Unfortunately this ad from the South African fast food chain Nando is now banned:
Nando’s South Africa decided to axe its commercial after Mugabe loyalists from the Chipangano group had called for a boycott and other unspecified punitive action against the company.
“We condemn such adverts because it reduces our president to be someone without values,” Chipangano leader Jimmy Kunaka told the BBC’s Brian Hungwe earlier this week.
Hmmm…. I thought his corrupt rule had done that….
