MORE than a hundred Kwazak-hele residents marched to aKwaZakhele ward council-lor’s office last week to de-mand that a volunteer who

had been helping them with legal matters notbe kicked out of the office.

Residents say that the volunteer, SabeloWilliams, who is popularly known by his clanname Tshawe, has been helping them withtheir housing problems - something whichthe ward councillor is not doing.

Members of the SA Police in KwaZakhelewere on hand to maintain order when the res-idents marched to the office of the councillorof Ward 20 in Nelson Mandela Bay Metropoli-tan Municipality, Bongo Nombiba.

According to the angry residents, CllrNombiba kicked out Tshawe over a disputeinvolving a housing matter.

Tshawe, who is a neighbourhood watchchairperson, is a pensioner who works with-out pay and is said to use his own resourcesto assist residents struggling with legal mat-ters.

According to one of the residents, DumileBibini (52), two weeks ago Tshawe was help-ing in a matter in which a divorced man wasallegedly trying to kick his deceased formerwife’s grandson out of her house.Express Indaba learnt that Tshawe helped

the grandson win the case as the rightful own-er of the house.

“We hear Cllr Nombiba and his Ward Com-mittee wanted the matter discussed again, be-cause they are taking the side of the old man.Tshawe refused to meet them. Now Nombibais kicking him out of the office. Why? Whodid he consult before taking that decision?”asked Bibini.

THE planned opening of the Baywest Mallhas been postponed by amonth andwill nowhappen middle of May.

Gavin Blows, managing director of Bay-west, said at a business breakfast of theSouth African Council of Shopping Centresthat this was decided to ensure that every-thing is operational from day one.The mall, built at a cost of almost R2 bil-

lion, is the first phase of the bigger BaywestCity development. It is similar to CenturyCity in Cape Town in that it is a city withina city.

According to Blows, among the biggestchallenges thus far were the strikes in thecivil and steel industries, as well as dealingwith local governmentswhosehigh turnoverof staff caused delays in decision making.He also highlighted the high rates and tax-

es as well as electricity costs in Nelson Man-dela Bay as a challenge for doing businessand which will have a negative impact oneconomic growth in the area. Locally thesecosts are double those charged at some of theother areas, such as Cape Town and Johan-nesburg, where they have developed malls.Construction of themall started inNovem-

ber 2013 and has created 3 000 employmentopportunities.

The mall will have 250 tenants of which85% is national. According toBlows, the firstfloor will feature a high fashion node withbrands that have never been in Port Eliza-beth before.Themall’s Fun Factorywill have Ster Kin-

ekor theatres, electronic ten pin bowling andan ice rink.By lateApril the first phaseof thenewroad

networkwill be complete. This includes link-ingWalker Drive with Baywest Mall and on-ramps and off-ramps to the N2 freeway.The second phase of the road network up-

grades – the bridge connectingWalker Drivewith Bridgemeade and Rowallan Park at OldCapeRoad –will be completed by September.

To dealwith the increase inmall robberiesexperienced countrywide, the security bud-get for the mall has been doubled. Securitymeasures include thermal cameras, as wellas technology to scan car registrations, forchecking on the police’s database.The residential component of the Baywest

City developmentwill be launched at the endof the year.This will comprise 250 houses costing be-

tween R800 000 and R1.5 million.Construction of the lifestyle centre, an-

chored by Virgin Active, has commenced, aswell as the office park and vehicle showroomswhich are expected to be completed inSeptember next year.

Angry residents also said the councillor didnot care for their well-being and instead choseto assist residents from KwaNdokwenza se-ction.They accused Nombiba of ensuring 90% em-

ployment opportunities for KwaNdokwenzaresidents and housing ownership, among oth-ers.Nombiba denied these accusations as well as

that of kicking Tshawe out.“I am the one that opened the office for uT-

shawe to comeandworkhereeveryWednesdaybecause I saw that he has passion for issues re-lating to houses. I did not kick him out of office.Tshawe is asked to work with only the WardCommittee - something that he refuses to do,”CllrNombiba told the angry residentswhile po-lice looked on.He also denied allegations that he was choos-

ingcertainmembersofthecommunityoveroth-ers.“That’s not true. We always ensure that job

opportunities are evenly spread in the ward.

Anyone who thinks otherwise must bringproof,” Nombiba said.AWard Committeemember, Nombulelo Nce-

tezo, said “We are a legally instituted structurewith the powers to call anyone in the ward toorder.Theproblemhere is thatTshawedoesnotwant to account. He was working alone beforewewere elected. Now,we are there andmust berecognised. All we wanted to know is, how didhe come to his conclusions in the case withouthearing from the other complainant (the olderman)?”Tshawe said hewas called to ameeting by the

WardCommittee andwas told thathis approachto the matter was one-sided and wrong.“I refused to listen to that. All I’m saying is,

I am accountable tomembers of the communityforwhich Iwork. I’ve got all the legal documentsto prove my case. I wonder what is it that theyare basing their arguments on,” said Tshawe.When asked by Express Indaba whether he

would heed the councillor’s call to go back tooffice andwork, Tshawe said “Yes, but not to ac-count to the people that want me to work forthem”.

POLICE Stations in the Motherwell clustertookpart inavery successfullOperationLock-down crime prevention campaign last Friday.

According to SAPS Spokesperson CaptainAndre Beetge the stations took part in the op-eration from 10am and 2pm, and included theK9 and mounted units.The focus of the operation was on stolen

property, drugs, alcohol abuse, firearms anddomestic violence, including sexual offencesagainst women and children.Beetge said the importance of conducting

the operation on Fridaywas largely due to thefact thatmost employed people had their “pay-day” and that paid people flocked to businessareas and shopping malls to conduct businesson this day.“In the past we have seen that criminals

take advantage of “pay-day” scenarios to tar-

get potential victims,” said Beetge.He said police set up two vehicle check

points while foot patrols, horseback patrolsand dog patrols took place closer to the majorshopping malls.At the shoppingmallsmembers also handed

out crime awareness pamphlets dealing withdomestic violence as well as a number of safe-ty hints and tips.Nomajor crime incidents took place during

the period of the operation, according to Beet-ge, who added, however, that a 43-year-oldmale was arrested for selling liquor withouta licence.He was trading a shebeen without a licence

and 60 litres of various makes of beer wereconfiscated. Police arrested two other sus-pects, aged 29 and 20, for possession of Man-drax and formurder that took place in Decem-ber.They also seized twoknives during the oper-

ation.

TWO local small businessmen havegone from fixing shoes to manufac-turing their own shoe brand, tak-ing their business to new heightsby enrolling in The Hope Factory’sEnterprise and Supplier Develop-ment mentorship programme.

Sibongiseni Mnikini and Masi-bulele Matshaya, have come a longway having started BambananiFresh Art three years ago.

Based in Port Elizabeth, the com-pany manufactures casual genuineleather boat shoes. With the smallbusiness still operating from a con-tainer store in the township, theyhave managed to secure their big-gest contract with a Johannesburgshoe retailer – Dope Store.

The duo said Dope Store ordereda dozen pairs from BambananiFresh Art after meeting them at theMotherwell Urban Renewal Pro-gramme. “We are selective aboutwhich stores we’ll supply shoes to

because we have a niche marketand not all retailers will carry ourproducts well,” said Mnikini.

Currently, they make boat shoesonly and are planning to expandthe range to include a formal foot-wear range for men. The shoes are100% hand-made and customersget to choose their own materialswhich in turn determines the price– this is a novel concept in footwearmanufacture and is proving to bepopular with clients who wantsomething different.

“Our success is a big surprise tous. We’ve realised that people wantto help us and this is because of thenetworking opportunities we’vebeen exposed to,” said Masibulele.

The business partners are re-ceiving valuable skills trainingfrom The Hope Factory’s mentor-ship programme – this includesmarketing skills, how to grow salesand improving their book-keepingskills.

Mnikini admits, “When wejoined The Hope Factory, we were

looking for a mentor because wedidn’t know how to run a properbusiness. The Hope Factory hashelped us get our books in orderand we have now employed an ac-countant.”

Through word of mouth the busi-ness is growing and they are ex-pecting more orders. The companywebsite has proven to be a goodplatform to tell buyers about theirproducts, but they plan to continueusing social media as marketingtools.

WHAT can you do when you needwork experience but employment isscarce?

Two Motherwell students solvedthis problem by going back to school.

LelethuFatyiandVuyisaniMonco(both 23), who are studying HumanResource (HR) Management at EastCape Midlands College with N6 Qual-ification, were faced with the mam-moth task of finding 18 months of em-ploymentexperiencethroughintern-ship.

“We heard of GRADIMA, an insti-tution in Motherwell which helpsgraduates, diplomates and matricu-lants find employment, internshipsand learnerships. We came and wereaccepted,” said Fatyi.

GRADIMA found them an intern-

ship at Coselelani High in Mother-well.

“Here at Coselelani High we do ad-ministration work. It is not really inline with what we studied, but it isbetter than nothing,” said Fatyi.

“We regard ourselves as lucky be-causewedidnotspendmuchtimebe-fore finding this opportunity.

“Many of our fellow students andfriends are still struggling to belinked to any job because jobs are re-ally scarce,” said Monco.

Monco said she studied HR be-cause she liked working with peopleand found the discipline attractiveand the salary opportunities pleas-ing.

The duo agreed that they were pre-pared to start at the bottom but bothknow that they are destined for up-ward mobility.

“We are getting work experience.

That’s all that matters,” Fatyi said.She said the stipend they received

each month was helping them withtheir needs. Though not enough, sheconceded that the money was alsomaking a difference at home.

Fatyi would, however, urge com-panies to extend the 18-months in-ternship to two to three years be-cause employers ask for that lengthof working experience.

“I would like to urge other youngpeople always to look out for oppor-tunities. Even though they arescarce, they are there in the longrun,” said Monco.

THE power of breakfast was the focus ofNational BreakfastMonth inMarch, high-lighting and celebrating the key benefitsof starting your day off right.

Breakfast is widely known as the mostcritical daily meal, with many provenphysical, mental and even social benefits.Yet according to a study published by

the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, itis still a frequently skipped one.

Almost one in five South African chil-dren is going to school on an empty stom-ach, according to The National Nutritionand Examination Survey South Africa.Kellogg is addressing the problem of the

absence of breakfast in people’s lives-through its Breakfast for Better Days Ini-tiative.Working alongside the Department of

Basic Education and Food Bank South Af-rica, Kellogg is dishing up a breakfast ofcereal and milk to 25 000 school childrenevery school day in 2015 in four SouthAfri-can provinces.One of the schools benefiting from the

campaign is the Funimfundo PrimarySchool in Zwide.Schools participating in the Breakfast

for Better Days Initiative have reportedless absenteeism, better performance inthe classroom by learners and less aggres-sion since the launch of the programme.National Breakfast Month aims to high-

light the benefits of eating breakfastwhichhave been studied extensively, with somestudies showing an immediate effect oncognitiveperformanceand feelings ofwell-being, as well as extended benefits relatedto nutrient intakes and weight manage-

ment. Breakfast consumption has alsobeen linked to reduced risk of cardiovascu-lar disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus.Dietitians recommend that if the means

exist at home to put breakfast on the tableregularly, the meal should be eaten prefer-ably as a family. Said KZN-based dietitianKelly Francis: “Perhaps there needs to bea shift in the mindset of all health promo-tion-related parties.“SouthAfricans first need to see healthy

eating as a responsibility and then learnhow to eathealthily. Parentsneed to accepthealthy food provision as part of the re-sponsibilities they have for children. Chil-dren cannot be left to their own devices inthis area.”

THE South African Library for the Blindin the Eastern Cape has installed 24mini-libraries or “Minilibs” - meaningmini-libraries housed within the publiclibraries – aimed at bringing library ser-vices to the partially sighted and blindthroughout the province.

According to SA Library for the BlindProject Coordinator Phumla Mahan-jana, the Eastern Cape has, through theSALibraryfortheBlind,beeninthefore-front of empowering this communitythrough the installation of the Minilibsthat include a text reader, a computer foraccess to online resources, and materialsincluding braille books since 2010.

TherewerecurrentlythreeMinilibsinNelson Mandela Bay, according to Ma-hanjana. There was one at Elukhanyis-weni (KwaNobuhle), one at Nangoza Je-be (New Brighton) and another in NU9(Motherwell).

Staff members were trained in the useof the equipment and how to assist thevisually impaired.

“The visually impaired have a consti-tutional right to access these services.The project in the Eastern Cape has beenso successful that we are hoping it willeventually be rolled out across the coun-try,” said Mahanjana.

Library and Information ServicesManager at the Department of Sport,Recreation, Arts and Culture in the prov-ince, Lubabalo Dzedze, said the aim wasto roll out Minilibs to every community.

One of the people to have benefitedfrom the use of the Minilib is SonwabileDlakavu, from Lusikisiki in the OR Tam-bo District.

Dlakavu represented his region dur-ing the general knowledge quizzes host-ed by DSRAC for Minilib users in theEastern Cape during the Library Week.

He said, “We (blind and partially sight-ed people) are at last able to read and tostay informed of developments. Beforethe Minilib we had nothing.”

THE Commercial Road Boxer team wentbeyond the call of duty - becoming in-volved with a school soccer tournamentin their hopes to uplift communities inthe Nelson Mandela Bay.

Store manager Bramwell Burger andhis proactive team took the initiativesupported by Boxer because they felt itwas important to invest in the enjoy-ment of their future shoppers and createa place, over a specific period of time,that the community youth could spendtheir free time within a safe environ-ment.Burger said four schools from the dis-

trict entered the tournament andthrough a random draw the competing

teams were selected.After the two knock out matches, the two

final teams were selected.The schools who participated in the soc-

cer challenge were Loyiso High School,Masibambane High School, Newell HighSchool and Gelvandale High School. Eachteam consisted of an under-19 boys side.The final game will see the two semi final

winning teams vying for a full soccer kitsponsored by Boxer and Unilever.This initiative has created a fun opportu-

nity for scholars within the community.Boxer said they had become a great

friend of the Port Elizabeth communityover the years since opening.They have forged strong bonds with

shoppers and non-profit organizationsalike, through various community out-reach and upliftment projects.

THE GAME which was described as abattle of David and Goliath left GlenvilleCeltic supporters disappointed whentheir side was held to a 1-1 draw bySaints in their Northern Areas FootballAssociation (NAFA) Premier Leagueclash at their home ground which isSaints Grounds on Friday.

While the visitors, Glenville had chan-ces in abundance, Saints looked likepicking up their form as the game pro-ceeded.It was a deserved point for Saints as

they gave up a gallant effort against NA-

FA Premier League current champions.In essence there were lots of positives

from both outfits although the coacheswere aiming at garnering the maximumthree points.Westlake who were like a house on fire

shared the spoils 1-1 with Blackpool atWindvogel Fields.

FORMER professional boxers working forcar manufacturer Volkswagen South Afri-ca in Uitenhage have taken amateur box-ing development to the next level.

Mxolisi Hompa, Elton Matlala, ThobileGadu, Ngcambaza Mbaduli, Vuyani Xipuand Zolile Kana started a boxing club at thePeople’s Pavillion at VW SA and train theyoung hopefuls in their gym.They do this as their contribution to the

development of sport and ensuring thesafety of children by keeping them occu-piedwith sport rather than criminal activi-ties.The past weekend the former boxers orga-

nised a very successful tournament withNel-son Mandela Bay Amateur Boxing Organisa-tion Clubs, TeamNompumelelo (managed bySipho Nogampula), Phantom Boxing Club(Amen Blouw), Bees BC (Michael Mbekisa),Stinging Bees BC (Ntsikelelo Zuma),MzukisiSikali BC (Mziwamatola Boyce), VW BoxingClub (EltonMatlala), Vukani BC (EnochMat-omana) and Silindokuhle (Mlawuli Nawule)involved.

Current SA Female Junior Lightweightchampion Nomampondomise Xhotyeni andveterans like Thembinkosi Twenana, hisson Thando Twenana, Gcobani Stefans, No-ma Mlenze and Mzukisi Oliphant were alsothere to lend a helping hand.In the presence of a handful of parents

who came to support, the organisers en-gaged young and skilled boys and girls ininteresting bouts.Winners received gold medals and the

losers silver medals to take home.“We started this gym because we felt we

owe it to the youth to help them developtheir boxing skills and become futureworldchampions,” said Matlala, adding that thetournament was an obvious act of deter-mining their strength and gauging howmuch they needed to work to sharpen theskills of their boxers.Matlala challenged local companies to in-

vest in the sport, like VWSA is doing. Hesaid they wanted to see boxers from hiscompany one day fighting against boxersfrom the company in PE. “In the main, weare very happy with this boxing develop-ment,” said a visibly proud VWSA BoxingClub Chairman Mxolisi Hompa.

EASTERN Cape Junior Welterweight champi-onLungisani Jikaniwill finally get anopportu-nity to fight for the national title this month.

Jikani of Port Elizabeth will fight for the va-cant title against Gauteng’s Warren Joubertunder Jeff Ellis’ African Ring Promotions atEmperor’s Palace, Kempton Park, in Gautengon Monday 13 April.The announcement was made by an over-

joyed Jikani’s promoter Sibongile Nkebe whois theheadof SilindokuhleBoxingPromotions.“The boy will finally get an opportunity to

fight for the South African title. I am happy forhim. He is the provincial champion in the divi-

sion and has been in the game for quite sometime now,” said Nkebe of Jikani who turnedprofessional in 2002.Jikani who is trained by Walmer’s Caiphus

Ntante at Caiph Gym in Port Elizabeth hasbeen engaged in humdingers throughout his il-lustrous boxing career which includes 26fights, 19 wins and 11 KOs with seven losses.He is a dedicated sportsmanwho is not asked

to work out in the gym.Nkebe believes that Jikani, who is ranked at

number 3 in the country will be too much tohandle for the number one-rated Joubert, whois in fact new in the 63,40kg division.After stoppingEast London’sMzukisi Ben in
