The Amakhosi weekend special

Many expected a walk over by Pirates over Chiefs. this was silencedd by the well organised defense if Amakhosi and a vibrant combination at the Middle field. from the start Chiefs were all over AmaBhakabhaka and they were awarded an own goal by the Seasoning Hot Klate who made a blunder with a clean finish towards his own net. One questions the where abouts of the Pirates defense if Klate was that close to the goal post.

This was followed by a penalty awarded to Chiefs and Musona gave a neat Finish sending Josephs flying faster then a fighting Jet towards the wrong direction. The start of the second half did not change much from the first half because Chiefs came strong to score thier goal number three through a world class finish from the youngster Musona. Late substitutions for Pirates made a difference Utorogu scored a scorcher after nicely opening a flat footed Chiefs defense.

The final score was 3-1 Chiefs winning over Pirates. Is this game a dress rehersal for the Final; lets wait and see. Hope that Fax Mkhize and other Pirates supporters will go to work on monday with healed wounds from the weekend. Shapa Amakhosi shapa!!!!

President's suprise to Ministers and MP's

When most expected that President Jacob Zuma was going to award a full recommended 7% increase of salaries for Ministers and Members of Parliament. The President has come with an unexpected move to award an increase of 5% to his Cabinet and Members of Parliament. Many still believe that the President was being reactive towards what the Unions were going to say had he awarded a full 7%.

The bright side about this, is that President Zuma understands that other than the salary payouts Ministers and Members of Parliament still receive extra benefits that enable them to afford a luxurious lieving. Secondly President Zuma is setting a trend showing that what happens to workers as a government offer is not totally different from what the Ministers and MP's should get.

This move may raise many eye brows but on  needs to commend the President for his vigilant and correct move. Tpmoftalks supports the decision by President Zuma.
