RESIDENTS of of ward 15which consistsof Emaqeleni, Unit 2, Unit 18, Fedsem,VietnamandBerrutionThursdaystaged

a protest march to Wayne’s quarry and de-manded to benefit from its existence.

Residents who spoke to Echo said that al-though the quarry has been existing for such along time, community members have neverbenefited anything from it, except bearing thescars of its disastrous nature.

Speakingonbehalf of the community,ward15 South African National Civic Organization(Sanco)member JeanetteMolefe said: “Weareworried about our safety, as sometimes stones

that are produced there, break our windowsand damage our houses. Most of our houses,especiallyinUnit18,havecracksallover,whichalso decreases their value. Quarries produceexpensive stones which generate a lot of mon-ey, but as communitymemberswe have neverbenefited anything. There is a high unemploy-ment rate, and our youth can benefit a lotthrough learnerships. We demand bursariesforouryouth so theycanalso learnabout theseexpensive stones”.

Others raised health concerns, saying thatthey have developed diseases because of dust.The quarry’s management was given sevendays to respond.

Quarry manager Mohammed Ali said: “Weare engaging with the councillor and wardcommittee members on the issue.

ECHO

THEEconomicFreedomFighterspartyhasstartedselling itself to the South African voters but itdoes not have its own policies. Instead it copied

and pasted the ANCYL’s policies which are directlydrawn from the freedom charter.

In simple terms, Floyd Shivambu and Julius Malemastole ANC policies and made them their own.There is a lot I can say about Malema and his party

but the first obvious one is that he is not to be trustedbyanyone;notevenhisclosefriends.Malemachangeshis mind like the Cape Town sky changes its weather.Who would forget when Malema stood in front of thecountry through the media, he always excites, tellingus that Thabo Mbeki was this country’s biggest prob­lem? Mbeki was cast by him, called him names andmade him an enemy of the people.Not even four years after that we were told by the

same man that Mbeki was the greatest man that everlived. He worshipped him and thanked him for whathe achieved in his administration simply because ofhis hate for Zuma. Zuma, the man he confessed hislove for, was later said to be the worst leader this coun­try has ever had and our biggest mistake; a man he(Malema) was made to believe by his friends and themedia to have put in power in the Polokwane.I simply cannot trust Malema because he changes his

mind like a child in a toy­store.The media and some within the ANCYL during his ten­ure made his head big. They made him believe thathe made Zuma. That he gave Zuma to us South Afri­cans, making him our president. Thus he now throughthe same media that made his head big, apologisefor giving us Zuma.Malema did not give us Zuma. Zuma gave himself to

us the people. Zuma gave himself to South Africawhen he joined the ANC at the age of 16 and later be­came an active member of the ANC’s armed wing Um­khonto Wesizwe at the age of 22. Zuma continued tohand himself to the ANC and South Africa when hewas arrested in 1963 and sent to Robben Island wherehe was to spend the following 10 years. He selflesslyre­established ANC underground structures in Natalbetween 1974 and 1975. Zuma continued to hand him­selftotheANCandSouthAfricawhenheworkedhandin hand with Thabo Mbeki in Swaziland and Mozam­bique exiled by the apartheid government later heal­ing the wounds of the Soweto Uprising youth of 1976that were taking refuge in those countries in 1976. Inthe same year Zuma handed himself to the ANC Na­tional Excecutive Committee. In 1980 Zuma furtherdeepened his commitment to the organisation andheaded the ANC’s Intelligence Department. Malema

would later be born in 1981; 23 years after Jacob Zumajoined and worked for the ANC.

Malema’s contribution to the liberation strugglewould later be illegally taking down National Party(NP) posters in the 1994 elections.While he was taking down and tearing NP posters,

Zuma was working hand in hand with ANC leaders likeNelson Mandela, Mbeki and Walter Sisulu in the nego­tiations and the drafting of the South African consti­tution. After the country’s first democratic election,when Julius was only 14 years, Zuma became theANC’s chairperson in 1994 and MEC for Economic Af­fairs and Tourism in KZN. To get to my point; JacobZuma did not need Julius to get the presidency of theANC and South African government.He has been working and earned enough credentialsto get these positions since he joined the ANC fromhis early age of 16.This point would later be proven fact in Mangaungwhen Zuma won with a landslide victory againstKgalema Montlante when Malema was history.Zuma is 100 times more than the man, leader and

strategist Malema is.I know, many of you will compare Zuma with Malema.You will ask: why complain about Malema in theGupta and Nkandla days?Government scandals happen everywhere; they hap­pen in America, president Obama has his own scan­dals. They happen in UK, in China; all governmentshave their own scandals. We don’t want them, wehate them but they are there; they will always occur.One needs to ask themselves then how many scan­

dals would occur if Malema would become a presi­dent. Malema’s decision to start a political party wasnot based on moral or Freedom Charter grounds; itwas based on his greed for power and money and hissubliminal talks are a living testimony to this.Malema was the one who said his blood is green, blackand gold; that he will never leave the ANC. He wasthe one begging the delegate with letters in Man­gaung to reconsider their decision to expel him. He isthe one who promised to change. But when his pleadid not work out and his life started to turn upsidedown he started realising that he is poor and power­less.In an interview on SAfm, Malema said if the ANC had

not taken his farm after it took his house in Sandtonand his millions he would have stayed. Only ignorantpeople believe Malema when he says he left the ANCbecause its liberal and does not want to nationaliseth mines or because he was expelled. Malema, unlikeZuma, is young; he would have made his way back tothe ANC. Political parties are not like businesses, youdon’t get fired and never come back. Leadershipchanges and so does the weather within the politicalparty. He could have waited for his time; until when,I don’t know. I am sure Nelson Mandela too did notknow how many years he would wait to get out prison.The same followers Malema has are the same he waslying to while he the ANCYL president. He went to thepeople and shouted that: “We are poor and hungry,we want Economic Freedom” when he was swimmingin millions.The Economic Freedom Fighters he is now calling foris the one he lost; he was a Sandton resident, drovetop class cars and wore only the finest. Malema wasnot hungry or poor like most of his followers were andstill are; he had Economic Freedom and soon lost it.His friends like the former jail­bird who, like him, wentmysteriously from being a pauper to be a millionaire,Kenny Kunene, will help him. We’ve already read op­portunistic open letters trying to persuade and kill theANC’s image by Kenny Kunene. Again, the same mediathat inflated Malema’s head is doing the same to Ken­ny.Suddenly, he becomes a saint just few months after

he confessed to raping young girls and his desires tostart selling pornography. I refuse to trust Malema be­cause I can’t imagine South Africa with him as a presi­dent and Kenny Kunene his deputy. I don’t trust Juliusbecause he would ruin all attempts to Unite this coun­try and turn us into another Zimbabwe; chasing whitepeople away, chasing investors away, ruining oureconomy and turning this country not into a bananabut into Kenny’s Sushi Nation.The ANC and EFF are fundamentally different. Unlike

EFF, the ANC is not owned by a person or a group ofpeople. It was not owned by Nelson Mandela whenhe was president and was not owned by Mbeki, it’salso not owned by Zuma, the people own it.

Lekgwathi: Sinister forcesat Bucs

LUCKY Lekgwathi claims“sinister forces” are behindhisexclusionfromtheOrlan-

doPiratesline-upfortheMTN8Fi-nal – but says he does not blameRoger de Sa.

In an explosive ‘Captain’s Cor-ner’ column in yesterday’s DailySun–whichisworthareadforanysoccer fan – Lekgwathi says “poli-tics ruined what could have beena great sporting weekend for theteam”.

PlatinumStars lifted their firstMTN8 trophy at the weekend, af-terBucscompletely lost theircom-posure in the penalty shoot-out.

Lekgwathi was one of the sur-prise exclusions from Bucs’ line-up, but told KickOff.com after thegamethathe“respects thecoach’sdecision”.

Sifiso Myeni was also absent,but the club insisted after thematch that he had a slight knockand “could not be risked” on theday.

FanswerealsosurprisedtoseeAndile Jali walking onto the pitchahead of the game, despite Lehlo-honoloMasalesa’s name being onthe teamsheet, fuelling specula-

TALKINGFOOTBALL

DANNY Jordaan is the new Safapresident. Let us hopehe lives up totheexpectationsof thehugemajori-ty that voted him into office.

It is also interesting to see thatSouthAfricansarestartingtolookatpeopleintermscompetencyinsteadof race. Young South Africans areyearning for opportunities to devel-optheirtalents.Wehopethenewex-ecutive will consider first the inter-est of the game before themselves.

Presently, we seem to think thatBafanaBafana can become aworldclass team in a country where thejuniors are not playing. The biggestchallengeasDannyhimselfcorrect-ly identifies is the quality of coach-ing.

South African footballers are aproductofourcoaches.Wedefinite-

ly need to improve the quality andquantity of coaches in this country.Youdonotbecomeagoodcoachon-ly by winning local competitions.South African coaches should com-parewiththebestthattheworldcanoffer.

Problems of South African foot-ball will take many years to solve.The training of more coaches andthequalityof trainingdoesnotsolvecoaching challenges. We also needto change our mindsets in relationtoworkethic.Itdoesnothelptohavehighly educated but lazy people.Presently, money and materialisticthings aremore important than thework to most of us.

Issuesofservicedeliveryarealsoclosely linked to the game of foot-ball. Our country has not trans-formed in terms of football facilitiesat grassroots level. Young boys andgirlsdonothavetrainingfacilitiesintheir communities.TheSportsMin-ister talks about school sports andyet many schools in Black areas donot have any football fields.

Wewishthenewexecutivegetallthe support they need from everySouth African. Patriotism is moreabout doing positive things for yourcountry than yourself.

Presently, we have failed to in-culcate the spirit of love for one’scountry. I hope they will show thisthrough their leadership style. In-terestof thegamemustcomebeforepersonal interests. Unzima lomthwalo!

last Saturday due to bad weather condi­tions.Ward 34 incorporates areas such as Pan­orama, Eastwood, Glenwood, Them­balihle and Cinderella Park and Pano­rama Primary School has been ear­marked for the event.According to organisers, the event will

start at 7:30 am with a fun run/walk(2,5km).“The one day communitygames were to berounded off lastweekend but theunkind rainyweather and dan­gerousconditionsforced us to re­re­scheduleitforthiscoming Saturday,”said event coordi­nator and founder ofthe ward 34 communi­ty sport day, Jerry Barnes.

“Some teams, parents andspectators came and really wanted to goahead with the games, but the condi­tions were bad. It was very cold, rainingnon­stop, the pitch slippery and we de­cided it was not safe for our community,especially the children to play.“I’m just glad that we all settled for Sat­urday,”continuedtheveteransportsjour­nalist.The Department Of Sports and Recrea­

tion uMgungundlovu district manager,Busi Nkomo, said the children wanted toplay but parents, organisers and teammanagers were able to convince them.“The children just wanted to carry on

with the business, but we told them thatthe conditions were not safe to play.Those kids just can’t wait to get into the

ground and play. They also can’t wait forSaturday and were are all looking for­ward to have fun,”said Nkomo.Barnes said besides the fun run/walk,

soccer games (boys and girls), they willbe other sport codes on the day’s pro­gram such as netball, skipping (in­gqathu) and otherindigenous sporting codes.“This week, I had a couple of calls from

other areas such as Copesville, Zinkethe­ni, Northdale, Ntuthukoville and

Haniville. People were askingto bring more netball

teams and ingomagroups (traditional

Zulu dance).“I’m saying any

team (boys, girls,seniors, O35­oldtimers or juniors),from any area,

sports or tradi­tional,

anything, come, par­ticipate and play with

us.“ResidentsofWard34arevery

accommodating and welcomes the vis­iting teams. It’s just a day of playing andfun and everybody will win something.We are only asking people to bring them­selves something to eat because wedon’t have a sponsor to feed people.“I repeat, people are coming to play. Theywill win medals and trophies, we don’thave food,” said Barnes.

He said the aim of the event is to seethe community playing and being madeaware of social ills such as drugs, alcohol,abusive behaviour and HIV/Aids and howto prevent them or manage HIV/Aids.Old clothes, blankets and food parcels

will be collected for the recent Jika­Joeinformal settlement victims whosehomes were destroyed by fire.
