STANDERTON – Members of the community claim that water tankers that have been delivering water to the community are poisoning them.

This is the outcry of the people of Extension 7 who have been without running water for more than two years. Stickers on the tanks of the trucks, that carry the water, display “Corrosive.” The tankers, which belongs to a company from Nelspruit called ZMG Watech, delivers water on a contractual basis on behalf of Lekwa Local Municipality.

A member of the community approached Cosmos News saying that people have stomach problems

and that a lot of people in that area are constantly ill. Because of the recalcitrant behaviour of the media spokesperson of Lekwa Local Municipality and because he does not answer questions from Cosmos News, they were not asked for comment.

ZMG Watech was asked for comment and they stated that the trucks are certified to carry drinking water. The sticker, according to them, is to show that the truck carries drinking water which is treated with chemicals to purify the water. A member of the community says that they suspect that there is a deliberate attempt by the municipality not to supply

them with water in order for them to supply contracts to the company from Nelspruit. He said that he suspects that someone is getting a kickback from the company.

The DA says that it is highly irregular and unacceptable that the people of Extension 7 should be without water for this period. They also say that they want a report and investigation into the matter why these trucks are being used.

The Municipal Manager will be asked to immediately terminate the use of these tankers if they pose any danger to the public. Edi

STANDERTON - Keelvol inwoners van Standerton het hulle tot die burgerregte organisasie AfriForum gewend om ’n oplossing vir die slaggate in die dorp te kry.

Onkunde, gebrek aan politieke wil, korrupsie en laksheid is enkele voorbeelde wat munisipaliteite openbaar wat dienslewering kniehalter.

Gat vol, sê AfriForum

Mnr. Hillel Coetzer, voor-sitter van AfriForum se Standerton-tak sê dat hulle deur skenkings van die publiek teer gaan gebruik om self slaggate op te vul. STANDERTON - A 38-year-

STANDERTON - AfriForum se buurtwag in Standerton het nóg ŉ gesteelde vragmotor aan die regmatige eienaar terugbesorg nadat hulle die diewe in samewerking met die SAPD gearresteer het.

Die vragmotor is op 13 September formeel as gesteel by Standerton SAPD aangemeld. ŉ Gesamentlike soektog na die gesteelde vragmotor is die volgende dag deur die SAPD en AfriForum se Standerton-buurtwag van stapel gestuur, met ŉ spesifieke fokus op omliggende plase. Die soektog was egter aanvanklik vrugteloos.

Die plaaslike buurtwag het egter later dieselfde dag inligting ontvang rakende die ligging van die bestuurder van die gesteelde vragmotor, waarna die SAPD ontbied is. Beide die bestuurder en ŉ medepligtige is deur die polisie in hegtenis geneem. Die vragmotor is ook teruggevind.

“Albei beskuldigdes is by die Standerton SAPD aangehou en het op 16 September in die hof verskyn op aanklagtes van motordiefstal en -kaping,” het Hillel Coetzer, AfriForum se takvoorsitter in Standerton, gesê. JD

STANDERTON - Walking in the footsteps of peace apostle and world icon, Mahatma Gandhi, the Rising Sun community in partnership with the Gandhi remembrance organization are hosting a peace walk from Johannesburg to Durban. The 750km walk will be a historic event to honour Mahatma Gandi.

These walkers walked through Standerton on Monday, 21 September where they stayed over and left town on 22 September on their way to Perdekop. Due to the lack of facilities in Perdekop, the walkers returned to Standerton on Tuesday where they slept over once again and took to the road again on Wednesday from Perdekop to Volksrust.

The community is encouraged to be part of this amazing venture which is bound to reignite and promote peace. Community members have the opportunity to either sponsor R10 a kilometre for the full length or only a few legs of the walk. All proceeds will be donated to the Gandhi Trust.

For more information Mr MG Daya can be contacted on 017 7191506 or on 076 1055 101. JD

STANDERTON - More than 200 government low income subsidy beneficiaries from Sinethamba in Dipaleseng Municipality (Balfour) and Sakhile in Lekwa Local Municipality (Standerton) now have decent shelter and a place to call home. This deliverable was realized through various programs of the Department with a combined cost of R22 million. The projects which managed to employ about 70 locals inclusive of youth and women were handed over to beneficiaries by Human Settlements MEC, Ms Violet Siwela last Friday, 18 September.

One of the delighted beneficiaries, Mr Mpho Mokoena (33) said that life became very difficult when his grandmother passed away since she was the one who was helping him. “We are honoured by what our government has done for us this is a dream come true to have a decent home” he said. The

family relies on a disability grant received by Mpho.On the same token, wheelchair-bound Mr Aron Mlotjwa

(57) could not hide his excitement after receiving his house. “This has been our lifelong wish to have a proper shelter and live together. Now we won’t mind the rain when it comes as we used to move from corner to corner trying to dodge the leaking roof. We are proud of the generous act of our government for stepping in to meet our needs where we are failing”, quipped Mr Mlotjwa who lives with his younger brother.

The notable delivery came as a result of the Department’s informal settlements upgrading programme which seeks to eradicate among others; dwellings such as shack houses and the occupation of derelict mud houses. For this financial year the Department has planned to deliver 329 housing units

through various programs at a total budget of R 39 million at Dipaleseng, meanwhile in Lekwa a total of R84 million will be spent to deliver 550 and 111 housing units through the Integrated Residential Development Programme (IRDP) and Informal Settlements Upgrading programmers respectively.

“With partnerships from government, private sector and municipalities, we remain unwavering that our dream of delivering integrated sustainable human settlements will come to fruition” said MEC Violet Siwela during the handover of the houses. The MEC appealed to all municipalities to embrace the recently launched Operation Vuka Sisebente (OSV) model which aims at increasing coordination and communication amongst stakeholders. JD

Johannes 1:16-17 (NLV) – “Uit sy volheid het ons almal ‘n oorvloed genade ontvang. Die wet is deur middel van Moses gegee; die genade en waarheid het deur Jesus Christus gekom.”

Wat beteken die woord genade? Genade beteken God se onverdiende guns en seën. Dit beteken dat jy dit nie kan verdien deur jou dade nie, maar dat dit ‘n geskenk is, uit God se volheid en oorvloed soos Hy dit voor die skepping in Sy goddelike gesag bepaal het.

In die konteks van hierdie skrif is daar ‘n waarheid opgesluit wat jou lewe in alle vorme van slawerny in ‘n lewe van vreeslose vryheid sal verander. In Johannes 8:32 (NLV) sê Jesus vir die Jode wat tot geloof gekom het: “As julle in ‘n noue verbintenis aan my boodskap leef, is julle my egte navolgers; en julle sal begryp wat die waarheid beteken, en die waarheid sal julle vrymaak.”

Die waarheid is, Jesus het gekies om vir ons in die vorm van vlees en bloed hier op aarde te kom sterf sodat ons Sy onverdiende guns in oorvloed elke dag opnuut kan ontvang. Jesus verseker ons in 2 Korintiërs 12: 9 “My genade [onverdiende guns] is genoeg vir jou, want my krag kom juis in swakheid tot volle verwesenliking.”

Is dit nie wonderlik om te weet dat wanneer jy Jesus as jou persoonlike verlosser aangeneem het en Sy kind is, jy vrye toegang het tot Sy genade [onverdiende guns], die waarheid wat jou daagliks laat besef wat ookal vandag op my pad kom, watter uitdagings ek ookal voor te staan kom, Jesus se genade is vir my genoeg en daarom sal ek vrolik wees en my lewe geniet want dit, bring Hom wat vir my gesterf het eer.

In daardie oomblikke wat die vyand jou liefs herinner aan jou swakhede, beledigings uit jou verlede, ontberings, vervolgings en benoudhede kan jy kies om tevrede terug te draai na wat die waarheid is wat deur Jesus gekom het en weet, wanneer ek swak is, is ek juis sterk omdat Jesus in Sy volheid, Sy genade geskenk van oorwinning in my oprig tot voordeel van almal vir Sy glorie.

Uiteindelik sal jy deur jou genade gesindheid ander om jou se harte vir Jesus kan wen, want Sy oorwinning sal deur jou uitstraal en lig bring in hierdie donker gebroke wêreld! – Riani Dreyer

shack was already on fire.She alerted her father, Kleinboy Mabuza

and they immediately got the grandmother out of harm’s way. The fire brigade was summoned and in the meantime, the family tried to fight the fire with buckets of water. The fire brigade arrived later and the flames were doused at about 07:00, but the family lost everything. JD

STANDERTON – The 46-year-old Sipho Dlamini of Sakhile survived a life threaten-ing accident after he was hit by a bakkie in Mbonane Mayisela Street in central town on Friday afternoon last week. According to the cousin of the victim, the two were crossing when the rear end of the bakkie hit Sipho when he passed him. The driver of the bakkie was not even aware of the acci-dent, but was alerted by other pedestrians.

He returned to the scene and phoned the emergency services and police. The ambu-lance arrived on the scene and paramedics stabilised the victim before he was taken to hospital for further treatment. According to the paramedics on the scene, it appears that Sipho might have fractured his leg, but they say only X-rays will reveal the real ex-tent of his injuries. Police are investigating the incident. DM

STANDERTON – Vusi Hlatshwayo (22) was walking along Beyers Naudé Street on Sa-turday, 11 September, at about 17:00 when he was confronted by an unknown man yielding a gun. It is alleged that the robber pointed the gun at Vusi and demanded money and a cell-phone. After robbing the victim, and stealing an undisclosed amount of money the suspect ran away on foot. A traumatised young man went to Standerton Police Station to open a case. An armed robbery case was opened for investigation. Lieutenant Johannes Nhlabathi confirmed that a man was robbed at gunpoint and no arrests have been made yet. Vusi could not be reached for further comment. DM

It is a sad day for Volksrust High School as they mourn the sudden passing of Phumelele Mbatha, a Grade 12 pupil. Phumelele will always be remembered for his full-bodied and infectious laugh and kind-hearted nature. He may no longer be here, but will forever remain in the hearts of every Volkie. VHS extend their condolences to his family and friends. Rest in peace.

STANDERTON - A very annoyed resident of Azalea complained that after nine days of complaining about a blocked sewerage line, of which the manhole is on his stand, nothing has been done yet.

The raw sewage is pushing up into his house and is a health hazard for him and

his family. He even had to take his dog to the veterinary surgeon because it got sick and does not to get better. Cows and goats graze in the lush grass growing in the marsh and spread germs and other diseases.

The area is also an ideal breeding ground for mosquitoes. JD

Riana Steyn, ‘n 2000-matrikulant van Hoërskool Standerton, het op 4 September haar doktorsgraad in PhD-informatika verwerf. Sy woon tans in Pretoria en sal deur Standertonners as Riana Malan – haar nooiensvan – onthou word. Hoërskool Standerton het laat hoor dat dit áltyd ‘n trotse oomblik vir die skool bly om van oud-skoliere te hoor wat in hul verskeie gebiede uitblink.

STANDERTON - Last minute intervention by Standerton SAPS cluster commander, Brigadier CL Lentsoane, on Thursday last week averted a massive march to Eskom Tutuka Power Station. A march was organised by Lekwa Stakeholders Forum and the Standerton Taxi Association to block the roads leading to the Power Station.

This comes after they said that Eskom allowed taxi drivers not associated with the Standerton Taxi Association to commute workers to the plant.

PROVINCIAL - The DA has learned that only seven out of 21 (33%) municipal managers in Mpumalanga comply with the minimum competency levels as set out by the National Treasury’s Municipal Regulations. Furthermore it has been revealed that 12 out of 21 (57%) of Chief Financial Officers (CFO) comply with the minimum competency levels.

This was revealed in a report by the Accountant General on the Municipal Finance Management Act (MFMA) Implementations for March 2015. The Office of the Accountant General promotes and enforces transparency and effective management in respect of revenue expenditure, assets and liabilities of institutions in all three spheres of Government.

The report also reveals that out of 74 senior managers in our local municipalities, only 17 (23%) are deemed to be competent. Such figures do not inspire confidence in the Mpumalanga Government’s ability to deliver services to our people. In fact, it cements the DA’s view that poor service delivery in Mpumalanga is a direct result of the ANC government’s insistence on appointing officials as a reward for political loyalty and not according to their skills. This has led to poor planning and reckless spending of public funds, which hampers service delivery.

With the current status quo, it is no surprise that municipalities in Mpumalanga have accumulated a total of R3,364 billion worth of unauthorised, irregular, fruitless and wasteful expenditure as per the last Auditor General Report. Earlier this year the National Treasury announced that non-compliant officials will be removed by 30 September. (Media statement by James Masango MPL, DA Spokesperson on CoGTA) JD

Massive protest march averted

Both parties back on the negotiation table on Monday, 21 September, at Eskom Club.

On Friday, 18 September, the Standerton Taxi Association was going to block all entries to the power utility, but thanks to the timely intervention by Brigadier Lentsoane who convened an urgent meeting at Standerton SAPS conference room, a solution was made.

Parties agreed for further engagements and appointed Mr David Maretlane, Chairperson of Standerton Community Police Forum, as the chairman of the meeting for the day.

They agreed that a task team must be established to look into the personnel transport issue. DM

ERMELO - Hoërskool Ermelo het Donderdagaand, 17 September, tydens ‘n spoggerige dinee, hul splinternuwe daghuis vir dagleerlinge – Dorpshuis – aan die gemeenskap bekendgestel. Die hoof, mnr Pieter Grobler, se visie om dagleerlinge uiteindelik ‘n permanente fasiliteit te gee wat hulle “huis” gedurende die skoolweek kan noem, is hierdeur met oorweldigende positiewe reaksies van die ouers en dagleerlinge gerealiseer.

Een van die unieke uitdagings vir Dorpshuis is om die verskillende tale en kulture te akkommodeer en om aan elke dagleerling ‘n gevoel van behoort te gee. Die einddoel is om al die dagleerlinge van Hoërskool Ermelo meer aktief betrokke by huisaktiwiteite te kry en om ‘n sterker gevoel van eenheid tussen die leerlinge te bevorder. Hierdie droom vorm dan ook die vertrekpunt van die 2016-dorpshuisleierraad se visie, naamlik ‘Verander om te groei.’

Dorpies het die afgelope paar jaar na die breër Ermelo-gemeenskap met behulp van gemeenskapsprojekte uitgereik. Die fokus vir 2016 gaan egter meer inwaarts wees om die dagleerlinge te bemagtig om hulle plek in die nuwe Dorpshuis volwaardig in te neem en om ‘n trotse Dorpie te wees.

Dorpshuis bied ‘n huis-weg-van-die-huis aan dagleerlinge en sal vanaf 2016 ‘n verskeidenheid pakkette vir dagleerlinge aanbied. Hierdie pakkette poog om dit makliker vir ouers te maak omdat leerlinge na skool van die studiefasiliteite gebruik kan maak, middagetes sal ontvang en aan buitemuurse-aktiwiteite sal kan deelneem sonder om eers huis toe te gaan.

lange toets was op 8 September in Volksrust afgelê en het uit begripslees, taalleer en letterkunde bestaan. Die leerlinge het hierdie toets baie geniet, al was dit ‘n groot uitdaging.

Die skool wil hiermee graag die ATKV en me Erika van der Westhuizen bedank wat hierdie geleentheid aan die leerlinge moontlik gemaak het. JD
