It is the duty of all South Africans to ght
and destroy the ‘rituals of apartheid’ as
this would be in line with the beliefs andactions of the revered gures of all reli-
gious faiths.
Speaking at a special prayer service for
those suffering under apartheid, execu-
tive member of the Natal Indian Con-
gress, Mr Mewa Ramgobin, placed the
spotlight on the fundamental duty of
Christians, Hindus and Muslims to ght
and destroy apartheid.
This would be consistent with the beliefs
and actions of revered gures such as Je-
sus, Swami Dayanand, Prophet Muham-
mad and Mahatma Gandhi.
Mr Ramgobin said the initiative taken by
religious organisations to ‘intervene cre-
atively in the affairs of our land augers
well for South Africa.’
‘To pray and protest today must lead all
South Africans to some kind of action
where are religious convictions are mani-fested.’
Mr Ramgobin said it was essential to un-
derstand the lives of ‘the great men and
woman of our times from Christianity
onwards.’
It was Christ’s willingness to suffer on the
cross, he said which gave birth to Christi-
anity. For Mahatma Gandhi, like Christ,
resistance without violence was not pas-
sive but in fact a ‘call to action’ to resist
evil, political or otherwise.
Swami Dayanand fought against the evilsof caste, the repression of woman and the
adherence to rituals. It is in this context
the historical duty of South Africans to
ght and destroy apartheid in consisten-
cy with the scriptures of Hinduism, Islam
and Christianity.

It’s a prosperous and happy new year’ for clothing industry workers afliated to the
Garment and Allied Workers Union. This year they will received their rst wage
increase in two years.
After lengthy negotiations GAWU has succeeded in winning increases for grade one
workers from R101 a week to R122, while grade two workers will earn R114.50 as
against R94.50 previously.
In July, they will receive another R3 increase. But while these workers will go homewith slightly heavier pay packets there is no comfort for workers in the decentralised
areas who are receiving low wages.
In an attempt to tackle the plight of these workers GAWU intends to set up a branch
in Northern Natal.
Accordingly to regional secretary, Mr A.J. Moodley, workers in the decentralised are-
as were earning low wages because factories there ‘were not governed by rates agreed
to by the unions and industrial council.’

Durban family members of convicted ANC member, Mr Ebrahim Is-
mail Ebrahim went to Johannesburg this week for the nal days of the
treason at Pretoria’s Palace of Justice.
Mr Ebrahim’s mother who had asked ‘The Leader’ not to disclose her
rst name in an earlier interview, has been in Johannesburg since the
trial moved to Pretoria from Bethal last year but as the trial draws to a
close other family members have also travelled to Johannesburg.
A family member in Johannesburg conrmed their presence since Mon-
day as the sentence of Mr Ebrahim, Mr Acton Mandla Maseko and MrSimon Dladla moved into gear. Mr Ebrahim has apparently accepted
the fact that a lengthy sentence – possibly between 10 and 15 years –
awaits her son and wants to pass the few precious moments she has left
with him at the courts.
In his judgement in November, Mr Justice Daniels said he believed that
not only was Mr Ebrahim involved in political work but that he had an
‘intimate involvement beyond political structures.’
It may be possible, that the judge found, that Mr Ebrahim was chair-
man of the ANC’s Regional Political Military Committee in Swaziland.
Giving argument in mitigation on Monday Prf J.J. Degenaar of the Stel-
lenbosch University said that ‘any group of people, including Afrikan-
ers, would resort to similar decisions (opt for the armed struggle), if
their non-violent strategy, pursued for decades, was ignored.
The ANC resorted to violence only in the 1960’s while it was formed in
1911.
Prof Degenaar pointed out that world-wide South Africa was regarded
as a structurally violent country as it was possibly the only country in
the world to legally implement racial discrimination.
The professor said he understood the reasons why people resorted to
violence but on, moral grounds he remained ‘extremely critical’ of it.
Prof Degenaar said that the ANC and the government must strive to-
wards achieving a negotiated settlement in South Africa.
International relations expert, Prof Gerhard Erasmus also of Stellen-
bosch University said in mitigation, that oversees the armed struggle
waged by the ANC was viewed as a ‘just war for liberation.’
He gave various reasons to justify this view including the fact that at the
United Nations the ANC and PAC were accepted as representatives of
the people of South Africa while the UN continuously attacked the gov-
ernment’s racial policies.

Ingredients:1 kg pumpkin or butternut (peeled and chopped into cubes)
½ cup oil
1 cinnamon stick
1 large onion (nely chopped)
4 cloves garlic (slivered)
1 teaspoon mustard seeds1 teaspoon jeera seeds
¼ teaspoon methi seeds
4 whole green chillies (slit)
5 dried red chillies (split)
Salt to taste
+- 4 tablespoons sugar (you may not need to add all the sugar)
1 sprig curry leaves
¼ cup chopped dhunia
METHOD:Heat oil in a pot, add onion, cinnamon stick, mustard, jeera and methi
seeds. Fry until onion turns a lovely golden brown. Now add your garlic
and fry for ½ minute. Add cubed pumpkin/butternut together with your
green and red chillies and salt. Leave to cook on low heat until pumpkinsoft and cooked through.
Although the pumpkin may release its own water, it may not be enough.
You may need to add water to help the cooking process.
Some pumpkins/butternuts are naturally sweet and may not require a lot
of sugar, so it is prudent to taste the dish before adding the sugar. This will
help you determine how much sugar to use or if it is even necessary.
Once the pumpkin is cooked through and dry, add ½ the sugar. Toss, leave
to simmer 5 minutes. Toss again and taste. If you want it sweeter, then add
more sugar.
You could mash the pumpkin in the pot or leave it as is, depending on your
preference. Garnish with your greens and serve with roti or puri…
I love pumpkin with sugar beans curry and puri… (Eshana Suleman)
The extra oil is necessary to allow the pumpkin to 'fry'...tilt the pot and
remove any excess oil after it has cooked....

The 1989 draw for the Moosa’s Salvage
Knockout Cup was held at UDW on Tues-
day evening and there was tremendous
excitement as the two top North Coast
teams, Coronation and New Orleans were
drawn against each other.
The D’Alberton Callies indoor soccer
tournament reaches new heights on Sun-
day evening when the Moosa’s Salvage
tournament is held.
The rst xture in this exciting knock-out
competition begins at 6pm when two Dur-
ban teams, Reservoir Hills and Varsity
Heights clash.
Darby United, which nished second in
the Sonakwazsbo League meet Quarrians
of Phoenix, whilst New Orleans meet the
1988 Sonakwaszbo Div II League win-
ners, Coronation.
Incidentally, Coronation head the indoor
league at this stage by one point from Dar-
by United. The entertaining D’Alberton
Lads meet Eastlands, whilst the 1988 Clo-
ver Cup winners, Motherwell, meet the
high riding Sparks Uts of the DFA.
Villa Park of the North Coast meet the
UDW team, whilst Creedance meet the
host club D’Alberton Callies.
Chelsea, who hails from Pietermaritz-
burg meet Carlisle of Durban in a drawthat could provide the most reworks for
the evening.
Mr Lites Sayed, the hardworking Callies
ofcial and spokesman, told The Leader
that the Callies tournament had been the
best yet and that the popularity of this
type of soccer tournament had increased
tremendously.
‘Whilst we are happy and thrilled at the
response we have had thus far, next sea-
son we denatly have to look more closely
at organising such a tournament in the
under 18 colts, juvenile and under 10 di-
visions as well. Our Cup presentation
function will be held on 20 January and
will include a beauty queen contest,’ said
an enthusiastic Lites Sayed.

ALL is fair not only in love and ware, but in many spheres of life, even sport. While
the ref is there to see right being done on the sports eld, it certainly is another story
in the boardrooms where power play is pure politics.
In the United States it is not uncommon to look for skeletons or bring out the dirty
linen of candidates in order to stie their chances of election.
On the local front it is not as intense but when the gloves are off the situation can get
nasty.
Presently, the spotlight is on the FPL election, to be held on Sunday February 19.
Ashwin Trikamjee, who has done sterling work as President of the FPL for the past 10
years, is set to clash with Pops Chetty, Director and Manger of Real Taj.
ACRIMONY
In previous FPL elections, Trikamjee’s position was threatened from certain quarters,
but the threat zzled out on the day of reckoning.
It is quite apparent that Trikamjee is not popular in certain quarters of the soccer
circle because of his independent line on many issues.
Given the several unsuccessful attempts that were made to oust him, the latest opposi-
tion is viewed with circumspection by some.
While Chetty is exercising his democratic right to stand for the presidency he has em-
phatically denied rumours that he is a decoy for Trikamjee’s opponents.
Chetty made this clear to delegates of clubs he addressed in Durban last month.
After the denial, Chetty was asked to explain the roll of George Bailey, the representa-
tive of Birds who requested that Mr S. K. Chetty (the chief Executive Ofcer of the
FPL) align himself with Pops Chetty’s cabinet.
Pops Chetty told that meeting he was surprised at Bailey’s role as he had not instruct-
ed Bailey to canvas on his behalf.
S. K Chetty conrmed, when approached by ‘The Leader’ that Bailey did discuss the
matter with him.
CONCERN
Amidst these allegations and denials, Bosmont Chelsea’s delegate to the FPL, Mo-
hamed Mubarak, expressed concern.
He told ‘The Leader’ that with all these allegations going around, he is not sure wheth-
er Pops Chetty is standing as an independent or a front for someone else.
Furtheremore, Mubarak said that he is concerned that the FPL will lose the Osman
Spice R30,000 sponsorship if Trikamjee does not head the affairs of the FPL.
Will Chetty have ready sponsors at the ready to replace the Osman Spice ~Sponsor-
ship or has he concluded any negotiations for major sponsorship fr the new season?
These and other questions will need to be answered by Chetty before Chelsea make a
decision on who to vote for on February 19.
Mr Chetty could not be contacted to answer questions raised by Mubarak.
In the meantime the usual anti-Trikamjee letters to the editors are making their bien-nial rounds.

Cricketers and cricket fans in Natal will be looking forwards
with interest to the home’s team new fortunes during January21-23 and February 18-20 when Natal play two home games in
the Howa Bowl interprovincial series.
The present Natal team will have to do everything in their pow-
er to redeem themselves before their home crowds and their fel-
low club cricketers, after fairing dismally in recent seasons.
The Natal team has thus far failed to impress. In their recent
games against Eastern Province and Western Province, Natal
suffered humiliating defeats.
Firstly, at the Zwide Stadium in Port Elizabeth, Natal were
beaten by 90 runs and then over Christmas weekend, Western
Province won by an innings and 182 runs.
The question that is being posed is what has gone run with Na-
tal cricket?
Not only has Natal seniors fared badly but it’s Under 21 team
failed to win a single match in the recent SA tournament held in
Port Elizabeth.
And to add more salt into the wound, The Natal U16 team which
had won the national tournament last year lost its title to West-
ern Province in Cape Town.
Natal cricket is denitely in a poor state and something must be
done to improve things. For a start it is hoped that the Natal
seniors players apply themselves with greater dedication, more
discipline and more commitment in their next two games.
This deantly will be the last chance for some our ‘big names’
who have failed to impress.
