Terwyl dieowerhedeniks doen om dieuitdaging van hawelosesinBloemfontein se strateaan te spreeknie, beland al hoemeermenseop straat.
Dikwels word optredeop versoekvan onder meer woonbuurtverenigings en ander forums deur die Mangaung-metro se wetstoepassingsafdeling onderneem om mensewat hulle in parkeofwoonbuurte tuismaakteverwyder.Dit is in ’n pogingomveiligheid te bevorder en omgewingsbesoedelingtebeperk.
Dit los glad nie die probleem op nie,omdat dié menseeenvoudignaander gebiede skuif
Corize vanRensburg, wyksraadslid in die metro, het Maandag 30 Maartindie Mangaung-metrosespesiale raadsvergaderingaangekondigdat die DA ’n mosie gaan indien waarop gevraword dat’nomvattende beleid en wetgewingopgestelwordom haweloosheid in die stad aan te spreek “Duisende kwesbare individue word gedwingomopstraat te leef,dikwels in onveilige en onwaardige toestande soos onderbrûe, in stormwaterstelsels en in openbareruimtes. Hierdie werklikheid ondermynnie net hulgrondwetlike regteopwaardigheid, veiligheid en voldoende behuising nie,maarraakook die breër gemeenskap.”
VanRensburg sê die metro het geen formele beleid om haweloosheid aantespreek nie.Die gebrek aankoördineringenbeplanninghet nie-re-
gerings- en geloofsgebaseerde organisasiesendie private sektor gelaat om die lasmet beperkte ondersteuningtedra.
Die DA se mosievra dat ’n benadering watdie hele gemeenskapinsluit– plaaslike regering,provinsiale en nasionaledepartemente, asook burgerlikeorganisasies –saamstaanomvolhoubare, praktiese oplossingsteimplementeer.
Ds.DelaHarpeleRouxvan Toringsvan Hoop sê daar is geen ware skuilings inBloemfontein nie
“Welsynsorganisasiessoos Anchor of Hope doen reuse-werkom mensetehelp Dit sluit Anchor se mansskuilingwat ook’nwerkskeppingsprojekisin, asookBloemshelterwat ’n hawe vir vroueen kinders bied,maarhierdie plekke vervul ’n baie spesifieke rol.
Danisdaarook talle huise watbejaardes watSassa-toelae ontvang, huisves, maardaaris ’n baie grootbehoefte.”
Hy sê tydens die Covid-pandemie is tydelike skuilings vir hawelosesopgerig,
maar uit daardieoefeninghet dit duidelik geblyk datpolitieke wilen’nbegrotingtekortskiet, sowelasgoeie bestuur om sulke skuilings totstand te bring en volhoubaartebedryf.
Hy sê daar is ookgeen betroubare data oorhoeveel menseindie metrohaweloos is nie
“Bydie Toringssesopkombuis is daar ooktalle stukwerkerswat virdae op ’n slag in die stad blyopsoeknawerk.”
Vandie voorstelle watVan Rensburg in die mosiehet, sluit in die vestigingvan veilige ruimtesenskuilings insluitend die gebruik vanongebruikte munisipale geboue; die verbetering vankoördineringmet die departemente maatskaplikeontwikkeling, binnelandsesakeendie polisie; die opstel van’nsentraledatabasis vanbeskikbareskuilings en dienste;die uitbreidingvan toegangtot gesondheidsorg, dokumentasie,maatskaplike ondersteuningenrehabilitasieprogramme; asookinwerkingstellingvan voorkomingsprogramme virjongmense.

Convicted fraudsterNthapelengDavid Serame hasbegun servinghis seven-yearprisonsentence for 406 counts emanatingfromacriminal enterprisetodefraudthe Mangaung MetroMunicipality (MMM) of aboutR9,6 million through fraudulentprocurement.
Thestate successfully appealed his suspended sentence,with judgmentfor adirectprison sentence handed down on Friday 20 March.
In October2024, theFreeState High Court wasgranted leavetoappealthe Bloemfontein RegionalCourt’s seven-yearprisonsentence, suspendedfor five yearsonconditionthat he not be convicted of fraudortheftduringthe period of suspension. TheState notedthe severity of the crimes andthatSerame’s personal circumstances should “recedetothe background” in favour of communityjustice
TheState argued the sentence imposedin 2022 wasshockinglylenientgiven the scaleof the corruptionand fraud. An additionalaspect contributingtothe leniencywas the State's withdrawal of criminal casesagainst three municipal officials found to have colluded with Serame.Criminal casesagainstthe officialswere withdrawnapparentlyfor lack of evidence
Thesentence wasbased on Serame’s guilty plea, whichthe RegionalCourt accepted.He
wasfurther sentencedto36months of correctional supervision Thecaseagainst Serame and his five entities involved aR11,6 million scheme to defraudthe municipalityand the South AfricanRevenue Service (Sars),whichsuffered prejudicedamounts of almostR2,3 million and R628 095.38 in income tax Theinvolved companies were IcebergTrading, SnowlineTrading, Ka Rona Trading, SeventhAvenueTrading, and SenthatiTrading, and benefitedbyabout R9.6 millionthrough fraudulentprocurementfrom the municipality.
In the High Court, it emergedthatSerame violatedthe plea bargain by failingtopay SARS amounts of almostR2.3 million and R628 095,38 in prejudicedincome tax.Itwas revealed that only R12 000 waspaid in twopayments of R6 000 on 30 June 2021 and 12 January2022, rendering the plea null and void.
Serame wasconvicted and sentencedfor fraud, corruption, moneylaundering,and tax evasion The findingsrevealednogoods or services were delivered and the five entities continuedtoreceivepaymentfromthe municipality, although theyweredormant.

Kotzesaysthe commission found that the metrohas violated residents’
constitutional rights followingcontinuedand unacceptablefailures in basic servicedelivery. Themetrowas then orderedbythe SHRCtodeliver an action plan within three months that must be submittedtocouncil.

Volgens MarieLombard,sjef en mede-eienaarvan De Oude Kraal, het die eerste WildsKosfees baie eenvoudigbegin.
“Ons het gesitendink hoe ons in die koue Vrystaat bedrywigerkan maakhier op De Oude Kraal,”vertelsy.
“Die eerste keer het ons’n springbokopdie spit gehad
watekmet netvet toegedraai het.”
Sy lagwanneersyterugdink aan’noom watnahaartoe gestap hetmet ’n bekommerde vraag.
“Hyhet gesê:‘Maar jullebemark danwildsvleis, hoekom spit julle ’n skaap?’ Ek moes verduidelik:‘Neeoom,dit ís ’n springbok-die netvethet net so mooi oordie vleis gesmelt datdit soos skaaplyk.’ ” Daardie oomblik hetook ’n belangrike beginsel bevestig: diegeheimvan goeie wildsvleis is vet.
“Wildsvleis is ongelooflik organies en gesond, maar dit is baie maer.Daaromwerk ons met vet, marinadesen kreatiewekombinasies om die vleissevolle geur na vore te bring.”
Op vanjaarseWildsKosfees staanDeOude Kraalse personeel weer gereed om ongeveer 2000 menseteontvang. Die omvangvan die voorbereidingisindrukwekkend.

Dié wors is heerlik sappig en die koedoe-sosaties in spek toegedraai, is iets watgaste op die fees beslis kanuitsien Sy beplan vir die springbok onder meer ’n ontbeende boud met olywegevul. Al die vleis word verwerk en reseptewordnoukeurig neergeskryf. Sy sê by elke spesie-stalletjie is daar ’n koue slaai en ’n warm geregwat die geurevan die vleis aanvul.

Government reimagined
PROF.JOSEPH SEKHAMPU
South Africa mayneed to beginadeliberate consolidation processbyreconfiguring local governmentintofewer,moreviable regional authorities. This is to aligngovernancewith actual economic corridors rather than inherited administrativeboundaries.South Africa clings to 257 municipalities as if thenumber itself is proofofdemocratic reach.
This is not an argumentfor bypassing constitutional protections or weakening local accountability, butrather serves aconstitutional purposerequiringinstitutionalredesign rather than institutional preservation. Larger municipalities aremorelikelytosupportcareer pathways for engineersand planners,integrate spatialdevelopmentmorecoherently, and make oversightmorefeasible for provincialand national authorities
Thequestion, however, is not whetherscale is ideal, butwhether thecurrent configuration remains viable in the absence ofasustaining economic base
In this light, the case for consolidation is less abetrayal of localdemocracythanadefence of it.Insistingthat everymunicipalitymustsurvive canbecome profoundlyanti-democratic when theseinstitutions cannot keep waterclean, roads drivable,orstreetlights working.
Municipalities that aretoo administratively thin cannot discipline leaders, attractskilled professionals,ormaintainbasic services The structureprotects political office butabandons public service
Some will read this as atechnocratic narrowingofdemocratic space.Yet the moredifficult question is whether representation withoutcapabilitystill constitutes meaningful democratic participation or whether it gradually erodes trust in democratic institutionsthemselves
TheConstitution protects effective, accountable,and development-orientedgovernance, notthe preservation of institutionalforms that cannolongerachieve thoseends.Ifthe current structureblocksthe achievement of constitutional purpose, then fidelitytothe Constitution mayrequireredesigningits architecture.
