DataMustFall 'The ANC believes that mobile operators can do more for the poorer consumers in the prepaid service market to give consumers much-needed relief.'

The governing party said the findings were in part influenced by its submissions to an inquiry into the costs of data as a"strong campaigner for the #DataMustFall" movement.

"The ANC also urges entities such as Icasa to take on board the findings of the Competition Commission and urgently take steps to ensure greater price transparency and price-based competition is enhanced, as recommended in the report," ANC spokesman Pule Mabe said.
