MANDELA DAY CELEBRATIONS: SCHWEIZER HOSPITAL GETS A MAKEOVER

SCHWEIZER RENEKE - On Thursday, 18 July 2024, various stakeholders in the local municipality of Mamusa in Schweizer Reneke came together to celebrate Mandela Day by giving back to their community. The Schweizer Reneke District Hospital was the focal point of their 67 minutes initiative, where the stakeholders joined forces to make a meaningful difference.

Representatives from Mamusa Fire, the Office of the Speaker of Mamusa municipality, hospital board members, and staff from the hospital itself rolled up their sleeves to assist with a range of activities. These included cleaning the premises of the facility and removing weeds to beautify the surroundings.

But what made this day truly special was the extra touch of love and care shown to the patients. A delicious meal of soup and bread was specially prepared and served to the patients, going above and beyond their regular daily provisions. This small act of kindness brought joy and comfort to those in need, making it a truly memorable Mandela Day celebration.

Each department brought their working tools to ensure that the tasks were completed efficiently. The collaborative effort was a testament to the spirit of "Botho" and the legacy of Nelson Mandela, who believed in the power of collective action to drive positive change.

ONE SUSPECT SHOT DEAD, ONE AT LARGE, THREE ARRESTED IN REIVILO

REIVILO - One suspect was shot dead, and three others were injured when they were shot at by a victim they attempted to rob on Thursday, 04 July 2024, in Reivilo, outside Taung.

According to information shared with MORONGWA, the victim was walking to his uncle's shop, carrying a black plastic bag, when a white Audi A4 stopped in front of him. One of the five occupants allegedly pointed a firearm at him and took his plastic bag. The victim screamed and called his uncle, who came out with his pistol and fired shots at their vehicle.

Reports suggest that the victim managed to take cover, pulled out his own pistol, and fired shots. One of the suspects died at the scene, one sustained injuries, while three others fled on foot. Police were called, and the injured suspect was arrested at the scene and transported to the hospital. A search was conducted around Reivilo, and two more suspects, who were also injured, were found and arrested. The three men have been taken to the hospital and are under police guard, while a search for the fifth suspect is underway.

The three suspects, aged 24, 27 and 34 are expected to appear in absentia before the Taung Magistrate's court on Monday, 08 July 2024, for aggravated robbery.

Investigations into the matter are ongoing.

TAUNG MAN ARRESTED WITH FIREARM AND AMMUNITION

TAUNG - In a proactive operation conducted at New Stands, Maphoitsile village, law enforcement agencies have made a significant breakthrough in combating crime.
A joint effort by the Vryburg Public Order Police (POP), K9 Unit, Taung Crime Prevention Unit, and Schweizer-Reneke Crime Prevention Unit resulted in the arrest of a 44-year-old man on Friday, 5 July 2024.

The suspect was apprehended after being found in possession of a loaded 9 mm pistol equipped with a magazine and 11 rounds of ammunition. His failure to provide a valid explanation for possessing these items led to his immediate arrest.

The arrest marks a crucial step in the ongoing battle against unlawful possession of fi****ms and the prevention of violent crimes within the community. The suspect is slated to appear before the Taung Magistrates’ Court on Monday, 08 July 2024, where he faces charges related to the illegal possession of fi****ms and ammunition.

Lieutenant General Sello Kwena, Provincial Police Commissioner, commended the collaborative effort of the Dr Ruth Segomotsi Mompati team. He highlighted their dedication and swift action, which not only led to the apprehension of the suspect but also the confiscation of dangerous fi****ms. General Kwena extended his gratitude to the community members for their cooperation and support in the fight against crime.

Efforts like these underscore the commitment of law enforcement agencies to ensure the safety and security of all residents.
The swift response and effective coordination between different units demonstrate a proactive approach to tackling crime at its source.

MUNICIPALITY HIJACKED, SERVICE DELIVERY DISRUPTED

VRYBURG - A crisis is unfolding at Naledi Local Municipality, where a group of people hijacked the municipality, disrupting service delivery and terrorising employees. This has been noted by the Chairperson of Naledi Municipality Taxi Association, NAMTA, Modihi Machogo.

Speaking to MORONGWA, Mr Machogo described the situation as both untenable and worrisome.

NAMTA says the municipality offices have been unable to function efficiently due to this group's actions. "They have ransacked offices, destroyed important documents, and denied access to the public." He continued.

According to NAMTA, some of these people, operate illegal taxis, and are resisting the enforcement of municipal by-laws. "They are seeking to take control of the municipal finances to fund their businesses." NAMTA Chairperson said.

The Association accuses the police of condoning these illegal activities, failing to arrest or charge the perpetrators.

NAMTA has called upon the public to join them in their quest to stop these people and to restore order to the municipality.

"We cannot stand by and watch our town be run down," Machogo, said. "We will take it upon ourselves to defend the municipality and its employees if necessary."

The situation has raised concerns about the capture of the municipality by selfish interests and the compromise of service delivery. The community is urged to join forces with NAMTA to reclaim the municipality and ensure the delivery of essential services.

DITHAKONG - Joseph Sebogodi, 61, appeared before the Mothibistad Magistrate's Court on Wednesday, 5June 2024, facing a charge of culpable homicide following a deadly accident that claimed the life of a 9-year-old boy on Tuesday, 4 June 2024, in Dithakong village, Northern Cape province.

According to Sergeant Timothy Sam, Northern Cape police spokesperson, preliminary investigations indicate that a minibus taxi transporting school learners allegedly knocked over the child, causing his death instantly. "The driver was immediately arrested and appeared in court the next day," Sergeant Sam explained.

SPORTS MINISTER Z**I KODWA RESIGNS AFTER ARREST

Minister of Sports, Arts and Culture, Z**i Kodwa, resigned from his position today after being arrested on allegations of corruption earlier this morning. According to reports, Kodwa and Jehan Mackay, a businessman and former executive of Enterprise Outsourcing Holdings (EOH), were arrested by the Hawks' multi-disciplinary State Capture Task Team and appeared at the Palm Ridge Specialised Commercial Crime Court today. Kodwa and Mackay were each granted R30,000 bail, and their case was postponed to next month as investigations continue.

In a joint statement earlier, the South African Police Service and Hawks confirmed that the two suspects, aged 47 and 54, handed themselves over at Bramley Police Station this morning to face charges related to the Prevention and Combatting of Corrupt Activities Act, stemming from an ongoing investigation into corruption at state-owned entities and recommendations by the Zondo Commission on State Capture.

Kodwa's resignation was announced shortly after his arrest, with him denying any wrongdoing and vowing to challenge the charges against him.

In his resignation letter, the former Minister ''expressed his sincere appreciation to the President and the governing party for the opportunity to serve the nation. He also thanked all the staff at the Ministry and Department of Sport, Arts and Culture for the opportunity to serve with them, and to all stakeholders in Sport, Arts and Culture, with whom he has worked so well with as Minister''.
