In two separate incidents this past week learners from two high schools in KwaNobuhle were found with evidence of drug- use and binge-drinking. Members of the Community Police Forum (CPF) and South African Police Services (SAPS) in KwaNobuhle conducted a random search for drugs and dangerous weapons at Nkululeko High School last week and they were shocked with what they found. “The principal of Nkululeko High School, Thobeka Stokwe, and staff noticed unusual be- haviour of some of the pupils and realised that they were using drugs,” said police spokesper- son Constable Majola Nkohli. “Their behaviour made it very difficult for both educators and learners to perform their du- ties,” explained Stokwe. The school authorities did their own search but could not find any drugs and the learners did not want to give any information. The principal then wrote a letter requesting the Police and the CPF as part of its Safer Schools Programme to conduct a search. “We confiscated unknown capsule tablets dur- ing the search and have taken those to the labo- ratories for analysis,” said Nkohli. In a separate incident last week, police were alerted by concerned KwaNobuhle parents after learners from Molly Blackburn High School al- legedly hired a tavern for a matric farewell after- party. “The school took matrics to a hotel in Port Elizabeth for their farewell, but the pupils decid- ed also to hire a tavern for what they called a ‘Phase 2’ of the farewell function, said Nkohli, adding that the learners allegedly sold liquor to under-age children. He said this was happening without any su- pervision as the tavern owner was not present during the learners’ party. Majola said police closed the tavern immediately and have report- ed the matter to the Liquor Board. “I’d like to urge other schools experiencing drug problems to ask the police for assistance in curbing the use of drugs by the pupils,” said Const Nkohli, adding that they had conducted similar operations in the past which assisted in the identification of the mushrooming drug posts. Shock over drug abuse at local schools POLICE AND CPF CONDUCT RANDOM SEARCHES A GROUP of pupils from the Mfesane High School in Motherwell clinched third place in a national civil engineering competition last week Friday. The team, which is part of the Coega spon- sored Maths and Science Programme, compet- ed in the national competition after being crowned overall winners of the Port Elizabeth Algoa Regional competition of the South Afri- can Institution of Civil Engineering (SAICE) water competition in July. They were the only school from a previously disadvantaged community to take part in the competition where it competed against well- established schools in the region such as Dan- iel Pienaar, Alexander Road High, Victoria Park High and Muir College. Teams from 11 regions took part in the national competition. The Mfesane team narrowly lost to the Gau- teng and Northern Cape region respectively. “What is encouraging about this achieve- ment is the tough competition the school had to face and how we managed to overcome it. This is the type of endurance and dedication we hope to achieve with the scholars through the Coega-led Maths and Science Programme,” said Mpumezo Ndabeni, CDC Maths and Sci- ence Projects manager. The schools water distribution network competition started in 2003 when SAICE and Rand Water both celebrated their centenaries and jointly decided to launch a water competi- tion as part of their festivities.

After the call from the South African Nation-al Taxi Council (SANTACO) for taxis to in-crease their tariffs, Port Elizabeth Taxi Asso-ciations say they will not heed the requestas it would hamper their business.

Taxi Associations in Port Elizabeth are re-jecting the call for an increase in taxi fare, ac-cusing SANTACO of not realising the impactit would have on commuters and their busi-ness.SANTACO recently said they were propos-

ing tariff hikes,ranging from R1 to R5, de-pending on the routes.SANTACO Executive, Kelibone Mankayi,

said they had now implemented a standardplan for Taxi Associations in the province toincrease tariffs every July of each year, socommuters could be comfortablewith the tar-iffs by the festive season peak.“We are aware that PE Taxi Associations

are rejecting the proposed tariff hikes and weare negotiating with them in this regard,”Mankayi continued, saying, they were awareof how the increased taxi fares would impacton commuters as well as the struggling TaxiAssociations but had no other choice owingto hikes in petrol prices.Ncedo Association Executive Mandisi Mk-

haza said they (UNCEDO) had not yet dis-cussed any tariff increase as the associationfor the coming months.“We were surprised to hear from radio sta-

tions of SANTACO’s request to increase tar-iffs as this was not discussed with our associ-ation. The taxi industry in the PE region isalready suffering with many of our commut-ers finding othermeans of transport. Our tax-is are empty and many people now find trav-elling with buses a much cheaper option andsome are even taking chances at hiking spotsbecause of our high prices.”NcedoTaxiAssociation transports longdis-

tance commuters and commuters travellingaround all Port Elizabeth townships.Mkhaza said SANTACO had no idea of the

economic crunch they were dealing with atlocal level, saying, “ SANTACO makes deci-sions at national level which impact us. Theorganisation has little insight into the prob-lems faced locally. No one has ever come tous and discussed changes in tariffs. We areleft in the dark about these issues.”Controllingmost of theNorthernAreas, Al-

goaTaxiAssociation executive, said they alsohad no intention of increasing tariffs.“Things are tight at the moment. We nor-

mally rely on SANTACO to decide on changesin fares but we currently have no intentionof making any changes which would be detri-

mental to the association.” said Algoa TaxiAssociation Executive Clay Burden.Burden said, likeNcedoTaxis , they too had

had a dry spell with 20% fewer commuterstravelling with taxi’s during the year. “Weare trying tokeep taxi’s affordable to our com-muters inhopes that ourbusinesses survive.”Mankayi said Santaco was planning to

have dialogues with commuters to try to findsolutions to the pricing problems. “We wantto engage with commuters in the near futureso that we can make them understand whatthe taxi businesses are facing and also getmore insight into the challenges faced bycommuters when travelling with us,” saidMankayi.

Commuters expressed their outrage at theimpending tariff hikes. PE Express Indabaspoke to threecommuterswhosaid theyarenot prepared to pay any more for taxis andwould rather take the bus as it was moreaffordable.

Zwide based Kholiswa Labasi said she trav-elled everyday, at a cost ofR20perday, fromher home to Walmer where she works. “Ino longer take taxis because of the amountI pay everyday to come towork. If they con-tinue to charge us somuchmoney, we haveno other choice but to take buses to work.”Bulelwa Sokuthu, from KwaDwesi, said she

pays R13 to come toWalmerwith a taxi andR3 less with a bus. “The taxi fare is reallyhitting our pockets. I don't think I will beable to afford taxi fare if they continue tohike prices.”Mimi Nono, fromKwaDwesi, said she earns

R2 500 as a domestic worker and taxi faretakes R780 of her income. “I was shockedto hear over the radio that they (Santaco)intended to charge us more money. Wheredo they think we will get this money? Itsevenworse for us becausewe have to travellongdistances to get toworkand thismakesour life very difficult. Government mustwork together with taxis or try and subsi-dise them, to helpuswith the fees,” saidNo-no.

Cikizwa Saul from New Brighton in Port Elizabeth. I was diagnosed withasthma and tonsillitis when I was twelve years old. In 2009 I started experi-encing backache and headaches and was later diagnosed with highblood pressure. I went to the clinic for treatment but in 2010 I overheardpeople in the taxi talking about Gotha products. I stopped the taxi atthe Pick n Pay centre and bought Gotha spray and sprayed it on myback and rubbed it in. I also sprayed it in my mouth. At home I washedmy swollen feet and sprayedmy feet.Within three days I experienced nomore pains and my blood pressure was normal. I advise people to buy

Gotha products. They are excellent products and you will see the results.Go forward Gotha Health.

Eunice Tokwe fromKwazakhele in PortElizabeth. Previ-ously I had a jobin a restaurant,but had to stopworking due tomy knee problemand high bloodpressure. I couldn'twalk for longdistances and it wasdifficult to stand for any length of time. Astime passed I heard people on the radiospeaking about Gotha Twin Pack. I visitedone of their branches in Dasi, accompa-nied by my grandchildren. They had tocarry me to the top of the stairs. I boughtthe Twin Pack and Aloe spray. I drank thetablets and drops in the morning andapplied the spray to my knee. I have beenusing Magogotha products now for fiveyears and honestly, I can walk again with-out any assistance and I have no morepains in my knee. I do all the cleaning athomemyself and there is nothing I cannotdo. Furthermore, my sister had blisters onthe back of her ear. I also gave her Gothaspray. Within seven days my sister wascompletely healed and the blisters disap-peared. When I go for checkups even myhigh blood pressure is normal. I will useGotha Products till the end of my life.

My name is Siqhamo Mnyazi.Last year I injuredmy shoulder when I was playing football with friends. Iexperienced a lot of pain; I couldn't even sleep the first night. My radiowas on UmhloboWenene FM and I heard about the Gotha Health prod-ucts. I went to the pharmacy to buy the Magogotha twin pack. I usedthe Aloe spray regularly on my shoulder. It was unbelievable. Just 3weeks and I was healed. I will suggest the Gotha products to any person

with a sport injury.Gotha products work 100%.

I recommend the Gotha product, thank you GOTHA HEALTH.

My name is Vuyiswa Gwaqu from Siya Street, Joe Slovo in Port Eliza-beth. One day I was cleaning my yard, when I felt a sharp pain in myspinal cord. The doctors diagnosed me with stress, arthritis andtonsillitis. It was very painful. I heard people talking about GothaProducts on the radio and early the next morning I took a taxi to aGotha shop in the Pick n Pay centre. I bought a Twin Pack and AloeSpray. I used the products and after just two weeks I could see theimprovement. Then my husband passed away and I didn't haveenough money to buy the products. It was a very stressful time, but

then I bought the Herbal Tea blend and the stress was gone.Forward Gotha! Forward.

I am Siphe Mfihlo fromWhittlesea (Queenstown) now residing at Orange Farm(Gauteng) My situation was beyond redemption before I learned aboutMagogothahealth products. I had exasperating stomachproblems,my facewas covered with something like dandruff, which was embarrassing toappear in public. I read about this Gotha health product in a newspaperand visited one of their stores where I bought Ostrich Oil Soap, Re-genSkin Cream and Herbal Tea blend. I utilised this product for a while andwithin threeweeks therewas amassive change inmybody and tomy face.I value the product and I recommend it to the nation or for everyone with

the sameproblem.Thankyou formakingadifference inmy life andkeepup the good work and for making us proud of your Gotha products.

VUK’UKHANYE Productive Health Project ismaking a difference in the lives of poor fami-lies in the Zwide, Soweto-On-Sea and Veeplaasareas.

The registered Non Profit-making Organisa-tion (NPO) based at Mdingi Street in Zwidetownship has close to 100 volunteers on itsbooks. These are people who look after the sickand dying in this impoverished area in the Nel-son Mandela Bay Municipality.

The NPO does home-based care and offerssupportgroups for thesickaswellas orphanedand vulnerable children (OVC) including chil-dren who find themselves heading families.

“We started this NPO in 1998 as a home-based care project for TB patients. We werehelping them get treatment as Directly Ob-served Therapy Supporters (DOTS),,” saidproject manager Julia Tapi.

With the notable increase in HIV/Aids infec-tions in the area VUK’UKHANYE decided toadd an HIV/Aids component to the visits togive assistance and support especially to thosewho are bedridden.

According to Project Director Patricia Mzo-zoyana, they also went to clinics to assist andfound the patients welcoming the idea of work-ing with them to accept their HIV status and

if infected, disclose to a most trusted personwhen the time was right.

“We wash them and make sure that theytake treatment after getting something to eat,”explained Sibongile Khumalo, a home-basedcaregiver, adding that they also run a soupkitchen to provide the sick with hot meals.

Fresh vegetables come straight from the gar-den while other volunteers are involved in theSchools Cleaning Programme for a stipendwhich also helps them to continue giving theirservices.

“Among the struggles we face are dealingwith people who default on taking their treat-ment some because of alcohol abuse,” said As-anda Andries, adding that they however trytoencourage themandevencollect themedica-tion for the patients to make it easier for them.

“Our desire is to get a place of our own, tobuild a community centre and a creche forchildren as there is currently none here,” saidTapi.

“I know and support Vuk’ukhanye. They aremaking a huge difference in the lives of theneedy in the ward. They need space and usemy office’s toilet,” said Ward 28 CouncillorBuyelwa Mafaya.

She added, “Vukukhanye is restoring peo-ple’s confidence and hope. Through their vol-unteers they reduce unemployment and I sup-port them 100 per cent.”

A GROUP OF women who are patients at Do-ra Nginza Hospital, KwaZakhele in Port Eliz-abeth were told to speak out against any formof abuse, wherever it rears its ugly face.

Speaking at Ward CG3 during a workshopthe hospital organised for the patients andstudent nurses last Wednesday in the spiritof Women’s Month, Clinical PsychologistMelody Crafford told the women the impor-tance of looking after themselves well toavoid stress and depression which could leadto suicide.

Crafford who has a practice in Sixth Ave-nue, Walmer, reminded the women abouttheir in-born ability to multi-task. She saidwomen manage roles as mothers, spouses,employees so well but sometimes forget tolook after themselves.

“You forget self, and it is wrong,” said Craf-ford.

According to Crafford, men were typicallyseen as strong mainly because of their phy-sique and masculinity. Women on the other

hand, she said, underestimate the strengththat they do possess to deal with multipleproblems.

“If women could realise how muchstrength they have, many problems societyfaces could be solved,” said Crafford, addingthat “women should rather harness theirstrength in order to cope with the demandsplaced before them - because they are wom-en.”

DoraNginzaPrincipalSeniorSocialWork-er Pamela Rubushe said the workshop wasorganised to celebrate women in this theirmonth, to create awareness against abuseand, most importantly, to empower womenin these challenging times.

“Women need these kinds of workshops inorder to know how to deal with life’s chal-lenges and continue to live positive lives,”said Rubushe.

Vuyiseka Mngqibisa, a patient said, “I feelgood and safe because I’ve got a voice to de-fend myself against challenge that I may facein life.Usan’ olungakhaliyo lufel’ embelekwe-ni. Loosely translated, it means if you do notlook after yourself you’ll always be a victim.”

NELSON Mandela Bay will have a newSouth African Super Middleweight champi-on on Saturday September 21, that is, accord-ing toWalmer, Port Elizabeth boxing trainer,Caiphus Ntante.

Speaking to PE Express Indaba about theprospects of his charge, Ntante said the met-ro municipality must prepare to roll out thered carpet for the challenger, MasixoleBotile, is going to beat championBalimoWel-iya when the duo lock horns for the crownat Mdantsane Indoor Sports Centre, in EastLondon.

Mandela Bay metro had never won a na-tional crown since Mbulelo Nyanda beatPhathutshedzo Nemukongwe on Knock Out(KO) 1 for the SA Junior Flyweight diademin Durban in 2003.

This 12-round championship bout will bethe main attraction of Mamali Boxing Pro-motions boss Siphatho Handi’s exciting bill.

Weliya will be making a voluntary defence

of the then vacant title he won on a TechnicalKnock Out (TKO) 9 against Goodman Dywiliin Johannesburg on March 9 2011 and suc-cessfully defended it on points against man-datory challenger Charles Oosthuizen in Al-ice on March 13 this year.

In his last two fights, Botile won the East-ern Cape Super Middleweight title when hestopped Leon Mriba on Knock Out (KO) 4 inUitenhage in December 2012 but lost it onpoints in his first defence against Makho-sonke Zwengu in March.

Ntante believes Botile with 12 fights, 7-wins and 5-losses will possess toomuch artil-lery for the former Democratic Republic ofCongo (DRC) born SA champion (14 fights, 11wins and three losses) whom he trained inhis gym earlier in his career in South Africa.

“I know both boxers as I have trained theminmygym.Truthbe told, Botile carriesmuchfire-power that will be enough to thwart anyof Weliya’s plans. Without a doubt, NelsonMandela Bay will have a new SA championon the fight night. Botile will win on a knockout,” a bold Ntante predicted.

SEVEN of Port Elizabeth young Judokasbrought home ninemedals after partakingin a national competition at Turffontein inJohannesburg last week.

Members of theBudokwai Judo Instituteat Hoza in New Brighton township led bysensei KennethMagqabi shone against na-tional opposition at the National RankingGames.

Seven out of nine Nelson Mandela Bayjudokaswhowere part of the Eastern CapeTeam won medals against stiff oppositionfrom other provinces, according toMagqa-bi.

“It was not easy,” an overjoyedMagqabipointed out. He said Dojos usually sent tothe competition the best athletes who fighthard to be at the national rankings whichwas where provincial players that wouldrepresent SouthAfrica against other coun-tries of the world were chosen.

“You fight hard to be at the nationalrankings, and my boys did well,” saidMagqabiwho thankedTheOffice of theEx-

ecutive mayor Ben Fihla for assisting theteam with transport, accommodation andmeals during the trip to the Golden City.

He said his players paid only R150 eachto take part in the fights.

“Without the office of theMayor’s assist-ance, we would not have achieved this. Wewant to thank especially theMayor for theassistance,” said Magqabi, adding that theplayers who all come from disadvantagedcommunities are sometimes deprived ofthe opportunity to show their talents ow-ing to lack of funds.

“I used to charge players a joining feeand R10 a month subscription but wasforced to stop it because they cannot affordit. I now drive from Rowallan Park to thetownship every day Monday to Friday toensure that my students get the best train-ing ever,” saidMagqabi, who also owns an-other club at LilianNgoyi Sports Centre inKwaZakhele.

A Second Dan, Magqabi started playingjudo at Hoza under the tutelage of SenseiThembani Hlaso in 1988 and took over theclub when Hlaso, now SA Judo President,left for Johannesburg in Gauteng.
