Poisoned juice cause for open space closurea 26-year-old mother is in custody after her two daughters, Merry and Marita Tsoku, aged three and one respectively, died after allegedly drinking juice laced with poison in an open space in Zonkizizwe.The community members of Zonkizizwe, in conjunction with the police, youth desk, community policing forum, Department of Community Safety and other stakeholders held a murder and rape awareness campaign in the area. The event came as a result of criminal activities occurring in the open velds of Zonkizizwe, which includes rape, assault, murder and robberies. Sergeant Rufus Tema, communications officer of Zonkizizwe Police Station said that the campaign was held to form some means of preventing criminal activities in the area. He said that they are targeting open spaces in zone 1 to 6 and involving the community in the fight against crime. Rufus said the matter of the mother whose children died of poison alerted everyone to take action. The woman alleges that she and her family was travelling from Witbank. She said her husband gave them juice to drink and dropped them off at an open field in Zonkizizwe. Tema said that according to the police investigations the woman was staying with her sister at Zonkizizwe and had domestic problems that led to the incident. The investigations led to the arrest of the woman. “We encourage people to report cases of domestic violence to the police station. They will be referred to social workers for help. Domestic violence, if left unattended, can lead to other crimes like murder and assault,” said Tema. Grace Mokoena, a concerned resident of Zonkizizwe said, “The incident is shocking and we don’t know who poisoned the innocent children. We advise people who are facing challenges to visit social workers for assistance. We are also appealing to the government to build shopping centres, garages, recreation parks, community centres or buildings to cover the open spaces.” Octavia Ngwenya, assistant director of community police relations at the Department of Community Safety said, “We are identifying the hot spots and sensitising the community to be safe by avoiding walking alone at night near dilapidated buildings and open spaces. We will engage with the local government to find a plan of covering the open spaces. We want to make Zonkizizwe a crime free township by starting programmes to combat crime.” The mother of the deceased daughters stood trial at the Heidelberg Court on 23 October and the case was postponed for further investigations. She remains in custody until her next appearance on 11 November, when her plea and bail application will be considered. The two girls were laid to rest at the Rondebult cemetery in Boksburg.

It is an exciting and crucial time of the year for everyone. The matriculants have started writing their final examinations this week. To some of them, the time they have been waiting for has finally arrived and they are ready, whereas others are left with no choice but to face the examinations.Matric is like a race and it is up to the students to sprint, run or jog. We hope that they will apply everything that they have learnt during the past 12 years. tame TIMES had an opportunity to interview some matric students around Kathorus a day before commencement of the examinations. One of the interviewees said she won’t sleep the day before the examination as she will be studying the whole night. She went on to say, she will make sure that she carries her notebook in the morning to continue revising before entering the examination room. I certainly do not think last minute reading is a clever idea. The question is what happened to the time that they were given to prepare for the examinations? This is an indicator that some of the learners are not as well prepared as they should be. I advise learners to refrain from this habit, because it will not yield good results. It can actually cause exhaustion, confusion and panicking. At this time they should be relaxed and meditating on what they have learnt.In our school news this week, we also asked about the first English paper that they wrote.

The overall comment was that the paper was fair and most of them anticipated pass marks. We also encourage parents and guardians to support their children during this time. They should avoid giving learners many responsibilities, such as sending them for errands and doing household duties during the examination period.

Lastly, tame TIMES would like to wish the 2013 matric students all the best. Ambition and zeal will enable the students to pass with flying colours. Let’s meet again with more exciting news and stories.

As South Africans continue to embrace Gospel music, which is getting increased airplay on radio and other media forms, ‘Clap and Tap’ and Zion music (South Africa’s Indigenous Choral Music) continues to be overlooked. That is what inspired the Gauteng Department of Sports, Arts, Culture and Recreation to come up with the initiative of hosting South Africa’s Indigenous Choir Festival in various regions across the province.On 13 November, Ekurhuleni Indigenous Gospel Choirs will take centre stage at Germiston City Hall. According to the Department spokesperson, Nomazwe Ntlokwana, the performing groups will be competing to represent the Ekurhuleni region in the Provincial Festival scheduled for late November. “The objective of this initiative is to promote indigenous gospel music. As we continue to support indigenous games, we will do the same with indigenous gospel music so that it gains the status it deserves in society. Most young people are involved in this kind of music, which is one reason we support it,” said Ntlokwana.She said such activities helps the youth to refrain from anti-social behavior. Ntlokwana said such programs are trying to build social cohesion amongst communities. The choirs underwent a rigorous audition process, which ran throughout September, judged on criteria including originality, creativity, melody and arrangement. MEC Lebogang Maile, who is a firm believer of preserving and nurturing heritage, said, “The indigenous gospel music has been part of the community since time immemorial. This form of music has assisted in enriching the country’s rich music industry. Indigenous gospel has been an integral part of our community. It is imperative to keep it alive through festivals like these that offer exposure and opportunity for choirs to participate.”

Vosloorus Police Station is highly concerned with the number of hijacking cases reported and appeals to community members to be more alert on the matter.Captain Piet Rossouw, communications officer of Vosloorus Police Station said there are numerous cases of car hijackings reported in the area. “There is also an increase of car hijackings nearby the taverns and shebeens, especially at night. We are appealing to the community to be more alert and to make sure that they are safe when driving at night.”He said drivers should always travel with the doors locked and keep all windows closed. “Leave enough room between your car and the one in front to avoid being boxed in. Make sure you can see where the tyres of the other car make contact with the road. Remain in your car if it is hit from behind by another vehicle. Inspect any damage only once you are sure it is not a hijacking attempt. Attract the attention of other motorists or pedestrians if you think you are in danger by using the hooter, flashing lights, emergency lights or shouting. Drivers should be aware of anybody who approaches their car or are loitering near traffic lights, stop streets, parking areas or driveways,” he said.Captain Rossouw said drivers should also constantly monitor the vehicles travelling behind, ahead and next to them. He said more than one vehicle could be involved in a hijacking and they could be setting a trap to stop the victim. He also warned drivers not to stop at the scene of an accident

unless they are convinced it is genuine. “Accidents can be set up in the hope that the victim will stop to assist. Sometimes a ‘body’ is put next to the road. Rather drive on and report the incident at the nearest police station. Even slowing down much may make the victim vulnerable. They should not pick up hitchhikers or unknown passengers. They should not leave car doors open and the engine running while opening a garage door or gates - criminals can act faster than you expect,” said Captain Rossouw.In conclusion he said that victims of hijackings should seek help as soon as the suspects have left and immediately report it to the police. They should also get professional counselling to help deal with the situation.

Vosloorus crime successes

Two males, aged 22 and 28, and one 53-year-old female were travelling in a white Isuzu bakkie on the N3 Highway from KwaZulu-Natal, when they were stopped by the SAPS Flying Squad as part of a stop and search operation. According to Vosloorus Police Station spokesperson Captain Piet Rossouw, his colleagues discovered about eight white Econo bags filled with dagga, with a street value of around R200 000. “The dagga weighs about 92.6kg. Police stopped the vehicle because it looked suspicious. The three suspects were detained

at the Vosloorus Police Station,” said Captain Rossouw.He said the suspects have already appeared before the Vosloorus Magistrate’s Court and their case has been postponed for further investigations. Rossouw said police have zero tolerance against drugs in the country. “Police will not hesitate to stop and search any suspicious vehicle we come across. We are appealing to the public to come forward with information that could lead to the arrest of criminals. Vosloorus police officers would like to salute Warrant Officer Lesetja Monong (46) and Constable Hosea Nkabinde (39) for doing an excellent job in arresting the three alleged dagga smugglers,” concluded Captain Rossouw.

Mpho Gamede, a 29-year-old man from number 19 Goba Section in Katlehong went missing on 18 September 2013. The Gamede family is pleading to the community to assist in determining his whereabouts. According to the distraught mother Victoria Ntombikayise Gamede, the day when her son went missing he woke up and bathed

as usual. She said he left the house and she thought that he was taking a walk as he usually does, but he did not return home. “My son is mentally handicapped and was undergoing some treatment. His challenge is only noticeable through a conversation. He is used to going to our relatives for days without informing me, but the relatives inform me when he is at their place. I have consulted all our family members, relatives and friends and no one has seen him. We have been looking for him for a month now. We have gone to the nearby hospitals and government mortuaries but we could not find him.”Gamede is pleading to the members of the community to assist in finding her son. “He is light in complexion and is of average height. He smokes and drinks alcohol occasionally. He has a humble, polite and quiet personality. It is difficult to live without knowing his whereabouts. I am confused, depressed and l still have hope that he is still alive. I appeal to the community members to help in finding my son and those who have seen him can contact me or report to the police station,” said Gamede.

She has opened a missing person case at Katlehong North Police Station. For those who have seen anyone resembling the description of Mpho Gamede, please contact Victoria at 078 596 3709 / 071 224 2394 or report to the nearest police station.

About 50 young creative geniuses were given an opportunity to showcase their God-given talent in an art exhibition initiative held at Chris Hani Crossing Mall. The art exhibition was dubbed Craft Day, which was opened for local children ranging from 3-12 years old.According to the Mall Marketing Manager Lebo Matlala, the objective of hosting the event was to celebrate the mall’s third birthday. “Children were given different art concepts to design. Later in the day the mall management auctioned the children’s art to the mall’s tenants. The 50 participants paid a minimum of R5 for registration. Money generated from participants was donated to Osizo Support Organisation based in Katlehong,” explained Matlala.Osizo Support Organisation Project Manager, NG Mtshali cited that they are excited about the initiative. She said money donated to their organisation will be used to purchase groceries and clothes for the organisation’s children. “This gesture by the mall management is part of giving back to the community

of Kathorus. Our organisation caters for the orphans and vulnerable children. We also do home visits for senior citizens during our spare time,” concluded Mtshali. Children were given party packs, cupcakes and ice cream. They were given game tokens and had their faces painted, which excited them most.

Reuben Mloyi, from Vosloorus, recently bought a new car. He emphasises how important it is to be cautious on the road. He said he has seen quite a number of accidents and thus he is extra careful. In addition, Mloyi is concerned with law enforcement personnel that are not efficient and strict enough to maintain order on the roads, especially where taxi drivers are concerned.What type of car do you drive?I drive a white Polo VW 2.0.Is this your first car?Yes, it is. I actually bought it recently.Why did you choose Polo VW?It is a reflection of my personality, which is simple. It is also fast and the white colour is a happy colour.What special features does your car have?It has standard features, which includes a big engine for the Polo model. It is also very

comfortable and I like the speedometer. In addition, it has a wide space in the boot, like a sedan.Would you allow anyone to drive your car?I only allow my dad, because l also drive his car. Other people do not have insurance, so if they have an accident whilst driving my car I will be in a tight spot. On the other hand, some people just enjoy driving around but without

considering that fuel is paid for in order for the vehicle to move.Have you travelled any long distance with your car?I have travelled around the West Rand and neighbouring suburbs.Do you have any traffic fines so far?No, I do not.How do you intend to stay without any traffic fines?l will have my seatbelt on at all times. I will also always have my driving license with.During this transport month, what advice can you give?They should get rid of the e-tolling system. It is an unnecessary expense because we are already paying the toll gates. It is daylight robbery. What should be done to minimise accidents?Do not drink and drive. It is also important to maintain your car well.Is there anywhere you wish to go to with your new car?I wish to go to the Free State to see my grandmother. I will be going in December.

Lesego Lebeloane, from Phumula in Vosloorus, believes in being her own boss and not working for anybody. The 22-year-old has dreams of being an entrepreneur by owning an advertising and promotion company. She says that the only reason why she is currently job hunting is to acquire experience and funds to build her own empire. Lebeloane is a model and also does freelance modelling for the famous fashion designer David Tlale. tame TIMES met up with Lebeloane at Ekurhuleni West College, Kathorus Campus, where she had just submitted her application for a course in human resources. She said, “In high school I specialised in sciences, but now I have realised I am interested in business and that is why I want to branch into human resources.”She urges young women to love themselves in order to be able

to have solid relationships with other people. “You have to love yourself first to be able to reach out to others. Women should believe in themselves and have faith that they will succeed,” said Lebeloane. Lebeloane’s long term goal is to be independent and successful in her future business plans.

She also wants to provide for her family. One of the obstacles

she has faced in pursuing her dreams is negative friends and people who are

very demotivating. She says she has overcome this hurdle by being strong and also choosing her friends wisely.

“We should love and support one another. It is unfortunate that nowadays it seems people resort

to fighting as a solution,” said Lebeloane.

She enjoys dancing, socialising with friends

and doing artistic work.

Lebeloane is calling on young

women to dream big.

Katlehong Local AIDS Council in partnership with Katlehong Community Policing Forum and Medecins Sana Frontieres (Doctors without Borders) is hosting an exhibition on migration and xenophobia, which started on 25 October and will continue until 9 November at Ramokonopi Police Station hall in Katlehong.The objective of the exhibition is to build

public awareness and critical consciousness around people in situations of migration and the barriers that exist for people seeking refuge in South Africa, particularly with regard to healthcare. The community members, foreigners, business stakeholders and different nationalities are invited to the event. People have different views about foreigners, some say they are taking their jobs, wives, resources and are causing the shortages of

ARVs in the local clinics. There are different testimonies from the foreigners about how they were treated in South Africa. As part of the exhibition there are suitcases that symbolise the bags that people carry when coming to South Africa, and also small coffins symbolising the lives that was lost during xenophobia attacks. One of the Katlehong residents, Molly Zulu said, “I feel sorry for fellow Africans who were

victims of xenophobia. There is a need for peace among African people and l think this act should come to an end. There are some foreigners who are doing remarkable things and helping us in starting businesses and they have the right to stay. We want those who are doing bad activities, such as bringing drugs to our country, to leave because they are killing the future of our nation.” Speaking to tame TIMES, Papi Papi, deputy

chairperson of Katlehong Local AIDS Council said they want the community to discuss the issues of migration and on how it affects individuals. “We don’t want to wait until the start of xenophobia attacks. We are educating the community that people don’t have boundaries, only countries have. The shortage of drugs in the clinics must not be blamed on foreigners. Everyone has a right to healthcare, despite their nationality. We had dialogues in order to find a solution.”Mandla Masango, secretary of the Katlehong Community Policing Forum said, “We are teaching people that communication is the key in solving problems. We need to accommodate each other as Africans. Crime is a major challenge; perpetrators are using xenophobia as a tool to steal from foreign nationals. We need to learn from each other in terms of business and skills.”

There are only a chosen few who could follow instructions they received in their dreams and saw it come to fruition. Bulela “Ndyebo” Mokoena is one of the few artists who followed the dream no matter where it took him. His perseverance will soon pay off when he releases his debut Afro Soul album dubbed Ibuyambo (Renaissance) later this year. Speaking to tame TIMES, after dishing a five star performance at Tsholo Hall in Katlehong, Ndyebo attributed his new found fame to a dream he had in 2008.

“In that dream I was under the tree when I heard a voice commanding me to take a knopkierie and a guitar from an old man. The voice further instructed me that my music will heal, comfort and mend broken souls. After that dream, I started frequenting the open field next to Palm Ridge for music practice sessions and learned to play guitar. I also taught myself to write and compose music,” explained Ndyebo. The talented Ndyebo is originally from King Williams Town in the Eastern Cape, but now resides at Palm Ridge in Thokoza. He has completed recording his 13 track album at Jalwali Studio in Thokoza and intends to release it in late December. Songs that are already getting enormous airplay on radios are Humba Juba and Luphelile Uthando. “Hit tracks to look forward to in this album include Ndicela Ungandishiyi, E nyakalletse pelo and Bayocel’, mvula, to name but a few. In my music I’m telling stories and reminding African people that even though they want civilisation, it should be deeply rooted in our African values. My music is about cultural revival so that I could play a role in raising consciousness to fellow Africans,” said Ndyebo. His dream is to perform in collaboration with Selaelo Selota, because he is the first artist to recognise his talent when they first met in Sandton back in 2009. Ndyebo acknowledges the support he gets from his family, while trying to get his rightful spot in the demanding music industry.

For the love of kwaito music

The name Gabriel Mugabe is often associated with politics, but in Katlehong and surrounding townships the name Gabriel “DJ Mugabe” Mhlanga is a symbol of nonstop music and entertainment. This talented disc jockey challenges the myth that Kwaito music is reaching its sell by date stage.He started mixing Kwaito music at a very young age and got his first music break in 1998. “My biggest break came after two years while I was mixing tapes. I then graduated and started playing vinyl while developing my own style of music,” said Mugabe.He took part in the 2001 Hansa DJ competition against talented local DJs and won. Mugabe is renowned for organising various gigs around Kathorus. “Currently I’m working for the Kasi FM breakfast show on weekdays from 6 to 9. I’m also the radio station’s head of production,” said Mugabe.He invited music lovers across Kathorus to join him on 2 November at Isolomzi Place, where he will be performing with the likes of DJ Kgotso, Lawrenzo, Pakiso, Dollar and

many more. Entry is R50 at the door and lucky readers could win themselves two double tickets by answering the following question: What time is DJ Mgabe’s breakfast show scheduled?

It is important that employees know their right to obtain payslips. To this effect, this article will summarise the nitty gritties pertaining to payslips. This right is outlined in the Meibc collective agreements. Is getting a payslip a right or a privilege? Do employers give you a payslip as and when they want or have time? What is the purpose of a payslip? What primary information must be contained in the payslip? When must you receive your payslip? All answers are outlined in the Meibc main agreement.I have specifically selected this topic because we are approaching the end of year period where most companies will be closing and going on holiday for December. The Meibc collective agreement defines how leave pay and leave enhancements are calculated when employees close for holidays at year end.

According to the provision of Meibc’s main agreement clause 8(1)b, it is your right to receive a payslip every time you get paid with no exceptions:

EXTRACT CLAUSE 8(1)b: Every employee shall, on payment, be given a statement showing the name and address of the employer, the name and occupation of the employee, his total earnings, ordinary time and overtime payments, allowances, deductions and the number of shifts accrued towards holiday leave. (1) (b) substituted by Government Notice R 59 of 28 January 2005)This provision clearly shows that you must not just receive a payslip for the sake of it, the payslip must contain the noted vital information. If the payslip does not contain this information, you can discuss it with the employer to have it rectified. In the case that there is failure on the employer’s side to rectify the details of the payslip, then there is no need to approach Meibc to assist in resolving the matter. Note that this information is important. This article is courtesy of Oupa Moshoadiba. He was born and bred in Thokoza. He holds a national Diploma in Metallurgical Engineering obtained from the Vaal University of Technology. In 2001 he joined an engineering company manufacturing automotive wheels as a metallurgist. He was introduced to industrial labour laws through joining one of the powerful trade unions in the country, called Numsa. He served as a shop steward for a lengthy time. He further pursued engineering studies and completed NQF4 Fitting and Turning before joining Metal and Engineering Industries Bargaining Council (Meibc) in 2008. His 5 year stay at Meibc has inspired him to pursue a career in labour law. Meanwhile, he has registered for a postgraduate diploma in Labour Law at the University of Johannesburg for 2014.

Employee’s right to get payslips

Constable Kgabo Ramara from Thokoza, a member of the East Rand flying squad, was awarded with a 2013 Provincial Tracker Nomination certificate.The award is a result of his commended work in tracking down stolen and hijacked cars around Ekurhuleni. “It means a lot to me. It shows that some people recognise our work and efforts. It also motivates us to continue working hard. We are not doing it for Tracker, but for the community. I have recovered an estimate number of about 50 vehicles through investigations and patrols, and recoveries and

arrests in connection with theft and hijacking of the motor vehicles,” said Ramara.He also advised drivers to observe if they are being followed when driving to work, home and to the bank. He said the primary cars targeted by hijackers are VW, BMW, H1 Hyundai, Mercedes Benz, Toyota Fortuners and Hilux double cabs.This is not the first time Ramara is awarded certificates for his good work. In 2007 he was awarded for being part of the best station recovering stolen vehicles, and in 2008 he was also awarded the best crime prevention member. In 2009 he also received a Provincial Tracker Nomination certificate. Ramara won

the Star of the Stars certificate in 2010, under the Gauteng Rapid Response Unit, for the recovery of explosives.

Read before you signMany of us sign documents without reading them, and if all goes well, we can get away with it. However, in a recent court case, Mr Dludlu signed a document with company “A” without a clear understanding of its contents and later discovered that he was liable for debts. He later claimed that he was not bound to the terms of the document as he was not aware of the terms and conditions on the document that he had signed.On the other hand, the court looked at the issue in the context of a unilateral mistake that, “Our law allows a party to set up his own mistake in certain circumstances in order to escape liability under a contract which he has entered. But where the other party has not made a misrepresentation and has not appreciated at the time of acceptance that his offer was being accepted under a misrepresentation, the scope for a defence of unilateral mistake is very narrow, if it exists at all. At least the error would have to be reasonable and it would have to be pleaded.”To determine if the mistake was reasonable, the court considered whether company A was culpable in the mistake, or if company A was blameless, as the misrepresentation and document came from Mr Dludlu’s brother and nephew. The court then considered if there was an obligation on company A to inform Mr Dludlu of the terms to which he signed, but found that “even a cursory glance” at the documents would have alerted Mr Dludlu of what he was signing. Mr Dludlu’s mistake was not reasonable and there was no evidence that company A would have conned him in any way. The message here is clear and simple: read before you rush to pen down your signature.This article was contributed by Thando Damane, who is an attorney by profession.

The current ABSA Premiership Soccer League (PSL) is promising to be a bumpy marathon, as underdog teams are becoming pacesetters in this first phase of the log. Two of the big three teams, Kaizer Chiefs and Mamelodi Sundowns are seated comfortably within the top five bracket of the log.Matsatsantsa a Petori (Supersport) is seated on the summit of the log with 15 points. The three times PSL champion’s recent performance is attributed to the number of signings they made before the beginning of the new season. Coach Cavin Johnson is their motivator. Moroka Swallows is seated comfortably on the second spot of the league, with the same points and number of games

with Supersport. Bidwist Wits is in fourth position, with seven games and with three points behind the league leader. Maritzburg, Amazulu and Platinum Stars are numbers 6, 7 and 8 on the log respectively, with only one point separating the three teams. The new kid on the block, Mpumalanga Aces is at position 9 and University of Pretoria position 10. Free State province teams Bloemfontein Celtics and Free State Stars are on position 11 and 12 respectively. Polokwane City’s 1-0 victory against Mamelodi Sundowns proved that money doesn’t guarantee automatic success for any team competing in the PSL. The Limpopo-based team is on 13th position and they are followed

by Ajax Cape Town. The Cape Town team has amassed six points in the seven games they have played so far. Last season’s second runner-up, Orlando Pirates is 15th in the league due to their demanding CAF Championship League schedule. The Orlando-based team has managed to accumulate four points with numerous catch-up games to play. Coach Manqoba Mngqithi’s sudden departure from the Golden Arrows propelled the Lamontville-based team to the base of the PSL log. The 16 teams campaigning in the PSL have already played 7 or 8 matches each, except for the Pirates who have only played three competitive games.
