Chiefs won’t get carried away – Khune

iol spt aug21 Khune-Chiefs

Johannesburg – Fresh off a 6-0 thrashing of AmaZulu, Kaizer Chiefs captain Itumeleng Khune is confident their fast start to the season will not go to their heads.

Amakhosi host rivals Mamelodi Sundowns in the second round of Premiership matches at Soccer City on Wednesday night.

“We don’t want to get carried away,” Khune said.

“The league is a marathon, we have all the games to play and the 6-0 is not something that has gone to our heads.”

Sundowns ran out 4-1 victors over Chiefs in Pretoria in the MTN8 cup quarterfinals a couple of weeks ago.

“For us we’re going to have to triple our efforts, because they’re going to come into this game but not have it easy like they did at Loftus,” Khune said.

“It will be a completely different ball game because, come end of the season, we want to finish in a respectable position.

“In terms of points, every game counts and we don’t want to have any regrets at the end of the season.

“We’ve learnt from past experiences that we have to pick up points early.”

Khune, 25, said their home ground advantage would be vital in overcoming the Brazilians.

“We obviously want to do well in front of our home crowd, and we hope our supporters come in their numbers because we need them.

Marikana should be a catalyst for change

IOL pic aug17 lonmin violence aug 17

Events at Marikana last week, where protesting mineworkers were mown down by police gunfire, will dominate the headlines for days to come.

The horror and tragedy that unfolded near that dusty koppie outside Rustenburg will be revisited during the judicial inquiry announced by President Jacob Zuma and relived in the nightmares of the survivors, their families and friends.

A bloody stain on SA’s post-apartheid record, the Marikana massacre, as it will surely come to be known, comes at a huge cost to all of society.

 

We should spend time absorbing the details of a plan presented by Minister Trevor Manuel to President Jacob Zuma in Parliament. The National Development Plan is the country’s first long-term blueprint for mapping our collective way out of the fix we’re in.

It’s the result of more than two years of work and aims at taking the country to a future where none of us suffer from, or are threatened by, massive inequality, poverty and unemployment.

Dewani witness: I was drunk

NEWS Leave a comment

xolile mngeni aug 16

Cape Town – A witness in the Anni Dewani murder case was drunk the night he drove with her convicted killer and an alleged accomplice to Gugulethu, the Western Cape High Court heard on Tuesday.

The witness said he had been drinking with a friend before he arrived at the Khayelitsha tavern Sop’s Place around 9.30pm on November 13, 2010. At the tavern, he drank about 375ml of whisky.

He told the court even though he could drive, walk, and see he thought it better not to do so.

He said the driving was done by Mziwamadoda Qwabe, who has been jailed for 25 years after pleading guilty to his part in the murder.

The witness, who cannot be named in terms of a court ruling, was testifying in the trial of Xolile Mngeni, who allegedly pulled the trigger.

Mngeni, who is suffering from a malignant brain tumour, was declared fit to stand trial last week.

The witness testified on Monday that he drove with the two in his car, as well as a male friend and two women, to Gugulethu, the same place the Dewani’s shuttle was hijacked. Anni Dewani was shot in an apparent car hijacking while on honeymoon with her husband Shrien in Cape Town in November 2010.

Mngeni has pleaded not guilty to charges of kidnapping, robbery with aggravating circumstances, murder, and the illegal possession of a firearm and ammunition.

Matthews Dayimani, his lawyer, asked the witness why his testimony mentioned six people in the car, when his statement to police only made mention of five.

“I remember saying we were six,” the witness said.

Twist in coach’s sex abuse trial

NEWS Leave a comment

gavel_may 14

Durban – A sports coach from Durban, who was training an Olympic team in Europe, is soon to be tried there for having sex with a 13-year-old trainee, also from Durban.

Charges were put to the suspect in a European court on Monday after his arrest in May, soon after the suspect appeared in a Durban regional court on sex allegations involving the same girl.

The 41-year-old coach was granted R80 000 bail in Durban on May 9, and conditionally allowed to return to his family in the European country where he was – until his arrest there on May 18 – coaching one of that country’s Olympic teams for the Games in London.

He has been in custody there since, his Olympic hopes thwarted, and remains behind bars.

Details, such as the country involved and the sport code, are being withheld by the Daily News at this stage to protect identities.

The alleged victim’s father said in Durban on Monday that he and his family were ready and had set up a legal support team in that country.

“We are waiting for instructions from authorities there; from there we will decide as a family what the next step will be [in terms of statements and appearances],” he said.

He said that the family was pleased action was being taken, but was battling with a lot of stress.

“My daughter is undergoing a lot of rehab work and counselling, but she has been severely damaged by this man. It will take a long time for her to recover.

“She’s taking a lot of strain but she’s a strong girl.”

We do not agree nor deny any existence of the movement and what we heard is,The Illuminati is there in full operation.

How they lure people to join them?

“They spot for a talent and potential. If they find what they want on you as individual, they support you through and through with out you knowing.

You will see your brand suddenly growing fast and getting endorsements left,right and centre.

Maybe let’s say after three years down the line, when you are big and world renowned superstar, you will be invited for an event where only A-list celebrities who are messiah of Devil be in attendance. 

So someone will be sent to you to explain actually who you are and serving. He/she will remind you about your all achievements and explain if you do not abide the rules, you will be torched,framed, lose everything you have and eventually die”

Petrol price may climb 78c a litre

NEWS Leave a comment

sa petrol

Motorists may face a petrol price hike of more than 78c a litre next month, after a 22c a litre increase this month. Supply issues and improved consumer confidence in the US have driven up oil prices, pushing the benchmark Brent blend from $103 (R858) a barrel at the end of last month to $113.95 yesterday. The petrol price is adjusted each month based on movements in a basket of international oil products. An indication of the extent of the increase is that the average underrecovery on local fuel is running at just over 78c. The underrecovery on Friday was over R1. The underrecovery has been moving up so the average could rise if the supply issues are not resolved. Oil prices, which moderated last month on concerns about growth and weak demand for oil, have been supported over the past few weeks by expectations of shrinking North Sea production. Reuters said production would fall about 17 percent in September due to maintenance. To counter the impact, US President Barack Obama spoke of releasing emergency oil reserves. But Reuters said he “faces stiff resistance”. – Ethel Hazelhurst
