Chairperson, I hereby give notice that on the next sitting day of the Council I shall move on behalf of the ANC:
That the Council -
1) notes that a school principal at the Ntji Mothapo Primary School in Ga-Mothapo - Magowa village in Limpopo is being investigated for allegedly not reporting cases of sexual abuse at his school, where it is alleged that a security guard at the school had sodomised at least 11 boys aged between 9 and 11 years over a period of 10 months;
2) further notes that the guard is currently on the run and that a case of sexual abuse was laid against him, by members of the school governing body only on Friday, 5 August; and
3) takes this opportunity to call on the provincial MEC for education, Mr Namane Masemola, to investigate this matter and the MEC for safety, security and liaison, Mr M G Phadagi, to rally all law enforcement agencies to ensure that the security guard is brought to justice and to face the full might of the law.
