committing offences when out on bail and that he could still do so if granted bail.

Burke asked that Mulaudzi not be granted bail because no exceptional circumstances existed that warranted bail. He said the accused could not be trusted and it would not be in the interests of justice to grant him bail.

In his ruling, Magistrate Sam Phakula said the accused was facing serious charges, which were sometimes accompanied by dreadful diseases. He said it was surprising that the victim had bathed and chosen not to report the matter within the stipulated 72 hours.

He said that the victim had not sought medi-cal attention in any of the cases. ''In the absence of all these, could the evidence be convincing? It leaves much to be desired,'' said Phakula. He indicated that the absence of these major factors cast some doubt on a successful prosecution. He also found no mention that the accused had at any stage interfered with state witnesses in any of his other cases.

He said even though the State and the Defence had agreed on R20 000 bail, after looking at the evidence, he found the amount to be too much. He granted Mulaudzi bail of R1 000, on condition that he should not interfere with witnesses and not commit a similar offence while out on bail.

The case was postponed to 5 September.After the granting of bail, the State indicated

its intention to ask for the cancellation of his R30 000 bail in the Makhuvha case.

Embattled doctor “not a flight risk” Happy Mpho gets blessed with triplets

Ms Mpho Mandiwana-Ratshitaka with her triplets, two boys and one girl.

Mpho Mandiwana-Ratshitaka is celebrating her gift of trip-lets.

Mpho (33), of Matangari Tshi-awelo, gave birth to two boys and a girl at the Donald Frazer Hospital on Friday. Speaking from the maternity ward on Monday afternoon, Mpho said she was ex-pecting one child when she left home on Friday morning.

"I was told that I would deliver twins af-ter I was assessed by the nurses at the hospital. I was surprised when the nurses later told me that another child was coming after I had given birth to two children," said Mpho.

She described her triplets as gifts from God.

Although she is un-

employed, Mpho says her fiancé, Bishop Tshishonga, a contract worker, is ready for the chal-lenge.

They already have a child, the eight-year-old Vhuthihi Tshis-honga.

Mpho, who is one of twins,

said she believed she had inher-ited the genes from her mother, Ms Sarah Muofhe.

The acting CEO of the hospi-tal, Mr Nditsheni Mathule, said that they were happy that they had managed to help Mpho to de-liver her triplets in a normal way.

lassGGRRThe suspect, Rudzani Ndou. (Photo supplied.)

The Waterval Magistrate's Court in Limpopo has postponed the rape case against the 34-year-old Rudzani Ndou.

Ndou is facing three cases of rape that allegedly took place in the Makhado area.

The suspect is also a suspect in six cases of rape that occurred in Mam-elodi East, outside Pretoria.

When the suspected arrived at the Waterval Magistrate's Court, he was in chains.

Ndou, of Mpheni village, alleg-

edly raped three girls, one aged 15 and the other two aged 18, in the Makhado area.

The incidents allegedly happened last year and earlier this year.

The case against Ndou was post-poned to 31 August for a formal bail application and further investigations. He remains in custody.

Police say the suspect allegedly raped at least nine victims in the past years.

DNA tests have allegedly linked him to six cases in Mamelodi East.

No bail for alleged serial rapist

SAPS to close all illegal businesses

Some of the liquor confiscated by the SAPS.

The days of unregistered busi-nesses and illegal shebeens are numbered, said the South Afri-can Police Service in Limpopo.

The SAPS, in conjunction with the Department of Economic Development, Environment and Tourism and the Limpopo Liquor Board, have declared war on il-legal spaza shops and unlicensed liquor outlets. Even in areas like Sinthumule and Kutama, spaza shops and illegal liqour businesses have been closed and the stock confiscated. However, some others still operate in the still of the night with the lights switched off for the police not to notice that they are continu-

ing to operate without a licence. Some illegal foreigners also have unregistered businesses all over the province and have become soft targets for criminals, said Brig Hangwani Mulaudzi, the provincial police spokesperson.

Working together with the Li-quor Board, the police have been seizing any amount of liquor found at an unregistered outlet, or those which do not comply with the requirements of the Liquor Act. “Illegal foreigners who run illegal businesses tend to keep substantial amounts of money on their premises because they do not have access to banks in the country, making them vulnerable

targets for opportunistic crimi-nals,” Mulaudzi pointed out. “To date, 130 illegal spazas have been closed all over the province.”

A total of 60 illegal liquor outlets have been forced to close shop. A total of 57 fridges have been seized, 106 illegal foreign-ers have been arrested and some 484 suspects have been arrested on various charges, ranging from rape to common assault, with il-legal shebeens and unregistered spaza shops being the prime hot spots. The suspects will appear in various courts across the province soon. “We are not going to compromise the safety of our residents by accommodat-

ing the minority who live on the wrong side of the law,” said the fuming Limpopo Pro-vincial Commissioner, Lt Gen Mpembe. “All businesses must be reg-istered and obey the set regulations.”

The SAPS has raised a concern that illegal shebeens are selling liquor to underaged youths, which influ-ences the rate of rapes and robberies which the province has been experiencing of late.

The MEC for Sports, Arts and Culture, Ms Dipuo Letsatse Duba (left), hands over a trophy to the player of the season, Mongedzi Bobe, with a board member of Leopards, Ms Dikeledi Magadzi, looking on.


Rewards for playersBlack Leopards awarded prizes to the best players of the previous season during the team’s awards ceremony at the Meropa Casino last Wednesday evening.

Sport, Arts and Culture MEC Dipuo Duba encouraged the recipients to work for hard the development of the country as they are seen as ambassadors of the entire province. "It is a known and undisputable fact that football elsewhere and in this province brings economic spin-offs to people, even outside the football trade. The continued participation of our team therefore con-tributes to the much-needed economic benefits to our people,” she said.

Leopards’ chairman, Mr David Thidiela, extended a word of gratitude to his players who had punched above their weight during the CAF Confederations Cup by reaching the last 16 stage.

The players who received awards are: Young Player of the Season (R20 000) - Ernot Dzaga; Black Leopards special award (R20 000) - Rod-ney Ramagalela; Record-breaker award (R30 000) - Nkosiyabo Xakane, who played in all 30 league matches; Black Leopards chairman's award (R100 000) - Manager Sam Khaphathe; Players' player of the season (R20 000) - Hum-phrey Khoza; Black Leopards player of the season (R40 000) - Mongezi Bobe, the captain of the team.

For seven years, he and his family laboured selfl essly in pursuit of better living conditions in his community. Mr Jackson Makhavhu (82) of Shanzha village constructed a 6,5km stretch of road in a rocky and mountainous area between Shanzha and Manyuha village.

The village had been cut off from the rest of the world because there was no road, and services were unheard of in the area. Using chisels, hammers, wheelbar-rows, spades and picks, the family worked

An ugly scene developed at the Donald Fraser Hospital, when a professional nurse attached to the Mutale Mobile Clinic was allegedly attacked by a medical doctor in the parking lot of the hospital.

A furious and emotional Ms Selina Sikhubuni of Tshilapfene outside Thohoy-andou said she was on a duty call at the hospital to collect medication last Friday, when the incident happened. “I parked my vehicle in a parking bay and there were other cars, including a BMW. I went to the dispensary. While still packaging my load, I received a call from an anonymous caller, who swore at me, telling me I had closed the way for him. Due to the nature of our heated conversation, I was forced to end the call,” she said.

She said colleagues there told her the caller was a doctor “who is known for his rudeness”. Sikhubuni said she rushed outside and, before she could utter a word, the furious man once again swore at her and even slapped her on the chest. “He was just like a raging bull and very emotional. He forced me to apologise for what I had done and I had to oblige because anything could have happened at that moment,” she said.

She reported the matter to the risk sec-tion of the hospital, where she was advised to put her report in writing. “I could not do that as I was still very hurt. I went to the nearby Matatshe Satellite Police Station, where I tried to lay a charge but was not

as a unit for seven years, even though they did not have a car themselves. Despite having done all this for no pay, they were not acknowledged for their good deeds, until the local tradi-tional leader realized their contribution.

This week was a spe-cial one for the family. Local traditional leader Chief Shavhani invited the family to the royal

palace, where their work was acknowl-edged in the presence of the community. They were handed a certificate and a framed photo in recognition of their work. “This man has done more than any other citizen of this village. Manyuha was like an island which could not be reached. It took the village backwards in terms of development,” the chief said.

Shavhani said they were planning to have a big function where all who contrib-uted in one way or another in development

could be acknowledged. ‘’We were also motivated to give him this special honour before the function, because of his ailing health.”

An excited Makhavhu said it was out of love for his community that he decided to embark on such a project. “I never ex-pected anything when I started this road. I only thought about development in this area,” he added.

“This is more than all the money one can get; it gives you self-fulfi lment,” he said.

Chief Neckson Shavhani has a light moment with the Makhavhu family after they were acknowledged for the good work they have done for the community.

Retired driver Vhavenda Vho Ndzekiseni Makuya (centre, front) who worked as a driver for his whole career, said dedication, respect and hard work were what kept him going in his successful career in government service. Makuya, who has had an accident-free record throughout his career, served his last years at the Thohoyandou Children´s Home. He was bidden farewell during a function held in his honour at the centre on Friday. Among the guests was Chief Ravhalitsheni Sumbana, who worked with him for years, government offi cials and other colleagues. In the photo is Makuya, his wives and some of his colleagues.

allowed to do so by the police. They said it would not help as he would only be fi ned.

“They asked me silly questions, which added to my frustrations. I felt as if every-one was against me. They told me I would just be wasting my time as the case would not go anywhere. I felt very hurt because I thought that the police’s work was to arrest criminals and not to conduct trials,’’ she said. “In the many years I have been with the department, I have not experienced such an incident. It has made me lose trust

in people and I even fear going to work. I always thought that work was the safest place to be and now I think differently. I always thought that doctors were decent people, but the whole incident has left me with second thoughts,” she added.

Limpopo MEC for Health, Dr Norman Mabasa condemned the attack in the strongest terms. “We are going to conduct an internal enquiry, and whoever is in the wrong will face disciplinary action,” said Mabasa.

An angry Ms Selinah Sikhubuni says she wants to see justice done.

Rangers in court for assaulting villager

Acknowledgement for struggle hero

Six game rangers employed at Umzingwane farm outside Beit Bridge appeared in court for allegedly assaulting a local villager, whom they accused of buying the meat of game poached from their employer’s property.

Peter Nyathi (34), Wiseman Sibanda (44), Bas-samo Sibanda (27), Jackson Sibanda (43), Knowl-edge Nare (28) and Mthombeni Moyo (29) pleaded not guilty to charges of assault when they appeared before local magistrate Mrs Auxilia Chiumburu on Friday last week.

The case was postponed to 4 September and the

Freedom and democracy came at a great cost for South Afri-cans. Some families suffered immense pain and some even lost the lives of their loved ones in pursuit of freedom for all.

A large number of those who contributed to the fi ght for free-dom are long forgotten and the present generation knows noth-ing about them. One such woman is leader Elsie Nephalama of Mbaleni, who was killed during a march against ritual killings in the Vhembe region. She was bur-ied at the old Mbaleni Cemetery.

Last weekend, members from

the Raluswielo ANC Women’s League in Thulamela gathered at Mphaphuli Secondary School to remember her. This was part of the Women’s Month activities by women in the area.

The women cleaned the graves and also laid wreaths on Nepha-lama’s grave. Members of Neph-alama’s family were presented with certifi cates, acknowledging her contribution to the liberation of this country.

From the graveyard, they pro-ceeded to Mphaphuli, where a formal programme was held. The deputy chairperson of the branch,

Ms Mashudu Mundalamo, said Nephalama had died on duty while fi ghting for the liberation of the country. “She has done a lot for us; we will always look up to her selfl ess leadership and follow in her footsteps,” she said.

Nephalama’s husband, Mr Nndwamato Makuya, said it had been a long and painful 22 years after his wife was shot and killed by the police. “The ANC only came and buried my wife and since then, she has been for-gotten. We were very surprised when it was proposed to us that she be honoured,” he added.

The prosecutor, Mr Reason Mutimba, said that on 30 May, at around 15:00, the six men teamed up and drove to the victim’s homestead at the neigh-bouring village of Tshamnangana. On arrival, they allegedly confronted the complainant, accusing him of having bought the meat of a kudu killed at Umzingwane Farm.

The victim denied the allegations and the accused allegedly assaulted him with sticks. The complain-ant sustained bruises all over his body.

The court heard that, soon after assaulting him, the six men took the victim to a local clinic where he was treated and discharged. A report was made to the police and the six men were arrested.

six accused remain in custody.

Agriculture

Top honours for rural farmer MercyAs part of the women’s month celebrations, a rural female farmer, Ms Mercy Ram-buda, won the Musina Female Farmer of the Year award at an event that was held Malale Community Hall on Friday.

Rambuda went home with a recognition certificate and R4 000. She is a well-known tomato farmer, who exports her products to neighbour-ing countries like Zimbabwe, Mozambique and Botswana. The event was organised by the Limpopo Department of Agriculture.

The Female Farmer of the Year competition was started by the government in 1999 to recognise and increase the vis-ibility of women farmers and to pay permanent tribute to the women of South Africa.

Speaking during the event, the Chief Whip of Musina Municipality, Cllr Simon Ma-damalala, said the event marked a very important occurrence on the calendar of the agricul-tural sector and it is important to celebrate the success and achievement of female farmers in Musina. He said the Female

Farmer of the Year Competi-tion was an instrument through which women’s contribution to the fi ght against poverty was be-ing recognised and encouraged. “This competition acknowl-edges women as the lifeline of society and the custodians of household food security, whose role is critical in improv-ing the quality and quantity of agricultural products through improved delivery, innovation and excellence.”

He added that the Female Farmer of the Year project strived to build a truly united non-racial, non-sexist and pros-perous South Africa. “We are happy because this programme complements other government initiatives to fi ght poverty, cre-ate jobs and build an economy that benefits all our people. Combined with other agricul-tural initiatives, the Female Farmer of the Year project has the potential to reverse the current status of women in the country’s agricultural sector and in society at large and to eradicate poverty and to stimulate further economic development in our quest for

equality and prosperity.”He said Musina Municipal-

ity’s strategic goals, for the current term of offi ce, entailed increasing agricultural pro-ductivity on arable land in the municipal area. “This will be achieved through a pro-gramme of intensive group and individual extension support services, focusing primarily on land-reform benefi ciaries and on transfer of skills from estab-lished commercial farmers. We are aware of the critical need to unlink women’s empowerment to the narrow feminist agenda that seeks to benefi t only a few. This suggests that we need to explore other tools at our dis-posal together to ensure that the agricultural sector does benefi t the women of Musina, while simultaneously enhancing the lives of all our people.”

After winning the prestigious award, Rambuda said she was humbled to note that her good work was being recognised by the government.

“Winning this competition was just a bonus. I would also like to encourage other wom-en, especially those who are

unemployed, to take farming seriously. I have no doubt that I will represent Mu-sina women well at district competitions that will be held later this month.”

Other winners for different categories during the event are Mesdames Sa rah Phaswana (subsis-tence farmer), Rosi-nah Nevhutalu (small-holder), Muofhe Mu-laudzi (commercial) and Joyce Mukona (processor).

Tourism


350 International cyclists in Tour de TuliA total of 350 cyclists par-ticipated in this year’s Tour de Tuli charity cycling expedition, covering Zimbabwe, South Af-rica and Botswana. The event took place from 2 to 6 August.

The cyclists started at the Northern Tuli Game Reserve in Botswana and entered Zimbabwe the following day. They spent three days at Kuduland Safari Area outside Beit Bridge, before winding up the tour at Mapun-gubwe National Park in South Africa on 6 August.

The cyclists, drawn from An-gola, Australia, Botswana, Brit-ain, Germany, Greece, Israel, the United States, Zimbabwe, South Africa and the Netherlands, had the opportunity to transverse the Greater Mapungubwe Trans-Frontier Conservation Area (TFCA), a vast safariland jointly shared by the three countries.

The event co-ordinator, Mrs Sue Groatley of Children in the Wilderness, told Limpopo Mirror that the annual event, which was in its fourth year, was mainly aimed at raising funds for com-munities living in areas situated within the Greater Mapungubwe TFCA. Children in the Wilder-ness is an environmental, educa-tional and life-skills programme targeting the rural and vulnerable children in areas within the trans-frontier area.

Groatley said the cycling event was also aimed at marketing tourist attractions within the Great Mapungubwe TFCA. Last

year, the event attracted a total of 364 cyclists who participated in the event.

Children in the Wilderness is coordinating the project with the assistance of the governments of the three participating countries. Groatley said this year’s event was a great success, adding that they would continue holding it as a way of raising funds to assist disadvantaged children living along the Great Mapungubwe TFCA. “We will also spend most of the funds raised from this charity cycling expedition to promote environmental and wildlife management projects in the three countries.

We want to educate communi-ties living in areas surrounding the conservation area about the importance of preserving and protecting wildlife for future generations,” she said.

The event organisers also

pledged US$3 000 for the con-struction of a new primary school at Maramani village outside Beit Bridge. They also donated 300 soccer balls and 500 school bags to children from the small community.

The Beit Bridge Rural District Council also received US$1500 from the organisers, which will be channelled towards devel-oping more tourism products within the Greater Mapungubwe TFCA. “We are very grateful to the people of Zimbabwe for the hospitality they always give us during such events. We believe these tourists will go back to their countries and tell the real Zimbabwean story and promote this transfrontier park as the best tourist destination in the SADC region,” Groatley said.

The cyclists traversed more than 300 km over a period of five days.

Some of the participating cyclists of the Tour de Tuli take a breather at Maramani village soon after entering Zimbabwe.

Hundreds of prospective clients and other guests recently witnessed the official opening of the new Nedbank Personal Loans branch in Thohoyandou. The opening of the new branch forms part of the bank´s expansion programme, as a way of making banking more accessible to customers. In keeping with the bank´s values of giving back, Nedbank also donated two computers each to Zwithu Zwavhudi and Magalanngwe High Schools during the function. Manamani Primary School also received two computers. New Life after Prison Forum received a donation of tables and chairs, while Vhembe Orphan Home Centre received blankets and food hampers. In our photo, the manager, Mr Sammy Munyai (left), and Ms Amanda Theron, the bank´s regional manager (right) pose happily with Vhembe Orphan Home Center members.

Gogo is still waiting for house

Parents must motivate pupils to study very hard

A devastated gogo, Ms Elisa Ma-vhunga (74), is still staying and sleeping in a mud house in Rabali, which may collapse at any time. She has been waiting for her promised RDP house since 1996.

Mavhunga complained that she had registered for a house along with the others, but she never received her new home. “Now I need a house where I can stay with my 10 other family members,” said the depressed Mav-hunga. The children have since had to find accommodation with relatives.

Mavhunga said she had become tired of the empty promises of the

“Our pupils are failing, not because they do not know what they are writing about, but because they are not pre-pared for the examinations,” said Ms Mukatshelwa Sumbana of the Naledi Foundation.

She was one of the speakers during the launch of the Matsa Development Trust and Career Exhibition at Mulenga High

Makhado Municipal-ity. “Every time elec-tions come around, the municipality promises the community good things like tarred roads, schools, running water and other basic services which they do not have, but as soon as the coun-cillors have been voted into power, they tend to forget about these promises,” she said.

“I live in a two-room mud house which can collapse at any time and I’m a pensioner. I can’t afford to build a house with the money I am receiving from the government, because

I have to support my family,” said Mavhunga.

Cllr Rachel Malange promised to try and establish what had happened to the gogo’s application and why she had not received an RDP house. Makhado Municipality’s spokesper-son, Louis Bobodi, added that the municipality’s role was to conduct surveys in the communities and then send a list of possible beneficiaries to the provincial office and “not to build the actual houses”. He said the municipality was not aware of Mavhunga’s situation, but promised to investigate.

on Saturday.Mulenga is one of the

many schools situated in a very remote area of the Vhembe district. Although it is within the Makhado area, the residents are very poor.

Sumbana said that the number of suicides after the examinations had become a source of concern and ways should be found to curb and stop them. “Pupils should prepare for their work and parents should encourage them and motivate them to work harder,” she added.

According to her, the pupils are the future of

the country and if they are not educated, the country will be heading for chaos. “A nation without education is doomed and will not develop,” she said.

She told the pupils to use their time wisely. “There is time for everything; al-locate more time to your school work and you will get the best results at the end of the year,” she said.

The acting principal, Mr Tambudzani Radali, urged community members to contribute to the development of the edu-cation of their children.

“Teachers and pupils cannot make it on their own. We also need assistance from the outside world, because joint efforts will bring good results to the education of our children,” he said.

Photographed during the event were, from left to right, Mr Tendani Mukona, acting principal of Mulenga High, Mr Tambudzani Radali, Vhamusanda Vho-Philimon Matsa, Dr Edward Mudau and Ms Lalumbe Makuya (Naledi Foundation).

Mukatshelwa Sumbaba from the Naledi Foundation (centre) addressed the pupils on the different careers available.

Three years in jail for stealing curtains

Mayor investigates Davhana’s problems

The Tshilwavhusiku Mag-istrate’s Court sentenced a 50-year-old man to three years’ imprisonment on a charge of housebreaking on Tuesday.

It was heard in court that, on the night of 20 April this year, Mr Tshimangadzo Samuel Matjie cut the fence at a house in the Burundi section of Gogobole vil-lage. He then broke the window and entered the house through the window. He subsequently stole curtains and curtain rails, valued at R1400.

Matjie tendered a plea of guilty and indicated that he knew that breaking into and stealing other people’s property was totally wrong.

The prosecutor read out Matjie’s record of previous crim-inal offences which occured be-tween 1988 and 2003. During this period, Matjie was convicted and sentenced on at least 11 charges of housebreaking and one of as-sault. Jail terms, mostly with the option of a fine, were imposed on him during all those years, in the hope that he would rehabilitate, said the prosecutor.

Magistrate RE Nemushungwa indicated that Matjie’s previous convictions hadn’t only hap-pened in the Tshilwavhusiku area, but that he had previously been convicted in areas such as Polokwane, Modimolle and Bela Bela.

Matjie cited temptation as the cause of his criminal activities. “Ndi tou lingeya (I normally get tempted to steal),” he said, and the courtroom burst out in laughter.

Magistrate Nemushungwa ruled out Matjie’s mitigation as false and said that the accused’s unwillingness to conduct himself responsibly in society proved that he would never learn if he continued like that. “You’re not a good role model to your children, Mr Matjie,” Nemush-ungwa said. “If it’s true that you distribute advertorial pamphlets for businesses, then why did you go on disgracing yourself in this manner?”

“Councillors should work closely with traditional lead-ers,” said the executive mayor of the Vhembe District Munici-pality, Cllr Tshitereke Matibe.

He recently visited the Davha-na Traditional Council, with the aim of strengthening the relation-ship between traditional leaders and the district municipality.

During the event, Khosi Da-vid Davhana indicated that they needed a large portion of the R2,6 billion set aside by Pres Jacob Zuma for the Rural De-velopment programme, during his State-of-the-Nation Address early this year.

“Our tribal council office is too old and too small; it was built in 1959. We approached Pres Zuma for assistance during his visit in August 2009, and we have also even identified a site to build a new office.”

Davhana added that the road from Tswinga to Majozi should be tarred and that the agricul-tural project sponsored by the Far North Youth Development Initiative has been stopped, due to a lack of funds. “People with disabilities also need funds to initiate community projects,” said Khosi David Davhana.

Balanganani village also com-plained about unemployment. He added that most of the boreholes were not functioning and that the cemeteries were not fenced at Mpheni Village.

There are six incomplete RDP houses at Balanganani village, while the Davhana Victim Em-powerment group also needs financial assistance.

In response, Matibe said that it was important for the community to have developmental structures and that these structures should work closely with councillors, community development work-ers and traditional leaders.

“The University of Venda celebrates 30 years of existence (1982-2012)”

The mental care committee at Siloam Hospital in the Nzhelele area, in conjunction with Mulaudzi Transport, recently organised a trip to the Big Tree in the Mutale area. More than 90 people, including Bishop Joel Mulaudzi, took part in the daytrip. The company provided the bus and food parcels free of charge. The patients and the officials visited The Big Tree and the new lodge at the site. From there they proceeded to the Nwanedi Dam. The management of the hospital extended a word of gratitude to the sponsors and owners of the visited areas for making their trip a success. In the picture, the visitors are seen having a great time at the Big Tree in Mutale.

In court for violating three corpses

Women’s month celebrations at Bungeni

A 56-year-old mortuary atten-dant at the Beit Bridge District Hospital has been arrested for allegedly fleecing local residents of their money, after promising to incinerate the bodies of three babies illegally.

Lawrence Mhuri, who is em-ployed as a security guard and who also doubles up as a mortu-ary attendant, faces three counts of contravening a section of the Criminal Law Reform and Codi-fication Act (violating a corpse). He was not asked to plead to the charges when he appeared before a local magistrate, Ms Gloria Takundwa, on Friday.

The case was postponed to 1 September and Mhuri was re-leased on bail of S$50. The pros-ecutor, Mr Jabulani Mberesi, told the court that on 1 January this

year, Fortune Vengesai of Du-libadzimu Township’s baby was stillborn. The baby was put in the mortuary at Beit Bridge District Hospital. Mhuri then allegedly approached her the following day and offered to cremate the corpse at a cost of R300, using the hos-pital incinerator. This despite the fact that the incinerator had been dysfunctional for three years. It is alleged that he then burnt the baby’s body in the hospital’s backyard. He supposedly used petrol to set the body on fire.

The court heard that in the second incident, which occurred on 16 May, Nomsa Jacob’s eight-month-old child died at her house in the same town. She took it to the mortuary in the company of other relatives, so that they could make funeral arrangements.

They were allegedly ap-proached by Mhuri, who of-fered to cremate the baby. He demanded R 350 from the family and was given the money but did not cremate the corpse. He later told the relatives that he had cre-mated the baby in their absence. The body was discovered in June, dumped at the hospital’s organic-waste pit. It is further alleged that on 21 June, another local woman, Locadia Hove, had had a stillbirth at the same hospital and was also approached by Mhuri. He alleg-edly duped the mother in the same manner and took the body to the town’s waste management centre, five kilometres west of the hospital, where he disposed of the body.

Mhuri was arrested, following the discovery of the second body.

A R2 million administration block was officially handed over to Masikhwa Primary School by the US Embassy in South Africa on Friday. “We are thankful for the generous donation of the building of the modern administration block from the Good Samaritan US Embassy in South Africa. After we knocked on various doors without success, the US embassy came to our rescue,” said the principal, Mr Humbulani Tshivhase. Photographed during the event were, from left to right: Col Daniel Hampton (US Embasssy), Circuit Manager of Mutshundudi Circuit Mr Takalani Makakavhule, Khosi Mulindavhathu Masikhwa, Mr Humbulani Tshivhase (school principal), provincial education representative Mr Thomas Maphwanya (far right) and seated is the school governing body representative, Ms Tendani Muhali.

The Limpopo provincial gov-ernment started its women’s month celebrations during a function held at Bungeni vil-lage last Tuesday.

The celebration was launched by the MEC for Road and Trans-port, Mr Pitsi Moloto, on behalf of Premier Cassel Mathale.

Moloto said that it is impor-tant to think about women who are still living with various socio-economic difficulties.

According to him, commu-nities must acknowledge that numerous women are still op-

pressed because of their gender. He added that immediate action must be taken against those perpetrating acts of violence directed at women.

“We must continue pushing hard for the inclusion of women in the mainstream of the econo-my. We have an obligation to ensure that women have access to basic necessities near their respective places of residence. Women should have access to clean water, sanitation facilities and houses that are electrified,” said Moloto.

Moloto said the establishment of statutory bodies and the Min-istry for Women, Children and People with Disabilities helped to advance equality for these previously marginalized people.

He also mentioned that the government is in the process of finalising the Women Empower-ment and Gender Equality Bill, “which will ensure compliance both within government and the private sector with measures intended to promote women empowerment and gender equal-ity”.

Astronomy club to meet next Saturday

Burning tyres and barricades as villagers demand road

The Soutpansberg Astronomy Club in Makhado (Louis Trich-ardt) will have its monthly meeting on Saturday, 18 Au-gust, from sunset onwards.

With no interference from the moon (the new moon was on the

17th), it will be an ideal time to look at some of the deep-sky objects that can be seen. Two of these are the famous planetary nebulae, M27 and M57, the Dumbbell and Ring nebulae. Mars and Saturn will also be

ideally positioned for viewing. Club get-togethers are open

to the public and everyone is welcome.

For more information, write to Kos Coronaios at [email protected]

Scores of villagers from nine villages around the Sibasa area took to the streets last Wednesday to protest against the poor road conditions in their area.

The villagers are accusing the Thulame-la Municipality of unfulfilled promises on the Makwarela-Tshififi road, which they claim was supposed to have been tarred a long time ago. They claim the previous councillor had promised them that it would be tarred, but left before it could happen. They are worried that the present ward councillor is still promising them the same thing, but the promises are never fulfilled.

The protest action started in the early hours of Wednesday, with angry protes-tors putting barricades on the main street

A community leader addresses angry members of the community.

Burning barricades blockade the road and vehicles could not pass the whole day. Barricades have become a problem as community members dissatisfied with the condition of the road keep on putting stones and rocks in it.

from Makwarela to Tsh-ififi. They put burning tyres and boulders in the road, which caused traffic to be diverted and people were not able to use the road.

S c h o o l c h i l d r e n whose transport uses the same road were seen mingling with the protestors. Their prin-cipal came and tried to convince them to attend school but failed to do so.

Some of the leaders of the group, including the local traditional leader, were taken to the mu-nicipality. The protes-tors were not impressed when the delegation returned but without representatives from the municipality. The tradi-tional leader and one of

the leaders tried to calm the protestors, telling them that the municipality would respond to their grievances, but this fell on deaf ears.

Throughout, the police kept their cool but with a watchful eye on the protestors.

“This is the only language that the government of today understands. We have been crying for far too long. I was born here 26 years ago and the road was like this. Since then, there have been many promises to improve our road, which has not happened,” said one of the protestors.

Residents said they have had enough of the dust that comes from the road. ‘“We are forced to inhale dust on a daily basis and it is affecting our health. When it rains, the place becomes muddy and it is impos-sible for cars to pass. We have waited too

long and we want the municipality to do something about this road as a matter of urgency,’’ said one angry resident.

Even though the protesters dispersed later that day, road blockages continued throughout the week, with some sections of the community complaining that even taxis and buses that normally take them to work could not pass. “We will make this road not work for as long as the road remains untarred. We will wake up early each morning and put down rocks until the municipality takes us seriously, “said a woman who wanted to remain anonymous.

Thulamela Municipality spokesperson Mr Nndwamato Tshiila said the road fell under the auspices of the Department of Roads and Transport.

New house for struggling Majosi family

“Thanks for help”

Joy could be seen on the faces of the struggling Maluleke family of Majosi in Makhado when they eventually received a roof over their head after a Good Samaritan built them a decent five-roomed house.

Ms Constance Maluleke, a mother of five chil-dren, could not hold back her tears after receiving the house from a well-known lawyer, Mr Baldwin Baloyi of Baloyi Attorneys.

Maluleke used to share a one-roomed shack with her husband, Joseph, and five children. A commu-nity development worker, Mr Ernest Bamuza, was recently informed of the family’s situation after a 19-year-old family member was killed after she had been hit by a vehicle on her way from school.

“When we were trying to assist with funeral ar-rangements, we discovered that they were living in a situation of extreme poverty. We requested

A fortnight ago, Limpopo Mirror published a report on the burning of a church at Maungani village outside Thohoyandou.

The burning of Emmanuel Assembly, which happened on the eve of a service and conference, made headlines and left many wondering which one was to follow, as it was the third church in the same village to burn under mysterious circumstances. At the time of incident, many expected the leader of the church, Dr Mashango Mmbadi, to be devas-tated, but he pointed out that he was not fazed and promised that God’s work would continue.

A week after the story appeared in this paper, many have responded and the church has been able to restore the roofing. The response was so overwhelming that Mmbadi called the paper and said the story had made such an impact in the community that help came pouring in. ‘’We are very excited about the turn of events. When the incident happened, we did not lose hope and we knew that God had a way that we could overcome the obstacle.” He applauded Limpopo Mirror for the impact of the report. “Through the donations from sympathisers, we have been able to replace the roofing and help is still pouring in. The incident has helped us as we are going put up a steel structure that will be two-and-a-half times the size of the present church,’’ he added.

Mmbadi also thanked other religious leaders who came in their numbers to lend him a help-ing hand. He also thanked business people from Thohoyandou and the other Good Samaritans who assisted them.

Baloyi Attorneys, who were also assisting with the claim from the road accident fund, to assist with a shelter for the family,” said Bamuza.

Baloyi said that the family was assisted as part of the spirit of ubuntu . “We also wanted to make every day a Mandela Day,” he added. “We also wanted to change the lives of the family for the better as they lived under difficult conditions.”

Some of the sponsors, including the Masingita Group of Companies, bought furniture, such as a set of sofas, two double beds, a kitchen unit, two wardrobes and a fridge. Maeteko Funerals, Mung-hana Lonene, Ndivhuwo Funerals and Vuyeriwani Funerals also sponsored some items.

“I’m very happy. God gave me miracles, and I never thought that one day I would have a roof over my head. It is also good to there are still people with hearts of gold,” said Mrs Maluleke.

The Speaker of Makhado Municipality, Cllr Lindiwe Mogale (left), officially presents the house to Mr Joseph Maluleke and his wife Constance (second from right). Looking on is Mhungana Lonene FM station manager Mr James Shikwambani.

A bakkie full of chairs arrives at the church to ensure that the church services are not disturbed at all.

Notice No: 119/2012

Mavhungu Khodobo of Arsenal (left) and Thendo Mukumela of Chiefs wrestle to win the ball.

Ngwenani Young Chiefs came back from a 0-3 deficit at half time and beat Madombidzha Arsenal 4-3 in the final of the Vhembe Mayoral Cup Tour-nament at the Makwarela Stadium on Saturday.

As if they were hypnotised, Young Chiefs watched help-lessly as Arsenal scored three easy goals within the space of 35 minutes.

Their opening goal came in the 18th minute. Matodzi Mutangwa

won the ball from the Chiefs’ de-fender, Aluwani Masala, and ran to the right corner, from where he unleashed a ground cutter. Vincent Rambuwani, who was in the perfect scoring position, gave the ball the final touch.

Rendani Sithodo of Arsenal was booked for a late tackle on Evans Netshitungulu in the 24th minute. Six minutes later, Eric Sefilaro scored Arsenal’s second goal. His close-range volley hit the back of the net after a

scramble within the box.Arsenal extended their lead in

the 35th minute. Matodzi Mu-tangwa made no mistake after receiving a beautiful pass from his captain, Mavhungu Khodobo.

Young Chiefs approached the last half with more self-confidence, despite the fact that they were three goals down. It was in the 60th minute when they opened their account. Evans Netshitungulu beat the keeper with a half volley after some

brilliant moves from behind. Tshilisananai Ratshibvumo of Young Chiefs was also booked for dangerous play on Tshilidzi Sithari in the 67th minute.

Tshifhiwa “One-one” Nedzamba was on tar-get in the 69th minute. Nedzamba completed his brace four minutes afterwards.

Arsenal completely lost shape in the middle of the park soon af-ter the Chiefs’ equal-izer. That gave Chiefs a good chance to score their winning goal via Ndivhuwo Khwashaba, seven minutes before the final whistle.

Amazing Mayoral victory for Young Chiefs

Livhuwani “Banda” Rama-ligela of Rockers FC was a marvel to watch when his side crushed Muthelo FC 2-1 in their losers’ final match for the Vhembe Mayoral Challenge Cup at the Makwarela Stadium on Saturday.

Ramaligela scored a brace in the game, despite the fact that he came on as a substitute earlier in the last half.

The game provided maximum entertainment during the first half, despite the fact that no goal was seen in the first 45 minutes.

Muthelo threatened to score in the eighth minute, but their slen-der striker, Lucky Funyufunyu, lost possession within the box, much to the disappointment of the team’s fans.

The Rockers’ Rastafarian striker, Mukondeleli Tshivhula, who normally gives the team's opponents a run for their money, could not live up to the fans’ expectations as he was tightly marked. Muthelo soon realised that it was not his day when their captain, Maduvha Mudologi, missed a fortune in the 24th min-

ute. He won a loose ball from the middle of the park and beat two defenders in a row before trying his luck with a volley. The ball missed the target by inches.

The coach of Rockers, Mr Eric Siobo, revealed his wisdom when he introduced Ramagilela for Mukondeleli Tshivhula ear-lier in the last half. Ramaligela formed a deadly combination with Dakalo Tshithavhane and Dzulisani Mukhari.

Rockers took the lead in the 64th minute when Ramaligela scored, following a brilliant pass

Banda Ramaligela destroys Muthelo FC

from Fhatuwani Tshi-lumela, who had also come on as a substitute. Ramaligela completed his brace seven minutes later. He connected Of-hani Mudau’s square pass and beat the keeper with a ground cutter.

M u t h e l o f o u g h t back in the 88th min-ute through Aubrey Malivha, but it was al-ready too late for them to find the equalising goal.

There was drama at the end of the game when one of the officials for Muthelo FC, Mr Phi-lemon Siliga, refused to leave the pitch to make way for the officials of the teams which were to play in the final. Siliga was later escorted off the pitch by members of the SAPS.

Benny’s Care demolish Liverpool 7-2

Defeat for Brothers

Benny’s Care Soccer Academy hammered Zamenkomste Liverpool 7-2 in their friendly match played at Tshiozwi grounds on Saturday.

Benny’s dominated proceedings from the onset. They took the lead in the 12th minute, when Eethe Khaukanani tried his luck from the penalty area. The keeper of Liverpool, Mashudu Manthwa, watched helplessly as the ball went beyond his reach.

Khaukanani was on target again in the 18th min-ute, after receiving a beautiful pass from Theo Pho-phi, and sent in a rocket from the edge of the box.

Lesedi Kapinga put his team further ahead, when he forced his way through the defence of Liverpool and, instead of passing the ball to Maduvha Ma-todzi, decided to do it alone.

When Rendani Galedzane was brought down inside the penalty area late in the first half, the referee did not hesitate to point to the white spot. Eethe Khaukanani converted the penalty into a goal, making the score 4-0 for Benny’s at the end of the first half.

The Zamenkomste boys came back strongly in the second half. They continued to mount pres-sure on the defence of Benny’s but failed to break through the solid defence.

Liverpool’s Aluwani Mtshinya, however, man-aged to force his way through and beat the keeper of Benny’s, Tiego Mphothi, with a ground cutter.

Shortly thereafter, Brian Mashego of Benny’s was red-carded for a dangerous tackle.

Benny’s scored the next three goals via Eethe (2) and Maduvha Matodzi. Liverpool’s striker, Tha-belo Mamafha, scored the second goal of his team.

Tshifudi XI Experience fought hard for their 2-1 victory against Mudaswali United Brothers in the final of the Mulindavhathu Soccer Challenge at the Khubvi Tshiseluselu grounds on Sunday.

XI Experience took the game to their opponents from the first whistle. They were unlucky not to find the net in the first ten minutes. Their playmaker, Aluwani Nelufule, who was nominated the best player of the tournament, could not believe his eyes when his volley hit the crossbar and landed outside the pitch for a goal kick.

Ndivhuwo Nemadodzi of United Brothers was reprimanded with a card for a late tackle on Khum-budzo Nemakonde in the 18th minute.

XI Experience were the first to blow the trumpet. Their opening goal was scored by Lutendo Mudau. Mudau gave the ball the final touch after a scramble within the box, to give his side a 1-0 half-time lead. United Brothers’ fast forward, Ndishavhelafhi Badzhi, was brought down within the box in the 69th minute and the referee awarded a penalty. Talifhani Mphaga scored from the spot. United Brothers continued to control proceedings, with Experience relying on counterattacks.

Things turned against United Brothers in the 78th minute. A mix-up within their danger area gave rise to a goal. Aluwani Nelufule deflected the ball into the net and shattered the Brothers’ hopes of lifting the trophy.

Experience then played defensive football for the remaining part of the game.

The new Leopards players: Ayanda Mtshali, Tommy Mandlazi, Thulani Ntshingila, Djunga Munganga, Mondli Miya, Brian Amidu and Odimba Lama.


International stars to strengthen the Black Leopards squadBlack Leopards officially intro-duced seven new players during an event at the Meropa Casino last Wednesday.

The seven new players are:· Djunga Munganga, a mid-

fielder who was signed from DR Congo side St Eloi Lupopo;

· Odimba Lama, a Mozambican international goalkeeper;

· Ayanda Mtshali, a goalkeeper, who was previously on the books of

Free State Stars;· Brian Amidu, who failed to

make an impact at Kaizer Chiefs, due to injuries, but he has been tipped to play a pivotal role for Leopards in the new season;

· Tommy Mandlazi (20) joins the team from the Vodacom League side Baobab Zero Fake from Mopani;

· Mondli Miya and Thulani Ntshingila were signed from fellow Limpopo side Dynamos.

“ Our aim is to compete for silverware this season. We are doing everything pos-sible to keep the players in good shape by playing a number of friendlies,” said Leop-ards spokesperson Mr Tendani Thidiela.

“We want a team this season that plays football on the ground, not ‘confusing’ football. This season, you are going to see a much-improved Black Leopards, play-ing the South African style of football,” he added.

Thidiela confirmed that they had released Edward Chabalala, who joined Platinum Stars, Khethowakhe Masuku (Orlando Pirates), Simphiwe Nkhonza, Benedict Vilakazi, Alpheus Leepeng and Kleinbooi Taaibos.

Two players who are still on the transfer list are Postnet Ormony and David Banda. Thidiela appealed to the club’s support-ers to come in large numbers to the Peter Mokaba Stadium, when they play their first league match against Bloemfontein Celtic on Saturday.

Building, Tel: 072 576 1577Leopards want to start league with a bang

Takers FC too strong for RO United

Black Leopards intend to start their 2012/13 Absa Premier-ship campaign with a bang when they host Bloemfontein Celtic at the Peter Mokaba Stadium in Polokwane tomor-row afternoon.

Leopards lost 0-2 to both Or-lando Pirates and Bloemfontein Celtic in their first two league matches last season, something which the team’s general man-ager, Mr Sam Khaphathe, says it will never happen again. He reiterated the fact that the Caf Confederation matches, which they played during the off season,

was a blessing in disguise to them, saying that kept the play-ers fit throughout the off season.

In the other PSL matches that will also be played tomorrow, Free State Stars will host Bidvest Wits at the Goble Park Stadium, while Amazulu will entertain Kaizer Chiefs at the Moses Mabhida Stadium in Durban. Both Amazulu and Kaizer Chiefs are still in shock after losing last weekend’s MTN matches. Chiefs lost 1-4 to Mamelodi Sundowns. while Amazulu were beaten 1-2 by Moroka Swallows.

The premiership rookies,

Chippa United, will play their first league match against Mam-elodi Sundowns at the Lucas Moripe Stadium.

Two matches will be played this evening. Orlando Pirates will host Lamontville Golden Arrows at the Orlando Stadium and Supersport United will take on Ajax Cape Town at the Cape Town Stadium.

Sunday will see the University of Pretoria play against Maritz-burg United at the Absa Tuks Sta-dium, while Moroka Swallows and Platinum Stars will meet at the Royal Bafokeng Stadium.

Supersport United proved that they rule Mopani’s annual Mayoral Charity Cup, when they beat Moroka Swallows 4-0 in the final at Giyani Stadium a fortnight ago.

They also beat Mamelodi Sun-downs 2-1 in the opening match earlier in the day.

For Supersport, it was more than a charity game; it was also an opportunity to take back their reign in the Charity Cup. They were unexpectedly beaten by Giyani Hot Spurs in a penalty shoot-out last year .

According to Mopani Mayor Joshua Matlou, the tournament boosts local teams financially and provides a platform for bud-ding players to be developed and recognised by PSL teams.

“We have players like Teko Modise and others who were identified in this tournament,” explained Matlou.

He said the main aim of the event was not only to develop local teams, but also to generate funds for various community projects in the district. “Last year we gave R100 000 to each of the 20 projects, but this year we’re expecting to increase it to 30 or 40 projects. We have already generated R3 million out of this event and the gala dinner that we had prior to the tournament,” he said.

Matlou said the additional projects had not been identified yet, but they were looking for-ward to donating to organisations that look after disabled persons this year. - Lin News/Bulletin

Tshakhuma Takers FC were too strong for their brothers, Tshakhuma RO United, when they beat them 1-0 in a rehearsal match at Tshakhuma on Sunday.

The match was watched by more than 2 000 spectators.

The first half was characterized by squandered opportunities. United’s killer-striker, Ndivhuwo Makhado, kept the Takers defence running because of his excellent dribbling skills. Makhado was unlucky when the game was 18 minutes old. He caught the keeper, Tendani Ramadi, off guard, but his volley hit the woodwork and bounced back into the field of play.

Takalani Mukwevho of United could not live up to the supporters’ expectations as he was tightly marked. Unarine Mukhavhuli of Takers missed an easy opportunity in the 29th minute, when he dribbled past three United defenders and lost pos-session on the brink of unleashing.

The only goal of the day was scored in 80th minute. Ricardo Miriri received a square pass from Khukiso Netshaulu and beat the keeper.

XI Experience win Mulindavhathu KOTshifudi XI Experience were crowned the 2012 champions of the Mulindavhathu Soccer Challenge after beating Mu-daswali United Brothers 2-1 at the Khubvi Tshiseluselu grounds on Sunday.

XI Experience received a floating trophy, soccer kit and

gold medals and a R2 000 cash prize during the prize-giving ceremony that took place at the local chief’s kraal after the final.

Mudaswali United Brothers received R1 000, a soccer kit and silver medals, while the third-placed side, The Dol-phins, were presented with

R700 and bronze medals during the ceremony.

A prize of R500, which was supposed to have been pre-sented to the fourth-placed side was retained by the organizers, as Mukula Young Santos did not honour their losers’ final match against The Dolphins.

According to the rules of the competi-tion, a team that fails to honour a match faces an automatic dismissal from the compet i t ion . The teams which did not reach the semifinal stage of the competi-tion were each given soccer balls.

Fifteen teams took part in the competi-tion.

The coach of Mu -daswali United Broth-ers, Mr Prince Ma-pholi, was the best coach of the tourna-ment. The keeper of Tshifudi XI Expe-rience, Rotshidzwa Muleka, received the best goalkeeper award, while the best player award went to Aluwani Nelufule of Tshifudi XI Ex-perience. As a way of recognizing his contribution towards the development of sports at grassroots level, a correspondent of Limpopo Mirror, Mr Frank Mavhungu, was presented with a trophy during the ceremony.
