MEMBERSoftheSouthAfricanPolice Service (SAPS) in PortElizabeth are investigatingthe claims that the delivery ofhouses in Motherwell, have

beenfraughtwithallegationsof fraudandcor-ruption.

There are allegations that some people areillegally getting houses ahead of those whohave long been in the queue for this basic hu-man need. At the forefront of this outcry is theSouth African National Civic Organisation(SANCO), Motherwell Branch.

“There is so much corruption in the alloca-tion of houses in Ward 54. This has been goingon for quite some time now and we are sickandtiredof it,”saidSANCOBranchChairper-son Siphiwo Dayimani.

Dayimani mentioned a number of casesthat irked members of the community whocharged SANCO to take action.

“A case has been opened. We are busy withinvestigations and cannot mention names atthis juncture as no one has been charged justyet,” said police spokesperson Captain AndreBeetge, adding that they were still collectingand collating information.

According to Dayimani, “We’ve got a younglady, a lodger who became so active in the lo-

cal structures only to see herself getting ahouse ahead of many people who have beenon the waiting list.”

“I servedwithher in the local structureandcannot remember any meeting resolution al-luding to the fact that she must get a houseahead of anyone else in the queue,” said NU29 resident Vulikhaya Pasiya.

Pasiya claims he and other residents werebeing “bypassed” in the housing allocationand he did not know why. According to him,a full-scale investigation of fraud and corrup-tion was needed in the ward.

Dayimanisaid,“Whenwe(agroupofshackdwellers) illegally occupied land in the areapolice were quickly called, a case was opened

and we were charged with land invasion andgiven a court order. Why not with her?”

“We always encourage members of the pub-lic to report any form or signs of corruptionwithin the government housing delivery tothe law enforcement officers for a formal in-vestigation to be done,” said Municipalspokesperson Mthubanzi Mniki, adding thattheywerealso encouragingpeoplesuspectingcorrupt activities to bring the evidence or in-formation to the municipal housing directo-rate for internal investigations to be done.

“We are committed to fighting corruptionwherever it manifests itself within all munici-pal departments, even if our own municipalofficials or councillors are implicated.

IthembelihleComprehensive,Cowan,Doug-las Mbopha, Newell, Morningside, LawsonBrown and Strelitzia High, according to Ko-po.“Without sponsorship, our learners strug-

gle to raise money for taxi fare to and fromclasses, often feel pressurised to attendschool and other events on Saturday morn-ings and are discouraged from attending byadverse weather conditions and personalstress,” he said.This, however, could change if interested

and able companies and individuals fromtheFriendlyCitycouldsupport thisventure,saidKopo, adding that therewill be somuchmusic, danceandpoetry talentondisplayonthe day.The show starts at 12 noon till 5pm. Tick-

ets are available now at Algoa Campus atR15 each. They cost R20 at the door. – NCEBADLADLA

PORT Elizabeth lad Siyanda Qoto (20) wantsto make a difference in the lives of the youthof Nelson Mandela Bay in a huge way.

Qoto is the founder and director of WhatCan I Do Project, a non-profitmaking organi-sation (NPO) which is aimed at helping theyouth find a purpose inlife.Through this newly

established project, Qo-to, of Westering, be-lieves that the youth arethe agents of change. Tothat effect, he said, hewas hoping to changepeople’s perspectiveabout giving back to thecommunity.According to this

highly philosophicalNelson Mandela Metro-politan University(NMMU) BA Psycholo-gy second year student,one does not need to bein his or her 30s or 40sto make a difference inlife.“At the youngest age,

people can impact posi-tively on others and ig-nite change,” said Qoto,adding that he was aware though, that to dothis, one had to start with baby steps.Abookwormandmotivational speakerwho

goes out to schools to encourage and assistlearners to start debating societies and en-gage in extensive reading, Qoto said, “I be-lieve in the power ofwords and acting on your

aims.”He said he started his motivational talks

first at his alma maters, Papenkuils Primaryand St Thomas High Schools respectively. Todate, he has been to Sophakama,NewtonTechand Alex High Schools where he exhorted theyouth to see the importance of education asthe key to liberation.“Massive reading, debating and public

speaking helpedshape my intellectualdevelopment. Now Iassist people to starttheir own initiativesin terms of music pro-grammes, fine arts,mentoring and anadopt-a-school pro-gramme through theWhat Can I Do Projectplatform,” said Qoto.He attributes his in-quisitive mind and so-cialisation as a criti-cal thinker who wasalways to utilise theintellectual genes ofhis father, CharlesQo-to, a NMMU lecturer.In his parting shots,

Qoto said, “I am alsodriven by the threepillars taken from thefollowing quotes: JFKennedy once said,

‘Ask not what America can do for you, butwhat you can do for America”. MahatmaGhandi said, ‘Be the change that you want tosee’ and the writer Maya Angelou once said,‘If you don’t like something, change it. If youcannot change it, change your attitude. Nevercomplain.”

EVERY TIME there is a benefit football tour-nament played it is in honour of a player. Andnot for a coach, referee or an administrator,said Nobuhle-Despatch Football Association(NODEFA) President Monde Mhletywa.

In an attempt to change that, according toMhletywa, Nodefa has decided to honour

long timeFootball AdministratorVintwembiChristianWine (87) of KwaNobuhle in Uiten-hage.A benefit tournament in honour of a

staunch football lover, youth developer andastute administrator Wine is currently tak-ing place at Jabavu stadium, KwaNobuhlesince 2 July. There are 32 teams that startedand the final will be played this Saturday 20July in honour of this living legend.“We decided to run local Derbys. to attract

football loving fans because utat’uWine de-serves the best,” said Mhletywa.The old horse has been around since the

days of Udisbo and KwaNosa, when Uitenha-ge, Langa and Despatch played in separateleagues. He contributed in the formation ofNODEFA and one of his clubs is involved inthe tournament.Wine will also be honoured with a Life

Presidency of NODEFA.“In all his time of involvement, utat’

uWine has been contributing towards youthdevelopment. He loves junior football and isalways on the fieldwhen they play,” saidMh-letywa, adding that it alsomade sense to hon-our the old man as NODEFA is focusing onyouth development to lay a solid foundationfor the future of local football.Therearealsonetball gamesplayed inhon-

our of Wine - as he also played a part in thedevelopment of the sport in the townships.Mhletywa told PE Express Indaba that

those that formed football clubs in the past,like Wine, also formed netball clubs, to keepboth boys and girls off the streets, drugs andcrime.“There is a also a Fun Run taking place,”

said Mhletywa, thanking Gerald Majola ofSedgars. Majola is going to sponsor the win-ners with kits while Local Football Associa-

tion’s (LFAs) presidents have agreed to payR200 each towards the funds raised. He saidtheywere hoping to raise R15 000 to buy some-thing for Wine.“I am humbled and overwhelmed. This is

indeed an honour I’ll always cherish,” said adelighted Wine.“His whole life has been with football and

I have been supporting him because he lovesit,” said his wife, mama Veronica Wine.

BOXING South Africa (BSA) Nelson MandelaBay is in the process of recruiting female box-ing Ring Officials.

To this end, Nelson Mandela Bay AmateurBoxing Organisation (NMBABO) administra-torAndiswaNobazahas joined the profession-

al ranks as an official. Nobaza of Motherwell,joins KwaZakhele’s Noni Fukuthwa who hasbeen a rose among the thorns for more than 10years in the sport.Accepting Nobaza’s application for registra-

tion, BSANelsonMandela Bay Service Provid-er Mthunzi Mapitiza said BSA was recruitingthe women folk in line with government’s callfor representation.

Mapitizasaid therewere twoother femalere-cruits that he was busy training with Nobazathat hewill unveil in the not too distant future.Female boxers were authorised to enter the

ring as boxers since 2005 and some like NoniTenge and Unathi Myekeni went on to winWorld championship belts in their respectivedivisions. The likes of Gabisile Tshabalala andNomandithini Ndyambo are national champi-

ons. This, however, is not seen in the country’sreferees and judges, and that is a concern forBSA, according to Mapitiza.“We cannot only have Siya Vabaza in East

London, Noni Fukuthwa here, Sylvia Mokailain Gauteng and that’s it.We needmorewomentocomeonboardas ringofficials aswell asbox-ers, trainers, managers and promoters,” saidMapitiza.
