Some relief for small businesses NTANDOYENKOSI DLAMINI >>ntandoyenkosi.dlamini@media24.com

M

uch-needed relief is on the way for spaza shops, the informal sector as well as Small, Medium and Micro Enterprises (SMMEs).

This is according to the MEC for Economic Development, Tourism and Environmental Affairs, Ravi Pillay.

Pillay said this in Port Shepstone last week when he visited the Ugu South Coast to assess the damage caused in the recent unrest.

“I am in Port Shepstone to receive the reports from Ray Nkonyeni and uMzumbe municipalities. In all three municipalities (including Umuziwabantu Municipality), they have had significant damage. In Harding in particular, some major stores, a lot of SMMEs and a number of informal traders were affected. Ezinqoleni and Port Edward as well were hard hit,” said Pillay.

The MEC added that in Umzumbe, about three central areas were affected including the Turton Shopping Centre.

Pillay said he was inspired by the unity shown by the municipalities and all stakeholders who are determined to recover.

“In Harding, they are expecting Shoprite to open within the next few days and the other major stores are already in the process of reconstruction. Emphasis will be on SMMEs, spaza shops and the informal sector, we want to give them relief as soon as possible and that is why collecting this data is important for the national government to do the necessary calculations,” said Pillay, adding that they want to see how they can help.

“If we can’t help everyone, at least assist those who were uninsured. We are also meeting with municipalities to encourage them to also assist no matter how little the help is,” said Pillay.

Furthermore, Pillay met with Umdoni Municipality Mayor Sibongile Khathi and business owners within Umzinto to assess

If we can’t help everyone, at least assist those who were uninsured. the damage done in the area as well.

Meanwhile, in terms of nationally, National African Federated Chamber of Commerce and Industry (NAFCOC) spokesperson Refilwe Monageng said black-owned businesses and SMMEs need more help in addition to government’s economic recovery measures announced by President Cyril Ramaphosa recently.

In a statement, Monageng said they are appealing to government to increase their efforts in providing extensive relief to workers, employers and communities as soon as possible.

“We are deeply saddened by the destruction of businesses, in particular the small business and black entrepreneurial commu-

nity, that have already been struggling for months to survive the Covid-19 crisis. There are many more options available to the government to further support through comprehensive tax relief, debt amnesty provisions and even grants,” Monageng said in the statement.

The statement also highlighted that many black businesses have been excluded from applying for government or private sector support through the pandemic, because they do not have the resources to supply the basic paperwork required for the applications.

“The reality is that many black entrepreneurs were already living from hand-tomouth, and in no position even to produce the basic tax clearance, or the other compliance paperwork frequently required to access the limited relief available. The livelihoods of potentially millions of South Africans are at stake - we cannot fail our people,” said Monageng. NAFCOC is also calling on business and industry associations to actively engage and collaborate with small and black-owned businesses to help support them during this trying period.

Grieving family struggles to receive funeral payout NTANDOYENKOSI DLAMINI >>ntandoyenkosi.dlamini@media24.com

A

Bizana family said they struggled to bury their father, despite taking out a funeral policy which was paid for monthly.

The daughter of the deceased, Ntombifuthi Madikizela said her father was the policy holder at Umusa Funerals.

She explained that the family had to borrow money so that they could give their father a dignified funeral.

“The policy was supposed to give us pots, a tent, a cow and more as agreed between the insurer and the policy holder but we ended up borrowing the money for the tent which is really unfair,” said Madikizela, adding that they only received R5 000 which is not even half of the money that was supposed to pay out.

Madikizela explained that when they inquired with the insurer, they were asked what they would do with a whole cow when less than 50 people are suppose to attend funerals.

“He even said the cow was in Izingolweni so

he would be stopped by the police when delivering it to Bizana. The reason we came to Port Shepstone now is because we want to speak to the manager or owner. When we got here, they called him and when he asked for surname, he dropped the call.

“This is the same man who told us he can’t deliver the tent because it will be blown away by strong winds,” she said.

She added that they managed to bury their father despite the challenges.

On Thursday last week, Madikizela and her

sister Thuleka Madikizela reached out to the deputy mayor of Ugu District Municipality Phumlile Mthiyane for assistance.

Mthiyane who was part of the discussions between the owner of Umusa Funerals and the Madikizela family said she was relieved to see that an agreement was eventually reached.

The owner of Umusa Funerals refused to speak to the Fever about the matter.

Meanwhile, Madikizela told Fever that in the meeting, the owner promised them to give R8 000 by August 9.

After spending seven months in jail, Ugu Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) secretary Mpume Mbono, is out on bail.

According to members of the EFF in the Ugu region, Mbono received bail at the Pietermaritzburg High Court on Monday.

The secretary was arrested in December 2020 at one of the local beaches when the EFF visited South Coast beaches.

The visit followed an incident widely shared on social media showing lifeguards allegedly being assaulted during an altercation at a local beach. Speaking outside Port Shepstone Correctional Services, Mbono said he appreciates people throughout the province who supported him for the last seven months “It was very tough but when we joined this, we knew that we joined this to fight for black people so I don’t regret all that has happened and we will continue fighting for black people,” said Mbono.

Ugu Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) secretary Mpume Mbono reuniting is out on bail.

Taxi feud hits Port Shepstone NTANDOYENKOSI DLAMINI >>ntandoyenkosi.dlamini@media24.com

A

group of unknown men are allegedly trying to forcefully assume control of the Port Shepstone-based Zamokuhle Long Distance Taxi Association.

Recently, operations at the rank on the South Coast came to an abrupt halt when the men held it to ransom.

According to South African National Taxi Council (Santaco) KZN spokesperson Sifiso Shangase, the association in the Ugu region recently reached out to the association in the province because of the seriousness of the matter.

“As the association, we are intervening in partnership with the government to fight the chaos that is happening in Port Shepstone.

“We have agreed that the police will not stop doing random searches and monitoring the situation in Port Shepstone until all those taxis who are trying to forcefully take over that route are gone for good.

There are also soldiers and officers from KZN Traffic who are assisting in ensuring smooth operations at the rank,” he said.

Shangase added that because the police cannot be at the taxi rank throughout the day, taxi associations hire armed security officers to ensure safety and that smooth operations continue.

A taxi driver, who did not want to be named, told the Fever that this is linked to a feud over lucrative routes, which started around 2015.

He said that during the tensions between rival associations, a fully laden taxi from Port Shepstone was sprayed with bullets on the M4 freeway, south of Durban, a few years ago.

“The driver was injured and a passenger was killed. Since this started I have heard of five people who died through this violence.

That’s why when we are asked to not operate, we don’t because we all value our lives,” he said.

From last week, the Road Traffic

Inspectorate (RTI), police and other law enforcement have been using stun grenades to disperse people at the Port Shepstone taxi rank.

However, commuter Simphiwe Kunene alleged that the police had searched him in a hard-handed manner.

“Today me together with everyone else who was at Port Shepstone taxi rank had to undergo inhumane police injustice.

“They came out of nowhere and started shooting and using stun grenades.

“My girlfriend and I were forced to lay on our bellies, flat on the taxi rank floor.

“We got scolded at like animals, then one by one we were searched with no explanation as to what was going on; there was no warning — nothing.

“Thirty minutes later we were still on the floor. They told us they were looking for guns,” he said.

Comment from the police had not been received at the time of publication.

Port Shepstone Lions and other volunteers who assisted with the relief efforts.

Providing relief L

ions Clubs all over the province sprung into action in organising relief for those affected by the recent unrest.

Port Shepstone Lions Club’s Denis Meyer was appointed as Lions relief coordinator for the South Coast region.

Donations started to come in as soon as a request for assistance was shared on social media. Donations started to come in from several Lions Clubs throughout South Africa as well as other individuals and organisations.

In an extraordinary act of generosity, Johannesburg-based charity Ubuntu Flight Acorn Foundation, and the Lions Club of Centurion organised and purchased critical supplies for communities affected by the violence in KwaZulu-Natal.

Also, large consignments of nonperishable food items, nappies and other essential items were flown to various airports by Cemair, including at the Margate Airport. These donations were specifically designated for local Lions Clubs to assist with their community relief efforts. Members of the Port Shepstone Lions Club then transported the consignments from Margate Airport to

From there, all donations were then sorted and distributed accordingly by Lion Gary Vogt and his committee. Donations were shared with other Lions Clubs in the area and hundreds of food parcels were packed for distribution to needy families and various other community help organisations.

Non-perishable food items were also donated to Raj Mahabeer who runs

the Hibiscus Food For Life project which is regularly supported by Port Shepstone Lions. Funding raised by the club was also shared with the other Lions Clubs on the South Coast to assist with their relief efforts.

Port Shepstone Lions ladies cooked and packed hundreds of frozen meals which were delivered to various local families, the elderly and to South Coast Hospice. An additional consignment of two pallets of peanut butter sachets was also donated by the Garden Route Food Pantry and delivered free of charge by Tritan Transport.

These sachets help to combat malnutrition and are incorporated into the food parcels. This massive community relief project was run entirely by Lions volunteers and all requests for support were first thoroughly investigated to ensure that relief was being provided to those who were desperately in need.

Port Shepstone Lions would like to express their appreciation to all donors and volunteers who contributed towards the success of this project.

SPECIAL:

Ten local high schools recently received Physical Science and Life Science kits from the Wild Coast Sun in partnership with the Wild Coast Sun Mbizana Development Trust.

The schools which received kits for grades 10 to 12 all support pupils from poorer and more marginalised communities.

The kits include items such as models of the heart and ear, dust coats, microscopes, as well as first aid training kits and anatomical skeletons.

In 2018, 10 kits were donated.

Chairperson of the Wild Coast Sun Mbizana Development Trust, Griffiths Memela, said they are pleases to be making the donation as part of their socioeconomic development spend to address a shortage of learning equipment, especially in the sci-

ence field.

“The kits will assist educators in performing live experiments to scholars instead of having to just explain from the textbook. The kits will also assist familiarise pupils with science apparatus, so that they are not overwhelmed when they reach tertiary level,” he said.

Meanwhile, Alfred Nzo East District director, Albert Mpupu said they welcome the noble donation from Wild Coast Sun and its partners.

“The first phase of donations in 2018 has produced outstanding Grade 12 science results with one of the beneficiary schools escalating to the top five schools in the province.

We have no doubt that this corporate investment made by Wild Coast Sun will again reap similar if not better results for the 2021 academic year,” said Mpupu.

The Green Net garden.

Conserving the environment through gardens NTANDOYENKOSI DLAMINI >>ntandoyenkosi.dlamini@media24.com

N

on-profit organisation, The Green Net (TGN) needs funds to continue to conserve the environment.

Joan Gallagher of the organisation has been blessed with the use of the gardens near the hall of the Our Lady of Fatima Catholic Church in Sea Park.

Gallagher said they have been hard at work clearing and planting.

She explained that their main lockdown project was the establishment of organic vegetable gardens in the community of Louisiana.

“Whilst this ensured that people were able to eat and learn basic gardening skills, it became apparent that the community has a need of much more. TGN has been carrying all the costs of seeds, compost, fuel, refreshments, communication, admin and in order to continue and expand, we need to raise awareness and funding because we believe we can develop our area to be a sustainable eco-paradise – providing food, shelter, employment and opportunity for all,” she said.

According to Gallagher, TGN currently pays R2 000 per month to local helpers.

“We also pay R10 for an EcoBrick and we need roughly 300 or 400 per bench - this enables us to ‘capture’ the single-use plastics in the area, clean up the environment and build useful benches from this waste. To sponsor an EcoBrick Bench, the cost is R6 000,” she said.

She added that the organisation also requires additional funds for fuel, accounting fees and website development.

Gallagher said through the donations, they will be able to offer more employment, upskill farmers, develop a sustainable centre with environmental training, a restaurant, a nursery, and a tourism facility.

“It all starts with education. There are many simple

things we can all do to make an instant and real difference that we share freely, and encourage everyone to do the same.

“We are asking people to make a donation to our worthy cause to enable us to keep on making a positive difference in the lives of many,” she said.

Fake news is harmful NTANDOYENKOSI DLAMINI

M

any people are naively unaware that they are sharing fake news, especially when it comes to Covid-19.

This is according to Durban based psychologist, Kiara Sunder.

Sunder explained that misinformation is also shared by people who do it knowingly as a means of satisfying underlying social needs or political agendas.

She added that there is a broad spectrum of what drives people to create and share misinformation. “Some of these factors are less obvious and while it is multi-layered, there are some clear psychological motivations that can be observed. The internet has given a voice to anyone and everyone. While this has its benefits, it also means that a great deal of information is shared unchecked. Digital illiteracy is of growing concern, and is particularly prevalent among older generations,”she said, adding that older individuals who have had to learn technology later in life tend to be more trusting.

Conversely, there are many internet users who mistakenly believe that anything published online must be true, said Sunder.

“Younger people who have grown up with technology have high levels of digital literacy built into their schema, or cognitive framework for organising information. This gives them a certain level of built-in understanding about what is and is not ‘real’ online,” she said.

Also, Sunder said while some users may not be aware of the motives behind their behaviour,

Clinical psychologist Kiara Sunder. they are in fact seeking status and self-promotion, indicating that some emotional needs are not being met in real life.

“Some seek to be relevant, some individuals feel ongoing pressure to become the first to post or share any new piece of information, true or

false. Many individuals experience anxiety from daily news about events taking place in the world and they switch off from that by using social media as an escape. Others find a sense of validation in being able to share a post or message that reflects their own feelings or fears, even if the information shared may not necessarily be true. Some information shared maybe politically motivated –some individuals will create or spread fake news to achieve certain ends,”she said, adding that narcissistic people may also share misinformation for the sake of appearing to be important and knowledgeable.

Sunder emphasised that without healthy coping mechanisms in real life, people are more likely to lash out at others or latch onto harmful online trends. She explained that whether intentional or not, such behaviour can result in online bullying, reputational damage, confusion, disruption and financial loss as well as physical violence.

The psychologist also said children need to be made aware of the dangers of fake news.

“Understanding the impact of consuming and sharing unverified information is an important part of conversations between parents or guardians and children when it comes to screen time. As a parent there is great value in keeping communication lines open and emphasising that you trust your child, but not the online world. Helping children to understand the layers of societal dangers involved and letting them feel they can talk openly to you, before expressing themselves online, will go a long way to protecting them now and in the future,” she said.

South Coast flaunted on television FEVER REPORTER The recent season of the SA reality television series, The Longest Date, which was shot on the beautiful South Coast was aired on SABC 3 on Monday (July 26).

In this popular extreme adventure competition, 16 single people search for love and adventure.

Viewers finally got to meet the latest contestants whose weekly escapades are set against a backdrop of cascading waterfalls, beautiful dive sites, golden beaches, tranquil lagoons and coastal forests.

Meanwhile, Ugu South Coast Tourism (USCT) has put together an exclusive hospitality package that gives visitors a real-world experience of this incredible series.

CEO of USCT, Phelisa Mangcu said they are delighted that the South Coast was the chosen location for the production of the latest season of this series.

“The region is fast becoming a prime filming destination for both local and international production companies. We have such diversity in terms of natural terrain from the coast to the hinterland region, alongside affordable venues and a welcoming industry that is ready to assist production crews at a moment’s no-

She added that in addition to the benefits to production companies, local tourism establishments and communities benefitted from job creation and steady economic growth. “This has been a wonderful experience for us on the KZN South Coast, and a really great opportunity to showcase the wealth of natural beauty this region offers tourists. The Longest Date Tourism Package will give visitors a comprehensive, adventurefilled experience of those sites viewed in the show,” she said.

Working alongside Brandgen production company, Paul Jefferys described the KZN South Coast as one of the best filming locations he has worked on.

“The natural, expansive beauty, together with the intensely challenging adventure locations of The Longest Date season 2 has ensured an exciting and surprising outcome of the series. The appeal of the KZN South Coast and vast array of scenic beauty makes this a must-watch season,” he said.

The series with 13 episodes is aired every Monday on SABC 3 at 9pm.

August 5, 2021

KZN is open for business, says Zikalala Work to rebuild has begun in KwaZulu-Natal, which is reassuring the country and world that it is open again for the international business fraternity and local trade.

These were the words of KZN premier Sihle Zikalala on Tuesday when he addressed media at the Inanda Police Station in Durban. He, along with Police Minister Bheki Cele, briefed media on matters related to the Phoenix violence.

Zikalala also spoke about the province’s economy.

He said big businesses such as Massmart and Unilever have pledged their support to the province.

“The positive turnaround seen at Toyota after threatening to leave is also a step in the right direction.

Major retailers such as Massmart [which includes stores such as Game, Boxer, Makro], Shoprite, Woolworths, Pick n Pay have begun their operations, with key malls in and around KwaZulu-Natal reopened. This is sending a positive message to South Africa and the world that KwaZulu-Natal is open for business,” added Zikalala.

He said this augers well on the gains that the KZN economy has achieved in the first quarter of 2021.

“The KZN economy recorded its third consecutive positive growth rate in the first quarter of 2021, emulating the performance of the national economy.

“The provincial economy grew by an annualised growth rate of 3,71% on a quarter-on-quarter basis.

The positive growth momentum in the provincial economy can be largely attributed to some increased activity in the manufacturing sector, alongside a stronger rebound of the finance and retail trade industries,” he said.

Zikalala said the majority of the people in KZN are not looters or criminals.

“Crimes are committed by a small group of people in our communities, across all races, classes and religion.

It is therefore the duty of the law-abiding citizen to isolate the criminals and to ensure that they are brought to book.”

He said provincial government is supporting the implementation of law enforcement by the SAPS to deal with crimes committed during the unrest.

“Those who have broken the law, whether they were vigilantes or looters, should all face the full might of the law.”

In Phoenix, Inanda, Bhambayi, Zwelitsha, KwaMashu, Amaoti and surrounding areas, government has seen the worst of these crimes, he said, including murder being committed in the name of protecting the community.

Similar incidents were seen in Chatsworth and Northdale, he said.

“We are encouraged that in Phoenix, Chatsworth, Verulam, Northdale and many areas good citizenship thrives. We have seen groups of social activists in the Indian community joining with Africans in the All Lives Matter movement to call for an end to racism in all its forms.”

Zikalala said the social solidarity demonstrated by the community of Phoenix in pursuit of peace and unity, among all people across different races, must be applauded.

He said psychological support, social relief and food parcels are being provided to families in distress.

The increased visibility of security personnel from the SAPS and SANDF on the ground has added to the stability and allowed the economy to move, he said.

The current estimated cost of damages and relief required for the sector departments is R2 billion, whereas the municipal damages requires R74 million. The interim financial implications for the organs of state is R2,1 billion.

The figures are expected to grow.

Zikalala also spoke about the Social Cohesion and Moral Regeneration Council, which includes prominent members of society such as deputy chairperson the council Bishop Ruben Phillip and social cohesion advocates.

The key objective of it is to develop a comprehensive provincial strategy to address: •Feelings of marginalisation and exclusion, based on race, from participating and benefiting from social and economic opportunities in the province; •Perceptions that foreign and other African nationals are benefiting more than local citizens, and dealing with violence directed towards foreign nationals based on such perceptions; •Declining morals that aggravate social ills in the province, which are generally created by socio-economic challenges; •Sustainable solutions to bring about radical socio-economic transformation to address socio-economic inequalities; and •Dealing with social instability, political intolerance and politically-related violence.

“In the end, through arts, culture, sports and socioeconomic development, we will bring all the communities of KZN as we seek to build a united non-racist, nonsexist and prosperous KwaZulu-Natal,” he said.

WW Trevor Nyakane, ons

Wouter se Watergat WOUTER WILLEMSE Dit was nou ‘n wedstryd om te onthou! Veral na die vorige week se teleurstelling. Die Watergat was nou nie propvol nie weens die Covid-regulasies, maar diegene wat hier was het hulself gate uit geniet. Toe die eerste helfte van die toetswedstryd tussen die Bokke en die Britse/Ierse Leeus amper verby was, was ons maar redelik stil, want ons het ‘n herhaling van die vorige week se tweede helfte gevrees. Tot ons verligting en later pure blydskap, was dit presies die teenoorgestelde.

Toe die hele voorry met Trevor Nyakane, Malcolm Marx ( Oom Pottie noem hom die ‘Meneer’ ) en Vincent Koch vervang word, met Lood de Jager as ‘n plaasvervangerslot, is die Britte behoorlik opgefoeter. Die Bokke was absoluut dominant en briljant. Dit gaan vir die Lions baie moeilik wees om hierdie momentum te keer.

Die ander bron van ons plesier was die berekende risiko wat Rassie Erasmus geloop het met daardie video van hom waarin hy uitgewys het wat hy beskou as kritieke foute van die skeidsregter, die lynregter en die televisie-skeidregter tydens die eerste toets ‘n week tevore.

Hy het weereens gewys hy is ‘n uitgeslape taktikus wat ‘úit die boks’ dink. Benewens dat hy as SA se rugbybaas water op die veld aandra (wie anders sou aan so-iets gedink

f

het?), was die skeidregter en sy TV-kollega hierdie keer baie versigtig met hul beslissings, en is Sya Kolisi, wat ‘n reusewedstryd gespeel het, met groot respek behandel.

Daarbenewens het Springbok-oortreders op die veld rooikaarte vrygespring, waarskynlik weens Rassie se videoklagtes. Hoe dit ookal sy, indien die Bokke die reeks wen, en ek is seker hulle gaan, sou Rassie se taktiek ‘n groot rol gespeel het. Dis nou benewens die invloed wat hy agter die skerms op die span het soos in 2019 met die Wêreldbekertoernooi in Japan. Hoop net nie hy word voor stok gekry nie. Oom Pottie en ek stem saam dit lyk asof hy wil hê dit moet gebeur. Iewers het ‘n gesaghebbende in die buiteland vertel hy hoor Rassie se kop staan weer Europa toe.

Sal moet sien.

Ons loopbydrae kom van Piet Botes van Johannesburg. Hy het die volgende gesegdes van die Amerikaanse komediant Rodney Dangerfield aan ons oorgedra: My ma het na my geboorte eers in die oggende naar geword. Ek het vir my tandarts gesê my tande word geel. Al wat hy toe antwoord is dat ek ‘n bruin das daarby dra. My foto is een jaar op ‘n reklamebord gebruik om geboortebeperking te promoveer. My vrou was bang vir die donker, toe sien sy my sonder klere en nou is sy bang vir die lig. Ons noem ons nuwe hond Egipte want hy los ‘n piramide in elke kamer.

eie Maori-tongman JOHAN PRETORIUS

T

wee of drie keer nadat die Springbokstut Trevor Nyakane en sy mede-voorrymanne die Britse en Ierse Leeus se skrum opgefrommel het, het hy soos ‘n wafferse Maori tydens ‘n Haka-vertoning sy herlderkleurige rooi tong ondertoe uitgesteek om te wys hoe tevrede hy met homself en sy span is. Die uwe het dit nogal geniet, veral omdat dit duidelik was dat die kragtige Trevor en sy spanmaats Vincent Koch, Malcolm Marx en Lood de Jager as lede van die dag se ‘bomb squad’, oftewel tweede helfte-plaaservangers, die Britte se skrum geknak het. Daarbenewens was dit weereens opmerklik hoe goed die verhoudings tussen swart en wit in die Springbokspan op die veld is. ‘n Riem onder die hart in hierdie donker dae van onrus, politieke bakleiery en rassisme.

Ek het besluit om iets hieroor te skryf, maar iewers in my agterkop onthou dat Dana Snyman, die bekende joernalis en skrywer, iewers iets oor Trevor Nyakane geskryf het wat my bygebly het. Ek het dit op sy Facebookblad opgespoor. Hy bel Trevor se pa, Norman, ‘n paar uut voordat die Bokke in Londen teen Samoa speel, vra of hy kon saam kom rugby kyk, en wat hy moet saambring: “Ek koop steak en wors, twaalf Amstels en twee groot bottels Stoney en ry soos Uncle Norman verduidelik het: links hier, regs daar. Later is ek in ’n klein township naby ’n myn, so 20 km buite Gravelotte. Uncle Norman staan in ’n Springboktrui voor ’n huisie met ’n kaal voortuin. Agterop die trui is ’n nommer 17. Trevor het sy eerste toetswedstyd in daardie trui gespeel.

Langs die voordeur is ’n hen-en-kuikens in ’n asbesbak.

“No!” roep Uncle Norman toe ek voor die deur wil parkeer. “Go to the back.” Hy beduie na die agterkant van die huisie. Hy het spesiaal sy ou Hilux-bakkie onder die ietwat verslete afdak agter die huis uitgetrek sodat ek daar kan stilhou.

Die huis het vier vertrekke. Teen die muur hang ’n foto van Trevor in sy Springboktrui wat Uncle Norman geraam het in een van daardie goedkoop rame wat jy by ’n Chinashop koop. Teen ’n ander muur is ’n foto van biskop Barnabas Lekganyane, leier van die Zion Christian Church. Agnes, Trevor se stiefma, kom uit die kombuisie, ’n groot vrou met ’n ZCC-wapentjie op die bors.

Sy kan nie Engels of Afrikaans praat nie. Trevor se ma is oorlede toe hy nog op skool was. Agnes is ’n ZCC-tannie. ’n Week gelede, voor die begin van die Wêreldbekertoernooi, het Uncle Norman-hulle spesiaal Moria toe gery, die ZCC se Vatikaan naby Polokwane, om vir Trevor daar ver oorsee te gaan bid. Uncle Norman gaan sit op die bank en vertel hoe Trevor eers net sokker wou speel, en vanmiddag speel Trevor doer ver anderkant die water vir die Bokke.

Uncle Norman was ’n hekwag en ’n kantoorassistent by die myn, maar is nou afgetree. Trevor het sy eerste toetswedstryd vir die Bokke in 2013 op Nelspruit gespeel. Ons gaan nie hier rugby kyk nie; ons gaan by Trevor se susters, Abigail en Rhulani, na die wedstryd kyk. Abigail en Rhulani het ook Springboktruie aan, elkeen met ’n nommer 17 op die rug, en hul hondjie, Chico, begin dadelik vreeslik vir my blaf.

Ek wil nie sulke dinge dink nie, maar ek kan myself nie help om te wonder nie: Blaf Chico so vir my omdat hy nie dikwels wit mense op hierdie werf sien nie? In die kombuis is ’n nuwe yskas. In die sitkamer is ’n nuwe

STILTETYD: Onbedagsaamheid Die persoon praat dat die spoeg so spat. Dit was in ’n ry waar mense wag vir ’n Covid 19 prosedure. Sy masker sit op sy ken en hy staan amper teenaan die persoon voor hom.

Dalk was jy ook al in so ’n situasie. Dit speel hom nogal meer kere af in ons land en seker in die wêreld, veral in ons dag.

Onbedagsame mense en onbedagsame gedrag is deel van die stukkende wêreld waarin ons leef, maar is nooit regverdigbaar nie.

As ons bedagsaam was, sou ons sekerlik die basiese beginsel wat Christus in Sy Woord stel gevolg het, naamlik: “Alles wat julle dan wil hê mense aan julle moet doen, doen ook net so aan hulle, want dit is die kern van die Wet en die profete.” Matteus 7:12.

Sou ons die woorde van Christus ernstig opneem, sou ons sekerlik die vraag gestel het hoe ander geraak word deur ons dade en woorde.

Dit sal ons dalk daartoe bring om ons in die posisie van ander in te dink en in ag te neem wat ons sê en doen. Dink maar net aan die frustrasie, woede, slegte gevoelens en so meer wat onbedagsaamheid nie na

Trevor Nyakane het verlede Saterdag 'n indrukwekkende vertoning as loskopstut vir die Springbokspan gelewer. Hy en sy mede-voorrrymanne het die Britse en Ierse Leeus in die tweede helfte by tye soos kitsgras opgerol. grootskerm-TV. In die een slaapkamer staan ’n nuwe oefenfiets – als goed wat Trevor vir hulle gekoop het.

Teen die sitkamermuur, byna soos ’n klein huisaltaar, hang die Springbokvlaggie wat Trevor in 2013 ná sy eerste toetswedstryd teen Skotland in Nelspruit gekry het – onder ’n foto van sy oorlede ma.

Ons staan op aandag toe die volkslied speel en sing hard saam. Ek en Uncle Norman elkeen met ’n Amstel teen die bors. Dan is dit die afskop, en dan . . . In die volgende twee uur gebeur ’n klomp dinge terwyl die Springbokke teen Samoa hoeveel duisend kilometer van hier speel. Uncle Norman en Agnes en sy dogters praat Sjangaan met mekaar, maar kort-kort hoor ek ’n speler se naam: Habana, Matfield, Pollard, Le Roux – name wat soos katoë skitter op die donker, onbekende pad waarop ek is. Later gaan haal Uncle Norman vir ons elkeen nog ’n Amstel, en toe hy die botteltjie vir my gee, praat hy die eerste keer met my Afrikaans. “Pla die muskiete jou nie?” vra hy.

Halftyd, met die Springbokke wat voorloop, gaan steek ek en Abigail die vuur aan in die klein braaier agterin die jaart. Toe is dit die tweede helfte, en toe die 22ste minuut van die tweede helfte; en toe, skielik, is hy op die skerm, Trevor Nyakane, hulle Trevor, Nommer 17. Ons Trevor. Uncle Norman leun oor en sit sy hand vlugtig op my skouer, asof hy wil seker maak ek sien dit. Abigail en Rhulani kom regop en roep: “Bhuti! Bhuti!” terwyl tannie Agnes met albei hande vir die skerm waai, en ek . . . begin huil. Dis net ’n gewone gesin wat bly is om dat een van hulle vir die Springbokke speel, maar party gewone dinge is nie gewoon in hierdie land nie. “I just want to go to the toilet.” Ek gaan staan ’n ruk buite op die stoep. Dis al donker. In ’n droë bedding merk ek iets: ’n tuisgemaakte oefenapparaat. Twee koffieblikke gevul met sement, verbind met ’n besemstok. Uncle Norman het dit vir Trevor help maak om sy spiere as laaitie mee te oefen.

Net voor ek later die aand weer ry, herinner Uncle Norman my: Trevor se regte naam is eintlik Ntando.

Ntando, wat “seëning” beteken.”

O K om

vore roep nie.

Die man wat sy vrou nie in ag neem as hy nuwe aankope doen nie.

Die vrou wat haar man wegstoot as hy toenadering soek.

Die vrou by die apteek wat ander uit die pad loop om voor in die tou te kom. Die man wat praat dat die spoeg spat, sonder sy masker.

Die persoon wat sy sigaretstompie by die kar se venster uitgooi. Die vraag is wat aan die wortel lê van onbedagsaamheid?

Is dit nie, maar weer die ou probleem dat ons egosentries is en ander nie in ag neem nie? Lê dit dalk by ’n swak opvoeding en dat ek geleer het by my ouers om onbedagsaam te wees? Is dit dalk dat my eie behoeftes en begeertes voorrang geniet bo die van ander?

Ons mag nooit vergeet dat onbedagsaamheid strydig is met die getuienis en roeping van Christene nie. Ons verteenwoordig Christus en hoe ons ander behandel se iets van ons verhouding met God. Wees tog bedagsaam.

My name is Mpho, I stay in Newcastle, KZN. I am here to testify about what Baba Nowa did in my life. He helped me with financial problems, since I have tried many doctors and read many Testimonies but never got help, when I read the testimony of Mr Mtuli that Baba Nowa had changed his life with only R150.

I decided to contact him for my problems, He asked to choose between lucky wallet and the short boys to put money in my account or Blackstone to bring Money in my house. I then chose the short boys to put money in my account. I was shocked after I waited a few hours to receive a notification from the bank That the money I chose was deposited into my bank account. My sister after seeing this, she also called and chose lucky wallet, since she was far she gave him her address then he sent the parcel to her via SPEED SERVICE COURIERS and she got it the same day. She got a lot of money from that wallet and paid him his percentage.

Thank you Baba Nowa for changing my life.

My family and friends I introduced to you Baba are now happy.

Tips to make food go further COMPILED BY ESTELLE SINKINS Following the recent unrest, during which many shops and warehouses were looted and burned to the ground, the number of people needing help with the most basic essentials.

Others are daunted by thought of having to stand in long queues in the middle of the third wave of the Covid-19 pandemic.

To try and help Laager Rooibos called on partners, specialist dietitian, Mbali Mapholi and chefs, Lebo and Tebo Ndala, to provide people with tips on how to make food last.

“During these unprecedented times, we must go back to basics,” said Mapholi. “My biggest advice is to not panic buy so that everyone is still able to get basic food items.

“A lot of people fear using canned food items, legumes, frozen and bottled food items, but these are key sources of nutrition particularly when fresh food is scarce.

“Below are some practical tips and recipes that will make these items go further.”

MEAT DISHES You can add canned legumes to meat dishes to bulk them up, while also adding wholegrains and dietary fibre to your diet.

Most people are eating more meat than we need anyway, so this is an opportunity to get used to smaller or fewer meat portions.

Mbali suggests the following: ) Add lentils or canned beans to ground beef or mincemeat (bolognaise sauce).

Work on the ratio of one can of lentils for every 500g ground beef. ) Add canned beans or chickpeas to chicken curry. If everyone in the household usually eats two pieces of chicken then decrease to one piece of chicken mixed with chickpeas and beans. ) Expand canned pilchards with canned baked beans. For a family of six, cook one can of pilchards and add one can of baked beans.

Lebo and Tebo suggestions include: ) Portion the meat before you freeze it so you only use the portion you want. ) Avoid defrosting and freezing again. ) Be careful of portion control and avoid cooking more than you need.

FROZEN VEGETABLES Frozen vegetables can be more nutritious than fresh vegetables because they are frozen straight from harvest, which saves a lot of nutrients normally lost in the food supply chain of fresh vegetables.

Add frozen vegetables to expand all the food meat dishes mentioned above.

Frozen vegetables can be added to casseroles and stews to stretch these, while adding nutrients.

According to nutritional guidelines, it is recommended that half our plate at main

meals should be vegetables.

You can also use frozen vegetables as a side dish, just remember to steam, sauté or cook them in a little water to preserve the nutrients.

TUBERS Potatoes, sweet potatoes and taro (amadumbe) are some popular nutritious tubers in South Africa, and these can expand meat or vegetable casseroles or stews, or be eaten as a staple in main meals.

Butternut is also a starchy vegetable that can be mixed in with potatoes or sweet potatoes to expand mashed potatoes for example.

BREAD Bread is a daily staple in most households, served at breakfast or lunch with non-perishable healthy protein sources such as peanut butter, canned fish with mayonnaise or jam.

If you have some bread bought in bulk you can freeze it so it lasts longer.

You can also use stale bread to make French toast – simply dredge slices of bread in eggs mixed with a bit of milk and fry in a bit of oil.

Ocon ecstatic, Vettel mortified in Hungary RACK ORQUE

by Rod Kinsey

ROD KINSEY

E

steban Ocon drove his heart out in Budapest last Sunday for the first F1 win of his ca-

reer.

The 24-year-old was brimful of youthful excitement and really deserved the win in very challenging but mixed conditions of rain and sun.

Sebastian Vettel was more than unlucky to be disqualified after the race, when only 0.3 litres of fuel

could be produced from his car, instead of the mandatory one litre required for testing by the stewards. He had run out of fuel on the slowing down lap of the race.

Hence Lewis Hamilton moved up to second position and Carlos Sainz in his Prancing Horse, sprung onto the podium in third.

Hungary is notorious for being difficult to pass, which made the race very challenging for both Vettel, Hamilton and others.

We saw a par excellence example of multiple World Champion, Fernando Alonso, who made it home fourth, making it very difficult for Lewis Hamilton to pass, without any foul play.

The two Alpines results of a first and fourth, created great encouragement and esprit de core in the Alpine/ Renault team, which will be very good for future motivation.

There were a number of retirements after a first lap coming to-

gether of cars, including Sergio Perez, Lando Norris, Charles Leclerc and later Valtteri Bottas.

Max Verstappen was unlucky again to be punted off the track, but managed to continue the race in a very damaged car, hastily repaired “as best as possible” in the pits. Pierre Gasly drove well into a very solid fifth position and team mate Yuki Tsunoda was sixth in the Honda powered Alphatauri’s.

Then came the two Williams Mercedes cars, with Nicholas Latifi just pipping his team mate George Russell by less than a tenth of a second in seventh and eighth places. Max Verstappen came home 9th and Kimi Raikkonen was 10th in his Alfa Romeo Racing Ferrari for the last point scoring position.

There is now a four week “summer break” before the Belgian Grand Prix on August 29. We motor buffs will suffer withdrawal symptoms, while those that dislike the “noise” will be happy.

Top tips to save money as fuel prices increase From Wednesday, August 4, South Africans will pay record prices for fuel – putting many cash-strapped households under even more pressure.

Through a few relatively simple and practical changes to the way they drive and maintain their cars, they can do their bit to save themselves some serious cash – around R20 000 a year.

“A few minor changes could lead to big savings. R100 here and R50 there eventually add up to substantial savings over a year,” says Susan Steward from Budget Insurance.

“The tweaks we can make on the road may seem insignificant, but could very well help you to buy other essentials, settle debt faster, save more or even go on that well-deserved family break.”

With a few minor adjustments to your driving habits and with regular car maintenance, you can boost the fuel efficiency of your car by as much as 40%. So, if you fill up four times a month, or 48 times a year at roughly R1000 per tank, a 40% reduction in fuel consumption could save you close to R20 000 a year.

Budget Insurance offers the following tips to save on fuel: 1.Service smart: A car can burn

f

up to 30% more fuel if proper maintenance is not performed on a regular schedule, so make sure that your car is serviced regularly. Things like worn spark plugs, worn rings, faulty injectors, sticky brakes, low coolant levels, dirty oil, and dirty filters all lead to inefficiency and higher fuel consumption 2.Wheel wise: Check your car’s wheel alignment. Bad wheel alignment causes more friction, which takes more power to overcome and results in higher fuel consumption.

3.Pressure check: Check for underinflated tyres, as these, too, increase resistance.

4.Air con costs a cool buck: Use the air conditioning only when necessary, as it places additional load on the engine.

5.Dead weight: Reduce the vehicle’s weight by removing unnecessary items from it and, if you mostly do city driving, consider driving with only half a tank of fuel.

6.Nice and slow: Don’t speed.

The gas-guzzling effects of “stepping on it” are well-known.

7.Don’t stop-start: Maintain momentum by looking and planning ahead, flowing with traffic and timing your approaches to hills, traffic lights and crossings better.

8.Geared for efficiency: Drive at the lowest speed in the highest gear that the road and traffic conditions allow, without labouring the engine.

9.Tech savvy: Many vehicles have economy settings to optimise performance, throttle response, ride height etc. for maximum fuel efficiency. Use them to your advantage.

10.Plan ahead: Use your GPS to check for traffic and avoid problem areas. Do several tasks on one round trip, as opposed to many shorter ones. This eliminates unnecessary mileage and saves time.

11.Wait out the rush: Battling through traffic not only increases fuel consumption, but also causes wear and tear, especially on your vehicle’s transmission and brakes.

“If it’s within your reach, it could also be a smart move to sell that big or old gas guzzler and rather invest in a vehicle that runs on less expensive fuel, or is just more economical to drive,” Steward concludes, “It needn’t cost and arm and a leg either. With a bit of smart bargain shopping you could save on repayments, maintenance costs, insurance and fuel.”

The Land Cruiser 300.

PHOTO: SUPPLIED

Land Cruiser 300 – muchanticipated local debut The eagerly awaited Land Cruiser 300 is set for an August debut on local soil. Following months of speculation, concept renderings and spy-shots, the first production models are ready to be shipped to eager buyers.

On the design front, the ‘300’ features a dramatically different profile to Its ‘200’ predecessor. While the design is unmistakably angular in execution, it creates a cohesive form that offers far greater dynamic presence with a sense of agility. In profile the newcomer bears a passing resemblance to the much-loved 80-series of the ‘90’s - keeping the classic two-box look.

The front façade features a large and prominent radiator grille with sculpted rectangular headlamps on each side, that blend seamlessly into the grille. U-shaped radiator openings underpin a strong design while the bonnet features the signature Land Cruiser ‘channel’ down the centre. The rear features large trapezoidal taillamps with stylised light guides which are complemented by large Land Cruiser lettering and the Toyota insignia.

The Land Cruiser 300 serves as the flagship to the Toyota SUV-range, and carries an enviable reputation as the ‘Master of Africa’. The ‘300’ model is a ‘ground-up’ design, featuring an all-new TNGA (Toyota New Global Architecture) platform designated as TNGA-F. The F indicates the first ladder-frame execution of TNGA - a fact that should find favour with off-road enthusiasts.

An all-new engine line-up propels the newcomer; buyers have the choice of a 3.5-litre V6 Twin Turbo petrol engine or 3.3-litre V6 Turbodiesel. Both powerplants focus on delivering increased efficiency, improved torque output and elevated levels of refinement versus the outgoing V8-variants.

The petrol V6 offers 305 kW @ 5200 rpm with a stout 650 Nm available from 2000 rpm, while the new diesel delivers 225 kW @ 4000 rpm with a ‘stump-pulling’ 700 Nm available between 1600 and 2600 rpm. Top speed is pegged at 210 km/ h for both variants. The new engines are mated to a new slick-shifting 10-speed automatic transmission with low-range functionality.

Fuel consumption figures are listed as 12.1 l/100 km for the petrol and 8.9 l/100 km for the diesel - with CO2 emissions checking in at 291 and 238 respectively.

The Land Cruiser 300 also introduces a new grade line-up, namely GX-R, ZX and GR-S. GX-R remains the utility-focussed model and serves as the entry point to the range, while the ZX replaces the VX-R as the luxury model.

For the first time on Land Cruiser, a GR Sport (aka GR-S) grade will be offered which serves as the off-road performance model. As such the GR-S features bespoke exterior styling and trim, rugged 18” alloy wheels, while adopting an off-road-biased specification list - without skimping on any comfort or convenience. This model joins the other Gazoo Racing (GR) products, and expands the GR brand into Land Cruiser territory for the first time.

The ZX model in turn takes on a more ‘image-focused’ persona, with unique 20” alloy wheels, chrome detailing and luxuryoriented interior trim. The Land Cruiser 300 range thus offers three distinct character profiles to choose from - Utility, Luxury and Sporty.

All models boast a comprehensive specification level including LED headlamps with integrated DRLs, keyless entry with auto-door-lock, park distance control, an electric parking brake, climate control with rear zone, power driver-seat adjustment, Multi-Information Display (MID), built-in navigation (with Tracks 4 Africa support on GX-R), multiple power outlets with charging port, Crawl Control and Drive Mode Select.

Sharks tight five working hard ahead of crucial Bulls match SITHEMBISO DINDI

E

xperienced tighthead prop Lourens Adriaanse has challenged the Sharks’ forward pack to up their game and start complementing the franchise’s exciting backline.

The coastal side are currently preparing to host the Bulls in a Currie Cup top-of-the-table battle at Kings Park Stadium in Durban on Friday on the back of a disappointing defeat to the Griquas last week.

The kick-off at this revised venue against the competition’s defending champions in the coastal city is scheduled for 7 pm.

For a long time now, the Sharks’ pack has had their performances heavily scrutinised when the result

doesn’t go their way.

Adriaanse, who returned to the Sharks in June from Europe, pointed out that some of their flaws, especially in the tight-five contributed massively to the Durbanites going down 37-27 to the third-placed Griquas at the weekend.

“Although we had some good scrums, there are two or three scrums that we let ourselves down on and they had a big influence in the game. And the mauls,” said the 33-year-old prop.

“I think on those two things, the tight five needs to drive themselves in.

‘We definitely have a lot of room to improve, and I think in general, you can never be satisfied with where you are at.

“After last week game, we definitely let ourselves down in that department

and it’s something that going forward we need to be better at in the future because I believe we’ve got exciting backs.

“As forwards that we need to give them the opportunity to score some good tries.”

It doesn’t get any easier for the Sharks as they face the Jake Whitecoached Bulls on Friday, but Adriaanse said the Sharks are not dreading facing their arch-rivals.

“We need to move on and the great thing about rugby is that we have another opportunity to get things right,” said Adriaanse.

“In our camp, there’s excitement because we are going to be playing against the strongest teams in South Africa.

“I think the mood in the camp is

good, in a sense that there’s an opportunity to play against them,” he said.

“The Bulls have been one of the better teams recently and if you look at the result, they have been the strongest team, our team is looking forward to the challenge of playing against them.”

Everitt is expected to name his matchday-23 at midday today.

CURRIE CUP FIXTURES Friday Griquas v Lions — 2.30 pm Sharks v Bulls — 7 pm Saturday WP v Cheetahs — 2.30 pm Sharks tighthead prop Lourens Adriaanse and his side are looking to return to winning ways against the Bulls on Friday.
