Working togethercan make us betterChange is difficult. Most people don’twant to change. No, they do.But when they get it, they don’twant it.Are you with me? Broadly speaking

we hated apartheid, and we changed itfor democracy.So we had it. What does democracymean? I wish that could be an essay.I don’t know whether kids at schoolstill write essays. There are lots ofchanges these days. Maybe they don’t.But if they do, it would be interest-ing to see what they could say aboutthat. Maybe they could say a lot.Maybe they could say nothing.Does democracy mean anger? Does itmean mayhem?Why do I choose anger and mayhem?You know why. It has been going ontoo long. It has spilled over to kids.Kids destroyed a principal office.Politicians burnt schools. I thoughtthey were there to protect schools.You see what I mean? Things thatused to be done in 1976 are things thatare still done in 2016. I thought thingswould be different. I thought peoplewould be smart. They’d know how totackle things.Maybe I’m wrong. Maybe I’m naïve.I think good of people. I think theyadapt. They do what’s done today.They don’t cling on to the past andsay, “This is how things used to bedone. We can’t change them.”This is me. This is how I think. Idon’t say kids should not respectadults. This is what we should cling

on to. But we should respect kids too.I’m talking about anger. I’m talkingabout mayhem.I’m talking about the burning ofschools. Why burn schools? What doyou want to achieve? Do you want tomaintain the past? If you do, whydon’t you do it though negotiations?Why don’t you talk? What happenedto talking? As I say, maybe I naïve.I am naïve indeed. I love progress. Idon’t see us going to the past.The past is in danger of beingovertaken by the present.Do you get my drift? It is the samewith you. I remember when I used tomeet friends that I hadn’t seen for along time. The first thing I used to saywas, “I haven’t changed!”Oh my God, was I showing myignorance? I was indeed. I did notwant to change. I clanged to the past.This was I thinking change is wrong.Change is not wrong. It is the rightthing to happen.We all have to change, for the better.We all have to work to be better thanbefore. Anyone who doesn’t want tochange, I don’t know what to say.Maybe you can tell me what to say.I’m lost for words. Stay positive.

Philippi Music Project founders Sbusiso Nyamakazi and Baptiste Guillemet are fund-raising tobuild a studio to house local artist.

Philippi artists oncourse for a studioMANDLA MAHASHE

Sbusiso Nyamakazi and Baptiste Guil-lemet, are the founders of the PhilippiMusic project which was established

in 2014 as a social upliftment project.Theduo is nowplanning to erect the area’sfirst multi-purpose studio to accommodateartists, musicians and creative social com-mentators.That is, if they get theirway. They are cur-rently running a fund-raising campaignthrough a crowd funding in an online fund-raising platform called Indiegogo.“(We hope) The financial backing we aimto receive through Indiegogo will enable usto build a professional and soundproof re-cording studio in a shipping container thatwe already have in Philippi.The Philippi Music Project is campaign-ing to raise up to R250 000 to finance theproject (at R160 000) and to invest in profes-sional studio gear (at R90 000),” said Nyama-kazi.Nyamakazi is a writer, MC, musician, ac-tivist and founder of Inyanda Youth Net-work while his partner Guillemet is aFrench entrepreneur, music producer andbusiness graduate.“The PMP is a music incubator for artists

in Philippi and surrounding areas but hasits origins as a music contest. However, werealised that a music contest was not mak-ing a major difference in the lives of the art-ists and therefore we needed a different ap-proach.We were stuck by the energy and the crea-tivity of young artists in the townships, butdismayed by the non-existence of structureto record and promote it,” said Nyamakazi.They then decided to set it up as a platformwhere local artist will work together in vari-ous ways such as selling music online andrecordings as well as workshops.“In this way we can then build a bridgebetween the wealthy people of the city andthe local artists that need some kind of sup-port,” said Nyamakazi.According to the partners , the project hasalso received support from the SAB Founda-tion, the Bertha Centre for Social Innova-tion, and has partnered with organizationssuch as Playing for Change, SAE Institute,Inyanda Youth Network and Britecap.For those that want to support the initia-tive they can visit www.indiegogo.com/pro-jects/phillipi -music-project.Interestedparties canalso contactNyama-kazi on 081 734 0225 or email: [email protected].

MADOLO PHEZULU: Deputy Minister of Rural Development and Land Reform McebisiSkwatsha takes it all in his stride running with the funeral procession of the late VictorTshongoyi, who served in the Presidential VIP unit, in Nyanga East on Saturday.

Ex­offenders offered jobs by CityTheCity of CapeTownhas teamedupwiththe department of correctional services ina bid to create jobs for prisoners on parole.In December, 10 parolees were givenshort-term cleaning jobs as part of thecity’s expanded public works programme.In the latest drive, 50 people on parolewere employed in March and will workuntil the end of June.A total of R567 833 has been allocated tothe project.The participants perform cleaning du-ties at police stations, schools, old-agehomes and non-governmental organisa-tions.Theyworkunder the supervision of cor-

rectional services staff, and are requiredto attend a rehabilitation and reintegra-tion programme with a social worker.Councillor Suzette Little, the mayoralcommittee member for social and earlychildhood development, said: “It is hard toturn over a new leaf when you leave pris-on. “All too often, you return to the verycircumstances that led you there in thefirst place.“We’re trying to break that cycle by pro-viding opportunities that will change thelives of former prisoners.”The programmeaims to help parolees todevelop a work ethic, social skills and toadapt to society.

It seeks to be a stepping stone for findingemployment, achieving financial inde-pendence and building confidence.The councillor said the programme isintended to keep former prisoners of thestreet.“This initiative is crucial to our effortsto prevent people from living on thestreets. “Even though parolees have paidtheir debt to society, many of them strug-gle to reclaim their place. This is becauseof the attitude society has towards peoplewith a criminal record and some of themend up on the street.“We’re hoping this initiative will re-duce that risk.”

Search for Nyangaman after murderMONIQUE DUVAL

Milnerton police are searching for aNyanga man who they believe may beable to provide information on the brutalmurder of a Montague Gardens busi-nessman.

Last week, the family of NishendranMoodley (35), owner of Nautica Marineand Industrial supplies, revealed thebloody scene in a plea to help find the on-ly employee of Moodley. Brother MarkMudley explains while they are not bio-logical brothers, he was taken in by theMoodley family in Durban many yearsago and together with Moodley theymoved to Edgemead several years agoand ran businesses in Montague Gar-dens.

He says on Wednesday 6 April he gota call fromhismother inDurban indicat-ing she could not get hold of Nishendran.

Mark says he regularly spoke with hisbrother during the day and tried to callhim. “His phone was never off and he al-ways answered his phone – especiallywhen our mother called.”His brother says he knew something

waswrongand calledNishendran’swife,who said she had last spoken to him at17:15 that day. “I went home, had supperand continued to call him, but his phonewas off. I visited his home and got thespare access remote from his wife andwent to the factory.”Mark made his way to the workshop

in Station Road and says nothing couldprepare him for what he experiencednext. Nishendran’s bakkie was parkedoutside and Mark says the entire work-shop was dark. The door was closed, butnot locked. Using the torch on his phone,Mark tried to find his way in the darkand stumbled across a pool of blood.

He searched for the light switch andsays once he switched on the lights, hefound his brother’s cap and sandals near

a second vehicle.Mark then saw blood all across the fac-

tory and says he started to panic, and ashe turned a corner his worse fears wereconfirmed.There he found his brother lying face

down with a wound to his head.“Thewhole placewas full of blood. The

materials he uses which were stackedagainst the wall were covered in bloodspatter. He had been bludgeoned todeath,” saysMark as he struggles to holdback the tears. Police were called to thescene. Marks says what makes the caseso sinister was his brother was pedanticabout security. “He had several camerasand you couldn’t get in there without be-ing picked up by a camera. When the po-lice went through the factory they foundall the cameras had been ripped out andthe hard drive containing the footagewas taken. Now who would know wherethat hard drive even was,” he questions.According to the records Nishendran

only had one employee – a Malawianman named Promise John. Since the in-cident he has not returned to work andthe family have now issued a R5000 re-ward for his location as they believe hemay have information about what hap-pened to Nishendran.According to Milnerton police spokes-

personWarrant Officer Daphne O’Reillythe results of the postmortemare not yetavailable yet, but she confirms amurderdocket has been opened.

She says police believe the employeemay have information on what occurredand visited his home inNyanga but havebeenunable to trace him. If youhave anyinformation on the location of the em-ployee call the investigating officer on082 417 4318. The family has also offereda reward of R5000 for anyone who canprovide informationwhich leads to themfinding the employee. You can call thefamily on 076 868 7721.

Activist assaulted during marchSTAFF REPORTER

Abemi Grassroots Movement leaderMncedisi Twalo was roughed up lastWednesday as the march he was lead-

ing fell into disarray after being assaulted,allegedly by friends of deputy minister ofRuralDevelopmentandLandReformMcebi-si Skwatsha.

According to Twalo, the assault took placeas they marched to the house to plead withSkwatsha to allow for the funeral of one ofthe late previous owners of the house to beheld there.The house, in NY131 number 24 in Gu-

gulethu, used to belong toMakhayaandMat-ilda Tsotsobe and their children until theydefaulted on bond payments and it was soldby the bank.

Skwatsha bought the house from the bankin 2011. Matilda,69, who was divorced fromher husband, passed away about two Satur-

days ago and was buried last Sunday.According to Twalo, his organisation had

written a request a to Skwatsha asking forthe customary night vigils and subsequentfuneral to be held at the house.Skwatsha said, after consultations with

his family and the street committee, it wasdecided to reject the request, based on theritualistic demands that this would require.“We are not related to the Tsotsobes, and

this would have put a heavy burden on usin terms of our customs,” said Skwatsha.Abemi then decided to lead a march to the

house.But on arrival they were met by throngs

of people, including neighbours and otherssaid to be friends of Skwatsha. Argumentsand counter arguments ensued, which ulti-mately led to chaos.Then Twalo was allegedly assaulted.Nokwanda Tsotsobe, a grand-daughter,

said they had approached Abemi to seek in-tervention on their behalf asthey did not have a placefrom where they could holdthe vigil and bury theirgrand-mother.

“We came in peace(on theday of the march). We want-ed negotiations as Africans.We wanted to urge MrSkwatsha to have mercy onus and allow us to bury ourgrandmother where sheraised,” she said.

Nokwanda also said:“Ndicela uxolo if lento siyen-zayo ivakele rongo.”

Twalo was adamant thatthey “had marched to theSkwatsha house to mediatebetween him and the Tsotso-be family.”

He added that the Tsotso-

beshad lived in thehouse for over40 years and that they had previ-ously buried two of their late sonsthere.

“So there is a sentimental at-tachment to that family when itcomes to that house. Most of thechildren and grand-childrenwere born there,” he alluded.

The Tsotsobe family has lost arelative. They are homeless, hesaid.

“Instead we were met with theruthless brutality of the worst or-der,”

However, Skwatsha revealedthat this was not the first timethat Twalo had led a march to hishouse.

“They had marched on previ-ous occasions, andwere informedthat I was the rightful owner ofthe property. Documents wereshown to prove this. But thingsreached boiling point on April27,” he said.

Skwatsha said this time Twaloarrived with his followers andgave him “instructions for theprogramme of the late Matilda”

“Naturally, this was refused.How does one allow a burial of anon-relative to take place at one’sproperty.”

A resident who lives down thestreet said: “It is uncalled for Abemi to ex-pect Skwatsha to hand over the keys as if thehouse is theirs, irrespective of what hap-pened. The fact of the matter is that thehouse was repossessed and sold to anotherclient, that means it is not your house,”.

“What happened here today is regrettablebut it can be attributed to poor leadershipand vision from Abemi.” he said, on condi-

tion of anonymity.However, Thuthula Nqila said the brutali-

ty meted by the Skwatsha’s friends was hor-rific.“To drag a fellow African like a dog and

kick and stamp on him as if he had commit-ted treason is too painful.MatildaTsotsobewas eventually buried at

a relative’s house in NY56, Gugulethu.

A bleeding Mncedisi Twalo, leader of Abemi is taken tohospital after an alleged assault by people said to be closeto the deputy minister.

Lungisa Saunders(navy beanie) said to be a close friend ofMcebisi Skwatsha, berates an older man during the march tothe house.

ACHMAT EBRAHIMUMPHATHI WESIXEKO

ISAZISO SEENTLANGANISO ZEBHUNGALESIXEKO SASEKAPA

A place of hope and knowledgeMAKHAYA MANIE

JL Zwane Centre in Gugulethu caters for theeducational needs of over 80 young learnerson a daily basis.

The aim of this academically inclined pro-gramme is to help them overcome schoolsubject challenges which may hamper theircurricula progress.

This robust after-school programme hasbeen running at the centre since 1998.

Stakehodlers have confirmed an 80% suc-cess rate in helping children pass theirschool grades.

Called the “Rainbow After School pro-gramme”, it runs between Monday andThursday, staffed by 12 teachers and a prin-cipal, who give more than two hours of theirtime to assist the learners with school-workand various other challenges.

There is also a special class on Saturdaymornings, set aside for learners who arestruggling with Maths and Science relatedsubjects.

Each year, the JL Zwane Centre acceptschildren from Grades 1 to 12 to spend the aft-ernoon at the centre to complete their schoolwork under the supervision of a teacher.

The programme initially started on asmall scale with few teachers volunteeringbut has now grown as more and more refer-rals are made from the schools.

Before commencing with their schoolwork, the children are provided with a meal.

JL Zwane Centre director and founderReverend Dr Spiwo Xapile says the pro-gramme was initiated as an intervention.

“To assist learners who could not copewith the standard of school work at the pre-vious model C schools.

“ You will remember when our country be-gan the new democratic dispensation, manyparents took their children to these previ-ously white schools.

“But were not aware that their childrenwould be exposed to a new culture of school-ing and it was no surprise that many of ourtownship children at these schools struggledwith Maths, Science, English grammar andreading”

Dr Xapile added: “If we had not providedthis after school programme, many of thesechildren would have failed their grades orthey would have dropped out of school.

The learners speak in awe on the impactthe programme has made with their academ-ic performance. Many of them have gone onto pass their matric and are now employedby leading companies.

One of these, Nomthetho Mqakayi, passedher matric exams and is now employed byOld Mutual.

13-year old Xolile Zono is a grade 7 learnerat the Luzuko Primary school in Guguletu.He has been with the programme since 2010and he recalls:

“ The programme has helped me overcomechallenges with maths and geography”

When I came here, I was battling withthese subjects, but these teachers havehelped me a lot.

Mihlali Ndaba, a grade 7 learner at theHeideveld Primary school, is an everpresent sight at JL Zwane and has been at-tending the after school programme since2012.

Mihlali says” I joined the Rainbow AfterSchool programme because I was battlingwith maths. When I heard about RainbowAfter School, I asked my grandmother if Icould attend the programme.?

“I can now safely say I am more comforta-ble with maths and history, I want to thankthe teachers who have been patient with meand helped me quite a lot.”

Principal, Noma Mantanga, who has beenwith the programme since its inception,says the programme has also made a posi-

tive intervention on the learners, in vari-ous social challenges.

“Since I have been leading this pro-gramme, I have interacted with many chil-dren who had different challenges otherthan academic.

As teachers we would often have one onone interactions with each learner, and wewould discover that their behavioural pat-terns, the way they are dressed, would ena-ble us to easily pick up if they are battlingwith challenges of unstable families, orthey were victims of negligence.”

“This programme has been a timeous in-tervention as it will close that gap. ‘Man-tanga said

Patrick Nyebeta is another educator. Heassists the learners with technology andcomputer literacy know-how.

“The programme has helped the kids andthe community. Parents do not have suffi-cient time to assist with school work.

We assist with their school work. We alsohelp develop them so they can improvetheir level of understanding and in so doingprepare them for the next grade of theirschooling.”

Thandile Nombila,14, a pupil at MsekiPrimary dreams of becoming a lawyer oneday, and is confident that the programmeat JL Zwane will help achieve her dreams.

“It also keeps us away from the streets.After school we come to JL Zwane and wespend time with the teachers and this hashelped me a lot in getting a better under-standing of the subjects I was struggling

with.”The learners agree with their teachers

that the afternoon care and education hascreated a safer environment and had it notbeen for this programme, some of themwould have become vulnerable to crime,drug abuse and possibly even victims of sex-ual abuse.

These learners are urging their peers thatRainbow After School must always continueas it has had a positive impact on theirschooling.

Noma Mantanga avers that if it wasn’t forthe programme, many of these kids wouldthen be victims of the social challenges ofour community, as many of their parentsand grandparents are only at home late inthe evenings.

The children could have been preyed on.Mantanga cautioned: “Some of the teach-

ers are retired, some are unemployed, butwe have chosen to give our time to assist thekids of our community with their academicwork and in so doing we are closing the gap.”

Patrick Nyebeta could not agree more:“We really appreciate the support of those

who are funding the programme as it hasmade a valuable intervention in the lives ofthese kids and their parents and broadercommunity of Guguletu”

. The JL Zwane Centre was awarded theState President’s Award in 1998 for best com-munity initiative.

It was an award which was personallyhanded over by the late former PresidentNelson Rholihlahla Mandela

Mental aid just down the streetMANDLA MAHASHE

Andries Banetsi Mphunga, the UWCpsychology graduate and Khayelitsharesident has partnered with the South

African College of Applied Psychology tobring meaningful services to patients in thearea.Mphunga is credited with bringing the

first ever mobile clinic dedicated to mentalhealth services in South Africa.Dubbed the Cara-cara, he uses his custom-

ised combi as consulting and counsellingrooms, targeting mostly the young.

Mphunga is a registered counsellor andis the founder of the Township Parents andChildren’s Centre, a community resource toprovide individuals and families experienc-ing mental challenges with help.The service is free and is expected to alle-

viate some of the stigma associated with vi-

siting a psychologist at a clinic.Mphunga said he has spent all his savings

on the vehicle with the hope of catering forresidents in the grip substance abuse, gang-sterism and other social ills such as crime,domestic and sexual violence.“In our areas it is hard for people to seek

psychological help because of the stigmaandthe lack of financial ability.“Mental illness is still stigmatised in the

townships. It’s associated with being crazyor weak.We’ve made the kombi colourful to make

it attractive even to young children.We want everyone in our community to

view mental illness as something normalthat can affect anyone from any back-ground,” said Mphunga.“I want to bring psychology here, and

hopefully inspire other young people to be-come psychologists so that they too may

change circumstances in their own commu-nity,”Sacap Chief Executive Lance Kats said

that the clinic was the first project the col-lege’s newly established foundation has in-vested in.“The reality is thatmental health services

are not available where the need is greatest.So a project like this, where psychologistswork on the ground and go to where peopleare is one of the projects we are looking for.We hope to use the mobile clinic to place

some of our graduates where they can getfurther training,” he said.Mphunga said hewould also use the clinic

to mentor other psychology students whowere interested in doing community work.Apart from mental health services being

out of reach in poorer communities,Mphun-ga said the stigma attached when visiting apsychologist held many young people back

from accessing this crucial service.In an environment fraught with trauma

and abuse, seeking clinical help during life’sstruggles was often impossible due to thescarcity of mental health resources and thecost attached, particularly for the young andunemployed. The clinic’s aim was to breakdown these barriers to treatment and nor-malise seeking professional help in toughand shocking times.Katz said mental well-being was the

springboard for learning, thinking and com-munication skills, as well as for emotionalgrowth, resilience and self-esteem.

We hope to use the mobile clinic to placesome of our graduates where they can getfurther training,” he said.For more information on the services ren-

dered by the Township and Childrens Cen-tre, contactMphunga at: 073 722 7268 and askfor Caracara Services.

Sacap has come on board with Mphunga to bring mental services closer PHOTOS: MANDLA MAHASHEMphunga will use this Caracara kombi to counsell those in need of his services.

Shenanigans in GDF bypeople lacking visionGugulethu will be turning 60 in August2018, but it has little progress to showfor this milestone, albeit stories abound.On April 30 residents converged at the

JL Zwane church with the purpose ofelecting a legitimate committee for theGugulethu Development Forum.It was going to be a monumental

moment in the annals of the history ofthis township; a fresh start; giving hopeto a township suffering for many socialills.It was going to be the start to a clear

future.Instead of electing people who will

bring growth in terms of development,and people we all know have vestedinterests in the practical in development,the meeting turned into a tug of war,taking a weird turn of events into peopleidentifying each other as comrades.Others called each other by name,

indicating that they were not part of thelobbying for positions.There must be a difference between a

politician and civil society member andthis got me thinking if are we reallyputting Gugulethu first. The GDF cannotbe politically aligned.Why put our political relationships

before the residents of Gugulethu as ifGugulethu cannot develop withoutthem(politicians).Why align development with politics

and why degenerate the level of thinkingin Gugulethu.Maybe it is time we start following our

name because Gugulethu means ourpride.Have we lost our pride because we

choose friendship over development andthe saddening part is those among uswho are so eager for power have previ-ously had opportunities and faileddismally in their previous positions ofresponsibility.I’m speaking of the previous executive

members of Gugulethu Youth Develop-ment Commission and the formerchairperson of the same structure.Why undermine our history, allowing

it to loosely be handled by people whoclaim to be leaders but lack vision.

Let’s think of our future generationbecause history will judge Gugulethu bythose they put in power and Gugulethubelongs to those who have a postal codeof 7750 which includes Barcelona,Kanana, New Rest, Tambo Village andKwa-Khikhi, Pola Park, Gxagxa andLotus River as well as many other fewareas are part of Gugulethu.The aim of the GDF is to improve and

enhance development in the township,and promote economic participation aswell as to improve economic inclusionand to enable Gugulethu citizens to fulfiltheir potential by promoting self-orientedinitiatives.Therefore it should be led by the

people of Gugulethu, we cannot allowthis initiative to be led by poor politicalhungry idealists.It’s surprising to hear that the same

individuals, who are being blamed forside-lining areas like Barcelona, Kanana,and New Rest, include people likeNombeko Leputing, a leader in Ward 40.In 2011-2012 Xolile Ndzoyi and Nceba

Sandlana were very instrumental inending a war of gangsterism betweenKhikhi and Section 2 boys.Nceba, Xolile and other dedicated

individuals were on the ground trying toresolve and find ways of fixing theproblems.It becomes very confusing when people

work on second-hand information;individuals with specific agendas drivenby factionalism with the aim of misguid-ing the people of Gugulethu with a viewto discredit individuals who are doinggood in this township.Gugulethu Development Forum’s aim

is developing and allowing Gugulethu togrow on its own.We need to create social cohesion

programs for better economic opportuni-ties, and establish a proactive programthat will create synergy in the societysuch as encouraging entrepreneurialskills, sports activities for the youth,tourism programs and most importantly,making Gugulethu safe to live.

Write to usDo not live under the shadowof the past, for it is inhibitingThis is a call to all those young peopleidling at home, “waiting” for employment.I refer to most youth from disadvan-

taged communities. Others term thesecommunities poor. I do not believe this isthe case.If only because it is disempowering. It

takes away the power to transform theirlives.It is critically important to use a

positive and empowering language. Thereis power in language. It can either buildor destroy. No one is born poor.I am reminded of my favourite author

Anthony Robbins, in his book ‘UnlimitedPower’, referring to the power within allof us.The power that can transform our life if

we choose so.Allow me to argue that for young people

seating at home doing “nothing” in thename of waiting for employment or tostudy further must fall!It should not be normalised. While

waiting, build your profile.Our history has a huge contributory

factor in this train of thought. We shouldrefuse to live under the shadow and

legacy of colonialism, slavery and apart-heid. Life is not about being employed.I always like to ask young people or

friends: ‘what do you do?’.I do this to challenge and empower

OPINIONmandla klanisi

Children deserve our attentionMy high school principal Ernest Hlathionce said: “Young people are greatimitators. That is why we always givethem something great to imitate.”I remembered his words when I saw

with concern how some children havebeen reduced to street kids.Children are a gift from God and

deserve to be cared for and kept in safehands. We are tired of waking up tohorror stories about young girls who getraped by men who should be lookingafter them.We cannot keep reading about young

boys converted to child soldiers byselfish people who have made enemies tofight against.Children are born with open minds

and it is up to us to fill their youngminds.We must not abuse kids as they could

grow up thinking it is a way of life.

Apparently, abused children in turnbecome abusers in future. We cannotafford this ongoing vicious cycle.Children are precious but vulnerable.They deserve our love and care.As caring members of society, we must

break the silence whenever we seeincidents of child abuse, even outside ofour own homes and communities.Institutions such as Child Welfare and

Childline South Africa were started todeal with child abuse cases and can becalled free of charge to bring culprits tobook.Since it takes a village to raise a child,

it should also take the whole village toact against abuse, neglect and exploita-tion of children.A person is a person, no matter how

small.WELILE NKONKI

The rich should not have the last word running our landRich people can command greaterattention from influential policy-makersby contributing financially to politicalleaders.This is how financial resources trans-

late into political power. The Guptadebacle drives home how seriously thepolitical process can be manipulated by

money. Have we become so used to themanipulation of the political process bythose with money that we no longerexpect anything to change?Something has clearly gone wrong in

our country.MONWA YEDWA

A thousand metres, starts with a single flailing step

Behind every success story is an embar-rassing first effort, a stumble, a setbackor a radical change of direction. It isthese first clumsy steps on the road to

fame and fortune that we all have toovercome to clinch the victor’s cup.

In his debut run over 12km, South Africa’sStephenMokoka showed the internation-al contingent and the top three finishers

from 2015, Emmanuel Bett, Daniel Salel andTimothy Toroitich, a clean pair of heals atthe 2016 FNB Cape Town 12 OneRun thattook place in the Mother City on Sunday 15May.

Some 13 000 runners lined up in MarineDrive next to Woodbridge Island for the sec-ond running of the FNBCape Town 12OneR-un. As in 2015, conditions were near perfectwith the temperature sitting on 12 degrees.

A frenetic start saw the first kilometre be-ing covered in 02:41. When the lead bunchof fifteen athletes went through three kilo-metres in 08:17, it was clear that the chasefor the world best time of 33:31 was on thecards. Defending champion Emmanuel Bettof Kenya and country man Daniel Salel,were driving the lead bus with Mokoka andElroy Gelant in close attendance.

Both Gelant andMokoka hadmade it veryclear before the race that they were intenton making sure that the winner’s pursestayed on home soil.

The five kilometre mark came just insidethe harbour grounds as the athletes turnedoff Marine Drive, passing in 13:55. Once inthe harbour, it was Bett who started to turnthe screws to try and shake off the South Af-rican challenge, with Salel on his shoulder.Mokoka and Gelant were having none of

it and as the athletes hit 8km, Mokoka andGelant made the break, with Salel the onlyathlete to follow the South Africans.

The nine kilometre mark was reached in25:11. Salel, Mokoka and Gelant turned intoBree Street simultaneously for the final kilo-metre.

Gelant fell off with 800m to go. Salel andMokoka raced neck andneck to the linewithMokoka edging the Kenyan by one second,coming home in 33:34 to the 33:35 of Salel.

With that Mokoka shattered the previousrecord of Mathews ‘Loop ‘n Val’ Motshwara-

teu by 49 seconds and missed out on theworld best time of 31:33 by a mere three sec-onds.

“It was a hard race”, said Mokoka after-wards.

“Salel pushedmy right to the line but I am

happy thatwewon the race for SouthAfrica.Elroy (Gelant) and I worked together andwere talking to each other the whole way.So I am happy we were able to work as ateam.”Mokoka has been adamant that South Af-

rica has the ability to take the race to theKenyans if they work as a team. “I wantedthe win first,” Mokoka went on to say ofbreaking the SA best time of Motshwarateu(34:23), “but the record is a big bonus.”The bonus was worth an additional

R10 000 to Mokoka over and above theR40 000 for first prize.In the women’s race, Irvette Van Zyl was

first across the line. While most expectedthat, Van Zyl had been battling with the flufor close on a week and almost withdrew aft-er four kilometres in. “Itwas hard. I felt real-ly bad and wanted to just stop.”

Van Zyl hung on though and despite feel-ing out of sortswent into the lead after sevenkilometres and was never headed.

“When Lebogang went through the first-two kilometres in sixminutes I was hangingon as best I could. I do not know how I wasable to just stick it out. I am very surprisedby the win.”

Van Zyl was originally planning on chas-ing the SA best time of Elana Meyer (38:39),but having just recovered from flu she sether sights on thewin crossing the finish linein 39:40.Results:Men:1.

Gugs, Manenberg youth have own sports hubMANDLA MAHASHE

Young people from Gugulethu and Manen-berg are the beneficiaries of a newlylaunched high-tech recreational centre.

On Tuesday afternoon at the GugulethuComprehensive High School, the facilitywas launched as the Oliver Khan SafetyHub.

It is funded by German soccer legend Ol-iverKhan, throughhis foundation andwasthe brainchild of the Amandla EduFoot-ball.

This hub is the second in the provincewith the first one in Site B, Khayelitsha.

Florian Zech, managingmanager at Am-andla, said at the launch that the hub aimsto tackle social ills such as poverty, gangrelated crimes and illiteracy in the twocommunities.

“The facilities will have a soccer pitch,an internet cafe and a learning hub.In that way, we will offer an all round pro-gramme to young people who will not justplay soccer butwill have access to informa-tion technology, entrepreneur support andlife skills programmes as well,” said Zech.The safe hub is also funded by various

government departments and private do-nors and will provide permanent jobs forabout 25 people.

Premier Helen Zille said the hub wouldplay amajor role in skills development, ac-ademic growth and crime-prevention inthe area.“In Khayelitsha where this initiative

started, we have receivedwonderful statis-tics of how crime has decreased in the 600metre radius of the centre.

By engaging the youth in sporting activi-ties, academic support and life skills, theyhave changed the neighbourhood for thebetter,” she said.

Zille said that one of the positives thatcomewith the hub is that it will service theyouth of the two neighbourhoods.

“After Schools programmes are a GameChanger for our government. Our aim isto have 112 000 learners fromno fee schoolsaccessing quality after schools pro-grammes, in safe spaces, by 2019,” Zillesaid.The centre will include a training acade-

my, where the provincial government’sMass participation; Opportunity &Access;Development & Growth (MOD) centre willbe based, and aYouthCafé, provided by theWestern Cape Department of Social Devel-opment. Learners will have full access tocomputers, the internet, various WesternCape Government portals with useful re-sources, and other career support.
