POTENTIALcriminals, drugaddicts andva-grants have turned a dilapidated SherwoodPark house into their headquarters.The ruined residence, situated in Lower

Fifth Avenue, has been attracting unwantedelements into the streets of the usually quietarea, leading to locals demanding immedi-ate intervention.Policehavealready flagged thebuildingas

a hideout for thieves and the City of CapeTown confirms that the unsightly plot hasbeen in this condition for years.Irate residents refuse to accept the current

state of affairs, insisting that all avenues bevisited to restore thepride and safety of theirneighbourhood.The sea of refuse and rubbish on the plot

has led to a health hazard festering on his

doorstep, resident Taliep Legorden says.“People are dumping everything here.

There are flies and rats coming from thisproperty into our homes,” he says.The father of four demands that someone

take responsibility for the property's stateandmake thedecision to either demolish thealready ransacked site or rebuild it for re-sale. “It is attracting the wrong types of peo-ple. The characters who come here do drugsin the house and loiter around our streets,looking for stuff to steal,” he insists.Neighbour John Louw says pedestrians’

safety is at riskwhenwalking down that sec-tion of the road.“There are a lot of children who attend a

nearby school and walk this way everymorning. It’s not safe for thembecause thereare people who smoke drugs here and oftenrob those who pass by,” he says.

Another resident, who asks not to benamed, says the state of the house has hada definite impact on the crime level in herhometown. “ In the last couple ofmonthsmyfront gate has been stolen three times. I be-lieve the thieves were the people who some-times sleep inside the house,” she says.“There are alwaysdifferent people coming

here. Most of them often look into other peo-ple’s properties to see what they can steal.”The house’s illegal inhabitants may be to

blame for the rise in property theft in the vi-cinity, Manenberg police spokespersonLieutenant Ian Bennett says.And while police are doing all they can to

keep the incidents in check, he adds that res-idents also have a role to play.“We need a neighbourhood watch in this

area so that they can assist us by patrollingand reporting any criminal activities hap-

pening in their community.”Numerous meetings have been held with

residents to find solutions to the problemproperty, ward councillor Coetzee Ntotoviy-ane says. “The house is being used as a hideout for gangsters. We have told the policeabout the house and they committed to con-ducting regular patrols.”The property is registered as a hazard,

council confirms.Richard Bosman, the City of Cape Town’s

director for safety and security, says: “Thehouse has already been declared as a prob-lem building in terms of the City’s problembuildings by-law and is being investigated.”

THE planned train fare increase has com-muters derailed.They are demanding that Metrorail get

their act on track and give them a serviceworthy of a price hike.Come next month, those purchasing

monthly tickets will pay between R7 andR45 more, while weeklies will cost betweenR3 and R5 extra.A single train ticket will cost 50c more

and returns will rise by R1.Metrorail’s regional manager

Mthuthuzeli Swartz considers the increaseas “pro-poor”.“We were very conscious of the soaring

cost of living and imposed a modest in-crease as a result,” he says.The subsidy received from government

barely covers half the cost of operating therail service, Swartz explains.“The last financial year it cost us R1,2 bil-

lion rand to operate trains just in the West-ern Cape. By clamping down on fare dodg-ers, closing stations and conducting specialactions on trainswehavemanaged to recov-erR160million randmore than thepreviousfinancial year, exceeding our revenue tar-get by R8 million.”But external factors including increases

in the cost of energy, personnel, mainte-nance material and safety-critical and stat-utory compliance accounted for the majori-ty of the region’s expenses.Commuters are unimpressed by the

planned price hike.The train service provider has “a fine

cheek” to push up the fares of a “life-threat-ening service”, Mariam Jacobs says.She has resorted to leaving all her valua-

bles at home after being robbed on the traintwice this year alone.“The funny thing is it happened during

peak hour,” she says wryly.“The first time the guy pulled out a knife

and demanded my wedding ring and cell-phone, and about a month later a laaitiegrabbed and ripped my grandmother’schain frommyneck. Someof thepassengerstried to chase afterhimbuthegot awayeasi-ly.”The “missing in action” security officers

are nothing but “cowards in uniform” thatare never there when you need them,Jacobs adds.“Off-peak times, you find them stretched

out on the seats, taking a nap. Ten points,Metrorail;what away tomakeyour custom-ers feel safe.”Reagan Francis has been using rail trans-

port for two years as it is the cheapest wayfor him to get to work.But if he would have been able to afford

a pricier mode, he would make the changein a heartbeat.“Right nowwe are travelling on amobile

robbery hotspot because we have nochoice. Commuters are sitting ducks be-cause security guards are not half as visi-

ble as they should be,” he says.“If they should say the increase is going

towards employing additional security of-ficers, I will happily cough up. You put yourlife in danger by setting foot in a carriage,but if you can’t afford anything better, it’sa chance you have to take.”But Swartz points out that Metrorail has

increased their Protection Services compli-ment by 300 security members.A total of R12 million is spent on security

every month across the province.“We now have 1000 Protection Services

employees, about 800 contracted guardsfrom five different companies and 400 Rail-way Police officers protecting trains andstations,” he says.Vandalism remains rife in certain areas,

Swartz says, and the protection of vulnera-ble assets resulted in an “extra-ordinarymaintenance burden”.But, he continues, Metrorail has “aggres-

sively implemented” an action plan to “ar-rest the decline in service levels” over thelast year.Factory worker Shireen Ebrahim scoffs

at the “so-called improvement strategy”.“Not a week goes by without me getting

to work late at least twice,” she says.“There are only so many times that the

bosses will turn a blind eye. They havestarted clocking my hours, causing a de-crease in my wages.”Just last week, she says, it took her two

hours to get home owing to train delays.“I would be happy to pay extra if the serv-

ice was reliable, safe and up to standard.But right now, I don’t even think they de-serve a cent of my hard-earned money.Their service stinks.”Despite the never-ending stream of com-

plaints from disgruntled commuters, plansare in motion to improve the rail service.Among these developments are 33 addi-

tional trains taking to the tracks.A comprehensive programme of con-

structionwill also start soon to upgrade sta-tions and infrastructure to be completed by2015 when the first new trains are expected.

A PROJECT meant to be asteady source of income forthe unemployed of HanoverPark is instead leading toheaps of frustration.

Previously jobless localsare resorting to making cashloans and buying on credit tokeep their families going af-ter yet another month of latepayment from the Communi-ty Work Programme.

The workers are responsi-ble for street cleaning, work-ing in food gardens and pro-viding school security intheir areas.

The programme is a gov-ernment initiative aimed atcreating jobs in impoverishedcommunities.

But aggravated workerssay month after month theyare paid late, forcing them tobeg and borrow to make endsmeet.

Sadieka Valentine has beenpart of the programme forfour years.

“Since last year we havebeen getting paid late. We aresupposed to be paid on the10th of every month, but this never hap-pens.”

But Danny Rass, the project’s Cape Flatssite manager, says contractually they arebeing paid within the agreed upon timeframe.

“On their contracts it states that they willget paid within 30 days of their last workingday,” he explains.

The workers fall under three categories:unskilled staff who work eight days amonth; semi-skilled who also work eightdays a month; and skilled workers whowork 20 days a month.

He says the workers sign a monthly timesheet logging their hours, whereafter theysign a printed document confirming thatthe hours are correct.

Workers are then meant to be paid within30 days.

However, there have been instanceswhere the workers waited over a month forpayment, he admits.

“That could be because there was an errorwhen they submitted their ID numbers,leading to the ID number not corresponding[with our records],” he says.

He says another problem that could causedelays is when people change bank ac-counts and the more recent details have not

been correctly captured.Fatima Blankenberg, who is one of the

project’s team leaders, says the delay hasled to much frustration.

“Some of the workers go to make smallloans or take things on credit at shops andpromise to pay when they get paid, but noneof the workers know when exactly that is,”she says.

“People are always asking me when theyare going to be paid, but I tell them I don’tknow because I have not been paid myself.”

Wayne Jacobs, who is also part of the pro-gramme, says every month it’s a differentpay date. “Some of the people I work withhaven’t been paid for four months. I haven’teven been paid last month’s salary. I usual-ly work two days a week for five hours,” hesays.

Rass says the unskilled workers get paidR67 a day, while semi-skilled workers getR80 and skilled workers R95.

“If the workers have not been paid afterthe possible cause of delays have been recti-fied, they should go to their zone office andreport the matter to the site facilitator,” hesays.

“The facilitator will draw up a report sothat I can send the complaint to our headoffice.”

FOR residents at an informal settlement avisit to the toilet is amission. But safety andprivacy concerns can now be flushed awayas each household receives their own loo.Every dwelling in Smallville and Jim Se

Bos informal settlements in Philippi lastweek received their very own Porta Potty,a 20-litre portable toilet that will replace theoutside ablution blocks which were sharedamong families.Shantelle Minnies, the vice-chairperson

of the Smallville community, expressed de-light at the handover of the new portable toi-lets.“Everyone has been waiting for years to

have their own toilets. There are plenty ofchallenges people are faced with when theyhave to use these outside toilets and now fi-nally theywill be able to use the toilet peace-fully,” Minnies says.In the past, residents raised several con-

cerns about the outside toilets, with healthissues, safety for children and the distanceof the toilets topping their list.

Several residents are also believed to havefallen ill due to the chemicals used and theunhygienic state of the toilets.“No more doctor’s fees,” says a delighted

Minnies, as she watched the portable toiletsbeing off-loaded.Last week each household received their

new toilet, which clips onto a waste tank.Before the toilets are used, water is

pumped into the bowl, which eventuallyflushes the waste into the tank below. Eachhousehold also received a reserve tank,which is used when the waste tank needs tobe changed. The tank gets clipped off and isplaced outside each household for collectionby the contractor SaniCare.Eager to test drive the new portable toi-

lets, resident DannyAfrika grewmore excit-ed during the demonstration stage.“This is fantastic. Other people will not

understand how we feel about this, but forthe people here, it’s a huge thing,” she says.“Imagine getting up at 03:00 and you need

a toilet. The people here have to leave theirhouses, walk down a dark lane and then usethe dark mobile toilets outside. It really isnot nice at all.”Jeremy Damons could not stop smiling af-

ter collecting his Porta Potty and eventuallyrushedhome to findapermanent spot for thetoilet.“We are very happy. The people here have

beenwaiting for this for a very long timeandnow it’s finally here,” he says.Proportional representative councillor

George March explains that the new PortaPotty system is being rolled out to informalsettlements and will eventually replace out-side toilets.“The new system is a process that will

serve until the problemof housing is eventu-ally sorted out. The City of Cape Town is re-allyworking on building housing and, in themeantime, we are focused on improving ba-sic services at informal settlements,” hesays.With the introduction of the system also

comes an opportunity for job creation, some-thing which March is keen to achieve.He confirms that discussions are under-

way to employ threepeople from the commu-nity to ensure all waste tanks are ready forcollection by the contractor.The project will fall under the City’s Ex-

tended Public Works Programme.

“We hope to get the community to takeproper responsibility for these new toilets.We want to build on the success of thisproject and make sure the residents them-

selves have a hand to play in the success ofthe Porta Potty roll-out,” he says.The Egoli informal settlement is next on

the list to receive the new system.

A POLICY for the public to accompany on-duty LawEnforcement officers has been ap-proved by the City of Cape Town.Dubbed the Ride Along policy, the docu-

ment details circumstances and require-mentswhichwill allowcivilians to joinLawEnforcement officers on the job.Mayoral Committee member for Safety

and Security, JP Smith, says it is hoped thatthe public will be able to see first-hand “thechallenges facing Law Enforcement offi-cials every day, as they work towards en-suring a safe city for all the people of CapeTown”.The first-of-its-kind policy establishes the

required criteria and procedures for thepublic to ride in safety and security directo-rate vehicles.Only individualswithwritten

authority would be allowed.The department regularly receives re-

quests from the media, researchers, volun-teers, international visitingdelegations, po-licing agencies, community activists andneighbourhood watches to job shadow orride-along with the five policing and emer-gency services.“Allowing authorised members of the

public to accompany our Law Enforcementofficerswill hopefully contribute to the pub-lic’s trust in the work we do,” Smith says.The policy also stipulates safety require-

ments when approving a request. It is notintended as a delinquency prevention pro-gramme, but an educational endeavour toacquaint residents with the problems facedby the department.

THANKS to new equipment cancer patientscan receive radiation more swiftly atGroote Schuur Hospital.The Linac Particle Accelerator, which

processes and creates its own high-energyX-rays, was purchased by the provincialhealth department for R16m.AnotherR7mwas spent on infrastructure

to house the machine.The Addington Hospital in KwaZulu Na-

tal currently has two of thesemachines, butboth are out of order. The Groote Schuurmachine is the only one in operation at aState entity.Hester Burger, a physician at Groote Sch-

uur, said they can now treat cancer patients

with radiation twice as fast than before.“The biggest challenge we face at the hos-

pital is the number of patients,” she said.The hospital will now be able to treat 50

people daily. “The machine’s computer ca-pacity allows it to be more accurate and toradiate faster. It is one of the best technolo-gies in the world,” Burger said.The Linac produces its own electrons and

increases these nearly at the speed of light.It then converts the electrons into veryhigh-energy X-rays used in radiotherapy.Burger explained the machine has the

ability to radiate certain areas and protectothers.It is specifically effective in the treatment

of complex cancerswhich are difficult to ra-diate, such as the head, neck and throat.

PROUDLY MANENBERG hasslammed the City of Cape Town forissuing a fine to a bed-ridden, eld-erly woman.

Emily Roodt (73) has beenrapped over the knuckles by LawEnforcement over a shack she hadbuilt for her niece at the front ofher rental property in RhenosterWalk.

Angeline Claasen moved intothe structure last month in orderto take care of her elderly aunt.

Roodt has limited mobility andrequires constant care.

“My niece is the only one whocan look after me. I can’t walk be-cause one of my legs was amputat-ed five years ago. I also suffer fromarthritis,” she says, lifting up herstiff hands. “My niece has beenvery helpful.”

Classen says Roodt’s health re-cently took a turn for the worse,prompting her to step in.

As the majority of the councilhomes in her street have corrugat-ed iron extensions to their proper-ties, she didn’t foresee a problem,she says. “My aunt lives in a ‘two-bedroom’ house. The one roomwas converted into a dining room,but this is also where she sleeps.The other ‘room’ serves more likea kitchen, which is where my 17-year-old cousin sleeps,” she says.

The tiny house was too crampedfor her, husband and five-year-oldson to move in, leading to the deci-sion to construct their own homein the front. “Thismeant I could as-sist her during the day because I’m

unemployed and there is no oneelse who can look after her,” Clas-sen explains.

During construction, Law En-forcement officials visited thehouse and warned them to stoptheir building.

But the threat was ignored be-cause they “didn’t have a choice”.

Last month, Classen was issuedwith a R1 500 fine.

“It’s ridiculous, becausemyauntwas the only onewhowas fined yetthere are other houses with shackson the property too,” she argues.

Roodt says her pension is al-ready not enough to cover her liv-ing expenses and it will be difficult

for her to cough up the cash.“I have to pay rent,mywater bill,

a funeral policy and buy some gro-ceries,” she says.

ProudlyManenberg chairpersonMario Wanza demands that thefine is scrapped as Roodt’s situa-tion has extenuating circumstanc-es.

“They must not pay it. How canyou fine someone for assistingtheir own family member? It’s ri-diculous,” he argues.

“The State is supposed to pro-vide housing but they are failingto do that. That’s why people arefinding alternative ways so thatthey can live with their lovedones.”

A neighbour, Raymond Pie-tersen,was outraged at the issuingof the fine.

He previously took care of thepensioner while he was unem-ployed but has since found a job.“I don’t see what the problem iswith having the shack here.”

Richard Bosman, the City ofCape Town’s director for safetyand security, says officials actedwithin the law when the fine wasissued.

He continues that regulationsare put in place to ensure the safe-ty and well-being of all people liv-ing on a property.

“Ignoring any infringements ofthese regulations is unfair to thosewho go to the trouble of followingprocedures and the rule of law,” hesays.

Tenants whowant to erect infor-mal structures must make a for-mal application, in the interest ofsafety compliance, at their localhousing office before they beginconstruction in order to avoid laterdemolition.

“The City gives ample warningbefore taking decisive actionagainst residents that have notcomplied with regulations,” Bos-man says.

TARREN-LEE HABELGAARN

A NUMBER of communitymembers, organisations andhigh school learners got the op-portunity to satisfy their curi-osity with a visit to PollsmoorPrison on Thursday.The main purpose of the day

was to provide guests with aninside look at life behind barsand to create awareness of theDepartment of CorrectionalServices’ Reading for Redemp-tion campaign.Guests, offenders and Polls-

moor staff gathered at the hallin the women’s facility wherevisitors were entertained by in-mates throughmusic and dancebefore enjoying a real prison-style breakfast.Duringmorning prayers, Cor-

rectional Services employeeLinda Sithole reminded allpresent to take advantage of the opportuni-ties they are given.She specifically addressed inmates, say-

ing that though they are physically confined,their minds are still free.“Don’t let your minds be prisoners too.

Work on your dreams and goals and set yourmind free,” Sithole said.She also encouraged offenders to not let

their past define who they are.This all fits in with the aim of Reading for

Redemption, a campaign aimed at enablinginmates to forge better opportunities to edu-cate and uplift themselves through reading.Acting area coordinator of Development

and Care at the prison, Linda Fortuin, saidthe campaign will help to use reading as atool of empowerment for offenders.“Wearealwaysaimedat being thebest cor-

rectional facility and provide rehabilitationfor our offenders. Through reading, they areable to empower themselves and boost theirself-worth to function as best law-abiding cit-izens,” she said.All guests donated books and assorted

readingmaterial to theprison library.Fortu-in was thankful for the book boost, sayingit is important that everyone continue tosupport the campaign.“By doing that, at the end of the day we en-

courage offenders to read, learn and study,”she said.

Lindiwe Jonas, the manager of the femalecorrectional centre, gave guests a little moreinformation about the women’s facility,which currently houses 558 female inmatesand nine babies.She said if people think raising a child out-

side is difficult, it is even more challengingbehind bars.“Wedonot have enough things for the chil-

dren. An item such as a bib might seemsmall, but it is not always available. Some-times we just don’t have enough to give eve-ryone,” Jonas said.Asamother shewould like to call on every-

one to donate baby items as they are in greatneed of them. “People are usually willing todonate but there areprocedures andprotocolto follow. So I hope this will not stop peoplefrom donating,” Jonas said.Children stay with their mothers until the

age of two before being placed with familyor social services.At the event, author Carla van Spuy intro-

duced her new book, Man or Monster, an ac-count of the dual nature of people.Van Spuy conducted interviews with 11

murderers and said she was surprised bytheir charming natures.“I couldn’t match the crime with some of

the prisoners but you can’t work with crimi-nals if you don’t see the human,” Van Spuysaid.

She spoke to one man whocouldn’t even remember howmany people he had killed, sherecalled.It is for that reason that she

wanted to try and see if shecould get to know the man be-hind the monster and the mon-ster behind the man.For her book Van Spuy con-

sulted with many profession-als within the criminal justicesystem and besides interviewswith criminals themselves, shetouches on subjects such as liedetector tests and sketch art-ists.For her chapter on sketch

artists she said she inter-viewed a sketch artist whopointed out it’s difficult to tellif someone is a murderer bylooking at their face.She also touches on serial

killers and the fact that one no-torious killer himself once said, “We areyour sons, fathers and husbands; we are eve-rywhere”.Van Spuy said: “Everyone has a dark side

that they need to admit. It only becomes dan-gerous if you oppress this side.”Therefore it is important to nurture that

side, so you can manage it, she explained.The Area Commissioner for Pollsmoor,

Ntobeko Mketshane, thanked Lapa Publish-ers and everyone who donated books.He emphasised the fact that through Read-

ing for Redemption the sole purpose is reha-bilitating offenders. “Wewant to reintegratethem into society so that they become func-tional members. Reading is one of the bestways to build character,” Mketshane said.“We want to make reading a fun activity,

instill a love for reading and start a readingsociety within correctional facilities.“Thismustn’t be a place for locking people

up and throwing away the key, but a placeto get involved and return to the communityas functional members.”There are othermeans for inmates to reha-

bilitate themselves. Inmates are involved inperforming in a jazz band, mixed choir, andarts and crafts.The Department of Correctional Services

will at the end of themonth be launching thefirst arts and crafts gallery for offenders inGoodwood.

THE DEPARTMENT of Home Affairs isplanning to implement smart-card identitydocuments to replace the green book.This initiative was initially predicted to

take up to four years, but last weekministerNaledi Pandor revealed that the implemen-tation could take up to eight years. The newID card,which is aimed at preventing identi-ty theft, will be encoded with a unique mi-crochip. Here’s what readers had to say.

JOJOSEPHSEPH RISINAMHODRISINAMHODZIZI welcomes the idea, say-ing it would be much easier to look after the card.“It is easy for IDs to be damaged by water or fire,so the cards will be safer. It is a good investmentof taxes.” PHOTOS: TARREN-LEE HABELGAARN

LIZELLELIZELLE SMITHSMITH is all for the roll-out, although shefeels the elderly will oppose it. “Older people arevery religious and loyal, while younger people willwelcome the idea. It is more convenient, becauseyou can put it in your wallet or pocket.”

TRATRACEYCEY DEMASDEMAS gives the idea two thumbs up,but is wary of how it would be funded. “As longas the money comes out of the government’spockets, I do not mind. Each time they changetheir minds we have to pay for it.”

placed the Adderley Street NightMarket last year, attracting some 200vendors and 80 000 visitors.An initiative of the City’s Econom-

ic Development Department, themarket aims to attract visitors intothe central city during the peak holi-day period and create a festival at-mosphere.The outcomes of the Informal Trad-

ers Summit hosted by the City inMarch have been taken into accountin the staging of this market, whichaccommodates both the informal andformal sectors, and is open to tradersthroughout the Cape Town metro.Most of theCompanyGarden is giv-

en over to the market, with stallsstretching the length of GovernmentAvenue and taking in the lawns infront of the Iziko National Art Gal-lery and the Iziko Museum.Vendors are invited to apply for a

CCURURTLEY VTLEY VAN RAN ROOOOYENYEN says he’s not in favour ofthe cards, but can see the benefits. “I’ve got abad feeling about it, but at least it will be easierto carry than the ID book. You can carry it in yourwallet like your driver’s licence.”

FIEFIEZELZEL MOOSAMOOSA agrees that the smart-cards areindeed a smart idea. “It’s easier to have a cardinstead of a book. The card will be lightweight.And the microchip will cut down on corruptionand identity theft.”

ZZANELE YANELE YAMILEAMILE is against the new ID card, basedon its smaller size. “I prefer the green ID book.The card will be easier to lose because it is sosmall. What if I put it in my purse, and then losemy purse?”

JUSJUSTINTIN BENNEBENNETTTT is all for the new smart-cards.“It’s a good idea because it will reduce identitytheft. However, I think eight years is just too long.The cards should be implemented this year, eventhis day.”

THE City of Cape Town will continue legalaction against engineering company Au-recon, which was involved in the cleaningof the Athlone Cooling Towers.The City says although neither it, its offi-

cials or Aurecon were dishonest at anystage, therewere definitely “irregularities”in the leading up to the awarding of the ten-der to the company.Aurecon South Africa was responsible

for the cleaning of the obsolete AthloneCooling Towers.The contract was worth around R10m.The City wants the Western Cape High

Court to review its decision regarding theawarding of the tender on 31 October 2011.In court documents the City refers to

“various irregularities” in the process ofthe evaluation of applications, aswell as thefinal awarding of the tender.The view is based on an investigation by

Ernst&Young, conducted on instructionbycouncil.A final reportwas handed over to the City

in October last year.Meanwhile, this reporter ascertained

that Aurecon “definitely” opposes the law-suit.It still needs to file court documents in re-

sponse, after which a court date will be set.In a sworn affidavit the City’s director of

supply chain management, LeonardShnaps, states the City had the necessaryauthority to apply for a review of such a de-cision, especially when an administrationlaw has been conducted irregularly.

He adds that a public body is then not onlyentitled to, but also compelled, to raise thematter in court.Shnaps also emphasised that no fraud, dis-

honesty or corruption was committed by theCity, its employees or Aurecon.However, according to the investigation

there were “incidents of thoughtless behav-iour” at various stages of the process.One of the reasons Shnaps uses as an exam-

ple is that Aurecon had an unfair advantagein the awarding of the tender.The City is also internally dealing with

matters of concernhighlighted by the investi-

gation. “The City views the irregularities inthemanner inwhich the tenderwas awardedin a serious light. Disciplinary action has al-ready commenced against some officials.This process is ongoing, but I have been in-formed this information does not need to bemade known in this court application.”

EVEN during the bad old days,therewere good times in this coun-try.That’s what Music alla Kaap

aims to remind Capetonians of.Andwho better to do so than vet-

eran performer Alistair Izobell?He’s been enchanting crowds for

27 years and says he wouldn’tchange his career for anything.Having grown up opposite a fire

station, Izobell says hewas alwaysfascinated by the big red truck andhad wanted to be a fireman.But, thankfully, Izobell pursued

his love of performing.He started working in themusic

industry with childhood friendsEmo and Luqmaan Adams.“I’ve been lucky enough to work

with many people over the years,”Izobell says.“As a 12-year-old, spending time

with Stevie Wonder, meetingLuther Vandross and working inplaces like New York, Paris andLondon all leave a mark in yourmemory.”He could not point out a specific

highlight in his career as, he says,“every single show comes withmagic”.“I grew up in a time where peo-

ple saw the theatre as something magical,”he says.As a child growing up in the Western

Cape, Izobell feels he was lucky to surround-

ed by a lot of big artists, such as Terry For-tune and The Rockets.“So many musicians have passed on and

quite often it is us who need to bury them,”he explains.It is for this reason that he created Music

alla Kaap.“I wanted to make sure we create a plat-

form for these artists to be recognised andcelebrated.”Last year saw the first staging ofMusic al-

la Kaap.This year’s production is expected to be

bigger and better – featuring a star-studdedline-up of artists, which will include PercySledge, PJ Powers and The Rockets.“All the artists in the line-up share a com-

mon thread and similar journey,” he enthus-es.“They have all worked together at some

time along theway or have similar inspiringbackgrounds.”The Rockets were the backing band for

Sledge the previous time he performed inSouth Africa.“You have the Rockets, who have enter-

tained people for many years, along withPercySledge, anAfrican-Americanwhoalsoentertained people in a time when his coun-try was going through their own struggle.Then you have PJ Powers, a white womansingingAfricanmusic, and these are all peo-ple who, at the height of apartheid, weremaking the most amazing music,” Izobellsays.This iswhat he hopes to highlight through

Music alla Kaap.“I want people to tap into memories and

be transported to a time when we celebratedgreat music that was being made during adifficult time,” he says.When asked what he thought made the

Cape Town music scene stand out, Izobellsays: “Cape Town musicians in general dofull-on theatre and performance. They arenot really corporate-driven.“Johannesburg ismoremoney- and corpo-

rate-driven and Cape Town is performance-driven.”However, he says the industry isn’t just

glitz and glamour, but also is hard work andvery competitive.“It has changed a lot. Every second person

wants to be a producer or in the industry,but aren’t necessarily experts. That makesit difficult foruswho live, breatheandcreateentertainment.”He also points out that theatre is not what

it was before. “The magic of theatre haschanged – 25 years ago we embraced it andpeople dressed up,” Izobell says.However, in spite of these changes, Izobell

says he cannot imagine doing anything else.V Win! People’s Post readers stand a chance to winfour double tickets to Music alla Kaap at GrandWest’sGrand Arena on Friday 24 May. Visit www.peoples-post.co.za to enter.

GOLDEN ARROW buses will beback on the road by tomorrow(Wednesday).John Dammert, the spokesperson

for the company, says bus driversare expected back at work today(Tuesday).However, not all drivers would

have been informed and it is expect-ed that the service will fully resumeby Wednesday.This has led to sighs of relief from

commuters who have been forced touse alternative transport for almosta month.A wage settlement has finally

been reached between unions andemployers.“Theparties have agreed to a 9,5%

wage increase backdated to 1 April,with an additional increase of 0,5%to be effected on 1 October,” GoldenArrow’s Bronwen Dyke says.However, commutersmayhave to

brace themselves for delays.“Golden Arrow will institute all

measures to facilitate the restora-tion of scheduled services, however,due to the short notice, it may bepossible that all staff members arenot timeously informed of the end ofthe strike,” she explains.During the three weeks of strike

action, theworking classwashit thehardest, the Cape Town Chamber ofCommerce and Industry says.According to the group, workers

were forced to spend up to threetimes their usual amount on trans-port during the strike.Chairpersonof theChamber’sHu-

man Capital Portfolio Committee,Michael Bagraim, says this unex-pected increase forced workers totake loans from loan sharks or ad-vances on their salaries.“ The workers will feel the effects

of the strike long after it has ended,”Bagraim explains.Thebigwinnerswere theminibus

taxi industry and the loan sharks,

but the losers were commuters.“The strike [has not hurt] the

bosses nearly as much as the ordi-nary workers of Cape Town,” hesays.Commuters in possession of 10-

ride clip cards with an expiry dateafter 18 April with unused com-mutes, will be able to use it up until26 May. Monthly 48 ride clip cardswith an expiry date after 18 May,will be valid until 17 June.V For enquiries call the Transport Manage-ment Centre on 0 0800 65 64 63.

THERE is good and bad in everything. So goes the song.And it isn’t far off, especially when considering the im-

mediacy of social media and messaging services like Fa-cebook, Twitter and Whatsapp.At the weekend warning messages flew thick and fast

of an impending strikeby traindrivers overapaydispute.The warning read that train drivers were unhappy withtheir 5% pay hike.This warning was soon deflated, however, whenMetro-

rail issued a statement to the contrary, quelling all con-cerns that the rail driverswould join in the strikebyGold-en Arrow bus drivers.Metrorail regional manager Mthuthuzeli Swartz has

“assured commuters there is no talk of train drivers join-ing the strike”.In a fortunate turn of events, commuters can now also

breathe a sigh of relief that the bus strike has come toan end.The parties have agreed to a 9.5%across the boardwage

increase to be backdated to Monday 1 April.A statement to this effect says a settlement has been

reached and the enforced lockout would be lifted as ofmidnight last night.This should come as no small measure of comfort to

commuters who for these past fewweeks have had to con-tend with the throngs competing for taxis and trains, ormake arrangements with colleagues for lift clubs.If youhead for the freeways, all ofwhicheventually lead

to the city centre, leave even a minute late and you’re infor hours-long bumper-to-bumper traffic.The congestion snarls as tempers flare.The combination of public transport strikes – real or

imagined – and the onset of the Capewinter is a road ragerecipe waiting to happen.Cape Town drivers should know that, for nearly half

the year, every year, the roads are wet.But one can only wonder at the driving ability of some.I digress.Be careful what you read on social media.

Drug findings no surpriseTHE recent observations based on a surveydone on about 20 000 Grade 8 to 10 pupils onthe Cape Flats on substance abuse is neithershocking nor revealing.It is common knowledge that the youth in

our country abuse alcohol and cigarettes ona large scale because these drugs are legallyavailable and the very aggressivemarketingused by the companies makes it very tempt-ing for the youth to indulge in alcohol froman early age.Dagga is the first drug of choice because

of the false perception that thedrug is a total-ly harmless weed.The research is not very revealing be-

cause it does not present the true picture ofaddiction among school children in theWestern Cape.The findings create the erroneous impres-

sion that tik and heroin are not common.Based on my own experience, working in

an awaiting trial youth centre, 90%of the in-mates are addicted to tik, dagga, mandraxand cigarettes, and use alcohol.A huge number of these children have

started with dagga, the gateway drug, fromas young as eight years and progressed to us-ing tik and mandrax.These children drop out of school by the

age of 14, so very few tik-addicted childrenwould reach Grade 8.This group of children would be missed in

the study.Another common finding that I have ob-

served is that children on drugs rarely everadmit to using drugs, fearing they would ei-ther be punished or expelled from school.Some children have been using tik for aslong as four years before their parents be-came aware of it.I found that children addicted to substanc-

es are the most adroit liars.Many children presented to my rooms de-

nied most emphatically they used drugs.When the tests come out positive for drugsthey start getting aggressive, accuse thetests of lying and storm out of the rooms.Compounding the problem is the huge deni-al by parents about their children’s drug-ging.I treated a 27-year-oldman for cannabis-in-

duced psychosis.At the time of presentation he denied us-

ing drugs.It later emergedhe smokeddagga fromthe

age of 14, dropped out of medical school butmanaged to find a job. We managed to re-verse his psychosis after he stopped takingcannabis.The commentby theMEC for social servic-

es, Mr Albert Fritz, that the townships lackfacilities to help people with drug addictionbecause of a lack of finances for in-patientfacilities, displays a lack of knowledge aboutthe management of addiction.The success rate of rehabs is only about

2% so they are clearly not the answer to theproblem.His department has been relying on the ex-

pensive matrix programme and the limitedservices by Sanca.Many people, who have used the matrix

programme, have told me they did not findthe programme very effective. Sanca unfor-tunately operates during office hours and byappointment. These hours are not conven-ient for working parents, so many cannotuse their much-needed services.The problems do not need financial re-

sources, but a commitment from parentsand the community to attend and run sup-port groups.Themedia could play amore effective role

in advertising these meetings regularly, butthey are not prepared to do that. If they doadvertise your meeting, one has to gothrough so much red tape it leaves one towonder if the media is at all serious aboutthe problem. Promoting car guard singers,it seems, is far more exciting for some ofthem.I am willing to offer my very successful 4

Steps to Healing programme for free to thecommunity, religious organisations and theCity of Cape Town.

I have offered it to them in the past, butI had little or no response from them.Finally, if we do not have enough commit-

ment from the public, the chances of fightingand winning our battle against drug addic-tion are zero. Anyone interested in my pro-gramme can email me at [email protected] RapitiPeople’s Post regularly publishes storiesabout the effects of drug addiction on addicts,their families and society in general. As spaceallows, we also publish programmes availa-ble for addicts, including Dr Rapiti’s four-step programme. – Deputy Ed.

getting stuck behind a stalling learner canbe most irritating, but you, too, were oncea learner and if it weren’t for the patienceof others you would never be able to drivelike you do today.Judy Leibbrandt

PSL dream still aliveLIAM MOSES

SANTOS FC is still on target for promo-tion despite dropping vital points in a1-1 draw with rivals Milano United on

Sunday.A victory would have seen Santos leap to

the top of the table and virtually sew up pro-motion with just one more game to go in theNational First Division (NFD).

Instead, the People’s Team currently holdthird position and may have to earn their re-turn to the Absa Premiership through thepromotion/relegation play-offs.

Santos head coach Ian Palmer says he willspend the next week carefully planning forfinal game against Jomo Cosmos at Athlone

Stadium on Sunday.“I’m proud of them, but not proud of the

result as we needed the three points,” saysPalmer.

“We are still in with a shot and the gameagainst Cosmos will be similar to a final. Wejust have to plan well and I need to give (theplayers) a rest.

“It has been physically and mentally de-manding on them playing eight games in 15days.”

Mathematically Santos could till finish infirst, second or third, but whether or notthey win against Cosmos their fate will bedecided by the top of the table clash betweenfirst-placed Mpumalanga Black Aces andsecond-placed Thanda Royal Zulu.

The best result Palmer and his troops canhope for is a draw between the two title chas-ers, as this would give his side the opportu-nity to win the league and seal automaticpromotion.

Meanwhile, Milano United have complete-ly been ruled out of the running by the draw.The Grassy Park side took the NFD by stormin the beginning of the season, but a posttransfer window slump in form saw themslip down the standings.

Milano are currently fourth on the tableand will finish high, regardless of the resultin their final game against African Warriorsin Free State on Sunday.

However, coach Theo Hempe says histeam’s performance this season could still be

seen as a success.“When you look at my team there were

about eight players in the starting line-upwho came straight from the VodacomLeague,” says Hempe.

“We did a fantastic job and I am really hap-py for the team, and what they achieved. Wewill just go out there and try to enjoy our-selves (against African Warriors). Maybe wewill give some of the players who haven’thad a run in a while, the opportunity to showwhat they are capable of.”V Meanwhile, Vasco da Gama beat FC Cape Town 2-0in Sunday’s other Cape derby. The sides now hold ninthand 10th place on the table, respectively. Vasco willtravel to face FC AK in their last game, while FC CapeTown will host Dynamos.

Collegians strike late in derbyLIAM MOSES

COLLEGIANS RFC produced a resolute de-fensive performance to claim a hard-fought victory over rivals Surrey EstateRangers in a Premier League A clash onSaturday.

The Lentegeur side went into the half-time break leading 10-6, but slipped to an18-10 deficit before scoring 10 points in thelast 10 minutes to win 20-18.

Collegians’ coach Armien Ariefdienpraised his side for staying focused to winone of the oldest derbies in local club rug-by.

“This is one of those grudge games, so ob-viously we expected a tough game. In theend we won, which is great. That is all thatcounts,” Ariefdien says.

“I think we kept our composure. We wereunder pressure, but we kept our heads. Wewere behind 10-18 and we came back to winthe game. We knew that we wanted to win.”

Collegians were first to set the score-keepers to task when flyhalf Toyer Manuelgoaled a penalty attempt in the 15thminute.

Rangers responded with two penalties in

the 17th and 30th minutes through fullbackIsmail Scott, but the three-point lead lastedjust two minutes as Collegians inside cen-tre Raziek Isaacs burst through the defenceand beat two covering defenders to scoreunder the posts. Manuel slotted the subse-quent conversion.

The game opened up significantly in thesecond half and, after a Collegians playerwas yellow-carded, Rangers were the firstto benefit from the less structured play.

After camping in the Collegians 22 foraround eight minutes, lock AbdullahJacobs crashed over from the back of amaul, formed at a line-out.

The resulting conversion was missed byScott, but he succeeded with his next at-tempt, after left wing Rafieq Sieed poppedup in the centres to score Rangers’ secondtry.

Collegians then started their fight-backand after a yellow card reduced Rangers toten men, eighth-man Shafiek Jacobs forcedhis way over from close range. Manuel add-ed the extras and then put his side in thelead with a penalty in the 37th minute.

Ariefdien says his side’s organised andcommitted defending throughout the game

was the result of planning and long hoursof training.

“What’s the use of attacking well, but notdefending well? That is something we workon regularly,” he says.

“I’m not criticising Rangers, but you cansee they don’t really have a structure likeus. We try to perfect it, we got it right and,

obviously, it worked for us today.”Ariefdien, who was appointed at the be-

ginning of the season, thanked his coach-ing staff for making the victory possible.

Collegians will face Paarl RFC in Len-tegeur in their next game on Saturday 18May, while Rangers will host Sir Lowrianson the same day.
