In 2017 Nyimpini Mabunda, chief office of Vodacom’s consumer business unit, said as he was introducing Vodacom, Facebook Flex customers ,which will no longer be used to access Facebook free mode.
“Network operators like ourselves have a role to play in reducing the digital divide, particularly between those in urban and rural areas,” he said.
