“Let me get you something to eat or to drink” had been the invitation from Councillor NkosiJosias Mahlake when the Platinum Gazette’s editor bumped into him one evening at a localrestaurant before the last local government elections. “I am going to be the new mayor and Iplan a lot of projects to develop Greater Tubstse” he said then.
And so it was, but earlier this week the Provincial Executive Committee (PEC) of theANC in Limpopo announced that Mayor Mahlake, amongst several other mayors, had beenrecalled by the party.
Former Mayor Mahlake’s recall was a long time coming, with those in the knowwhispering into the newspapers ear just before the recent national and provincial electionsthat the mayor’s days are numbered, alleging that he has been summoned to Polokwaneand told to resign.
The newspaper’s effort to get it confirmed did not produce facts, so we never publishedanything at that stage. Mr Mahlake also did not answer his phone.
On election day the former mayor was present at a voting station the newspaper visitedat Leboeng and we discussed the rumours with him. “I defeated them and I am in theprocess to rectify whatever problems there are,” he said.
Alas, it seems that his political party only waited for the dust of the election to settlebefore the axe fell.
Concrete reasons for the former mayor’s demise was not furnished, but clues arerevealed in Limpopo Premier, Stanley Chupu Mathabata’s speech to the PEC on 21 Junejust before the mayors were recalled. He said “The one issue that we must continue to dealwith both at provincial and local government level is the problem and/or perception ofcorruption which we inherited from the previous administration which led to five(5)departments being placed under administration.
Our intervention within local government will also include restructuring of some of themunicipalities where we believe such intervention will enhance service delivery. In thisrespect, as this leadership we will refuse to be blackmailed by individuals who have grownbigger than the ANC and as such, when they deliver their budget speeches in theirmunicipalities, they just decide to attack the ANC out of the blue.
These are individuals who did not question the wisdom of the ANC when they weredeployed into the positions that they are holding. Now that are being redeployed, they aredoing that. It must be stated here and now that the ANC does not owe anybody any positionin government. All its deployees should thank the movement for having given them anopportunity to serve our people and they should do so with humility. The ANC can deployand redeploy its cadres as it deems fit”. He also sated that “Mao Tse-tung in his SelectedWorks on The Role of the Chinese Communist Party once attested that “We must affirmanew the discipline of the Party, namely: a) The individual is subordinate to the organization;b)The minority is subordinate to the majority; c) The lower level is subordinate to the higherlevel; and d) The entire membership is subordinate to the Central Committee. Whoeverviolates these articles of discipline disrupts the Party unity”.
It is in this context that at this PEC we wish to state that this time around, wrongpractices within the movement will not be launched from Limpopo”.
So, what now? Apparently the PEC will decide who the new mayors, also in GreaterTubatse Municipality, will be and after their decision, will announce how the party lists will beadjusted. In the meantime we have asked readers what they think of the issue – on pages 6and 7.

The protracted months long strike in mainly the Rustenburg area of the platinum industry isover after Anglo American Platinum Limited announced that it had signed a 3-year wageagreement with the Association of Mineworkers and Construction Union (AMCU), the termsof which take effect retrospectively, from 1 July 2013.The wage agreement includes acoordinbg to Anglo American Platiunum:
An annual increase of R1,000 per month in basic pay for A and B-band employees in years1 and 2 and R950 per month in year 3Increases in basic pay of 8% per annum for C and D1 for years 1 and 2 and 7.5% for year 3.Living-out allowances and Housing rent subsidies for employees will increase in line withCPI in year 1 and remain flat in years 2 and 3Housing allowance will increase by 8% in year 1 and remain flat in years 2 and 3; andOther allowances will increase in line with salary increases in year 1 and there will be nofurther increases in years 2 and 3. This is in order to fund the increase agreed to in basicpay.
The company says the principles that underpin the agreement seek to achieve a sustainablefuture for Anglo American Platinum for the benefit of all stakeholders and to provideemployees with the most competitive increase in the current financial circumstances. Theagreement is expected to increase the total labour cost-to-company by 10.5% in year 1;7.7% in year 2 and 7.1% in year 3 or 8.4% on average over the 3 year period. Thecompany has also undertaken to assist returning employees in the first month with theprovision of food parcels, health supplements, transport relief and the cash payment of backpay within 7 days for the period they were not on strike as the principle of “no-work no-pay’applied for the duration of the strike. Anglo American Platinum will further assist employeesin managing their indebtedness and personal finances by providing legal aid and personalfinancial training to ensure they take a more robust approach to their personal finances.Furthermore, it has been agreed that no strikes will be undertaken, related to any of theitems covered by the wage agreement, for the three year duration of the agreement. As partof the Company’s overall cultural transformation that had already commenced, a process ofbuilding bridges between management and employees will be the first step in ensuring asafe return to work. The safe return to work programme also addresses health and safetyprotocols and refresher training on general mine operations. Once operations are in aposition to start up safely, production ramp-up will begin. It is expected that steady stateproduction will be achieved in the last quarter 2014.
The agreement Limpopo to host InternationalCo-operatives Day celebrationsThe newly-established Department ofSmall Business Development (DSBD)together with the Limpopo EconomicDevelopment, Environment and Tourism(LEDET) and the South African NationalApex Co-operative (SANACO) will hostthe International Co-operatives Daycelebrations under the theme Co-operative Enterprises AchieveSustainable Development for All.

According to Zulu, thisyear’s theme seeks to encourage thegrowth and the establishment of co-operatives all over the world, includingencouraging communities, governmentand individuals to recognise the crucialrole co-operatives can play to achieve theMillennium Development Goals as far asjob creation and poverty alleviation areconcerned.
LEDET MEC Mr Seaparo Sekoatisays the more than 1 500 co-operativesmembers from 700 co-operative
enterprises who will descend onPolokwane from all over the country tocelebrate the International Co-operativesDay will provide a perfect platform for thecountry to take stock of the road that hasbeen travelled in an effort to put co-operatives in the mainstream of thecountry’s economy.
“The celebrations will also highlightthe positive role co-operatives play inproviding a network of opportunitiesamong themselves and between themand members of the public aspiring to beco-operatives.
With the support of the SmallEnterprise Development Agency (Seda)we are glad that the seventy five co-operatives from Limpopo and otherprovinces of the country who will be givena chance to exhibit their products andservices during the celebrations willprominently showcase on a nationalplatform what the country and in particularthe Limpopo province has done toenhance the capacity, competitivenessand sustainability of our co-operatives,”says MEC Sekoati.

On Tuesday this week the ANC in Limpopoannounced that they are recalling fourmayors. Greater Tubatse Municipality’smayor, Cllr. Josias Nkosi Mahlake was oneof those who were recalled. Some mediareports this week stated they will beredeployed. One of the reasons given for thechange is the province’s target to improveservice delivery.Platinum Gazette asked readers whetherthey heard about the mayors’ recall andwhat they think about the situation.
Mr Lawrence Kgoete said: “Yes, I heardabout it. I think it is the right time to changemayors. Look at this town! Things are notgoing well – our roads have potholes allover! I think the new mayor when appointedwill make a difference. He or she must learnfrom the previous one’s mistakes”.
Mr Aaron Maredi said: “Yes, I’ve heard thatthey recalled him. This will not make adifference to service delivery. Changingmayors is not the solution. There are manythings happening in town and they are nottaking any steps to stop it. Eg. crime at therobots to the KFC. Every week you hearabout stock being taken from the back of abakkie. The mayors just occupy a position,but don’t make any difference”.
Mr Council Moyo said: “Ja, ja, ja I’ve heardabout that. The new mayor will have to seethat things get done. There are a lot ofpotholes in this town. Eish! It’s a disaster!”
Mr Samuel Dlamini said: “Ja, I saw on thenews that he is gone. If the new one bringschange for the better, he or she will do wellas mayor. They must learn from this one’smistakes”.
Mnr. Pieter Carelse en me. Santie Carelse sê: “Ons het gelees wat daaroor in die mediagesê word. As dit gaan oor dienslewering wat moet verbeter is dit goed dat hy gaan. Dienuwe een moet luister na die mense op straat. Dit is een ding om te kritiseer, maar gee ookkrediet waar dit toekom. Ons munisipaliteit doen eintlik baie goed in ag genome dieuitbreiding wat in die laaste paar jaar hier gebeur het. Ons is nou 14 jaar hier en jy kan nieglo wat het in daardie tyd verander nie. Kyk net hoe vergelyk ons munisipaliteit met dorpesoos Lydenburg”.
Right: Mr Gerald Dikgale said: “No, I am notaware that he has been recalled. It is possiblethat the new one may improve servicedelivery, but this government is very lenient.The government have very good policies, butpeople don’t enforce it. Look here inBurgersfort. For months nothing is being doneabout the robots that are not working downthere at the Mall. People just do nothing aboutit. We also have many potholes”.
Mr Samuel Molobela (also known as DJSammy at Tubatse FM) said: “Yes, I’veheard. It is good. The ousted one was not agood leader. Look at what happened withthe Red Ants coming to destroy hawkershelters. He said that he did not know aboutit. How can that be? The new mayor mustbe available to the people and listen to thecouncillors”.
Mr David Legodi said: “No, I did not know hewas recalled. It will be good if governmentaims to give better service delivery. Lots ofpeople around Burgersfort are strugglingwith jobs, maybe this new mayor can helpwith that”.
Left: Mr Patson Sekgobela said: “No, I’ve notheard. I hope the new one will bring betterservices because he or she was sent to doso. This is a message to all governmentworkers – the ANC is not here to play games,but to deliver the services the people deserve.They’ll recall the new one too if he or she failsto deliver”.

Ms. Nancy Seganye and Mr Martin Mabasa said: “Yes, we’ve heard about it. The new mayorwill do better than the previous one because he or she will learn from this one’s mistakes.That person will pull up his or her socks”.
Mr Rudy Choshane said: “No, I’ve not heardabout it. I don’t think it will make a differenceto get a new mayor. Where there is money,there is crime. The people of Tubatse willsuffer until they die. The leadership chow themoney. I think the ANC must have thenational government and the other partiesmust rule the local government. Maybe it willbe better then”.
Mnr. Bennie Wheeler sê: “Ek dink dis goed.Dalk sal ons paaie beter raak. Ek het niegeweet die vorige ene is weg nie, maar dalksal die nuwe burgemeester sorg vir ‘nskoner dorp. Dalk is nuwe bloed goed.Mense raak te gemaklik”.
Mnr. Tiaan Buitendag en Me. Nicolene Buitendag sê: “Nee, dit is dieeerste wat ons daarvan hoor. Ons hoop die nuwe een doen iets aandie paaie!”
Mr Peter Masethe said: “Yes, obviously I’ve heardabout it. It is good for the people of Tubatse. Whenyou are mayor you must reveal yourself to the people.This recalled one always sent other people to receivememorandums at protest marches. The peoplewanted him, but he was never available. Perhaps if hemade more time for the people, there would havebeen less protests”.
Mr David Matemane said: “I think it is for political reasonsthat he has been recalled. I heard that they are beingrecalled because of the this new party – the EFF. I hopethe new mayor brings better service delivery. We arelooking forward to that. We need someone skilled whocan make people deliver regardless of all the politics”.
Left: Mr SiyabongaVayeke said: “Iheard somestories about it. Ithink sometimes achange is good.Knowing all thedifficulties theprevious oneexperienced, achange may begood”.
Right: Mr DoctorMalepe said: “No,I’ve not heardabout it. It is soimportant to giveservice delivery.We are in need ofit. The new mayorwill have toperform”.
