Electoral Commission launches 2022 ‘Schools Democracy Programme’ KURUMAN | NTHABISENG MOHLAKOANA The 2022 School Democracy Programme – a joint project between the Electoral Commission of South Africa and the Department of Basic Education to promote electoral democracy among learners – was launched in GaSegonyana, Kuruman in the Northern Cape. The launch was held at the Rekgaratlhile High School in Kuruman. As part of the project, now in its ninth year, thousands of learners in schools across South Africa will engage in civic and democracy education and voter registration activities. The launch takes place ahead of the programme’s focus week of 25 to 29 April 2022, chosen each year to coincide with Freedom Day. “It is apt that, as part of the national celebration of Freedom Month, our efforts to get young South Africans to play a part in creating their own future reaches a zenith through this intensely focused School Democracy Week. Our goal is to create a new generation of active citizens, proud to register, participate in elections and begin to shape their own future. This programme is about entrenching the values and rights of our Constitution and promoting responsible and active citizenship among all South Africans,” the

Electoral Commission’s Provincial Electoral Officer for the Northern Cape, Bonolo Modise. Deputy Minister for Basic Education, Dr Makgabo Reginah Mhaule, who delivered the keynote address, said the School Democracy Week was a launchpad to a broader continuous Democracy Education Programme, which is offered at schools in Human Rights and Values Education as part of Life Orientation. Dr. Mhaule said that, during the School Democracy Week, the Department of Basic Education and the Electoral Commission would collaborate in different provinces to embark on a campaign that aims to reinforce the curriculum offering on human rights, democracy, and civic education. The Deputy Minister called on the basic education sector to reflect on the hard-toshift violent practice of corporal punishment in our schools. Schools Democracy Week was first held in 2013 following the signing of a Memorandum of Agreement between the Commission and the Department of Basic Education and is aimed at increasing youth participation in electoral democracy. newsroom@rekordmediafs.co.za

06 | Rekord | NEWS | HEUNINGDRUPPELS “Weet julle, ons groot God wat in staat is om mense op te tel wat in die stof lê, het my ook kom optel uit die diep put waarin ek was, Hy het my bekommernis in ’n oogwink weggevat toe Titus skielik daar opdaag.” (2 Kor. 7:6, Die Boodskap) Dit is die waarheid! God tel mense wat moeg is, wat geval het, wat hartseer is, wat oorwerk en gestres is, wat bekommerd is, wat siek en verlore is uit die stof op. Hy doen dit vir ander, Hy het dit vir Paulus gedoen en Hy doen dit ook vir my en jou persoonlik – ons kan dit maar glo en met albei hande vat en vir onsself toe-eien . Wat egter vandag vir my uitstaan in hierdie teks is hóé die Here dit doen – nie op bonatuurlike wyse met onverklaarbare ingrype of so iets nie, nee, Hy doen dit deur ’n doodgewone man. Toe Titus opdaag het sy teenwoordigheid, sy bemoedigende woorde, sy positiewe ingesteldheid, die goeie nuus wat hy kom uitlig het vir Paulus opgebeur, uit die bekommernis-put gelig en hom weer moed gegee. Ons kan mos daai vars briesie wees wat iets positief kom inblaas in iemand se slegte dag. Met die hoop en geloof wat in ons is, kán ons die optimis wees wat die positiewe kant van ’n saak kan raaksien en kan uitlig. Met die insig wat die Gees vir ons gee, kan ons opbouende insette lewer en bemoedigende, raakvat-woorde gee. Wees vandag dié persoon waarvan Jes. 35:3-4 praat: Bemoedig dié wie se hande slap hang, help dié wie se knieë knik, sê vir dié wat moed verloor het: “Wees sterk, moenie bang wees nie, julle God is hier ...” ~ Wilna Botha

| BOOK OF THE WEEK DOMINANCE AND DECLINE - THE ANC IN THE TIME OF ZUMA | SUSAN BOOYSEN | R450.00 | 073 847 2468 TO ORDER Dominance and Decline: The ANC in the Time of Zuma combines hard-hitting arguments with astute analysis. Susan Booysen shows how the ANC has become centred on the personage of Zuma, and that its defence of his extremely flawed leadership undermines the party's capacity to govern competently, and to protect its long term future. Following on from her first book, The African National Congress and the Regeneration of Power (2011), Booysen delves deeper into the four faces of power that characterise the ANC. Her principal argument is that the state is failing as the president's interests increasingly supersede those of party and state.. As Zuma's replacements start competing and succession politics takes shape, Booysen considers whether the ANC will recover from the damage wrought under Zuma's reign and attain its former glory. This is a must-have reference book on the development of the modern ANC. With rigour and incisiveness, Booysen offers scholars and researchers a coherent framework for considering future patterns in the ANC and its hold on political power.

A couple are sitting in their living room, sipping wine. Out of the blue, the wife says, “I love you.” “Is that you or the wine talking?” asks the husband. “It’s me,” says the wife. “Talking to the wine.” The attorney tells the accused, “I have some good news and some bad news.” “What’s the bad news?” asks the accused. “The bad news is, your blood is all over the crime scene, and the DNA tests prove you did it.” “What’s the good news?” “Your cholesterol is 130.” “Hier is 'n foto van Lilley' Rose.

Na ete gaan sit Zani en Dirk buite op die stoep met 'n koppie koffie in koue wintersaand. Die stilte skep 'n ongemaklike atmosfeer tussen die twee. Zani hou Dirk dop. "En as jy so stil is?' Dirk kyk weg " Dink net dis al" "Is dit liefde?" Dirk word rooi 'Dalk" Zani se nuuskierigheid wys duidelik op haar gesig. "Dalk..Dalk! dis goeie nuus ek is so bly! Begin dink jy is 'n hasie!" Dirk verstik aan sy koffie ' ...'n mof! ek! Is jy gerook?" Zani lag "Vertel my van jou dalk!' "Nee, wat jy moet wag tot die dalk iets meer permanents word. Genoeg van my wat van jou en Jacques?" Zani bloos " Dis nie nuus nie jy weet ons is 'n item" Dirk knik sy kop "Ja ek weet en 'n maand terug het Belinda nog aan sy lippe gehang" "Ja en so what?" :Dirk vererg hom "Niks so what nie jy't het agter Belinda se rug 'n move op hom gemaak. Wat dink jy dink die anders girls van jou. Weet jy wat noem hulle jou.

Dirk loop agter haar aan "Watse issues nogal" Zani draai terug "Jy weet die rumour loop dat jy die eerste Hoofseun gaan wees wat nie die Eerste span kaptein gaan wees nie.
