- Description: ANC general secretary Cyril Ramaphosa (top left), and constitutional affairs and communications minister, Roelf Meyer, (top right) have been chosen as joint winners of New Nation’s 'Man of the Year Award”. The New Nation Award for "Businessman of the Year” goes to National Sorghum Breweries (NSB) chairperson, Professor Mohale Mahanyele (right). This is the first time that both awards are being made. The awards will be given annually in future in recognition of individuals who are deemed to have made a contribution in providing leadership for the general uptiftment of the people of South Africa. Ramaphosa and Meyer have been chosen for their tireless efforts in holding the negotiations process together during very arduous and difficult times. The rapport the two have struck has made a crucial difference as to whether the negotiations process flounders or goes forward. The two leaders are young and are likely to provide continuity and the excellent leadership that the transition period requires. Prof Mahanyele has provided bold imaginative leadership in the business world. He has placed black economic empowerment firmly on the agenda and has set his own company as an example of this. New Nation believes that it is business leaders like Prof Mahanyele who will ensure that black people reclaim their rightful place in the economic life of the country. The awards will be officially presented to their winners early in 1993. Democratic Party (DP) leader, Dr Zach de Beer, said: “The two (Ramaphosa and Meyer) have given all they could to get the negotiations process back on track... they deserve it.” The newly-appointed chief of the Development Bank of South Africa Prof Wiseman Nkuhlu said Prof Manyelele’s achievement would “serve as a model to other black organisations involved in economic empowerment”.

- Description: KITSKONSTABELS in the Karoo town of Aberdeen this week shot and beat a priest while he lay handcuffed and dying, accusing him of being a communist. These allegations were made by residents who claim to have witnessed the incident. Police have confirmed that municipal police shot and killed Rev Booi Jantjies (40) of the Zion Church in Africa, but deny the residents' version. Residents say Sergeant James Ndunjane described Rev Jantjies as a "communist suspect" after the latter was shot. A witness who asked not to be named said nine kitskonstabels had gone to Jantjies' house between 9 and IOpm on Tuesday, but.-, had not found him. "They took away his son, whom they said was suspected of dealing in dagga," said the eye-witness. "Jantjies1 son was told he was being taken to the house of Ndu- njeni's brother Mbu- leni, also a kitskon- stabel. "When Rev Jantjies arrived home, he heard the news and went to look for his son in Ndunjane's house," he said.
