Since message_follower_ids contain the mail.follower objects' ids, and not the partner_ids themselves, you need a method to add the follower(s). Something like this:

def add_follower_id(self, res_id, partner_id, model):
    followers_obj = self.env['mail.followers']
    follower_id = False
    reg = {
        'res_id': res_id,
        'res_model': model,
        'partner_id': partner_id, }
    try:
        follower_id = followers_obj.create(reg)
    except:
        _logger.info(u'AddFollower: follower already exists')
    return follower_id

where res_id is the id of your object model is the model of your object ('crm.lead' for example). and partner_id is the id of the partner who is going to be the follower (not de object, but the id instead). If you pass the object you will get a "can't adapt type" exception.

Perhaps there is a better solution, (a previous existing method to do this) but I did not find it, and this worked for me.

For each Employee, Related User will be there. For each Related User, Partner shall be Created and Once you assign a Ticket to an Employee, immediately he will be added as Follower. if its not adding then, you can add like this,

self.write(cr, uid, ids, {'message_follower_ids':[(4, partner_id)]})
