“A mysterious fire burned down my surgery”, said a Ugandan herbalist in a griev-ing voice who resides at Mocke and Venda Street. “I was not far away, I went to the nearest shopping mall and after a few minutes I got a call from one of the ten-ants saying my shack was on fire”, said the sad herbal-ist. It’s only when he saw the fire fighters that he started to believe that his house was re-ally on fire. Everything was burned down into ashes even his passport and the Ekurhu-leni metro police officer said “we don’t know the cause of the fire yet but the police will conduct further investiga-tions”, concluded the officer.

This programme was in-troduce by Pat Magidikele the mission was to develop young and adult on visual art classes.

Older people of Etwatwa Section are doing it for them-selves, gone are those days whereby our grandparents would sit at home and wait for their passing time on earth. Since October the 20th last year, the veterans of our glorious movement ANC (African National Congress) formulated a discussion meeting every Tuesday for older people who were part of the struggle. Their mem-bers come in wheelchairs and walking sticks but they are still able to strive and go to the Harry Gwala Secondary School in Emaphupeni for the meeting. These old comrades are combined together in dis-cussion of their challenges as
older people, and they try to assist one another where they can. The league has solved problems like providing iden-tity documents and birth cer-tificates for those who don’t have. They collect old clothes and donate them to poor families among them. The veteran’s league address is-sues like grant money, safety tips on how older should pro-tect themselves especially to those who are staying alone because it’s not safe. The ANC veteran’s league is led by George Hlophe, 62, who is the Chairperson of the league, Samuel Dhlamini who is the member of the secretary com-mittee. Goodman November who is the member of the committee said “I am proud tobe part of the veteran’s league because each one of us plays a key role as the reservoir of knowledge, because I was also in the struggle so there’s a lot to share”. The league has even gone to parliament to talk to the premier of Gau-teng Nomvula Mokonyane addressing their needs that they need a cultural village and old age home in Etwatwa. Their aims is to see every old person of the Etwatwa sec-tion making something out of their lives, regardless of the age they should stop feeling neglected and lonely. Projects like these are there to cater for their needs and give at-tention and love older people.
Solo perfomance by Freddie Zwane at a
dance festival called
breaking new grounds
Freddie created a solo dance piece called Unnatural Pres-ence which talked about his life. The piece was choreo-graphed in Europe Denmark (Copenhagen) which was a break through him. The piece was well received by Europe-ans who saw Zwane’s work as hardcore South African culture and a primal, sculp-tured rite of primal passage by Contemporary African in search of his physical and spiritual identity. Zwane has been invited by the Grahams town National Arts Festival

LETTERS AND SUGGESTIONS
I was born in the darkest ignorance
And my spiritual master
Open my eyes and obeisance unto him.
Heavenly Father beloved one everlasting.
At present everyone is suf-fering but to ignorance
Just as one contracts disease out of ignorance
If one does not know hy-giene principles
He will not know what will contaminate him
Due to ignorance, the is infection
And we suffer more disease.
A criminal may say “I don’t know the law”
But he will not be excused if commits a crime
And let the other one bite the dust
This is due to ignorance process
The stone builders reject as worthless
If was the head corner of the whole house
So ignorance does not work
The absolute truth ultimately
The supreme personality but due to ignorance
This is not known still igno-rance is no excuse

Ignorance is no excuse
Dear Editor
I write this letter to Vutha news because I have this great concern about old building shops at Daveyton square. I am so concerned in a way that I don’t even buy fatkoek (amang-winya) there because it’s not hygienic, those buildings are no longer in a good standard of selling food they need to be renovated. I just wonder if health inspectors go and check those shops. There are also shops there that are having problems with their sewage system, most of the time it is blocked and runs out into the street and into residential areas. Chinese and Bangladesh business men are taking over and they are not keeping those buildings in good condition. My question is who is in charge now? Because most of the owner’s passed away and to tell you the truth, Daveyton square shops are not in good condition and they should be renovated.

My Name is kefiloe Mokoena and I stay in a location called Kingsway which is not far from Daveyton. Since I have started reading your newspaper I have really started to enjoy reading about what is happening in our communities. It is very sad that Vutha News only caters for Daveyton and Etwatwa where as there are a lot of stories and problems in my location and surrounding places as well. It would be really nice if you could also right about the things that happen in other places, in that way you will have more supporters and people will buy your newspaper.
Dear Editor
My name is Sbongile Gumede from Emaphupheni Et-watwa, I am a single parent who regularly attends funer-als around here. It’s a disgrace when we see what young women are wear during these funerals. It’s painful and embarrassing to see young women with miniskirts, most of the time these young people are going around the cemetery chatting on cell phones, laughing and not even paying attention. I feel that it is just bringing more pain to the family in mourning because they disrespecting the adults and are more concerned about other things. My plea goes to the parents, to talk to their kids about tradi-tion and respect especially concerning funerals because that’s where the problem begin.

The centres daily activity is to help young people discover his/her talent that he/she may be able to pursue. The centre chose young people because they see them as a vehicle for any development because they are still active and have big dreams that needs to be fulfilled. Sicelo says the chal-lenges that they have faced as a centre is crime because there has been more than 2 break-ins so they have implemented tight security. The achieve-ment that they achieved so far is that the club house have managed to send young peo-ple to United States of Ameri-ca for team summit, were they groom these individuals in becoming champions of their own lives. Nico Sibanyoni is a volunteer at the Tshep-oThembamulti purpose cen-tre he said “I am proud of be-ing part of this centre because at least I am doing something effective that will change someone’s else’s life.” Young people are motivated to come to this youth develop-ment programme so they will take part in something that will change their lives;so all they need to do is to change their attitude towards life.
It has been said that “one hand washes the other” which means if you help someone else the favour will be returned to you. The Tshepo Themba multi purpose resource cen-tre has demonstrated that in the lives of young people who are living in Etwatwa section. The Tshepo Themba multi purpose resource cen-tre was established by Rev. Dan Thabethe in 1997, back then it was called Tshepo Themba Institute. The aim was to group young people to do after school programmes like homework’s covering subjects like maths and Eng-lish. The centre grew to be-come a club house for young people involving activities like drama and career guides education information. An organisation called SAAYC (Southern African associa-tion of youth clubs) discov-ered that their aim and objec-tions were in line with what Tshepo Themba was doing. The centre implemented new programmes like computer

Illegal dumping, who is responsible?
By: Xoliswa Mbata
Daveyton and Etwatwa resi-dents are facing the biggest challenge of illegal dump-ing; today we have dead rats on our tar roads because of people who dump illegally on different sites. New born babies and rapes victims are discovered in such place. Keeping our country clean was our biggest dream to see change and enjoy a govern-ment has done so much for
this country; we have street lights and refuse removal programmes from Ekurhu-leni Metropolitan Munici-pality that we keep in our household. Illegal dumping is a human health threat; it is unhealthy for us and the envi-ronment. A variety of health hazards are associated with illegal dumping including: cancer, encephalitis, hepati-tis, diseases carried by birds, mosquitoes, and rodents. Our government utilized such
open fields at some point but the community members misuse the property and turn the place into a dumping site. Now the question is who is responsible for illegal dump-ing? Vutha news spoke with Daveyton and Etwatwa resi-dents. Tiyani Mathebula: “we are responsible; it is my duty and right as a South African Citizen to report such pro-tractors because it’s a serious issue and a small proportion that can be fixed with money,
if only the government can maintain those sites by build-ing parks or sports field. To-day we have rats all over the streets and we can’t control them anymore. We have to organise campaigns’ to clean our community, we are all re-sponsible for illegal dumping. If you don’t dump but you keep quite when you see your neighbour dumping illegally, you are also responsible for all the Rats we have in our township”. Kwanele Kwan-da: “most of the perpetrators are not from this area, people come from Mashanganeni to Maxhoseni section so in that way it’s not easy to recall such people. The Ekurhu-leni Municipality has made a change here in ward 25, we have our mini park, but we are still facing the biggest challenge of illegal dumping in our community. Yende Street is one of the most well known dumping sites. Last month a student was robbed after school and business owners are not safe because of this open field at Yende, putting a fence right round will be a solution because we have a park, what more do we need”. Mzwamandla Solani: “we can fight these perpetra-tors by bringing back those old big bins. Everybody is affected whether we like it or not. Rats are everywhere be-cause of this issue they must be convicted of this if it’s a crime”. Polash: A Business owner near the dumping site at Maxhoseni section “ it’s not good for my business to be on this unhealthy environ ment, rodents and bugs are-invading my space because
of ignorant citizen”. Mavis Madlophe: “At Etwatwa we seriously affected because we don’t even know where to re-port these perpetrators. Gov-ernment is responsible, yes I can report but I don’t know the by-laws of illegal dump-ing. Cynthia Delisile Zwane: “it’s my responsibility to re-port illegal dumpers because dumping rubbish everywhere, it’s not good for our health here at Barcelona. Children use those sites for sports ac-tivities but we can’t allow them to go and play on those sites anymore because it’s not hygienic. In other countries dumping illegally is an of-fence under the litter act, last month the municipal tight-ened the law on legal dump-ing on their launch. Justice Mohale Ekurhuleni spokes-person said illegal dump-ers will be fined amounts of R2000; public members are requested to take part by reporting illegal dumpers.
ously dumping refuse illegal despite the scheduled door to door services rendered. Pub-lic members are requested to report to the office of the Acting Solid Waste Manger on (011)999-8425 and (011) 999-8458 during office hours or the municipal call centre on 0860 543 000, the follow-ing information must be pro-vided in order of the EMM to initiate action against the perpetrators Exact address, time and date of the incident, registration number of the vehicle if applicable, an accu-rate description of the type of waste that was disposed, name and address and telephone numbers of the complainant and a photo of the perpe-trator dumping if possible.
Official comment from Justice Mohlala, EMM spokesperson the Ekurhuleni Metropolitan Municipality says they are in a process of developing a master plan for the establish-ment of public offload areas equitably throughout EMM. Education and awareness is constantly given to the com-munity and the assistance of local media, the contrac-tors that render the service in these areas are monitored closely and illegal dumped refuse in these areasare re-moved on a seven working day cycle.
