Jacob Zuma’s Capture Site can create enormous growth opportunities in the tourism sector


Picture: Jacob Zuma’s Capture Site in Groot Marico

By OBAKENG MAJE

9 October 2026 – The Groot Marico Heritage Site (The Historical Capture Site) in Groot Marico, North West province, is an official heritage monument commemorating the exact location where former president, Jacob Zuma and 45 other Umkhonto we Sizwe (MK) recruits were intercepted and arrested by apartheid security police in June 1963, while attempting to flee into exile. The monument was formally opened by Zuma in October 2017 and the site features a R1.8 million monument and statue.

Some residents urge the North West Department of Arts, Culture, Sport and Recreation to make the site more viable to lure tourists to their area. They said the area experiences a high rate of unemployment and tourism sites might bring more job opportunities.

One of the community leaders, Michael Khethele said: “Groot Marico has a rich history and that might assist in creating job opportunities. The Capture Site needs to be taken care of so that it can attract more tourists across the world. There is a high rate of unemployment in our area, but I think tourism sites can be used as a tool to create more job opportunities, especially for young people.”

Another resident, Tshegofatso Mantsi said: “Tourism is vital for the success of many economies. Tourism boosts the revenue of the economy, creates thousands of jobs, develops infrastructure of an area and plants a sense of cultural exchange between foreigners and citizens.

“We need sites, where the youth can acquire various skills that will benefit them in the future. I think tourism sites need to lead to economic freedom, where job opportunities are being created.”

 The North West MEC for Economic Development, Environment, Conservation and Tourism, Bitsa Lenkopane said they will work with their sister department to ensure that the Zuma Capture Site is well-marketed.

Meanwhile, Jacob Zuma is a prominent politician who served as the fourth President of South Africa from 2009 until his resignation in 2018. He currently serves as the leader of the uMkhonto weSizwe (MK) Party. According to historical records from South African History Online, Zuma was an anti-apartheid activist, who joined the African National Congress (ANC) in 1959 and its armed wing, uMkhonto we Sizwe, in 1962.

He was imprisoned on Robben Island for 10 years alongside Nelson Mandela. Zuma served as the Deputy President of South Africa from 1999 to 2005 under Thabo Mbeki.

He later led the country as President for nearly two terms. However, his tenure as president was marked by significant political and legal controversies, including allegations of “state capture” and the misuse of public funds for upgrades to his private residence in Nkandla.

Zuma resigned under pressure from the ANC in February 2018.

In late 2023, Zuma broke away from the ANC to support and lead the newly formed MK Party. He was subsequently expelled from the ANC in July 2024.

North West ready to administer 2026 NSC examinations


Picture: Grade 12 learners during NSC examinations

By KEDIBONE MOLAETSI

9 October 2026 – The North West Department of Education is pleased to announce that the province is ready to administer the Grade 12 National Senior Certificate (NSC) examinations. The department said examinations will commence on 13 October 2026 with the practical component of Computer Applications Technology (CAT) Paper 1.

The acting North West MEC for Education, Kenetswe Mosenogi said a total of 52 200 candidates have registered for the NSC examinations with 3760 part-time learners and 48 440 full-time learners. Mosenogi said this represents an increase of 3341 candidates compared with the 2025 enrolment.

“Furthermore, the department has prepared examination centers, deployed personnel and coordinated other essential arrangements to support the examinations with smooth and credible administration.

“The North West Department of Education wishes all candidates well as they prepare to write their final examinations and encourages them to remain focused, disciplined, and committed throughout the examination period,” she said.

Mosenogi further said she wishes good luck to all learners who will be writing their final examinations. She added that on behalf of the entire department, she wishes good luck to the learners who will be writing their final examinations, especially the Grade 12 learners.

“As the department, we have supported learners throughout the year with various interventions like autumn, winter, spring and incubation camps and many other extra classes. Many schools will be hosting incubation camps across the province and we request learners to obey their teachers.

“We do not want to get reports wherein learners violate their Code of conduct during the camps. I am confident that this 2026 cohort will take us to a higher position away from our usual position four. Once more our province is ready for the final examinations,” said Mosenogi.

She said the department further calls on parents, teachers, communities, and all education stakeholders to support learners during this important period and create an environment conducive to studying and academic success.

Vredefort Dome is the world’s largest and second oldest verified meteorite impact site


By REGINALD KANYANE

9 October 2026 – The Vredefort Dome is the world’s largest and second oldest verified meteorite impact site, located in Potchefstroom, North West, Parys in Free State and Gauteng Province. According to information, the Vredefort Dome was formed approximately 2 billion years ago when an asteroid roughly 10 to 15km in diameter struck earth.

This UNESCO World Heritage Site offers a dramatic landscape of rugged hills, unique geological formations, and excellent outdoor adventure opportunities and it is just a two-hour drive from Johannesburg. While the original crater ring has eroded over billions of years, the remaining “dome” is a spectacular 70 km wide network of overturned volcanic hills created by the rebounding earth after impact.

A qualified tourist guide, Bahedile Dichaba said it was designated as a World Heritage Site in 2005, Vredefort Dome serves as a crucial window into the planet’s geological evolution and the profound impact of asteroid collisions. Dichaba said their primarily white rocks found at Vredefort Dome are typically the result of target rocks being pulverized, shock-melted, or chemically altered by the extreme heat and pressure of a meteorite impact.

“The intense heat and pressure created rare geological features, including pseudotachylite (melted rock veins) and shatter cones (distinctive cone-shaped fracture patterns in the bedrock). So, there are various activities offered there such as excellent white-water rafting, kayaking, and target fishing for yellowfish.

“To truly see the impact scars, it is highly recommended to book a guided geological tour. Local experts will show you hidden shatter cones and rock carvings that are easy to miss on your own. The rugged, hilly terrain provides highly technical and scenic trails for outdoor athletes such as mountain biking and trail running,” he said.

Dichaba further said one can make it an easy weekend escape or a comprehensive day trip. He added that the best time to visit is during the dry winter months (May to September), which are ideal for hiking and outdoor exploring, while summer (November to February) is peak time for river-based water sports.

Meanwhile, all the classical related characteristics of a large astrobleme are found in the property. This multi-ring structure formed by the impact scar illustrates the effect of shock metamorphism of rocks, transformation of crystal structures and shatter cones of the immense force created by the impact.

Vredefort Dome is the oldest, largest, and most deeply eroded complex meteorite impact structure in the world. It is the site of the world’s greatest single, known energy release event.

It contains high quality and accessible geological (outcrop) sites which demonstrate a range of geological evidence of a complex meteorite impact structure. The rural and natural landscapes of the serial property help portray the magnitude of the ring structures resulting from the impact. The serial nomination is considered to be a representative sample of a complex meteorite impact structure.

ANC condemns Sello Lemonka Gemba amid rape and killing utterances


By OBAKENG MAJE

9 October 2026 – The African National Congress (ANC) has condemned in the strongest possible terms the alleged social media remarks attributed to Sello Lemonka Gemba from Pampierstad in Northern Cape, who is purported to be an ANC supporter, in which he is alleged to have called for the rape and killing of March and March leader, Jacinta Ngobese-Zuma. Gemba subsequently indicated that he stood by those remarks.

The ANC national spokesperson, Hlengiwe Bhengu said if accurately attributed to him, such utterances are vile, reprehensible and wholly incompatible with the values, traditions and political culture of the ANC. Bhengu said there can never be political, personal or ideological justification for incitement to rape, murder or any form of violence against another person.

“The ANC rejects any attempt by individuals to associate such conduct with our movement or to use purported support for the ANC as a shield for violent, misogynistic or criminal rhetoric. Whatever disagreements, disputes or differences may exist between Sello Lemonka Gemba and Jacinta Ngobese-Zuma, these can never justify or excuse language that allegedly calls for her rape or killing.

“No disagreement gives anyone licence to threaten the life, bodily integrity or dignity of another person. Such alleged conduct is particularly reprehensible in a society confronting the persistent scourge of Gender-Based Violence and Femicide (GBVF)and it must be rejected without qualification,” she said.

Bhengu further said the ANC calls upon the appropriate law-enforcement authorities to investigate these allegations without fear, favour or prejudice and where the evidence establishes criminal conduct, to act decisively in accordance with the law. She added that social media is not a lawless space, and freedom of expression cannot be distorted into a licence to threaten, intimidate or incite violence.

“Should it be established that the individual concerned is an ANC member, the organisation’s internal processes must equally take their course.

“The ANC distances itself unequivocally from the alleged remarks and calls upon all its members and supporters to uphold the values of human dignity, non-sexism, non-violence and respect for the rule of law,” said Bhengu.

Meanwhile, the South African Human Rights Commission (SAHRC) commissioner, Nomahlubi Khwinana said they condemn in the strongest terms a message allegedly posted on social media calling for the gang-rape of Ngobese-Zuma. Khwinana said South Africa is a constitutional democracy that guarantees freedom of expression and peaceful assembly.

“The constitution encourages people to hold diverse political ideologies and beliefs within its bounds and under applicable legislation. Robust, uncomfortable, and even offensive speech is constitutionally protected.

“Threatening or calling for the rape of someone is a criminal offence and may constitute hate speech. Globally and in South Africa, women and non-binary activists and journalists are routinely

harassed and threatened with physical, sexual and other forms of violence,” she said.

Khwinana said this trend needs to stop. She said women and other vulnerable groups should be free to exercise their political rights and enjoy all fundamental rights.

“South Africa is globally recognised for having some of the highest rates of gender-based violence (GBV) and intimate partner violence. We live in a country where around 43 000 cases of rape are reported each year. The country has a femicide rate several times higher than the global average.

“The public messages allegedly made against Ngobese-Zuma demonstrate the brazenness of gendered violence. Social

media platforms are responsible for filtering the messages posted on their platforms and ensuring that they are not spaces that amplify hate speech and gendered violence.

“This is one of the central messages in the Commission’s recently published policy brief, Human Rights and Information Integrity in disinformation, platform accountability and democratic resilience in South Africa,” said Khwinana.

She said the commission calls on law enforcement agencies to immediately identify and apprehend the perpetrator, so he faces the full force of the law. Khwinana said the commission also calls on the executive to ensure that the prevention and combating of hate crimes and hate speech Act of 2023, a powerful deterrent against

such incidents, come into force promptly.

Iconic Taung Dam holds deep cultural, historical and spiritual significance


By OBAKENG MAJE

9 October 2026 – Most people believe that Taung Dam can be one of the best heritage sites in Taung. As many people flocked to the area for leisure, especially during festive season, some use it for their spiritual journey.

Residents at large believe that the area holds deep cultural, historical and spiritual significance.  

Built in 1993 during the Bophuthatswana government, Taung Dam construction submerged the ancestral graves of the local Kolong and Dikgageng communities without their consent. The site already features a government unveiled memorial stone erected in 2007 to honour those ancestral spirits.    

According to Sabinet Gateway Journal, Taung Dam was constructed to boast commercial farming and recreation. The construction of the Taung Dam involved extensive consultation with the local community and held a great potential for development of the region.

“Taung Dam was one of the nominations for the Mmabatho Informal Branch’s Award for Excellence in Civil Engineering. It was built by the Bophuthatswana Department of Water Affairs, after extensive community consultation with a view to deriving the optimum benefit from the resources available to provide maximum economic stimulation for the Taung District.

“The method of construction of the dam, using the relatively new concept of rollcrete combined the economic advantages of the mass concrete gravity configuration most favoured by the topography of the site and those derived from the mass earthworks style placing techniques associated with rollcrete.”

Taung Dam is the tallest of only five rollcrete dams in Southern Africa. It represents the successful combination of state-of-the-art technology with community inspired and sanctioned development.

“Taung Dam was built as a project for the people. A detailed District Development Plan (DDP) was initiated by the Bophuthatswana Department of Water Affairs for the Taung District.

The project chosen by the Mmabatho Informal Branch as its 1993 regional award winner is the Bophuthatswana Rural Water Supply Programme.

“This project has also been nominated for SAlCE’s National Award for Outstanding Civil Engineering Achievement. The DDP was extensively based on community consultation and as a result was fully supported and sanctioned by community leaders in the District,” the article said.

According to the journal, the purpose of the DDP was to ascertain the true economic aspirations of the residents in the District. The site can have major economic activity that can be successfully sustained in the Taung District given its relative remoteness from any substantial industrial resources or infrastructure, is commercial farming.

“The construction of the Taung Dam with its 60 million m3 reservoir, was the only way in which adequate water resources could be harnessed to cater for the irrigation requirements for the successful and prosperous development of the Taung farming community and hence ensure the associated socioeconomic advancement of the District as a whole.

“Construction of the dam commenced at the end of 1990. Shortly after the contract commenced it was decided after consultation with the local community and the Department of Public Works, to construct a road bridge across the top of the dam to improve general access in the area.”

The dam was essentially completed in 1993, at a final cost of approximately R41 million.

A qualified Tourist Guide, Bahedile Dichaba said there was a village in that area called Dikgageng before the establishment of the iconic bridge. Dichaba said the Bophuthatswana government saw it fit to construct a bridge in order to deal with the density of water that was overflowing.

“This resulted in what we call damming, and various households were forced to relocate to areas such as Manthe, Ranstad, Kolong, Cokonyane and other neighbouring areas. The construction of the bridge commenced back in 1983, which I stand to be corrected.

“However, in 1987, the Taung area experienced flooding which was catastrophic. So, under the bridge, there are wrecks of the yellow fleet. There are graveyards submerged and on the brighter note, there is an island on the other side of Taung Dam,” he said.

Dichaba further said Taung Dam can be used as a tourism site for water borne activities, such as kayaking, canoeing, stand-up paddleboarding (SUP), surfing, windsurfing, rafting, kloofing, kitesurfing and parasailing. He added that it can also be used for underwater activities such as snorkeling, scuba diving and freediving, including spearfishing.

“Other than that, it can be used as water parks and play,” concluded Dichaba.
