In a statement issued by the Transport depart- ment the minister noted the heightening of traf- fic volumes and the need for the promotion of pedestrian safety. In the most recent incident, five young men from Arcadia died on Sunday in a horrific car crash near the Kempston Road offramp on the N2 when the car they were travelling in alleged- ly had to swerve to avoid a pedestrian who had run across the road.

Martins said the Department of Transport, working with provinces, the department’s agen- cies, transport stakeholders and the general public, will continue to implement programmes aimed at promoting the safety of pedestrians, passengers and freight on the road. “Promoting road safety remains one of the key priorities of the Department of Transport; hence our inter- ventions will continue to be implemented throughout the year.” “The Department will continue to prioritise the construction of pedestrian bridges, side- walks and speed calming measures such as speed humps and rumble strips in rural areas and townships. The Department will also intro- duce measures aimed at reducing fatalities caused by stray animals. “From the 6th -12th May 2013, the Department of Transport will participate in the UN Week to promote the safety of pedestrians,” said Mar- tins. “This is indeed a national problem,” said Eastern Cape Department of Transport Commu- nications Director Ncedo Kumbaca. Kumbaca said to curb this problem his de- partment has formed Community Road Safety Councils which comprise local councillors, chiefs, church leaders, taxi and bus operators and other interested parties to address the prob- lem. Kumbaca said schools form scholar patrols and also work with district officials, members of the SA Police Service, Traffic Road Safety offi- cials and Community Police Forums (CPFs) in their endearvour to educate communities about road safety measures. “But more work still needs to be done,” said Kumbaca. According to Nelson Mandela Bay municipal spokesperson Thubanzi Mniki, the municipali- ty had a Road Safety Office that goes around to factories, community halls, schools, pre-school and any place where people gather to teach peo- ple about road safety in general and the impor- tance of safety of pedestrians. He added that this office reported on a regular basis to the Standing Committee on Safety and Security. “As a City, we work under the guidance of the National Rolling Enforcement Plan that is made by all parties involved in the Road Safety area.

ALLEGATIONS by residents in Ward 28 thattheirCouncillorBuyelwaMafaya did not careabout them, are “mischievous and untrue”,she told PE Express Indaba on Thursday.

Members of the Kwajijana community inVeeplaas, Port Elizabeth called PE ExpressIndaba to complain about the terrible RDPhouses inwhich they live due to shoddywork-manship.They said this actionwaspromptedby their

councillor’s inertia. They accuse Cllr Mafayaof being invisible andnot quick to take action.According to the residents, water seeps in

through the walls and roofs of zinc that arefalling apart during rainy days. Some houseshavenowindowswhile somehaveunfinishedtoilets.

Strong winds don’t make things easy forthem either. Some people are suffering fromdiseases like TB, they claim.“We thank our government for taking us

out of shacks, but theRDPhouseswe receivedsince 1998 are no good. They are more likelykilling us,” said Sibingelo Mguga (36) a mar-ried father of one.Mother of six Noluthando Tose (49) com-

plained that her house became soakingwet af-ter the Easter weekend’s rains. “And this hasbecome life for me and my children. I am suf-fering from TB as a result,” she said, addingthat she told Cllr Mafaya about this but wasnot getting any assistance.Unemployed Nosipho Njalo (44) who stays

with nine children (four of her own and herlate sister’s five) said they are forced to sleepin one room because the other room could fallin at any time. She complained that rain wa-

ter came in from holes around the room.“There is also the danger of children touch-

ing electrical wire and being electrocuted,”said Njalo pointing at the crisscrossing elec-trical wires around the house.“I feel for the residents and amaware of the

problems they are experiencing,” said CllrMayana when contacted, adding that she un-derstood their frustrations.“But I profusely deny allegations that I do

not care. Since I came into office in May 2009I do speak to the residents regularly aboutwhat is happening in the area,” she said. Thelast time CllrMafaya addressed the residentswas with members of the Housing Develop-ment Agency (HDA) and the municipal Hu-man Settlements officials on February 13th.CllrMafaya said the company that was em-

ployed to do a feasibility study of the area,took their time to bring their findings whichpointed out that the area was congested andinfested with multiple problems that wouldrequire some residents to be relocated.“Their response was too slow, I admit. We

have also had challenges of political instabil-ity in the municipality for some time nowwhich adversely impacted on service deliv-ery. We now have a new mayor and a citymanager. I want to say to the resi-dents we’ll work together to finda solution to their problems,” saidMafaya.In her parting words, Mafaya

added, “I do care. As a councillorI’d like to leave a legacy and willnever abdicatemy resposibility toserve the community with prideand diligence.”

ZWIDE Township residents have devel-oped a big passion for swimming, thanksto the life guards at the Zwide Swimming-pool in Tunyiswa Street.

The poolwas opened last year by theNel-son Mandela Bay Municipality. It is openseven-days a week from 10am until 6pm.In an attempt to attract more black peo-

ple to swimming to reduce drowning inci-dents, the Zwide Lifeguards have devel-oped the Learn to Swim course which isaimed at those who do not know how toswim, aswell as beginners, saidXolaNdzo-toyi, a life guard.“We decided upon this programme,

which we offer free of charge, in order tohelp our brothers and sisters tomaster theart of swimming which is not only forsport, but also good for our health,” saidNdzotoyi, adding that they have since no-ticed a huge interest in swimming amongthe township folk.

Ndzotoyi said that disabled members ofthe community were also welcome to jointhe Learn to Swim Program which takesplace every Monday to Friday from 6pm -7pm.According to life guard Amanda Wit-

booi,many township schools send about 20pupils a day for a 30minute period to learnto swim.Witbooi, who is a qualified life guard

who learnt to swimas a SundaysRiver Pri-mary School pupil in Kirkwood manyyears ago, believes there is so much valuein swimming.“Swimming is exercise that keeps you fit

and healthy,” she said, adding that she isproud that she is able to earn a living doingwhat she loves.“We also have a baby pool which is ideal

for children from ages 2-6 years,” saidXhanti Fulani, adding that they don’t onlyteach children to swim but they alsomoni-tor their progress.Admission to the swimming pool is R4

for children and R7,50 for adults.

WOOLWORTHS recently held the first of itsdietitian-led store tours in Port Elizabeththrough the food market at their Greenacresbranch focusing on tips for packing a bal-anced lunchbox providing nutritional advicefor parents of school-going children.The tour was led by Cindy Chin, the new

registered dietitian at Woolworths, whoworks together with a team of three other die-titians.Cindy holds a Bachelor of Science Degree

from Wits University and a Bachelor of Sci-ence Medical Honours in Nutrition and Die-

tetics from the University of Cape Town. Sheis also amomof toddlers and knows the strug-gles parents face to ensure that their chil-dren’s nutritional needs are met.“One of the biggest obstacles parents face

is a busy lifestyle and not enough time to plannutritious meals. Another barrier is people’sperception that healthy food is expensive,which in fact it isn’t. Children’s fussinessadds to these problems too,” said Cindy.According to Cindy, children should, how-

ever, not be forced to eat foods theydonot like.“Food and eating are associated with cele-

bration and should not be a source of punish-ment for a child.Meal times should be relaxedand enjoyable”.“Rather encourage them to try new foods.

Let them eat just a bit of the food. Toddlerstake about 10 to 15 times before they accepta new food taste. Parents should not give upafter the first two attempts,” said Cindy.Cindy says the first step to educate one’s

children in good nutrition is to involve themin the shopping when possible.“Give them a choice between two fruits for

example. This will empower them to make achoice while you give them guidance inchoosing healthy foods. Sweets should alsonot be banned, but allowed in moderation.”While busy lifestyles don’t always allow for

a leisurely breakfast, Cindy says it is an im-portant refuelling meal to start the day forgrowing bodies, which should be a goodsource of fibre and dairy.“If your kids don’t have time to eat break-

fast at home in the mornings or are not hun-gry that early, make smoothies for themwithfruit and dairy, or yoghurt which they caneat and drink on their way to school,” shesaid.Children should also have routine dinner

times. “If they don’t finish their food becausetheydon’t like it andcome toask for food laterthat evening,make sure that theyunderstandmom’s kitchen is now closed. Always keephealthy snacks in the fridge, such as yoghurt,and fruit and finger vegetables with dipswhich they can help themselves to and willtide them over to breakfast,” she said.Feeding a child is as easy as pie - or pasta.

Cindy likes to hide mashed up butternut andcauliflower in her children’s pasta dishes.Someof theWoolworths’ dinners for childrenalso contain vegetables that are mashed up,like sweetpotato, butternut and carrots.

. TheWoolworths’Mom’s tours are part ofthe Making the Difference Educational Pro-gramme run by Woolworths. The tours arehosted inpartnershipwith theSportsScienceInstitute and its dietetic practice, ShellyMeltzer & Associates. The tours cover threetopics, “Balanced Lunchboxes”, “Quick &

Easy Meals for the Whole Family” and“Brainfood for Exams”. These will take placeat different Woolworths’ stores nationallyduring the year and are open to customersand parents of learners from participatingschools, as well as the general public.The tours are free and can be booked as

space is limited.Contact Amanda Mhluzi on 0 021 407 2307

NELSON Mandela Bay school-going childrenwere kept busy during the Easter Holiday andthey enjoyed it!

The future leaders used the study break asthe break to study as they were both enter-tained and educated with activities rangingfrom handwork, treasure-hunting and storytime at 14 municipal libraries around themet-ro. The children ranging in ages from 5-13years also had fun with Bellino the clown - allthanks to theNelsonMandelaBayMunicipali-ty Programme.Working under the theme “Easter” the little

ones made an Easter Bunny and hunted for

Easter eggs at Algoa Park Library while kidsat the Allanridge Library had time to tell sto-ries andmake a chick card and Easter Bunny.The 6-12 year olds had dot-to-dot drawing

and colouring-in before making an Easter An-gel at Elukhanyisweni Library. At KwaDwesiand KwaNobuhle Libraries they made paperplate stegosauruses as well as a dinosaur doorhanger.Community Library Assistants like Yonela

Skotoyi in New Brighton Library and Bongi-we Mavaleliso in Motherwell Library hadtheir hands full with little children duringtheir three days of education and fun.“It was nice working with the children.

nership contracts with the schools simi-lar to the one with Cowan High School,through which funding is made availablefor the needs identified by the schools.Now in its second year, the CowanHigh

partnership has facilitated the provisionof a rainwater harvesting system, whichhashelped the school to collect its ownwa-ter- up to four 10 kilolitres (kl) reservoirs-and has alleviated the water shortagesthey had experienced previously.In the second phase, which will be pre-

sented formally next week, Cowan Highhas done renovations in various sectionsof the school. They include plumbing (gey-ser, toilets, seats, cisterns, and basins in-stallation), painting of ablution blocksand ceiling repairs.“I’m pleased that we are going back to

school Executive project is championedby Sanlam’s senior executives’ involve-ment where the Sanlam Exco membersare taken back to their Alma Mater. ThisCSI vehicle is a long-term investment intoour nation’s future.“Sanlam’s business is focused on long

term relationships based on trust, and ourcontribution to the development of educa-tion at this and other schools through the

Sanlam Foundation, is part of buildingand strengthening those relations for themutual benefit of the communities inwhich we operate and for ourselves,” saidMvusi.The Sanlam Foundation’s Executive

WITH a few games left Real City trounced SA-FA Nelson Mandela Bay SAB Regional

League hopefuls Lion City 3-1 at MotherwellNU9 Stadium recently.

It took Real City about three minutes toscore their first goal courtesy oftheir wing back Aphiwe Mambuku.What amazed the fans was the man-ner in which Lion City dominatedtheir counterparts but they couldnot penetrate their defence.Sakhile “Leds” Nkewana scored

Real City’s second goal. After Nke-wana’s goal, Real City were reducedto nine men following the red cardsflashed by referee Mkhuseli Douzeto Nkewana and Lifa “Cena” Teyise.But the drama did not deter Real

City from accomplishing their mis-sion as Zukisani Vayo banged thethird goal to put his side 3-0 up. LionCity’s goal came courtesy of Tham-sanqa Gwabeni.Other SAFA Nelson Mandela Bay

South Africa (BSA)’s recently sent circu-lar he reminded boxing licensees that thecontracts boxers signed this yearwithpro-moters should be over 12-months and al-low boxers a maximum of four-fights anda minimum of two fights.“I have negotiated the fights and the

purses for these two fighters and I am sat-isfied with the deal,” said Nkebe, addingthat the fights will put the duo in line forgreater things in their respective divi-

sions.“I am very hopeful that this highly tal-

ented duo will show their mettle againsthard opposition from East London,” saidNkebe who is still asking BSA for the rea-son why an active and winning Danielswho was rated number six in the countrywas taken off ratings.“Otherwise Daniels must beat Mvula to

show that he is currently one of the bestjunior bantamweights in the country,”said Nkebe.
