Orbit College FC coach Pogisho Makhoye’s remarks over Monnapula Saleng cause an uproar


By OBAKENG MAJE

10 September 2025- The Orbit College FC management has apologised to Orlando Pirates FC loaned player, Monapula Saleng, fans, supporters and the football fraternity over his comments. This comes after Orbit College FC head coach, Pogisho Makhoye expressed disappointment regarding Saleng’s performance, stating that the player’s presence negatively impacts the team’s dynamic, causing other players to rely on him and reduce their own effort.

Makhoye alleged that he spoke to Saleng, urging him to “up his game” and lead the team as a star player. However, warned that the team might have to rethink Saleng’s role if he doesn’t step up.

On 9 September 2025, the Orbit College FC posted an apology on its official Facebook page regarding the matter. The message reads” “We at Orbit College FC wish to address recent comments made by our coach regarding the performance of our player, Monnapule Saleng. We recognize that these remarks, shared last week on social media, have caused concern and disappointment among our fans, stakeholders, and the wider football community.

“We sincerely apologize for the unintended distress caused by these comments. Our intention is always to foster a positive and supportive environment for all our players, who work tirelessly to represent our club with pride and dedication.”

The message continues that Saleng is a valued member of their team, and they deeply regret any impression that his contributions have been undervalued or unfairly criticized. The club said it is committed to support its players’ growth and well-being both on and off the field.

“We acknowledge that public statements must be made with care to avoid misinterpretation or harm. Moving forward, we will take steps to ensure more thoughtful communication and continue to focus on unity, respect, and constructive dialogue within our team.

“We are in discussions with all involved parties, including Saleng, to address this matter internally and ensure that our shared goals remain at the forefront. We ask for your understanding and continued support as we work to strengthen our team and uphold the values that define Orbit College FC.

“Thank you for standing by us, and we look forward to demonstrating our commitment through our actions on and off the pitch,” said Management.

Who will emerge as ANC provincial chairperson?


Picture: North West Premier, Lazarus Mokgosi and ANC provincial chairperson, Nono Maloyi

By OBAKENG MAJE

10 Septmeber 2025- Even though ANC Provincial Elective Conference in North West is still far, some ANC members have already started to debate on who they will bet their money on. The highly and fiercely contestation between the North West Premier, Lazarus Mokgosi and ANC provincial chairperson, Nono Maloyi is expected.

Mokgosi, who is the current ANC deputy chairperson in North West, is anticipating toppling Maloyi who seems to be in the driving seat for now from his position as the ANC provincial chairperson. According to the insider within the ANC, there are two factions within the party.

“Maloyi has the likes of former ANCYL president, Collen Maine, who is very influential in his camp. Truly speaking, Maloyi does not have numbers, but Maine has. Now, Maloyi has roped in SANCO leader, James Gadinabokao who seems to have support of SANCO members across the province.

“You will remember that Gadinabokao was outspoken against Maloyi’s alleged corrupt activities at some point. Now, he has turned him into his lackey. But, what I can tell you is that, there is a bad blood between Maine and Gadinabokao, so that deepens division within the camp.”    

He said: “On the other hand, Mokgosi is working with ANCYL and ANCWL structures in the province. He also has support of ANC alliances, so, he might emerge as the provincial chairperson come elective conference. However, he must have a solid strategy. Mokgosi seems to be weaker in terms of taking unpopular decisions and that might work against him.”

The ANC provincial spokesperson, Tumelo Maruping said the party in the province has not yet designed a roadmap for the provincial elective conference. Maruping said the provincial elective conference is too far to even talk about it.

“However, we are busy preparing for regional elective conferences for Ngaka Modiri Molema, Dr Kenneth Kaunda and Dr Ruth Segomotsi Mompati regions. These regional elective conferences are scheduled to take place before December 2025.

“We understand that our members might be eager, but they should maintain high moral of discipline at all times. Remember, there should be a roadmap, where we will highlight when branch audit will commence and others,” he said.

South African National Civic Organisation (SANCO) spokesperson in North West, Mzukisi Jam said: “We are still in support of Mokgosi to contest for the provincial chairpersonship position on the basis that he is one of the few people who seems to be more concerned about the social welfare of the ordinary people in North West.

“To be honest, we have not seen any progress in terms of service delivery under the current ANC leadership. However, the only progress that we have seen from various MECs is looting.”

Jam said they have brought this matter to the North West Premier, Lazarus Mokgosi’s attention and they believe he will address it. He said it seems the MECs are in a serious competition in who will loot more than others.

“But as for service delivery issue, we do not see much. Typical example, healthcare centres under the North West Department of Health has become a slaughter house, where people die lie flies.

“In Dr Kenneth Kaunda District, there was an old man who died on the queue, while waiting to be assisted. However, until today, there is no outcome of the investigation report and no one was held accountable,” said Jam.

He further said this is not the only incident. Jam added that the roads across the province are in shambles and potholes have now turned into bathtubs.

“Where is the North West MEC for Public Works and Roads, Elizabeth Mokua? She is missing in action. Look at the infrastructure at Public Works and Roads, including corruption allegations.

“Go and look at the state of the municipalities across the province. They have all collapsed and that was exposed by the Portfolio Committee on Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs (COGTA) during its recent visit. We are not being personal, but those who are in charge are just enriching themselves unjustifiably,” he said.

Meanwhile, the North West University (NWU) political analyst, Prof Andre Duvenhage said: “Well, if I look at the structures, influence and history, I believe that ANC provincial chairperson, Nono Maloyi is more likely to emerge as the winner.

“However, I believe there are always the divisions within the party in the province. This division is mostly aligned with the national divisions. I also understand that Maloyi is aligned to the ANC Deputy Preisdent, Paul Mashatile’s faction.”

Duvenhage said he will regard Maloyi as the most likely person to ascend to the throne.

Bafana Bafana’s road to the World Cup clearer


Picture: Bafana Bafana players

By REGINALD KANYANE  

10 September 2025- Bafana Bafana were held to a 1-1 draw by Nigeria in a tense FIFA World Cup qualifier played at the Free State Stadium on Tuesday night. It was billed as an epic showdown between the two long-time adversaries and it certainly lived up to expectations with the two teams throwing everything they had at each other for the full 90 minutes, to the delight of the passionate fans in the stands.

Coach Hugo Broos’ charges were the first to put their name on the stadium scoreboard after Nigeria’s William Troost-Ekong beat his own goalkeeper to put the home side in the lead in the 25th minute. Nigeria equalised on the stroke of halftime through Calvin Bassey just before the break.

Television replays later showed that Bassey did not head the ball and actually used his hand to guide it past South African goalkeeper Ronwen Williams and into the back of the net. The match officials did not spot the handball and the goal stood.

The two teams continued to throw everything they had at each other in the second half, with several flying tackles and physical challenges dominating play. But in the end, the two sides had to settle for a share of the spoils.

The result keeps Bafana Bafana at the top of Group C with 17 points. The final round of qualifiers will be played next month, with Bafana Bafana very much in control of their own destiny.

“The performance of my team today, in this game, makes me enormously proud. It may not have been good football at times, not at all, but the way they fought for every ball was nice to see for a coach,” Broos said.

Bafana Bafana return to Johannesburg on Wednesday.

ANCYL member killed in hail of bullets

By OBAKENG MAJE

10 September 2025- The ANCYL Provincial Chairperson and North West MEC for Community Safety and Transport Management, Wessels Morweng have applauded the police in the province for the swift response and eventual arrest of suspects in the murder of the ANC Youth League member. This comes after the shooting incident involving the Youth League members, who were traveling from Limpopo to Kimberly in the Northern Cape to attend the League’s National General Council (NGC) that will be held later this week.

Morweng said the preliminary investigation indicates that the deceased, Nkateko Mbhoma and six others were victims of the circumstances and not necessarily targeted when their vehicle was being shot at. He further said whilst six others were found to have been physically unharmed, one was unfortunately found to have died.

“The police were alerted of what was initially reported as a suspected hijacking attempt on the morning of Tuesday. Responding swiftly, the  Leeudoringstad SAPS members rushed to the scene of the reported incident. The travelling members of the ANC Youth League reported that their vehicle came under a hail of bullets and described the vehicle from which the shots came.

“Following the lead, the police found the described vehicle with two people  involved in an accident. They explained to the police that they are working for a private security company contracted to state owned company, Transnet and were chasing people who were stealing cables,” he said.

Morweng further said they further described the vehicle they were pursuing. He added that the two were arrested and police further followed the lead for the described vehicle which they later found with five men.

“They had the suspected stolen cables and admitted that they were being pursued by a security vehicle. They were also promptly arrested.  I would like to laud the speedy response of the police under the stewardship of acting North West Police Commissioner, Major General Patrick Asaneng.

“We could not be prouder of our men and women in blue. We extend our profound thanks to the police and Asaneng. We also take this opportunity to extend our deepest condolences to the family of the deceased and his political home the ANC. We are equally wishing speedy emotional recovery to those who were travelling with the deceased,” he said.

McCarthy happy to don Kaizer Chiefs FC jersey


Picture: Kaizer Chiefs FC defender, Aden McCarthy

By OBAKENG MAJE

9 September 2025- Kaizer Chiefs FC development product, Aden McCarthy, made his senior Amakhosi debut on Saturday in the Club’s 1-1 draw away to Sekhukhune United in Polokwane, following in the footsteps of his father, Fabian, who was a Chiefs player between 2002 and 2008. Aden and his father also became the sixth different father-son duo to have played for the Glamour Boys.

They join the Amakhosi Chairman, Dr. Kaizer Motaung and his son, the Club’s Sporting Director, Kaizer Motaung Jr., as well as Chiefs legend, Doctor Khumalo and his late father, Eliakim Khumalo, and the late former defender Siphiwe Mkhonza and his father, Joseph Mkhonza. The fifth pairing was another former Chiefs defender, Morgan Gould, a league winner with Amakhosi whose father Ace ‘Goodenough’ Nkomo and former Chiefs striker, Patrick Mayo and his son, Khanyisile Mayo also wore the Gold & Black.

Reflecting on his son’s debut, McCarthy Sr., who featured in 152 games for Chiefs, beamed, “It was a very proud and also emotional moment. If only my late father could have seen Aden make his Kaizer Chiefs debut. For myself and my wife Melissa and extended family, we are very proud of Aden.”

Fabian, who had a trophy-laden career at Chiefs, was further pleased to have joined the illustrious grouping, “I am happy to be part of the father-son legacy at Kaizer Chiefs. Thank you for the opportunity and all the best to Aden,” he said.

McCarthy Jr, who was born on 4 December 2003 and hails from Vryburg, two days before his father featured in Chiefs 2003/04 Coca Cola Cup Final win over Platinum Stars, added that he has been a Chiefs fan since birth.

Aden spoke of his delight at getting to make his first team debut, revealing, “I was born into the Kaizer Chiefs colours. My dad was still playing for them at the time. Making my debut for Kaizer Chiefs was a dream of mine since I was a small boy, so it was a big accomplishment to make it come true. As a young player, I just gave my best and I knew the chance would come when the timing was right and I am happy the coach gave me the opportunity to showcase my talent.”

On the history of following his father into the Chiefs first team, he said, “Being the fifth father son combination to play for Kaizer Chiefs is crazy to think about, but honestly, it’s a big honour for me and my family.”

For his family, he had special praise: “I need to give credit to my mother. People will post about my father because of our football link, but my mother has been the backbone for us,” he states.
