THE Mt Ayilff police are hunting down aman (21) who is believed to have connedabout 85 people in two villages by promisingthem jobs if they paid him R500 for medicaltests.

According to police spokesperson, Cap-tain Mlungisi Matidane, this man hadconned the people of Gillespy and Tella loca-tions in Mt Ayliff out of approximatelyR65 000.

Reports claim the man met with a localemerging businessman in Kokstad andasked him to subcontract with him, becausehe had a company that was manufacturing

building material in Pretoria and wouldneed skilled people from the Transkei towork in his company.

Local businessman Mncedisi Jajukaagreed and he sent his documentation to theman.

This was followed by a phone call whichconfirmed their agreement of work.

It is alleged that the sameman fromPreto-ria told Jajuka to hire about 85 people whowould have been sent to Pretoria for train-ing. The man allegedly asked Jajuka tomake sure that each person recruited paidR500 for medical tests when they got to Pre-toria.

People who were recruited paid the mon-ey as requested and the man from Pretoria

came down to collect the rest of the moneyfromthosewhohadnot paid.But before theycontinued with the collection of the out-standingmonies, Jakuja suggested that theygo to the police station to have an affidavittaken about their deal.

Following some questions concerning thecollection of the cash, the man was interro-gated by the police.

Captain Matidane said the man allegedlywent to fetch his identity document fromhiscar, but he never returned to the station.

“We have deployed police all over thecountry to look for this man. We are tryingto prevent more people falling victim to hisscam. We also discovered an ID in his bagwhich he left behind and an ID of a deceased

person with a fraudulant picture.”Healso confirmed that thepolice inMtAy-

liff were investigating a case of fraud andtheft.

He said they were expecting more victimsof this scam to come forward. The man whohad established a relationship with the conartist, and who had recruited people, wentback to the communities to apologize in thecompany of the police.

He told residents that he was not awareof the man’s alleged fraudulent intent. Hethought the man was there to help the job-less people of the area.

Attempts to get hold of Mncedisi Jakujawere fruitless as his phone was on voice-mail.

THE founder of the Mnquma Gospel Awards (MGA),Sine Mkhetshane, from Butterworth has promised sup-porters of this event that this would now be an annualevent.

TheMnqumaGospelAwardswhichwas held recently,had catered for people from areas in the Mnquma LocalMunicipal area, including Butterworth, Centane andNgqamakhwe.

Speaking toExpress,Mkhetshane said he realized thatlocal artists were not recognized most of the time.

“I had a vision to do these awards. I shared my visionwith my wife who gave me huge support. I then ap-proached one of the business owners in Butterworth todiscuss my vision with himwith the aim of fulfilling it,”said Mkhetshane.

He said they had then decided to host the awards atthe beginning of this year. His aimwas to uplift the stan-dard of the gospel artists around Mnquma and to makethem feel more connected with the community.

“We have started with artists from the Mnquma area,but as time goes by we are willing to expand to otherareas. We have aalready started preparing for nextyear’s awards ceremony.”

Mkhetshane said he was hoping that this initiativewould change the lives of artists and give themmore ex-posure, since they were producing CD’s that heal andgive hope to those who have broken hearts.

THE funeral service of the late traditionalmusic DJ Saba Mbixane at Mandileni ruralvillage outside Mount Frere town on Sundaywas attended by dignitaries from nationaland provincial parliaments who came to bidfarewell to the DJ, farmer and communitybuilder.

Among the thousands of mourners who at-

Although Mbixane was not awarded aprovincial state funeral by the office of theState President, as was requested by the East-

ern Cape Province, the premier of the EasternCape made sure that Saba Mbixane receiveda dignified funeral. Eight memorial serviceswere held for him across the country.

Mbixane died after a motorbike accident inhis home village last month. After the acci-dent he was taken to the local hospital, Madzi-kane KaZulu, from where he was later airlift-ed to the Nelson Mandela Academic Hospitalin Mthatha. He died on February 26 after be-ing in a coma for several weeks.

Mbixane had been working for UmhloboWenene FM. He started his time at the stationby hosting a very popular breakfast show.

He went on to host a traditional music showin 1997 and the number of listeners to thisshow increased tremendously.

It was as if Mbixane knew that he was goingto die anytime soon as in his last advert hewas asking people to close their eyes andthink about what would happen if they die.In his message in that advert, in Xhosa, was“whatever happens to me please take care ofmy children”.

All the speakers at the funeral describedMbixane as a people’s person who dislikedpeople who lie and gossip,

Hayi, amadoda

Bafethu sometimes uke uzibone sowuzibu-za imibuzo ongenakwazi nawe ukuyiphendu-la. Ewe! Kuyakwayintoni majita.Uyazi kukhona usisi phaya eUTA ebesazi-

kungatshongo khona kuhambisana nengulosometimes.Nombala sithe siyabona ungumnqawuka

bela kude emana ukuthi “hayi ndandiyayazila way”, Ok, wanqaba futhi nalapha empuz-weni simbona nje xa edriver around town elilolo.Wawu!! Last weekend simbonile kucaca

ukuba noko welaphekile uyabuyela nasegaz-ini. Nanko amadoda semthe mba kwakhona,nala kanye ebehambela kude ngoku sefunakuyeesiqwini akazinokuba isigulobesiyinto-ni kuba naku utyebile kwakhona angenakuye.Nizofa nje ngokuba kucaca ukuba anizicin-

na la mambawu abo.

Sorry guys, this is life in EC

In order to experience life of that particularprovince sometimes you need to get hurt sothat you will be able to see a direction.Bafethu, asihlekisi ngani qha this is a fact.

Therewere guys fromGautengwhowere sob-bing of being ‘knocked’ by the girls duringtheir visit to the Eastern Cape.The guys told us that they invited the girls

whom they met in So What Lounge, UTA.

They organized everything for them frombuying alcohol on their first meeting going toa braai for themand buying airtime, let alonetransporting them from point A to point B theentire weekend.But the ladies still stole their two cell

phones and some cash. The guys realised thislater after they dropped them off in front ofa room in Fortdale where they claimed theywere staying. But when they went there tocheck, therewere no ladies and theywere justwelcomed by an old lady who said she knewnothing about the ladies and that it was justherself and her husband living in the room.Kuyabethwa eEC bafana bam akudlalwa

and oosisi bethu nabo bayaziphandela.

But it’s dangerous

We are used to seeing drivers driving whiletalking on a cell phone, but what we saw lastweek was a “masterpiece’’ but also too dan-gerous for words.There was a guy who was driving a grey

BMW in Sutherland Street.

While the guy was driving, he was alsoreading a newspaperwhich hewas put acrossthe steeringwheel. HOW!!madoda yimihlola.Sometimes we challenge the accident on ourown because you cannot read and drive.Lo nto nje ngamanzi namafutha.Ntante Machaea sinqandeleni baba kule

reckless driving yenzeka apha eUTA.

What happened shame?

I wonder what happened to the guard whowas found emapuna-puna inside the premisesof a local business.Sondela sikuxelele iindaba ezi ungazaziyo.Kaloku last week kufunyenwe enye i-outie

egada eKopano itiphile and ishaya ngesuti ye-sele ukuba kwenzeke ntoni akukabikhomntuwaziyo kuba ibingakwazi nokuthetha.Mhlawumbi umfethu uzitshize ngamadla

kuba kulityelwe icala le bar lingatshinxwan-ga or kukhona into emehleleyo mara sizaku-thola konke lokho xa sele ekwazi ukuthetha.Mahlawumbe idonkey idle emthwalweni ebo-na isitha se-bar sivuliwe.

IT was a weekend filled with plenty of socceractionwhen SABRegional League clubs fromDutywa, FC Nantez and Candu FC lockedhorns in Gumbela Stadium, while ABC Mot-sepe League’s Mthatha Bucks played againstZimbane Killers FC at Mthatha Stadium lastSaturday.

Soccer fans from Dutywa were pleased tosee their clubs, FC Nantez and Candu FC, dis-playing football of a high standard with mag-nificent dribbling skills.

While FC Nantez was playing defensive

football and capitalizing on the advantage ofthe wind which gave them opportunities toplay counter attacks, Candu FC was equal tothe task and on the attack in the first half de-spite having to play against the wind.They wanted an early goal and during the

first ten minutes of the first half a Candu FCmidfielder came with a powerful long rangeshot which gave their team a goal.The first half ended with Candu FC leading

1-0. In the second half FC Nantez was all overthe Candu FC defenders as they were lookingfor an equalising goal but Candu FC’s goal-keepermade excellent saves denying FCNan-tez an equaliser.

The rain came down 25 minutes before theend of game and Candu FC decided to changetheir game plan with the hope of defendingtheir only goal of the game.Unfortunately for them FC Nantez also had

a change of plan andwasdetermined to eitherwin the game or share the point.FC Nantez’ strikers confused the Candu FC

defenders as they were attacking from all di-rections with their one two touches.In the last ten minutes of the game FC Nan-

tez created a clear chance when their strikerfound himself in a one-on-one with the goal-keeper.He beat the goalkeeper to end the gameinaone-all drawandthe teamssharingapoint.

In theABCMotsepe derby, ZimbaneKillersFC beat high-flying Mthatha Bucks FC witha score of 1-0.Mthatha Bucks FC is leading the ABCMot-

sepe log standing. Before losing against Zim-bane Killers, who are in the middle of the log,last Saturday. they had played 14 games, win-ning 10 and drawing 4.ABCMotsepe Results: FC Buffalo 0 vs High-

bury FC 1, Morning Stars 1 vs Tornado 2,SUBS 2 vs La liga 1, Zimbane Killers FC 1 vsMthatha Bucks FC 0, Mthatha City 1 vs Caca-du UTD 0, Angavu 3 vs Real City 0, JB Milan0 vs Matta Milan FC 0 and Kokstad Liverpool1 vs FC Elliot 1.
