#PleasecallMeMovement: I am grateful for the public support, says Nkosana Makate | IOL NewsThe man credited with being the brains behind Vodacom's 'Please Call Me' message service, said he was grateful for the public support he has received. Who does the PleaseCallMe belong to as MTNza has the patent & not Vodacom it's a catch 22 situation. The R70 Billion that they're calling for is Ludicrous for NkosanaMakate no corporation will pay 📤 that amount. I will stay with Vodacom as it doesn't bother me. Wonder how grateful he'll be when they demand payment for that support! 😂 😂 😂 We must create Lets Boycott buying prepaid Vodacom airtime for 5 working days and all other services until they return to the negotiating table and compensate Makate fairly and accordingly. Vodacom Stop Bullying Makate

South African Union Calls for Eskom Strike During Elect...Workers at Eskom Holdings SOC Ltd. will strike during the week of scheduled elections in South Africa to protest the possible sale of shares and planned job cuts at the embattled state-owned power utility, according to a regional branch of the National Union of Mineworkers. Totally irresponsible and amounts to treason 👹👹👹 So they would have Eskom collapse and possibly lose more jobs? It is clear that Eskom cannot cope with doing generation, transmission,distribution and purchasing power. They should have protested when it was being looted...or they were receiving brown bags...?
