LAVENDER HILL

Givingfood theway toher heartTIYESE JERANJI

@jeranji

Mary Bam (59) from Monta-gue Village in Lavender Hillsays helping her neigh-

bours makes her sleep better atnight. Nothing can beat her smilewhen she knows that someone isgoing home with a full stomach.

Known as Aunty Mary, she saysher community is her everything.She makes food for seniors weekly,hosts Christmas lunches and giveschildren food all the time.

Seeing people happy and eatingtogether warms her heart.

“My community is my priority.I love them so much and I reallylike working with them. Our com-munity has a lot of challenges todeal with ... crime, gangsterismand poverty, but knowing that Ican help others with a plate of foodmeans a lot to me,” she says.

To earn money to buy the foodshe works as a supervisor at ascrapyard close to her home threedays a week. She has six childrenand 14 grandchildren and is gladthat all of them support her in hercommunity work.

“I use most of the money that Imake at the scrapyard to feed thecommunity. For me, as long as Ihave sugar for my tea I’m okay, I

don’t worry about food.”Bam believes she is being given

a second chance in life – that’s whyshe is dedicated to helping others.She was sexually abused in child-hood and verbally abused as anadult. She even tried to commit sui-cide. Talking about the abusehelped her gain strength.

“Today I’m a survivor; I’mstronger than I have ever been.That’s why I also take time to helpother abused people in my commu-nity. I counsel abused women andchildren. I can help them talk be-cause I have walked that road. I en-courage them to open up, becausetalking about it is the first step tohealing,” she says.

Bam is in the process of register-ing her organisation, which will bea trauma counselling centre and aplace of hope for the abused. She al-so wants to start an after-schoolcare centre to keep children off thestreets.

“In the meantime, I will just con-tinue to help where I can with themoney that I get from the scrap-yard and my family. If there is any-one out there who can help withfood, clothes it will add to what Imake every day and we can changeother people’s lives.”V Those who want to donate or help Bamcan call her on 060 505 2700.

For me, as long as Ihave sugar for my teaI’m okay, I don’t worry about food“

HEATHFIELD

Many schools turned herdown, but Luca’s settledTIYESE JERANJI

@jeranji

LucaMuller (7) fromHeathfield has Downsyndrome but it’s not bringing her down.The bubbly, friendly girl just started

Grade 1 at Yeshua Christian PrimarySchool, which is a mainstream school. Sheis the first child with a disability to be ac-cepted at the school.Luca’s family is over the moon that the

school was willing to take the plunge withthem.People’s Post previously reported on her

mother Katrina Muller’s campaign Run-ning for Luca to raise awareness aboutDown syndrome. (“Perfect in imperfec-tion”, 5 May 2015).“When I gave birth to Luca and I saw that

she had Down syndrome, I thought to my-self I should do something. I needed a plat-formwhere I could do something for her be-cause I couldn’t help herwith the condition,but I wanted something done. I have beena runner for years so I thought I would startRunning for Luca to raise awareness. Doingit really made me feel better. I wanted mychild to live a normal life. I wanted peopleto know that there was such a thing andthey shouldn’t shy awayandkeep their chil-dren indoors. I have alwayswanted the bestfor Luca.”

School is also learningMuller also says it hasn’t been an easy

road, but everything is working out perfect-ly.

“It took a lot of preparation and work-shops for almost a year to get her and every-one else to be ready for her to start school.I’m really glad that they were willing to tryit out and see how it goes. I don’t know howmany schools I called for placement – no-one was willing to even listen when I men-tioned Down syndrome.“However, at Yeshua they opened their

arms to her. They were willing to learn asmuch as we were trying it out as well bysending her to a mainstream school.“At themoment she has a facilitator help-

ing her out here and there, but she is doingvery well. Most of all the other kids madeit easy for her to adapt. I remember whenI dropped her at school on the first day theirreception was amazing. I was stunned, Icouldn’t believe it. They were all drawn toher ... took her and went to play. They justmade it easy for me to leave her there,” shesays.Muller adds that there is more to learn

from each other. “Luca has life lessons forthem. They will learn compassion, caring,sharing. She can also learn from them howthings are done in class.“In fighting for Luca and all this running

I want to tell everyone that it can be done.

Children with Down syndrome are capableof living a normal life. Though they mightneed a little help here and there, they arestill capable of living a normal life, just likeanyone else, and that’s what we wanted forLuca. That’s what we want for every otherchild out there,” she says.Muller’s wish is that more children with

Down syndrome are integrated in normalsociety.“People have to know about them. I’m re-

ally grateful that the school was willing totry. They are a small school and I knowLucawill get all the attention she needs.“They are trying to add more classrooms

at the school and itwill be reallynice for peo-ple to help. Because they have opened uptheir hands, we can also help them,” shesays.With World Down Syndrome Day on 21

MarchMuller is calling on runners for Run-ning for Luca and parents and childrenwithDown syndrome to come together and raiseawareness.V Readers who want to join Running for Luca or whoneed help with their children can contact Muller on082 327 7404 or [email protected] or visit theRunning for Luca-Down Syndrome is beautiful pageon Facebook.

CHEVON BOOYSEN@ChevonBooysen

Years after being separated fromher par-ents, she has finally decided to piece to-gether the puzzle of her life.

Berenice Henkeman (née Brits), a 28-year-old woman who lives in Bridge-town, Athlone says she wants to find herparents after all these years to rid herselfof the uncertainty she has had to dealwith all her life.“I have no idea who my parents are

and I also have no idea where they live.I grew up in an orphanage and that is theonly family I know,” Henkeman says.Growing up without her siblings was

also tough, althoughshehas contactwithone of her two brothers, who was also infoster care.

“I know I have another brother aswell,but I haveno ideawherehe is. Theuncer-tainty is really taking a toll on me afterall these years and I just want to find outwho and where my family is, because Ido not even know if I’m passing right bya family member when walking out-side,” she says.Henkeman, who has two children aged

15 months and eight years, says she alsowants her children to meet her family.“My daughter has already asked me

about where my parents are and I do nothave answers for her and this reallybreaks me. I want them growing upknowing who their family is. My son isalso going to start asking questions one

day and I do not want to be uncertain un-til that time,” she says.

She has started her search, but says ithas “been a struggle so far”.

The names of her parents – JenniferBrits and Fuad Davids – were given toher at the orphanage before she left thehome at age 20.“I was taken to the orphanage when I

was a baby and now they need to locatethe social worker who took me there be-cause she is the only one who knewwhere my parents lived. If I do not havethe information of the social worker thisis going to be an even longer process,”she says.

Henkeman says she has been left withmany questions and feels “it should stopnow. I have had enough of not knowing.”

“I do not even know if Berenice is myreal name, because I didn’t have a birthcertificate. All I know is I was born atGroote Schuur and the orphanage wentto home affairs to help me obtain myidentity document.”Although she says she does not know

how to feel about eventually being re-united with her parents, she is deter-mined to find them.“I want my children to grow up know-

ing them. And I also want to finally meetthem and know who they are. I do noteven know if they are still alive but I justneed to know andmake peace with final-ly getting some answers,” she says.V If you are able to help Henkeman in locatingher family, email her on [email protected].

RETREAT

Seniors get to feel the loveTIYESE JERANJI

@jeranji

Residents of the Douglas MurrayOld Age Home in Retreat had a

Valentine’s Day to remember asthey had volunteers of the Restor-ingHopeAssociationpamper themthroughout the day.

The seniors had a day full of ac-tivities as theyhad theynails done,their hair cut, their beards shaved,received massages and were enter-tained with games. They were alsoserved food before they were givengifts to seal the day.RestoringHopeAssociation says

it saw this as an important thingto do – to cheer up the senior citi-zenswhohaveno contactwith fam-ily or loved ones due to differentcircumstances. The organisation’svolunteers wanted to make themfeel special and loved as everyoneelse celebrated the day of love.

The smiles and cheerful faces ofthe residents showed that they hada good time.

Kelly Jacobs, secretary of Re-storing Hope Association, says theaim of the programme is to giveback to the community andhonourthe elderly.

“Often, the elderly members ofthe community are neglected byfamily, friends and society in gen-eral. So many of them have madea lot of sacrifices in their lives fortheir loved ones as well as thegreater community. Many of themno longer have contact with theirloved ones or some have lost manyof their loved ones.

“So we thought the day will be aperfect excuse to show them love aswell. In light of this, we felt thatthey needed a day to be spoilt andfeel appreciated.We felt thatValen-tine’s Daywould be an appropriatetime for them to feel special and

cared for, and spend it in a waywhere they will feel loved and ap-preciated. We aim to plant a seedof hope in the elderly individualsat Douglas Murray, that they arecared for and appreciated by mem-bers in the community by makingValentine’s Day a special day forthem,” she says.The Association runs a number

of projects in the community,which include food and clothingdrives, motivational speaking andworkshops at schools, communitycentres, prisons and events, sportsinitiatives and outreaches to uplift

communities. The organisationstarted last year and they say allthey want to do is to restore hope.

“Wewant to uplift our communi-ties through the different pro-grammes that we have. We aim toassist people with their day-to-daylives and to empower them.Through motivational talks theywill know that there is help outthere.

“This year we are planning to goeven bigger and visit an orphanageand run a lot more programmesthat will restore hope in our peo-ple,” says Jacobs.

Eight lives leftfor Nahla the catTIYESE JERANJI

@jeranji

Nahla, a beloved pet cat from Diep Riverthat was allegedly shot by a neighbour,

has been found alive.But she was found “in a very bad state”

two weeks after the shooting.She was found hid-

ing in the kitchen of aschool near her homelast Wednesday.

It is believed WayneCleinwerck’s cat ranto the school after shewas shot. Someonefound her there andnursed her before shewas taken to a vet,where she still is.

The neighbour whoallegedly shot herwith an air rifle intheir communal gar-den, Antonie Gericke,has already made hisfirst court appearanceon charges of animalcruelty after Nahla’sowners opened a caseagainst him (“‘Catshooter’ in court”,People’s Post, 9 Febru-ary).

Nahla has to under-go an operation be-cause the bullet is still lodged in her body(very close to her heart) and she has torna ligament.

Bliqees Masoet, Cleinwerck’s partner,says they are glad that Nahla has been

found.“We are happy, but she is in a very bad

state and she needs to go for an operationwhich costs a lot of money. She has lost somuch weight. We have a lot on our platenow.”

Stella Ramage, Masoet’s neighbour, saysthey are over themoon that Nahla hasbeen found.

“They are happy,but the challenge nowis to pay for the opera-tion. Someone foundNahla and looked aft-er her and took her toa vet. We are gratefulto all the people whowere involved tomake sure that shewas found,” she says.

Belinda Abraham ofthe Good Hope SPCAsays it’s wonderfulnews that Nahla hasbeen found.

“The family hassaid they don’t havethe money for an oper-ation for Nahla. AnSPCA vet is in touchwith the vet whereNahla is at the mo-ment and will seewhat can be done forher.

“Although Nahla has been found, Gerickeis still facing charges of animal cruelty,”says Abraham.

Gericke is expected back in WynbergMagistrate’s Court on Tuesday 1 March.

Nahla, the pet cat which was allegedlyshot by a neighbour, has been foundalive, but seriously injured.

The objective of the production is tocreate opportunities for pupils with cre-ative talents to showcase their skills,while at the same time engagingwith pu-pils from other schools and communi-ties.

“The success of the production lies inthe preparation and rehearsals, and thisis where Project 021 takes the opportuni-ty to impart various life lessonsandprin-ciples to pupils,” says David Cornelson,director of Project 021.

Cornelson says theywant to accommo-date 150 youngsters this year. A numberof pupils from areas such as Mitchell’sPlain and Grassy Park have already reg-istered.

mon goal and work towards achieving ittogether,” he says.

CITY ACTS TO RESOLVE LONG VEHICLELICENCE QUEUES

The City of Cape Town has stepped in to issue licence disc renewal reminders. Vehicle ownerswill now be receiving renewal notices from the City rather than from national agencies as theydid previously.

This will reduce the inconvenience suffered over the past months which has been brought onby the failure of national government agencies to fulfil their responsibilities and which has putthe brakes on the issuing of renewal notices.

The National Department of Transport has not completed the transfer of the Electronic NationalTraffic Information System (eNaTIS) to the Road Traffic Management Corporation (RTMC). Theyare not sending out renewal notices and they are unable to supply the City with more eNaTISterminals to enable us to increase our service capacity at our municipal offices.

Other City interventions to date include:• serving clients before the official opening time of our offices of 08:00 where possible• remaining open until the last person in the queue has been attended to• having staff work overtime to increase the capacity to serve customers• redeploying staff to hotspots across the metro

Customers are also encouraged to apply for their vehicle licence online by visitingwww.capetown.gov.za/eservices.

National government regulations now require proof of residence when applying for a licencerenewal. So please don’t forget to bring your ID and, if possible, please make copies of your IDand proof of residence as this will reduce the time spent at our municipal centres.

For a full list of acceptable documents that constitute proof, residents can visit the WesternCape Government website: www.westerncape.gov.za/tpw

For more information please contact [email protected].

We thank you for your patience and support.

Agroup fromRetreatwants to turnaroundthe lure of drugs and gangs by showing

youngsters howmuchmusic can offer them.They have formed a music band to keep

youngsters off the streets by being a part ofthe band, since some have blamed a lack ofrecreational facilities for youngsters endingup in the worlds of drugs and gangsterism.The band, calledCapeTownMusicAssem-

bly, is open to everyone who has a love formusic or who wants to learn a thing or twofrom music.Eugene Jenniker, managing director of

the band, says there aren’t many opportuni-ties for young musicians in their communi-ties – that’s why he started the band.

“This is the first in our area. Though itwas started with the youth of Retreat andSteenberg in mind, it’s open for everyone inCape Town (that’s why we have that name).We want everyone to take part and benefitfrom it. Our aim is to help the youth and totake them off the streets.”Anyone from the age of 10 can join the

band and joining the band is free of charge.They practise at St Clemens Primary Schoolin Grassy Park every Monday from 19:00 to21:00. Transport is available for band mem-bers.“We live in areas affected by crime, so we

don’t want to take any chances. Band mem-bers are picked up at their homes anddropped at their doorsteps. We have to prac-tise late because some are at school and oth-ers at work.”

Theywill be havingmusic workshops andcamps every last Saturday of the month, sothat band members can learn even moreabout music.Growing up on the streets of Port Eliza-

beth, Jenniker says he never had such an op-portunity but strongly believes in opportu-nities presented by music.“I have seen people go far in music and I

wanted to present that opportunity for ouryouth in this area. We want more people todo their music grades so that they can jointhe army or police bands. We have so muchtalent in our communities; we just don’t getenoughopportunities. Butwith this bandwewant to turn things around. The band isplanning on going big.”V Those who want to join the band can contact Jenni-ker on 078 624 1178.

Young singer sets sights on 2016LOUISA STEYL

@LouNotes

Shehasn’t even got started yet andhermu-sic has already made its way to New

York.Local musician Lesley Dicxon will be offi-

cially launching her career with a mediapresentation on Thursday, but she’s alreadypromoting her debut single internationally.“Dream”, which was released in Decem-

ber, was mixed andmastered by the CuttingRoom Studios in New York, along with fourother tracks – a sign for her that’s she’s onthe right path.Lesley was just six when she made up her

mind that she wanted to become a perform-er. She had seen a video of Michael Jacksonperforming “Billy Jean” and she was sold.What followed was a school career filled

with cultural activities: from poetry anddancing to drama and singing. But shecouldn’t get enough and soon joined amusicacademy as well.After matriculating she was off to study

sound engineering at Cape Audio College tolearnmore about studios andwhat shewant-ed from the music industry.She used her time while studying to net-

work and learn the ins and outs of the localscene. Soon after graduating, she got crack-ing on the production of her future EP.Her biggest focus in the beginning was

songwriting, until she went into studio withfamily friend Benedict de Maar.“I could only get into studios as night,” she

says, adding that it was often just the twoof them working on the tracks.The driving force behindLesley’s decision

to take on music full time is her father, andher face lights up as she recalls: “My sisterresigned from work and all he said to herwas: ‘Don’t work for someone else, makeyour own business,’ Because that’s what hebelieves in.”

Lesley describes “Dream” as a combina-tion of rap, pop and reggae with inspiration-al lyrics. Her second single, also to be re-leased on Thursday, is a full-on reggae song.The song is for family members who get

left at home when someone in the familygoes out drinking.Lesley takes her inspiration for songs

from everyday life: things she’s experiencedor seen. “My [first] single is just about mydreams and insecurities.”It also turned out to act as an assertive in-

troduction. “2016 is the year for me.”Taking her songs to the studio in New

Yorkwas a way for Lesley to test herself andsee if hermusic is good enough to get accept-ed.“The moment I heard that they didn’t put

auto tune onmyvoice I knew: I can probablysing.”Now, with the added approval, her next

step is “getting her name out there”.Her music is available on iTunes and Am-

azon and she plans to perform as much aspossible after Thursday’s launch.In themeantime, listeners can keep an eye

on Lesley’s Facebook, Twitter and Insta-gram accounts or listen to her interview onHashtag Radio (hashtagradio.co.za) onThursday at 14:20 to stay up to date withwhat she’s busy with.V For more information about Lesley, and to hear asnippet of “Dream”, visit lesleydicxon.com.

The Ardmore Ceramic Art Cape Town exhi-bition hosted annually at the Cellars-Ho-henort Hotel in Constantia is back fromFriday to Sunday from 09:00 to 17:00 daily.

This year the exhibition is inspired bythe Kalahari. Standing as a testament to theway in which life is able to adapt and thrivein the harshness of extreme conditions, theKalahari offered the Ardmore artists athought-provoking fresh landscape and en-vironment to work with.

Ardmore founder Fée Halsted says thisyear’s Kalahari Cats exhibition has beenthe most challenging and exciting exhibi-tion for the Ardmore team to ever work onand she thinks that this collection includessome of their finest works ever produced.

Ardmore ceramic art is associated withan abundance of colour and lavish plantswith galloping wild animals as subjects.

The usual animals, like zebra, leopard,giraffe, elephant and crocodile, have beenexchanged for meerkat, badger, aardvark,ostrich, bat-eared fox, cheetah and blackdesert rhino.

“This new wilderness is a unique land-scape that heavily contrasts with anythingelse that our artists have worked on before.This is the first time they have had to usetheir expressive qualities to convey thestark and textured Kalahari, and they haveresponded to the plethora of Kalahari lifewith a new awakening and interest,” saysHalsted.

Part of the line-up of the exhibition is Bet-ty Ntshingila, known as the bird lady ofArdmore, who has been working with rap-tors as subject matter for the first time, aswell as lilac-breasted rollers, scarlet-breasted shrike, korhaan and hornbills.

Her social weaver nest-like vases areworks that Ardmore is looking forward toshowcase to collectors at the exhibition.

The Community Chest Carnival is back,with a refreshed feel this year, after a

break.The organisers are promising that it will

be bigger and better as there will be moreseating, more parking and generally a morestreamlined festival this year.

The carnival will feature tastes fromaround the world, including traditional fla-vours and all-time classics from the mostpopular stalls of carnivals gone by – the Neth-erlands, India, China, Italy and many more.

The four-day family event has also been re-vamped with gourmet food trucks, craftbeers and wine tasting to satisfy the tastebuds of the Mother City’s growing communi-

ty of foodies.The fun festival will take place at the May-

nardville Park in Wynberg a little later thanusual this year – from Wednesday 30 Marchto Saturday 2 April.

There will be live local music, fashionshows, a battle of school bands and crafts,books and local fashion stores. A pop-up cin-ema, presenting some classics, is a brand-new addition.

The Community Chest Carnival is one ofthe Mother City’s longest running and mostsuccessful family events. What began in 1951as a theatrical garden party has evolved intoa pageant of international food, local enter-tainment and family fun. The event attractsmore than 80 000 people over four days annu-ally.

It has become a signature on Community

Chest’s fundraising calendar and contrib-utes to the support the organisation providesto over 200 community organisationsthroughout the Western Cape.

“We are bringing back the nostalgia peopleso fondly remember from the golden yearsof the carnival. We also want to celebrate thefuture of the carnival with all the new ele-ments we believe our regular event goerswill grow to love for many more years tocome,” says Jo Pereira, head of strategy andsustainability of Community Chest in theWestern Cape.

The carnival is open from 16:00 to 23:00 onWednesday 30 March to Friday 1 April andfrom 10:00 to 23:00 on Saturday 2 April.V Tickets are available at the entrance of the carnivalat R50 for adults and R30 for children under the ageof 18. Pensioners get in free.

LEGAL TALK WITH DENZIL

Ignoring debtwill not makeit go awayDebt has become a huge problem in South Africa, especiallywith the interest hike andunemployment – it is estimated thatover 9m South Africans are over-indebted.

It has been reported that half of South Africa’s workforceis currently struggling with debt repayments, with a stagger-ing 6000 vehicles and 2000 homes being repossessed monthly.

25 000 people are in danger of losing their homes. And don’teven mention looming retrenchment and unemployment.

This is an alarming state of affairs as we are entering 2016.What is even more worrying is that we live in a culture in

which consumers think that ignoring the issue will make itdisappear. The reality is that it will only lead to undesiredresults, such as judgements and an unnecessary bureau list-ing.

The question is, if you find yourself in debt, what optionsdo you have to rectify your situation and how can you movecloser to obtaining financial freedom?

Your first step is recognising the signs that you are in debt:don’t be in denial and accept that you need help.

Examples of behaviours are regular short-term loans, pawnshop visits, using credit cards to buy basic necessities likefood or even using your credit cards to repay your short-termloans.

Your immediate solution would be to approach your creditprovider – be honest, transparent and discuss restructuringyourdebt repayment plan.Most importantly, livewithinyourmeans and budget. Eat at home, not restaurants, reducewasteful expenditure on luxury items and even downgradeyour car, house or accommodation.

If this fails, you may need to seek professional help beforelegal action is taken against you.

The secondoption to consider is sequestration.This iswhenyour liabilities exceed your assets. In other words, when yourdebt exceeds the money coming in.

When this is the case you are deemed insolvent. Once thishappens, the court can sell your assets (your home, car andpersonal effects) to repay all your liabilities and debt.

The third option is administration. This is a process inwhich you hand all your financial affairs to an administrator,who will consolidate all your debt, for a fee, and repay yourcredit providers on your behalf. The credit providers receivedebt repayment on your behalf.

There is nothing more powerful than educating yourselfand selecting the right option for you. Debt places an enor-mous amount of stress on the individual and affects every ar-ea of your life.V This column was contributed by Denzil Jacobs, an admitted advocatewith expertise in commercial law.

Use your vote as abargaining toolAllow me this opportunity toexpress my frustration with theslow pace of major development inareas such as Eastridge, BeaconValley, Tafelsig and other poorercoloured communities on the CapeFlats and in Atlantis and Mamre.

It is becoming clear to me andmany other people that we are theforgotten ones, the voting fodder.

We have to wait patiently andpray for prosperity to tricklethrough to our areas. A play parkhere and there and we have to begrateful and shut up. Our streetsare being swept and cleanedwhenever the responsible personfeels like it and at intervals quitefar and wide apart.

Over the last few years, cablethieves have stolen just aboutevery Telkom cable in these areas.Telkom staff took a radical decisionnot to replace cables, which undernormal circumstances would seemto be a rational decision to makeand I do understand this.

Why should law-abiding citizensand those who supported Telkomover many years be punished? Ihave not seen Telkom aggressively

chasing after these cable thieves. Iam also yet to see Telkom runninga high-impact campaign in areaswhere this problem has reachedcritical levels. I did, however, seeTelkom rolling out fibre technologyin some of the most affluent areasin our country, including Constan-tia, Bishopscourt, Camps Bay andSandton.

Gang violence has plagued manyparts of the Cape Flats for manymonths now. Why should ourpeople get used to the idea of livingin fear and accept that gangculture is part of our lives? Wedeserve better than this.

Reality is that many of ourpeople are suffering, struggling tomake ends meet and living a life ofdespondency.

As a coloured person living onthe Cape Flats, I am calling onevery potential voter to use theupcoming municipal election as abargaining tool in an effort to seereal development. Use your cell-phones and make video recordingsof every public meeting beingaddressed by potential wardcouncillors lobbying for your votes.

Ensure that you have hardevidence of all promises, which youcan hold against them in the eventof them winning in your ward. Wecan simply not afford to give awayour votes anymore. I certainlyhave no issue with people beingblindly loyal to their politicalparties, however, at which point doyou become loyal to your ownfamily and your own community?

These elected officials work forus and not the other way around.We need to hold them thoroughlyaccountable.

Your vote is as good as cash! Youwouldn’t overpay for a product atone store when you can buy it atanother store for way less money.Why would you continue voting fora councillor or a party that contin-ues to make promises and constant-ly fails to deliver?

If your current councillor failedto keep your streets clean, failed tobeautify your area, failed to holdregular meetings, failed to providedecent play parks for the children,failed to assist with your municipalmatters, then do not vote for thatsame person or his party. If yourchildren cannot play outside due togang violence and unsafe parks,vote out your councillor and votein a new person.

Let your councillor work andwork hard for that lucrativepackage they earn.

ROZARIO BROWN,Mitchell’s Plain

Claiming UIF is‘controlled chaos’On 4 December last year I went toregister to claim UIF benefits afterworking for one company for 16 years. Igot there at 06:00 and joined the queueoutside the locked offices, as they open at07:30, and then you have a very goodchance of being attended to on the sameday, as they turn everyone away at 15:30.

After many visits to the offices, by 25January my papers were all in order andall could be registered and accepted bythe UIF department. I was told on thatday by the consultant that in ten workingdays I would receive payment. As shehad requested my bank details to com-plete a form, which she kept, I was underthe impression that on 8 February theywould deposit the money into my ac-count.

At no given time did any one of theconsultants ever tell me I must come into sign first. On 11 February I phoned toquery the payment. I was told: “Yourmoney is available, but you did not comein to sign.” So when should I have goneto sign? How would I know to go in andsign? I was told I could go in the nextday (Friday) to sign, they would attend toit Monday and by Wednesday it would beavailable.

I am taken aback by the lack ofcommunication. The system is controlledchaos. If I did not query this, wherewould the money go? These are employedpeople at a government department thereto assist the unemployed.

DIEP RIVER

Much respect for keeper of orderTIYESE JERANJI

@jeranji

Friends and family paid their last respectsto Godfrey Cleinwerck (70), the first Ser-

jeant-at-Arms of Parliament in democraticSouth Africa.Cleinwerck, from Diep River, died of can-

cer on 4 February.His memorial service was held at All

Saints Church in Plumstead and the churchwas filled to capacity. Those who took to thepodium reminisced about the good timesthey had with Cleinwerck, at work and athome. Most said they would remember himfor his love for his family, his love of helpingother people and his love for animals.Eastric Brikkles, a long-time friend of

Cleinwerck, said he had fond memories.“We didn’t have any siblings, so we grew

up as siblings. We did everything together.We developed a bond which never filtered,not even a single day, but lasted for 70 years.Though we got old we made it a point thatwe meet now and again and talk about thegood times.

“He will be remembered as a passionateperson. He was someone who loved peopleand this was shown by his numerous phonecalls when it’s your birthday or anniversa-ry. This iswhatmost of uswillmiss themostabout him.“He taught me, and I believe many others

as well, that family bonds are important and

respect and loyalty go a long way. He lovedtalking to people he knew. Those he met forthe first time, he really made them feel wel-come and comfortable.“His passion for animals was undeniable.

He helped those orphaned and those thatwere in need of a loving home. We comfortourselveswith the fact that he really showedus his love,” said Brikkles.During his time as the Serjeant-at-Arms

he carried the mace, which is just over 1mlong and made of 18-carat gold, springbokskin, diamonds and platinum, on his shoul-der.He announced President Nelson Man-

dela’s first entry into theNational AssemblyChamber in 1994 and in 1999 he again an-nounced his procession out of the Chamberupon his retirement. He has also announcedthe entrance of all the presidents who fol-lowed after Mandela.The Serjeant-at-Arms is also the authority

of the Speaker of the House. Cleinwerck’snickname was “the bouncer of the NationalAssembly”, as he was called to escort Mem-bers of Parliament when they were ordered

to leave the Chamber during a sitting.Cleinwerck was the founder of the SA Ser-

jeant-at-Arms Association. As a foundingmember of the Commonwealth Associationof Serjeant-at-Arms forAfricahewas electedchairperson in 2000. He was also invited toattend numerous serjeant-at-arms conferen-ces in the UK, Australia, Kenya and Ghana.Regina Mhlomi took over the reins after

Cleinwerck retired in 2011. She describedhim as a brother.“Hewasaproudservant andahumbleper-

son. Considering the people of stature fromdifferent countries whom he worked withyou would think that he would treat his col-leagues differently, but hewas ahumble per-son. The same respect that he gave to thepresidents he gave to his colleagues. He re-spected everyone. We will forever miss thegentle giant, we carry your heart with us asyou have taught us a lot,” said Mhlomi.Cleinwerck leaves behind his wife Linda

towhomhewasmarried for 43 years, his twochildren Natasha and Wayne and a grand-child, Alexcia Rose.Cleinwerck was cremated.

Godfrey Cleinwerck was the first SerjeantatArms of our democratic parliament.

WP disabledgolfers win cupWestern Province’s golfers proved yet

again that golf is played on grass, notpaper, as the four bankers and 17-

year-old rookie Ignation Douries sealed ahat trick of victories in the Hollard Provin-cial Challenge of the SouthAfricanDisabledGolf Association (SADGA) on Sunday.Over 36 holes of rousing shot making and

spirited competition, WP rallied to triumphwith 11.5 points, defeating defending cham-pions Rest of Country (ROC) by two points.Gauteng finished a close third with ninepoints.The competition was hosted by Reich-

mansCapital at Zwartkop Country Club.There were lots of doubting Thomases

who didn’t believe that Douries would keeppace with deaf player Ryan Lotz and the ex-perienced leg amputees Morne Cronje, Ri-aan Spreeth and Trevor Reich.Douries collected two points forWP in the

first round and surprised with unexpecteddetermination at the closing hole in the finalround.Standing on the 18th tee, Douries was one

down to Virgil Foster from Gauteng and allsquare with Nico Wentzel from ROC after

the former Nedbank SA Disabled Openchampion won the 17th hole.“Itwasvery, very tight at the end, butDou-

ries handled the pressure like a real pro,”says proud WP skipper Pieter Verwey.“We had 10 points in hand, but ROC was

on 9.5 points and Gauteng had 8.5 points.Douries had to halve against Foster and beatWentzel to win the Provincial Challenge forus. It was touch and go, but Ignationwas likea little terrier that just wouldn’t let go.“Experience is always great, but there is

a huge case to be made for youthful exuber-ance, because Douries really did himself aswell asWP and the SADGAdevelopment ini-tiative – the first swing programme – veryproud.”Douries and Lotz both collected three

points for WP, Spreeth amassed two pointsand Cronje won the Most Valuable Playerhonour for the champion with 3.5 points.“Reich didn’t contribute any points this

year, but the team awarded him a gold starfor inspiring everyone else to greatness,”says Verwey. “Of course that means he paysfor all the celebratory drinks and all theFan-ta Douries wants.”

VOB would count themselves unlucky tolose 7-4 to Athlone in a local baseball leaguematch at Chukker Road on Saturday.VOBout-hitAthlone 6-4 and couldnot take

advantage of the twelve walks conceded byAthlone’s pitching.Both teams made two errors, with the A’s

defence securing a crucial double play.Grant Emmanuel (2 for 4) and Jared

Heynes (3 for 4) were VOB’s top hitters.Athlone’s cause was helped with two runs

batted in eachbyRiyaadMoosa,DillianDan-iels and Mathew Diedericks.Grant Robertson (7) and Jason Theys (2)

shared the pitching duties for VOB, as did

Alistair Veale (4) and Lee Marks (5) for A’s.

Westridge scalp BellvilleWestridge Yankees claimed another top

scalp when they beat Bellville 6-1 on Satur-day. Bellville, without six of their nationalplayers, found the pitching of Jayson Ripepia tough proposition and could only manageone run in the ninth inning. Ripepi threw8.2 innings before being replaced by brotherKyle,who got the last out. Jude deGee batted2 for 4 for the winners.

Giants bomb BattswoodAdominant pitchingperformancebyKurt

Pretorious help set up Maitland Giants’ 15-0demolition of Battswood.

Pretorious allowed three hits and struckout five in the five-innings game.Battswood’s pitching of Aneeq Hendricks

andNelsonMapika could not tame theMait-land hitting. Ryan Samie, Tariq George andCarlo Koks all batted 2 for 4 for the winners.

Bothasig see off CrusadersEvenwith five of their players awayonna-

tional team duty, Bothasig still maintainedtheir lead at the top of the log with a 12-1 vic-tory over Grassy Park Crusaders on Satur-day.Crusaders struggled to come to grips with

the pitching of Lucas Steinlein fromGerma-ny. They only managed to secure three hitsand one run in his five-inning stint on the

mound. He was replaced by Keenan Clarkfor the last two innings and Crusaders couldonly manage one hit.Bothasig, however, took advantage of

Cameron Fortuin in his four innings on themound. Fortuin conceded seven hits, threewalks, three strike outs and nine runs. Hewas replaced by Ashwin Kleintjies for thelast two innings. Kleintjies gave up threehits and two walks. Crusaders made four er-rors.Bothasig’s best hitters were Duane Felds-

man, Nicholas Eagles and Steinlein, all bat-ting 2 out 4.V This weekend’s fixtures: Crusaders v Athlone, Silver-tree v Westridge, VOB v Bellville and Bothasig v Dur-banville.
