GovChat's been granted interim relief against removal from Whatsapp. Facebook's strategy is not new says GovChat's Eldrin Jordaan.
Local tech start-up GovChat has been granted interim relief by the Competition Tribunal against WhatsApp and Facebook, stopping its removal from the WhatsApp platform for a period of six months.
GovChat allows citizens to access a variety of South Africa's government services through its WhatsApp Business profile.
In turn, GovChat says Facebook wants to deal directly with the government to offer similar services itself.
