RECENT events at the Letitia BamHospital in KwaNobuhle suggestthat we are sitting on a time bombthat could explode at any time.

So says Uitenhage Sub District Bhealth general secretary ThembisileNogampula.

He said recent demands by alleg-edly drunk people to be treated be-fore patients queueing for medicalattention since the early morning,were the last straw in a number ofincidents that showed a lack of un-derstanding, respect and protocolfrom local residents.

“Members of the community com-plain of service delivery, but whentheyarebeingassistedtheyshowun-ruly behaviour. It is wrong and can-not be accepted,” Nogampula said.

Anexecutivememberof theTreat-ment Action Campaign, Nogampulasaid they were opposed to such mis-demeanours in the same way thatthey dreaded government officialswho displayed laziness and an un-caringattitudebydraggingtheir feetatworkinsteadofgivingpeoplegoodservice in the spirit of Batho Pele(People First).

He said a stakeholders’ forumwhich inclu-ded ward committeemembers, community development

workers, theTreatmentActionCam-paign and Amadodana Okwenene,among others, had been held lastweek to discuss problems bedevil-ling the local clinic.

Nogampula said the police andcommunity police forum membershad not been able to make it owingto other commitments.

He said a public meeting was heldat the Jeff Masemola CommunityHall in KwaNobuhle last Thursdayto discuss issues relating to resi-dents’ expectations of the public hos-pital.

“We discussed a number of issues,including educating our peopleabout health problems. The role of

the X-ray and trauma units in thehospital were also be under the spot-light.

“The bottom line is that we wantresidents to appreciate the good thatgovernment is doing on one hand,and ensure that they get quality ser-vices for a better life on the otherhand,” Nogampula said, adding thathis structure had been created by,and was accountable to, Health MECPhumza Dyantyi.

It was not politically aligned, hesaid, but played an oversight roleand had a good rapport with council-lors Thembisile Gana, Nomsa Man-ci,MondeVaaltynandLoyisoSteme-le.

THE UDM say they are in negotia-tions with hundreds of ANC mem-bers to walk over to the UDM as theparty gears up for the local generalelections next year.

In a press conference to welcomeveteran ANC ward 30 leader Mich-ael Ciko to the UDM, MongameliBobani said they were expectingover a thousand members, with90% of those from the ANC, to walkover to the UDM before the monthended as negotiations were beingconducted.

Bobani said the ANC memberswere mo-ving to the UDM owing to

the conditions they had endured inthe ANC.

“We are expecting thousands tomove to the UDM in no time andthey want a change just like Ciko.Over 90% of the members will bemoving from the ANC, some fromthe DA. This Heritage Month willbe a month for the UDM. It will bea nice heritage for the UDM. By theend of Heritage Month we will havewelcomed the thousands we talkabout,” said Bobani.

Bobani said he could not namenames, but said some of the mem-bers would be part of the big fishof the local ANC.

Ciko, who said he was neglectedby the ANC, had been a member of

the ANC for over 25 years havingserved as a marshal in his youth,and a deputy secretary of ward 30branch under councillor AndileMfunda and late councillor MikeTofile.

DA leader Retief Odendaal saidthey also had hundreds of politicalmembers moving to the DA andthey were not concerned with thenumbers emphasised by the UDM.

“Its politics and we are nearingelections. On a monthly basis hun-dreds are walking over to the DAand that is not necessarily news-worthy. I would be very surprisedif members walk over to the UDMbecause members are well awarethat we will be taking over the met-

ro.“The UDM is a minority with less

than 7%. In the specific by-elec-tions the UDM showed the ANCthat people are tired of being takenfor granted and people voted forthat. I doubt whether they will re-

peat that performance next year,”said Odendaal.

) When approached for com-ment, ANC chief whip Litho Sukaasked to be called an hour later andafter that hour he was unavailablefor comment.

THERE are two things that PoliceCommissioner Riah Phiyega saysher department is clear about - theneed to curb the continuous killingof police and the escalating gang vi-olence in the northern areas of PortElizabeth.

Speaking at the Nelson MandelaBay Stadium during the officiallaunch of the Police Music and Cul-tural Association (Polmusca) Unity

Festival last Friday, Phiyega saidthey would do anything to secure asafe environment for their law en-forcement officers.

“The killing of police is a hugeproblem. This is our major con-cern. We urge members of the com-munity to report these incidentsand ensure that perpetrators are ar-rested,” Phiyega said.

The provinces with the most po-lice killings were Gauteng, theWestern Cape and KwaZulu-Natalin that order, she said, adding that

16 policemen had lost their lives inthe line of duty in Gauteng since thebeginning of the year.

Eastern Cape Police Commission-er Lieutenant General Celiwe Bintasaid there had been two police kill-ings in the province since April thisyear, one in Fort Beaufort in fulluniform and the other in MountFletcher. The suspects in both caseshad met the full might of the law.

“Gangsterism in parts of PortElizabeth’s northern areas like Gel-vandale has always been a persist-

ent problem,” Phiyega said.“We have seen many deaths as a

result of gang violence and haveused many interventions.”

She said high police visibilitywas one strategy and the NationalProsecuting Authority had alsoplayed ball by ensuring stiff senten-ces were meted out.

Because gangsterism was a multi-dimensional problem, they urgedmembers of the community to as-sist the police, she said.

“Our strength is in our unity.”

According to Pasiya, their com-plaintsrange fromwaiting invain forhouses while carrying papers thatgrant them ownership of houses -claiming that they knew of peoplewho were selling RDP houses whilerightful owners were left in the lurch.

“There’s a lot of fraud going onhere. We’ve got proof and the namesof people involved in corrupt practic-es, but we choose to reveal them onlywhen the mayor finally meets us. Hemust come and talk to us, this is seri-ous stuff and not football,” said Pasi-ya to loud applause.

Residents said they took the du-plexes (Ngendlovu) by force becausethey have noted something theywanted to discuss with the numberone citizen. They also admitted tohaving received eviction letters but,“Asiyi ndawo” they said.

The group said they knew that for-eign nationals were not involved.They became soft targets because“the whole nation comes to a stand-still when South Africans touch for-eign nationals.”

Some of the residents have howev-er, put their lives on the line and triedto protect the foreign nationals by

guarding their shops day and night.Police spokesperson Warrant Offi-

cer Dumile Gwavu confirmed inci-dents of public violence and arsonand said police were investigating.

“We have held meetings with theconcerned residents and senior mu-nicipal officials to deal with their is-sues, but to no avail,” said Jama add-ing that they feared that the violencewas spiralling out of control.

Municipal spokesperson Mthub-anzi Mniki said illegal occupation ofhouses was unacceptable.

He said they were investigatinghousing waiting lists to identifyproblems and would soon put up areconciled, complete and transpar-ent list which would state clearlywhere people were on the waitinglist.

“We’d also like to state that not allproblems are addressed by the exec-utive mayor personally. He delegatesand decisions taken by the delegatedofficial represented the views of themunicipal council,” said Mniki.

He added, “We cannot accept thecriminal activities taking place inthe area. We urge police to take ac-tion when residents choose to mis-take service delivery issues withcrime.”

RETIRED nurses of Motherwell have cometogether to form a structure that would helpthem participate effectively in communitydevelopment initiatives.

The launch of the Motherwell RetiredNurses Organisation (MORENO) at the Ray-mond Mhlaba Sports Centre in NU4 Mother-well, was the beginning of a new journey forthe practitioners who were no longer on theHealth Department payroll, but still much in-volved in health matters which affect localcommunities.

The launch was attended by MORENOmembers and their families, representativesfrom other retired nurses organisations,Democratic Nurses Organisations of SouthAfrica (DENOSA) leadership, speakers fromthe Department of Social Development andinvited guests.

The event was the culmination of a long

time of planning by the nurses.MORENO Chairperson Nompumelelo

Njezula introduced her executive committeeand said that they decided to work togetheras retired nurses because, she explained, “tobe retired, didn’t mean they were tired”.

“We plan to work together as we are agingin different ways but still have the passionfor our work - of health promotion.

“We’ll look at ways in which we’ll supportour communities’ needs while we’re provid-ing care and support for one another physi-cally and spiritually,” said Njezula.

She said they found out that there are oth-er retired nurses organisations that theywould be working with and sharing ideas.

Reverend Zwelitsha Lalendle summed itup reading from the book of Matthew 5:13and said in the opening prayer that MO-RENO represented the light and salt of theworld.

“As you are retired, you are rehired foryour new roles,” he quipped.

THE 23rd Police Music and Cultural Asso-ciation (Polmusca) Unity Festival held atthe Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium andNMMU’s Missionvale campus from Sep-tember 17 to 19 was a resounding success.

The prestige event, a huge exposition ofdiverse South African cultures that includ-ed choral music, bands, traditional andballroom dance, cultural exhibitions andpotjiekos was aimed at relieving stressamong South Africa’s men and women inblue whose everyday job was associatedwith danger and even death, national Po-lice Commissioner Riah Phiyega said.

In the choral competition, KwaZulu-Na-tal took first prize, followed by the SAPS

head office, while last year’s overall win-ners, the Eastern Cape, took third position.

Mpumalanga won the battle of the bandsfollowed by the head office and the North-ern Cape came third.

The Northern Cape came tops in the ball-room dance stakes, followed by KwaZulu-Natal and Free State.

North West Province took the honours inthe traditional dance category, with theEastern Cape second and Northern Capethird.

In the potjiekos competition, the judgesagreed nobody does it better than the East-ern Cape. The Western Cape came secondfollowed by the Free State.

Hundreds of policemen and policewo-men enjoyed their stay in Nelson MandelaBay. For three days they mingled with the

powers that be, including Phiyega, and for-got about the hustle and bustle associatedwith their job of law enforcement.

And no serious crimes were reportedaround Nelson Mandela Bay, local policespokespersons Warrant Officer DumileGwavu and Constable Mncedi Mbombosaid.

This proved true the assertion by Phiye-ga that “Polmusca is used to support crimeprevention initiatives by calming down in-flamed unrest within communities and al-so providing recreation andpleasure to ourworkforce.”

Both police labour unions, the South Af-rican Police Union and the Police and Pris-ons Civil Rights Union support Polmusca,saying the health and welfare of the menand women in blue is paramount.

THE recent concern expressed by theMinisterof Basic Education Angie Motshekga over thefact that too many South African children can-not read could soon be answered.

In an effort to address this, the Phendula Lit-eratureQuiz, otherwiseknownasLitQuiz,washeld last Wednesday at the NU9 public libraryin Motherwell.Five primary schools, Emafini, Zanoxolo,

Fumis’ukoma, Sanctor and Swartkops, took

part in the quiz after reading the five booksfrom which the questions came.St George’s Prep librarian Rosemary Roth

said this was a national quiz aimed at encour-aging pupils to read.It was started by Johannesburg librarian

Marge Brown, who noted the problem of notenough reading being done in schools.Brown organises sponsored books and sends

them to the provinces involved, including theEastern Cape.“As a lover of reading myself, I encouraged

someof theschools to takepart, andas theysay,

the rest is history,” said Roth.RothsaidPortElizabeth’sprivilegedschools,

meaning those schools with library facilities,assisted those without libraries by offeringthem books to read.She said a Motherwell NU9 librarian, Mari-

anne Terblanche, played a pivotal role as shetook pupils from the schools involved and gavethem reading lessons.The quizmaster, Grey Primary English

teacher Grant Butler, took the childrenthrough their paces with a set of questions infour rounds.

He told theGrade6and7boysandgirls repre-senting their schools that winning or losingmeant nothing.The key thing they should be thinking about

was that their schools, including qualifiedteachers, had selected thembecause they trust-ed them to do a good job of representing theirschools.“What is importantwas foryou toenjoyread-

ing and for that you are all winners,” he said.SwartkopsPrimary took the first prize, Ema-

fini was second and Sanctor third.The prizes were sponsored books - to read.

ABOUT 30 pupils of theWabamkela Edu-care in Walmer Township visited theTreasure Island play centre this weekwhere they had the opportunity to expe-rience a snake show by Silvano Recchia,also known as the Snake Man.

Recchia has been breeding withsnakes for the past eighteen years.“Snake breeding is my hobby and my

love for snakes developed from a veryyoung age,” said Recchia.He, like most people, were also afraid

of snakes at first, but the more time hespent with snakes, the more he becameat ease with the reptiles.As the snake man took Shikana the al-

bino Burmese python out, the little faceshad mixed emotions. Some were curi-ous, while others decided to avoid eyecontact with the snake.Juliet Watt, manager of Wabamkela,

said that this outing meant a lot to thechildren.“This outing allows them to see more

than just the streets of the township, andit aims to educate the children aroundthe nurturing of pets.”

EASTERN Cape Filmmakers Forum will holdahighlyeducationalandinformativeWorkshopattheUDDINelsonMandelaBayScienceCentrethis Saturday, September 26 from 9am to 6pm.

According to Eastern Cape Film Festival Di-rector Nceba Mqolomba, the créme de la crémeof South African filmmakers, including the leg-endaryBenNomoyi,willbeamongthespeakerson the day.According to Mqolomba, Nomoyi will cha-

llenge prospective writers and filmmakers towork together in order to have an impact beforetaking the writers through their paces of pen-ning a gripping synopsis.KwaNobuhle’s Mqolomba mentioned that

they were perturbed and wanted to dispel themyth that filmmaking was not a lucrative busi-ness that could create sustainable jobs.Following the examples of the Western Cape

and KwaZulu Natal which were enjoying thefruitsof thisrealisationandgettinggovernmentand big business support for the industry, hesaid, theywere first arming their troupesbeforethey engaged in a coup d’etat of the country’sbusiness trends.“We know for a fact that filmmaking is con-

tributing R3 billion to the country’s GDP whilecreating over 25 000 jobs,” said Mqolo-mba.

Mqoloba will dissect the making of the docu-mentary with people like Nopinkie Bantsile.SABC News Anchor Thami Dickson will bedelving into the topic of the Department ofTradeandIndustry(DTI)EmergingBlackFilm-makers Fund and on how to turn an idea intoa story, before the screening of short films anddocumentaries aimed at helping the inviteesput things into perspective.Followingtheprovincial filmfestivalEastern

CapeFilmmakers held inAugust, they realisedthat the task of organising prospective film-makers and other technicians involved in thebusiness was a mammoth task that could notbe dealt with in one day, said Mqolomba.“We decided to meet once amonth involving

people in filmmaking and production in theirdifferent districts so that we have enough timetodealwithspecificareas inasatisfactoryman-ner,” Mqolomba toldExpress Indaba.Last month they visited Amahlathi District

Municipality eCumakala, thismonth theywereat Nelson Mandela Bay Metro and in Octoberthey will do the OR Tambo District and theChris Hani District Municipalities before theytake a Christmas break. They will resume inFebruary in other regions.The highlight on Saturdaywill be the screen-

FIVE young karatekas from KwaN-oxolo Township in Port Elizabethwill soon be jetting off to Russia toparticipate in the World United Ka-rate Federation competition in No-vember.

Fourth Dan Black Belt Sensei Jo-seph Thomas of KwaNoxolo Shoto-kan Karate Club said his studentsshone in Kata (Style) and Kumite(Fighting) at the National Competi-tion in Kuils River in Cape Town re-cently. The team to represent SouthAfrica in Russia was selected here.“We picked five players from the

club whom we thought would bringglory.Andgoodnessme, all fivewon

the local, regional and nationalspots to theworld championships inboth Kata and Kumite. This makesme very proud,” said Thomas.SenseiThomasadded that the out-

standing performances from hismentees was a result of dedicationto the sport and high discipline.“We have a number of young peo-

ple who have joined the sport andquickly learnt the basics. They arewilling and hungry for success. Itmakes it so easy to train them,” saida proud Thomas who stated that alltheir transport and accommoda-tion costs would be paid by the Ka-rate Federation.“This delights us more because

coming from poor backgrounds inKwaNoxolo, where unemployment

is rife, we would struggle to raiseenough funds to go overseas.“The only thing we might need

now is assistance to get tracksuitsand maybe some pocket money forthe boys,” Thomas pleaded.

Nelson Mandela Bay Premier SoccerLeague (PSL) outfit Chippa United will bethe facing Polokwane City this Friday.Kick-off is at 7.30pm.Last Saturday they enjoyed watching fast

and furious carpet football delivered by theyoung and energetic Ajax Cape Town play-

ers who outplayed MTN 8 defending cham-pions Kaizer Chiefs to a 1-0 defeat at NelsonMandela Bay Stadium to stake a claim at theWafa Wafa title and collect a whopping R8million in prize money on offer.A delighted Urban Warriors Head Coach

Roger de Sa congratulated his young play-ers who gave Amakhosi playmakers noroom to manoeuvre their way to the Cup Fi-nal Victory.A sterling performance by Man-of-the

Match Nathan Paulse was rewarded with agoal he scored from a penalty spot in the sec-ond half after a goalless first half.

Chiefs had no answer despite putting upa brave fight that kept their fans on theirfeet until the last whistle by referee DanielBennett.Coming to the Chippa United versus Po-

lokwane City game, no matter what hap-pened to the Chilli Boys in their awaymatch to PlatinumStars last night, at home,head coach Roger Sikhakhane’s boyswill beexpected to prove that they are a hard nutto crack.They have to put up a performance par

excellence like they did against defendingAbsa Premiership League Champions Kaiz-

er Chiefs whom they held to a goalless draw.Their defence in the last three matches

(before last night’s game of course) washowever, suspect. They were trounced 3-0by Free State Stars, 4-0 by University of Pre-toria and 4-1 by Orlando Pirates.Question is, will the final signing of Bur-

kina Faso striker Aristide Bance on the dot-ted lines be the tonic for the scarcity of goalsby the Chilli Boys’ marksmen?Fans, as the recognisable 12th player, are

encouraged to come in droves to see the on-ly Eastern Cape based PSL football outfit inaction.
