To all the visitors to Mozambique this holiday season - just a reminder to be very aware of dealing with Sulemame Cabir on property or business.

Wow Blessed Blessed Blessed and Blessed again - Praise you Lord - You are amazing

Wow in my absence returning from Botswana, moving to JHB and off again tomorrow, so many comment have been posted in response to "THE SOCCER WORLD CUP 2010" posting on this dealingwithsulemanecabir blog!!!

In response to the Anonymous posting on 08 & 10 July 2010 in the middle of the most amazing Soccer World Cup 2010 ever - held in beautiful Africa.

Firstly nothing has been proved that we (Monica and Barry) have done anything wrong. We paid Sulemane I.H Cabir representing EMPRESA LIGITPROPS (with members Sulemane Ismael Hassane Cabir and Djamila Jane Wallace Cabir) a large sum of our hard earned money, which was our pension, in 2006 for 2000 m2 of lot 189 Tofinho, Inhambane, Mozambique.

There have been no defamatory comments or slander posted on this site – for every posting (except for those that state otherwise) there is a document, register entry at a Mozambique institute or other proof to substantiate the information.

Should Sulemane I.H. Cabir and EMPRESA LIGITPROPS be the legal owners of lot 189, Tofinho, Inhambane, Mozambique they have to date, nearly 4 years later, not been able to prove ownership or transfer ownership or prove EMPRESA LIGITPROPS have a legal DUAT over the 2000m2 in order to transfer 2000m2 of Lot 189, Tofinho, Inhambane, Mozambique, to us from EMPRESA LIGITPROPS. There is another individual with a legal building licence who now owns the 2000m2 and the casa we paid Sulemane I.H. Cabir for – as per the photo - the casa we bought from Sulemane I.H. Cabir and EMPRESA LIGITPROPS is in the background!!!

The hardest thing for me, Monica, to see was the effect you, Sulemane I.H. Cabir, had on Barry over the past few years. Barry saw you, Sulemane I.H. Cabir, as a honourable gentleman of the old school in our Tofinho, Inhambane, Mozambique adventure – honest and trust worthy. You, Sulemane I.H. Cabir, have to date, proved to be anything but that as we still do not have ownership or a legal DUAT issued by the Inhambane Municipal over lot 189, Tofinho, Inhambane, Mozambique!!!

I would hate to have seen somebody out there, especially people visiting from other counties for our wonderfully successful first ever Africa Soccer World Cup 2010, (hats off to South Africa, Bafana Bafana, President Zuma – and everyone else, including all of our beautiful African people) having to fight for something they paid their hard earned money for which never materialised.

Do you remember Sulemane I.H. Cabir that we were true friends (as stated by a Tofo residents) and lent you money when you were desperate on 12 April 2007 as per the following documents which you did not honour as agreed.






Would you EMPRESA LIGITPROPS (Sulemane I.H. Cabir and Djamila Jane Wallace Cabir) have been happy if you had paid your hard earned cash for something you did not receive?

The Inhambane Municipality, which is a Mozambique Provincial / Government institution of beautiful Mozambique, have documentation stating that EMPRESA LIGITPROPS no longer have the rights, i.e. a DUAT, to lot 189, Tofinho, Inhambane, Mozambique – according to Mozambique law!!!

What trap did we fall into - other than the Sulemane I.H. Cabir and EMPRESA LIGITPROPS trap? Our dealings with the Municipality were very limited and our case handed over to a Mozambique lawyer Dr Gloria Mussuei in 2007 within a few weeks of our first contact with the Municipal Inhambane, Mozambique.

It was not our duty to prove the ownership of EMPRESA LIGITPROPS or to try and sort this out. If it was legal as you state then there should not have been any problem – easy job – once again prove your honesty and integrity Sulemane I.H. Cabir and EMPRESA LIGITPROPS and sort out your ownership which would prove you did not commit fraud. It is not up to us the buyers of lot 189, Tofinho, Inhambane, Mozambique to sort out the sellers paperwork. I will be the first person to defend your honour should you prove otherwise!!!

There is no other blame here and to pass the blame onto any other institution is a cop out. Here is the challenge Sulemane I.H. Cabir and EMPRESA LIGITPROPS either sort out the ownership with the Inhambane Municipality in order for us to have the legal rights over lot 189, Tofinho, Inhambane, Mozambique (for which we paid you our hard earned money) according to Mozambique law or the only other alternative is to accept that you Sulemane I.H. Cabir and EMPRESA LIGITPROPS are con artists and fraudsters. In that case Sulemane I.H. Cabir and EMPRESA LIGITPROPS you owe us our money back!!!

Nobody in any country can accept money for something they do not own or have the right to sell – not even in the most primitive countries in the world!!! It is considered fraud to sell something to another party you do not own / cannot transfer ownership of - be it a litre of milk, a car or a property. Stop trying to place the blame elsewhere i.e. the Municipality Inhambane (it is disgusting that you have not - in nearly 4 years - sorted out the problem but just placed the blame on the Mozambique legal system). You Sulemane I.H. Cabir and EMPRESA LIGITPROPS took money for something you have not as yet been able to prove you had the right to sell because if you did we would not be in the predicament we are in now. Look at the posting placed by Anonymous on 16 May 2008 (pasted below) nothing has changed and that is the only evidence we (or any person reading this blog) can go on!!!

Monica and Barry are totally wrong and being driven to a vultures´ path by a network of corrupt Municipality officials and others! Sulemane Cabir is categorically the owner of plot 189. Undeniable proof is at the Inhambane City Registrar´s Office where the Municiapility corrupts tried illegally to anul is Title Deeds to cover up their wrongdoings. Monica and Barry bought an infrastructure (an unfinished house) from Sulemane Cabir. They didn´t buy land! They do have the legal documents from the relevant Government Departments prooving that, namely the "SISA" and the "Escritura Pública"! Monica and Barry don´t even need a DUAT!Legally and by force of Article 16 of Mozambique Land Law, when you by an infrastructure, the land called " Logradouro" or "Domínio Útil" is automatically the buyer´s domain.The Municipality is not competent and has no authority to deny Monica and Barry´s legal rights.It´s a shame and a pitty, inspite of many warnings, but they choose to believe in corrupt and criminal officials from the Municipality! And Sulemane Cabir spent more dealing with Monica and Barry paper work than what they claim and there are proof of that. Inhambane Town Hall is run by a network of corrupt officials allied to a group of specific South African elements involved in illegal land transactions.Monica and Barry should tell who is the Municipality oficcial that gave them a piece of paper written in portuguese and they signed it without knowing what the contents where!There is much more to the self inflicted saga! In time...

In conclusion – the wheel is turning and what goes around comes around. Watching America’s Got Talent – Sharon Osborn said it all – “The karma truck is parked outside the business in question – what you give out is what you receive”. Sulemane I.H. Cabir and EMPRESA LIGITPROPS – what you sow so you will reap.

I questioned my Wonderful Gracious God, when we returned to South Africa and had faced the horror from our lawyer Dr Gloria Mussuei by e-mail on 15 May 2008 (with supporting documentation supplied by the Municipal, Inhambane, Mozambique) that we had been conned, why we had to go through this and my Gracious God answered “My child, I knew you would fight”!!! I never want to see anybody else face the same dilemma and pay for something they do not own. I am currently reading a book which has brought me to tears – so much like our own experience – how many people this young lady touched / saved from going through a worse experience due to the situation she found herself in all because God knew “she would fight”!!!

All praise and glory to our Gracious God and Lord Jesus Christ – we are at Your service.

THE SOCCER WORLD CUP 2010

The Soccer World Cup 2010 is finally here and the spin off tourism and investment seekers will impact on South Africa as well as Southern Africa - this is wonderful for our beautiful corner of God's earth. The Soccer World Cup 2010 will see loads of visitors and investors visiting stunning Mozambique, many making Tofo / Tofinho in the province of Inhambane part of their destination. Some of the Soccer World Cup 2010 visitors will be looking for investment opportunities in Inhambane especially the Barra / Tofo / Tofinho area.

This brings me to the reason for my post on this blog. I would like to inform any potential investors wanting to invest in Mozambique to look very carefully before getting involved in any way with a Mozambique man named Sulemane Ismael Hassane Cabir.

Below are the details of some of the properties Sulemane I.H. Cabir once owned and other area's Sulemane Cabir mentioned he owned property in Mozambique.

Tofinho / Tofo, Inhambane province, Mozambique

• Parcel 189, Tofinho, Inhambane for which Sulemane Cabir has an original Title Deed in the name of EMPRESA LIGITPROPS. EMPRESA LIGITPROPS has two members namely Sulemane Ismael Hassane Cabir and Djamila Jane Wallace Cabir. Djamila Jane Wallace Cabir is the daughter of Sulemane I.H. Cabir. Sulemane Cabir informed us that Djamila Wallace Cabir lived in the UK and spent a year studying in Spain in 2007. Sulemane Cabir sold us 2000 square metres of Parcel 189, Tofinho and a casa. Sulemane Cabir and EMPRESA LIGITPROPS no longer had the rights to develop or sell Parcel 189, Tofinho according to the Municipal Inhambane i.e. Sulemane I.H. Cabir no longer has a DUAT over the property as required by the Mozambique law as this was revoked due to non development of the parcel.
• Parcel 215 Tofinho, Inhambane, Mozambique for which Sulemane Cabir has the original Title Deed in the name of Sulemane Ismael Hassane Cabir. Parcel 215, Tofniho, Inhambane was bonded through a financial institute by the name of GAPI in Maputo, Mozambique. There is an entry at the Conservatoria, Inhambane dated 24 April 2009 in favour of GAPI in which GAPI have taken ownership of the entire property. This includes the five houses and one half finished house around the Tofinho Monument as well as the thatched property at the top of the hill in Tofinho, which is clearly visible when driving into Tofo from Inhambane, this property was once a resturant owned by Omar Cabir who is Sulemane Cabir's brother. Omar Cabir informed us that he had allowed Sulemane Cabir to use Omar Cabir's property as collateral to obtain the loan from GAPI. It appears Omar Cabir lost his property as well due to Sulemane Cabir's non payment of the loan.
• Barra Beach - there are a number of properties in the Barra Beach area for which Sulemane I.H. Cabir has Title Deeds which, according to the Municipal Inhambane, the DUAT's have been revoked.

Other area's in Mozambique Sulemane Cabir mentioned he had property:-

• Pomene
• Quissico
• Maputo - this was a house which, according to Omar Cabir, was ceeded due to Sulemane Cabir's non-payment of a loan by a friend in 2007.

Sulemane Cabir appears to be a friend and helpful in every way but Sulemane Cabir, in our experience, does not honour any of his dealings in any way. Besides our dealings with Sulemane I.H. Cabir on Parcel 189, Inhambane Sulemane Cabir was not honourable in other areas as well. In April 2007 Sulemane Cabir approached us to loan $10 000.00 as he had a financial crisis due to Omar Cabir not paying a loan. Sulemane Cabir undertook to pay us back our loan within 30 days as he was waiting for money from the UK for the sale of a house. In December 2007 Omar Cabir informed us that Sulemane Cabir had not been truthful regarding the reason for loaning money and Omar Cabir had not borrowed any money for which Sulemane Cabir had to pay. Omar Cabir advised us that Sulemane Cabir had borrowed money from a friend in Maputo and had put his house in Maputo up as collateral - this was the house Sulemane Cabir lost as he was unable to honour the total loan. We finally got our money back for this loan six months later after putting extreme pressure on Sulemane Cabir as he had put one of the properties on Parcel 215, Tofinho up as collateral for the loan.

To date, four years later, we do not have rights to the property on Parcel 189, Tofinho which was sold to us via a compra / venda agreement at the Conservatoria Inhambane by Sulemane I.H. Cabir.

We trusted Sulemane Cabir, who appears to be an honourable man. I feel it is my duty to help ensure that others are fore warned before dealing with Sulemane Cabir. I would hate to see anybody else go through what we have been through the last four years and for this reason I am making the information I have / information told to us by Sulemane Cabir and Omar Cabir available for anybody who searches the internet for Sulemane Ismael Hassane Cabir.

Our Gracious God has been good to us and we are recovering slowly but surely from our dealings with Sulemane I.H. Cabir. We are totally blessed.

Lord thank you for the amazing blessings You have bestowed upon us.

All Praise and Glory to Your Wonderful Name.

THE WHEEL TURNS

We were chatting yesterday and we ended up on the topic of “The Wheel Turns” - this is something that Barry so believes in and has always referred to “The Wheel Turning” – often together with the name of Sulemane I.H. Cabir.

One day at the end of 2007, while visiting with Omar Cabir, Barry explained the concept of “The WHEEL TURNS” to Omar Cabir (Omar Cabir being Portuguese and we being English) - Omar Cabir is Sulemane Cabir’s brother, both Omar Cabir and Sulemane Cabir owned property in Tofinho (Omar Cabir owned the big Thatched Disco / restaurant – I think it was call LIDO - at the top of the hill which is visible when coming into Tofo – it is actually quite a sad story for Omar Cabir). We met Sulemane Cabir through his brother Omar Cabir in 2006. It was like a light bulb turned on once Omar Cabir understood the concept of “The Wheel Turns”. Omar Cabir often used the phrase after that - especially in conversations about Sulemane Cabir.

Barry believes “The Wheel will Turn” for Sulemane Cabir. Barry truly believed Sulemane Cabir was a gentleman – what an honor to bestow on somebody and to view them in that light – but Sulemane Cabir turned out to be anything but a gentleman.

There was a comment placed on this Dealing with Sulemane Ismael Hassane Cabir blog on 19 March 2009 where the person shared something their family had experienced, as they termed it, “What goes around comes around” – this is what they said:-

I have read your story on your “dealingwithsulemanecabir” blog.

The only advice I can give you is based on something similar that happened in our family many years ago. I know it won’t change anything that you have faced but it does clearly display a Higher Power (God) who is “watching from a distance”.

There is a saying goes like this – “What goes around comes around” – and that is how the Higher Power “watches from a distance”.

I saw this first hand in a situation a family member of mine found themselves in. They were done in by a “con artist” of note and lost everything they had worked so hard to achieve through honest hard work and integrity their whole lives. The road for them was long and hard and they struggled to get back on their feet. By the grace of Jesus Christ they succeeded and thrived.

At the end of the day the “con artist” never did – he got the “other end of the stick” 10 fold.

Hang in there – someday this “con artist” will get his / her day – and when that day comes around there is nothing in this world that this he / she can do about it – it will be too late.

You on the other hand will prosper and grow.

I pray that all that God has to offer through Jesus Christ is bestowed on you.

The concept is the same as “The Wheel Turns” – and based on the experience of the Anonymous writer - Sulemane Cabir will experience the “What goes around comes around” concept.

Sulemane Cabir will continue to be subject to “The Wheel Turning” / the “What goes around comes around” / the “Every dog will have his day” / the “What you sow so you will reap” – basically KARMA - Call it what you like Sulemane Cabir is experiencing this first hand.

THE WORLD IS FULL OF TRICKERY

FAITH FOR DAILY LIVING – VOL 436 – JANUARY / FEBRUARY 2010

Tuesday 26^th January

THE WORLD IS FULL OF TRICKERY

“Don’t drag me away, Lord, with those cruel people, who speak kind words, while planning trouble”. PS 28:3 CEV

It is very easy for Christian believers to think that, because they tend to move in circles where there is a majority of upright people, then most people are honest and straightforward. If we do this then we are walking around with blinkers on. There are good, honest and upright people around. And not all of them are found in Christian circles. But there are deceptive and mischievous people as well.

The psalm-writer feared that, having lost contact with God, he had done something wrong and that God would punish him by sending him amongst two-faced and evil people. Few things are harder for a good and godly person than to have to deal with crooked people, especially those who are friendly to their faces but are all the while plotting mischief against the very people to whom they are being friendly.

It is one of the tough things that we have to face and deal with as and when it arises, and the Christian believer has to be careful not to be naïve about such things. Plenty of people are not sincere. Nor are they transparently honest. They are out for what they consider to be their own good. Christians need to be wary of them and to counter their deceitfulness with honesty and truth even if this means confronting them with evidence of their false appearances. Jesus warned his disciples, “I am sending you out like sheep to a pack of wolves. You must be as cautious as snakes and as gentle as doves” (Matt 10:16 GNB)

PRAYER THOUGHT

Lord, help me to be careful not to get caught out by trickery and deception.

When Barry opened my Faith for Daily Living for the first time this was the page it opened to - he called me and said - "read this - it is about Sulemane Cabir". That was my thought when I read this on 26 January 2010 - I also thought Lord this is about Sulemane Cabir.

Unfortunately for us we did get caught out by the trickery and deception of Sulemane I.H. Cabir.

Lord You are all knowing and You were there with all our dealings with Sulemane Cabir, each and every conversation - You are the Truth, the Way and the Life - we praise Your Holy Name.
