Cape Town – Nosayinete Cetyiwe from the Delft, who is 103 years old, is among the oldest to have registered for the phase two vaccine roll-out programme in the Western Cape.
Western Cape government Health MEC Dr Nomafrench Mbombo, nurses and community health-care workers registered elderly community members in Delft on May 10 ahead of the phase two vaccine roll-out programme.
Cetyiwe from the Delft South community, joined at least 29 other elderly community members to sign up for their jab at the Masimanyane for Aged, Disabled and Child Educare Centre.
This commitment is apparent in its investment into the Oceana Empowerment Trust (OET). Over 2400 previously disadvantaged South African beneficiaries hold 13,3 million shares in the Oceana Group through the Trust, translating into over 10% of the group’s total issued shares. This makes the OET the largest fishing entity in South Africa, with 100% black ownership with a market value of just under R1 billion.
This year, as the OET vests, its impact on the beneficiaries’ lives and their families and communities is astounding. OET chairperson Jayesh Jaga said: “The Trust was created as a platform for black beneficiaries to become financially empowered and active participants in South Africa’s formal economy. It is a legacy we’re proud of,” said Jaga.

Cape Town – The Hout Bay Seal Rescue Centre says they are at their wits’ end, with fears they may be potentially evicted after the Department of Public Works (DPW) “indicated” they will be putting up the centre for tender.
The centre rehabilitates and releases stranded, injured or distressed Cape fur seal pups which have been rescued by volunteers.
Its administration and fund-raising director, Kim Krynauw, said they had a long-standing agreement with the Oceana Group to use part of the lots; however, in February, Oceana said it was cancelling its lease as it was letting go of some of the lots.
