Nando's gone all political...

I came across this advert today from Nando's in which I find quite amusing. Take a look..




It has caused quite a stir in Zimbabwe with the millitants sending death threats to the Nando's customers and stuff!! Since then, Nando's has had to pull the ad and they said in a statement;

"Nando’s South Africa takes these threats very seriously and will regrettably no longer flight the TV commercial."


"We feel strongly that this is the prudent step to take in a volatile climate and believe that no TV commercial is worth risking the safety of Nando’s staff and customers."


Even though I find this advert very funny, it just shows that you've always got to be careful what you do and how you produce it! It's always a shame for companies to scrap ads as a lot of time and money goes into producing them. Oh well, it least its become a viral hit for them!
