    An assessment of the perception of the role of the Christian religious leader in the political process: the case of the Nelson Mandela Bay Municipality By Thomas Frank Terblanche Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for Magister Artium: Political Science to be awarded at the Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University January 2017 Supervisor: Prof Joleen Steyn-Kotze i Acknowledgments Firstly, I would like to thank my Lord and Saviour Christ Jesus. I am more aware of Apostle Paul’s assertion, “I can do all things through Christ who Strengthens Me” (Philippians 4:13), now after completing this task. Without the strength of God, I would have never accomplished it. My sincerest appreciation must be extended to my supervisor Prof Joleen Steyn-Kotze. Prof your patience and guidance through this project is unmatched. Thank you for drawing the best out of me. I am truly privileged to have you as an academic mentor. To my parents Roland and Nola Terblanche. Thank you for constantly believing in me and in my abilities. I could not have asked for better parents! To my broader circle of family, friends and mentors. I am reminded of Hebrews 12:1. Indeed, you are my ‘great cloud of witnesses.’ Your encouragement throughout the process inspired me to soldier on. Special mention must be made of my mentors Pastor Haydon Ownhouse and Dr. Randall Jonas. Your gentle nudges were exactly what I needed. The participants, who were more than eager to give me of your valuable time, thank you. The knowledge you possess about local political environment and the perceived role of clergy is immaculate.

  • Lee Bowyer Talks Leeds United, with Jon Howe
    Y PHONE RINGS at 10.42am. It’s Lee Bowyer. Of course. He immediately apologises for not answering when I rang at the pre-arranged time of 9.30am; when he dropped his two six- year-old kids off at school he realised he had to attend a Harvest Festival assembly. I gave a knowing laugh, having been caught short in the same situation on the school run a few times. And here I was, swapping stories with Lee Bowyer on the humdrum trials of being a parent to young kids. Two normal blokes with normal concerns. We were aligned in the everyday travails of life’s rich tapestry, and yet fifteen years ago Lee Bowyer was my favourite Leeds United player. In fact, he was my ‘last’ favourite Leeds United player. After Lee Bowyer left Leeds United in 2003, the Catchinghi emotional strain of putting all my faith in one player seemed futile. Plus, well, you’ve watched Leeds United over the last decade, haven’t you? The enduring and relentless echo of ‘L’Bowya, L’Bowya’ around Elland Road has left more of up with the a lasting impression than the same chant for the perhaps more exalted Tony Yeboah. Purely because it was in our songbook for longer. Not simply out of habit, but as a result of performance; for years, every game, without fail. He was that good. In 2015, can you imagine Running such a thing? Lee Bowyer has endured a lifetime of not being able to fully explain himself. I initially approached him to write his autobiography.

  • Conceding an Own Goal
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by South East Academic Libraries System (SEALS) Sidelining Developmental Goals? Re-imaging Port Elizabeth for the 2010 Soccer World Cup Gary Baines, Rhodes University When I lived in Port Elizabeth in the 1980s, jokes about the ‘Ghost on the Coast’ abounded. Despondency about the city’s prospects was the dominant mood. The economic slump experienced by Port Elizabeth during the 1980s was due in part to tightening economic sanctions on the apartheid regime, and in part to the city’s dependence on the fortunes of the motor industry. The PE-Uitenhage metropole’s loss of primacy as a motor assembly-cum- manufacturing centre was prompted by General Motors’s and Ford’s disinvestment from South Africa. The militancy of the labour unions, the government’s inadequate incentives and the absence of secondary industries such as steel production in the region were further constraints on the development of the sector. However, GM’s selling off of its Struandale plant to Delta, a corporation of local investors/entrepreneurs, and Volkswagen’s decision to remain in the country probably prevented the collapse of the motor vehicle manufacturing sector in the metropole. The lights of the city were dimmed but not switched off. With the advent of a democratic dispensation the city of Port Elizabeth has reinvented itself. It has appropriated the name of Nelson Mandela although it has no association with South Africa’s greatest icon. Greater Port Elizabeth, Despatch and Uitenhage collectively became known as Nelson Mandela Metropole (NMM) and the municipality as the NMMM.

  • Playing by FIFA's Rules: the Politics and Potential
    Playing by FIFA’s Rules: The Politics and Potential Legacy of Port Elizabeth’s Hosting 2010 World Cup Matches Abstract Port Elizabeth was the first South African city to complete construction of a brand new venue to host 2010 FIFA World Cup matches. The metropolitan authority backed by the private sector hopes this spectacular event will change the city‟s Cinderella status and transform it into a “winning city”. However, meeting FIFA‟s requirements has many pitfalls. The escalating cost of the stadium has contributed to the metropole‟s budget shortfall thereby hindering its own service delivery obligations. Long-term developmental goals will be sacrificed for the sake of enhancing the city‟s image. Consequently, the legacy of the World Cup will be economically uneven and politically fractious. 8.447 mots, 54.472 signes (espaces et note en bas page inclus) Playing by FIFA’s Rules: The Politics and Potential Legacy of Port Elizabeth’s Hosting 2010 World Cup Matches The 2010 Fédération International de Football Association (FIFA) World Cup is billed as the largest sporting event ever held on South African soil. The spectacle will dwarf the Rugby and Cricket World Cups held in 1995 and 2003, respectively, in terms of the size of live and television audiences, the scale of advertising and sponsorship deals, as well as the amount of government investment in infrastructure. The staging of such mega-events confirms the African National Congress government‟s embrace of neo-liberalism for it reiterates the country‟s place within the world of economic globalisation. FIFA operates within this trade/tourism nexus and the 2010 World Cup will be a “mega-event” in every sense of the word.

A lot has been said and written since the passing away of Philemon “Chippa” Masinga, a day after the launch of Election Manifesto of the governing party, but allow me to pay our last respects to one of the gentlemen of the game of billions. He began his professional career at the famed football university of yesteryear known as Jomo Cosmos Football Club under the watchful eye of Roy Matthews and Jomo Sono – and he went to mesmerise many a defender with the late insanely gifted teenage Thomas “Chincha” Madigage and the maverick Augustine Makalakalane, just mention but a few of the stars that made up the Cosmos of the early 1990s. Theirs was a formidable, feared and respected outfit that contributed immensely to the early Bafana Bafana set up following readmission into the international stage as well as contributing the bulk of its squad to the all-conquering Orlando Pirates team of the mid 1990s that went on to be crowned African Champions in 1995.
