Hope for baby Eliza Doctors may soon operate and remove tumour

By Godfrey Mandiwana A baby girl born with a mas­ sive and possibly life­threat­ ening tumour growing on her head will hopefully get much­needed medical help soon. She is now waiting in line for an operation to re­ move the tumour at the Piet­ ersburg Provincial Hospital.

Eliza Khoza was born on 19 May this year at the Donald Fraser hospital at Vhufuli. Her

father is Mr Solomon Khoza (32), a Mozambican citizen who found refuge at Matsika village near Thohoyandou.

Her mother is the 19-year-old Maguta Sithole, also from Mozambique.

According to the father, the baby was born with a strange growth on her head that looked like a thumb. This growth started getting bigger, which was very disconcerting. The doctors then tried to arrange for an

operation at the Mankweng Hospital in Polokwane.

“On our arrival at the Mankweng Hospital in June, we were told that the baby was too young for an operation, and we had to turn back home,” said Khoza. “The doctors told us they would attend to her on the 24th of July at the Pietersburg Provincial Hospital. Come the 24th of July, the provincial hospital took us from pillar to post, saying they were dealing with

emergencies only. They further told us that our baby’s condition was not an emergency and (they) would attend to her in the first week of September this year,” he said.

“They were merciless in their utterance. I thought they were taking advantage of us being foreigners. We returned back home with heavy shoulders and had been watching the tumour grow bigger day by day,” he said. The tumour “sat like a head on top of another head” Khoza said. “I looked at my innocent baby and thought she was going to die,” he added.

Khoza then approached a local non-profit organisation, the Limpopo Show Foundation (LSF), asking them to assist.

“The reason why I involved the LSF was to pressure the Department of Health, because the LSF can be a voice for the voiceless. I always see those people helping members of the communities who don’t have IDs and SASSA money around this area,” Khoza said.

A director of the LSF, Lytton Mabalane, said he had received a letter from the Khoza family, asking for assistance. “I didn’t hesitate to contact the Lim-

popo Department of Health.

We put pictures of the baby on social media and the public reacted in a loud voice,” he explained. This also prompted the MEC for Health, Dr Phophi Ramathuba, to dispatch an ambulance to fetch the baby girl. “We help people, regardless of race, gender or country of origin,” said Mabalane.

The spokesperson for the Limpopo Department of Health, Mr Nail Shikwambana, said the Khoza family must be patient for a while longer, because the baby was in the hands of the doctors and an operation would be conducted soonest.

He said medical tests were being conducted to determine whether they had to operate or just treat the tumour in another way.

“There were two other patients with the same condition in the queue who came before the Khoza baby. Doctors had to operate and observe the two before they could operate on the baby in question,” he explained.

Shikwambana explained that doctors would not simply admit a patient and start with surgery.

They first had to conduct a series of medical tests to check for substances released by the tumour.

“It is true that an ambulance was dispatched to ferry her to the hospital three weeks ago,” said Shikwambana, but added that they could not be pressurised by members of the public to do operations. “Health care is for everyone, regardless of their country of origin,” he said.

Singo said that residents had now threatened to withdraw their votes in the forthcoming elections if nothing was done to address their plight. “We are sick and tired of this hide-andseek game played by government officials who keep on making empty promises about finishing the water project.

Millions spent on changing names could be used for services, says DA

By Maanda Bele The Democratic Alliance (DA) in the Thu­ lamela municipality have expressed their dissatisfaction over the R2 million budgeted for renaming streets and buildings when the money could have been used for improving service delivery to the residents in the Thu­ lamela municipal area instead.

“The DA wants to see basic services delivered to our communities first. We have many important issues that need attention, including pot-

holes in town and in our locations that need to be repaired, and gravel roads in different wards that need to be maintained,” said the public representative (PR) councillor for the DA in the Thulamela Municipality, Cllr Thelma Marole.

She said the DA was also disappointed by the criteria used when naming the streets. “We are aware that the names given to those streets and infrastructure were mostly ANC cadres, while many others who fought for this freedom and democracy had been left behind. Thulamela Municipality and its residents had been in existence long before freedom,” she added.

Thulamela municipality’s spokesperson, Mr Ndwamato Tshiila, confirmed that the municipality had budgeted R2 million for the renaming of more than 50 streets and buildings in Thohoyandou, Sibasa and Mutale Town.

Names such as Tshifhiwa Muofhe, George Phadagi, Rodgers Tshivhase, Thabo John, Florence Masakona, Nngwedzeni Mulaudzi, Muvhango Samuel, Frans Rasimphi, Mutendi Mufamadi, Joyce Bongwe, Alpheus Malivha, Vuledzani Bulala, Thembi Nwendamutswu and others are among the new streets and building names.

Tshiila has, however, denied the accusation that the streets and infrastructure were named only after fallen ANC cadres. “The new street names and buildings were also named after those people who contributed to the lives of people and the community at large in different categories, such as education, business, politics, the struggle for gender equality and cultural activists.” He added that adverts and notices had been placed in advance to call on all the people of Thulamela to propose name changes for the streets and facilities, so that it may reflect the Thulamela community’s input more accurately.

before it was discussed by the council.

The interim spokesperson for TTM, Mr Livhuwani Madzuhe, said that they had no other option than to use the Thohoyandou Stadium to play their home matches. He said that they were waiting for the municipality to call them to attend a meeting to discuss the matter. “Maybe they will come up with another tariff which can suit all the teams,” he said.

Madzuhe said that TTM did not have any sponsor at the moment and the chairperson of the team must pay for all these costs.

Ronald Makhadi said that the issue was now before the council for a decision. He said that a decision would be communicated to the teams within 21 days.

TTM and Venda Football Academy are currently still using the Thohoyandou Stadium for their home matches, but Black Leopards have provisionally relocated to the old Peter Mokaba Stadium.

“Mines can be super-spreaders of Covid-19,” says MEC Ramathuba

By Kaizer Nengovhela Many residents around Mu­ sina, Blouberg, farmers and Venetia mineworkers arrived in their numbers for their Covid-19 jabs at Venetia Mine on 26 August.

MEC Dr Phophi Ramathuba, who was also present, said that the growing number of Covid-19 infections required urgent attention. “We have been working together with the mine bosses themselves, so that we can fast-track the issue of vaccinating mine workers. It will be a hybrid model that we will be using in the province, and there are certain mines that have indicated that they are ready,” she said.

Ramathuba stated that mining was an important sector that kept the economy going. “Mines, however, can be regarded as super-spreaders of Covid-19 because workers work in groups. Our approach is now being replicated by other provinces with similar settings.”

Limpopo has been hailed for taking the vaccine roll-out to the people. A ground-breaking model is being used by community leaders to ramp up the health department’s vaccine roll-out programme in rural ar-

eas and convince more people to get their jabs.

Ms Mpumi Zikalala, De Beers Group’s managing director, said many mine workers had already received their vaccines. “We aim to vaccinate all workers. On 26 August alone we vaccinated 1 000 workers and community members with the help of the Department of Health,” she said.

“The intention is really to just cover the Venetia employees and, after that, extend the

same initiative to the nearby communities. I think in the next coming weeks, the nearby communities surrounding Venetia Mine will be covered by this initiative,” she said.

Mr Johannes Thapedi, an employee at Venetia Mine who received his jab, encouraged everyone in the sector to get vaccinated. “Everyone should come and get vaccinated, so that they can work safely. I feel that it is important for everyone,” he said.

Mr Morrison Maseko, senior manager of operational readi­ ness and transition at Venetia Mine, is vaccinated by the MEC for Health in Limpopo, Dr Phophi Ramathuba, on 26 August.

Vhamusanda Vho-Sinthumule shot dead in Thembisa

By Kaizer Nengovhela

The community of Tshirolwe in Nzhelele is numb with grief over the shocking news of the death of Vhamusanda Vho-Mulatedzi Sinthumule (47). The traditional leader was allegedly shot on Tuesday, 31 August.

According to Gauteng provincial police spokesperson Col Mavela Masondo, at about 15:30 on Tuesday afternoon, Sinthumule’s white Mercedes Benz was reportedly seen parked next to the golf course at Thembisa, with two passengers inside. Another car with three to four passengers stopped next to the Mercedes Benz.

They allegedly jumped out, approached the Mercedes Benz and dragged Sinthumule out of his vehicle. During the struggle, he was shot in his lower body and died at the scene.

Community members who were in the vicinity and saw what happened apprehended one of the suspects and allegedly assaulted him. He was later handed over to the police, who arrived at the scene. The 25-year-old suspect was taken to hospital under police guard. He will be charged with murder. A search is underway for the other suspects who are still at large.

“Valentine murder” suspects appear in court again

By Silas Nduvheni The woman accused of conspiring to kill her husband on Valentine’s Day in 2019, Ntan­ ganedzeni Winnie Nemaranzhe (34), and her three co-accused appeared in the Thohoyan­ dou Magistrate’s Court again on Monday, 30 August.

The late Azwifaneli Mudau was a well-known businessman in Thohoyandou who owned an electrical company, called Rialivhuwa Electrical Engineering. On the day of the incident, Nemaranzhe had allegedly asked Mudau to go buy them two loaves of bread and bring back pocket

money for his kids. Just as he drove through the gate at his home in Makwarela Extension, outside Thohoyandou, he was shot dead. The suspects fled the scene with his Nissan 1400, which was later recovered abandoned next to the Mbaleni graveyard.

Nemaranzhe had allegedly been the one who had hired the hitmen to kill her husband.

Tshivhangwaho Mudau was arrested for robbery in the Vuwani area in December of 2020.

He allegedly admitted that he was the one who had killed Azwifaneli Mudau, with the help of his friends Tshililo Madega, Takalani Nemutandani and Mashudu Lucky Gibisela. Gibisela was

To Ronewa, participating in the exclusive Miss Teen Universe SA pageant has been a dream of hers since she was five years old.

“Growing up, I had little knowledge of what was happening in my surroundings, but with time I started to do some research, prepared and trained myself and kept the fire within me burning. It goes without saying that I am very passionate about this. I am a suitable candidate for the Miss Teen Universe South Africa pageant in that I have a passion for working with all kinds of people,” she said.

Speaking to Limpopo Mirror, Ronewa said she had worked tirelessly to ensure that she got selected. “I am very happy to compete against other young girls from other provinces. I have learnt not to limit myself, because limitations are only in our minds. If we use our imagination and work hard, the possibilities are endless. I have always believed that, if you can dream it, you can achieve it, and that’s what pushed me to work even harder,” she said.

Ronewa is eager to make her mark in the pageant world. To be a good model, she said, one must have confidence, self-love, be humble, polite, possess good body language and good communication skills. She thanked her parents for supporting and believing in her.

She said that no one should focus on modelling more than education, though. “Modelling, like anything else, and education work together. You need education first in order to fulfil your dreams. Education is very important, even while you chase your dream,” she said.

later killed, allegedly as per instruction from Nemaranzhe, because he was demanding more money after she had transferred R30 000 to Nemutandani for killing her husband. Gibisela was killed in the Levubu area, along the R524 road, next to Matopo Lakes Garden near Ha-Mutsha village.

Nemaranzhe (34), Tshivhangwaho Mudau (46), Madega (31) and Nemutandani (33) face charges of conspiracy to commit murder, with additional charges of robbery with aggravating circumstances. The case was postponed to 29 November for further police investigation. They will remain in custody.

The police are appealing to anyone who might have information that can help with the investigation or assist in apprehending the suspects to please call their nearest police station or call Crime-stop on 08600 10111. Information can also be given anonymously via the MySAPS App that can be downloaded on any smartphone.

Sinthumule’s death has been described as a big loss to the village and royal council. According to members of the community, he was a dedicated leader who ensured development.

The late chief ’s older brother, Eric Sinthumule, who is also the spokesperson for the Sinthumule Royal Council at Tshirolwe, said he had spoken to his brother at about 12:00 that day.

When he tried to call him again later, at about 17:00, his phone just kept on ringing. At around 18:00 that same day, Eric received a phone call from a community member, informing him that the chief had been found shot dead.

Eric described his late brother as a modest and compassionate man who had the desire to help his people and uplift his community.

During his reign, community councils such as the traditional council and Sanco committees fully co-operated and ensured development in the community. He died while the community council was in the process of registering a land claim. “The community had lost a great leader like no other. Sinthumule was a leader who understood the needs of his people.”

Thovhele Vho-Toni Mphephu Ramabulana expressed his condolences to the Sinthumule family and said that Vhamusanda Sinthumule had served the area with diligence. “He had contributed a great deal to shaping the local Sinthumule territorial council and was a selfless visionary and dedicated leader to the people.

He will be remembered for his hard work,” said Mphephu.

The family had not finalised the funeral arrangements at the time of our going to press as they were still awaiting the results of the post-mortem.

that, while they accepted the reply they got from the regional office, they would be even happier as soon as the dispute was finalised with the national office.

Meanwhile, ANC Vhembe Regional Secretary Advocate Anderson Mudunungu addressed the disgruntled Ward 26 ANC members via a virtual meeting and said the regional office had received their complaints and allegation regarding the attendance of bogus members on 9 August. He said that the regional office had requested the national office to furnish the regional office with a copy of the report, and that they would take the matter from there.

In a letter that was shown to the media, Advocate Mudunungu further stated that the regional office had resolved that the elected BEC on 9 August was not duly authorized to carry out the organisational work until the verification report was received from the national office, and that they could not continue with organisational work until the dispute had been finalised.

The community of Vhufuli village outside Thohoyandou have been waiting two decades now for the tarred road that was promised to them by the local government.

Many of the children who were born at the time of this hearty promise have since grown into adults and are now working and providing for their own families.

And still no tarred road.

The dirt road that these villagers use every day stretches for about five kilometres from Donald Fraser Hospital to Ha-Demana and connects to the main tarred road used by taxis. During the rainy season, buses struggle to get to the village and commuters are often left stranded. Disabled and elderly people who cannot walk the five kilometres to catch taxis at the tarred road suffer the most during these times.

As summer starts to approach, with the promise of its usual measure of rain, residents have come to the conclusion that they can no longer wait for more empty promises, and with that came the decision to take matters into their own hands and embark on a project to improve their situation by fixing the road themselves.

The residents have each contrib-

uted according to what they were able to, and at last the project is up and running. The project spokesperson, Mutendi Tshivhase, told Limpopo Mirror that they knew that as soon as the rains started, they would be suffering. “We have been waiting for far too long. When the elections come, the politicians show up here and promise us heaven and earth, but as soon as they are elected, they point to the IDP.” He said that although they had already contributed to this project from their own pockets, they still needed funds to buy cement. “We are happy that the project is getting the full support from the community, and for sure we will overcome this,” he said.

Tshivhase describes them as “a peaceful community” that does not believe in “burning tyres” for better services, and that is why they have decided to rather do things themselves, instead of resorting to violent protests.

Thulamela municipal spokesperson Nndwamato Tshiila commended the community on their initiative. “We have assisted many communities who are doing things for themselves. But as a municipality we have to budget for such initiatives if the community involves us in advance,” he said.

Thabelo ‘Schoolboy Da People’s MC’ Mavhona, who hails from Vhutuwangad­ zebu Fhasi ha Bada in the Nzhelele area, is currently the darling on Makhado FM’s airwaves.

He started his radio career at Nzhelele FM and currently hosts the Breakfast Rush show and what is known to Makhado FM’s listeners as Vhembe’s afternoon best drive show or #Yowa226, which is aired between 14:00 and 18:00.

“My love for radio is immeasurable,” he said. “I enjoy the space that the studios provide. It’s like a private space between the host and the listener, and the relationship created from one end to another.”

Besides his being a prominent radio DJ and skilled voice-over artist, Thabelo is also a vibrant master of ceremonies (MC) who has carved a name for himself in social circles. “I have over a decade’s

experience in the entertainment industry and am well positioned as an all-rounder events manager and organiser,” he said. “My love for acting as master of ceremonies, or entertainer per se, started many years ago when I got involved in debates, singing and drama competitions at primary school level. I was also an active member of the Student Christianity Movement.”

He said that he had grown up in the new South Africa, where young people of all races had been dissuaded from racism, which only seemed like a sad legacy of the old South Africa. “My secret recipe for ‘mastering’ a ceremony is that I don’t create boundaries.

I am able to accommodate a wide range of people, regardless of age, race or culture. To anyone who wants to be an MC, my advice is to always be humble and respectful, and of course it helps to be multilingual,” he said.

He added that, while the Covid-19 pandemic had

adversely affected the entertainment industry in terms of revenue and getting adequate clients, he would stop at nothing to work as a reputable entertainer.

Munyai and his father, Ceazear Mutele Munyai, who was a wellknown Sangoma in the area, were both killed by an angry mob at Ha Mutele B Village earlier this year. They were accused of being involved with the disappearance of another person. Ceazear was in fact accused of being the one who had ordered his son to do the grave diggings, yet he was never charged.

The shocking revelations that body parts from corpses were being sold came to light after a 17-yearold former girlfriend of one of the accused confided in members of the community about how she and her boyfriend had dug up graves at

night. The body parts, she alleged, were later sold to traditional healers.

As if that was not enough, the village experienced a series of people disappearing under mysterious circumstances. Some of them were found murdered in the bushes while others have not been found at all. Many of these cases have been associated with ritual murders – something that has become rife in the area.

Since 2005, at least 15 people have disappeared or died under mysterious circumstances.

The body of Phathutshedzo Netshilavulu (26) was discovered hanging from a tree in the mountainous area last year. He was reported missing on 21 August 2020, after he did not return home the previous day. His mother, Ms Netshilavulu, was very suspicious about the circumstances surrounding his death. “He was discovered ten days after he had disappeared, yet his body was not in a decomposed state,” she said. “I suspect he might have been ritually murdered and hanged (there) only a few days before he was found.”

Members of the police and residents combed the mountains and rivers in search of the 79-year-old Gerson Sikhiphathe, who went missing on 19 August, but he could not be located.

Residents are eagerly awaiting the R3,6m project to quench thirst

By Tshifhiwa Mukwevho The lack of free-running potable water in the Elim, Vleifontein and Mailaskop areas may soon be less of a problem. That is, if the Vhembe District Municipal­ ity (VDM) can progress with the Elim Vleifontein Scheme project.

Limpopo Mirror noticed a drilling machine sinking a borehole at Mailaskop village some three months ago, and at least 15 water tanks of 10 000 litres each were put up on steel stands. Upon inquiry, the spokesperson for the VDM, Mr Matodzi Ralushai, said that the project at Mailaskop was only part of a bigger water project, called the Elim Vleifontein Scheme, which aimed to create 100% access to water for all households.

“Mailaskop falls within the Elim Vleifontein Scheme,” Ralushai said. “The area is dependent on groundwater. The recent increase in population

“Water tanks will add to the existing water arrangements in our village. This means that all households will now have direct access to water.” requires additional boreholes, supply lines and storages to be build. Also, street taps to be installed.”

He stated that the project was progressing well and was now more than 50% complete.

“The project will be completed by the end of September 2021,” he said. “Once the borehole is electrified, water will be supplied.”

A look into the 2020/2021 integrated development plan of the VDM revealed that R3,6 million was budgeted to complete the Mailaskop single-borehole project. This project will ensure that the new borehole and water tanks augment the existing pipeline.

However, Ralushai could not say exactly how much of the original R3,6 million had been utilised thus far.

Nevertheless, the community at Mailaskop seems pleased to know that a borehole exists that will add to the existing one. According to Vhamusanda Vho-Khishimusi Joseph Nthabalala, at least three boreholes have been sunk in the village, but only one has been functional.

“At the moment, water only comes on from Wednesday to Sunday, and on some of those days water hardly reaches households in the upper parts of the village,” he said. “It is good news to us that a new borehole and 15 water tanks will add to the existing water arrangements in our village.

This means that all households will now have direct access to water.” Meanwhile, Ralushai was not clear on which other parts of Elim and Vleifontein will benefit from the Elim Vleifontein Scheme, and exactly when that will happen.

Fifteen new water tanks that will add to the existing water infrastructure in Mailaskop village.

Long queues of trucks waiting at Beitbridge already surfacing again

By Bernard Chiguvare

third day in [the] queue and still there is very little movement going on here,” said one of the truck drivers. He said he had arrived at the border on the Thursday (26 August).

Several truck stops can be found along the N1where drivers can park their trucks while they wait for their transit papers to be processed. Limpopo Mirror visited one of the truck stops. “We can accommodate 250 trucks at any given time, but today there are 91 trucks.

There is space here, but we do not know why the trucks are now parking on the side of the road. Some drivers inform us that they would like to park their trucks here, but that they were not able to because of the long queue,” said an employee at the truck stop.

David, another truck driver who claimed to have joined the queue on Wednesday (26 August), said he usually took about a week to get to Zambia, but under the present condi-

tions he might take another week to get there. “I have been sitting here, watching the whole thing, and it seems to me that the traffic officials at the weighbridge are the ones who are causing these delays. They let some trucks pass and others are ordered to join the queue.

There is no proper working system in place and that is what causes the long queues,” said David.

These delays are creating serious challenges for the drivers.

“For days we stand in queue.

We cannot wash and at night we fear for our lives,” they told the media.

However, according to Mr Mike Maringa, spokesperson for Limpopo Department of Transport and Community Safety, the problem is not on South Africa’s side. “The delays are caused from Zimbabwe’s side. They are unable to deal with the volumes of trucks crossing over from South Africa,” he said.

NATURE OF ACTIVITY The EIA will be conducted in accordance with the following legislation: The National Environmental Management Act,1998 (Act No. 107 of 1998) (NEMA) and associated Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Regulations (as Amended on 07 April 2017). The proposed projects entail the establishment of an Entertainment Resort (Covering approximately 3ha of land in Tshikundu) and Accommodation facilities in the form of town houses (covering approximately 1,2ha of land in Magomani). The proposed projects are located approximately 5km from Saselemani Town and 46km from Thohoyandou Town via R524 provincial Road. The projects will require an application for Basic Assessment process as it triggers activities listed on listing notice 1, activity 27 of (GNR 327) and Listing notice 3 activity 6.

The issue of truck drivers who sometimes have to wait in long queues for several days before they can finally cross the Zimbabwean border was taken up and “dealt with” last year by the Limpopo Department of Transport and Community Safety and other stakeholders, who had gone to great lengths to come up with and implement solutions to this problem.

However, this headache already seems to be re-emerging as the year moves to an end. On Saturday, 28 August, Limpopo Mirror visited Beitbridge Border Post to see what the situation was and found the queue for long-distance trucks stretching for almost seven kilometres.

No-one seemed to know what the cause of this delay might be. “This is worrying us so much. We are not really sure what’s going on. This is my

current management,” claimed Ramurembiwa.

The Concerned Group called on the Department of Rural Development and Land Reform to intervene, so that a new committee can be elected immediately, in spite of the pandemic.

Tshinane Eric Mukwevho, who had served as chairperson of the CPA since 2013, did not wish to comment as the matter is still to be heard at the Limpopo High Court’s local division in Thohoyandou.

However, to support their application for a court interdict against the Concerned Group, Mukwevho apparently stated that elections had in fact been held again in 2018, and that the same committee members had been re-elected, presumably for another five-year term.

Mukwevho was watching the Concerned Group from his car as they toyi-toyied at the gate of the farm.

By Silas Nduvheni The police in Thohoyandou are investigating a case of murder, following the un­ timely death of well-known businessman and cattle farmer, Mr Thivhulawi Elias Ndonyane (58), who was gunned down at his house on Friday evening, 27 August.

“It is alleged that the

deceased arrived at his home in his Toyota Hilux bakkie at around 21:00 on Friday night and while closing the gate of his yard, he was shot dead.

His vehicle was left idling, and nothing had been taken,” said Limpopo police spokesperson Brig Motlafela Mojapelo.

The motive for the killing is still unknown at this stage and

the suspect/s remains at large while police investigations continue.

The deceased’s son, Mr Nyelisani Ndonyane, said the family members were still in mourning and devastated over the news of his father’s murder.

The family was still preparing for the funeral at the time of our going to press.

Journalist investigating Lottery corruption threatened by gospel artist But beyond his relationship as a beneficiary of Lottery funding, he also enjoys a close relationship with the NLC. Before Covid-19, he was a regular visitor at the NLC’s Pretoria headquarters.

In May last year, he accompanied an NLC delegation that appeared before the Trade and Industry Parliamentary Portfolio Committee. During a break, he threatened GroundUp’s reporter inside Parliament, accusing him and GroundUp of being part of a campaign against the NLC. Earlier this year, Sithathu was kicked out of a virtual parliamentary committee meeting discussing the NLC, when he used the chat function in Zoom to launch a vicious attack on Dean Macpherson, the Democratic Alliance’s shadow minister for Trade and Industry.

In September 2019, he was a guest - along with NLC COO Philemon Letwaba - on an SAFM programme in which he sang the praises of the commission and spoke about GMASA and its funding.

In June last year, he also launched a defamatory attack on TV against GroundUp for publishing details of corrupt lottery grants and the organisations that received them. He accused GroundUp of “lying” and “acting like criminals”.

He has also been vocal and very aggressive in his support of the NLC, using his @ disruptor_t Twitter handle to attack GroundUp, its reporter, DTI minister Ebrahim Patel, opposition politicians, and anyone else he believes is “against” the NLC. Sithathu is also a director of the Independent Beneficiaries Forum, one of the organisations that took part in a march to the Department of Trade and Industry, calling for action to be taken to protect information being revealed about non-profits and beneficiaries that receive NLC funding.

An investigation by amaBhungane into the “ragtag, astroturf army [that] sprang up to make common cause with the NLC and its bid to keep beneficiaries secret” had this to say about Sithathu: “UCSA’s spokesperson and

“Stop telling lies about the vaccine” normal again. If you don’t want to be vaccinated, don’t lie by telling people that the vaccination belongs to the power of darkness.” What worries him most, he says, is that so many of the poor people have been misled by these myths and now are too afraid to take the vaccine. “Our president, ministers, various community leaders and prominent figures have acted wisely by taking the vaccine first. This clearly demonstrates that they are good leaders who want ordinary people to follow in their footsteps. As a community and religious leader, I had to lead by example too, so that others follow suit. Once we have all taken the vaccine, the world will again be a better place to live in.” Mathoho adds that the government’s main objective is to save lives. “Although I respect people’s views, as the vaccination is voluntary, I would recommend and encourage everyone to take their jabs as soon as possible.”

Sithathu has cycled through a variety of music industry organisations and was allegedly asked to resign by the Musicians Association of South Africa, according to a senior industry source who asked not to be named.

Tsilatsila releases Art & Entertainment Voice new two-disc album

Emlane Ivo’s new release has fans begging for more

By Tshifhiwa Mukwevho Feature “Emlane Ivo” Chaba­ ni (24) is stirring up another musical storm in the cyber sphere with his latest mix­ tape, leaving fans screaming for more.

Emlane Ivo, who grew up in Malamulele Location, is a soulful hip-hop artist. “I discovered that I was a rapper when I was in Grade 9 at Ntsako Matsakali High School in 2012,” he said.

“I used to rap for my friends and close family, and everyone cheered me on. They always told me to record my songs, so I eventually recorded my first song, I do It for my future, in 2014 at Focus Studio.”

When he got to the point where he shared the stage with seasoned artists such as Mizo Phyll, Ramzeey and Makhadzi, he knew that he had finally made it. “It was a dream come true to share a stage with those big names,” he said.

Emlane Ivo felt very honoured when Tonic OG featured him on the hit song,

Get the Rands, alongside Mike Tuney. “It’s God’s plan (for me) to work with people who have made it to the TV screen, just like Mike Tuney and Tonic OG,” he said.

“It really gave me a huge fan base, with 14k followers on Facebook.”

Emlane Ivo is a third-year Bachelor of Science student at the University of Venda, specialising in microbiology and botany.

He believes that his talent is still growing and that it will soon take him around the world. “The kind of music that I am recording and releasing these days is totally different from the first songs I released way back in the beginning of my music career,” he said. “It’s promising. I feel that my star is shining.”

Whenever Emlane Ivo feels down, he only has to put on some music to lift his spirt again. “To me, it is like therapy,” he said. “All my problems

seem to dissolve just by listening to good music.”

He has just released a mixtape, called Under Pressure, which is available from online digital stores for streaming and purchasing. Hit songs include, among others, Night Shift, Focus, The Sauce, Vana Proud, Smiling, Gimme Ears, Ain’t Loyal (ft Chezman), Shawty and If I Die Today.

By Tshifhiwa Mukwevho Voice Tsilatsila, the talented singer from Tshilamba Lukau village at Mutale, released her latest soul­inspiring dou­ ble­disc album, titled Ndiya u tenda (You Remain God), a fortnight ago.

The first disc comprises seven tracks, while the second one has eight.

Ndiya u tenda tells about the many miracles that Jesus performed and the power of the cross as depicted in the New Testament. “As for me, I still believe in the Jesus of yesterday, today and forever,” she said.

Voice Tsilatsila has just released her latest two­disc album, You Remain God. Picture supplied.

The song Ndo Fulufhela encourages people to put their hope in God all the time.

“Despite the harsh times of our lives, and despite the lack of jobs, we need to always believe in God; that He listens and answers his children,” she said.

“It’s a fact of life that we will encounter hard situations in our time here on earth, but we need to fix our eyes on God.” When Voice Tsilatsila is not busy studying the Word of God and praying, she spends her time writing songs.

Her music journey had started in 2001 when Bishop SK Netshisaulu invited her to join the worship team, BAC Worshippers, at the Bethlehem Apostolic Church. “From that day on, I have not looked back.

I started taking my singing seriously,” she said.

Her musical talent was shaped by her mentor, Mr Hani Mutele. “He’s a very humble man who has a passionate heart for individuals he gets to mentor,” she said.

“He makes sure that whoever he mentors reaches the highest level of their talent.

He had sacrificed a lot for me to be where I am today,

and I still look forward to working with him.”

During her music career so far, Voice Tsilatsila has worked with many churches and artists, such as Ndivhaleni Musetha, Tsepang Mutele, Itani Vendaboy, Takie Sikhwivhilu, Mukondi Malabi, Buhle Nkosi, Tiyani Lens Maluleke, Da real Palesa, and Tsiko Mal. She believes that music is an effective way for delivering messages and reaching out to another soul.

“A song has to have the power to touch someone’s soul and uplift or change it. If it fails to achieve that, then something is wrong,” she said.

Other songs on her album include Ri u vhidza Yehova, Jehova Elohim, Khotsi anga, In your presence, ABBA Father, Aliho linwe dzina (ft Da real Palesa), We declare (ft Tsiko Mal) and Mudzimu a fulufhedzeaho.

Voice Tsilatsila describes herself as a born-again woman of God. She is married to Mr Lufuluvhi Tsilatsila and mother of two beautiful children, Ndodzo and Vhuhone.

Her music is available in digital stores. She can be followed on Facebook and reached on Tel 072 335 6966 or 071 553 3780.

After publishing her third book, titled Before varsity and what a lecturer wants you to know about two years ago, a know, resident of Hamutsha village, Ms Ndivhuwo Tracy Singo, has resurfaced with her fourth book.

Her new book, A woman’s legacy, was released two weeks ago.

According to Tracy, the new book is dedicated to women of all ages. She said

that after reading the book, readers would realise their worth and the impact they could make on earth and other people.

The new release comprises 10 chapters.

In the first chapter, Tracy motivates women not to give up in life despite all the odds. She cites the accessing of equal opportunities and gender-based violence (GBV) as some of the challenges that today’s women face.

Another chapter that makes A woman’s legacy a must-have book for all women is titled: The power of a positive woman.

In the chapter, Tracy describes a positive woman as the one who remains calm in any argument, a woman who does not argue to win, but to learn. In the last chapter, called The woman I am, Tracy describes herself as one of the few women who had achieved almost all their dreams at a very young age.

Tracy is no ordinary motivational speaker and author but an academic. She worked at various institutions of higher learning, including the University of Venda, the University of Limpopo and the

Vaal University of Technology before she retired on medical grounds. She is living with a bullet in her head after surviving a shooting incident way back in 2008. She released her first motivational book, titled God never fails, in 2009. Her second book, Beyond limitations, was released in 2017. According to Tracy, the three books are still in demand. Tracy said that copies of the new book would be available at most bookshops countrywide in the coming weeks. Tracy can be contacted on 0727278763 or at nditracy@gmail.com.

Khathutshelo Mudogwa has another side to her Entertainment Many people know her as a sportswoman who has coached primary school netball and volleyball teams from as far afield as Cape Town, but Khathutshelo Mudogwa (27) has a surprising other side too.

Mudogwa has ventured into the music industry and is already reaping the rewards as a local Tshivenda poetry artist, performing under her stage name, Mudogwa Mukololo wa Afrika.

“People know me better as a sports lady who had worked closely with Mavu Sports Development to empower young people in our country.

Although I love sports whole-heartedly, the music bug kept on troubling me, and I could not stand the pressure anymore. So, I decided not to ignore my second calling any longer to have some peace of mind,” Mudogwa said happily.

The young musical poet, born and bred at Ha-Masia Tshikwarani outside Elim, has released her debut poetry music album, titled Zwi re khalini ya ndivho. The album enjoyed airplay on local community radio stations,

including Phalaphala FM, within the first week of its release. “This has encouraged me to take my music career seriously, because everyone knows radio stations only play good music,” she said. “I have also received countless calls from people who told me that my music is good and said that I must never look back again. This meant a lot to me, and I see a bright future ahead of me in the music industry.”

She encourages other young women not to give up on their dreams. “The most important thing is to love what you do and to plan your time effectively. Yes, I’m still involved in sports, but I have ventured into the music industry while running a small business at the same time.”

He previously worked with Vhakoma Video Productions and Alingo and the Babes as a dancer before he ventured into a solo career as comedian.

Although he says that this is not an easy road to success, he foresees a bright future for himself in the entertainment industry. “Judging from the huge demand and bookings for performances, people undoubtedly regard me as one of the best comedians to have ever emerged locally,” he smiles. “I would like to thank my fans and everyone who supports my career as a comedian. Hopefully, soon I will be counted amongst the best in South Africa.” Vho-Nyawa can be followed on Facebook (Nyawa Gogo) or contacted on 063 626 0800 (voice calls and WhatsApp).

Phalaphala FM helps to get more people vaccinated Phalaphala FM was among the radio stations that did on-air coverage of the vaccination drive held in Polokwane on Tuesday, 24 August. The drive was held to strengthen and complement the Premier’s Office and the Limpopo Department of Health’s efforts in encouraging Limpopo residents to vaccinate and address the issue of vaccine hesitancy among the 18+ population.

The vaccination drive was led by Limpopo Premier Stanley Mathabatha. Addressing people between the ages of 18 and 34, Mathabatha made a serious call on the youth to vaccinate.

“Scientists are warning that the fourth wave is coming and might take up to 75 days. If you don’t like a clampdown on this beverage, please do vaccinate,” Mathabatha said.

He added that the Limpopo government had set a target of vaccinating three million people before the fourth wave hits. The province is home to an estimated 5.8 million people, of whom most are living in rural areas where traditional beliefs remain embedded. “We urge all of you to be part of this critical measure in the fight against the pandemic. We reiterate that, as the provincial government, we will ensure that we participate equally with you in all vaccine processes. Do not be misled by conspiracies.”

Sydney Ramakuwela, a well-known actor who plays the role of Mulalo Mukwevho on SABC 2’s soapie, Muvhango, also attended the vaccination drive and said, “You can see our government is trying here. Let’s help our government, and let’s come in our numbers.

We are the future; let’s do this, let’s vaccinate!”

Ramakuwela encouraged the crowd.

Limpopo Province is among the leading provinces to have administered more than a million doses of the Pfizer and Johnson & Johnsons vaccines against Covid-19. The opening of vaccinations for everyone 18 years and older has provided the province with the opportunity to ensure that it continues its vaccination pace and reach the wider population.

Women encouraged to stand up and make a difference “Remember the bravery of the 20 000 women The closing of Women’s Month who marched to the was celebrated during an event held at the Musina Show Grounds Union Buildings in 1956.”

Women’s Month

Musina Mayor Mihloti Muhlope addresses women during the Women’s Month closing ceremony at Musina Show Grounds.

last Saturday.

“As Musina Municipality, we are very proud of women who are making a difference in all our 12 wards,” said Musina Mayor Mihloti Muhlope during the event.

“We encourage our local women to stand up and do something to improve their lives. This can range from starting small businesses to more advanced entrepreneurship.

Though your initiative might look small, it will make a huge difference in the economic growth of our municipality.”

The event, which was organised to reflect on progress made, call for change and celebrate acts of courage and determination by ordinary women who have played an extraordinary role in society, was conducted under strict Covid-19 regulations and broadcast on social media to reach as many community members as possible.

Muhlope thanked the current government for making equal opportunities available for everyone, regardless of gender. “Today, we are

leaders in our own right because Government believes that men and women are equal. Government has also noted that the progress of women is progress for all of us.

Besides it being a matter of rights, giving more opportunities to women is also a manifestation of good economic sense. Hence, we should always remember the bravery of the 20 000 women who marched to the Union Buildings in 1956 to demand an end to pass laws. They did so courageously to lay a foundation of the freedom that we are enjoying today.” Muhlope applauded all women who are in the forefront of the war against Covid-19, while she also encouraged all community members to add their voices against

women and child abuse, including gender-based violence. “Despite the challenges caused by the coronavirus, women have always been there as health care workers, caregivers and effective leaders in combating the pandemic. The crisis has highlighted women’s contributions to saving lives,” she said. “Let us report any suspicious acts to our law-enforcement agencies or community leaders around us. Women are a precious gift from God, and they should be treated with care, love and affection.” Dr Julia Petla and Mukondi Mafune spoke on behalf of women in business, while Tshiambaro Matshivha represented women in the entertainment industry.

Vukona helps maintain girls’ dignity

By Tshifhiwa Mukwevho “If young people do not get up and do some­ thing from which their fellow youths will benefit, no one else will.”

Nineteen-year-old Vukona Promise Maluleke, who heads up the Vukona Pads Drive Campaign, said that all stakeholders should step up and assist whichever way they could to support this philanthropic cause that the youth had taken upon themselves.

“Many young people and adults alike complain that not enough is being done to support youths in rural areas, but that’s not the case,” Vukona said. “Young people need to start involving themselves in projects that empower [their] fellow youths. Just sitting in the corner and complaining is not going to solve matters; it will only worsen the situation. Even supporters need to see how serious and determined we are when we ask for help.”

Vukona, a Grade 11 pupil at Hanyani Nkuzana High School and a resident of Nkuzana village along the R578 road, brought her campaign to her own school recently, where she interacted with fellow youths and donated sanitary towels to girls. As a young woman with a deeply religious background, Vukona also delivered a speech based on Isaiah 60:22, teaching people the importance of patience.

“Many young people find themselves trapped in bad situations that are the direct results of impatience. They take shortcuts that lead to more problems that are hard to solve,” she said.

About her strong character and the ability to carry out her projects successfully, she gives her mother the credit for instilling the good values Vukona treasures today.

In particular to my peers,” she said. “Vukona Pads Drive Campaign, which is mainly a youth foundation, is the result of the love within me.”

Vukona decided to start donating sanitary towels earlier this year. Apart from running Vukona Pads Drive Campaign, this young woman is also a published author of a collection of poems, Nyenya Yo Vindzuka.

Tshiozwi’s Dynamos get it right against Gogobole Bucs

By Kaizer Nengovhela

Two of Louis Trichardt High School’s star rugby players, Junior Bessong (who plays for the high school but is in Ridgeway College) and Larry Ramabulana, have been chosen for two of the top school rugby teams in South Africa. Junior (left) has been selected for the u/16 A Grant Khomo team, while Larry (right) was selected for the Noordvaal u/16 B-team. Photos supplied.

Stars’ centre forward, Clement Mabaso, was booked for retaliating after he was badly tackled. The half-time score was 1-all. Early in the second

half, Rudzani Musenwa of Stars hooked in a loose ball after receiving a square pass from Sherif Ramabulana.

Mates came back strongly and continued to mount pressure on the defence of Stars. They scored the equalizer in the 84th minute, after a defender of Stars failed to clear the ball.

Ravele All Stars proceed­ ed to the next stage of the SDZMBDM tournament when they beat Tshiozwi Mates 6-5 via a penalty shootout at the Tshiozwi Grounds on Sunday.

The two teams played to 2-all draw before the match had to be decided by penalty shootout. Stars refused to recognize Mates as their superiors. They created numerous moves from behind, with their midfielders dishing out some telling passes to their goal poachers. Although Muhangwi Mukosi of Mates was warned with a card for obstruction six minutes into the game, he did not lose his fighting spirit. He continued to be a thorn in the flesh of the defenders of Stars. Stars opened their account in the 24th minute. Fhulufhelo Ngwana gave the ball the final touch after a scramble within the box.

in favour of Bucs.

Dynamos introduced Sikhwari Mufamadi, and this move changed the course of the match as he distributed dangerous balls to his front-

runners. Bucs’ star, Ernest Tseisi, handled the ball 20 metres away from the goal line.

Domenic Mafuleni of Dynamos scored the equaliser to make the full-time score line 1-1.

Tshiozwi Dynamos beat Gogobole Bucs 7-6 in a SDZMBDM tournament clash on Sunday at the Tsh­ iozwi Grounds. The two teams played to a 1-all draw before going to a penalty shoot-out.

Last week, Dynamos were beaten by Tshiozwi Mates in the semi-final of the Chamala tournament.

The absence of Dynamo’s playmaker, Nyathi Muvhango, was evident from the onset as no one was there to win and distribute balls from the middle of the park.

Bucs’ front-runners, Takalani Bakali and Edgar Mailula, did not live up to the fans’ expectations and were tightly marked.

The ball missed the target by inches, much to the disappointment of the team’s fans. Bucs broke the deadlock in the 28th minute. The veteran player, Evans Sithagu, won the ball just behind the centre line and ran towards the right corner, from where he dished up a square pass to Takalani Bakali, who beat the Dynamos keeper, Mashudu “Makumba” Munengiwa with a ground cutter.

Dynamos knocked on their opponents’ door three minutes later. Dominic Mafuleni tried his luck from Takalani Maruli of Dynamos with the ball, with Ernest Tseisi running the edge of the box. for cover: Photo: Kaizer Nengovhela.

Feast of goals as Ravies FC crush Maniini Real Madrid

By Frank Mavhungu A feast of goals could be seen when Ravies FC beat Maniini Real Madrid FC 4­3 in their Thulamela Local Football Association League match at the Maniini Block L Grounds on Saturday.

minutes of the game. The visitors took advantage of the situation and opened their account seven minutes into the game. Their lethal striker, Brian Mahwai, went loose from the 20-metre area and beat the keeper with a half volley.

The goal seemed to be a wakeup call to the home side. They responded by scoring two goals within a short space of time. Lufuno Muedi scored the first in the 14th minute, following a scramble within the box. The second goal was registered in Khangwelo Maivha’s name. He capitalised on a clearing error and blasted in a rocket from inside the box.

Ravies took the game to the home side towards the end of the first half. They were awarded two penalties in the last five minutes of the first stanza. Zwivhuya Tshisaphungo was brought down within the box, which was a clear penalty. Fhulufhelo Mukwevho made no mistake from the white spot. Brian Mahwai was also brought down a little later, prompting the referee to award another penalty. Fhulufhelo Mukwevho completed his brace to bring the half-time score to 3-2.

Zwivhuya Tshisaphungo of Ravies caused an upset three minutes into the last half. He missed a sitter, following a square pass from Brian Mahwai.

Real Madrid replaced their keeper, Wanga Tshikhudo, after he sustained an injury to the knee. Ravies scored the fourth through a substitute, Unarine Matamela, in the 78th minute.

Realising that victory was almost certain, Ravies relaxed after scoring their fourth goal. That gave the home side an opportunity to reduce the margin via Karabo Dzivhani in the dying minutes of the game.

Two victories for Black Mambas but they again managed to score seven goals.

Their centre forward, Phindulo Ravuku, was the first player to disappoint. He received a beautiful pass from Rendani Mokodi within the penalty box and unleashed a volley. The ball went far wide, much to the fans’ disappointment.

had his chance moments thereafter. Instead of relaxing on the ball and trying other possible ways, Nesengani shot wide and suffered the pain of watching the ball missing the target by inches.

The home side took control of the game in the last 15 minutes of the first half. They opened their account via Talifhani Masiavhula. The Stars’ keeper, Raymond Mbulaheni, mishandled the ball in the 39th minute and Masiavhula, who was watching closely, capitalised on the error and blasted in a rocket. Black Mambas replaced Aifheli Thovhogi with Hulisani Makhado just before the referee blew the half-time whistle.

Black Mambas approached the last half with more self-confidence. They increased the margin in the 59th minute. Talifhani Masiavhula completed his brace with a long-range half volley. The keeper of Black Mambas, Avhashoni Ravele, made his presence felt soon afterwards.

All Stars were awarded a penalty after a defender of Mambas handled within the box.

Thompho Rakhuda tried his luck from the white spot.

Ravele braved the shot and palmed the ball away for a corner kick. As if that was not enough to impress the fans, Ravele was a hero again two minutes later.

This after Hulisani Netshiongolwe went loose and unleashed a ground cutter from inside the box. Ravele stretched to the limit to execute a brilliant save.

Can Sealene Ladies stop Lacoste Morning Stars?

By Frank Mavhungu The struggle for promotion and to escape the relegation axe at the end of the season will continue among the teams affiliated to the Limpopo Stream of the Sasol Women’s League this weekend. The question that remains unanswered is whether Sealene Ladies FC will have enough strength to stop Lacoste Morning Stars when they meet at the Shayandima School Grounds on Sunday afternoon.

The spirit is high in the Morning Stars’ camp, following their 5-1 victory over Real Mighty Ladies at the Xikukwani Stadium outside Giyani last Saturday.

Morning Stars are shining on top of the log standings after the victory. The Stars will pin their hopes on Fhulufhelo Munzhedzi, Omphulusa Ratshihule and Amanda Pinana for goals.

Morning Stars beat Sealene Ladies 5-3 in their first-round league match at the Lulekani Stadium outside Phalaborwa about three months ago. On the other hand, Sealene Ladies are in top form of late.

“We have what it takes to win”

After completing two league games, the head coach of Black Leopards, Mr Morgan Shivambu, is confident that his team has what it takes to become the champions at the end of the season.

Shivambu said that four of his key players had not been available in their first two games. Sanene Mathenjwa, Selby Rapatsa, Wiseman Maluleke and Leso Mahlatsi had tested positive for Covid-19 and could not be included in the team. The coach said that the four players had joined their teammates at the training session on Monday.

According to Shivambu, the absence of the four players had limited the team as they were all attacking midfielders.

He said that they had only had two midfielders, Mumuni Abubakar and Lethabo Mathaba, on their substitution list in their last two games. He was satisfied with the team’s results in the two matches, when taking into account the fact that they did not have enough depth.

Looking ahead, Shivambu said that one of their killer strikers, Daniel Gozar, would be available for the next clash.

Gozar was not available in their game

against Polokwane City and Uthongathi FC, for reasons relating to his work permit.

Lidoda duvha played to a 1-1 draw with Polokwane City at the Old Peter Mokaba Stadium in Polokwane in their opening fixture. They played to another 1-1 draw with Uthongathi FC at the Princess Magogo Stadium in Durban last Sunday.

Shivambu said that what he had observed in their first two games was that the team had displayed high-grade football and only lacked at the goal finish. They will be working on the strikers’ target shooting in the 12 days that the league programme will be on hold because of the FIFA break. Shivambu said that they would play a number of friendly matches in the coming days as part of their preparations for their next league fixture. Black Leopards will host TS Sporting FC next Saturday (September 11) in their next league fixture.

Shivambu’s counterpart from the Tshakhuma Tsha Madzivhandila (TTM) camp, Mr Phuthi Mohafe, stated that what he had observed in the team’s first two games was that the players were not fit, both physically and mentally.
