‘It will be fi xed’ -

Mayor tells people

SOLMA 2015 - p 2

2 NEWS 19 JUNE 2015

Tubatse Local Municipality Mayor, Cllr Ralepane Mamekoa presented local communities with the municipality’s IDP and budget for 2015 and 2016 last Saturday at the Motlamotse Primary School sports ground in Ga-Mashabela between Burgersfort and Moroke. He thanked com-munities in the municipality for their democratic participation in contributing to the fi nalising of the budget and he highlighted the cureent state of thew municipality in his speech.

He told the crowd, who was entertained by cultural performers and various artists before dignitaries arrived, that “We are also going to implement ‘Back to Basics’ principles as advo-cated by Minister Pravin Gordhan during the Local Government Summit held in Midrand. Also President Zuma reiterated that by saying ‘’Getting back to basics means working tirelessly to ensure that municipalities provide water, electricity, parks, street lighting, refuse removal, repairing of potholes, dealing with the frustrating interruption of services and the problems with billing systems’’. Today we would like to commit ourselves that Back to Basics will be the Motto of the Municipality when delivering services to the communities”.

He said the municipality continues to experience a growing economy despite the challeng-es facing the country in terms of job losses and the energy crisis.

He thanked mining houses indivudually for the role they play in improving the lives of people and communities in genera, saying “We have witnessed economic activities happen-ing in Burgersfort which indicate that most of our people are employed and can afford basic things. The mines were able to offer many people jobs and this has improved our economic outlook. The interventions made in our communities through Social and Labour plans by the Mines have made a positive and meaningful contribution to accelerate the provision of basic services. However we would like to call upon our social partners to extend their hands further especially in mining affected areas”.

He also told the crowd “We have witnessed many actions of violence which prevented people from going to work as a means to address disputes. We are against that practise and encourage our people to engage the Municipality if there are misunderstandings between Industry and the communities. We have managed to resolve many disputes through peaceful means and that is the route we want to take in addressing all challenges”.

Turning to the challenges facing the municipality he said a major challenge is the rising number of customers who are unable to service their monthly debts for services. The , the total number of customers on the debt book is 15 660 and the total debt owed to the munic-ipality is standing at R 124 972 159.85 which is from; Household R38 million, R10 million from Businesses, R 67 million from Sector Departments and with others at R 8, 5 million (this includes farms, sundry debtors, etc).

Turning to Youth Month Mayor Mamekoa announced that over the past four years the municipality managed to assist over 80 students with bursaries to continue with their tertiary studies, saying that in future “ our approach will be to fund studies from the fi rst year until the completion. In the past some students were left frustrated because they were only funded on the fi rst year”.

He also said the Municipality’s ability to address the basic service backlogs is constrained by the fact that it does not have the authority to perform certain key functions such as water, electricity, fi re fi ghting and district roads. This status, constrains the pace of property develop-ment in the area. Going forward and working together with other spheres of government he said the municipality believes these challenges should be addressed as part of the municipal-ity local turnaround strategy for accelerated development and service delivery to communities.

Progress Report

Mayor: “Allow me to present the progress report on the projects that the Municipality promised to deliver in the 2014/15 fi nancial year. As stated our powers are limited by the Constitution and we are unable to provide services like water, sanitation and electrifi cation and we only rely on other spheres of government to assist us. We managed to achieve the following:

Upgrading of Ohrigstad internal streets, construction of the Ohrigstad sports complex, completion of roofi ng for Burgersfort hawkers facilities, construction of Maphopha access bridge, Habeng access bridge, resealing of the Burgersfort road, completion of Burgersfort internal streets, the Burgersfort drainage system which will be completed before the second quarter of the 2015/16 fi nancial year, Praktiseer hawkers facilities, Kgautswane Access bridge

Our programme of upgrading our roads is continuing in Burgersfort and Ohrigstad. In the past we had a challenge of potholes in Burgersfort town and up to date the road has been resealed and most fi xed. We are concerned about the traffi c congestion that is experienced in town on daily basis due to non functioning of traffi c lights. We would like to apologise to all road users for the incon-venienced caused especially during peak hours, together with Eskom we are addressing the problem and in no time all robots will be back to normal. The Municipality is also having plans to construct a by-pass road that will alleviate congestion”.

IDP and budget for 2015/16 are R661 million.

Capital budget R290 millionOperational budget R371 million

Electricity“In the last fi nancial year we promised to implement Operation Mabone to accelerate the provision of electricity in the villages and we are proud to announce that the project is now implemented and more than 13 000 households in the following villages will be electrifi ed come September 2015:

Kutullo, Koppie, Mapareng, Kgopaneng, Buffelshoek, Kalkfontein, Barelong, Dibakwane, Maphutle, Kampeng, Mandela Park, France, Leboeng, Dithamaga, Taung, Malaeneng, Sekopung, Makofane, Pidima, Matokomane, Makotaseng, Praktiseer extension 3 and 11. The second phase will include areas such as Bothashoek and Ga-Mashamothane. Council adopted a resolution to include all villages that are not covered in the original contract of Operation Mabone. We are lobbying National Depart-ments such as Treasury, DOE to pledge for funding of electrifi cation for the remaining villages. ESKOM has committed 320 units which will include electrifi cation of Legabeng in Mapodile township, Ga-Komane in Leolo and Mashifane Park.We are also engaging Mining Companies in the area of Ngwaabe to fund electrifi cation of household connections at Ga-Masha Matakakatela and Ga-Maphopha area”.

2015/16 Capital ProjectsThe Municipality is going to implement the following projects: Ga-Mabelane Access bridge at Ward 22,Mankgaganyane access bridge at Ward 11, Sehlabeng access bridge, Morokadieta Access bridge Ward 11, Bothashoek internal road, Phase 2 of the Tubatse Highmast lights in villages, Mapodile sports complex, Motodi Sports complex, Burgersfort Flea market, Burgersfort storm water drainage system, Tubatse Rehabilitation of waste facilities, Ga-Motshana access bridge, Mafarafara access bridge, Mpuru access bridge, Madithongwane access bridge, Mabocha access bridge, Tjate access bridge, Legoleng access bridge and fencing of rural cemeteries

Ngululu continues to spread warmth

Ngululu Bulk Carriers near Steelpoort held their annual community day on 5 June 2015. The event was held at Winterveld Recreation Club. The company uses this day to give back to the communities in which they operate. Elderly and vulnerable people from six different communities attended the event and 300 warm blankets were handed to them. The group was quick to show their appreciation for Ngululu and accepted their blankets with dances of joy. They were also entertained by Noma-sondo Selahle, an employee at Ngululu Bulk Carriers, but a true talent when it comes to song and entertainment. The

elderly were quick to join Nomasondo for a dance. The group was served a warm meal before they headed back home. Ngululu would like to thank Winterveld Recreation Club and wishes everyone a warm winter. (Photographs & information: Theresa Hartzer, Ngululu Bulk Carriers).

One of the four men assaulted by the community died on the scene and the three others were taken to hospital. Cases of murder and attempted murder were opened. No one has been arrested.

On Monday 15 June 2015, another 23-year old man was assaulted and stone to death by thte same community members of Segorong Village. It is also alleged that the victim was involved in the murder that occurred on 3 June. The man died on the scene where the assualt and stoning took place. The police is currently busy wiht investigation and no arrests have been made yet. The Tubatse SAPS would like to urge the community not to take the law into their own hands. “We would like to urge the community to give the police any information related to criminal activities and they will deal with the information with further investigations” said Const.

Community members stone two to death

Man found burnt at Maepa VillageThe Ohrigstad SAPS has opened an Inquest into the death of a 34-year old man who was found burned to death in his shack on 14 June 2015. The man was last seen on Saturday afternoon when he was allegedly driinking alcohol at Maepa Village. On Sunday afternoon when he was not seen during the day, his family went to look for him at his shack. They found his shack’s door locked and forced their way in when they found no answer. They discovered the burnt body. The SAPS was alerted. The cause of the fi re is

unknown, but it is suspected that a cigarette could have set him alight as cigarette buds were found at the scene. The investigation will continue, but in the mean time the Ohrigstad SAPS is appealing to the community and especially the youth to refrain from using alcohol and drugs, but to focus on their education as a key for success.

According to statistics, more than 60% of young people are unemployment in this country. This has moved Le-hlogonolo Ratau (25) to do something about the predic-ament facing the youth of today. Lehlogonolo who hails from a tiny village, Ga Maepa said that after obtaining his N5 electrical engineering qualifi cation and IT diploma he wanted nothing but to start his own business. “I have realised that most young people in the area think that the only way out of poverty is to work for someone else, which in reality, is the other way round. What our local youth lack is determination and tolerance to run a business, hence they rely on others for survival,’ he said. He added that government and private sectors alone cannot fi ght and win the hardships brought about by his-torical past and joblessness. “As young people we need to stand-up and claim our rightful position in the country’s economy where our parents were disadvantaged by the apartheid system.”Lehlogonolo is not only striving to become a success-ful businessman, he is also founder of Tubatse Youth Chamber, a registered Non-Profi t organisation he run with 10 other local young business people in and around

Young entrepreneur aims highthe Tubatse area. He also runs a successful fashion designing shop, sewing of PPE, printing and embroidery of t-shirts in the Steelpoort CBD and employs three people. “I’m also involved in fashion designing and sewing of PPE for industrial purpose. My road into the business world was not easy. I took over from my father who retired in 2013 and I approached the National Youth Development Agen-cy (NYDA) who gave me a kick start. Because it was not enough, I also approached Steelpoort Pick n Pay who assisted. I intent expanding into embroidery printing and PPE manufacturing”, he said. Despite Lehlogonolo’s busy schedule, in his spare time he assist in his family’s 22 hectors vegetable garden which produces cabbage, spinach, tomatoes and sweet potatoes. “We supply big shops in Jane Furse, Steel-poort and the local informal fruit markets. I would like to encourage young people to stand up and do some-thing for themselves rather than wait for hand-outs from government and the private sector. Lehlogonolo can be found at Mapodile Thusong Service Centre in GCIS’s offi ce or at 072 933 4026 or @ [email protected].

On Sunday last week the Burgersfort Game Store soccer team visited Tubatse Masters in Praktiseer for a friendly soccer match. The match took place at Leolo Secondary School’s sports grounds. The visitors started off very strong and dominated the ball possession. They displayed some good touches and kept on threatening the Masters’ de-fence. Their attack paid off when Robert Phokane struck a long range kick just after the centre mark to beat Masters’ goalkeeper Sipho Makabate to make the score 1-0 in favour of Game Stores. Masters also had some scoring opportunities, but the visitors’ keeper Joseph Majadibodu produced some good saves. Tubatse Masters fi nally man-aged to level the score when Lekgotla Motswiane scored. This was however short lived as Jan Mo-tene beat the Masters’ goalkeeper with a powerful shot from outside the box. Tubatse Masters came back strong in the last 15 minutes of the fi rst half. Mbesuma Mabaso managed to score two goals and Thabiso Molemane scored one goal. The half time score was 4-2 in favour of the Masters.In the second half both teams made some chang-es and continued their attacks. The visitors scored fi rst in the second half with Macdonald Matent-jie. The Masters scored two more goals by Ally Maimela and Zorro Tshwane. Final score: 6-3 in favour of Tubatse Masters.

In the second half the visitors improved their performance and kept the Masters’ defence very busy. Lollypop Motswiane scored Tubat-se Masters’ second goal.

Thorburn Security Solutions hosted its annual Thorburn Community Golf Day on 12 June 2015. The day took place at Tubatse Chrome Club. The day annually brings together businesses, leaders and associates in the Sekhukhune area and this year took place for the seventh consecutive time. The idea is not only to bring the business-people together but also local players from other areas. “Infl uential businessman and community leader, Tim Marobane assisted us with getting the golf players from the com-munity and local businesses,” said Thorburn Managing Director, Dolf Scheepers. Twelve teams participated in the event. The winners each walked away with a lamb food hamper valued at just under R1000. (Photo left). Providing sustenance on the day was Thorburn HR Manager Ellence Monyela (aka, Chef!), who made prego steak rolls for all the players. The Mobile Command Unit was on standby to keep a watchful eye on the proceedings. Thorburn thanked everyone who helped to ensure this year’s golf day is a success.Thorburn’s caring actions is not limited to a golf day once a year. Their Ice Breaker Project (winter warmer project) originated in the Steelpoort/Maandagshoek area and has gradually expanded to other areas in Sekhukhune. It is now also running in the Northern Cape and Sasolburg and Secunda areas. Thorburn brings blankets to people in need during the cold winter periods. Last week the project distributed blankets to 100 people in the Dingleton area near Kathu in the North-ern Cape. Coming back to its roots, the project visited villages in Sekhukhune on Thursday and Friday last week. 100 blankets and soup packets were distributed in the Mmpaphahl-ane and Mapea Villages. These are commu-nities near Phokathaba Platinum Mine where Thorburn provide security services. Another 200 blankets and soup packets will be distributed in the next two weeks in Sasol-burg and Secunda.
