BAKGATLA BA MMAKAU TRIBAL OFFICE VANDALIZED
The Acting Chief Rangwane Jacob
Motsepe responded and said that
all the allegations depicted on the
tribal councils wall are not true, it
is just a group of people who does
not know what they want. “Why
don’t they confront the tribal office and tell us what they want
instead of defacing the office.”
“
We laid a complaint to the Mmakau
Police Station for the graffiti’s painted on the wall, the police then arrested
Mr. Malatse Mpya with his friend Basil
in connection with the vandalizing of
the tribal council. Apparently, the perpetrators had the third accomplice who
is not mentioned.” said the Acting Chief
Rangwane Jacob Motsepe. Rangwane
further said that Mr. Malatse Mpya used
to interrupt the community meetings
and it is not the first time he was arrested. Last time he was arrested was
when him and his cronies went onto the

mountain and demanded to close down
the operation of the mine. He even said
that the tribal council has been elected
long time ago but the only hold back is
by the Department of the Local Government & Human Settlement with
the resolution to put those members
in the list of the Bakgatla Ba Mmakau
Tribal Council. It could be that both
Mr. Mpya and Basil are having personal
issues with the tribal council and are
forced to act out of proportion. The
Chief regard these actions as an act of
jealousy. “Our duty is to guide the community on whether they want business
and sites/land to reside, we come up
with a resolution. “We receive the grants
from the Government and use it accordingly and hand over a report there
off. In terms of votes, we own 60% as
the Royal House which culminate for a
period of five yeas and the community
owns 40%.”

FRONT PAGE
The Mmakau SAPS finally removed the stones, trees and
burned tyres, which were used
by members of the community
to barricade the roads of Ramogodi, Uitviel, Mapetla and Mathataneng in Mmakau.
T
he barricading of roads in the area
happened after residents engaged
and formed a protest for service delivery involving a water shortage. Buses,
taxis, students and workers were stuck
in the poor village and had no chance
of escaping. After five days of stand
still, the Department of Education and
the Mmakau SAPS pleaded with angry
residents to stop with the protest. On
Friday after the protest, the Local Mu-
“I raised him, fed him, paid his
educational fees up until tertiary

T
hese are the strong and sadden
words by a heartbroken disable
and a street hawker Monageng Patrick
Sekati (56) from Mpyatilo section in
Madidi. Sekati told Madibeng Times that
every fortnight together with his mother
they used to send money to his son while
at school and paying his computer studies during his matric year. He further
said that his son Matlhogonolo Ofentse
Motsepe (24) started acting arrogantly
towards his late grandmother after the
passing of his mother Ellenah Madibe
Motsepe, who passed on in 2006.
This is a familiar subject I return to
because recently I’ve had a number of
letters expressing the same bewilderment and sadness. My own reaction
is one of matching confusion, simply
because it’s hard to understand why
these young men treat their parents
so badly. To give just one example of
many, I know of a very sad story about
a child who used to physically abuse
her mother and made her sleep without
food, as we speak, the mother passed
on and the son has got a child with his
younger sister the story happened in
Maboloka.“I started realizing that my
“The graffiti on the wall are a disgrace, we are not tolerating the actions at all. We tried to speak with the
mine (Keeley Granite) and they came
to terms of giving the community
a certain percentage but during the
meeting scheduled there were only four
representatives from the community
that attended, now why complaining?”
ask the Chief. In the interest of the
community it will be better that the
interested people come to the meetings
to listen and not create problems” like
jumping on the tables and making a
shame of the there names. The proper
course will be followed and the correct
representatives will be put into office
at the time. It is said that there is only
one mine in the area and not 4 like the
allegations say. The Department of the
Local Government & Human Settlement will introduce the new Kosi at its
time.

son is doing things that are unpleasant
long time ago when I entered a shack
house next to our main house where
we used to store household materials
such as Tupperware s. I then realized
that some of the items were missing.”
“When confronted, my son denied
stealing the items and said he has got
nothing to do with the missing Tupperwares. I had two cases opened against
my son the last one was in Klipgat (first
case number 24062013 second case
number 69082013) but all of them were
not taken seriously saying that there is
no evidence pointed against him” said
the devastated father Sekati who further
indicated that after the passing of his
wife he only wanted to keep the peace in
the household, but can’t believe his son
turned into a “monster” that he is today.
Mr. Sekati even laid a complain to the
Pretoria North Police Station and the
matter was then referred to the Klipgat
Police Station but never capitalized and
or referred to court. His complains is
that he suspects that the evidence on the
docket has tempered with. With details
I have shown, it is undoubtedly so that
the son has gloomed the family with a
dark cloud and painted an appalling
picture of a family torn apart because
of the harsh, controlling nature of one
individual. Occasionally a reader may
in his opinion point out the fact that
the letter is only one side of the story.
But sometimes I’m overwhelmed by the
heartfelt truth within a case like this,

and wonder what possible justification
the ‘other side’ could offer. Judging
by the way the family is surviving, Mr.
Sekati is the bread winner in the household surviving by being a street hawker
and possibly by the disability grands he
receives every month. The death of Mr.
Sekati’s mother Norah Mariam Motaung (74) came as a shock to the entire
family as many questions were raised
on how it has happened that she just
died in the house alone. Apparently, the
Mrs. Motaung was found dead in the
house on the 31 March 2013.
According to Mr. Sekati, his mother
was found laying on the floor by her
face and had a bleeding scare on her
forehead as if she was forcibly and
intentionally pushed on the ground by
someone. “Later after the death of
my mother, my Identity document, my
mothers ID and death certificate went
missing and also my son disappears.”
“All I am asking is for him to bring back
those documents because they will never
benefit him whatsoever. I haven’t had
a conversation with my son in for years,
I don’t know where he is. I pray for
him every single day, that he find some
peace and some happiness. That’s all
that I want from them. I easily could
have fallen down on the ground. I
refuse to be defeated by the situation.”
“I don’t think our relationship can ever
be mended,’ she says. ‘Our personalities clash and we are simply not good

aggravation in my life. I have moved on
and I will never go back, all I need from
him is my documents” said Mr. Sekati
with tears rolling down. As a father of
three children, I can only begin to imagine how wretched Mr. Sekati must be
feeling at this stage. Even by her daughter’s own admission, her sin wasn’t
egregious. The estrangement happened
must have happened way after Matlhogonolo engaging with some more
untrustworthy friends in the area.
My wife divorced me and she took all her things. We had to share our
wealth and I could not talk to her. She was with another man. I love my wife
a lot and I tried everything a lot and I tried everything to bring her back.
I went to doctors to get help but i kept paying without success. I was sad
and lost hope. But one day I was on internet and read about PROF. SANGA
who helped many people with similar problems. I called him and we met.
He asked me for her photo and two rings. I was told too to pray for 5 days
calling her name. After only 5 days, I received a surprise call from my wife
asking to meet me. We met and resolved our differences. I was so happy
and we are now happily married again. She loves me like when we fell in
love for the first time and I love her that much too. I owe my happiness to
PROF. SANGA. You are not like others. You never asked me for even a cent
till I saw results. You will receive many many blessings. I advice all of you
out there who want to bring back lost love in their lives and win court
cases to make use of this man. He is the only powerful with healing gift, yet
honest.

Police arrived at the scene found the

of the incident.
Accordingly this incident trumps as certainly the most dangerous as one of the
Department staff was savagely bitten
on the arm as she entered the building
where the leopard was hiding and one
victim was slightly injured and is in a
stable condition. Part of the reason for
the dangerous circumstance was that
the animal was cornered and confined

becoming even more dangerous owing
to the ever increasing numbers of interested parties that came to investigate as
well as onlookers. In a dramatic encounter, the Department’s back up staff
joined hands with the South African

Man found hanging
30 October 2014
o
The Madibeng Municipality has stolen R2.2 million hypothetically???
The DA is in possession of a
leaked Internal Audit Report
for Madibeng Local Municipality in the North West on its unauthorized expenditure for the
2013/2014 financial year. The
report found inadequate internal
controls in place for management
to mitigate risks involved with
finances of the Municipality.
T
he report found: Non-compliance
with supply chain management
rules, budget procedures, Treasury Office Policies and Procedures; Inadequate
division of duties by financial officers;
Insufficient and ineffective independent
review functions; and Inadequate and
incomplete audit trail documentation.
Further findings were recorded as
follows: It took 19 min: 13 sec. for a
Financial Officer to channel off R2.2
million without a single signature or
approval;Inflating of prices to influence tender awards; Payments to service
providers for services that were never
rendered; and Fraud. In light of these
findings, the DA calls on the Minister of
Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs (COGTA), Pravin Gordhan, to place Madibeng under Section
136 (1)(b) administration as the financial
crisis in Madibeng is untenable and residents are suffering the consequences.
“We further call for the necessary criminal and disciplinary action in terms of
the Municipal Finance Management
Act to be initiated without delay.” The
Madibeng Municipality has stolen R2.2
million hypothetically and created the
situation otherwise. Last week, the DA
leaked another Madibeng secret report
showing catastrophic failures in the water supply in Madibeng and the systemic
failures in water supply countrywide.
There was another five day protest in
October this year (2014) in Mmakau
near Mothutlung whereby two members of the community where arrested
by the police and released on bail. At
present, several smaller municipalities
are struggling to operate and maintain
their services infrastructure in a costeffective and sustainable manner. The
end result is predictable: rapid deterioration of assets, followed by catastrophic
component failure, and regular and
prolonged disruptions in service delivery. The initial investigation confirmed
that municipal service delivery was
totally ineffective and in certain areas
non-existent, especially with regard to
essential services such as refuse removal,
sewerage conveyance, and treatment
and supply of potable water. At the
time, one of the major concerns was the
discharge of raw sewerage, overflowing from non-functional pump stations
and wastewater treatment plants, into
the river systems and dams that supply
water to other local authorities located
in the downstream catchment areas.
The conclusion reached was that the
poor condition of water and sanitation infrastructure could be as a result
of; insufficient funding allocation for
the rehabilitation and/or replacement
of components that have reached the
end of their design life inadequate
maintenance budgets, which could be
attributed to the municipality’s limited
income base. A non-compliance with
existing health and safety legislation the
current infrastructure life cycle scenario
can be described as “run to destruction”
because of a total lack of routine and
preventative maintenance. The unfortunate outcome is premature asset failure
to remove screenings at sewer pump
stations and at the inlets to wastewater
treatment works results in downstream
blockages, clogging of pump impellers
and eventual mechanical breakdowns.
Failure to respond to sewer blockages
within a reasonable time leads to the
discharge of raw sewage into sensitive natural environments. Failure to
respond to water pipe bursts promptly
result in considerable water losses and
lengthy interruptions in water supply
because of supply chain bottlenecks.
Water purification chemicals at remote
water treatment plants are often in short
supply, resulting in poor drinking water
quality due to an acute shortage of
funds for O&M, repairs to a defective
pump unit is often postponed until the
second (standby) unit fails. (It is common practise to install pump units in
both water and sewer pump stations
in a duty/standby configuration, to
ensure continuous operation should one
unit become defective.) The inevitable
outcome is prolonged interruptions in
service delivery. And consequential
inconvenience to local residents, as well
as health risks associated with sewage
spills the municipality’s asset register is
not up to date, which makes it difficult
to trace missing plant and equipment,
and compile maintenance plans.
RESPONSE OF THE
MUNICIPALITY
The allegations that were published on several newspapers
about internal audit findings
were unfounded and untrue. The
municipality would like to confirm that it is in possession of
the leaked document and it still
remains the internal document of
the municipality. This report was
an Ad hock unauthorised expenditure report which was not supposed to be sent out to the media
or the public before proper internal processes were finalised.
Madibeng Municipality is in the
process of investigating the allegations contained in that internal
report. It is highly regrettable that
the report had to be leaked before
internal processes were finalised.
Should the municipality find any
employees guilty of leaking confidential internal documents,
disciplinary action will be taken
against such officials. Upon finalisation of the internal investigation
the report will serve at the Internal Audit committee, the Mayoral
committee and Council and decisions will be taken in order to
remedy all findings.

and as the farm owner he did his best to
After a long stay in the cold
fridges in the mortuary, a fair
resolution is met, a resolution of
a dispute over how the body of
Anna Matshidiso Molefe will be
transported to her hometown in
Botswana for proper burial.
T
his situation left the entire family
stranded and concerned for almost
three weeks. Then finally thanks to Mr.
J.W Roos, the owner of the farm in
Klipkop where Matshidiso used to stay
with friends, help sort the situation out.
Matshidiso Molefe (47) died on the 10
October 2014 on a farm after a long
illness. She was kept in Boikanyo funeral
under takers mortuary for two weeks.
The mortuary then demanded that in
order for them to release the body for
burial, the family must settle the amount
of about R16 000. (R11 600 when the
mortuary transports the body or
R8 850 if the family takes the body with
their own transport). According to the
brother in law, Mr. Kgaboetsile Molefe,
says the mother of seven left Botswana
a long time ago (couple of years back)
to look for employment here in South
Africa.
Later this year (2014) they were told that
Matshidiso is very ill, and she is situated
in a farm somewhere in Klipkop. Neighbors and friends informed the family
that the deceased, Matshidiso, died
working for Mr. Roos and apparently
she has been working on the farm for
over a year. The farm owner Mr. Roos
confirmed with Madibeng Times that
Matshidiso was indeed in severe pain
help where he could. Mr. Roos stated,
“I want to correct the statement that we
hear from individuals in the area, the
deceased was not my employee, but she
was staying on the farm with friends.
She got very ill and together with my
son we took her to hospital twice this
year for her treatment.” When asked
on how he will assist in the burial, he
explained, “In an out most good will,
I will help where I can to make sure
that the body of (Annah) goes back to
Botswana for proper burial and may her
soul rest in peace.” said the farm owner,
Mr. Roos.

Mr. Roos further told Madibeng Times
that when one of his employees or their
family members died on the farm, he
fully supported the family with cash and
sometimes he contributed with one or
two cattle for the occasion. Mr. Molefe
further concluded by giving credits
where it needed. He said he appreciated the effort made by a member from
the Royal House in Bethanie Mr. Thabo
More, the ward councilor of ward 14
Clr. Makgale every individual who
played a part in the gesture including
the community’s paper Madibeng Times.
“People here in South Africa do help
one another, I really admire the way
the situation was conducted and I am
thrilled that the spirit of my sister in law
will finally rest in peace. To Mr. Roos,
even though you did not want to help at
first we appreciate what you did.” said
Mr. Molefe. Out of a good heart, Mr.
Roos paid the entire R12 000 that was
required by Boikanyo funeral undertakers for transport to Botswana. Annah

Take your
Municipality to
the Consumer
Protection Act
With the new Municipal Executive Mayor Clr. Jostina Mothibe
energetic performance we are
expecting lots. She is trying to save
the sinking municipality? It is
not known whether the Madibeng
Municipality residents should be
worried of waiting for another 20
years of democracy to find services in their area.
E
arly on, on the 17 October 2014,
AfriForum released a Municipal
Consumer Guide in Cape Town which
will enable municipal consumers to submit various service delivery complaints
themselves, which include incorrect municipal bills, no waste removal, potholes,
contaminated drinking water and unreliable electricity supply, without having to
undergo a long, costly court process.
The civil rights organization won a court
case in 2013 against the Minister of
Trade and Industry in which the court
ruled that all municipalities are subjected to the Consumer Protection Act.
If there is any challenge with service
delivery from the seniors above, with
confidence the council of Madibeng
should be the ones submitting various
service delivery complaints to the Consumer Guide.

Brits Police Station Must Understand the Urgency
The crime statistics show that
the crimes committed in Brits
are above 5000 to 6000 cases each
year, and this year (2014), the
statistics indicated that the trend
stayed the same.
T
here has not been a substantial
reduction of crime in Brits. What
is the Executive Mayor of Madibeng
Clr. Jostina Mothibe doing about the
performance rendered by the Brits
station commander Brigadier Kgoroba
in combating crime in the area? Is the
Mayor going to intervene; in assuring crime prevention in Madibeng? At
present, the station commander’s assets
have proved insufficient in tackling
crime. And they have not implemented
preventative measures to reduce crime
in Madibeng; is the Municipality requesting extra police for Madibeng?
The Question remains, are Madibeng
residents safe? Criminals who are committing crimes on a daily basis, walks
scot-free? Over 450 people have lost
their lives in Brits in the past 3 years
due to violent crime.
Madibeng communication officer
Lebogang Tsogang reiterated and
said, “Please note that the SAPS is a
state organization that does not report
to the municipality. All the questions
relating to their service and conduct
of the Police, please revert them to the
SAPS communication unit for response.
The municipality has a good working
relationship with the Police and we
believe they will be better placed to

Under present circumstances, the population
of residents in Brits is
growing rapidly, yet Brits
SAPS have no plans of
increasing the number
of officials. So far, the
Brits SAPS has shown no
action plan to deal with
criminal elements such as
farm attacks, mob killings
(vigilante), robbery, house
breaking, rape, women
and children abuse to
name the few.
In the past financial year
1,200 detectives resigned Brits SAPS
from the police, leaving a Brigadier
hole, that is going to have Kgoroba
a big impact on the fight wearing
against crime, say experts. netball
costume.
Meanwhile, a senior
police officer told parliament’s portfolio
committee on policing that many detectives had left because of misconceptions
about changes to their pension benefits.
Police seniors further say these misconceptions over government pension
payouts were behind the resignation of
1,060 detectives in the past year.
These were based on rumours that
public servants would no longer receive
gratuities after retirement. There were
reports of other public servants, including teachers and nurses, resigning
because of this misconception.
Too many dockets, too few detectives
This is a huge problem. Detectives are
already working on between 70 and 140
dockets each a month; compare this
to the international norm of about 25
dockets. We are now approaching the
Christmas season, and members of the
public are now living in fear of what
will happen to them while doing their
shopping spree with these criminals
who know that for a policeman to arrive
at a scene will take 30 minutes; these
numbers need to change to 5minuts to
be realistic to catch the perpetrators.
Research statistics further indicates
that instead of the criminal activity to
depreciate for the better, it increases
for the worst. In everyday life in Brits,
thugs take a life of an ordinary citizen,
and this is gaining momentum due to
the fact that the police visibility is not
implemented. The number of police
officials in Brits is less convincing, and
makes the job of the police more difficult to constantly deal with the increasing criminal activities taking place on a
daily basis. The police visibility in the
communities around Madibeng must be
a fact not a favour.
Police should in most cases be alert and
visible to prevent crime from happening, and to make it difficult for criminals
to do their dirty work. In 2012 the total
crime statistics reported to be 6169,
year 2013 the total number was 5600
and this year (2014) October the total
number is 5362, which is still to high.
The armed robberies have a major impact on the situation of crime activities
with 440 in 2012, 400 in 2013 and 291
October 2014 this stops businesses doing business. It is advisable to the Local
Municipality of Madibeng to further
research about the services of the police
station and their statistics in due course
nissan
for more updates.
We want some serious intervention in
preventing crime in its tracks!
Our topic for this issue is: What is
the Executive Mayor of Madibeng
Clr. Jostina Mothibe doing about
the performance rendered by the
Brits station commander Brigadier Kgoroba in combating crime
in the area?
Should the Mayor intervene in
assuring crime prevention in
Madibeng?
Is the Municipality in need of
extra police for Madibeng? Are
Madibeng residents safe?

GETTING
READY FOR THE 2016
MUNICIPAL ELECTIONS
representation (PR), based on the prothe community. They even said he have as a reliable
Less than ten months to go before the next national municipal
elections in South Africa. Membership of the Party is renewed
on 1 July each year and this is a
reminder and an invitation in
this regard. There is a two year
consecutive membership requirement to be a candidate for the
Party and to meet this constitutional requirement we are suggesting that early membership for
2016 be done simultaneously with
the 2015 membership renewal.
M
ost municipalities are divided into
areas called wards. And, in most
municipalities, there are two ways of
being elected as a councilor. The first
way is to be elected as a ward councilor. A ward councilor is an official
elected to represent an area (or “ward”)
on council. This councilor can represent a political party, can stand as an
independent candidate or represent a
local association such as the Ratepayers
Association. The candidate who receives
the most votes in a ward is elected as the
ward councilor.
This is called the ‘first past the post’
electoral system. If the ward councilor
leaves office for any reason, such as
resigning, a by-election must be held to
elect a new councilor. Ward councilors
make up half of the representatives
elected to the council. The other half
are elected as party representatives
through a system called proportional
portion (percentage share) of votes their
political party receives in the election.
They are known as PR councilors.
Because ward councilors are elected
by their wards they are more directly
accountable to their communities than
PR councilors who are more directly
accountable to the political party that
put them on the list. Municipalities that
have ward councilors may establish
ward committees. These committees
should be a tool for the participation
of communities in local government.
District municipalities are not divided
into wards.
failed to sort out the water and electricity issues for several households in the
community. They highlighted that Clr.
Sefudi also failed to help the Mokua
family who have been sharing one toilet
for years and are without electricity.
Mrs. Ruth Diale of Masenkeng section
have complained to the councilor about
the RDP foundation that was created
since 2008 and the councilor could not
act to resolve the matter. Oukasie ward
13 resembles a dump site with sewerage
running through the streets and
cabbages dumped all over. Lindelani
residents have lost hope in their quest
of finding new land for themselves and
believed that they will stuck in the jungle for the rest of their lives. They even
wished for the new councilor to consider
their area and bring change.
Of the district councilors, 60% are appointed by their local municipalities and
the remaining 40% are elected directly
by the voters based on PR. Voters in
these district municipalities cast three
votes: one vote for a ward candidate,
one vote for a party on the local council,
and one vote for a party on the district
council. Local government elections are
different from provincial or national
elections, as national and provincial
elections only use the PR system where
voters vote only for a political party
and not for individual candidates. It
is alleged that ward 13 residents are
constantly lost hope in their current
ward councilor Clr. Jack Sefudi who
served as a ward councilor for the whole
term. Members of the community
allegedly accuses him of the following;
Of being rude, arrogant and insulting
when addressing challenges involving
Unemployment have taken its toll in the
area even though the councilor is applying favor in hiring and firing of desperate workers for projects in the community. In that case, members of the
community highlighted that chances of
Clr. Sefudi of being reinstated to his position are very minimal. On the contrary, the following candidates are urged by
community members to contest for the
ward 13 councilor only if the party wins
the elections and they are; Jabulani Pitse
who is the ward committee member,
Tshepo Mokate who is a community
member and a member of the African
National Congress and now elected as
the CLO and Thapelo Matlou known
member of
the community by his
neighbors.

Heritage of the Tswana people in
North West
Workers out for work for more than a
month without any salary
As one person told me, we have
become more and more westernized in our culture. The African
culture today has evolved; what is
our culture? …We can say dance.
What is our food? …Stories of our
past? …Costume? …Language?
N
ow, if we take our language as it
has evolved to the time, the Tswana language has had a very-very wide
influence in the North West culture.
From Botswana down up until Johannesburg, Swaziland, Free State they
speak a variety of different dialects of
the Tswana language. Today we can
say in this time that our culture as the
Tswana people has differentiated itself
and developed itself into westernized
project. Our cattle farming has become
feed farming, our houses have changed
from cow dung to cement houses, the
roofs are no longer made out of straw
grass packed together, our nomadism
of living out in the wilderness with our
cattle and herding them is no longer as
big cultural change has evolved in the
Tswana people in he last fifty years.
From the time of independence of our
surrounding countries – Botswana, Mozambique, Zimbabwe, Namibia – and
now South Africa also having acquired
its independence from ex-colonial powers and a democratically driven country,
our westernized society has transformed
itself into a homogeneous society of
multiple cultures. Tswana people living
in the North West are identified (as we
can say) by our language. Our language
Recently South Africa’s largest
union agreed and succeeded to
end a strike commenced on the
1st of July 2014 in Madibeng area.
Upon which a new wage increase
should have been implemented.
T
he strike run for a period, according to NUMSA Regional Secretary Mr. Jerry Morulane, the Minister
intervened and NUMSA ultimately
secured an agreement. The workers
were required to return to work. When
they did so, confusingly, one of the
employers’ associations involved in the
talks said it did not accept the deal and
would lock out workers who had been
on strike. Workers were told by their
employers that they were not allowed
back onto the premises. More than 70
members of the National Union of
Metalworkers of South Africa (NUMSA) downed tools on July to demand
higher wages, halting production at
Machinery contractors, S.O.S and
Mega Roller.
A way of setting up a fire by the
BaTswana people.
is our culture and a lot has changed in
our language; our language has acquired Afrikaans words, Dutch words,
English words and it has grown and so
has our costume changed – the way we
dress, the way we understand what is
proper and what is right. And, to the
society that is living today to allow our
children to have a future we have to
take into consideration the changes of
each generation and each generation
with its new technology of evolution.
What we can say is my child fifty years
ago we could expect of him to become
a cow hoarder, today I can expect them
to become a clerk in a bank or working
for a company becoming CEO or just
a normal ombudsman in one of the
various positions that are available in
the mines, in small industry, in a light
industry, in a food processing production and farming. There are – out there
– numerous possibilities for each person
to become part of our culture and our
way of living.
The National Employers’ Association
of South Africa (NEASA), according to
Mr. Morulane decided to lockout the
workers from three companies mentioned above, despite the fact that the
strike had been resolved. On the 16
October 2014, NUMSA supported by
Federation COSATU and SANCO the
civic organization called an intervention meeting of all shop-stewards and
affected employees from three compa-
nies to engage in an absolute strategic
way forward. The meeting was about
one highlighting the plight of the workers to nearby communities and also
to strategize on how NUMSA should
make a move forward as an organization, so that these workers can return
back to work. The meeting took place
in Primindia Hall in Madibeng. Local
Municipality was also called specifically
to intensify NUMSA’s way forward with
those employers. The members of the
organization and the workers picketed
from all three companies, to tell those
employers to open up the gates. “When
we engage again with them and they do
not want to open the gates, we will mobilize with other community members
across Madibeng to join us in the battle
we are facing.
If it calls for us to close down all of
these companies so be it.”
“It is not our intentions to close down
these companies but with the attitude
displayed, we will be left with no option
but to insure that those companies are
closed. NUMSA has tried their level
best to help them.” “We have provided
to them with vouchers of R2000 each
so that they can be able to put something on their tables even though we
know that the money is not enough.
But the most important thing is to make
sure that they get back to work.” said
NUMSA Regional Secretary Mr. Jerry
Morulane.

nsects and damp can damage wood
over time. To prevent that damage,
wood is often treated with pesticides.
Poles are like plants they absorb water
easily and fast if not treated accordingly. In other words, planting untreated
poles in concrete cement is total incompetence. This has gone too far, who is
L.J Lousa Construction? Lets recap,
the company belongs to a well-known
Mr. Buti Molokoane the brother to the
former Madibeng Municipal Mayor
Sophy Molokoane. Well, the company
has been seen planting poles with concrete cement and this is an irresponsible
trend. It is alleged that this could be one
of the stunts by the service provider to
become greedy, by creating another job
of planting the beautiful lawn that was
deliberately destroyed by the contractor,
as a means of creating another wasteful
expenditure of tax payers money.
Consider using paint, varnish or some
other type of sealant on treated wood
as a barrier between the chemical and
the surrounding environment. Wood
is treated to prevent its destruction by
wood-decaying organisms. Treating
wood with the appropriate preservative increases its service life. The wrong
choice made possible by the contractor
L.J Lousa Construction owned by Mr.
Molokoane, is that it is alleged that he
neglected to apply the correct measures
of treatment on the poles as a result of
saving the costs, and this is irresponsible
decision made by him. Why treat wood?
Deterioration of wood in use is commonly caused by decay fungi, certain insects (including termites and carpenter
ants), other organisms (marine borers),
and weathering. Of these, decay fungi

Police campaign to stop criminals
Our Police in Brits continued
squeezing crime to almost zero
with the “Stop Buying Second Hand Goods Campaign”
which was held on Thursday
(16/10/2014) between 10am and
2pm in Brits CBD.
T
he campaign is one of the most
effective crime prevention mechanisms utilized in addressing crime in
the community. This was conducted
through a motorcade operation. The
campaign was basically an initiative
from the Community Police Forum in
conjunction with the South African Police Service, Human Settlement Public
Safety and Liaison, the Department
of Justice, the Traffic Department,
Social Development, local Government and the Health department. This
campaign resulted from the daily crime
reports related to stolen second hand
goods identified in the area of Brits
CBD(hotspot) where goods are stolen
through housebreaking, robberies and
theft. After which the suspects sell the
stolen property for a reduced price at
the scrap yards or to the community.
During the campaign pamphlets were
distributed to the community members,
especially containing Second Hand
Goods information (eg.safety tips), and
other pamphlets from government
stakeholders, which addressed general
crime. Although the campaign was successful, it is not the first and last operation to be conducted. There is still going to be other planned operations and
endeavours to reduce crime. Since the
festive season has almost arrived, the
campaign is also extended to forewarn
and urge members of the public to refrain from buying and dealing in second
hand goods without legal procedures.
The reason being is, because anyone
who may be found in possession of
stolen property is subjected to arrest
regardless of not being involved in
the stealing of the property found in
his/her possession. This is executed
in terms of new amended Act No 6
of 2009 April. Therefore it is imperative that members of the community
must be aware of this crime and support police to stop crime by contacting Brits Police Station on 012 381
6000/82/78/77 or 10111(toll-free). In
his response (Warrant Officer) Mpeile
Talane told Madibeng Times that there
are procedures which must be followed
before one can buy second hand goods,
because it is illegal to buy these goods
from anybody without the correct
procedures. He further explained, “We
understand the fact that there are many
vigilante attacks in the communities

campaign.
especially in Oukasie, which is why the
police are not promoting those attacks.
It is against the law, no one has the
right to take anyone’s life, rather call
the police for help.” said the Corporate Communication of South African
Police Service in Brits (Warrant Officer)
Mpeile Talane.

1.34 m3). Cart-aways are usually pulled
behind a pick-up truck and batched
from smaller batching systems. The
mixing trailer system is popular with
rental yards and building material locations, who use them to supply readymix to their regular customer base. A
concrete mixer (also commonly called
a cement mixer) is a device that homogeneously combines cement, aggregate such as sand or gravel, and water
to form concrete. A typical concrete
mixer uses a revolving drum to mix the
components. For smaller volume works
portable concrete mixers are often used
so that the concrete can be made at the
construction site, giving the workers
ample time to use the concrete before
it hardens. An alternative to a machine
is mixing concrete by hand. Mixing
can be done manually in a large plastic
tub or wheelbarrow, or in a rotating
portable cement mixer. However, not
suitable to be prepared on the ground
let alone on the decorated lawn because
it eventually can permanently destroy
the entire lawn for this purpose and
prevent it from growing again. The
ordeal happening in Madibeng by the
so-called construction company having
to mix the substance on the lawn is a
total disgrace and inexperience gesture
by the workers.
Our topic for this issue is: Is

ccording to the residents living
closer to the mast light, a maintenance company came three weeks ago
to fix the high mast light. As usual,
the light was brought down, the light
holder which consists of six bulbs had
only three bulbs functioning at that time
it was brought down for repair. After
they brought down the light, the maintenance company called Morubitsi only
removed the bulbs from the Apollo light
and left the entire ream and the cables
hanging loose for thieves to help themselves. The negligence of the contractor
poses as danger to the residents and the
kids. “I urge the company responsible
to come back and finish what they have
started because I cannot sleep every
night with these criminals climbing on
top of my house wanting to cut off the
remaining cables.” said a resident. “Our
area is now a robbery hot spot with
criminals enjoying hanging around work
right in the dark because we do not have
light anymore. At least the three bulbs
have been slowing the criminals.

The ultimate wedding-bells of
Papie and Ntswakie Sebeho
There may be plenty of fish in the
sea, but Papi Sebeho proved that
he has caught the best fish in the
sea, and it calls for a celebration.
It’s been a busy week!
S
ummer never ends. The combination of the superb surroundings
and fantastic weather allows for memorable outdoor ceremonies overlooking
mountain ranges, vineyards or even the
ocean. Lunch weddings are a guaranteed hit. Everyone inherits traditions,
and in South Africa where cultures
and races come together in a stunning blend, can be seen in a wedding
ceremony. The wedding ceremony in
South Africa
is a crossroads
where a couple undergoes
lengthy preparations at an
early age, and
a possible
mix of ethnic
backgrounds,
to build on as
a new family.
One proof
of equality
among races is
this tradition
of literally jumping over a broom while
drums are being played.
It isn’t as simple as it sounds because
some of these brooms used are dazzling with precious stones, ribbons,
and elegant flowers. Many have come
to witness these prosperous weddings,
commenced right in the heart of
Garankua township, where the mar-
ried couples are firmly residing. As with
other cultures, the men buy engagement
rings for proposing marriage. And aside
from the usual exchange of rings at the
ceremony, African tradition requires
that the couple have their hands tied
together using a cloth or grass. Papie
Sebeho tied a knot after considering Ntswakie to become his lawful wife. They
both got married in a white traditional
wedding. This celebration happened
in the presence of their children Kutlwano and Pokello, families, friends and
church members on the 27 September
2014.
The wedding took place in Zone 9, and
beforehand the couple had a prayer
session at
their church
(Roman
Catholic),
after which
they invited God in
their whole
proceedings.
Later after
the exchange
of vows,
they dedicated with
prayer their
marriage
by lighting one candle resembling the
Catholic tradition. Finally, the most
organized wedding commenced, and
everybody “ululating” when the bride
and the groom entered the church
wearing a sophisticated wedding gown
and suit for the big moment, while the
bride maids and the bride grooms were
dancing behind them.

Elections just around the corner, Mr.
Moloto also known as Ronny formed
a new political party that will contest
the 2016 Local Government Elections.
The party will be serving the interest of
the communities within the vicinity of
Madibeng. According to the Campaign

Madibeng receive proper service delivery, such as clean water and reasonable
electricity bills (flat rate for all Madibeng

improved and employment will also be a
priority to the community of Madibeng.
“The Independent Party (IP) is concerned about the lack of service delivery
in Madibeng.”
“Unemployment is too high but the IP
believes that they will reduce unemployment by 95% in Madibeng communities, reason being that they have a plan
to do so. Residents in Madibeng have
been promised by their government a
better life for all but they are receiving
nothing out of that.” said Moloto. He
further said that the Independent party
believes that when they receive power
and take over Madibeng in 2016, all
communities in Madibeng will get the
better life for all and taste the future
of the freedom the country is talking about. Meanwhile, members of
the community across Madibeng told
Madibeng Times that the newly established organization is just a fly-by-night
organization, and many came and died
before they even existed. “I find it hard
to believe that the newly established political party will indeed do some changes
in Madibeng because this municipality is already rotten. It is like jumping
inside the river knowing that there are
crocodiles inside waiting to chow you.”
said Mr. Kabelo Moloi. Sipho Khutso
gave the new party a credit and said, “I
think the only way South Africans can
bring down the ruling party (ANC) is
by small new parties being established.
