ATAXI driver accused of driving drunkand killing well known KwaDukuzaresident Francis Peters (35) had a

blood alcohol content more than fourtimes over the legal limit.

Taxi driver Freedom Sabela was alsocharged with culpable homicide and reck-less and negligent driving. He appeared inthe KwaDukuzaMagistrate’s Court onMon-day and was remanded in custody.

The accident occurred in the earlyhours of Saturday morning when Petersand his brother-in-law, Ronald Chinniah,were on their way home after a six-to-sixshift at Sappi Stanger.

The crash took place just two streetsaway fromPeter's home inMahatmaGandhiStreet. Chinniah, who lives in Glenhills, wasturning right into Albert Luthuli Street whenthe taxi, travelling at a high speed towardsthe recreation ground, failed to stop at theredtrafficlightandcrashedintothecar,killingPeters instantly.

Chinniah, who was driving the vehicle,escaped with internal injuries and is in a

stable condition at Victoria Hospital in Ton-gaat.

Sabela abandonedhisvehicleandfledthescene. However, he was arrested by mem-bers of the KwaDukuza SAPS in MahatmaGandhi Street.

According to a police source, the chargesmay later be changed tomurder. This is be-cause Sabela was under the influence, shotthe red traffic light, fled the scene and killedan innocent person.

Peters' family described Peters as awon-derful human being who loved life.

“The large turnout at his funeral justshows you that Peters was well respectedand loved.”

Peters leaves behind his wife Roseanne,parents George and Shiela and sisters Man-dy and Leann. Francis Peters

“A promise for a better life for allhas become a disappointment forresidents, especially with regards tothe BCR’s inability to progress the de-velopment.

“The controversy of the landclaimdispute and the deterioration of theliving conditions of the community[must also be addressed]” saidNarain.

Protesters demand water>> Doringkop residents say ward councillor gave them “false information”

NOTHANDO NDLOVU

OVER 200 Doringkop residentsfrom Wards 1 and 25 took tothe streets on Thursday, de-

manding that they receive water.The angry residents blocked the

roads saying that their ward coun-cillorsmust be held accountable asthey had not received water by 25September, as promised.

“We have taps that have been in-stalled at our houses but there is norunning water.

“We now depend on the rain sothat we can get water to drink other-wise we have to fetch water from theriver, which is not clean,” said a resi-dent.

Fearing that they may be side-linedwhen there are “job opportuni-ties” in the area, three protestersspoke to the Weekly on condition ofanonymity.

“Our councillor gave us false in-formation. There is a water tankerthat delivers water directly to hishouse, which is why he is not affect-ed by this.

“Today we have not had a bath.We basically cannot do anythingwithout water.

“Before the councillors took over,we had running water in our house-holds. But now, the water tankersometimes only delivers water at1am.”

Ward councillor Wiseman Ndi-mande declined comment, and in-stead directed the Weekly to theIlembe communications’ unit.

However, when asked about thewater tanker that allegedly deliverswater tohis house, he said that even

though there is no water in the area,“each person canmakemeans to getwater at a certain cost”.

A community member said thewater problem started in 2008, butpipes were installed in 2011.

“Installing the pipes was a wasteof government’s money becausethey are not functioning,” said theresident.

According to Ilembe District Mu-nicipality’s Communications’ Man-ager, Zee Nqala, the water is avail-able on stand-pipes.

Nqala said this had been the case

since the morning of Friday, 27September.

“There was water on 25 Septem-ber as promised, but more time wasneeded toenergise thewhole system.

“The district needed tomake surethat the reservoir was at a comfort-able level to ensure sufficient supplyof water to everyone in the area.

“The iLembe District Municipali-ty, led by His Worship the MayorCllr Welcome Mdabe, would like toapologise profusely to the people ofDoringkop for the inconvenience,”said Nqala.

The National Union of Met-alworkers of South Africa(NUMSA) signed off on a wagedeal that secured an 11.6 per-cent increase for workers forthis year.In 2014, the increase is nine

per cent and in 2015, anothernine per cent.This means petrol attendants

would receive a wage increaseof R2 per hour as of today(Wednesday, 2 October).

Numsageneral secretary Ir-vin Jim hailed the strike as asuccess.

Numsa was still engaged innegotiationswith employers inthe automotive industry as itsworkers were still on strike.

Jim said they would not ac-cept anything less than a “de-cent offer”.

THE only way to fight the highrate of drug and alcohol abusein the area is by having police

informers and those who will bebrave enough to testify in courtwhenthe suspects are arrested, says Sun-dumbili SAPS spokesman Lt GideonMthethwa.

Mthethwa was addressing over500 residents at a crime awarenesscampaign held at Buhle BeSun-dumbili sports stadiumonThursday.The campaign was held after wardcouncillor Chris Ngcobo, MandeniMunicipality, and SAPS asked theKZN Department of CommunitySafety and Liaison to intervene.

Mthethwa said: “It is sad to seethat Sundumbili has become a depotfor drugs. We are facing a huge riskas our children are affected bydrugs.

“We need the community to act aswhistle-blowers so that drug dealerscan be placed behind bars.”He said people are too scared totestify after arrests have been made,which leads to the dealers walkingfree.

Mthethwa said the police weredoing their job as they arrested 250

criminals during the April 2012 toMarch 2013 financial year.

Ngcobo urged parents to talk totheirchildrenregardingdrugsandal-cohol.

District coordinator, Dorah Nsi-bande said: “We are here to speakto the youth. Statistics indicate thatthey are the ones who are occupying

correctional service centres, tavernsandother places.Weare here to fightdrugs. Let’s work together in doingthis. Everything that happens in thecommunity is in your hands.”

A member of Narcotics Anony-mous, RevashanNaidoo , also spoketo the crowd about his addiction.“I left school because of drugs and

ended up on the streets. Thereafter Iwent to rehab and because of God’smercy I no longer smoke.”He encouraged youngsterswho havean addiction to turn to God for guid-ance.“Even though it was really hard toquit, Godhelpedmedo it. It is not im-possible.”

‘Take charge’ says CPF>> Take charge, fight crime: CPF chairperson

MERVYN KRISHNA

“THE onlyway to fight crimeis to take charge,” saysnewly electedKwaDukuza

Community Policing Forum (CPF)chairperson, Sipho Hlatswayo.

According to the crime statisticsreleased lastweek, crime is on the upin KwaDukuza.

Houseburglaries rose to969com-paredwith last year's732,hijackingsare up by 35 and murder.

Hlastwayo said on the ground sta-tistics makes very little difference asthere was a general feeling of fear.

“Residents need to create a safeenvironment by being the eyes andears for the police. Make it your dutyto do patrols and contact the police ifyou notice any suspicious activity,”said Hlastwayo.

“The reason for the increase incrime can be attributed to residentsnot being proactive.Manypeople areof the view that by patrolling you areputtingyourlifeatrisk.Thisisnottruebecausewedonotapprehendpeople,but instead contact police for assis-tance.”

Headded that residentsneed tobemore alert and follow crime trends in

the area.Hlatswayoaddedthat thecommu-

nity needs to report crimes , so thatthey were aware of which areas arebeing targeted and could act accord-ingly.

Agreeing with Hlatswayo, chair-man of the Stanger Heights/ Doktor-skopNeighbourhoodWatchandCivicAssociation, Anil Kissoonlal said thecommunity must be more proactive.

Kissoonlal added they had a goodworking relationship with the policeand the local security companies hadjointly been successful in clampingdown on crime in the area.

“Currently, we have very littlecrimes reported in our area. Previ-ously we had several robberies andtheft in thearea.Wecurbed theprob-lembyusingresidentstopatrolthear-ea. “We start at 6pm until the earlyhours of the morning.”

Headded thatwithouthisdedicat-ed team doing patrols, the crime fig-ures in the area would have beenhigh.

“Theonlywaythingswillgetbetteris if we take charge and let criminalsthink they have the freedom to do asthey wish,” said Kissoonlal .

MOST people who rent homes tend to focusmost of their energy on their tenant rights,and why not!

This is important since you do not want to be mis­treated as a tenant. Renters should also focus onbuilding a great relationship with their landlords andneighbours. Why do this? Because great tenants havean upper hand when it comes to rental negotiationsand increases.

Happy neighbours mean less awkward confronta­tions, and a happy landlord means peaceful livingwithout surprise check­ups, and when it comes timeto renew the lease, a great tenant knows the landlordwon’t drop them suddenly and may even be able tore­negotiate the terms favourably. A good rental his­tory could get you lower rent rates without movingand more perks on your lease renewal.SOME USEFUL TIPS FOR WAYS YOU CAN BETHAT GREAT TENANT:-Read your lease

Read your lease cover to cover before you sign it.It will help you pick up potential problems before theyactually happen. Good landlords will work with youon the terms of the lease. If you have a special circum­stance, such as a family member or friend who visitsregularly, tell the landlord about it ahead of time.

Let the landlord know if you are going to keeppets and agree on how many and how you intend tak­ing care of them.

If the landlord makes any verbal agreement withyou, like mowing the lawn and painting, make surehe puts it in writing in the lease. Then ask for a copyof the lease for yourself as soon as you sign it. Havinga well­rounded lease will help you avoid any tenant’s

rights issues later on.Don’t break the leaseMost renters think of breaking a lease in terms of thebig things like not paying the rent, cutting out earlyor subletting without permission. However, smallerleasepointscounttoo.Whilealandlordcantechnical­ly evict a tenant for breaking any term of a lease, mostwon’t.Butthebetteryousticktoyourlease,the betterchance you have of existing peacefully.Pay your rent on timeNothing makes a landlord happier than a renter whopays rent on time. You might even score a few browniepoints if you pay a few days early. Since no one is im­mune from financial hardship, if you know you mighthave to pay late one month, let your landlord knowas soon as possible. The landlord may not mind thelate payment as much, if you’re upfront about it.Treat your rental like you own itTaking good care of your rented place will ensure thatyou get your deposit back when you move out, andit will also put you in a good standing with your land­lord. While normal wear and tear is typical in rentalunits, do not cause any major damage to the property.Damages will eat away at your security deposit andannoy your landlord.

People speak! You being a good tenant to thelandlord increases your chances if your circumstanceschangeandyouneedanotherapartmenttorent, yourpositive image helps.

If your landlord is considering selling his propertyhe would rather sell it to someone like you who is ca­pable of taking good care of such property. You mighteven be able to negotiate a deal of a lifetime, onlybecause you have been a good tenant!

Being a great

TENANTEVERY person makes countless choices everyday.

Every choice we make has an impact on our lives.Even significant choices can affect what we experi­ence and how we feel. When hunger strikes, we canreach for a nutritious snack, or we can choose the highof junk food. So the more important the decision, themore profound its effect. For instance, how do we acttowards that person who treated us badly? Do wegenerally choose to be passive, or do we actively setclear intentions and create what we want in our lives?

Every choice we make, however big or small, af­fects us in some way! If you're interested in living aricher, fuller life, there is a foundation upon which youand I can base all our decisions which can make lifebetter not only for us, but also for those around us.

This foundation is to choose based on what's best­ what's best for ourselves and others.

Imagine if every parent, spouse, friend, teacher,businessperson and politician truly did their best forall involved in every decision they made. We wouldcertainly live in a more caring, supportive world! "Buthow do we know what is really best?" you might ask.The answer is simple. It does not matter. What mat­ters is not the choice we make, but rather the inten­tions behind our choices.

Choosing what's best does not mean you have toalways sacrifice yourself for others. For example, anoverly exhausted mother can lose her temper easily.

Some time off for this mother might seem selfish,yet in the long run, it can help her be a better motherto her children.

So as we move on through the days of our lives,letusremembertoincludeourselvesaswedoourbestto choose what's best for all of us...

What every womanshould know aboutbreast cancer>> A woman can develop breast cancer any time during her adult life ­ even as early as in her twenties

Who gets breast cancer?One out of 15 women will

develop the disease at somestageduringher lifetime. The riskof de-veloping breast cancer increases withage.

What is breast cancer?Breast cancer is not necessarily re-

stricted to a lump in the breast when di-agnosed, although that is generally thefirst sign of the disease.

As a matter of fact, it is not the lumpitself that kills, but rather the spreadingof cancerous cells to other parts of thebody,aphenomenonknownasmetasta-sis.

Breast cancer - a death sentence?Breastcancer isacollectionofdiseas-

es. Somecasesaremoreaggressivethan

others.The type and course that the disease

takesvaries frompatient topatient com-parable to thevariation thatexists in fin-gerprints.

In other words, the diagnosis ofbreastcancerisnotadeathsentence,butwill have a different impact on the livesof individual patients.

How is breast cancer treated?Thereare threemainarmsof treatment:surgery, radiotherapy and chemothera-py (which can include hormonal thera-py).

Surgery and radiotherapy are localtreatments, while chemotherapy is sys-temic,beingadministeredvia theblood-stream or digestive tract. In most casesa combination of treatments will be ap-

SELF EXAMINATION

In front of a mirror: Raiseyour arms above your headto check for changes in size,shape and contour of eachbreast. Look for puckering,dimpling or changes in skintexture. Gently squeeze bothnipples and look for dis­charge.

Lying down: Lie down withyou arm tucked behind yourhead. With the other handand with your fingers flat­tened, feel the oppositebreast.

This illustration shows you how tocheck each breast. Begin at pointA and follow the arrows, feelingfor a lump or thickening. Remem­ber to feel all parts of eachbreast. Most lumps are not cancer­ous, but if you find one, youshould get it checked by a doctorimmediately.

Underarm area: Begin in the un­derarm area and move your fingersdown until they are below thebreast. Move your fingers in towardthe centre and go slowly back up.Cover the whole area, going upand down. With your arm restingon a firm surface, use the samemotion to examine the underarm.

What is a Breast Self-Examination(BSE)?

Breast self­examination is a procedureperformed by an individual to physically andvisually examine herself for any changes inthe breasts and underarm areas of the body.

IthasnotshownthatBSEalonecanaccu­rately determine the presence of breast can­cer.

Therefore, BSE should not be used inplace of, but in addition to, clinical breast ex­amination and mammography.

usually look and feel so that you will noticeany changes from what is normal for you.>> If you still menstruate, the best time todo BSE is several days, or about a week, afteryour period ends. These are the days whenyour breasts are least likely to be tender orswollen.>> Ifyounolongermenstruate,pick acertainday ­ such as the first day of each month ­to remind yourself to do BSE.>> If you are taking hormones, talk with yourphysician about when to do BSE.

When should a Breast Self-Exami-nation (BSE) be done?

By doing BSE regularly, you get to knowhow your breasts normally feel so that youare more apt to detect any change.

Women should start breast self­examina­tion at 20 years old and continue the practicethroughout their lives ­ even during pregnan­cy and after menopause.

Breast self­examination should be per­formed every month.

Become familiar with how your breasts

In the show-er: While tak­ing a shower(or bath), ex­plore thebreast and un­derarm areaswith your fin­gertips. Raiseone arm andplace yourhand at theback of your head. Slowly and methodi­cally, move the pads of your fingertipsover the breast in a circular pattern.Don't forget to feel the armpit area.Repeat on the other breast with youropposite hand.

How is breast cancer treated?Thereare threemainarmsof treatment:surgery, radiotherapy and chemothera-py (which can include hormonal thera-py).

Surgery and radiotherapy are localtreatments, while chemotherapy is sys-temic,beingadministeredvia theblood-stream or digestive tract. In most casesa combination of treatments will be ap-

plied.Does a patient need to lose her

breast/s?NO. It has been proven in large over-

seasstudies thatamastectomy(removalof the breast) offers no survival benefit,when comparedwith treatment that re-moves only the lump.

Small lumpscanberemovedwithex-cellent cosmetic results.

Thisapproachresults infar lessmuti-lation and emotional distress for the in-dividual.

Withadvancesinchemotherapy,hor-monal and gene therapy, it is rarely nec-essary to perform a mastectomy.

A mastectomy should not be offeredas first treatment. Its application is re-stricted to very specific cases.

What if the lump is too big?Thereisastrongpossibilitythatsome

cancer cells have already found theirway via the blood stream to other partsof the body (bone, lung or liver).

These cancer cells that went astray(micro-metastasis)cannotalwaysbede-tectedwith the available tests such as x-rays and scans. With a large tumourthere is more than a 70% chance of mi-cro-metastasis. Systemic treatment(chemotherapy ± hormonal therapy)should then be administered to shrinkthe tumour and at the same time kill thecells outside the boundaries of thebreast. If the tumour has shrunk suffi-ciently, it canbe removedwith good cos-metic results - resulting in far less trau-ma and mutilation for the patient.

It iscurrently the bestmethod of detec­tion.How is a mam-mogram done?When a womanhas a mammo­gram, she standsnext to the x­raymachine and a ra­diologist helps toplace her breastbetween twocompressionplates (plastictrays) which flat­ten the breastwhile the X­ray istaken. The platesare used to com­press the breastto a thickness ofabout 4­6cm.More compressionrequires less radia­tion and the bet­ter the image pro­duced. It may be alittle uncomfort­able for a while,but the procedureis well worth it.Who shouldhave a mammo-gram?For woman over50 a mammo­gram should bedone every one ­two years (Euro­pean recommen­dation).

South Africans are living, on average, sevenyears longer. This means that you will have tostretch your retirement savings even furtheror delay your retirement. Wilfred Moyo,Investment & Economic Strategist at Metropolitanexplains the steps to ensure a comfortable retirement.

1. Set your retirement goalBefore you start your journey, you can estimate howmuch money you will need to save for retirementto maintain your current standard of living. Apension equal to 60% to 75% of the salary you areearning in the year before you retire will be enough.For example, if your income before you retired isR10 000, a pension of R7 000 should be enough tomaintain your lifestyle.

2. Find the best retirement savings optionYou can save for retirement in a retirement annuity(RA), pension or preservation fund, savings plan orbank account.A retirement annuity is designed forretirement savings and you get tax breaks as well.You can save a set amount every month into your

RA to build up a retirement fund. You can also save a large single amount of money into yourRA (i.e. you can save R300 every month or R1 000 every three months).

3. Check your savings regularly against your retirement goalRetirement is a long-term saving goal. You need to check the retirement fund valueagainst your retirement goal. A qualified financial adviser can assist you by using the rightfinancial tools. If you are not savings enough to meet your target, you may have to increaseyour contribution to your retirement fund. You can start by revising your monthly budget

to cut down on unnecessary spending. For example, eat less takeout food and preparehome-cooked meals.

4. Don’t be tempted to cash in your fund before retirementIt can be very tempting to dip into your retirement fund to help pay off debt now. If you areretrenched or resign from your job, move your retirement money to a preservation fund oranother retirement product. If you cash out your retirement fund and spend the money, youwill have to save twice as much to make up for it.

5. Know your options when you retireAs you get closer to retirement, you need to start considering the details of the annuity that you willpurchase.Anannuity isapolicywhereyouwill investyourretirementfundtosecurearegularpension.

At retirement, you will be faced with a number of annuity options, for example a living annuity,joint life annuity, etc. This is a critical stage in your retirement journey. Your financial adviser canexplain each type of annuity along with the advantages and disadvantages of each.

This important decision means the difference between making your retirement money lastand running out of money midway through retirement.

6. Shop around for competitive annuity ratesWhen choosing an annuity, compare the annuity rates offered by the various insurancecompanies. The annuity rate is the rate of interest used to determine your monthlyannuity amount. The higher the annuity rate, the more pension you’ll receive. Try toaim for the company that offers the best annuity rates.

After a sluggish start, Grove End found a new leaseof life and quickly moved to match-point (24-22). Butman-of-the-matchJugmohan, enjoyingabevyof goodsetsfromNeerajBagelooguidedRandsonstoathrilling26-24 win.

ILEMBE Cricket Union got off to a disappointing startin the 2013/2014 KwaZulu­Natal Challenge Leagueafter going down by 9­runs to Chatsworth CricketClub at the Penguin Street Grounds in Chatsworthon Sunday.

The 50­over league game was reduced to 20overs due a damp pitch and waterlogged outfield.The match initially scheduled to get underway at9am kicked off well after 1.30pm.

The decision by Ilembe to bowl first after winningthe toss backfired with openers Neolan Pillay andDaylin Gounden posting a splendid 82­runs openingstandin14overs.DaylinwasrunoutbyDillonRauten­bach for a well played 32 runs which included threefours and a huge six.

Four overs later Darryl Govener (4) was caughtby Alveiro Nadasen off the bowling of Yusuf Moolla.

The visitors grabbed two late wickets in the lastover of the match with Preneshan Pillay (11) caughtand bowled by Nadasen before opener Neolin dis­missed by Nadasen.

Neolin scored a brilliant 47 runs which includedsix boundaries. Nadasen was the pick of the Ilembebowlers claiming 2/21 from 3 overs.

Chasing 110 runs for victory (at a rate of 5,5 runsper over) Ilembe got off to a disastrous start afterRadeshwar Singh was adjudged LBW to a Neolin de­livery for just one run. The visitors lost the 2nd wicketwith just 29 runs on the board after Steven Jacobs(22) was dismissed by Preneshan Pillay.

At the end of their allotted 20­overs Ilembe were9­runsbehindthehostswithDarrylGovender(22notout.) and Rautenbach (22 not out) holding theirheads in disbelief.
