It seems that influencing is a business of who did it first rather than impact and influence as it has been thought of. This is as there has been a confusing narrative on social media that has started following two leading influencers sharing the same dealership.
A fact which should have been celebrated. But instead, social media turned the matter into such a negative that it resulted in one of the influencers not being able to celebrate their win on social media. Confused? Here is the story:
Pamela Mtanga’s new Merc overshadowed by Mihlali’s
Pamela Mtanga is one of the few young up-and-coming media personalities, hosts, and MCs that has received a co-sign from Bonang Matheba organically. However, Mtanga was also the last female presenter for the music show Massiv Music and has her own popular YouTube channel.
Recently, Mtanga took to social media to share her purchase which happened to be a Mercedes Benz C-Class Coupe. Initially, there was a celebration on the matter. However, that was until social media realised that she had purchased her car from EB Motors.
Congratulations to Pam on her new set of Merc wheels. It definitely doesn’t get any better than this pic.twitter.com/IbJr2Ss69n

After the realisation, Pamela was accused of copying Mihlali Ndamase. Why? Well, as reported before:
Last night Ndamase brought the Twitter timeline to a standstill after sharing the news of her new purchase. Currently, Mercedes Benz is trending and all thanks to Ndamase after flaunting her new car yesterday, a beautiful black Mercedes-Benz 400d 4Matic SUV.
To perfectly accompany her post of the new car, Ndamase conveyed her gratitude to the Almighty, with quoting a line from Tasha Cobbs-Leonard and Nicki Minaj's hit song, I'm getting Ready.
"I don't gotta talk, the Lord defends me. Thank you God for blessing the work of my hands, welcome home Mamba. Hard work pays off," wrote Mihali Ndamase.
Must the questionable sources of income lol and BMW/merc won’t allow that or Banks won’t approve or Finance them, but the “Particular dealerships” work around it with a hope they get the car back in a year or so lol 👀😏🤢🤧😂😂 I might be wrong in all of this pic.twitter.com/FVFgIJW7mI

Mihlali explained ke sana. Its the one easy one for Influencers/Personalities/Creatives because of the non “fixed” monthly payments they get https://t.co/h6Y4ayig6h
So everyone in the quotes, yall were not expecting EB Motors to attract other customers after Mihlali's drop? I mean she is an influencer after all. She influences people for a living😂. https://t.co/EpFK4SscNO
It seems that Mtanga was not interested in fueling the ongoing conversation on social media. This is as it seems that she has since deleted the post on all her social media platforms. Moreover, she has deleted any of the comments which had congratulated her on her luxury car purchase…
