Nandos SA Distances Itself From Circulating Fake Ads
Nandos SA Distances Itself From Circulating Fake Ads. When it comes to creative adverts, they are a few steps ahead of their peers. Nandos SA always come through with relatable ads, mostly based on what is trending at the moment. When it comes to advertising though, brands know better, not to step on other people’s toes as they put their products and services out there.
Nandos, knows this too, and they try by all means to stay away from controversy. Having noted that, there are some tweets pretending to be associated with Nandos, with distasteful ads. Case in point, are the currently trending ads, that seem to poke at Bishop I Makamu.
The television host, church leader and businessman is in deep trouble after a recording of him asking for sexual favors emerged. On the viral audio clip, there is a voice of a man that many have concluded is of Bishop Makamu. The man seems like he is asking a church congregant for a sexual favor. After the lady gave him her physical address, the man wanted reassurance that no one will see him, and that the lady was alone. He repeatedly asks her if she “will give him,” and the woman giggles whilst maintaining her decision of not giving him what he is asking for.
Because of this, Makamu has stepped down from Moja Love TV channel, pending investigations. As expected he is now trending on social media with the most hilarious memes. There are also some ads, which look like they come from Nandos, making fun of the situation. One tweep even said that Nandos is bravery personified. The chicken franchise, has however, distanced themselves from those ads.
“Whilst we value the enthusiasm of fans for our brand, we don’t appreciate the production of these fake ads. This is in bad taste and is in no way aligned with our brand or values. And remember, if it’s not on our page, it’s not ours. @NandosSA is our official page,” Nandos said.
