Brenda Mpamba, \u2018n ANC-raadslid en \u2018n voormalige burgemeester van die Thembelihle-munisipaliteit in Hopetown, moet weer op 18 Oktober in die plaaslike landdroshof op twee aanklagte van bedrog verskyn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sy het na bewering vals amptelike eise vir reise ingedien.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Intussen het Amanda Penxa, ANC-woordvoerder van die Pixley ka Seme-streek in ? verklaring bevestig dat Mpamba as die tesourier vir die streek opsy staan. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\u201cDie opsystaanre\u00ebl is deel van die ANC se strewe om te hernuwe. Hoewel Mpamba nie meer aan ANC-bedrywighede mag deelneem nie, dien sy steeds as \u2018n ANC-raadslid van die dorp. Sy sal weer haar party-pos vul wanneer sy onskuldig bewys is. Haar besluit is prysenswaardig.\u201d<\/div>\n
Amanda Penxa<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Mpamba dien ook op die Vereniging van Plaaslike Regering (Salga) se Noord-Kaapse uitvoerende provinsiale raad. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kapt. Tebogo Thebe, Valke-woordvoerder, het bevestig dat Mpamba tereg staan op twee aanklagte van bedrog. Haar eerste verskyning was op 4 Oktober, en sy sal weer op 18 Oktober verskyn. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cDie aanklagte hou verband met bewerings dat sy geld vir reiskoste by die munisipaliteit ge\u00ebis het, terwyl die reise nie plaasgevind het nie.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die politieke omwentelinge in die betrokke munisipaliteit het oor die jare opspraak verwek. Die jongste was n\u00e1 verlede jaar se munisipale verkiesing toe Mpamba weer die ANC se burgemeesterskandidaat was nadat sy in die vorige termyn as eerste burger gedien het. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die ANC hou 5 van die 11 setels, die EFF 3, en die DA, VF Plus en die Siyathemba-gemeenskapsbeweging (SGB) 1 setel elk. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Volgens Danny Jonas, SGB-lid en Thembelihle-speaker, het die SGB en ANC ooreenkomste om mekaar se kandidate in die Thembelihle- en Siyathemba-munisipaliteit in Prieska as burgemeesters te verkies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
<\/div>\n
Die vonke het egter gespat toe hy teen sy party se voorskrifte in \u2019n d\u00e9j\u00e0 vu-oomblik nie vir Mpamba as ANC-burgemeesterskandidaat gestem het nie, maar vir die EFF se Leonard Makena.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEk het na die pleidooie van die gemeenskap geluister,\u201d s\u00ea Jonas. Hy het na die vorige munisipale verkiesing in 2011 ook strydig met sy destydse party se voorskrifte nie vir Mpamba as burgemeester gestem nie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die DA en die VF Plus het verlede jaar ook vir Makena gestem, wat toe as burgemeester verkies is. Jonas en Makena is onderskeidelik as speaker en burgemeester na \u2018n chaotiese raadsvergadering in Desember 2021 deur ANC-raadslede uit die kussings gelig. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hulle het hulle na die hof gewend en is vroe\u00ebr vanjaar in hul poste heraangewys. Jonas s\u00ea hy en Makena het die nasionale tesourie genader waarna \u2018n forensiese ondersoek in Augustus vanjaar by die munisipaliteit gedoen is. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Intussen is Jonas met die SGB in \u2018n hofstryd gewikkel weens bewerings dat die party hom onre\u00eblmatig geskors het. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wynand Boshoff, VF Plus-LP, s\u00ea sy party aanvaar dat enige beskuldigde onskuldig is tot die teendeel bewys is. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOns verwelkom Mpamba se hofverskyning. Die munisipaliteit het oor die afgelope jare swak presteer, hoewel die omringende ekonomie betreklik goed vaar. Bewerings van korrupsie was algemeen, maar ondersoeke het onvoldoende getuienis vir vervolging gelewer. Sedert opposisiepartye verlede jaar die bewind oorgeneem het, het korrupsie-ondersoeke egter rigting begin kry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\u201cDie sage bewys weer eens hoe belangrik dit is dat een party nie die politieke toneel oorheers nie. In Thembelihle het partye wat nie in \u2018n koalisie is nie saamgewerk om die ANC uit die plaaslike regering te verwyder. Dit het die weg vir \u2018n deeglike ondersoek geopen.\u201d<\/div>\n
Wynand Boshoff<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Jonas was as ANC-raadslid na die 2011-munisipale verkiesing veronderstel om vir Mpamba as burgemeester te stem, maar het vir homself gestem. Die ANC het daarna sy lidmaatskap opgehef, waarna hy weer as \u2018n onafhanklike raadslid na \u2018n tussenverkiesing ingekom het en as burgemeester verkies is. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jonas het toe in die munisipale verkiesing in 2016 as EFF-kandidaat gestaan, waarna die destydse LUR van samewerkende regering hom hof toe gesleep het nadat laasgenoemde se verto\u00eb by die Onafhanklike Verkiesingskommissie misluk het. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die LUR het aangevoer Jonas het sy status as onafhanklike raadslid prysgegee toe hy hom as EFF-kandidaat beskikbaar gemaak het en \u2018n vakature verklaar word. Jonas het di\u00e9 hofstryd gewen vanwe\u00eb \u2018n gebrek aan bewyse dat hy \u2018n lid van die EFF is. Hy het nie n\u00e1 die verkiesing in 2016 as raadslid gedien nie.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

It has a long-standing history of serving the community with news and information pertinent to the region. The newspaper, distributed in the capital and more than 20 towns, is also read online in other parts of the vast province, and has been an important source of information for residents of the Northern Cape. The publication is geared towards Afrikaans and English-speaking readers, with the content reflecting the cultural diversity of the province. Like the other regional newspapers in South Africa, NoordkaapBulletin has had to adapt to changing media landscapes, including the rise of digital news platforms. However, it remains a significant part of the media landscape in the Northern Cape, helping to keep communities informed and connected.","email":"noordkaapbulletin@novusmedia.co.za","telephone":"+27514047600","legalName":"Novus Media (Pty) Ltd","foundingDate":"2025-01-01","vatID":"4100318916","taxID":"2000\/018234\/07","numberOfEmployees":{"@type":"QuantitativeValue","minValue":"51","maxValue":"200"}},{"@type":"Person","@id":"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/#\/schema\/person\/e08d7630612634c4a5ced5db09b6608f","name":"Noordkaap Bulletin","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"en-ZA","@id":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/a99daa5b340dd77d269e8375259ff19cc6329797ffcecb12b900fcfff3ce0bea?s=96&d=mm&r=g","url":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/a99daa5b340dd77d269e8375259ff19cc6329797ffcecb12b900fcfff3ce0bea?s=96&d=mm&r=g","contentUrl":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/a99daa5b340dd77d269e8375259ff19cc6329797ffcecb12b900fcfff3ce0bea?s=96&d=mm&r=g","caption":"Noordkaap Bulletin"},"url":"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/author\/noordkaapbulletin\/"}]}},"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/7822393985d94954aeb9a445556d3ed0.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":56539,"url":"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/speaker-se-huis-met-petrolbomme-bestook-20221021-2\/","url_meta":{"origin":56811,"position":0},"title":"Speaker se huis met petrolbomme bestook","author":"Noordkaap Bulletin","date":"21 October 2022","format":false,"excerpt":"Die speaker van die Thembelihle-munisipaliteit in Hopetown leef in vrees nadat sy huis glo op 15 Oktober met petrolbomme bestook is.","rel":"","context":"In "News"","block_context":{"text":"News","link":"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/news\/"},"img":{"alt_text":"","src":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/b1b66e8c26a346b3a4b4bb7930482a3a.jpeg?resize=350%2C200&ssl=1","width":350,"height":200,"srcset":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/b1b66e8c26a346b3a4b4bb7930482a3a.jpeg?resize=350%2C200&ssl=1 1x, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/b1b66e8c26a346b3a4b4bb7930482a3a.jpeg?resize=525%2C300&ssl=1 1.5x"},"classes":[]},{"id":59153,"url":"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/noordkaapbulletin\/party-wen-1ste-nk-wyk-20220426-2\/","url_meta":{"origin":56811,"position":1},"title":"Party wen 1ste nk-wyk","author":"Noordkaap Bulletin","date":"28 April 2022","format":false,"excerpt":"Die EFF het verlede week sy eerste wyk in die Noord-Kaap gewen met \u2019n voormalige ANC-burgemeester van Pampierstad as sy kandidaat.
