Natalspruit Hospital management has taken a decision to suspend evening visiting hours as from 1 March, says the Acting Chief Executive Officer for Natalspruit Hospital, Doctor Patricia Afrika. She said that the suspension is one of the measures taken by management to strengthen security in the hospital. “We have accessed internal security records and picked up incidents of violent crimes, namely, one of our staff members was attacked with a firearm and money was taken. In another incident, a security officer was attacked by the parents of a deceased patient. There are also stolen vehicles being parked at the institution and some are being stolen while parked at the hospital. The belongings of the members of staff are stolen; hence they have to lock their offices when going to the toilet and the kitchen. The hospital is no longer

safe anymore.”“We don’t have adequate security personnel to cover all the areas that need to be guarded. We are aware that the suspension of the visiting hours will inconvenience the public; however we should not wait until we experience a loss of life. We will monitor the situation for six months starting from the first of March,” said Afrika.Vuyo Sibani, public relations officer of Natalspruit Hospital said, “Crime is a challenge, the suspension will protect the patients and members of staff. We are sympathetic and

fully aware of the people who are working during the day who are unable to visit their relatives or friends during the afternoon visiting hours. However, security is the key priority.”The evening visiting hours which will be suspended were from 19:00 to 19:30. The remaining visiting hours are from 14:00 to 16:00 pm.

The sound of applause fi lled the air at Alberton Civic Centre Hall when Thuto Lesedi High School pupil Wendy Khumalo was named queen of public speaking for her performance on the topic of “Ekurhuleni has the highest HIV-prevalence rate. How do we step up the pace in the fi ght against HIV/AIDS, STIs and TB?” Wendy scooped the fi rst prize following an intense debate involving 10 schools selected from across the Metro. An ecstatic Wendy said she was going to use the information she had gained throughout the debate competition to spread the word about issues of HIV and Aids to her peers. “There is a lot to be learned and understood about the prevalence of HIV/Aids in Ekurhuleni,” she said. Ekurhuleni holds these debates annually

to promote accurate knowledge about HIV/Aids and reproductive health. Addressing the learners, Member of the Mayoral Committee (MMC) for Health and Social Development, Cllr Makhosazana Mabaso, said these debates serve as a platform to break the silence and tighten fi sts in the fi ght to reduce the rate of new HIV infections.“In a municipality with the second highest prevalence of people living with HIV in the country, our responsibility is to keep our young people talking about issues relating to the scourge of HIV and Aids. The more we talk about HIV/Aids, reproductive health, tuberculosis and Sexually Transmitted Diseases, the more people will become knowledgeable and equipped to deal with them,” she said.

Rebontsheng Primary School has temporarily suspended school vendors due to the sudden death of 8-year-old learner Siyabonga Dlamini.The medical post-mortem revealed that Siyabonga had swallowed a whistle. It is alleged that he bought the whistle from the school vendors, then put it in his mouth, swallowed it and it choked him to death.The unfortunate incident triggered rage, which led to the School Governing Body (SGB), community and parents questioning the quality of products sold by vendors to unsuspecting learners in the school. SGB Treasurer Sipho September said: “We made the vendors aware of the incident. The SGB, community and parents fi nally came to a conclusion and we confi scated the vendor’s merchandise. We will hand over the merchandise to the Department of Education to make them aware of the horrible conditions learners are faced with daily. Hence, vendors’ operations have been temporarily suspended.” They were stunned when they discovered

that some of the vendor’s sweets were not properly packaged. September said some of the merchandise’s expiry dates were not stated on the containers. Siyabonga’s grandmother, Agnes Dlamini (41), said it is high time that vendors operating on the school premises were permanently suspended. She said her grandson’s dream was to be a traffi c cop. “We are disappointed because we played a vital role during the upbringing of the boy. However, death cheated us of the opportunity of having a traffi c cop in our family. Siyabonga was fi nally buried at Dawn Park Cemetery,” concluded Agnes Dlamini.

“Many patients visiting Ekurhuleni clinics have not been able to receive the medicine they require,” said Geoff Fenn, a DA Councillor in Ekurhuleni.“The continued drug stock-outs raise concern as easily available medicines such as aspirin, iron supplements, folic acid and amoxycillin have not been accessible to those in need, despite these drugs having multiple manufacturers,” said Fenn.He said the situation has left many patients having to go to privately owned pharmacies to purchase the drugs they require, while other patients who cannot afford to buy medicines have to go without, which has a serious impact on their health. “Stock-outs of these basics are inexcusable. With the completion of our own drug storage

depot at the former Katlehong North Clinic, one would hope that drug stock-outs will become a thing of the past, as real action needs to be taken to ensure decent health care for the people of Ekurhuleni,” he said.He added that the DA is concerned about the reported vandalisation of the old Natalspruit Hospital. Fenn said the DA in Ekurhuleni welcomes the planned conversion of the old Natalspruit Hospital into a drug rehabilitation centre, “as the facility will be able to accommodate the growing communities and the social ills that are gripping many of our youth,” he said.

Medicine shortage hits Ekurhuleni clinics

The following arrests were made by Vosloorus Police Station members from 16 to 22 February:

Dawn Park Police Station members arre sted six suspects from 13 to 15 February during a stop-and-search operation in the area. The suspects were arrested for various criminal charges, including pointing with a firearm, theft, selling liquor without a valid

license, possession of stolen copper cable and possession of dagga. The suspects are expected to appear in Vosloorus Court. Katlehong police spokesperson Mega Ndobe said it was a joint operation between police and Ekurhuleni Metro Police Department personnel.

A male suspect in his early 20s allegedly entered a house in Vosloorus unnoticed, raped two young women at gunpoint, robbed them of their valuables and left the scene, leaving the victims traumatised. According to one victim, the brutal incident took place at midday at her parents’ house in Vosloorus. “I was with my young sister and my female friend when we saw a male suspect inside our house pointing at us with a gun.”“The suspect fastened our hands, making it impossible for us to walk without aid. He took us to separate rooms before he raped me and my friend in succession. My young sister

was fortunate not to be raped,” explained the victim. After raping both friends, the suspect took away two cellphones, two DVDs, a laptop and leather bag and left the house. The victim said the suspect was wearing glasses and covered his face with a scarf, making it difficult for his victims to recognise him. Vosloorus Police spokesperson Piet Rossouw confirmed the two rapes and the house robbery incident which took place in Vosloorus. “We are looking for any possible lead that could help in the arrest of the rape suspect. People who have information are welcome to inform Vosloorus police officers. T heir names will not be divulged,” said Captain Rossouw.

Maria Matee’s dream of celebrating her 101st birthday finally came true after her story was published in a

previous issue of the tame TIMES newspaper.The event was held at her house in Vosloorus Basothong Section over the weekend and attended by local political dignitaries, friends, family and neighbours. Her actual birthday was on 8 January, but due to financial constraints the celebration was temporarily postponed. Her daughter-in-law Sepati Motsoeneng highlighted to the newspaper the challenges they faced to make Granny Matee’s special day possible: “People read the story in the newspaper and sponsors finally came on board. This is an historical encounter because not many people reach three digits in their lifetime. I am grateful to the Vosloorus Police Station spokesperson Piet Rossouw for introducing us to the tame TIMES crew which made this day possible.” Ward 44 Councillor Sammy Mahoaladi cited that Botshabela Street in Vosloorus is blessed to have two grannies who are 101 years old, namely Maria Matee and her long-time friend Elizabeth Thobakgale. He urged the youth to respect their elders so that they can live and celebrate birthdays for many years to come. Ward 44 South African National Civic Organisation branch (SANCO) chairperson Ramalikoe Mphane said they initially thought Maria Matee had already passed on. “We wish her many more years to come. It is vital to take this opportunity to remind fellow South Africans not to abuse senior citizens. We will be visiting all our members who are 80 and above and we will soon unveil a veteran’s desk to tackle senior citizens’ challenges. We thankful for all our sponsors and Spar for donating the biggest birthday cake for Granny Matee.”

Granny’s birthday wish finally granted

The Danone Cup officially commenced from February 16, pitting primary schools against each other in six mini-leagues in the Ekurhuleni South District. Ekurhuleni South District teams are eager to wrestle the cup from current district champions the Katlehong based Siyanqoba Primary School. Speaking to tame TIMES, Danone Cup Provincial Coordinator Thulathula Sibeko said teams are expected to play a minimum of 6 to 7 games in their respective leagues. “We are delighted about the preparation at this stage and optimistic that we will move to the next level of the competition in the time s c h e d u l e d . A total of 75 teams from Kathorus will be competing in the six mini-leagues stage of the competition. All top teams in their respective leagues will qualify for the district championship final at the beginning of May,” said Sibeko.

He said the champions of the Ekurhuleni South District will be given gold medals and move to the Ekurhuleni regional championship. Three champions from Ekurhuleni - from Gauteng East, Ekurhuleni South and North - will play in a round robin system in Boksburg at Reiger Park Stadium. The champion and the first runner- up team will qualify for the provincial championship.” “There are two schools in Ekurhuleni that have won the provincial championships in the past years which are expected to fly the Ekurhuleni flag high. Sonqoba Primary School and Farramere Primary School were provincial champions for 2013 and 2014 respectively,” concluded Sibeko.
