The change of climate towards the end of the year usually also means inceased spending by consumers as year-end approcahes. But it also means that robbery season is upon us. On Monday morning this week, vehicles of Protect Security in Burgersfort were filling up at Burgerfort Toyota when shots were heard in the region of the banks across the street in Twin City Shopping Centre. Rushing to the scene they found the Police already on the scene after being alerted by a bystander when a woman was allegedly almost robbed at gunpoint when she exited a bank. According to eyewitnesses the culprits had fled in a Nissan Sentra and the Police and the personnel of Protect Security gave chase on the R37 towards Lydenburg. Meanwhile shots were also heard across the street at the new Platinum Place centre and some of the Police personnel rushed there to see what was happening. . The pursuit ended at the tall trees next to the road after passing PLM Boerdery, before the Steelpoort turn-off. In the photograph suspects lie on the ground while Police search the vehicle. Although a firearm was not found, ammunition was found in the vehicle. Five suspects were arrested and was scheduled to appear in court later this week. The photograph was aken by Mr Christiaan Pretorius of Protect Security on his cellphone.

Imbizo at Ga-Riba
Sekhukhune District Executive Mayor, Mogobo David Magabe (onthe left in phohtograph, left), visited Ga-Riba on Wednesday as part of the governments outreach programme in communities to discuss problems with ervice delivery. Also present to hear first hand what residents experience were Limpop MEC for Roads and Transport, Pinky Kekana (third from left, talking to Kgosi-gadi Riba, second from left) and Greater Tubatse Municipality Mayor, Nkosi Josias Mahlake (right in the photograph). Also present were the District Speaker, members of the mayoral Committee and councillors. One of the main concerns of residents is the condition of the road to GaRiba (everyone who has travelled this road knows it is bad at its best and an absolute nightmare to get to this village on top of the mountain from RibaCross when it rains, then you walk - editor). The days discussions gave ample opportunity to the large audience to air their views on the issue.
Friday!
The people of Limpopo are encouraged to wear their t-shirts/replica jerseys for rugby on the days when Springboks are playing during the Rugby World Cup. Magnificent Friday is a national initiative of Sports and Recreation South Africa which was launched early this year with the aim of making South Africa a sporting nation. The national Arts and Culture Department is also part of the initiative. Activities that will be presented during the Friday campaigns will be teaching people the National Anthem, teaching them about national symbols, distribution of flags and educating the public about the importance of sport in their lives. The rationale and idea behind Magnificent Friday is to build on the tremendous wave of goodwill and national pride that South Africa experienced during Football Fridays that were celebrated during the 2010 FIFA World Cup.

South Africa vs Wales in Wellington 11 September 2011, 10:30am South African time
Mr Wilson Ngobeni said: Yes, Ill follow the World Cup. They can win on Sunday. The guys are motivated. This is a different stage, they need to gear up and perform. They are also representing Africa, not only South Africa, so theyve got two caps.
Mr Jackson Riba said: Ill listen to the radio to keep up with what is happening at the World Cup. Can they win on Sunday? Maybe. I think so.
Mnr John De Beer s: Ja, hulle kan wen. Ek sal dit volg, ek is ook op daai Super Bru waar jy kan vote. Dis amper dieselfde span as die vorige World Cup. Ons sal dit definitief maak tot by die semis, maar ons kan wen.
Mr Thamie Mthabisa and Mr Motseki Mokoena said: On the basis that they are the defending champions they will definitely beat Wales. We will be following the World Cup. Comments about the team are just individual speculation. In the past theyve made it, and the Springboks can do it again. Lets rally behind them, wear our jerseys on Friday and have some Madiba spirit. They can do it for him. They have the confidence coming with national pride and previous experience at the World Cup. They will bring the trophy home. For those who were worried about Habana being match fit, there are enough other players to make up the team and support.
JD van Staden s: Ja, ek gaan vir seker die Rugby Wreldbeker volg. Die groep wat gegaan het, maak nie nou meer saak nie. Die Springbokke sal Sondag teen Wallis wen. By hom is Roos-Marie van Staden.
Mnr Jacques Hansen s: Die Springbokke sal Wallis maklik wen. Ek het nie n probleem met die spankeuse nie. As Suid Afrika nie verder vorder nie, sal ek nie verder die Wreldbeker kyk nie. Ons behoort dit ten minste tot in die semi-finale te maak.
Mnr. Francois Labuschagne s: Dis die regte kaptein. Hulle moet net die regte kombinasies kies. Die Springbokke kan definitief Wallis wen. Ek sal die hele Wreldbeker volg.
Mnr Marnus van Tonder s: Ek weet nie, die Bokke is nie dieselfde span as die een van die vorige Wreldbeker nie. Ons vertrou hulle nou maar om hul deel te doen. Hulle sal Wallis wen. Hulle sal verder harder moet werk. Links: Mnr JB Willers s: Nee, wat. Ons moet hulle n kans gee. Ek sal die Wreldbeker volg. Ek dink hulle kan Wallis wen. Regs: Me. Mariana Matthysen s: Nee, ek gaan nie die rugby volg nie. Ek is te besig. Ek sal by die manne hoor as hulle gewen of verloor het. Ek moet werk, het kinders wat aandag moet kry en is altyd besig. In my tydjies wat ek niks doen nie, doen ek Facebook. Daar is nie tyd vir rugby nie.
Mr Crosby Masilela said: They will be tough when they start on Sunday. Nothing is impossible. Lets hope they win. Ja, Ill follow the World Cup.
Mr Caplet Rikhotso said: Ja, they will win. We are proud of them. We wish them good luck. It is the right team. Once the coach chooses, it is the right team.
