Prioritise pads, not condoms: MEC Ntshalintshali BONTLE RAPODILE DELMAS - Children from disadvantaged homes, specifically the girl child, should not miss school because they are in their period. As such, the Department of Social Development in Mpumalanga has jumped on the bandwagon of providing Dignity Packs to learners in Mpumalanga schools. The Victor Khanye Local Municipality (VKLM), which forms part of the Nkangala District, was one such beneficiary. MEC Lindiwe Ntshalintshali personally visited Steve Tshwete Municipality on 19 January and VKLM on 20 January 2023, to deliver the Dignity Packs to learners from identified schools in the municipalities. Botleng Secondary School and Phaphamani Secondary School were two of the identified schools in Delmas. Ntshalintshali said the programme is aimed at ensuring that no learner misses classes because of circumstances that come naturally. She said the programme also aims to restore the dignity of the girl child. "We are here to give you the necessary support so that the pass rate will not

drop but improve, because the class of 2022 has worked hard to put the pass rate where it is today,” she said. “One of the main reasons we are here is because the survey has told us that a girl child is not able to go to school due to menstruation, and sometimes tend to use tissues, newspapers and cloths."

Ntshalintshali further said the government needs to prioritise pads, not condoms, because sex is a choice and menstruation is natural. She further emphasised that the pads they have provided are for the learners to use, not to sell for own gain. The department gave each learner pads for

that will last for three months, and they committed themselves to continuously delivering to each school. The department also provides social grants, food parcels and if there is a need for school uniforms, the department will also provide these as well.

A ''Renewed Mind'' Is Essential by Pastor Chuck Swindoll Romans 12:1-2 Let's talk about some positive input on the correct mentality of a servant. Is it possible to think so much like Christ that our minds operate on a different plane than others around us? Not only is it possible—it's essential! The familiar words of Paul in Romans 12:1–2 need to be reviewed. Therefore I urge you, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living and holy sacrifice, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service of worship. And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect. (Romans 12:1–2) At this point in his letter to the believers in Rome, Paul drops to his

knees, as it were, and pleads. That means it's important, perhaps one of the most important truths he would ever write. After urging us to present ourselves to God as living sacrifices, he adds a warning. Let's read it this time as J. B. Phillips paraphrased it: Don't let the world around you squeeze you into its own mold, but let God remold your minds from within, so that you may prove in practice that the plan of God for you is good, meets all his demands and moves toward the goal of true maturity (Romans 12:2 PHILLIPS). Stop being squeezed in! Quit aping the system of thought that surrounds you, its line of reasoning, its method of operation, its style and techniques! How? By a radical transformation within. By a renewed thought pattern that demonstrates authentic godlikeness. Living differently begins with thinking differently. A life that is characterized by serving others begins in a mind that is convinced of such a life. That explains why that great section of Scripture describing Christ's willingness to take upon Himself the form of a servant begins with the words: "Have this attitude in yourselves which was also in Christ Jesus" (Philippians 2:5). Jesus's life of serving was the o u t w o r k i n g o f H i s mind—"unsqueezed" by the world system in all its selfishness—and remains, forever, our example to follow. For us to be true servants of God, our minds must be renewed.

Premier comes home bearing gifts Computers, school uniform donation for Vuma NOTHANDO MAKHUBELA

EMALAHLENI –Mpumalanga Premier Refilwe Mtsweni-Tsipane has urged pupils and residents to look after the school's resources, when she paid a visit to her former school in Lynnville, Emalahleni. Mtsweni-Tsipane, who also donated 25 computers and school uniforms to 100 boys and girls learners, said Vuma Primary School is the same school where she started her schooling many years ago, which for her, is basically going back to her roots. “I'm very much grateful to be here,” she said. “I am happy to see that the school hasn't changed, the learners and school teachers are still disciplined. We want to appeal to our communities to support and protect the assets that have been brought to Vuma Primary School for the benefit of their children. They must not vandalise the assets that have been brought here. We also plead with the nearby the schools to make sure that they guard the assets that have been brought to the school.” Mtsweni-Tsipane also noted that the learners in the school don't have shelter during assembly, and said this will be built so that the learners are protected from the elements such as the sun and rain while they are

gathered for the assembly. She expressed her appreciation for the work and confidence that has been brought by the principal to the school. School principal Sipho Masimula said he did not have enough words to thank Premier Refilwe M t s w e n i - Ts i p a n e a n d t h e sponsors who assisted the school. He said the shelter and school uniforms donated will be very helpful to the learners. Grade 7 learner Thea Gumedze expressed gratitude for the donated school uniforms, shoes and computers. Thea said most of the learners are from poor backgrounds, so the uniforms will really help them a lot, while the computers will improve teaching and learning at the school. Premier Mtsweni-Tsipane was accompanied by Mpumalanga Department of Education MEC Bonakele Majuba, Emalahleni Local Municipality mayor Conny Nkalitshana, former Emalahleni Local Municipality MMC for Environmental Affairs Thabang Mathebula and other stakeholders.

Mkhondo murders' catch-and-release twist Third suspect in councillors murder released LUCAS SHONGWE \MPUMALANGA – The third suspect nabbed in connection with the murder of three people, amongst them Mkhondo ANC ward councillor Sibonelo Ntshangase (36), has been released. The 40 year-old man, believed to be from KZN, was detained and charged with murder in what is believed to be politically motivated killings. The man was expected to appear in court on Wednesday. On Monday, the police arrested former mayor of Mkhondo Local Municipality, Vusi Motha, who was charged with possession of an unlicensed firearm, and Willington Sangweni, who faces fraud,

contravention of the Firearms Control Act and contravention of the Private Security Industry Regulatory Authority (PSiRA) Act. However, on Wednesday, the case against the third suspect had not been enrolled for appearance in the Piet Retief Magistrates Court, reportedly due to lack of evidence. Motha and Sangweni had already appeared in the Piet Retief Magistrates Court on Tuesday and their case was postponed to 24 January for formal bail application. Sibonelo Ntshangase, his friend Sizwe Bingo (40) and Sandile Khumalo (51), a mechanic, were shot and killed last Friday at Longhomes location in Mkhondo. According to police reports, multiple shots were fired at the

Parents, learners shut down school over water School hasn't had proper ablution facilities in 23 years NOTHANDO MAKHUBELA EMALAHLENI – For 23 years, this school has reportedly not had running water or proper, hygienic ablution facilities. On Thursday, 19 January, the parents, some who attended the same school in their youth, descended on the school accompanied by the learners, to demand clean toilets and water, lest their children succumb to illnesses. Khonzimfundo Combined School in Ackerville, Emalahleni, has reportedly been battling with water and clean toilets for the past 23 years. Since the school's establishment, the toilets have not been renovated. Nkosami Mahlangu, a teacher at Khonzimfundo, said the school has faced challenges with water and filthy toilets for over two decades. “Since I arrived in the school, the school has been struggling with proper hygiene," said Mahlangu. "The toilets are not clean due to the lack of water and toilet systems are not working at all. The toilets need to be replaced with new ones. Every time the toilets are

fixed, a few days later they are blocked again. The stench inside the toilets is unbearable. This affects all of us, teachers and learners.” Concerned parent Duduzile Kunene said as parents, they gathered and shut down the school because their children do not have water and toilets on the school premises. The children are suffering, especially after they had eaten food during lunch time. "It is stressful for them since they don't have toilets to go and relief themselves at," she said. "They can't flush the toilets due to water shortage. We tried to approach the Emalahleni Local Municipality, and they have only once supplied the school with water from a water tanker. The water was used by the women who cook for the learners on the school, of which it was not enough. That was the only time the municipality supplied the school with water.” Questions were sent to the Mpumalanga Department of Education. Department spokesperson Jasper Zwane had not responded by the time going to print.

trio. Mbingo, who was inside a bakkie, was also fatally wounded along with Khumalo and Ntshangase. Thereafter the suspects fled in an unknown direction. In a Facebook video post that has since gone viral, Ntshangase revealed prior to his death, that if he dies, people of Mkhondo should know that Motha, known as Sgemegeme, had killed him. He said Motha has a hit list and intends to kill them because they are revealing his alleged corruption. He implicated Motha in the death of another ANC member, whom he didn't identify by name. He said comrades are being killed for speaking the truth. Mpumalanga Police spokesperson Brigadier Selvy Mohlala confirmed that the matter had not been enrolled, hence the third suspect's release. Premier Refilwe Mtshweni-Tsipane said she was satisfied about what she referred to as police's swift action which led to the arrest of the suspects. She applauded a special multidisciplinary task team led by Provincial Police Commissioner Daphney Manamela for the arrests. Mtshweni-Tsipane said the arrests signify a high level of commitment on an emotional matter. "This is truly a victory for the bereaved families as well as the people of Mkhondo," she said. "I am certain that the hard work of the police will not only bring justice for the families, but will further restore community trust in

our police. So far, three arrests have been made since the establishment of the special investigations team. These include former Mkhondo Executive Mayor, Mr Vusi Motha. The Premier also urged police to bolster the investigation team, in order to crack unresolved murder cases across Mpumalanga.

“Currently, we have several cases, including 12 murder cases, that are politically-related, dating back to 2009," she said. "We need to work hard to resolve them and help the bereaved families to find closure. It is only when killers have been sentenced that the families can find closure."

Delmas First in bid to turn town into economic hub BONTLE RAPODILE DELMAS - No other town in Mpumalanga is situated in a better economic place like Delmas, which means the town should have been the economic hub in Mpumalanga. On the contrary, the town has an enormous water and electricity debt, mostly because most of the residents do not pay municipal rates and taxes, and have the mentality that they should not pay for services that are not up to standard. On 13 January, Delmas First held a meeting at the Joheve Conference Centre, which was attended by amongst others business people such as Celso De Santos, Joleen Schoembee, Henry Masilela, Kobus Human, Thabo Motau and the Executive Mayor. The meeting agreed that because of the state the town is in, it doesn't have investors that can buy into the town, or help to rebuild it. "Investors need stability," an attendee said. "We need to note that this is not a take-over bid; we are not going to take over the municipality but we are going

to work with them. We will avoid working on something they already asked a mine to do, or already have someone who pledged to do it. Delmas First will also not allow people to extort businesses but we want to make people feel like they belong. One of our goals is to convince companies to open manufacturing branches here in Delmas, that way we will be reviving the industrial section with old factories and opening new ones." Delmas First also wants to see improvement in the bid to reduce unemployment in the town. They also committed themselves to hold the town council and the municipality accountable. "As much as we don't want to point fingers, but someone must be held accountable," they said. "We have three phases: immediate, mid-term and long term." The taxi industry of Delmas has also been urged to be active in this initiative. The meeting also agreed that the initiative does not need business activists but business people, and that commitment is what is needed.

"If you are here because you need a job or a business opportunity, then you are in the wrong place," they stressed. "Together we stand but divided we fall." Businessman Celso De Santos committed to selling Delmas First bottles in his businesses. The money made from that will be pushed into current projects. Celso has also committed himself to increasing the number of employees that his kids and himself currently have. Drug addicts who are car guards and who want to be helped will be trained and assisted in any possible way the initiative can. No private deals will be made as everything is transparent. The meeting agreed that having an investment book will help keep track of funds and on which project they are currently working on. The engagement of progressive parties like Afri-Forum will be done. There will be no politics, and definitely no takers but givers. Service delivery such as the maintenance of roads, cutting of grass, painting of sidewalks, infrastructure and traffic light maintenance and

safety and security will be encouraged. “Compliance of bylaw enforcement, trained and identified car, train and town guards and supporting of CPOs such as Valke and the Botleng Antihijack Unit will be encouraged," it was added as step towards endin crime within the municipality. "Delmas First

will also consolidate response from security division, economic growth, promote and support local businesses, consolidate local businesses' buying power, explore possibilities of reviving old factors and open new ones."

Henry “Gossa” Masilela, one of the pioneers of Delmas First initiative

Business doubts Ramaphosa's 'solution' to end loadshedding LUCAS SHONGWE MIDDELBURG – Business has apparently shown lack of confidence in President Cyril Ramaphosa's socalled '10-point power crisis plan' to deal with the energy crisis in the country. In July last year Ramaphosa, a billionaire featured in the top ten list of wealthy mzansi politicians, unveiled a 10-point power crisis plan which included scraping of licensing requirements for private energy generation, importing power from neighbouring countries such as Zambia and Botswana, and encouraging businesses and households to install rooftop solar and to connect to the grid. This follows a process of unbundling Eskom into three entities namely generation, distribution and transmission, Ramaphosa announced during the State of the Nation Address in February 2019. He said the measures were aimed at stabilising Eskom's finances, ensure security of electricity supply, and establish the basis for long-term sustainability. The embattled power utility, Eskom, is currently implementing stage 6 loadshedding, much to the annoyance of the layman and frustration to the business sector. The South African Chamber of Commerce and Industry (SACCI) said it is worried that the turnaround strategies have not produced any fruits till now. “We do appreciate that Eskom is under pressure, but we are more worried about the fact that the turnaround strategies are actually not addressing the Eskom problem,” SACCI

Advocate Mtho Xulu, President of South African Chamber of Commerce and Industry, says government's turnaround strategies are not solving Eskom's problems.

President Advocate Mtho Xulu told Highveld Chronicle in an interview. “So it gives us a sense that there is no transparency what is really going on, and those who are tasked to turn around Eskom do not have full accountability to South Africans about what is going on. That means they are not doing their jobs properly.” “If you look at the track record of the task teams and the working groups that government has formed, they have not produced any results. They have been going on for over 10 years now. It's task teams, war rooms, all of them have not given us anything because stage 6 loadshedding has become indefinite now, meaning we are worse off than where we started 10 years ago. So all interventions have, unfortunately, not borne any fruit. If we are going to continue with these kind of interventions, we are not going to solve the problem.” As part of solution, or at least keep the economy alive and jobs running, the advocate said SACCI believes big businesses should be allowed to generate their own energy. He said SACCI encourages businesses to invest more in private generation and government must support that. “But we are also saying that private generation should not be a replacement of Eskom,” he said. “We need a power utility that works because many people depend on it. If Eskom's power was affordable, business will buy the power. So it would be a combination of fixing Eskom, in the short term, and also, concurrently, supporting businesses to promote and drive self generation.”

Hoërskool Middelburg had a combined total of 188 distinctions in various subjects and all the 161 learners passed.

"This is the reason why we are maintaining this kind of performance we have today," he said. "Even during the Covid-19 pandemic, we managed to up our performance and now I am

glad that we have defended it. We are now pining our hopes on the class of 2023 that they will do the same."

Witbank High School scores 76,1% pass rate NOTHANDO MAKHUBELA EMALAHLENI – The 228 learners who registered for the 2022 matric exams at Witbank High School, have reason to celebrate – well, most of them. The school obtained a 76,1% pass rate, a drop from the 2021 pass of 84%. However, the 2022 results have given the school a reason to celebrate because only 165 learners were registered for the exams in 2021, compared to 228 for 2022. Nonhlanhla Sibiya, who obtained acceptance to a Bachelor's degree at university, said she is over the moon about her achievement. Nonhlanhla studied day and night to make sure that she gets good marks. “I am very excited that finally I am leaving the high school life and going to university,” she said. “I have been accepted at the University of Pretoria, I want to study electrical engineering. As much as I am happy, I'm sad at the same time because I will be leaving my mother behind.” Likhanye Jiya also shared her

She has also been accepted at the University of Pretoria. Lumkile Sithole is excited to have passed because she knows that she has made her parents proud. She has applied to three universities and is still waiting for a response. Austin Osinga, the principal of Witbank High School, expressed his appreciation for the learners and teachers' efforts. The school registered a big number of learners for 2022, and he said he is happy that they did very well. “I am happy with the results as the majority of the learners were doing pure Mathematics and Science subjects,” he said. “I wish them all the best in all the

Presenting the provincial results at a full packed Mpumalanga University, MEC Bonakele Majuba said there were 71 369 full-time learners who registered to write the 2022 National Senior Certificate Examination in 566 Examination Centers.

she said. "As parents we need to support our children, not only when they are in matric, but from primary schooling so that they get used to studying."

Mistakes on road to be fixed before handover LUCAS SHONGWE MIDDELBURG–The Steve Tshwete Local Municipality will discuss several minor issues with the main contractor before signing off phase one of the road construction project in Avalon, Mhluzi, following claims of shoddy work by residents. Members of the Municipal Infrastructure Portfolio Committee conducted an inspection in loco on Monday, 16 January. Residents were concerned after they discovered that parts of the 1,4km road had become waterlogged and clogged with mud and debris after the November and December's heavy downpours. Phase one of the multi-year project totaling R17 million, was completed in August last year. Johann Dyason, chairperson of the Infrastructure Portfolio Committee, said asphalt thickness, kerbing, road surfacing and stormwater pipes are some of the issues that will form part of the discussions with the main contractor. Middelburg Hendrina Residents Forum's Thato Mathunyane, who is also committee member, enquired if it was procedural to start constructing the road and thereafter install storm water pipes and drainage. “Is that how it is supposed to be done?” he asked. In response, Lindiwe Silolo, Director Engineering and Civil Construction, said installation of stormwater drainage system can be

done in two ways depending on the road layout. It can be done before, and also after road construction. “In this case, it will be done after, on the side of the road, during the second phase because this is a continuous project," she said. Silolo also refuted claims that the road was complete. She said the municipality has not signed or issued a completion certificate to the contractor. A completion certificate,

she said, will be signed after all the identified challenges have been fixed. MMC for Infrastructure, Sekgwele Marumo, said the identified issues will be fixed. He said there are still some snags which need to be corrected because somethings had not been correctly done. “As much as the contractor is still on site, they are going to correct the mistakes that we have picked during our inspection," he said.

Electricity hikes will hit hard on the poor "Failures of the national government and Eskom are now being passed on to the poor and hard-working men and women of South Africa" LUCAS SHONGWE SOUTH AFRICA - Trade unions have denounced a decision by the national regulator to approve Eskom's electricity tariff increase – on top of the escalating rolling blackouts – as insensitive and careless. The National Energy Regulator of South Africa (NERSA) on Thursday, 12 January approved a 18.65% increase for the 2023 financial year starting on the 1st of April. An additional 12.74% increase was also approved for 2024, putting the total hike at 31,9%. The Congress of South African Trade Unions (COSATU) said the decision will be a devastating blow to workers and businesses struggling to survive in an economy that is still reeling from Covid-19 lockdowns and rampant inflation. "Whilst this increase is less than the 32% hike Eskom requested, it will still be devastating for the unemployed and those who are dealing with wage stagnation,” said COSATU national spokesperson, Sizwe Pamla. “It will be a further burden to companies

struggling to keep afloat because of a stagnant economy." The South African Federation of Trade Unions (SAFTU) said the poor and working class, in particular women, are going to find it almost impossible to live normal lives, as if they were not already in a situation of impossibility, as a result of the escalating cost of living. "We were already paying 16% more for electricity last year,” said SAFTU Seneral Secretary Zwelinzima Vavi. “The fact that you can't afford electricity means you're going to have to go back to fetching wood." NERSA approved a 9.6% in April last year. South Africans are currently paying R2,15 per kWh, and the recent hike will mean they will have to dig deeper, at R3,15 per kWh. "The energy regulator attempted to strike a balance between Eskom's financial sustainability issues, the impact on the South African economy, and affordability of electricity services to customers," said NERSA chairperson, Thembani Bukula.

Mthimunye calls for assistance of middle class learners LUCAS SHONGWE MIDDELBURG – Patron of the Paul Mthimunye Bursary Fund (PMBF), Paul Mthimunye, called on funders to

consider academically deserving learners from families earning more than the government's National Students Financial Aid Scheme (NSFAS) cap. The retired education specialist, who is also a former schools inspector and circuit manager, was speaking during PMBF's 20th celebration event at Mphanama High School in Mhluzi on Saturday, 14 January. He said NSFAS provides funding to students from working class or poor families whose combined household income is not more than R350 000 per annum. Mthimunye said there are many learners who are disqualified by NSFAS because of the R350 000 minimum requirement. “Some of them are called the middle class children because their parents earn more than the R350 000 cap NSFAS has set,” he said. “Those children should also be assisted financially because the R350 000 combined income is very little while education has become expensive. You cannot disqualify a learner for that

amount.” Mthimunye said PMBF had raised funding to pay tuition fees for two students at the University of Cape Town at around R187 000 a year. If parents have a joint income of R350 000 a year, and R187 000 has to go to the fees of one child, what more if there are more children who have to go to university? Mthimunye urged business to come in and close the gap. “We can do that if we put our hands together,” he said. “There are resources in the private sector, and if we can establish solid relations, we can improve the lives of those learners. Let me also take this opportunity and say a special thank you to Columbus Stainless Steel for supporting us all these years since inception. They supported us in this event by donating all the token of appreciation that you see here.” The PMBF was launched in 2002 with a vision to give financial assistance to learners from disadvantaged families who are academically deserving, in and around the Steve Tshwete

Week-long dry spell sparks protest Residents burn tyres over 'no-show' water tankers NOTHANDO MAKHUBELA

EMALAHLENI – Their taps ran dry a long time a long time ago, and their only source of water has been from a water tanker provided by the municipality. But when a week went by without the water tankers bringing the muchneeded water, the residents went on a rampage. Residents of Duvha Park in Emalahleni took to the streets in the wee hours of Wednesday, 18 January, and barricaded the R544 Road at the El Paso traffic lights with burning tyres. The residents were demanding water, stating that it had been a week since the water tankers last brought to the area, while a nearby Jojo tank has also run

dry. The road was cleared at about 7am, by personnel from the Expanded Public Works Programme under the watchful eye of the South African police Service. But around lunchtime, the residents once again took to the streets barricading roads with burning tyres. Duvha Park resident Lucia Mabuza said they normally get their water from water tankers supplied by the municipality, as they do not have running water in their yards. This, she said, is stressful and hard enough for the residents. “To be without water for a week is stressful, especially now that our children have to go to school,” she said. “They need to bathe every morning. The municipality doesn't care about us.” Ward 19 councillor Tjatji Tshogane

said he was not aware that the water tankers delayed to provide water in Duvha. He said the residents also did not bring this matter to his attention. “I am pleading with the community to call me and report the delay in the water supply so that we can arrange for them to have water,” he said. “I will also reach out to the community to ask about the water supply in the area and make arrangements before the community Jojo tanks are all run out of water.” He further urged the residents to avoid resorting to protests all the time because doing so damages other municipal assets like roads. This, he said, forces the municipality to spend money repairing the damaged infrastructure.

municipality. So far, the fund has assisted over 300 students. PMBF spokesperson George Mahlangu over 100 university students were able to get bursaries from the fund while more than 200 high school learners were assisted with grants. Malethabo Mahlangu, a finance professional holding a Bachelor of Commerce in Accounting, a Postgraduate Diploma in Media Financial Management, Management Accounting, a Chartered Global Management Accountant and Master of Business Administration, told the publication how the PMBF came to her aid. “The fund gave me a kick start in funding my undergraduate education,” she said. “Today I have made a name for myself in the country, contributing positively in our generation. I am a black woman dominating in the boardroom, taking up space and living my answered prayers.” Dr Ntombi Makhanya, a medical school graduate, said the PMBF assisted her throughout her medical LOST OR DESTROYED DEED Notice is hereby given in terms of Regulation 68 of the Deed Registries Act 1937, of the intention to apply for the issue of a certified copy of a Deed of Transfer T96954/2003 passed by DELMAS LOCAL MUNICIPALITY in favour of ZAKHELE MOKOENA Identity No. 5503135522082, unmarried: in respect of : ERF 4 4 4 2 B O T L E N G EXTENSION 3 Township, Registration Division IR Mpumalanga Province which has been lost or destroyed.

Happy Gwentshu, a Grade 11 learner from Sofunda High School, is a PMBF grant recipient and wants to study to become a scientist. “I received the grant last year and it covers my school fees, books and uniform,” said Happy. “I am so thankful to the PMBF for what they did for me and I wish they can continue helping more learners from disadvantaged backgrounds.”
