Abandoned Baby boy may grow without relatives

-
ABANDONED baby boy may grow up without knowing his parents, let alone his own siblings or relatives. This is after he was dumped at a food outlet in Polokwane, Limpopo on Saturday. The baby was found after the shocked customer found him in a toilet. The employees of the outlet were alerted of the incident and the police were called.

Handing a child over to a Social welfare place to take care of when one is unable to do so would have been a better solution but the suspect took a decision to leave the child in abundance. Although the child was left in the toilet in a food outlet there was no assurance that he will be safe.

Many questions raised; what would have happened to him should no one goes to the toilet until the workers close it down? The Saturday weather was chilly and it was raining in Polokwane, the question remains; what could have happened to the young one the whole night and the whole of Sunday? The innocent soul does not know if the parent hates him so much to can be able to abundant him in a toilet.

According to the police in Limpopo, the toddler was found on the floor wearing a Jersey and wrapped with a blanket. Spokesman for the police Colonel Moatshe Ngoepe says the manhunt for the mother of the child is continuing.

"The motive behind this incident is still unknown at this point but the ongoing police investigation will tell. The case of child neglect was opened but the mother is still not known and there is no arrest. The baby might have few days. He was taken to hospital for medical assistance," says Ngoepe.

He urged those with information which can help in the apprehension of the suspect to contact Captain Martin Thema on 0824517155 or the crime stop number 0860010111, crime sms line 32211 or the nearest police station.

We greeted each other and later I told him that I never used the machine he is using and I wish he can teach me how it operates. He refused saying he can’t teach me and we were both fine with it but few minutes after he stand up and started insulting me. I don’t know if the machine finished his money or what. He said “I can’t be playing next to a Bobejaan, no I can’t be sitting here’. I was shocked,” said Kwinda. He said after the man moved to another machine Kwinda then followed him with confrontation over the Bobejaan (Baboon) word. He said the man continued

PARAMOUNT King of Bapedi tribe Thulare Thulare III want the former regent Kgaudi Sekhukhune to bring back all the documents he used during his era. Thulare says that will make him forgive Sekhukhune and continue with their lives as son and uncle. The two had been in a fight over a throne for years. The fight started between Thulare's late father Rhyne and Sekhukhune.  The matter was settled by the High court last year when declaring Thulare as the rightful King of Bapedi tribe over Sekhukhune. The tribal fight divided the communities in Sekhukhune area. Sekhukhune did not back down and took the matter to the Supreme Court of Appeal to set aside the high court decision. "Please tell KK to bring back all the books and tribal documents. I hope he is keeping them safe because I heard he is selling land to the communities. I'm sorry to say this but those who are buying land from him are stupid. How can they buy the land belonging to themselves, because they supposed to
