IT’S easy come, easy go with Teko Modise’s millions. He spends a lot, but then he earns a lot.

And sometimes he ends up in a tight spot, with more cash going out than what’s coming in.

The former Bafana Bafana midfielder is a rich man – with a record of having his assets seized by the repo guys.

Sources close to the star alleged that the repo men collected Teko’s Jeep SRT8.

And this was barely two months after he helped his team to the MTN8 Cup and pocketed a very cool R8 million bonus!

Teko seems to be piling up the silverware with his team. But his off-the-field luck seems to have run out at the moment.

Last week, a source claimed: “Teko arrived late for a training session in a Golf. He explained to coach Pitso Mosimane that he was dealing with people who wanted their Jeep back.

“The coach was pissed off because he’d been advising players to think smart when tempted by nice things that cost them a lot of money.”

Teko might find himself in the money again, as his team is leading the race in the Absa Premier League Championship.

And then he’ll be back in the big spender league.

I WAS telling my friend about some guy who runs a seminar to teach women how to get more money from their boyfriends.

She said: “So, if they’re not prostitutes, why

must they milk men? Why are women still avoiding hard work for their own keep? Why would you expect a man to pay for your hair, lashes, nails, make-up and clothes? Those are things which will all come off in the end!

“Natural beauty is easier, cheaper and less stressful – without weaves, lashes, nails and make-up. Why bother to nag a man for all those things that make you look like a drag artist?”

I have no clue. But hey, she can talk!

Nonetheless, my friend is right when she says
high-maintenance women should stop depending on their men’s wages. Be calm, ladies – and find your own source of income.

Surely, you paid for your own hair before you met him, so why must you expect cash in a relationship?

Is he an ATM and do you reciprocate in a perpetual state of thankfulness?

Darling – are you so pathetic that you can’t date a man without asking him for things to make you appear prettier? Are you dating your man for cash? Are you the kind of woman who salivates when you see his wallet?

Please, don’t tell me you expect imali yomqamelo.

Hun, you’re not a hooker. But when did women become so greedy they have to take extortion lessons?

Ladies – please remember your dignity and stop asking men for your nails, hair and clothes. What you need are worldly possessions in your own name, like a car or a great handbag. And who has sex for a bag?

No sane woman asks her man for cash unless she resembles a camel – hairy and bumpy with large feet. Demanding manicure money is demeaning. I say you deserve the moon and the stars!

A man is not asked for money. Angel, he comes with it. He is it. First, he gives you your own card for shopping and lunch. This is the kind of man who’ll expect you to move in and be his.

A man of this stature doesn’t want you to ask, play tricks or wheedle like a little girl when you want something. You become his wealth.

So stop silly seminars, or asking for eWallet or airtime. Stop dating boys and start dating men who won’t make you fetch. Unless you like being his bitch.

ROLES have been reversed for Lungisani Ndlela, who is making a living as a prison warder in Witbank, in Mpumalanga, these days.

During his prime time as a hot-shot striker for Bafana Bafana, Moroka Swallows, SuperSport United and Mamelodi Sundowns, Lungisani used to be tightly policed by defenders on the pitch.

That was because he possessed a lethal left foot that wreaked havoc in the defence as he set to bang in goals in almost every match.

But after his fall from the top, Lungisani has turned to guarding some dangerous people in prison.

Absa Premiership

Score: Mamelodi Sundowns 0-0 Golden Arrows

Date: 19 February 2016

Venue: Lucas Moripe Stadium

Mamelodi Sundowns were left frustrated, after being held to a 0-0 draw by a stubborn Golden Arrows on Saturday.

The encounter got off to a slow start, although Sundowns started asserting their dominance after 10 minutes.

Clinton Larsen’s side were quite content to let the Brazilians have the ball, while they attacked on the counter with Mahachi, Ramagalela and Hotto.

Sundowns went close in the 38th minute when Teko Modise’s free-kick from 25-yards out sailed just wide of the Mbaeva’s upright.

The home side should have gone ahead two minutes later when Wayne Arendse’s long ball found Khama Billiat, who placed his effort wide of the upright with Mbaeva to beat.

The Local Government Communicators Forum (LGCF) has once again encouraged communicators in municipalities to heighten the usage of social media networks such as Facebook and Twitter, and improve municipal websites to contribute to the enhancement of the image of municipalities in the province and promote interaction with communities.

This came out at the last session of the LGCF for the financial year 2015/16 held at Rustenburg. 

The Chairperson of the LGCF and the Director responsible for Media and Communication in the department of Local Government and Human Settlements, Ben Bole said young people who constitute majority of the Bokone Bophirima population, are active users of these platforms and as municipal communicators this is the space they need to occupy to communicate good government stories.

Ben Bole said: “The current day and age, government needs to be more open and transparent about its working and these social networking sites can help in evolving a more participatory government.” 

Bole further said that as institution that ignores usage of social media networks and the power that is poses, they are not taking communication serious.

“Social media has taken centre stage and most of the organisations depend on them to communicate, engage and serve communities. Social media can mobilise social campaigns, enable communications and discussions on public or departmental forum, spread awareness, provide instant news and information. In so doing they are making our lives easy as communicators,” he said.

Bole said few municipalities in the province are still not active users of these important medium and the forum resolved to support all municipalities to heighten their participation in that space.

The Mayor of Moses Kotane Local Municipality, Fetsang Mokati has officially opened a 1.8 km Lerome South Internal Road as part of the provincial Setsokotsane programme.

Addressing community members at the officially opening of the road, Mayor Mokati said the leadership listened to community needs and priorities that were raised during IDP public consultations. 

“During public consultations, our residents often complained of not knowing about projects in their villages. Following my presentation of budget speech for this financial year, we have been doing sod-turning ceremonies of service delivery projects to introduce projects to communities and tribal authorities. 

“Today we are handing over the 1.8km paved internal road.  Should there be any dissatisfaction of communities about any matter, let it not be on this road. Take care of this road, engage tribal authority and municipality to resolve any issues that you may have,” Mokati said.

She said it was not her wish that people of Lerome would burn the tyres on this road.

“This is your road. Have ownership to protect and preserve it. If you protect it, it will give us a chance to go to other villages of MKLM for service delivery provision,” she said.

Mokati further urged community members to be part of Setsokotsane service delivery outreaches to access government services within their reach.

She further urged them to register on the IEC voter’s roll as their registration will increase the municipal equitable share allocation from the National Treasury.

Setsokotsane is currently in Moses Kotane Local Municipality until February 28.

The R7.7 million project which started in April 2015 as phase two, was completed within a projected time.

Twenty five people were employed.

The municipality allocated R72.3 million for construction of internal roads and storm water projects for various villages as one of the key priorities of this financial year.
