Rand West City — After many talks, and
community and council meetings, Randfontein
and Westonaria have officially merged as the
first step in establishing the West Rand Metropolitan Municipality.
The two towns combined will now be
called the Rand West City Local Municipality (RWCLM), which is a category B local municipality. The merger took effect on
3 August, the date of the local government
elections.
The news of the merger is nothing new as
it was confirmed by Paul Mashatile, Gauteng
MEC of Cooperative Governance and Traditional Affairs and Human Settlements in
February last year.
The merger was also on the cards as part
of the Vision 2016 and Beyond Campaign.
It has been said that Vision 2020 is to include the merging of the Mogale City, Rand
West City and Merafong Road municipalities.
Rand West City now has a total of 35
wards, which 69 councillors will serve. According to Tshidiso Tlharipe from the RWCLM, a new council will convene on 10 August.
The aim of the merger is to support the
global city region initiative, address the
apartheid era’s fragmentation of municipalities, standardise service delivery and support
the millennium development goals.
In terms of the economy, the merger has
been put in place to grow the town's revenue
base.
It is believed that the merger will result
in an increase in the town's gross domestic
product as well as its Human Development
Index. However, what the cost of the merger
will be for the community has yet to be made
clear.
It is further believed that the merger will
improve the town's standing in the investment and financing sector as it is a larger
entity with the ability to raise capital more
easily than a smaller one.
The two towns had issues with service delivery even before the merger, which is said
to address those issues – and has yet to be
proven. Alderman Mpho Nawa, former Executive Mayor of the West Rand District
Municipality said the transition process is
expected to continue for several months after
the official date of the merger, as much work
needs to be done.
The municipality urges stakeholders to
support efforts to merge the two entities.

Randfonteiners in the lions’ den
Randgate — Recently, the Bob and Wendy Nursery School and Aftercare Centre in Randgate received
a visit from an unusual trio. Alicia Marx (pictured), daughter of the owner of the centre is currently
raising three brown lion cubs voluntarily while studying. When the cubs are three or four months of
age they will be returned to the farm where they were born and be sold to private game farm owners.
Alicia came up with the idea to introduce the nursery school pupils to her fluffy friends. The first big
cat they met was Kira, the white lion. After raising Kira successfully, Alicia received three brown lion
cubs to take care of. Two of them are sisters named Macey and Mika (pictured), while the third cub is
called Cruiser. Read the full story online at www.randfonteinherald.co.za.

Roadblock drama as police give chase
The first suspect is a white

The second suspect is a black

Two farm-robbing
suspects identified
Roxy de Villiers
roxydv@caxton.co.za
Westonaria — Two of the seven
suspects that have been on the
run from the Westonaria Police
since they robbed a farm have
been identified.
Police recently managed to obtain enough information to draw
up identikits of the suspects.
The armed robbery took place
on 19 April at approximately
9.50am at a Leeudoorn farm.
Captain Siphiwe Ndlovu, Westonaria Police spokesperson,
said seven unknown suspects arrived at the farm in a single-cab
van, pretending to be electricians.
Ndlovu said they all gained
entry to the house, pulled out
firearms, held the farm employees at gunpoint, and forced them
into the lounge.
The victims were later tied up
with cable ties and allegedly covered with blankets.
"They were ordered to lie
down on the floor and not to
move," Ndlovu said.
The suspects proceeded to
cut the house's safe open with a
grinder and later fled the scene.
The employees managed to
free themselves some time later,
and called their employer to inform him of the incident.
A handgun, ammunition and
an undisclosed amount of money were stolen from the safe.
Should residents have more
information about the suspects,
they can contact Warrant Officer
Ali Motlhale on 082 319 9515.

Randfontein — Chasing illegal immigrants was the name of the game
during a recent roadblock held by the
Randfontein Police in conjunction with
the town’s Traffic Police.
All stations in the West Rand Police
Cluster were present for the massive
roadblock on the R28 between Randfontein and Azaadville.
Home Affairs officials checking foreigners’ papers were included in the
raid. The roadblock formed part of a
Women’s Day crime prevention operation called Operation Basadi.
The Herald ‘s journalist Roxy de Villiers unknowingly drove into the roadblock and underwent the entire search
procedure.
Traffic Police checked for outstanding fines as well as expired licence discs,
and members of the Randfontein Police
searched the boots of motorists’ cars,
as well as their persons, to see whether
they were holding any illegal weapons.
A knife and a makeshift machete were
confiscated from one motorist.
While the Herald journalist was present, two foot chases occurred.
The first consisted of two male taxi
passengers who fled on foot from police into the open veld.
The second comprised another man
running from the police, also into the
open veld.
On both occasions, the men, believed
to be illegal immigrants, outran the police. They made a dash while the officers were checking other people’s documentation, thus gaining a good head
start. Others who were less willing to
run were taken into custody by Home

Affairs. Randfontein Police’s spokesperson, Captain Appel Ernst, said the
illegal immigrants will be held for a period of up to 30 days in police cells, until Home Affairs deports them if their
documents are not in order.
Otherwise, they will be released and
allowed to go their own way.
The exact number of arrests made
as a result of the operation is not yet
known. Operation Basadi was only one
of many operations the cluster plans to
have over the next few days.
These will include visiting liquor
outlets as well as distributors of second-hand goods.

RAND WEST CITY LOCAL MUNICIPALITY
PUBLIC NOTICE
Dear Customer
Historically, there has been a significant gap between the meter reading date and the due for payment within both Westonaria and
Randfontein. The gap between these dates is over 47 days. This
severely impacts the municipality’s ability to pay its bulk creditors like
Eskom and Rand Water.
In April 2014, Westonaria LM correct this gap by adjusting the billing
and payment cycle.
In order to bring all residents of the Rand West City Local Municipality
within the same meter reading and payment cycle, consumers of the
old Randfontein Local Municipality are hereby informed that:
•
•
•
August water and electricity consumption will be for the month
of July 2016 and August 2016.
Consumers will be billed on the 25th August 2016 with the
payment due the 7th September 2016.
Industrial Consumers will be billed on the 7th September 2016
with the payment due on the 14th September 2016
This represents the new payment cycle. Given this increased burden
on consumers, there will be a relaxation of credit control policies for
old Randfontein consumers whose accounts are up to date during this
transition period, for the month of September.
Consumers who are unable to settle can make settlement arrangement with the municipality. Please contact your local municipal offices
for more clarity or call 011 411 0000 enquiries@randwestcity.gov.za

In brief
Family held at gunpoint in
home invasion
Westonaria — A family was tied
up and held at gunpoint in their
Glenharvie home early on Thursday 4 August.
According to Captain Siphiwe Ndlovu, Westonaria Police
spokesperson, three alleged gunmen, believed to be in their late
20s, entered the house at about
3am, while the residents were still
asleep. One of the residents, a
woman, woke up to find the three
suspects wearing balaclavas and
gloves in her bedroom. The suspects allegedly held the woman,
her son, 14, and her boyfriend,
43, at gunpoint. “They were then
tied up with electric cables by the
gunmen,” Ndlovu said.
The suspects stole valuable
items such as cellphones, a tablet
and cash. One of the gunmen allegedly hit the adult male on the
head with a gun. He allegedly
sustained a minor injury as a result. The suspects loaded the stolen items into a vehicle and fled
the scene. They are still on the
run. The Westonaria Police urge
anyone with information on this
case to contact them on 011 278
5300.
Police find firearm stashed
under mattress
Bekkersdal — The Bekkersdal
Police have arrested three men
after finding a firearm under a
mattress.
Sergeant Linkie Lefakane,
Bekkersdal Police spokesperson
said the suspects were arrested on
Saturday, 23 July.
Lefakane said Sergeant Lucky
Baloyi and Constable Vongani
Hlongwane were conducting
their routine patrol when they
received a complaint about a
suspect pointing a firearm. They
went to the scene, where they
found three men sitting in a
shack. “They officers requested
permission to search them, but
after nothing was found, they
searched the shack. A firearm
was found under the mattress
and no-one could account for
it,” Lefakane explained. The officers arrested the three suspects.
They were all charged with being
in possession of an unlicensed
firearm. The suspects appeared
in the Westonaria Magistrates’
Court three days later. Colonel
Mbangwa Nkhwashu, Bekkersdal station commander, applauded the officers for their good
work and encouraged all officers
to search for illegal firearms as
firearms are used in most serious
crimes.
One killed in vehicle-truck crash
Westonaria — One person was
killed and another sustained
moderate injuries when the vehicle they were travelling in collided with a truck on the N12 in
Westonaria.
According to Werner Vermaak,
ER24 spokesperson, “Shortly after the accident, paramedics arrived on the scene, and found a
severely damaged Toyota Corolla
on the side of the road.
“Two people were found inside
the vehicle. The driver of the vehicle had sustained fatal injuries
and was declared dead on the
scene. “The passenger was found
to have shoulder injuries. He was
extricated from the vehicle and
transported to the Fountains
Hospital for further care.
“It is understood that the
vehicle was travelling towards
Potchefstroom when the driver
apparently lost control. The vehicle overturned several times
and collided with an oncoming
truck.” The driver of the truck
did not sustain any injuries. The
incident was handed over to the
local police for further investigation.
Another dead, two injured
after vehicle rolls
Carletonville — A man was killed
and two others injured in yet another vehicle roll-over incident
– the second reported in just one
week – on the R501 just 8km outside of Carletonville.
According to Russel Meiring, ER24 spokesperson, a man
aged 30 died while trapped in his
vehicle after it collided with a
truck.
Meiring said ER24 paramedics arrived on the scene at about
6.20am and found a light motor
vehicle lying on its roof on the
side of the road, some distance
away.
The paramedics discovered the
body of a man lying trapped inside the light motor vehicle. On
climbing into the vehicle, they
found that the man had already
succumbed to his multiple injuries.
“Unfortunately, nothing more
could be done for the patient and
he was declared dead on scene.
Two other men, both in their 30s
were found on scene with only
minor injuries. It is believed both
men were thrown out of the vehicle when it rolled.”
Paramedics treated the patients
and thereafter transported them
to the Fountain Hospital for further treatment.
The cause of the collision is
not yet known but local authorities were on scene for further investigations.
One dead after vehicle collides
with motorcycle
Westonaria — A man was killed
when a vehicle hit a motorcycle
on the R28 near Neptunus Street
in Westonaria a forthnight ago.
According to Chris Botha, Netcare 911 spokesperson, paramedics responded to the collision at
about 6.22pm.
“Reports from the scene indicate that a car collided with the
side of a motorcycle. Paramedics
found the biker lying on the roadway with life-threatening injuries.
They worked feverishly at the
scene to stabilise the man and after he was placed on a ventilator,
they airlifted him by Netcare 911
Helicopter to a specialised hospital for the care he required.
“Tragically, soon after landing
at the hospital the man died from
the extensive injuries he had sustained.”
Exact details as to the cause of
the crash will be investigated by
the police.

Loumarina — Jacobus Marthinus van
Zyl, 66, (beter bekend as Koos Koei) is
onlangs oorlede.
Die oorsaak van sy skielike dood is
nog nie bekend nie.
Volgens sy vrou Bonnie het hy haar
om 4vm wakker gemaak en gesê hy
het 'n pyn op sy hart.
Hy het inmekaargesak en gesterf.
Koos sou dieselfde oggend om 8vm ‘n
operasie ondergaan om ‘n liesbreuk te
laat herstel.
Bonnie het vertel hoe ‘n groot skok
haar man se skielike dood is.
“Hy het 18 jaar gelede ‘n hartaanval gehad en dokters het hom net
drie jaar gegee om te leef, maar die
Here het hom ten spyte daarvan tot
vanoggend vir ons gespaar,” het Bonnie gesê.
Sy het gesê dit is ‘n groot verlies vir
die familie om hom op so ‘n ‘jong’ ouderdom te verloor.
“Ek is geseënd dat ek so ‘n wonderlike man vir so lank in my lewe kon
gehad het. Hy was betroubaar en ‘n
absolute mentor vir almal in die familie.”
Bonnie het gesê haar man was altyd
vol grappies en het tot die koeie op sy
plaas na elkeen van sy kleinkinders
vernoem.
“Familie was vir hom die belangrikste. Hy wou altyd hê daar moes
geluk in sy huis wees. Hy het die
kleinkinders altyd inkopiesentrum
toe gevat, grappies gemaak en dan
hardop saam gelag.”
Sy het ook van haar man se ongelooflike lewenskennis vertel.
“As jy ooit raad nodig het, weet jy
hy is die man om mee te praat. Hy het

Bogus cops strike in Randfontein
Randfontein — Bogus cops have infiltrated Randfontein.
This comes after a 31-year-old driver
was hijacked by bogus Metro Police officers wanting to fine him.
According to Captain Appel Ernst,
Randfontein Police spokesperson, the
driver was allegedly travelling on the
R559 in his company vehicle, a white
Toyota Quantum with the registration
number WSR 483 GP. As he passed
Mohlakeng Extension 7, he was confronted by the fake police officers who
were standing next to a white Polo.
They pulled him over and instructed
him to get out of the car so that they
could issue a fine.
However, as he neared the Polo, one
officer pulled a gun on him and ordered
him to get into the Polo’s back seat.
“According to the victim, there were
three suspects – two in uniform and the
other in civilian attire,” Ernst said.
The victim was later dropped off
in the Soweto area after the suspects
robbed him of his money, cellphones
and his vehicle, which contained a
number of first aid kits. The last incident of bogus police reported on by
the Herald occurred in Westonaria on
Friday, 15 May 2015. The victim, also
a driver of a company car, was stopped
by four men wearing South African Police Service uniforms.
‘It is compulsory
for officers
to have
identification’
These suspects pulled a knife on
the driver before forcing him into the
car. They eventually dropped him off
in Soweto. The car was later found
abandoned in Soweto. After the earlier incident, the Herald spoke to the

Colonel Selvan Moonsamy, who ex-

plained what residents should know
about police identification.
“In terms of the South African Police Service’s dress code, it is compulsory for officers to have identification.
If they do not have their name tags
with them, they have to find a means
to identify themselves, such as writing
their names on a piece of paper and
pinning it on their uniforms.”
“Alternatively,” Moonsamy continued, “police officers can identify themselves by showing their appointment
certificates.”
This certificate, he said, is no bigger
than a credit card. The card has a photo of the officer on the one side and his
or her details on the other. “It is compulsory for officers to carry their cards
at all times,” Moonsamy said.
The Randfontein Police urges residents to report any information that
might assist in the investigation.

First gold medal for SA at Rio 2016
• Corrie Louw skryf:
Dankie tog.
Soos vantevore het ‘n kosbare
storietjie sommer net gebeur. Met
die skrywe brand die Suid-Afrikaanse vuurtjie vir my darem so ‘n
aksie hoër.
Ek ry gou Randgate toe om ‘n
bietjie van daai onder-die-tafel,
dus goedkoper nikotienstokkies
in die hande te kry. So is ek na
Vrouedag en die swak rolbal wat
ek gespeel het effe ingedagte.
Daar is nie genoeg parkeerplek
nie. Ek roep die mannetjie nader
wat veronderstel is om [voertuie]
op te pas en besluit sommer om dit
anders te doen.
Die storie agter die storie is dat
ek eintlik ‘verkeerd’ gestop het,
sien.
Gee toe vir Gawie – ‘n Afrikaanse seun wie se gesig ek ken – vinnig
geld en seg “gaan koop asb by daai
doer oorkant vir my drie pakkies”.
Hy is gou daar weg en ek staan
ewe buite die motor met sy luierende enjin en wag.
Toe is daar ‘n kaleidoskoop van
mensies wat by ‘n heel besige win-
kel in- en uitbeweeg.
Party
dun,
ander
totaal
oorgewig, sommige nugter en ander dronk, met of sonder tatoes,
meeste ongeskik of ongemanierd.
In die paar minute word vir my
die agste wonder hoe party dames
hulleself in daardie jeans ingekry
het!
My maatjie kom terug, gee
vir my drie pakkies en ‘n klomp
kleingeld. Vra vir my “oom wil net
drie pakkies gehad het”?
Donker, vlietende gedagtes. Bevestig en hy sê “oom het my te veel
geld gegee, dié is oom se kleingeld”.
Toe kyk ons mekaar in die oë en
ek seg dankie.
Skakel toe die enjin maar af,
breek ‘n pakkie oop en bied hom
een aan.
Wou verder leer oor en kyk na
die mens wat hier voor my staan.
Dinges is dat ek nie ‘n aansteker
by my gehad het nie. Hy sê “skuus
oom ek is op vuurhoutjies, daar
waar ek slaap het iemand laasnag
my aansteker geneem”.
Is ons op vuurhoutjies of is daar
hoop?

Greenhills — Verskeie vrouewerknemers in Randfontein is Vrydag,
5 Augustus vir Vrouedag deur leerlinge van Laerskool Rapportryer
met sjokolade bederf.
Besighede en instansies wat deur
die leerlinge besoek is, is onder andere Lenmed Hospitaal, die Herald, Connie Mulder Sentrum, besighede in Homesteadlaan, Biltong
Den, NG Welsyn, Life Robinson
Hospitaal en Randgate Apteek.
Hulle het altesaam 700 sjokoladestafies uitgedeel.
Rappies se Graad 1-leerlinge
het onlangs besluit leerlinge moet
eerder sjokoladestafies skool toe
bring as om die tradisionele R5 te
betaal om gewone klere skool toe
aan te trek.
Leerlinge sou dan die sjokolade
by verskeie besighede in die dorp
uitdeel. Graad 1-onderwyser Sandra Hibbert het die organiseerwerk
gedoen.
Elke vrou in die Herald-kantoor
het nie net een nie, maar sommer
drie sjokoladestafies ontvang.
Zurica van Heerden en Ashley
Stewart, twee Graad 7-leerlinge
het vertel dat hulle sakevroue wat
dwarsdeur die jaar so hard werk, ‘n
bietjie wou bederf.
“Ons dink elke vrou verdien om
een keer ‘n jaar, buiten hul verjaarsdae, bederf word,” het Zurica
gesê.
“Rapportryer het groot waardering vir die vroue van Randfontein wat met soveel toewyding en
positiwiteit ’n bydrae lewer tot ons
gemeenskap,” het Roleen Olivier,
nog ‘n onderwyser by Rappies gesê.
“Rappies raak graag betrokke
en reik uit na dié vroue. Daarom
wou ons dankie sê deur by die
hospitale, mediese sentrums en
sakesentrums ’n sjokolade aan die
vroue te oorhandig as blyk van ons
waardering.”

Ram gee terug aan die gemeenskap

Zurica van Heerden en Ashley Stewart, leerlinge van Laerskool Rapportryer het sjokolade vir Bellah Mothlashuping, ontvangsdame van die Heraldkantoor vir Vrouedag gegee.
Homelake — Laerskool Randfontein
(Ram) se 67 minute vir Mandela-dag het
ure geword en toe dae.
Julie is Mandela-maand en Ram het
gewys dat hulle werklik vir die gemeenskappe van Randfontein en Westonaria
omgee.
Ram se leiers het ‘n projek geloods
wat groter geword het as wat hulle verwag het. Dit het behels dat elke leerling
gevra is om niebederfbare produkte te
skenk ten bate van die leierprojek.
Ram-leerlinge en -ouers het hul
harte oopgemaak en het meer as net
blikkieskos gegee. Sakke en sakke vol
skoonmaakmiddels, klere en speelgoed is ook ingesamel. Die skool het
dit wat ingesamel is, aan ‘n tehuis vir
bejaardes, ‘n kliniek in Hillside asook
‘n kinderhuis in Randfontein geskenk.
Ram se leiers het meer as hul 67 minute aan die projek gewy; hulle het nie
net die skenkings gesorteer en oorhandig nie, hulle het ook die geleentheid
gebruik om die mense wat die skenk-
ings ontvang het, te leer ken.
“Dit was ‘n baie emosionele ondervinding maar al die leiers het erken dat
dit die moeite werd was,” het Arthur
Begg, voorsitter van Ram se ouerleierkomitee gesê. Die laaste oorhandiging sou op Saterdag, 6 Augustus
gedoen word, dié keer aan ‘n ander
kinderhuis.
“Ram is opreg dankbaar vir al die
bydraes en is trots op elke leier vir die
inisiatief wat geneem is om ‘n klein verskil in soveel mense se lewens te maak,”
het Arthur gesê.

Jannas sê kwaliteit is
beter as kwantiteit
West Porges — Hoërskool Jan Viljoen (Jannas)
se leerlinge werk hard om voort te bou op die sewe
onderskeidings wat die 2015 Visuele Kunstematrikulante behaal het.
Die skool het onlangs ‘n werkswinkel aangebied sodat hulle die Visuele Kunsleerlinge kan
voorberei vir die komende praktiese eksamens.
Die werkswinkel is deur Dawie van Deventer, ‘n
bekende Wes-Randse kunstenaar aangebied.
Tydens die werkswinkel is die Graad 10, 11 en
12 Visuele Kunsteleerlinge opgelei om vinniger
te werk in akriel- sowel as olieverf tydens eksamensessies, maar om steeds hulle kreatiwiteit
ten volle uit te leef.
Hulle het ook geleer hoe om voorsketse vinniger te doen en ‘n behoorlike komposisie saam
te stel uit sketse.
Die fokus van die werkswinkel was op
kwaliteit in plaas van kwantiteit, en leerlinge is
aangemoedig om buite die grense te begin dink.
Vanjaar beoog Jannas se Graad 12 Visuele
Kunste-leerlinge om meer onderskeidings as
verlede jaar se matrieks in te palm.
Rierand se Olimpiese
boogskutter van die
toekoms
Homelake — Megan Robins, ‘n Graad 10-leerling van Hoërskool Riebeeckrand het tydens die
afgelope skoolvakansie ‘n silwermedalje in die
Bulls Eye-afdeling van die Wêreld Boogskietkampioenskappe losgeslaan.
Die kampioenskappe is in KwaZulu-Natal
gehou.
Megan is ‘n lid van die Inyathi Archery-boogskietklub waarvan verskeie ander Riebeeckrand-leerlinge ook lede is.
Haar tegniek is die afgelope drie jaar deur die
skool se boogskietklub ontwikkel en toe deur
talentsoekers vir die Centreshot-kampioenskapspan opgeraap. Die span het gesamentlik twee
gouemedaljes onderskeidelik in die Bulls Eye en
die 3Di-afdeling verower.
Megan is vanjaar ook lid van die Gautengboogskietspan en gaan in Oktober aan die
provinsiale boogskietkampioenskappe deelneem.
“Hoërskool Riebeeckrand se boogskutters
vaar uitstekend en dit is lekker om te sien hoe
jong talent ontgin en ontwikkel word,” het
Elzerie Botha, skoolwoordvoerder gesê.
Megan Robins van Riebeeckrand is ‘n uitblinker in
boogskiet. Foto ingestuur.

Women’s cricket on the
rise at RCC
Greenhills — Randfontein Cricket
Club (RCC), one of the oldest
clubs in the country, recently hosted a cricket clinic for women – a
first in the club’s history.
Cricket South Africa recently
urged all clubs to expose women
to cricket at international level, so
RCC grasped the opportunity with
both hands, and hosted a cricket
clinic for all women hoping to gain
skills in this sport.
With the Gauteng Cricket
Board’s Women’s League Organiser, AJ Rudman, the head coach for
the U/16 Gauteng West women’s
team, Tamsyn Klein, and Rachel
Langley, coordinator of Johannesburg West women’s cricket as
coaches, the day turned out to be a
huge success.
The main focus of the clinic was
to develop women’s cricket in primary schools, so that the girls will
be ready to compete internationally by the time they reach high
school.

On this day, about 18 girls (most
of them from Hoërskool Riebeeckrand) showed up to learn some
cricketing skills.
“The boys at school said girls
can’t play cricket, and we want
to prove them wrong,” said Eztia
Saunders, one of the girls attending the clinic. Adele Locker, RCC’s
secretary, hopes to see the girls return and form the first-ever women’s team at the club.
“I am very excited about the new
season and would like the girls to
compete in it,” she said.
She also mentioned that Riebeeckrand’s first cricket team was
a great motivation for the girls, as
they participated in a match at the
club during the clinic.
Adele is positive about taking
the club to new heights and encourages everyone to join.
For more information, contact Kgomotso Phoshoko, RCC
chairperson on 078 799 2183; or
Tamsyn Klein, on 083 406 8060.

Following in his
father’s footsteps

Randgate — A young Randfontein
boxer is continuing his father’s legacy
by picking up where his father left off in
the boxing world.
Abel Ndava Ndava, a 21-year-old
boxer from the Randgate Boxing Club
(RBC) spoke to the Herald of the trials
he has had to overcome and the successes he has achieved.
Ndava started boxing in 2008 at a
Carletonville boxing club. When asked
why he started boxing in the first place
he said, “My father was a boxer. He
didn’t get any big titles but he was a
good boxer.”
After his coach moved away, Ndavaleft his initial club and started boxing
for Randgate in 2014. It takes about an
hour to get from Carletonville, where
Ndava lives some of the time, to the
Randgate club, depending on whether
he can hitch a ride on the side of the
road, or not. If he can’t, he takes a taxi.
To make travelling easier, especially
before big bouts, Ndava has managed
to get temporary accommodation,
with the help of RBC’s head coach,
Willie Consalves.
Since becoming a member of the
RBC, Ndava has flourished. For the
past three years, he has won gold at the
Gauteng Boxing Championships. And,
in the South African Boxing Championships in 2014, he won silver. He has
also been accepted into the SANABO
Boxing League (SBL) team in the 58kg
to 60kg weight class.
Ndava has plans to earn many boxing titles. So far he has had 20 bouts, of
which only four were losses.
This boxer fancies himself a young
Floyd Mayweather – Mayweather having been referred to as the world’s most
conditioned boxer. As a result, Ndava
trains five days a week, and includes
strenuous cardio and power exercises
as well as sparring and running in his
programme. He said he runs 11km every week to keep his stamina up.
“My secret to success is stamina and
a relaxed boxing style in the ring. In
training, push-ups and core exercises
are important for me. And my secret
weapon is my straight right,” he said.
Statistics and information:
• 58kg to 60kg weight class
• Silver grading
• Orthodox stance
• Twenty fights
• Four losses
