Two wards uncontested08 December, when By-elections intwo vacant wards in Burgersfort weresupposed to be held, went by virtuallyunnoticed election wise as only theANC has nominated candidates.Their candidates were declaredcouncillirs as their nominiations wereuncontested by other political parties.(See the results of the election in theIEC graph). As far as PlatinumGazette could determine, it was notthat other parties did not have anycandidates available. A COPEmember told the newspaper “it is notworth it at this late stage to try andfight an election in a ward. It isunneccessary waste of time, moneyand energy. We will rather wait for nextyear’s local government elections”.

Anglo Platinum Limited held its Bokamoso Skills Development Graduation Ceremony at theSekhukhune FET College’s Dr CN Phatudi Campus in Praktiseer last week Friday.

Over 500 youths attended a portable skills development programme, providing themtraining opportunities in areas such as plumbing, bricklaying, tiling, welding and catering.Over 3000 learners in communities around platinum communities participated.

In partnership with both provincial and local government, the company offered trainingprogrammes that enable participants to create their own employment opportunities inaddition to participating in the national infrastructure development programme.

The skills development model that was used is integrated and covers technical training,workplace/ experiential training, entrepreneurship training and exit opportunities.

Also on Friday the company handed over Community Trust Funds to the traditionalleaders of various communities around Twickenham Platinum Mine.

Delivering the keynote address at the function, Greater Tubatse Municipality Mayor,Ralepane Mamekoa, told the audience that partnerships between the mines and businessesare the key to economic development and job creation in the area. He said more than 27companies are active in mining in the Greater Tubatse municipal area. If only onecompany, in this case, Anglo Platinum, can achieve so much in such a short time,development and education in the area can be hugely accelerated if all the companies dotheir part.

Because of the sheer scope of the project, certificates where handed to students inbatches, and photographers struggled to get the large groups into the lens for groupphotographs.

Cheques (ranging in the region of R1 million) were handed individually to traditionalauthorities before it was time for lunch and entertainment for all.

‘Nationalisation ofmines, betterservices’ - ANCYL

The ANC Youth League (ANCYL) held itsthird subregional conference in Tubatse inBurgersfort last week Saturday.

During the conference seaveralresolutions were taken. On miningdelegates said that Tubatse is rich inminerals and yet its people are poor,conditions of the roads and other facilitiesare deteriorating because of the influx ofpeople attracted by mining activities.

They supported the call by the ANCYLnational leadership that mines must benationalised, saying “ If mine bosses resistour programme of nationalisation, they mustpack and go to the West. Mines must bebiased towards employing the majority oflocal young people who are piling up thestreets without any hope of decent life”.

On governance they agreed that servicedelivery is poor and lashed out against,corruption and the inability of themunicipality to employ local young people toaccelerate service delivery.

“Tubatse is amassed with skilled youngpeople who are been compromised by theso-called girlfriend deployment’ of relativesand friends with no competencies. Wetherefore resolved that ‘a new broomsweeps clean’. The next council must becomposed in a way that young people willplay a major role in governance” they stated

in a news release after the conference,adding “ laziness, corruption, poorperformance by current councillors will notbe tolerated as it compromises delivery ofservices”.

Delegates warned young people againstthe dangers of the Aids pandemic, saying“young people themselves must promote anin-depth awareness of HIV/Aids in theirrespective communities. The one condom,one round motto must precede any conjugalrelationship amongst young people.Substance abuse must be minimised”.

The conference expressed its concernabout the low standard of education incommunities and the early drop-outsamongst young people. The conferencecalled on all spheres of government to takepart in uplifting the standard of educationincluding local mines by awarding areasonable number of bursaries,learnerships and experience training,expressing the view that “mines in the areahave a responsibility to plough back skillsappropriate to their operations”.

During the conference MankgaseMashabela was elected Chairperson,Pelaelo Matemane, Deputy Cahiarperson,Emmanuel Makgoga, Secretary, MmaseloMotshwane, Deputy Secretary and HalindaMojalefa, Treasurer.

“As the Executive Mayor of Sekhukhune District Municipality, Cllr Mogobo David Magabe, Iwould like to take this opportunity to send my festive greetings to everybody in the District.

The year 2010 has been a year full of milestones that we all shall cherish in our life time.We started it with Mayoral consultative meetings geared towards of 2010 / 2011 IDP Budget.

It is through that campaign that as elected officials of the ANC-led government, fresh mandatewas received from you the people.

We also met with stakeholders like traditional leaders and NGOs to deliberate on issues ofservice delivery.

We highly appreciate your contributions towards our 2010 / 2011 IDP-Budget.As we entered this festive season, let us remind ourselves that respect and discipline are

the core values of UBUNTU in our culture.You indeed made us proud when you graced the occasion of the biggest soccer show

piece THE 2010 FIFA World Cup. You braved all sorts of weathers and gathered in yourthousands at both Ntwampe and Monsterlus Sports Grounds. We thank you for that.

During this time of the year, we dare not falter. HIV/AIDS continue to be a thorn in ourlifetime. And us as 1,2million people of Sekhukhune District, we join the world as we advocateSafe Sex and support to victims of HIV/AIDS.

We notice with sadness the ongoing loss of lives on our roads. And our message is thatone life is one too many. Let us respect one another and obey the laws of the road.

As Sekhukhune District Municipality, we are aware that many of our people still work longdistances from home. We welcome them to motherland as they arrive for the festive season.

We are humbled by the fact that our crime statistics are very low. Therefore we call uponeveryone to behave very well so that we may achieve zero crime rates.

In case of any eventuality, please contact the nearest SAPS and avoid taking the law intoyour own hands.

To parents and guardians, we urge you to use money sparingly, the new academic year ishere. And in the spirit of our internationally acclaimed campaign of ONE GOAL, that is educationfor all children, let us save money.

To all learners in awaiting Grade 12 results, we wish you success. We depend on you forthe much needed engineers and doctors in the District.

As the ANC-led government, we are on course with the targets for Millennium DevelopmentGoals. Weather be it on water or sanitation, we are on course.

Together we will dismantle all challenges ahead of us. That is why for the New Year, westill say to you “Working Together We can Do More”.

On behalf of the District Municipality, I wish you a Merry Christmas and Prosperous NewYear.

Do not Drink and Drive and Arrive Alive”.His Worship,the Executive Mayor of Sekhukhune District Municipality, Cllr MogoboDavid Magabe.
