thewhistle on his partymembers,alleging they went on property-buying sprees using council mon-ey, faced suspension from hiscouncil last Friday

According to sourceswithin the municipality,this matter has its genesisin a power struggle betweentwo factions of theANC in theHarry Gwala District, one ledby Ngcobo, deputy chairper-son of the ANC regionalexecutivecommit-tee

alleging widespread corruptionby his colleagues.

However, this letterwas leakedtotheMail&Guardian.AtthetimeNgcobo declined to comment tothe newspaper andwas quoted assaying:“HewouldnotdiscussANCmatters with the press.”

But suspicion lingered aboutNgcobo’s alleged involvement inthe letter reaching the media.

Anoticeofmotionwastabledbefore theHarryGwalaDistrictcouncil questioning how an in-ternalpartyletterhadendedupin the newspaper.

The motion called for Ng-cobo’s suspension. However,the council, at its meeting onFriday decided that the letterwas an internal party matterandthereforeshouldnotbedis-cussed inacouncil sitting.Ade-cision was taken to refer the

matter to the Municipal PublicAccounts Committee for investi-gation. When contacted, Ngcobo

declined to comment.Harry Gwala District Munici-

pality ANC Chief Whip SiyandaMavumaconfirmed that the coun-cil took a resolution to investigatehow the letter was leaked to theMail&Guardian.TheMPACisex-pected to table a preliminary re-port in June.

“Thenthecouncilwilldecideonwhat action will taken againstNgcobo,” said Mavuma

DA KZN deputy chairpersonFrancois Rodgers said his partyhas taken an interest in Ngcobo’sallegationsandwouldbereferringtheallegations for investigationbythePublicProtector,ThuliMadon-sela.

Rodgerssaidthat therewere is-sues of poor service delivery in themunicipality.

He added that this raised ques-tions on how much of that poorservicedeliverycouldbeasaresultof maladminstration and corrup-tion.

EFF hands over list of demandsNTUNTU DWEBA>>[email protected]

THE Umzimkhulu Local Municipality mayor,Mphuthumi Mpabanga has described the EconomicFreedom Fighter as “ill-informed opportunists”.

This comes after party members marched to themunicipality offices with a memorandum of demandslast Friday.

Mphabangasaidtheissuesraisedinthememoran-dum are things the municipality is already dealingwith. Some of the demands include the immediateconstruction ofroadsin therural areasofUmzimkhu-lu.

It states that the roads of Bovini and Mncweba,villages in Umzimkhulu, are not accessible even for anambulance or the police.

The memorandum further states that the EFF de-mands water and sanitation for poor Umzimkhulucommunities.

“Members of EFF are looking for anything that willdraw attention to them. For instance we, as the mu-nicipallity, were in Bovini two weeks ago to addressthe issue of electricity, and things are going accordingto plan,” Mphabanga said.

EFF Harry Gwala region convenor Linda Mbhelesaid the 20 years of democracy that the governmentis talking about are actually 20 years of horror forpeople.

“Many rural areas in Umzimkhulu are still withoutbasic services and that is why we went to the munici-pality to demand answers on the issues we raised.”

Another demand by the EFF is they want a bridgeat Goso, another village in Umzimkhulu.

“Children have to cross at a river when they go toschool and when it rains it gets worse, people evendrown,” Mbhele said.

Mpabanga said the Department of Transport is inthe final stage of getting a contractor to build a bridgethere.

“The department is to hire a contractor to build abridge, so these demands are not genuine.

“If they had real issues to talk about communitymembers would have joined them. Instead they arejust a small group of people saying nothing meaning-ful,” said the mayor.

He said EFF members did not formally inform themunicipality they were going to have a march.

“They did not discuss anything with us. We don’tencourage their way of doing things,” he said.

The EFF said it has given the municipality onemonth to respond to its demands. The party said fail-ure of the municipality to comply will result in theparty taking the matter to higher authorities, even tothe Public Protector.

Robbers get awaywith a fortune


THE Matatiele SAPS are searchingfor five men who robbed a Mata-tiele supermarket of a largeamount of cash on Monday.

The Matatiele police spokes-person, Lieutenant Raphael Mot-loung said five men went to Son-dela Supermarket at about7.15am. He said that although thesupermarket only opens at 8am,the managers are there by 7am be-cause many schools around Mata-tiele buy groceries for their feedingscheme from the supermarket.

“The four managers, who werealready in the shop, opened up forthe men, assuming they wereteachers as there was already a

teacher inside waiting for a groceryorder for his school,” Motloung ex-plained.

When inside the shop, the mendrew firearms, ordering the man-agers to direct them to the strongroom where the safe is.

They, including the teacher,were forced into the strong room.While demanding that the man-agers open the safe, one of themtook a cellphone from an employ-ee so he couldn’t call for help.

“It is as if they knew everythingabout the shop because at thattime there aren’t many employeesinside because the shop onlyopens at 8am,” Motloung said.

It also appears that the robbersknew that the elderly get their old-age grants at the supermarket at

the beginning of the month.When the safe was finally

opened the robbers took an undis-closed amount of money and putit into a big bag. It is estimated thisto be more than R500 000 as itwas grant-recipient pay day.

The robbers then locked themanagers and the teacher insidethe strong room and left the keyson the counter. They fled with alltheir cellphones.

“One of the manager’s cell-phone had atrackeronitanditwasfound near Area C, but there wasno sign of the robbers,” Motloungsaid.

No arrests have been made.Motloungurgedanyonewithinfor-mation to contact the Matatielepolice station on 039 737 9900.
