Nkosana Makate unfazed by Black Rock's 40% claim on multi-million settlement
The Star
|November 12, 2025
NKOSANA Makate, the inventor behind Vodacom's iconic "Please Call Me" service, remains unfazed by recent claims from Black Rock Mining asserting entitlement to 40% of his multimillion-rand settlement with Vodacom.
Black Rock Mining, however, had previously withdrawn its claim in 2024 and maintains that it never funded Makate's legal battles. Speaking to IOL yesterday, Makate expressed his surprise at the renewed media claims.
"I have not received any summons nor any indication that they will approach the courts after they had dropped their claim from the High Court last year," he told the publication.
"I'm not bothered by these assertions, and I'm unsure why the company would now claim entitlement when it had already given up in court. This is nothing but extortion"
He added that his attorneys would communicate any further developments as necessary.

Hope and trust keep South Africans together
IF IT WERE true that politicians without exception are corrupt; that by far most municipalities are incompetent and fail; that the series of Commissions to investigate fraud is a farce and the billions lost will never be retrieved, how do South Africans remain hopeful and forge ahead to pay their taxes and eke out a living?
