KAMVELIHLE residents are up inarms against a woman they claimhas kicked out the 17-year old son ofher late boyfriend from his home.

The residents claim they no longerwant to see Noleti Limba-Diniso (42)at the house in Canzi Street. Thehouse belonged to the late Andile Gu-menge (45) and, according to resi-dents, Noleti was his Masihlalisane(live-in-lover).

Speaking to PE Express Indabaamid singing and toy-toying lastWednesday the residents said:“Away with Noleti. We don’t wanther in our community. She is danger-ous!”

Residents also accuse Noleti ofbringing her current boyfriends tothe late man’s house. They accuseher of not giving the child his ownhouse-key and that the boy’s Grade9 school work has been adversely af-fected.

“The life of this young boy becamehell since his father died in May lastyear. He does not get food, is lockedout of the house and the worst waswhen she accused him of attemptedrape and had him arrested,” a familyfriend Nosipho Maswana said.

She accused him of calling hernames, while she is the one that iscalling the boy names, added Zuk-iswa Jim, who is the late Andile’scousin.

Noleti, on the other hand, who ad-mitted to have been married to Di-niso once, claims to have been

Andile’s common-law wife.“And the Gumenges know about

that,” she said.Noleti admitted to having a “de-

cent boyfriend” but denied that theysleep together at Gumenge’s housewhich according to her is now hersanyway.

Noleti instead, accuses her step-son of being disrespectful and theresidents of entering in a matter thatdoes not affect them.

“We have been watching Noleti de-stroying the life of the young boy andwe now say, enough is enough,” saidBering Sefali, a community churchpastor.

“Wecalledher, as amother, askingthat they try to find ways to live to-gether in peace and harmony but sherefused. Instead, she had the boy ar-rested and we as the communitywent out of our way to pay R300 forhis bail,” said Sefali.

Police spokesperson Warrant Of-ficer Thembi Gwe confirmed that theboy was arrested for contravening aProtection Order. According to Gwe,his bail was paid and he is expectedin court again on 1 March.

“I am still waiting for Andile’smonies to be paid out. I had plannedto assist his son whom I love. Butnow that they have exposed me,therewon’t bepeace. Iwon’t givehima cent. I won’t return to the house formy safety, but I’ll sell it. It is myhouseanyway, theGumengesaccept-ed me as their daughter-in-law,” saidNoleti.

Andile’s mother, Nothobile Gu-menge (73), said from her home in

Port Alfred that she hadn’t had anypeace since her son died. “I don’t

know what to do anymore. I feel pityfor my grandson. I hope this woman

can find it in her heart to live inpeace with Andile’s son,” she said.

IN the wake of a massive resur-gence of interest in the folk iconRodriguez created by the Oscar-nominated documentary“Searching for Sugarman”, Cen-trestage presents its own two-night only salute to Rodriguez atOld Grey this weekend on 8thand 9th February.

“Finding Sugarman” is headedup by Wayne Kallis, along with anew-look line-up which introducesdrummer Devon Van Rooyen andbassist Andrew Warneke to theCentrestage fold and reacquaintsfans with percussionist John Dick-in in the 6-man ensemble.Sherid Van Rooyen plays guitar

and Khanya Matomela plays key-boards in the band.Despite being completely un-

known in his home country, themusic of Mexican-American Rod-riguez was extremely popular inSouth Africa in the 70’s and 80’s as

its poetic, anti-establishment lyr-ics, which touched a chord with thetroubled youth, came to serve as an-ti-Apartheid anthems.In 1969, many believed that his

initial album Cold Fact would se-cure his reputation as one of thegreatest recording artists of hisgeneration.Instead the album bombed and

the Rodriguez seemingly disap-peared into obscurity, even beingsubject to rumours that he had com-mitted suicide by setting himself onfire onstage and other imaginativetales.The album took on a life of its

own when a bootleg recordingfound its way into our own SouthAfrica. Banned by the Apartheidgovernment, the album became anationwide phenomenon over thenext two decades, and the sound-track to a resistance movement ofliberal African youth.The Searching for Sugarman doc-

umentary tells the story of twoSouth Africans who set out in the1990s to find out the truth behindthis elusive and shadowy legend. Indoing so, they uncovered the hum-ble construction worker who hadno idea he was a superstar!Once contact was re-established

for the first time, subsequent toursto South Africa in 1998 and 2003were arranged and Centrestage hadthe rare privilege of staging thesold-out concert in Port Elizabeththemselves.With Rodriquez now scheduled

to perform in Johannesburg andCape Town in February under thebanner of Big Concerts, the PE sa-lute will afford local fans a chanceto enjoy Rodriguez’s entire knownrepertoire being performed live bya top group of local musicians.Tickets for the show can be pur-

chased through Computicket atR120 each, with block bookings of8 costing only R100.

tions for the year ahead, VodacomUnlimitedwill be there to ensure onelastmassivepartybefore it’s allworkand no play.On Friday, February 8, Vodacom

THREE Port Elizabeth girls aredetermined to overcome the hard-ships they face in life by studyinghard for a better future.

The trio, Abongile Layiti, Sipho-sethu Ngcukana and NtomboxoloBokoyi of Kamvelihle Townshipnear Motherwell, believe educationis the key to success. They are pupilsat James Jolobe High School inMotherwell.“I’d like to become a doctor to help

sick people, especially those suffer-ing from HIV/Aids,” said Abongilewho is in Grade 11.According to Abongile, HIV/Aids

is the biggest killer of humanity andrequires a more concerted effort inthe fight against it.Siphosethu who is in Grade 9

would like to become a journalist.“I’d like to knowmore about our poli-ticians like president Jacob Zumaand what they are up to. I like towrite and take photos and I thinkSouth African politics are interest-

ing to write about,” said Siphosethu.As far as Ntomboxolo is con-

cerned, poverty that is ravaging hu-manity is the biggest cause for con-cern. This Grade 9 learner wants todo something about it.“I’d like to becomeaSocialWorker

to dealwith people’s needs like socialgrants and school uniforms for chil-dren. I see somuch poverty around,”said Ntomboxolo.The trio are also involved in sport.

They all partake in the school’s net-ball team while Ntomboxolo is alsoa member of the school choir.

cort Player Programme for the Or-ange Africa Cup of nations werepart of the Confederation of AfricanFootball (CAF) regulations andwere drawn from the bank’s employ-

ee network - from South Africa aswell as other parts of the continentsuch asGhana, Lesotho,Malawi andMozambique,” said MaandaNematandani, M-Sport MarketingCommunications Officer, addingthat the programme was sponsoredby Standard Bank.As part of the Standard Bank’s

long-standing support of UnitedAgainst Malaria (UAM) - a socialawareness project that is also offi-cially supported and endorsed byCAF - each player escort shirt car-ried the UAM branding on a sleeve.According to Nematandani, UAM

is a partnership of football teamsand heroes, celebrities, health andadvocacy organisations, govern-ments, corporations and people whohave united to win the fight againstmalaria.

THERE is still good Orange Afri-ca Cup of Nations (Afcon) foot-ball awaiting Eastern Cape foot-ball lovers, according to NelsonMandela Bay South AfricanFootball Association (Safa) pres-ident Mzimkhulu Fina.

Fina was referring to the game tobe played at Nelson Mandela Baystadium on Saturday 9th Februaryfor the third place between the los-ers of the 2013 Afcon Semifinalswhich is being played today.

Burkina Faso will play againstGhana in the first semi-final whileMali will entertain Nigeria at Mo-ses Mabhida Stadium in Durban to-day. The winners will compete in

the final for the coveted Afcon Cup.Burkina Faso pipped Togo 1-0 at

Mbombela Stadium in Nelspruitwhile Nigeria surprised IvoryCoast with a 2-1 defeat. Mali beatBafana Bafana 3-1 on penalties af-ter the 1-1 draw in regulation timeand the 30-minute a side extra timein Durban. Both games were playedat the weekend.

“The biggest disappointment

was the defeat of Bafana Bafana toMali in a dicey penalty shoot-out,”said Fina.

Despite Bafana’s loss, Fina wasoptimistic that football lovers fromthe Bay and provincewill still comein numbers to support whoevercomes to play here - like they didduring the round-robin matches,he said.

“Bafana Bafana might have lost.

But, we are happy with what thecoach (Gordon Igesund) is trying todo with the boys. They are current-ly playing good football and it canonly become better. This will moti-vate fans to watch and support foot-ball more,” said Fina adding thathe also hoped attemptswill bemadeto have Bafana Bafana come to playat Nelson Mandela Bay stadiumsoon.

MAKHOSONKE Zwengu is taking a biggamble in challenging Masixole Botile’sEastern Cape Middleweight title, said thelatter’s handler Caiphus Ntate.

Highly rated South African Middle-weight contender, Zwengu, and EC cham-pion, Botile, will square off over 10-roundsin the main bout of Andile Siqwepu’sAndile Boxing Promotions bill at BabsMadlakane Community Hall on Saturday9 March.

Boxing South Africa (BSA) has approvedZwengu of KwaNobuhle in Uitenhage asthe mandatory challenger of the title heldby Christopher Buthelezi of KwaZulu Na-tal owing to the boxer previously in thespot, Peter Mashamaite’s, long inactivity.

“My boy has been promised a fight forthe SA title in December, but that fight fellthrough on the eleventh hour. So we aretaking a warm-up fight against Botile - justto keep busy before we get a crack at the

national crown,” said Zwengu’s handlerNtemi Frans with confidence.

According to Frans, fighting Botile, ofWalmer in Port Elizabeth, for the provin-cial title was their best bet.

He said, “We want to keep busy, sharpen-ing our skills and building our confidenceby beating Botile, considering that we beathim fair and square in our first fight inPort Alfred in February 2010.”

“They are making a huge mistake. Thisis a big gamble that they will live to regret.Botile has gained a lot of experience sincehis previous encounter with Zwengu. We’lltake the fight as an elimination to the na-tional title. Amaxesha ngamanye (theseare new times) and it’s our time to shine,”said Ntate.

Both boxers fought against former ECchampion Leon Mriba of PE in their lastfight.

Zwengu knocked Mriba out in threerounds more than a year ago while Botilestopped him in six rounds on 17 Decemberlast year for the EC title.

Is Zwengu taking a riskfighting Botile?

THE Nestlé MILO Champions Tournamentmakes its return for yet another excitingyear, as nationwide registrations for 2013officially opened fromJanuary 14 until Feb-ruary 28.

Nestlé South Africa, in associationwith the South African Schools FootballAssociation (SASFA), will embark on anational journey to find South Africa’syoungest football champions in the sixthconsecutive year of this under-13 tourna-ment.

During the past few years that Nestlé andSASFA have enjoyed this partnership, thetournament has recognised five nationalschool champions from Limpopo, Gautengand the Eastern Cape.

In addition, the tournament has awardedclose to R1,5 million in prize money to pro-vincial and national champions of the tour-nament between 2008 and 2012.

One of the biggest accomplishments ofthe tournament is that since 2008, it hasreached approximately 280 000 childrenacross the country.

Another tournament milestone is that in2010, South Africa became the first countryto host the first edition of theMILOAfricanChampions Tournament – which now oc-curs every two years.

In fact, SA’s 2011 champions, Nkunz-imbini Primary School, had an opportu-nity, through this tournament, to travelto Ghana for a once-in-a-lifetime five-daytrip, where they participated in the MI-LO African Champions Tournamentagainst other MILO champions from Ni-geria, Kenya, Sierra Leone, Liberia andGhana.

“One of the most important things aboutthis tournament is that it gives Nestlé aplatform to educate the youth on the signifi-cance of eating healthily and of living a

healthy lifestyle. Nestlé and SASFA areproud of the increased access to sportand opportunities that this tournamenthas provided over the years. We lookforward to an exciting 2013 tourna-ment,” stated Kelly Wainwright, NestléSouth Africa’s Marketing Manager forDairy.

The Provincial Championships for 2013are set to take place from May, with spe-cific dates to be announced at a laterstage.

This year’s prizes include R10 000 foreach of the ninewould-be Provincial Cham-pions and an ultimate prize of R150 000 forthe potential National Champions.

Last year’s winners, Sada Senior Prima-ry School, made history by becoming thethird school from the Eastern Cape to winthe tournament and walk away withR150 000.

The school utilised theirwinnings to buysporting equipment for their athleticsteam and to build a soccer field at theschool.

“The money that our young men won inthe MILO Champions Tournament hasbeen a great help and we are very proud ofhowwell our boys played,” stated PrincipalLuthando Magolodela of Sada Senior Pri-mary School.

“The way in which last year’s winnersutilised the prize money certainly provesjust how important and necessary a pro-gramme such as this is.

“It is very rewarding to know that everytime these children get on the field to com-pete against one another, they have a wor-thy goal inmind – to improve sporting facil-ities in their schools.

“We are very proud of all the participantsandwe say to all the communities, teachersand parents – continue to support your chil-dren in this amazing venture, their futureis bright,” said SASFA President, Mandla“Shoes” Mazibuko.
