This follows Hofmeyr posting a video on Facebook of him driving over his DStv decoder and throwing the dish off his roof in protest against the satellite television company’s decision to ban his content from all of its platforms.Image result for facebook

Hofmeyr says in Afrikaans: “Yes, you can’t boycott everything and everyone, but I’m going to try. I’m done with MultiChoice, all their channels, including kykNET and Showmax, as well as Media24 and a few others that I will name later.Image result for steve hofmeyr dstv

Get WiFi, Android TV, or many other pay-to-watch platforms. We will see the downfall of MultiChoice in our lifetime. I arranged a special funeral for my dish. After that, I consider the dozens [of] cheaper options. The best I can do is to ask you to do the same. Not for me. But to save money.”Image result for steve hofmeyr dstv

Not only did Hofmeyr ask his fans to do the same, but he also gave anyone who does the same a chance to win a R10,000 prize.Related image
