As far as banned South African advertisements go, Nandos has always been way ahead of the pack. This fast food chain that serves the best of Portuguese styled chicken has always been at the forefront of political advertisements. Type “Nandos Banned adverts” into the YouTube search bar and you’ll have your pick-and-choose of adverts banned due to the Political Incorrectness.
And I love it! I think Nandos and their head of advertising should be our next leading political party! Okay, well, maybe not! But they really are brilliant and deserve a huge round of applause.
Lately they have been in the news even more so however due to their latest Xenophobic Advertisement titled Diversity. It deals with the rich diversity and culture found in South Africa and how only true South Africans will embrace this diversity.
And yet, it has been banned??? I think that it has a fairly positive message that all South Africans should agree on. However do to politics and the fact that the media is now so highly censored it has been removed.
Its fine though, because it won’t be long before the government kicks out another reason for us to laugh at them and Nandos can make a new ad. Until then, have a look at the latest one.
