BY TERRY MADYAUTA/ FORTUNE MBELE WARRIORS striker Tino Kadewere (pictured) opened his scoring account for his club after notching a goal in Olympiue Lyonnais 3-2 win over Rc Strasbourg yesterday. Kadewere has settled well at the French gaints since moving from Ligue 2 side Le Havre, but a goal was elusive. However, the impressive forward ended the dry spell when opened the scoresheet for Lyon on the 12th minute, following a good run to a Mempis Depay pass and firing home from close range. The other two goals, were scored by Karl Ekambi on the 25th and 42th minutes. The former Harare City forward is expected to lead the attack when the Warriors take on Algeria next month. After scoring his first goal for Lyon Kadewere was elated. He said: “I'm very happy with the goal but also for the team. We needed a victory. We had a good match, we worked together. It was very important to us. The end was tough, but we stayed together.' All the three goals were assisted by Depay. Kadewere's goal comes as a relief and will likely help him maintain his spot in the Lyon first team. Meanwhile Terrence Dzvukamanja announced his arrival at giants Orlando Pirates with a bang following a superb debut goal, that took the Soweto side into the MTN8 semi-finals after beating Cape Town City in the quarter-finals at Orlando Stadium on Sunday. Dzvukamanja, who was on the radar of champions Mamelodi Sundowns after his former club Bidvest Wits sold its Premiership franchise, opted to settle at Pirates. The former Ngezi Platinum forward has lived to his declaration made upon signing for Pirates last month as he scored on his debut on Sunday. Upon signing for the Buccaneers he declared rgar: 'It’s about scoring goals; hopefully double digits and also about increasing my number of assists for the season. I think as an attacking player these are two areas that a player is judged.' On Saturday Dzvukamanja found the target with a perfect header in the 23rd minute from another new signing Wayde Jooste cross and the Buccanners held on to that goal to claim the semi-final berth. He ealier had a chance but his header sailed over the bar after he was set up by Golden Boot winner Gabadinho Mhango. The Zimbabwean international was replaced by Kabelo Dlamini in the 65th minute. Dzvukamanja has been nominated for the Nedbank Cup Player of the Year award for his exploits in the competition in the recently ended season when he was playing for Bidvest Wits. Meanwhile the Kaitano Tembo-coached SuperSport United also cruised through to the semi-finals of the MTN8 when they beat Tshakhuma Tsha Madzivhandila 3-2 at Thohoyandou Stadium in Limpopo on Sunday. Goalkeepers George Chigova (SuperSport) and Washington Arubi (TTM) sat on the bench on either side. Warriors striker Kuda Mahachi, who tested positve for COVID-19 and Evans Rusike were not part of the SuperSport squad which featured veteran Onismor Bhasera.

The announcement that restaurants and bars can resume full service to vaccinated customers from November 1 has lifted the spirits of business owners in Tobago.

The entertainment sector was allowed to reopen as safe zones on October 11 for the vaccinated population, but restaurants and bars were prohibited from selling alcohol.

But on Saturday, the Prime Minister revised his position, much to the delight of stakeholders.

The news has come as a huge relief to one restaurant owner who anticipates an increase in reservations.

Stacia Lindsay, owner of Fairways Restaurant, told Newsday she was elated to hear the update.

"It will mean more business activity because a lot of my customers ask for alcohol," she said.

Lindsay said cocktails are a big part of their service and the bartender will be called into action to whip up creations.

"We do cocktails and wines. We used to improvise and do non-alcoholic cocktails, but we can add the alcohol now."

Asked how business was for the weekend, Lindsay said things had picked up considerably.

"The weekend was very nice," she said.

On the process for reserving a table, Lindsay outlined the procedure.

"You make your reservation, we then ask if you are fully vaccinated. We ask what you would like to have, so there won't be a long wait for your meal. On entry you are told to present your vaccination card and ID card.

"A lot of persons say they don't have their card but they have a picture, but we don't accept that."

Lindsay noted though that they have started a database of their customers to note the vaccination status of loyal customers.

She added that the curbside pick-up is still ongoing for unvaccinated customers but she hopes people get vaccinated to enjoy the safe zones.

"The dining experience is so much better."

Tobago Business Chamber president Martin George was pleased but believes it's a long road to recovery.

"It's too early to expect an uptick in business given he (Dr Rowley) has set a timeline of November 1. Even with the limited reopening that has begun, things are still extremely slow in bars and restaurants. It will take a while to recover and we anticipate that this move from November 1 will give a boost, but I don't see the recovery kicking in until the year 2022. It's going to be a long road to recovery."

George believes the closure of beaches is another hindrance.

"That's a big part of problem. It's difficult to entice Trinis to come to Tobago when beaches are closed, we still under Soe (state of emergency), still under curfew, can't have glass of wine with the meal - it's discouraging for the average visitors.

"Only when you have a broader reopening that you will have people flocking back to Tobago.

"In Tobago, the dining-out crowd mainly comprises Trinis or foreigners. Dining out is not something that you can rely solely on the Tobago population."

It’s long been said that the Brazilian butt lift is a surgical procedure that comes with many risks, but no one would suspect that they’d be in danger of having their kidney swiped in pursuit of a curvier physique. A life coach by the name of Anita took to her YouTube channel to share the cautionary tale of her friend who traveled to the Dominican Republic for plastic surgery but ended up getting more than she bargained for. The media has always made women feel insecure about some parts of their bodies with ads about true beauty looks. And in the last several years, a surgical procedure has hit society like wildfire as it has become the top trend for body appearance. The Brazilian butt lift (BBL) surgery gives women a flat stomach, hips, and a plump butt. To achieve this ‘coke bottle’ body that celebrities and ‘ Instagram models ‘ show off, women are finding surgeons overseas for a cheaper price. In many cases, paying less is a guaranteed win because dangerous consequences that arise.

THE Tobago Business Chamber is urging the Tobago House of Assembly (THA) to make safety and security the island’s top priority.

The chamber’s chairman, Martin George, made the appeal on Tuesday as the association welcomed the THA’s plan to set up a department of safety and security to address crime and criminality.

Tobago has recorded eight murders so far for 2022, most of which have been gun-related.

There have also been a number of shootings recently, including in Signal Hill.

Chief Secretary Farley Augustine announced the initiative during the assembly’s Mandate Monday forum at the Shaw Park Cultural Complex, saying the set-up for its structure is already at an advanced stage. He said it will also deal with terrorism and managing security around Tobago’s tourism industry.

George said the chamber has been calling for a crime-reduction initiative for the longest while.

“There are proposals that we have put forth. We have made suggestions and recommendations, because we have said without safety and security, Tobago has very little to market itself with as a tourist destination,” he said in a WhatsApp voicenote. “No one wants to leave their homes to come to an island where they would be put at risk, or where there is a spiralling murder rate or a prevalence of illegal firearms and persons being shot up.”

Saying there are too many guns in Tobago, George said the island should be policed more effectively.

He reiterated the chamber’s call for tighter screening of vehicles at the Scarborough port, “because that is where you would have most of the illegal items, either guns or drugs, coming in.”

George added, “It is ludicrous that you have a scanner for persons walking onto the boat, but you have no scanner for vehicles driving onto the boat.

“So in other words, you cannot walk onto the boat with a single firearm, but you could probably drive on with a vanload of firearms, because there is no scanner. It absolutely makes no sense that this continues, and as a result you see the spiralling crime rate and of course the increased murder rate in Tobago.”

George said the chamber is willing to stand with the THA in its fight against crime.

“We committed ourselves and pledge our support for any crime-reduction initiative. But we want the assembly to be willing to listen to ideas and to also be able to implement them and take action. We don’t want it to be another talk shop, another publicity stunt or PR exercise to appease or placate the public. We want this to be a meaningful, deep and lasting relationship whereby we work alongside the THA to ensure that effective strategies are implemented in this fight against crime to ensure that Tobago maintains its safety and security as its number-one priority.”

Former Tobago Hotel and Tourism Association president Rene Seepersadsingh also welcomed the department of safety and security.

“I think it is a good initiative. Tobago needs to have a unit that is Tobago-based and managed t
