THE Nelson Mandela Bay Munici-pality is planning to expropriateland, as amatter of urgency, fromtwoproperty ownerswhose refus-al to sell their propertyhas stalled
the R286 million Njoli Square Redevelop-ment for years.
In amedia statement themunicipality saidit has beendealingwith a longanddrawnoutstalemate to acquire the land since 2008 dur-ing its land acquisition negotiationswith theland owners in the Njoli area.
The municipality said the proposed devel-opment affects 75 private properties and onlytwo of those owners, namely Dr BonganiNqini and Ms Mose, have refused the sale.
Mayoral Spokesperson Kupido Baron saidduring a sitting of the full council last week,recommendations were approved that theCity Manager, Mpilo Mbambisa, establish a
team of officials to facilitate the expropria-tion of erven 3024 and 4353 as a matter of ur-gency to conclude the land acquisition proc-ess that started as far back as 2008.
When approached for comment yesterdayby Express Indaba, both Mose and Nqiniwere not available for comment.
A neighbour of both Mose and Nqina whowanted to remain anonymous said Mosewanted more money than the municipalityhad offered.
“She wanted more because she isn’t theone who wants to move. They want her landso she wants them to pay more than the of-fer.”
In an earlier interview with Express Inda-ba Doctor Nqini, who owns a surgery in themiddle of Njoli Square said he had no inten-tion of leaving. Development has taken placearound his surgery.
Nqini, is a well-respected doctor in the ar-ea, consulting in over 200 cases daily accord-ing to him.
Baronsaid, contrary tohumanrightsabus-es and dispossession during expropriationprior to 1994 by the Apartheid government,“current day expropriation means the pay-ment of market related prices determined byan independent valuer allowing the landowners to benefit appropriately from thetransaction”.
Baron said the team approved by councilwas already intensively involved in theproject that will change the face of Kwaza-khele for the better and act as a catalyst forfurther investment in the area.
Baronsaidwhencompleted theprojectwillinclude:
)Acivic centre, supportedbypublic trans-port and formal and informal commercial fa-cilities will be established in the heart of oneof the oldest suburbs in Port Elizabeth.
Community facilities and municipal func-tions will be accessible in the heart of thetownship. One of the key components of thedevelopment is a state-of-the-art library and
research centre. It will be available for useby students and scholars.
)It creates a major Integrated PublicTransport System (one of the key systems inNelsonMandelaBay)withinamixeduserde-velopment corridor and supports the long-term public transport strategy of the city.
)It will contribute towards the creation ofadignifiedspacewithinapreviouslymargin-alised community.
)During construction of the public facili-ties it is estimated that approximately 2 000jobs will be created;
)Afterconstructionof thepublic facilities,approximately 200 permanent jobs will becreated. In addition to this, the new facilitywill house approximately 200 informal trad-ers, as well as the entire public transport fra-ternity operating to and from Njoli Square;
)The proposed development will also actas an SMME development hub – therefore,through training and mentoring, many jobswill be created outside of this development.

ANGRY parents of Cebelihle High School inKwazakhele, Port Elizabeth locked teachersand the learners out of the school on Thurs-day 26 February demanding an urgent re-sponse from the Department of Education totheir complaints.
According to the parents, their children’seducation was being compromised owing toa shortage of teachers and furniture at theschool.Parents also complained that the school
principal was not there to lead the school.“More than 500 learners struggle to get
proper education because of the shortage ofthree teachers at the school,” said BusisiweMbewu, a parent, adding that the affectedclasses were Grades 12, 11 and 8.Parents also feared that the school’smatric
results, thatwere already down to 55% in 2014from the 70% of the previous year, would beadversely affected.The school, that was built in 2007 after pla-
tooning since 1995, was without adequate fur-niture and learners were taught while stand-ing.“Learners have to kneel down when writ-
ing. How will they succeed in their educationin a situation like that?” asked Mbewu.Parents accuse thedepartment of poorplan-
ning. They argue that whilst the Departmentof education increased the classes, deskswerenot increased to cater for the increased num-bers of learners.For a new school, parents said they wanted
new furniture. They believe that a new schoolshould have new furniture.“Our children are now fighting each other
about furniture. From time to time we arecalled to school to stop children fighting fordesks. Some even carry knives to school,”
said Gladman Mbelekane.The parents said the school’s principal Tho-
bile Ntola, who is the expelled Sadtu presi-dent, was last seen at the school in 2006.“Since he is no longer Sadtu president,
we’ve been told he was supposed to have re-ported at the school in February 2015 but hasnot done so. The school’s deputy principal,Mrs Skosana, is holding the fort, without be-ing paid for it. We want Ntola to resign andSkosana to take the position officially. She is
the one taking care of our children’s inter-ests,” said School Governing Body (SGB)member Nomlindo Ndwanya, adding thatthey had written many letters of complaintto the Department of Education without suc-cess.“We are giving the department seven days
to respond. If there was no satisfactory an-swer by March 5, we’ll close the school, saidthe parents.Provincial Education spokesperson Mali
Mtima said his department was aware of theshortage of furniture in many of the prov-ince’s schools.He said, “ThenationalDepartment ofBasic
Education and the provincial Department ofEducation have a partnership to offset thecurrent backlog in school furniture. It is inphases. We’ll ultimately come to CebelihleHigh and sort out their problem.” said Mti-ma.Mtima said for all the seconded educators
who had to work as shopstewards at provin-cial and national level, an opportunity wascreated for someone to act in their position.“MEC for Education, Honourable Mandla
Makupula has, however, issued an instruc-tion to deal with all the deseconded officialsof the department as part of an agreementsignedwith social partners - to report for dutyin their respective schools in March 2015,”said Mtima.

tor and celebrity Hlubi Mboya, wasthe guest speaker.He said schools needed to start
having evening classes and spendextra time on studying.“We must use time effectively and
not waste it. We must invest in edu-cation for it is the key to our future.Take for instance a country such asJapan. They don’t waste time in thatcountry. They have no minerals, butthey are amongst the top industrialcountries in theworld! That is educa-tion.”He also proposed the establish-
ment of a V M Kwinana Foundation.“I do not want to prescribe to peo-
ple to form a foundation, but if it
were possible, I would give out R10000 towards it.”PrincipalMawongaBlou said: “We
have never heard cases of break- insat this school, or attempts at break-ins. The community is watching thisschool by itself 24 hours a day! Ourschool has 950 learners, and wasbuiltwith abudget ofR43millionandhas 35 classrooms. It was occupied in2012, after we were platooning atMa-jombozi Street in a prefab building.”“We don’t allow hair styles here
and we work hand in hand with par-ents to make sure that our code ofconduct is adhered to. When thereare challenges, we always overcomethem.”

KWANOBUHLEmembers of the SouthAfri-can Police Service (SAPS) in conjunctionwith the Community Police Forum (CPF)had a successful Operation Fundisa at highschools in the township last week.
Aimed at addressing the dangers of drugand liquor abuse, the police and the CPFmembers had already arrived at TinarhaHigh School in Kwanobuhle at 7.45am – on-ly to find a handful of learners on the schoolpremises, said police spokesperson Ser-geant Majola Nkohli.He said they were disappointed as they
wanted to close Operation Fundisa Cam-paign on high note.“The aim of the campaign was two-fold.
It had a theme of discouraging late-comingas well as educating learners about the dan-gers of experimenting with drugs and li-quor,” said Nkohli, adding that drug and li-
quor abuse was still a huge problem facingKwaNobuhle high schools.CPF Treasurer, Siphokazi Tyatya, who is
also a student at Eastcape Midlands Col-lege, gave a motivational talk to learnersand expressed her disappointment overlearners arriving late at school and in theprocess missing out on teaching.Visible Policing Commander, Lieuten-
ant-Colonel Patrick Goeda, delivered aspeech that would be remembered with acatch-line, “Yes, we can!”Lt Col Goeda drove home a message on
the dangers of drugs. He also cited the chal-lenge of liquor abuse, as this was one of thereasons rape victims could not easily giveaccount of the incidents when they wantedto report cases.A Grade 12 learner, Siliziwe Matata, be-
came a star of the campaign when she reca-piculated, and thanked visitors proficient-ly in English, which is her second lan-guage.

IF construction of the new tank farm by Oil-tanking Grindrod Calulo (OTGC) starts thisyear, the first phase should be completed by2018.
Engineering News reports Grindrod CEO,Alan Olivier, as saying the project had beendelayed“Owing to the fact that the tariffmod-
el of the National Energy Regulator of SouthAfrica (Nersa) did not work for projects re-quiring new capital outlay.”He said there were “New tariff regulations
in theworks forMay this year, which shouldallow for the construction of this facility.”The new 230 000 cubic metre facility will
cost R2.9 billion “And will be used for thestorage of all petroleumproductswith the ex-ception of crude oil and liquefied natural
gas.”Olivier said land was available to expand
the facility to 700 000 cubicmetres if required.Construction of the new facility will pave
theway for the eventual decommissioning ofthe existing one in the Port Elizabeth Har-bour.An environmental impact assessment
(EIA) is underway for the decommissioningof the existing facility. The Coega Develop-
ment Corporation has issued a request forproposals for the supply, installation andcommissioning of the technical security in-frastructure in support of the Customs Con-trolled area (CCA) in the IDZ.The CDC has also issued a request for pro-
posals for the roll out of core customs and lo-gistics solutions in support of the CCA thatis “currently in the process of establish-ment.”
First phase of oil tank farm could be completed by 2018

A 14 year-old girl from KwaNobuhle is be-ing kept in a place of safety after she wasallegedly raped by her brother-in-law (40).
The Grade 8 learner is said to be four-months pregnant after her older sister’shusband allegedly raped her on several oc-casions.“According to the girl, the man would do
this when her unemployed elder sister,who suffers from epilepsy and a stress dis-order was asleep,” said a concerned neigh-
bour.According to the neighbour, they saw the
girl’s tummy rising and suspected that shewas pregnant. They, as elderly women, be-came concerned and asked the child aboutit,“She first told a lie about a certain boy
whose name and address she did notknow,” said the neighbour,“She, however, later confessed to us and
in the presence of Phaphani Rape Crisis of-ficials said that it was her brother-in-law(ngubhuti) that did this to her, adding thatshe was told not to tell anyone about it.
According to the girl, he would wake herup in the middle of the night and take herto the kitchen where he would rape her.This happened on more than one occa-
sion. She said she told ubhuti each time,that what he was doing was wrong, but hewould not stop.When neighbours alerted the man’s wife
about her sister’s allegations, she wouldnot listen.The woman instead became angry with
the neighbours and accused them of tryingto cause friction in her marriage.The neighbour said the last straw was
when they heard that the girl was asked byher sister to terminate the pregnancythrough illegal means.“The girl was forced to drink Stameta but
unfortunately it was too late to abort thebaby,” the concerned neighbour said, add-ing that they decided to report the matterto the police.Police spokesperson Sergeant Majola
Nkohli, confirmed that a case of rape in-volving a minor has been opened for inves-tigation.No arrest has, however, been made as
they are still investigating.

June, 1960 in the rural Mandileni Village,Mbixane fell in love with traditional mu-sic at an early age. But it was into farming
and shepperding his father’s livestockthat Saba channeled his energy.Armedwith aNational Diploma inAgri-
culture fromTsolo College, Mbixane audi-tioned to be a presenter for an Agricultur-al Programme at the then Radio Transkeiin 1984 and officially joined that stationin 1985 where he would prove his versatil-ity behind the mic.When Radio Transkei merged with ra-
dio Xhosa, Mbixane joined and shone ina number of diverse programmes that in-cluded the Breakfast Show.The South African Communist Party in

THROUGH the assistance of MasifundeLearner Development, Manelisi Billy (20) andSarah Fina (18), who passed their matric ex-
aminations at the end of last year, will beheading off to Germany next weekMonday toparticipate in the weltwärts reciprocal pro-gramme, which gives youth from developingcountries the opportunity to do volunteerwork in organisations in Germany.
“It’s ahuge success that theyhavebeencho-sen asmost of the other applicants (more than50) are older and much more experienced,”said Laura Klapper, sponsorship administra-tor, at Masifunde Learner Development.
Billy will work in Bonn at Lebenshilfe e.V.,ahome fordisabledpeopleandstay inhisownapartment on the premises. He will supportthem with their day-to-day activities such asgrocery shopping, cooking and general assist-ance. Billy volunteered at the Cheshire Homein Summerstrand last year, in order to pre-pare himself for his duties at Lebenshilfe. Hewill also be taking his supporters through hislife changing journey on his blog, “Life inBonn- Restoring the quality of living”, onwww.betterplace.org.
Fina will live in Oldenburg andwork at Ju-gendkulturarbeit Oldenburg e.V., a youth de-velopment organisation and share a flat withother volunteers from countries across Eu-rope. Jugendkulturarbeit runs Drama andMusic programmes in schools,which comple-mentsFina’s love for the performing arts. Shetook Drama and Music as school subjects at
Victoria Park High and was a prominentmember of Masifunde’s Drama and YouthChoir Group. Fina will be assisting with theorganising and running of the programmes,while improving her script writing and pro-duction skills
When askedhow she felt about being select-ed, Fina answered, “I’m so amazed becauseI never thought I’d stand a chance, eventhough I know I have so much to offer. I amso excited and a bit nervous because I will begoing into a newworld.All Iwant to do is helpout and challenge myself so I will learn moreand grow into a better person. I believe I amready for all that will be thrown at me. Itwon’t be easy but I’m ready.”
Billy believes this opportunity is one of thegreatest platforms he has ever been given, “Ifeel blessed and excited yet nervous becausethere’s a lot of responsibility.

THOUGH she chose maths and science as herhigh school subjects, Transkei-born BaneleNdarala soon knew that was not the field forher, and she was destined instead to become“something big in business one day”.
Ndarala, 22, completed her diploma in Hu-manResourceManagement atNelsonMandelaMetropolitan University (NMMU) last year,and was mentally preparing herself to join thejobmarket,whena long-termdreamcame true.She received a R15 000 Businesswomen’s Asso-ciation (BWA) bursary, which has enabled herto register for an additional year of study,which will effectively convert her diploma toa BTech degree.“If it hadn’t been for the BWA bursary, I
wouldn’t have been able to register this year,”she said.“It was so important for me to get a degree
qualification. It willmean that I amnot limited
to entry-level positions when I enter the jobmarket… This bursary means I am able to ad-vancemy qualification – to take a step forward– allowingme to be closer towhat Iwant to be.”Though she is not the first in her family to
pursue tertiary studies, she will be the first toattain a degree.Looking to the future, she hopes to pursue
further postgraduate courses in Business Ad-ministration. “I definitely seemyself in the cor-porate world – that’s where I’ll be able to flour-ish.”Ndarala said her “secret to success” was in-
spired by a speech NMMU Vice-ChancellorProf. Derrick Swartz had given, when she wasin firstyear. “Hesaid inorder tomakeit inyourstudies, you have to align yourself with smartpeople. If Ialignmyselfwith likemindedpeople,who have the same drive to do what I’m doing,it motivates me and this becomes my drivingforce.”She said another significant factor in her
journey to success had been her awareness of
the sacrifices others had made for her, notleast her mother Nondumiso Ndarala, a Mag-istrate’s Court clerk, who had contributed to-wards her financial needs. “So many peoplehave been involved in my success.”And now BWA is one of them. Michelle
Brown, who chairs BWA’s Port Elizabethbranch, said, “We are very proud of our latestbursary recipient, Banele. Not only did sheobtain a number of distinctions in her under-graduate studies, but she also fulfilled vari-ous leadership roles.“As Prof Swartz said: ‘Align with like-
minded people’ – and we trust that Banelefeels thiswayaboutBWA!She is determinedto succeed – and we are looking forward towatching her grow into a great South Afri-can businesswoman,” she said.The Businesswomen’s Association
(BWA) awards bursaries to deserving post-graduate students pursuing business-relat-ed studies, across South Africa. For moreinformation, go to: www.bwasa.co.za/burseries.

MOTHERWELL Community CyclingClub struck gold when Cycling SouthAfricaandSiyanqobaSportsDevelop-ment Club handed 10 bicycles withhelmets over to them during a glitter-ing function in Motherwell NU 30Community Hall last Thursday.
Speaking during the handover, Cy-cling SA President William Newmansaid the reason theymade such a gen-erous donation to Motherwell Com-munityCyclingClubwasthat theclubmembers were so enthusiastic aboutcycling but had no means to procurebicycles.“I am extremely delighted to note
that cycling is regarded as one of themost popular sporting codes,” saidNewman.“We decided to come to the rescue
of Motherwell Community CyclingClub because this is a club of the peo-ple with no financial means. And thecyclists of this club take cycling seri-ously. I want to commend the NelsonMandela Bay Department of Sport,Recreation,ArtsandCulture for theirefforts in supporting this club.”
Siyanqoba Sports DevelopmentClubPresidentYsterXatasi said thatcycling keeps people fit and healthy.Xatasi said, “Since this club com-
prisesmainly learners, we knew thatit was going to be impossible for all ofthem to buy a bicycle. We thereforedecidedto joinhandswithCyclingSAto lend a helping hand to theMother-well Community Cycling Club.”Motherwell Community Cycling

FORMER Nelson Mandela Bay pro-fessional boxers are working hardto revive boxing in the metro.
This became evident when SiphoNogampula’s Team Nompumeleloof KwaNobuhle held a boxing tour-nament at the Kuyga CommunityHall featuring interesting boutsfrom male and female boxers - someweighing as little as 19 kg.
“The area of Kuyga is used to box-ing. We brought the sport here be-cause the idea was to take boxingto all parts of the metro municipali-ty,” said Nogampula, thanking Mu-nicipal Ward 40 Councillor Thoza-mile Qushani for supporting thetournament.
The tournament was held underthe auspices of the Nelson MandelaAmateur Boxing Organisation(NMBABO) which is under ECA-BO, the structure that governs openboxing in the province.
Referees and judges are qualifiedNMBABO Officials. “We want tosharpen the skills of our boxers sothat they do well in national and in-ternational competitions,” said No-gampula.
A number of former professionalboxers like Mzukisi Oliphant,
Thembinkosi Blou, China Koyana,Mlungisi Takane, Khuselikile Gadaand Mzikayise Matlala, to mentionbut a few, were in support with theirboxers.
They too have taken courses as of-ficials of this Olympic sport.
“I am so happy this boxing tour-nament was held here. This areaused to have boxing but it died downin the past. Being a former boxermyself I know what the sport can doin keeping the youth away from do-ing wrong things,” said Cllr Qus-
hani.He said his plans included mak-
ing sure that there was a boxingclub in the Kuyga/Greenbushes ar-ea.
“People of this community loveboxing. They proved it with their at-tendance. We know that not all ourchildren will be playing soccer.Maybe there are boxing championsin the waiting in this our Ward,”said Qushani.
He thanked the former boxers forlaying a solid foundation in Kuyga.
