Support grows for 'Please Call Me' inventor as call to shut down Vodacom gains momentum

Bring it on ⁦@Vodacom⁩ ! I am NOT easily intimidated. You can’t bully me or silence my support to the weak and vulnerable. This is a democratic country and I have the right to express my views without fear. The apartheid regime detained me without trial . I am not scared! pic.twitter.com/E62GnxFiJ8

It’s game on ⁦@Vodacom⁩, thank you so much #Please Call Movement for the endorsement of the 10am, 31st January 2019 deadline for #VodaPayHim. We must stand against commercial injustices. Banks and restaurants should be next. Our freedom was not free! pic.twitter.com/dhSzOxT1P4

@Vodacom You guys are trash. Both for your exorbitant fees and for trying to take advantage of #NkosanaMakate . I know that the reader is only a community manager but use this Tweet as part of your case study as to why Vodacom lost subscribers. You are filth

Vodacom must pay Nkosana Makate for #PleaseCallMe idea. Corporate bullies acting above the law like Vodacom must fall!

We will do to @Vodacom what we did to @Momentum_za Nkosana Makate

@Vodacom you are not even aware of the PR nightmare you are creating for your self. How hard is it to pay Nkosana for his invention. You are out there hiring lawyers to intimidate people. Julle moet net betal!!! Finish and Klaar "Nkosana Makate" #PleaseCallMe

When your impact is felt and they try to intimidate you. Political parties must actually take a stand. The ANC Gauteng and national must back up their provincial chair and stop being cowards that they've been since 1952*,#NkosanaMakate https://t.co/lgsqdJpOuX

The arrogance of @Vodacom! We must not permit them to bully black people because they have monopoly. This racist company must be shutdown for refusing to pay the money due to Nkosana Makate. #VodacomPayMakate #VodaPayHim
