SEDIBENG. – Gauteng Education MEC Matome Chiloane would also like to warn the public of a man that has been seen travelling with two children, moving from one ECD centre to another, posing as a parent looking for placement.

It is alleged that this man proceeds to rob ECD staff of their cellphones and valuables whilst pretending to apply for the children he is with.  The suspect is alleged to have robbed at centres in Daveyton (Ekurhuleni) and parts of Sedibeng.

He is said to drive a red Toyota Etios with the registration number FZ19LV GP.

“We urge the public, and ECD Centres, to be vigilant and report this individual to the law enforcement agencies for necessary action,” the Gauteng Department of Education said.
