ALLEGEDLY
• A veil of secrecy surrounds the alleged arrest of Tim Maake , and his alleged subsequent release on bail of R50 000 •
Mopani District Municipality’s flamboyant manager, Mr Tim Maake, has allegedly been arrested in connection with corruption, but confirmation of this dramatic development, if true, seems to be impossible to obtain. He was allegedly arrested at about noon on Thursday 28 March, a day before Good Friday, and appeared in the Lenyenye Magistrate’s Court. At 17:45 that day, it is alleged, he was released on R50 000 bail. Our information is that he is to appear again in the same court on 5 May, pending further investigation. The regional secretary of SAMWU (SA Municipal Workers Union), Mr Cromwell Nhemo, said they were informed of Maake’s arrest. “Samwu is totally against any
form of corruption in municipalities. We believe the money that one person loots or spend in a corrupt way should be channelled towards service delivery,” he said. Maake’s alleged arrest comes just three months after the Hawks swooped in on the former Director of Water Services at the MDM, Itumeleng Charmaine Ledwaba, for submitting a fraudulent CV to secure her job. This led to SAMWU’s call for further investigation into the MDM, alleging that there was more suspicious things happening in the MDM than meets the eye. • The communications chief of the Police in Tzaneen, Lt-col Moatsha Ngoepe, said he didn’t know anything about the case.
• The spokesperson for the Hawks, Mr Paul Ramaloko, also said he couldn’t confirm an arrest. • When asked about Maake’s arrest and where it put the MDM and other seniors, their spokesman, Mr Neil Shikwambana, did not respond. He clearly struggled to find answers to the questions sent to him. He is always very punctual and efficient in responding to media enquiries, but this time around he seemed to have been restricted. When we eventually called and reminded him that we needed their comment, Shikwambana said: “Chief, I have written your comment but I sent it up for approval. You know

Van Zyl, wat indrukwekkend wel ter tale is, het gewys dat die breinstrust van die ZZ2-groep presies weet waar hulle is, en waarheen hulle op pad is om dié makro-boerdery die toekoms in te neem — met goeie lesse vir Suid-Afrikaners.

Maake’s lawyer, Mr Chris Mahowa, the senior prosecutor at Lenyenye, the mayor of the MDM, Mr Joshua Matlou, and senior ANC members in Mopani were not available for comment.
In the meantime,
many people throughout
Limpopo are speculating about the position of the province’s Premier, Mr Cassel Mathale. He is said to be on extremely thin ice as far as the premiership is concerned, but rumour also has it that Mathale may well expect a visit from the Hawks quite soon — at least to clear up certain matters or for information that he as Premier could have and which would help sorting out the alleged abuse of the tender process in the province.

Die tyd sal leer Tyd, het Vlieg agtergekom, is soos baie ander dinge in die lewe ook ‘n relatiewe begrip. Wat vir Vlieg ‘n lang tydsverloop is, is vir iemand anders dalk net ‘n oomblik — en andersom, natuurlik. Neem ses jaar, byvoorbeeld. Vir ‘n kremetartboom, ‘n eendersdenkende andersdenkende wat homself graag bemoei met die evolusieteorie, of vir Metusalem, is ses jaar eintlik niks. As’t ware in ‘n ommesientjie verby. Vir ‘n maaier weer is ses jaar ‘n baie, baie lang tyd waarin hy inderdaad meer leer as in die res van sy lewe. In ‘n maaier se eerste ses jaar leer hy asemhaal, eet, sien, hoor, sit, staan, loop, praat en al die ander basiese lewensvaardighede. Vir die daaropvolgende ses jaar leer hy teken, skryf, lees, somme maak, bid, redeneer, vrae stel, leer, respekteer, admireer en ander sekondêre lewensvaardighede. Dis nou voor hulle in papies verander en vir die volgende ses jaar net vry en puisies uitdruk! • 312 weke. 2 190 dae. 52 560 ure. 3 153
Vlieg praat met die Volk en krap waar dit jeuk... 600 minute. 189 216 000 sekondes. Sonder skrikkeljare, dit is hoe lank ses jaar presies is. Hoewel die eerste ses jaar op skool vir die span maaiers ‘n baie lang tyd is, blyk dit nou vir Vlieg dat ses jaar in die pedagogiese kalender wel eintlik te kort is. Want nadat maaiers die grootste gedeelte van hierdie ses jaar onder die neuse en toesig van pedagoë bestee, weet die pedagoë selfs nie na hierdie ses jaar watter van die maaiertjies geskik is om die trop te lei nie. Daardie pedagogiese kalender het nog maande nodig vir dié funksie. En nodeloos om te sê dat sekere maaiers in daardie drie maande ook baie vinnig ekstra vaardighede aanleer, soos snobisme, afguns, katterigheid en dies meer. Vlieg wonder maar net hoe dit gebeur dat enige pedagoog wat sy sout werd is, ‘n maaier beter leer ken in drie maande as in ses jaar, en wat die opvoedkundige waarde daarvan is om hulle die ekstra voormelde vaardighede te leer. V.i.(Vlieg’s insiens) sal die tyd leer…

Traffic lights to be fixed
Is dit nodig om iets te sê?
The problem of flickering traffic lights have been plaguing Tzaneen for some time. As soon as one is fixed, another is hit by a vehicle or acts up and requires fixing. The Bulletin previously reported that experts from Johannesburg had to be called upon to fix certain technical problems. This caused a serious delay in the process. The newest flickering lights are at the entrance to town (R71) at the turn-off to the new Lifestyle Centre. These lights have not
Dit is seker onnodig om iets te sê oor die twee foto’s. Maar dit is tog nodig om te vra hoekom motoriste verkeerstekens en verkeersreëls so maklik minag? Dit is daagliks in Tzaneen sigbaar hoe verkeersligte geminag word (‘n geel lig beteken byvoorbeeld nie dit is tyd om te versnel nie!), parkering vir gestremdes deur gesonde mense misbruik word, taxi’s stop net waar hulle wil, ensovoorts. Dit is in die belang van padveiligheid om verkeerstekens te respekteer, want dikwels gaan dit om ingange wat versper word en wanneer noodvoertuie dan daardie in- of uitgange moet gebruik, is dit versper; met gevolglike probleme om die noodtoestand behoorlik die hoof te kan bied. Wetsongehoorsaamheid dra nie by tot ‘n beter en voorspoediger Suid-Afrika vir ons almal nie.
Residents left in the dark
of good quality education have been relegated to the side, according to Van der Walt. “In fact, nowhere in his speech did the MEC even acknowledge the fact that for the past two academic years, his department has failed to deliver textbooks on time to the learners of the province. “This was largely due to politically connected middlemen who inflated the costs of delivering textbooks. These tender irregularities account for the department’s financial problems and explain its disclaimers for the past five years under MEC Masemola. “Contrasts the meagre R997 million allocated for school infrastructure development and R1,1 billion for MEC Maseloma’s support staff. This is notwithstanding the fact that examples abound in the province of overcrowded classrooms and dilapidated buildings,” she said.
Non-operational street lights in some areas in Tzaneen and Letsitele have left many residents in the dark. Residents of two streets in Letsitele have struggled to get their street lights working for the last three weeks. “I’m worried about my safety. In these times you can never be too careful. And now I can’t see if anything suspicious is happening around my house or in my street,” one resident complained. The GTM is, however, attending to the problem, according to Mr Pierre van den Heever, the GTM’s director of electrical engineering. He stated that there is a backlog because of vehicles that were out of order. They are currently trying to catch up and he urges residents to keep reporting problems with street lights. — Retha Nel retha@bulletin.us.com

Textbook amnesia in budget Limpopo’s Education MEC, Mr Dickson Masemola, presented no solutions to the textbook or infrastructure crisis in his budget speech earlier this week. So said Ms Desiree van der Walt of the DA. “The MEC’s lack of leadership is a worrying sign that the R23 billion budget announced today will not be used to improve the quality of our learners’ education. This speech sidestepped the very pressing delivery concerns faced by our education system, namely the failure to make sure that textbooks are delivered on time and infrastructure problems faced by most of our public schools,” she said. Of the R23 billion, 83% (R19 billion) is budgeted for the compensation of employees, including those officials of the department who are allegedly responsible for bringing it down. Budgetary considerations for the department’s main mandate, which is the provision

According to him there is a problem with the sensor that detects vehicles at the lights, which could cause serious accidents if not operational. Due to the highly technical nature of the problem, it will take some time to fix. — Retha Nel

Sixty arrested for drinking The Bolobedu police made headway in keeping the area safe, with 93 people having been arrested for various crimes. Sixty of these suspects were arrested for drinking in public, eleven for assault GBH and three for theft out of a motor vehicle. Two people were arrested in connection with murder incidents, two for illegal gambling and two for assault. One person each was arrested for rape, driving under the influence of liquor, the planting of dagga, possession of dagga, selling liquor without a licence, theft from a motor vehicle, failure to comply with a maintenance order, possession of ammunition, robbery and contravention of a protection order. A rape suspect, Ngwako Prince Nakana (22), appeared in the Bolobedu Magistrate’s Court on Monday. He is suspected of raping eight children at Ienokwe village. His case was remanded to 30 May. Another suspect, France Malula, who allegedly murdered his wife in December last year, will appear in court on 24 April. Bolobedu police would like to thank the villagers of Motsinoni for reporting these incidents immediately. This helped police arrest the suspects without delay.
Motorists beware! Letsitele police arrested 37 suspects during the past week. The most arrests made were the seventeen people who violated the Road Traffic Act. With the school holidays causing increased traffic, the police kept a sharp eye. “We are requesting motorists to obey
Mabunda thanked community members for the part they play in catching criminals: “We are grateful to the people who are assisting the police.”
Successes in Tzaneen With school holidays causing an increased amount of people in the streets of Tzaneen, police had a successful week curbing crime. Six people were arrested for shoplifting and eight single arrests were made for theft, housebreaking and theft, driving under the influence of alcohol, fraud, crimen injuria, assault GBH, attempted robbery and possession of a dangerous weapon.
Two dead after drinking beer Two dead bodies of men aged between 44 and 47, were found side by side inside a house at Segwashi village, Haenertsburg, on Saturday. According to Haenertsburg police communication officer, Const Muchuchu Hlomela, the two men were found inside the house and next to their corpses police found half a bottle of beer and two opened sorghum beers.
Search “Laeveld Bulletin” The deceased is a black, adult man, aged between 30 and 35. He was wearing blue jeans and white running shoes. The police are looking for relatives or any person who can identify the body. They can contact D/sgt Elvis Makhubela on 082 254 2544 or 015 306 2104.
Anti-rape campaign The commanding officer of the Tzaneen Cluster of the SAPS, Maj Genl M K Mathebula, confirmed that the police will continue with their campaign against rape in the area. On Wednesday a successful gathering was held at Mokgolobotho, including a door-to-door campaign and street-by-street demonstrations against incidents of rape. A number of experts, including forensic nurses, social workers, church personnel, the National Prosecuting Authority and the SAPS addressed the people. Mathebula and the GTM’s mayor were the main speakers. Two men who were sentenced for rape for talked to the men about the preven-

Full force in Ritavi The SAPS in Ritavi went out in full force to clean the streets and ensuring that all community members could enjoy a peaceful week, and 22 law offenders were arrested for drinking in public. Fourteen people were nabbed for assault GBH, six arrests were made for assault common and six transgressors were arrested for robbery. The police also made single arrests: one person for possession of counterfeit goods; one for possession of dagga and one for malicious damage to property. Five people were arrested for violating the Road Traffic Act. Four people were arrested for possession of dangerous weapons, two were arrested for illegal possession of firearms and two people were arrested for theft.
Muyexe teacher let off the hook
Hlomela said it is alleged that the two deceased drunk a poisoned beer as they vomited before dying. The police are waiting for the post-mortem results to determine the real cause of the death and a an inquest will be held.
Do you know this person? A case of culpable homicide is being investigated after the death of a man who had been run over by a vehicle on Saturday night around 22:30. The man is believed to have been trying to run across the R71 (between Tzaneen and Phalaborwa) near Venbeck, when he was run over by VW City Golf. He died on the scene. The body was taken to the Letaba State Mortuary. The driver of the Golf said that he did not see the deceased as it was dark and it happened very quickly.

A 48-year old teacher, who was accused of selling a truck belonging to a project in Muyexe village, was found not guilty of theft after the magistrate found that it was within his powers to sell the truck. The teacher, Mr John Yingwani Maluleke, who is widely known as John Mahosi, was placed by the community to be head of the board of directors of the Wansati-Uwa-Apfuka Bricks Making Project at Muyexe (near Giyani).

poor communities. Since most of the members of the project were not properly educated to run the project on their own, Maluleke was chosen by the community to partially head the projects by providing leadership where necessary. This included being in charge of its finances. The project members, however, later accused him of stealing the project’s truck and selling it without their consent. They reported the matter to the police after Maluleke had failed to tell them about the whereabouts of the truck. During police investigation, it was later found that the truck had been sold to a truck dealer in Polokwane. In his argument in court, Maluleke argued that he did not steal the truck. He confirmed that he had sold it to the benefit of the project. He also told the court that he still had money for the truck in the bank account of the project, and that he was keeping it safely to the benefit of the project. The court ruled that the members of the project should go back to the drawing board and resolve the matter amicably with Maluleke as the head of their board of directors. Speaking on behalf of the project, the ward councillor at the village, Ms Nelly Mabasa, said they were not happy with the court’s decision, since their side of the story was not fully heard. “We will appeal the decision… the ruling was very unfair in the sense that the owners of the project were not even given an opportunity to speak, and only one witness from our side was allowed to speak,” she said. Meanwhile Maluleke was not available for comment. — Orlando Chauke orlando@bulletin.us.com

Meanwhile the affected members are crying foul, saying the termination of their service was not fair, since many of them had not fully understood the conditions under which they were employed.
“I understand that we were already working as ward committee members; but the formal induction was done two months back, meaning that technically we had not fully grasped the terms and conditions of our job as ward committee members,” said one of the members, Mr Lawrence Mthombeni.

They will need to provide the parrot’s ring number for positive identification.

Die positiewe Ons loop gevaar om so opgewerk te raak oor al die verkeerde of negatiewe dinge in ons land, dat ons verblind word en nie meer die goeie en die positiewe kan sien en waardeer nie. Ja, volgende jaar gaan ons ‘n algemene verkiesing hê en die politici sál probeer om die stemvee met goeie en positiewe dade te beïndruk. Dit moet ons egter nie totaal en al sinies laat nie en daar moet erkenning wees vir dit wat gedoen word om ons omstandighede te verbeter. Die Bulletin as koerant probeer hard om ook die positiewe en die goeie te belig, al is dit nie altyd so maklik en so volop om die goeie en positiewe raak te sien nie. Mense moet nou ook begin besef: deur mee te doen aan wetteloosheid en korrupsie gaan nie sorg dat ons ‘n beter land ontwikkel nie. Deur rommel te strooi, verkeersreëls te verontagsaam, omkoopgeld aan te bied, spanning tussen mense en rasse aan te hits en dies meer, word geen bydrae tot ‘n skoner, beter, veiliger SA gelewer nie. Wat doen jy? Help jy bou, of breek jy af?
Moenie vergeet nie!
ANC not above constitution Joy Matshoge, ANC PTT — Provincial Secretary, writes: The articles in the Mail and Guardian, date 05 April and in the Sunday Times, dated 07 April 2013, (and some other newspapers) by a well respected journalist, Mondli Makhanya, which talks much about the ANC PTT taking over the Limpopo government it’s very much disturbing and misleading our nation. More than anything journalists of these stature relies on hearsay meant to destroy the image of the PTT and the ANC. We have in the past indicated to the nation that the media is hell-bent on destabilizing our country and taking an advantage of our hard-earned democracy. Our Constitution recognizes the important role of media in nurturing and strengthening our democracy, however that should be exercised with outmost responsibility. That being the case our national news papers went on a spree to trade lies without validating the facts. Such actions are viewed as plagiarism, a breach of journalistic ethics. Journalists who penned these articles did not adhere to the basic rules of professional journalism. We understand journalists are working under enormous pressure to meet deadlines, but that does not make them immune to the ethics of the profession. I can confirm that Mondli Makhanya and the rest of journalists were not audience or participated in the meeting where these allegations were raised; he has not heard or witnessed and experienced first-hand information. He relied on faceless individuals without validating the information with an authorized member of the PTT. Mr. Mondli Makhanya’s opinion is defamatory, suggesting that the ANC has lost morality and intends taking over govern-

Round Table Tzaneen celebrates half a century To celebrate their fifty year anniversary the Round Table 96 Tzaneen is holding a special show on 26 April. It will be held at the Highgrove Tavern Tent at 18:30 for 19:00. Cost will be R280 per person and includes a welcome drink, a threecourse dinner, a performance by Lumbus Fratre (60’s to now) and an auction. The proceeds of the evening will go to Tzaneen Primary’s class for learners with special educational needs (LSEN). The class consists of eleven children, aged between seven and thirteen, with special needs. These special needs involve specialists like occupational and speech therapists. Teacher salaries, therapeutic equipment
and psychometric tests also end up being costly. The costs to attend to these children’s needs exceed R200 000 each year. The Round Table is therefore aiming to help them by providing some financial relief. Depending on the number of people attending the show and the donations for the auction, they hope to raise between R 20 000 and R40 000. The Round Table needs the community’s help to make this a success and ask them to donate items for the auction. Any item of some value, that has a special meaning to it or even just an interesting item will help to increase the proceeds. For more information: Henco Prinsloo (vice chairman RT 96 Tzaneen) on 082 801 9743.
Letters • Briewe ment administration. We view his article and others as irresponsible and lazy journalism rushing to meet deadlines. These allegations have been fabricated against the PTT as we motion to rebuild the ANC and its structures in the province. The PTT will not be defocused by such individuals; we remain resolute and unshaken in meeting the NEC mandate in terms of rebuilding and uniting the ANC. It is unbelievable that a journalist of Mr. Mondli’s caliber relied on unreliable and invalidated information. On records the PTT has never instructed government to submit tenders to Frans Mohlala House for adjudication. The allegation is quite disturbing and should be dismissed with the contempt it deserves. The ANC is committed to the South African Constitution and have always been adhering to its principles and provisions. We therefore call upon journalists like Mondli Makhanya to stop misleading the nation in order to raise sales and profit. Our constitution is clear on the role and responsibility of government, therefore no provision is made mention about the ANC. We want to put it on record that the ANC itself as the oldest liberation political party in the continent is not above the constitution of the Republic of South Africa. For starters, there is nowhere in the constitution where it says ANC must take over the administration or can be consulted on tenders and appointment of civil servants. We don’t have the constitutional mandate over government. The media has demonstrated its leader-
ship immaturity and naivety in distinguishing between the state and the party. It failed to distinguish between ANC policies and government administrative issues. We reject any attempt by media to misrepresent the provision of the constitution. Mayors account to the ANC since they have been deployed to accelerate the implementation of policies, programs and elections manifesto of the ANC. Therefore the ANC is duty bound to perform an oversight function to ensure that local government stays true to its mandate. We owe it to the electorate of this province and the entire country. Our deployees were given marching orders on issues pertaining to governance in the local municipalities. This forms part of the ANC to continually monitor local government performance. This is long overdue, however the PTT is convinced that this approach will measure performance, improve our policy quality and ensures it contributes to a better records in ensuring these policies and programs improves the lives of the people. The meeting with our deployees was based on such, not on allegations traded by Mr Mondli and his crew. We dismiss that tenders form part of our discussion on the day in question. Our responsibility is to ensure that our policies and programs are strictly adhered to, and aimed at addressing inequality, unemployment and poverty. Where there are violations, action will be taken internally. The President has enlisted tried and tested comrades to the PTT, therefore we remain un-intimidated, solid and united.
When preparing for the Sunday service, I came across the following confession set for this Sunday from the book from Ekklesia, an organization of the University of Stellenbosch and I thought I should share it. Perhaps, one could use it in our daily prayers? “ O God our Father, We acknowledge that You are the light and in You there is no darkness at all. We acknowledge that You are of purer eyes than to behold evil. We acknowledge that You are Holy and command us to be holy also. We admit that we have sinned against You in word, thought and deed. We admit that we have left undone the things that we ought to have done. We admit that we have not always sought Your kingdom and its righteousness. We admit that we have not loved You with all our heart, mind, soul and strength. We admit that we have not loved our neighbours as ourselves, nor loved our enemies. We admit that we have fallen far short of Your glory and standards. We admit that we have gone astray like lost sheep and turn everyone to his or her own way. We admit that we have been cowardly and not always stood up for the right. We admit that we have been ashamed of the Gospel, the power of God unto salvation. We admit that we have not been bold as the apostles and the early church were. We come into Your presence with contrite hearts, seeking Your forgiveness. We claim Your promise that “If we confess our sins, You are faithful and just and will forgive our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” We acknowledge that all sin is ultimately against You and therefore pray that You will forgive all our sins. We ask all this in the name of Jesus Christ our Saviour who bore our sins in His body on the cross. Amen. Blessings We view such actions as a bid to scuffle the ongoing ANC renewal program in the province. We condemn in strongest terms the spirited efforts by Mr Mondli and his cronies to go public without verifying the facts. Their intension is to reverse the gains of our liberation and surrender our sovereignty to foreign power. The PTT has not employed faceless people as its mouth piece, there it’s a calling to all media houses to desists from hearsay; rumours; gossips that seek to create political and social distance between the PTT and ANC structures by spreading propaganda.
And these prostitutes? Rev Ronald John Reiners, P O Box 7150, Tzaneng Mall, writes: I often read with some interest the report by the police on the statistics of crime in our area of Tzaneen. I also note how many cases of prostitution or those involved in this have been arrested. My concern, however, is about the “ladies” plying their trade on the Agatha Road which leads up to the Coach House Hotel, also known as the AH, or station road. They are there on a daily basis and get quite aggressive if you dare to stop and confront them. Not only this but they litter the place and where do they relieve themselves when the need arises? In the bushes? Not only are they breaking the law by plying their trade, but they are a health risk. I have often raised this point at various times with the police, to no avail. I am aware that due to the law it is difficult to prove they are soliciting but I feel that if there were more police patrols on this road, not only they but their clients would find it difficult to continue this illegal practice. But then again with the state of the roads in our beloved Tzaneen, perhaps more damage would be done to the patrol cars than it is worth.

Veteran aircraft enthusiasts from Tzaneen were thrilled when they were treated to a flight overlooking the breathtaking scenes of the Tzaneen area at sunset on Monday. Three men who founded the Letaba Flying Club in 1956, along with another enthusiast and a journalist from the Bulletin were taken up into the air, where they flew through the clear skies. According to Mr Tienie Prinsloo, an experienced pilot and member of the club, it has been years since these men had flown. They were strapped into their seats and taken over the Tzaneen Dam, Agatha and the Letsitele Valley. The brand new landing lights (that were installed by club members) shone clearly on the landing strip, promising much safer landings to pilots. Seen here are the three founders, messrs Mike Amm, Len Hobson and Julius Heim, accompanied by Mr Eric Baker. The Bulletin would like to thank the Letaba Flying Club, in particular Mr Tienie Prinsloo, for letting us experience Tzaneen from the sky, as well as the company of the three veterans.

The South African National Blood Service (SANBS) held a Lucky Draw competition during March. Each blood donor stood a chance to win a “director’s chair” — an SANBS version of Steven Spielberg’s directing chair in Hollywood. The goal of the competition was to lure more blood donors to the blood center, and to recruit old regulars. This resulted in nearly hundred units being donated at the Tzaneen Donor Center during March. The lucky winner of the draw was Mr Arthur Stead, who received the prized director’s chair. The SANBS urges all those eligible for donating blood to make a regular contribution at their nearest Donor Centre. Blood donors can donate every 56 days at the Tzaneen Donor Centre.

Adam’s coffee corner The days of residents travelling across town for lunch and professionals having lunch at their office desks are over. Adam’s Café in Tzaneen opened doors to their charming coffee shop to provide a good dining experience for customers. Adam’s Coffee Corner is an extension of the neighbourhood favourite Adam’s Café, but a department on its own. Situated just besides Adam’s Café, the Coffee Corner will provide a relaxed atmosphere with flowers and a water feature to help provide the perfect escape from the office. Adam’s Coffee Corner has been equipped with ten tables
and forty chairs and is suited for that nice lunch away or a quick drink. The coffee shop will have waiters to take customers’ orders with basically the same menu as Adam’s Café. Whether you are in the mood for a quick coffee break or a well prepared lunch that won’t break the bank, Adam’s Coffee Corner is the answer. They specialize in coffee, milkshakes, cappuccinos with a variety of sweet and savory pancakes as well as a cake of the day, baked by Tzaneen very own Leo’s cakes. They invite people to try their breakfast menu which makes for the ideal treat on a Saturday morning. They are open Mondays to Fridays from 09:00 till 16:30 and 09:00 to 13:00 on Saturdays. Visit them at 2 Peace Street (where Agatha Street forks) or call them on 015 307 3993.

Die vriendelike kelner by die Food Lover’s Market in Tzaneen, wat verlede naweek in ‘n motorfietsongeluk was, toon tans tekens van herstel. Mnr Francois Pretorius (21)
het vroeg verlede Saterdagoggend beheer oor sy vierwielmotorfiets verloor en teen ‘n muur naby die treinstasie vasgery. Hy word tans in die hoësorgeenheid van die Letaba Hospitaal behandel. Volgens sy ma, me Arlene Pretorius, het hy eers ‘n terugslag beleef toe medici hom van sy slaapmiddels afgehaal het. “Dit gaan egter nou beter en hy word stadiger bygebring terwyl sy medikasie afneem.”
Die verligte ma sê dat haar seun ook nie meer ‘n operasie aan sy brein hoef te ondergaan nie, aangesien die bloed gedreineer word. “Francois is aansienlik kalmer en dit lyk asof hy ons kan hoor praat. Hy het ook my hand gedruk”, sê Arlene. Volgens haar sal Francois nog ‘n week in die hospitaal deurbring, alvorens verdere toetse gedoen sal word. —Amelia de Ridder

Phones blamed for pre-mature sex Parents of the N’wadzekudzeku village outside Giyani label cellular phones as the number one culprit responsible for the rise in the number of kids that are having sex at a young age. Parents say they worry about the anywhere-anytime communication between kids, as they struggle to keep their kids at home. The parent voiced their concerns during a gender-based violence campaign held by the Greater Giyani Municipality. “With social networks such as Whats-App it has become much easier for them to contact each other behind your back,” said one parent, Mr Piet Hlungwani. He said in most cases parents only notice the problem when their child is pregnant. “These kids do nothing else at home but sit with their phones and wait for calls or text that would invite them somewhere to do
naughty things,” commented another parent, Ms Mavis Mabasa, blaming too many rights being given to kids. “If you try to instil discipline in the house they say its abuse and the police come running to arrest you. As parents our hands are tied,”she said.
In response, Sgnt Maria Seko of the Giyani police said there were no rights that allowed kids to have sex while unde-aged and that children under sixteen that are found to be engaging in sexual activities will be arrested. — Orlando Chauke orlando@bulletin.us.com

BJV help weer kinders Vir die twintigste agtereenvolgende jaar het die Bosveld Jagtersvereniging (Letaba) weer ‘n Junior 1-jagterskursus aangebied. Tien kinders tussen die ouederdomme nege en twaalf jaar het die kursus bygewoon. Basiese wapenhantering en wapenveiligheid asook die etiese sy van jag is behandel. Van die hoogtepunte vir die kinders was die kamoeflering, slag van ‘n bok en die praktiese skietgedeelte. Hulle het ook ‘n vuurmaakkompetisie gehou, waar Ruan Fourie sy slag
gewys het. Hy kan nie net vuurmaak nie maar het ook die beste telling tydens die praktiese skietkompetisie behaal. Al die kinders het hul praktiese skiet- en teorietoets geslaag. Die ywerige jagtertjies sien uit na die Junior II-kursus waartydens hulle onder toesig van opgeleide instrukteurs vir hul eerste bok gaan jag. As daar genoeg belangstelling is, sal ‘n tweede kursus van die aard aangebied word. Kontak Tinus Erasmus by 082 739 0414 vir verdere navrae.

Louw Swanepoel, competition cecretary, added a “twist in the tail” to the competition, by introducing a rule where each player was allowed to “buy back” a bowl per game at R10 a time — provided that the bowl in question was “clean” and had not touched another bowl.

Lekker rugby, maar 12 April 2013
bitter min geesdriftiges en min ondersteuning
Die verheugde spelers van Mopani wat Saterdag gewys het dat Limpopo se rugbykrag steeds in dié streek is, toe hulle Vhembe in die eindstryd geklop het.
Rugbyliefhebbers van Tzaneen en omgewing kon Vrydag en Saterdag op eie bodem ‘n groot rugbytoernooi geniet, toe spanne van Capricorn, Vhembe, Waterberg en Mopani tydens die
Limpopo Blou Bulle inter-subunie kampioenskappe op die Hoërskool Merensky se rugbyvelde meegeding het. Ongelukig was die bywoning swak tot baie swak (terwyl die toegang gratis was) en is verskeie goeie wedstryde voor ‘n handjievol toeskouers beslis. Vrydagmiddag het o.22-, senior- en sewesspanne aan uitspeelwedstryde deelgeneem. In die o.22’s se afdeling het Vhembe vir Capricorn met 5717 geklop. Rick Wolfvaardt van Vhembe is as speler van die wedstryd gekies. Mopani moes die spit afbyt teen Waterberg, met ‘n telling van 19-24. Grant Pinto van Mopani is daar as die speler van die wedstryd aangewys.
Die seniors het ook ‘n goeie vertoning gelewer, met Vhembe en Waterberg wat ‘n telling van 29-25 in die guns van Vhembe behaal het. Johan de Beer van Vhembe was die speler van die wedstryd. Mopani het Capricorn daarna ‘n behoorlike loesing gegee met ‘n telling van 55-17. Die speler van die wedstryd was Mopani se Stoffel Vermaak. Saterdag is die dames ook betrek, met twee vrouespanne van Mopani en Capricorn wat op die Bveld kragte gemeet het. Capricorn het ‘n oortuigende oorwinning van 22-0 oor Mopani behaal. Miranda Magoka van Capricorn is as speler van die wedstryd gekies. Twee ontwikkelingspanne het ook hul staal gewys en Jeug Suid het Jeug Noord geklop met 24-0. Die eindstryd van die onderskeie
Dit was die treurige prentjie Saterdag by die Hoërskool Merensky, waar een van die grootste rugbytoernooie in baie jare aangebied is... erg leë pawiljoene.
afdelings is ook Saterdag gehou. Waterberg het Vhembe geklop, om die wenners van die 7’s-afdeling te word, terwyl Mopani derde geëindig het in hul wedstryd teen Capricorn. In die o.22’s se afdeling het Mopani derde en Capricorn vierde geëindig (22-10). Wikus Steyn van Mopani was speler van die wedstryd. Waterberg het Vhembe met 55-18 geklop en is as wenners gekroon. Chris de Witt van Waterberg is as speler van die wedstryd gekies. Waterberg was derde in die senior spanne se afdeling en het Capricorn met 74-0 geklop. Martin Herbst van Waterberg was die speler van dié wedstryd. In die eindstryd laat Saterdagmiddag het Mopani en Vhembe
hard beklei om die beker, maar Mopani het gewen met 32-14. JuanPierre Kardos van Mopani het die trofee vir speler van die wedstryd ontvang. Die hoogtepunt van die toernooi was natuurlik die wedstryd tussen die Valke en die Limpopo Blou Bulle Saterdagmiddag. Dit was bloedig warm en ondersteuners het die koeltekolle uitgesoek, om begeesterd vir hul gunstelingspan te skree. Teen rustyd het die Valke reeds met 38-0 voorgeloop. Die Bulle het egter vir ‘n hele paar oomblikke se opwinding gesorg, toe hul uiteindelik ‘n spogdrie gedruk het. Die Valke het egter steeds koning gekraai met ‘n eindtelling van 67-7. — Retha Nel retha@bulletin.us.com
Kom skiet gou!
Dit is maar soos dit was; die Valke het in alle fasette van die spel oorheers.
JP Kardos (Mopani se heelagter) was die speler van die wedstryd in die eindstryd.
Die vroue van Mopani moes die knie buig teen hul eweknieë van Capricorn, met ‘n telling van 22-0.
