Gauteng education department says 'Dr Matthew' Lani' was referred to special needs high school

In another story, Briefly News reported that the Gauteng Department of Education (GDE) has revealed that Matthew Lani, the bogus TikTok doctor, is not a high school graduate, let alone a 24-year-old doctor, as he led his followers to believe.

It turns out there's zilch evidence of Lani ever completing matric. Steve Mabona, the spokesperson for GDE, spilled the beans on Lani's educational journey.

Mabona said Lani started school in 2007 when he enrolled at Bordeaux Primary School in Randburg. But here's the twist, Mabona added that he struggled academically, so they decided to refer him to a special needs school.
