SEBOKENG. - A family dispute ended ina house gutted by fire in Sebokeng, Zone 7last week. An argument between a motherand son erupted over a cousin who is alleged-ly a drug addict.Apparently the son, Ernest, accused his
mother, SelinahMashiqa (75), of standing upfor the alleged drug addict who had turnedtheir lives into a living hell. “Ernest fumedthat I was protecting his cousin and the fami-ly was dismantled. My son and his cousinstarted to quarrel and he promised to kill his
cousin since he was a useless addict. I askedhim to kill us all because he is also old anddoes nothing. Then the argument flew out ofcontrol. He promised to do something unfor-givable,” says Mashiqa.On Tuesday night the neighbours were cal-
led for assistance because the entire familywas trapped in the house, which was on fire.Apparently the son wanted to burn the entirefamily and the house. The family managedto escape the fire but the house was reducedto ashes. A bystander says, “This family hasbeen in disarray for a long time and they have
been fighting constantly. We are not surpri-sed by the end result but we are glad no-onewas injured. We tried to help out as muchas we could to stop the fire and move peopleout of the house.”Ward Councillor Lahliwe Rapapadi says
she has heard a report about the family andthat it’s painful for the family to resolve theirdispute in such a manner: “We are trying tofind amutually satisfying solution to themat-ter to solve the family dispute.”The family is pleading for community as-
sistance to rebuild their lives.

UNITASPARK. -The Lewane familyhouse was burned to cinders, leavinga whole family in disarray.This was af-ter a mentally ill woman apparently for-got to extinguish a candle during hercustomary prayer on Saturday night.Victim Nombulelo Lewane was trappedin the flaming house, screaming forhelp. It was alleged that she had lostthe key. “I was scared for her life. Shelost the key and I couldn’t break intothe house. The fire was blazing intense-ly. All I could do was also scream forhelp.” These were the words of Nombu-lelo’s younger brother Vuyisile Lewa-ne. Finally, Nombulelo was rescuedfrom the flaming house. Family andneighbours could not do much to stopthe fire as damage was done. Vuyisilesays there were no injuries to her sisterthough she was treated for trauma. “Weare glad she’s still alive. I thought shewas going to die. I would not forgivemyself if anything happened to my sis-ter. I’m still in shock,” said Vuyisile.
The younger brother further asked forcommunity assistance since there was no-one else as only the two of them are leftin the family. “Our parents have long pas-sed on. I am left with my sister who ismentally challenged,” says the devastatedVuyisile. Any sort of help the communitycan bring will be gladly received.
A mentally disturbed woman left a candle burning, which led to this house burning.

VANDERBIJLPARK. - There will - as hasbecome a norm - be no service from theEmfuleni municipal Emergency Fire andRescue from 16:00 to 18:00 and from 04:00- 06:00.
The two or three periods without essentialservices that have prevailed for two monthsare set to continue indefinitely.
Employees are using a strategy of ‘no pay,no work.’ This began over non-paymentover time and still prevails with EmfuleniLocal Municipality, ELM.
In cases of major emergency, ELM has ap-proached and appealed to the Democratic
Alliance-led Midvaal Local Municipalityand ArcelorMittal to step in. Dirk Marais,acting deputy chief of Emergency, Adminis-tration and Logistics in Emfuleni, agreedthat they have been unable to provide fullservice due to workers not willing to workovertime without pay. This has affected thesmooth operation of Services. However,Marais said contingency measures have beenput in place.
“We have reached a verbal agreementwith both Midvaal Municipality and a majorsteel company to come to our rescue whilewe are experiencing this predicament,” hesays. Two houses were reported to havecaught fire during the period when serviceswere rendered by Emfuleni.
Lehlohonolo Phahlane, manager: LabourRelations at Emfuleni Municipality, said thetwo unions - the South African Municipal
Workers Union (Samwu) and the Independ-ent Municipal and Allied Trade Union (Ima-tu) - have met to come up with an amicablesolution regarding overtime. Phahlane saidthe transcription was brought in but was re-jected because the union was not satisfiedwith some of the items discussed.
No overtime, no Fire & Rescue services
Lehlohonolo Phahlane, Manager of LabourRelations at Emfuleni Local Municipalitysays the twounions are still at loggerheadswith their employer.

MEYERTON. - A suspect at large since hisalleged rape of a foreign male teenager (19)recently handed himself over to Police.
Police spokesperson Constable Maria Maz-ibuko said a case of FCS (Family Violence,Crimes against Women and Children, andSexual Offences) was opened as per investiga-tion.
The victim told Police how he was broughtinto the country with the assistance of the sus-pect.
They went to a house the suspect claimedwas his. The two went into it and he was toldto strip off his clothes.
Then he was raped. After the ordeal, thesuspect let him go, he alleged.
The victim - through the assistance of peo-ple from his country - went to open a case atthe nearest police station.
According to Constable Mazibuko, whilePolice and relatives of the victim were search-ing for the suspect, the man handed himselfover to Police. The matter is still being investi-gated, she said.
Police could not elaborate on whether thesuspect handed himself over through his law-yer, as was alleged.
Captain Shado Mashobane said the case isstill under investigation by the Provincial FCSTask Team. The Court is waiting to get an in-terpreter of the suspect’s language so it canproceed with a hearing. Once the Court re-ceives the services of an interpreter of the sus-pect’s language, the case can proceed.
Currently there are no new developmentsregarding the matter, he said.

EVATON. - The communities of Hlala-se informal settlement section nearGraceland say time is ticking fast with-out any development.
Soon they would find themselves sit-ting in the middle of the Golden High-way.
The families, whose adrenalin hasstarted pumping very fast, say they haveoccupied the empty space for more thanthree years. The land is full of big rocks,surrounded by trees, has no electricity,water or toilets and has never been de-veloped.
Most of the residents asked to remainanonymous for fear of losing thousandsof rands they paid. They say their hopeis in the hands of the Emfuleni LocalMunicipality, ELM. Hlalase is situateda few metres away from the GoldenHighway.
The communities say they have losthope in the Evaton West SiyanqobaCommunity Development Centre ledby Jacob Mhlambi, chief director andMorena Mokwena, chairperson.
In desperate fear that they would beleft behind, they said: “What we wantnow is for ELM to come up with properdevelopment.”
According to documents in the handsof Sedibeng Ster, people conceded thatthey had paid for services that nevermaterialised. They were allegedlypromised that water and sanitation
would be rendered by Emfuleni.The sales agreement document
signed by Mokwena as managementtwo years ago indicates that SiyanqobaCentre operates as an Agent for sellingthe residential sites for OCWEN In-vestments 85 (Pty) Ltd, Reg No:2000/018836/07. Terms and conditionare that an administration fee is re-quired and non-refundable.
Some of the families said they paidup to R10 000 cash for registration, pa-perwork and installation of a seweragesystem. The monies were apparentlypaid at the office of Siyanqoba Centreand to someone known as Jeff in theATM at Evaton Mall.
The families said they have builthouses according to the stands num-bered on the map.
There are people who purchaseddouble stands: “What we are waitingfor is for the municipality to installwhat has been promised.”
Bius Ntombela an alleged EmfuleniLocal Municipality worker apparentlypromised the community to informMetsi-a-Lekoa to install water pipes.This comes after one of the stand-own-ers complained that all the informalresidents collect water from her tap. Amakeshift tap has been installed aboutfive houses away from hers. There areno proper roads.
“The hopes of the community wereraised immediately after Metsi-a-Lek-
oa workers arrived for inspection,” theysaid.
A reliable, well place source at the munic-ipality said the area was left undevelopedbecause of the big rocks.
The contractor said there’s no way thecommunity could occupy such dolomitic ar-ea. The area is too expensive or difficult fora bulldozer to push those big rocks.
“Siyanqoba Centre has been blamed foridentifying the land without consultationwith the government,” said sources.
Emfuleni Local Municipality spokesper-sonStanley Gaba said no one owns the landof the government:
“People must stop paying. The next thingis that they demand answers from the gov-ernment.”
He promised to visit the area with thementioned managers of the Centre.
Tick tick, community wantsto barricade Golden Highway
The community of Hlalase section in Graceland near the Golden Highway say they have had enough of the long wait for development.

and Tshepang (4) died inside a burninghouse. The incident happened at WalterSisulu Section in Zamdela recently.The fact that the two children were

and arson, said Sergeant Mapamela.Nobody has been arrested or chargedin connection with the case.Police are waiting for the father to re-cover and be released from hospital toobtain more information.

EVATON. - Learners from Zitha PrimarySchool together with community membersshared the importance of wetlands throughsong and dance. The youth’s lyrics drove themessage home to approximately 500 com-munity members and dignitaries who filledthe Mafatsane Community Centre to partici-pate in World Wetland Month activities intheir locality.The event was organised by the Gauteng
Department of Agriculture and Rural Deve-lopment’s Sustainable Resources Manage-ment directorate, in partnership with Emfu-leni municipality. Twelve-year-old Neo Mo-gotsi filled her goody bag with giveawayprizes courtesy of the Rand Water Foundati-on awareness team. Mogotsi outdid herschoolmates by answeringmost of the barra-ge of questions.
They were quizzed about wetlands, wherethe country sources its water and how scient-ists detect and treat disease-inducing waterorganisms.“I am concerned that if people continue
to resist paying for the water they use, go-vernment may not afford to buy equipmentand chemicals to ensure that the water we
drink is safe for consumption,” Mogotsi ela-borated when asked about her enquiringmind and obsession with water discussions.The Department of Agriculture and RuralDevelopment Veterinary Services Chief di-rector Dr Malcolm De Bude said that thisyear’s theme is relevant and rightly calls onyoung people to actively participate in pro-tecting the environment. He stressed that theyouth are torch bearers who need to get in-volved in seeking solutions to the challengesin their locality. The community, armed withgloves and masks, defied the scorching heatand cleaned the area around the wetland. TheEkhuruleni Environmental ManagementMMC Vuyelwa Mabena called on the com-munity to take care of their surroundings.She said that the community should be theeyes and ears of government and report anychallenges timeously to ensure that officialsresolve problems before they escalate.Other partners included the Gauteng Wet-
lands Forum (GWF) and South African Nati-onal.
A board making people aware of the vari-ous species dependent on theMafatsane wet-land was unveiled on the day.

Experience has taught me never to becomea coward. It has taught me never to retreatand it has also taught me the meaning of ac-cepting the things I cannot change. I writethis with a heavy heart as this week I amlaying to rest someone who is dearest to me,one of the pillars of my strength.No one wants to die. Even people who
want to go to heaven don’t want to die to
get there. And yet death is the destinationwe all share. No one has ever escaped it. Andthat is as it should be, because Death is verylikely the single best invention of Life. It isLife’s change agent. It clears out the old tomake way for the new.It is not how much you know about life
but how you live your life that counts. Thosewho can avoid mistakes by observing themistakes of others are most apt to keep freefrom sorrow. In a world full of uncertainties,the record of what has gone before - humanexperience - is as sure and reliable as anyt-
hing of which we know.To live means to experience through
doing, feeling, thinking. Experience takesplace in time, so time is the ultimate scarceresource we have.Over the years, the content of experience
will determine the quality of life. Thereforeone of the most essential decisions any ofus can make is about how one’s time is allo-cated or invested.”Whoever said that loss gets easier with ti-
me was a liar. Here’s what really happens:The spaces between the times you miss them
grow longer. Then, when you do rememberto miss them again, it’s still with a stabbingpain to the heart. And you have guilt. Guiltbecause it’s been too long since you missedthem last.“As the traveller who has once been from
home is wiser than he who has never left hisown doorstep, so knowledge of one otherculture should sharpen our ability to scruti-nize more steadily, to appreciate lovingly,our own.” - Margaret MeadTill we meet again. Lala ngoxolo Mira.Lerato

SEBOKENG. - Three district officials and thedistrict SGB official were unable to calm theangry parents of Lefika Primary schoolchil-dren last Tuesday morning.Parents took a stand on Tuesday to ‘take
the bull by the horns’. The acting school prin-cipal and the entire teaching staff were lockedout of the school by furious parents.The gate and fence between parents, and
teachers and the principal, were the only me-diators there to calm the situation down asverbal wrestling ensued between the three.It is alleged that the school principal does
not hear or respect the views of parents. Pa-rents claim that the acting principal is rudeand treats them like illiterates. Some parentsclaim there are a number of cases they perso-nally reported to the District officer that havegone unattended.They dispute the manner in which the Stu-
dent Governing Body (SGB) is run.
SBG chairperson Morena Mabatoane toldSedibeng Ster there was a case of assault inwhich a teacher allegedly slapped a child andthe parents were fuming for revenge. The dis-trict official did not act.“We had about five meetings in a space of
two months. We had complaints and claimsabout the principal. Nothing has been done.I don’t know what they want here becausethey failed to respond to our grievances,” saysthe SGB chairperson.While talking to the media, parents locked
horns with the school principal who, it is clai-med, called one of the parents a ‘rubbish’.There was nocomment from the principal,who would not say a word to the media.The three district officials said they also
had nothing to say to the media, and parentsasked them to leave the premises. Mabotoanesays they arewaiting for the right and relevantperson from the District to ‘address us as pa-rents and not as animals’.

The third project discussed was a learnerprofiling system, throughwhich the challengesof learners in each school can be understood,so that teachers and tutors can assist to remedytheir problems from a young age.
Midvaal’s MMC for Social Services, RobJones, says, “Because most of the educationfunction sits at District and provincial level,rather than at local municipality level, localgovernment tends to become distant fromschools in the area. This Forum allows us to

EVATON. - Mojalathuto Primary School inEvaton last year won first prize (R25000) aft-er teaching more than 753 learners to takecare of the environment.Mojala-Thuto managed to collect 183 040
cans in total over the course of the year, win-ning themselves first prize in Category One.This was through the Collect-a-Can Na-
tional Schools Competition which seesschool children collecting as many cans aspossible to clean the environmet and to en-sure that their school comes out on top.This year’s Collect-a-Can National
Schools Competition kicked off on Sunday,February 1, providing schools with an excit-ing opportunity to raise additional funds fortheir schools.“The National Schools Competition pro-
vides the perfect opportunity for schools toraise funds while teaching learners about theimportance of a clean environment,” sayscurrent project organiser at Mojala-ThutoPrimary School, Gerald Likhama.
Zimasa Velaphi, public relations and mar-keting manager at Collect-a-Can, says, “Mo-jalo-Thuto Primary is truly an example to allother schools to participate in this competi-tion. Just by collecting cans, any school cangenerate an extra income or win big prizeswhile teaching the learners about a clean,green and healthy environment.” Velaphiadds that money won from this competitioncan help schools achieve various things.“This year, Mojala-Thuto would like to chal-lenge Qhoweng Primary School (third prizewinners and rivals in the region), to showwhat they are made of and collect even morecans to contribute to protecting the environ-ment – every recycled can counts.” Velaphiconcludes.For more information about Collect-a-Can

VEREENIGING. - General Smuts HighSchool has once again shown irrepressiblespirit on the grandstands at the annual Veree-niging/Meyerton Interhoër athletics meetingwhere they won both the Best Cheerleadersand Best Team Spirit trophies.They also won the Spirit Trophy at the En-
glish Interhigh meeting.As the co-ordinator, Aletha de Klerk said:
“The ‘cherry’ of winning was a bonus; the
‘cake’ of enjoying the day was that it wasreally all about Smuts and you don’t haveto wear a cape to be a hero, just wear a Smut-sie blazer!”The theme this year was “Heroes”.The 200 spectators’ spirits were buoyed
by the love and respect for their very ownhero, Mr Ronald Bartie, who has been head-master of the school since 1995.
His outstanding leadership, dedication
and inspiration will be sorely missed afterhe retires at the end of April this year.The entire performance on the stand was
dedicated to him, and there was not a dryeye in the house as the banner bearing hisphotograph unfurled across the stand to thetune of “You Raise me up” during the ope-ning sequence.
There was not a moment of quiet throug-hout day, with colourful displays of cloth,shakers, pompoms, drums and cheering.Cheerleading has become an integral part
of the educational extra-mural programmeand continues to shape leaders by providingopportunities for the learners to practise dis-cipline, team participation and tenacity.
He’s not just a Headmaster, he’s our Hero!HHee’’ss nnoott jjuusstt aa HHeeaaddmmaasstteerr,, hhee’’ss oouurr HHeerroo!!

MooiVaal Media does not accept any responsibilityfor more than one faulty placing.
It is not as if TOUCHLINE ran away fromits responsibility, but being part of the Emfu-leni Local Football Association executivecommittee would be like “selling my soul”or compromising my profession. It has beena while now since some officials have beentrying to persuade yours truly/TOUCHLI-
NE to be part of the local football leadershipstructure, but there would be toomany com-plications.TOUCHLINE really appreciates the con-
fidence that local coaches and officials havein me, and it is always my desire to leadfootball development in this region. Yet Ican only serve in committees that providetechnical support - not in the executive com-mittee.TOUCHLINE doesn’t have to be in the
executive committee to make a differencein our local football.
That doesn’t mean all of us should bepart of the executive committee in this regi-on. There must be people who have use forthose sub-committees that will be formedafter elections. TOUCHLINE can only ser-ve in those sub-committees.Football doesn’t only exist in the boar-

TOU-CHLINE’s message to those who reallywant me to serve in the Emfuleni LocalFootball Association executive committeeis: I will avail myself for those sub-commit-tees.

MEYERTON. -AquaVaalHengel Club orga-nised one of the biggest Carp Competitionswith high `scales’ (handicaps) for members.These were designed to put them on the
spot.With 69 participants, all ‘spices’ - fishes
- had to weigh 18,2kg for completion.The event was hosted at the Vaal Dam at
Oranjeville recently.The trio Banda received gold in the mas-
ters, Charl van der Watt gold in the seniors,while Jacques Eigenhuis received silver in thejuniors.Banda, aMidvaal senior traffic officer, said
he was motivated and roped in by Eigenhuisin October.Having attended two competition catching
few fishes, it was a dream come true, saidBanda.He was the only African who participated
but that made no difference as he was wel-
comed with open arms in the sport he sudden-ly loved:For one to be highly recognised, you have
to catch best weight to lead the pack in thescale.”Speaking about the catch weigh and keep,
he said after the catching, “We released thosefishes back into the river. The gold medal re-ceived has encouraged me to participate andprove my strength.”Banda is looking forward to another com-
petition to be hosted in Bloemhof Dam, NorthWest Province.In the competition one has to prove his or
her ability through own good equipment thatrequires good standards.The participants will compete with clubs
at Free State Province.The event is aimed at dribbling through to
other provinces. The last stage of the competi-tion is national with the winners obtainingSouth Africa green jackets.

VANDERBIJLPARK. - One of the first offi-cial Knowledge Generation Projects of theKaizer Chiefs Innovation Centre will be ba-sed on the Vaal Triangle Campus of theNorth-West University, NWU Vaal.This is a practical research project that will
see academics from the Department of Indus-trial Psychology take to the sporting pavilionin the weeks to come.Researchers will – together with Kaizer
Chiefs - investigate factors that contributetowards the levels of motivation of sportsfans as well as the development of psycholo-gical identification with a particular sportsteam.According to Ederick Stander, the Subject
Chair of Industrial Psychology on the VaalTriangle Campus, the research is aimed atbetter understanding the South African sportconsumer, especially in the context of muchsought-after sporting codes like soccer.“Through this practical research initiative
we will be able to provide Kaizer Chiefs exe-cutive management with greater insight anddata breakdowns of why exactly differentgroups - within their current fraternity of fans- react to and identify so strongly with theKaizer Chiefs brand,” explains Stander.Another aim of the research initiative is to
better understand fan behaviour to enable theclub to further fine-tune their marketing and
engagement strategies. Honours students inthe programmes Industrial Psychology, Hu-man Resources and Labour Relations, will al-so get the opportunity to participate as field-workers on the project as part of their ‘practi-cum’. The latter refers to their OrganisationalBehaviour module.The first round of the project took place
over the weekend when the “Glamour Boys”played their arch rivals Orlando Pirates in theSoweto Derby - one of the most fiercely con-tested games in world football.The project forms part of the Campus’s
mandate to act as a knowledge-resource part-ner to the club by means of the Kaizer ChiefsInnovation Centre. This centre will officiallybe opened in May this year.The projects for 2015 include delivery of
accredited certificate courses to the KaizerChiefs Youth Academy staff, as well as deve-lopment of ‘Life after Football’ Interventionsaimed at the current Kaizer Chiefs players.NWU Vaal and Kaizer Chiefs announced
their unique partnership in October 2013 andthe partnership sees the University availingits expertise to benefit young talented foot-ballers at the club’sYouthAcademy in Johan-nesburg.The Centre for Continuing Professional
Development (CCPD) on the Vaal TriangleCampus will furthermore serve as the point
of contact between the football club and ex-perts across the University. The expertise willbe specifically utilised to develop young foot-ball players in totality and therefore includesnot only playing skills.The NWU will provide consultancy and
advice on a wide variety of topics. These in-clude finance, nutrition, psychological prepa-ration for high performance sport and physi-cal conditioning. The footballers will be de-veloped in academic and professional fieldsin order to prepare them for life after theirprofessional football careers.In addition to the marketing benefits of
the association with a world-renowned brandlike Kaizer Chiefs, the NWU will strengthen
its third stream income revenue through theimplementation of expertise.Another result of the collaboration bet-
ween Kaizer Chiefs and the University is theKaizer Chiefs Innovation Centre located onthe Vaal Triangle Campus. This centre – afirst of its kind within the higher educationsphere - will grant staff and students as wellas supporters from the local community, theopportunity to experience the total KaizerChiefs brand experience. The partnershipwith Kaizer Chiefs is proof of the NWU’sgood reputation as a research institution withan excellent knowledge-base and as an inter-nationally recognised destination for sportsdevelopment.

MEYERTON. - On Sunday March 1, SouthAfrican amputee para-triathlete Stan An-drews competed and placed 9th overall inthe 2015 Buffalo City ITUWorld Paratriath-lon Event.The event hosted a total of 39 top male
and female international para-triathletes inall five categories.The men’s PT4 category held the fiercest
competition with 16 entrants (six of whomwere South Africans) of the total 39 entrantstaking part in this category.Andrews reported the swim to be tough
with a heavy side current that affected allthe competitors equally.Entrants were given the opportunity to
make use of a ‘pre-transition’, where athletesare able to remove their wetsuits and put ontheir prostheses in an area near the water.Despite having competed in many other
triathlons, the ‘pre-transition’ was a first forAndrews, who felt that it cost him valuableseconds, causing his Transition 1 time to be30 seconds slower than in previous events.The bike course went well for Andrews,
who feels that cycling is his weakest disci-pline of the triathlon events.The wind played into his hand and helped
his climb back up the express way, leavinghim ready to jump into Transition 2 after twoloops. The run was challenging for Andrewswho, after overtaking fellow South Africancompetitor Nico Nel, was in 10th place 28seconds behind Spaniard Rafael Solis Tor-res.Ultimately, Andrews placed 9th out of the
field due to the disqualification of a fellowcompetitor, the reason for which is un-known, and was the first South African tofinish.In nine weeks’ time, Andrews will com-
pete in Egypt with the goal of scoring enoughpoints to compete in the Grand Final in Chic-ago, USA.Stan wishes to thank all those whose con-
tributions made this weekend a success,namely TSA and Buffalo City, as well as Bi-ogen and NoExcuses who contributed to thecost of the trip.* Stan grew up in Meyerton, attended
school at Meyerton Primary and then Gener-al Smuts High.He now resides in Roodepoort. The Mid-
vaal municipality will be hosting a 5km funwalk onMarch 21 inMeyerton and the bene-ficiary of the walk will be StandwithStan,
a non profit organisation he founded in 2013.StandwithStan provides disadvantaged am-putees with prosthetics, mentoring and
maintenance-training for the prosthetic in or-der for the amputee to regain mobility anda higher quality of life.

SEBOKENG. - As Sedibeng Ster - for-merly Vaal Weekly - predicted ten yearsago, Thabo “Jomo” Rakhale has beco-me a household name.This newspaper predicted the future
of this dazzling Orlando Pirates midfiel-der beneath the headline “Destined tobecome a household name”.This Sebokeng-based sensation mes-
merised soccer fans who packed theFNB Stadium to capacity during the So-weto Derby between Kaizer Chiefs andOrlando Pirates on Saturday.Rakhale came in as a `sub’ and im-
mediatelymade an impact that much de-lighted Pirates supporters.Hewas a swift crowd favourite, to say
the least.
Rakhale started his amateur soccer careerwith the local soccer team Junior Lions FC.His rise to stardom came when he went toPotchefstroom’s North West University tostudy Sports Science.He established himself as a top footballer
while studying.Speaking to Sedibeng Ster Sport, Rakhale
says it was all about hard work to achievethis in a short space of time.Rakhale started his professional debut
with Polokwane City before Pirates calledhim back from a loan spell with the club.Rakhale says education is key to any yo-
ung person regardless of whether he or sheis playing sports or not.“I’m grateful for the support I receive
from all the Sedibeng people because if itwasn’t for that support I don’t think I would
be where I am today.First I made sure that I got the best educa-
tion and after that I focused on my footballcareer,” says Rakhale.Many local soccer fans believe that Rak-
hale is following in the footsteps of formerOrlando Pirates dribbling wizard and homeboy Steve ‘Chippa’ Lekoelea, who was alsothe crowd favourite.He says he is excited to be compared with
Lekoelea because he grew up admiring him.He adds, “I get excited when people say
I’m following in the footsteps of Chippa be-cause, when I was young, he was my rolemodel and even today I admire him.”Rakhale says his short-term goal is to play
for Bafana Bafana.No doubt, with his current performance,
the boy deserves a national call up.
As predicted - Rakhale a household name!
