Soshanguve space muffins: GP DoE asks community help to keep drugs from schools

TSHWANE - The Gauteng Department of Education said it needs communities to work with them to keep drugs away from schools.

It is alleged that two men were selling the so-called space muffins outside the school premises in a buy-one-and-get-one-free deal. “We are not in the community, as the department, we are in the school, but we have launched a safety plan, which is going to assist us in enforcing safety in the school premises. Outside we are compromised if the community doesn’t play a significant role.”The parents said the courts need to make an example of the men who gave the children space muffins.

“We want to set an example in South Africa. Our children are not a brewing ground for drugs – they are innocent.”
