Today I went to our student centre to withdraw money and I was so shocked to notice the challenges which are facing disable students in withdrawing money from ATM.
The beautiful queen was on wheelchair and could not reach the screen and keyboard of the ATM; and was forced to climb her wheelchair to reach to the greater view of ATM. Firstly, I wanted to assists her but something strike my mind that, this is a private matter so I refrain from infringing her right to privacy.
I observe with little pray what was happening and asking God to help her not to fall because I will feel guilty for not assisting her. After she finished, she turn with her radiant smile and walk away.
My question was, “Is there any ATM which is designated for disable? If there is one, why is not available for public use”?
I then navigate the search engine called google for some answers and the following links were good Samaritans to my questions:
* ATM) For Disabled Peoples
* Accessible automatic teller machines for sight-impaired persons and print-disabled persons
The last links highlight some challenges and suggests some solutions to this problem and I am hoping that our South African Banks will make use of this ground breaking invention and innovation skills.
What do you think?

Devine Sinister Agendas
Last December of 2008, I attended a Blessings ceremony for graduate at our local church to please my mother. Even though I knew it was a criminal offense to attend a church ceremony in order to please someone but I've done so.
I know I don't have powers to judge other human beings but I can't just standby and endure the sinister agendas.
Our ceremony came to an end and it was the time to listen to the Bishop. He told the congregation to Vote for the ruling party and he quoted from the bible on how sinful it is to disobey his church stance. I thought for a while, when was this decision taken by the church members? I tried to consult some elders there about my question but they told me to follow the Bishop "wise" advise.
He demonize Congress of the people (COPE)and Democratic Alliance (DA) existence.
I still recall his comment after he saw that the church was degenerating because of his statement. He said "I can see that these word are already burning like hell to other people".
Yes of course he got a democratic rights to canvas for his organization without cursing those who support alternative parties".
Churches are the first Community Based Organization (CBO)which are independent from association with any political organization. This is caused by nature of its membership who is derived from different political organization but integrated through the common goal of Praising and Worshiping of God.
Thanks God because some church leaders have stood their stance as church. Click on the below link to view some church leaders opinion on my statement.
