Sebanyane started in his new position on 24 February, and is already getting into the swing of things. He previously worked at the Bekkersdal Police Station, as the fleet manager, and then moved on to work in the Customer Care Centre at the Westonaria Police Station.
When the position of spokesperson fell vacant, he applied, and landed the post. He is very excited about it. “There are still lots of new things to get used to, but I am enjoying it thus far,” he said.
Sebanyane said, about the crime in the area, that on his first day as spokesperson there were two hijackings on the N12. ” Hijacking on that road is a big problem in our area, and it is very worrying,” he said.

He also said that housebreakings are on the increase in Westonaria and Glenharvie. Common robbery is the biggest problem in Hillshaven at the moment.
The Herald looks forward to working with Sebanyane, and will keep residents well informed of what is happening around them.
