‘Helponspolisie’
LIENTJIE MENTZ
Die waarnemende minister van polisie, Firoz Cachalia, het die volwaardige Sonskyn-polisiekantoor in Bloemfontein op Dinsdag 7 Oktober geopen
Dié polisiekantoor in Fase 5 van Bloemspruit was tot nou toe ’ n satelliet van die Bloemspruitpolisiekantoor, maar die gebied was te groot om tred te hou met die diens wat die polisie hier moes lewer
Volgens Cachalia is die opening van die ten volle toegeruste polisiekantoor te danke aan die aandrang van die gemeenskap
“Die nasionale kommissaris van polisie het ’ n pad gevind met die hulpbronne wat beskikbaar was om te voldoen aandrang van die gemeenskap op ’ n veiliger omgewing”
Dié kommissaris, genl Fannie Masemola, het gemeenskapslede gewaarsku om nie die nuwe polisiekantoor met geweld te vernietig as hulle nie met die diens tevrede is nie “As ’ n gemeenskap ’ n polisiekantoor

beskadig, kry hulle nie weer ’ n nuwe een nie,” het hy op die geleentheid gesê
Die opening van die Sonskynpolisiekantoor, die eerste in baie jare in die groter Mangaung-omgewing, het saamgeval met die bekendstelling van die polisie se veldtog om ’ n veiliger Kerstyd in te gaan
Die feestyd-veldtog is Dinsdag by die Dr Rantlai Molemela-stadion bekendgestel
Masemola het die publiek gewaarsu om nie die gesag van die manne en vroue in blou uniform te verontagsaam nie
Daarmee het hy verwys na ’ n video van ’ n voorval in Kimberley waar twee
mans in hegtenis geneem is vir die aanval op ’ n vroulike polisiebeampte
“Enigiemand wat probeer om polisiebeamptes te keer om hul daat in die voorkoming en beka van misdaad uit te voer, sal te st kom voor die volle mag van die sê Masemola in ’ n nuusverklaring wat voor die veldtog-bekendstelling uitgereik is Hy sê polisiebeamptes is ook moeders en vaders, wat hul gesinne verlaat om hul lewe te waag om wet en orde te handhaaf om te verseker dat almal binne die grense van Suid-Afrika te alle tye veilig is

“Suid-Afrikaners het ’ n soortgelyke verantwoordelikheid om polisiebeamptes te beskerm en op te staan teen polisie-aanvalle en -moorde Misdaad kan slegs in ons gemeenskappe uitgeroei word as gemeenskapslede die wet respekteer en die Suid-Afrikaanse Polisiediens (SAPD) ondersteun
“Die verantwoordelikheid van die SAPD is om sy grondwetlike mandaat uit te voer naamlik om misdaad te voorkom, te bekamp en te ondersoek; die handhaaf openbare orde; asook
die besekerming van die inwoners van Suid-Afrika en hul eiendom” Hy sê die polisie se taak is nie maklik nie
“Terwyl ons voorberei om ons polisiebedrywighede te verhoog om ernstige en gewelddadige misdaad te voorkom en te bekamp, insluitend gewapende rooftogte, transito-rooftogte, geslagsgeweld en alle kriminele aktiwiteite, doen ek ’ n beroep op ons gemeenskappe om met ons polisiebeamptes saam te werk en hulle te beskerm”
Students in firing line
LIENTJIE MENTZ
Students at the University of the Free State (UFS) handed over a memorandum of demands to senior management on 8 October, after it became known that management had decided to discontinue provisional registration from the 2026 academic year.
Wannè Andrews of the Democratic Alliance Student Organisation (DASO) at the UFS said the decision to stop provisional registration for students that can not afford to pay the more than R9 000 at the beginning of the academic year, leaves thousands of students unable to initiate or further their studies
Senior director of communication and marketing of the UFS, Lacea Loader, responded with confirmation that the institution approved the discontinuation of provisional registration with effect from 2026
Students will need to settle fees for 2025, make the first payment, or have proof of full funding before 2026 registration opens She said the UFS has for many years been the only university that allowed students to register while they still had outstanding fees
“This practice reflected the university’s commitment to access and success for all”
She said the UFS was deeply concerned about the rising levels of student debt and the impact this has on both students and the institution
“A comprehensive review of the 2025 registration data found that provisional registration is not an effective mechanism to
support students with financial challenges,” Loader said
“Each year, an average of 8% of UFS students register provisionally In 2025, the majority of students who registered provisionally and signed payment arrangements were unable to meet their commitments: 58% paid no fees, while only 14% managed to settle their fees in full As a result, most of these students would still face deregistration by mid-year due to unresolved historic debt
“Notably, students who successfully converted from provisional to full registration did so primarily through UFS-funded bursaries, rather than personal payment”
Andrews said the decision is a regressive and damaging policy that infringes upon the constitutional right to basic education and gambles with the futures of students
“It is not a simple administrative adjustment, it is a deliberate barrier that unfairly targets poor and working-class families already struggling the most
“By removing the critical lifeline of provisional registration, the UFS is effectively shutting the doors of higher education to students who rely on delayed funding from institutions like NSFAS or other bursaries”
Loader expains that, under the new approach, bursary applications for the 2026 academic year will open during 2025, giving students more time to plan and secure funding
She said the UFS would provide financial advice to help students in managing their finances, applying for funding, and avoiding registration-related crises
Local teen model seizes the day
TEBOHO SETENA
A teenage model from Bloemfontein, Nadia Mqonqo, has achieved great triumph after being crowned Miss Teen Continental Africa at the international final of the 2025 Miss Teen Continental pageant in Paraguay She was crowned on 28 September – becoming the first contestant hailing from South Africa to claim this prestigious and sought-after title
This made Nadia (17), a Gr 11 learner at the Petunia High School in Heidedal, a deserving continental ambassador
She made it through the top five in the swimsuit category and the top ten overall in the international pageantry competition
This was the first time she competed internationally
Winning the crown was a surprise according to her
“Honestly, I did not anticipate winning It was my first time competing internationally, so I just wanted to enjoy the experience and do my best But I worked hard, stayed focused, and trusted God; that helped me go further than I expected,” said Nadia
She is of the YEZ Models Bloemfontein agency Nadia has fond memories of the journey to Paraguay
“It was not easy, but it was worth it
From preparing outfits and training, to traveling across the world, every step taught me something new Representing South Africa on that stage is one of the proudest and happiest moments of my life”
The young model is delighted she grabbed the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to showcase her talent in modelling and pageantry on the world stage
“It was an amazing experience I met people from different countries, learned about new cultures, and gained a lot of confidence It also taught me to stay humble and grateful, no matter where I go ”
Nadia attributes her success to the great support and motivation she receives
“My dad and a few close friends support and motivate me the most They always remind me to stay focused, believe in myself, and never give up Their encouragement means a lot and keeps me going, even when things get tough”
She got the ticket to the international
contest after winning the Miss Teen Universe South Africa Free State contest
“I got the chance to represent my province at the national level From there, I got selected to represent South Africa internationally at Miss Teen Continental in Paraguay It was such an amazing moment for me a dream come true”
Nadia’s father, Mpumelelo Latyeba, said he was overwhelmed by his daughter’s achievement internationally
“I feel so blessed and I am so happy It is only by the grace of God; I always pray for my children that God will help them to make the right choices If you look outside, teenagers are not listening to their parents anymore they do things that are not right,” said Latyeba
“I am happy because it was something she has been longing for, and she achieved her milestone Secondly, it will open doors for her wherever she goes, including Miss Universe I always tell her to remain focused, finish her school, and go to tertiary education to further her studies and grow in life”
“She went alone to Paraguay she came, she saw, and she conquered Surely God is good”
DEPARTMENT IN A GREAT BIND
TEBOHO SETENA
The DA in the Free State has called on the provincial Department of Treasury to intervene urgently into the dire financial situation the Department of Education faces
This followed the revelation that the latter department incurred more than R2,5 million in penalties due to defaulting on payments to third parties
These include defaulted payments to the South African Revenue Service (Sars), Government Employees Pension Fund (GEPF), and the Government Employees Medical Scheme (Gems)
Dulandi Leech, spokesperson for the DA on Finance in the Free State Legislature, said information received painted a dire picture
“Following an inquiry about the measures to be taken to prevent a similar situation at the end of the current financial year, the MEC for Education stated that third-party penalties would be paid depending on the cash flow, demonstrating a disregard for proper planning and the misuse of taxpayers’ money
“The R2,5 million is more than most people’s homes and could have been used to aid classrooms, teachers, and learners
“It is unacceptable that mismanagement of funds, as well as poor planning, continue to lead to such unnecessary expenses
“These large amounts of wasteful expenditure cannot be shrugged off as ‘small amounts’, ” said Leech
According to Leech, this happened due to the department being underfunded
“There has been a huge cut in education funding,” she further explained
Leech said the party welcomes intervention by the Minister of Education, Siviwe Gwarube, which include commitment to working with provincial finance departments, as well as the Treasury, to alleviate the financial pressures facing education
“The minister has already identified the problem across all provinces
“Minister Gwarube has further advocated that investment in education should be increased and that it should receive a larger portion of the national budget, while also encouraging the public and private sectors to join hands with the government and to prioritise education as the bedrock of the future of our South Africa
“Better planning needs to take place We propose that no new infrastructure projects be embarked on until all current projects have successfully been completed and handed over
“Disciplinary actions need to be taken against employees, especially teachers, who have been suspended to ensure that two salaries do not have to be paid for one teaching position,” said Leech

’n Geselligheid wat talle aangeraak het en vroue van oor Bloemfontein heen onder die indruk gebring het van die groot werk wat die Childhood Cancer Foundation (CHOC) doen, is op 24 September by Urth aangebied
’ n Mooi bedrag van R60 000, wat met die geselligheid genaamd Hats on for Hope ingesamel is, is op Maandag 6 Oktober aan Sonet van Zyl, streekbestuurder van CHOC in die Vrystaat en Kalahari, oorhandig

Volgens die departement van gesondheid en ander betrokkenes, soos die Wêreldgesondheidsorganisasie (WGO), is kinderkanker ’ n groot gesondheidsvraagstuk en een van die grootste oorsake van siekte-verwante dood onder kinders wêreldwyd Die WGO raam dat jaarliks sowat 400 000 nuwe gevalle voorkom, met om en by 1 000 van dié gevalle in Suid-Afrika
Plaaslik is leukemie die mees algemeen gediagnoseerde soort kinderkanker op die nasionale register
