Brilliant – satire has a very important place in our democracy – the ANCYL should lighten up

XTREME

Your last minute electioneering serves no purpose 2/3rds in your face..TAKE THAT

concerned

shame on you Zuma. Shame on you ANC. Shame on you South Africa.

It’s a brilliant ad – and you woke up too late. When the election is over, the ad will be gone, and we will all have laughed long and loud at the fabulous portrayal of the ANC’s “decoy”, who was so busy being a decoy that he didn’t get to watch TV…

Krabbe

Satire – democracy = simbiosis

ANCYL : relax your mind.
The reaction is absolutely embarrassing & ridiculous

OPENMIC

The best part of the advert is right at the end, when the puppet’s eyes look upwards towards the puppet-master. Priceless.

SAAN

to label the ad as racist it has to be demeaning to all black people… guess what the ad is all about Malema, as a black man, i am not offended one bit… the jokes is on you malema

Ben Wulfsohn

Excellent political satire that probably offends the “holy cows”, so what else is new!

Porcupine_Quill

Guaranteed this Village Idiot tries to “Do a Zuma” and sue someone for this VERY ACCURATE AND TRUTHFUL REPRESENTATION OF IDIOCY.

All Hail and bow before the President Peri Peri Burned out Chicken Wing.

(the eyes slyly looking to Master are indeed PRICELESS!!!)

Jenny

Does Malema not wonder why he is constantly ridiculed anyway?

fuzile

julius so many people envy you. the best they can do is to try and ridicule you., nandos strategist is not foolish.

KD

“racist” go back to school and learn the meaning of the word and while you at it learn a few new words to better describe what it is you really want to say .. and not use the “racist” card. All it says to me is that you are not educated.
oh and I am black.
you politicians are not god! take a joke without making yourself look stupid!!

oldlefty

what is the problem ? it’s a great ad. good work nandos, as usual.

ancyl demonstrating their ignorance and immaturity.

Dino

Good advert, as you’d expect from Nandos- a bit of controversy. The ANCYL should not take it too hard, it’s a joke and satire is an importan, vital indication of a thriving, pluralist, freedom of speech democracy.
Besides… the biggest parody of Malema is Malema.

TS

The ad. is trying to discourage our future leader. Malema is one of the unique. he is strong. He stand the hit. The ad. is a desgrace. Shame on you Nandos

Sam

Excellent by nandos time for the ANCYL to grow the is nothing wrong about the ad the problem is the arrogamnce and idiocy shown by the
Stupid YL.

Thomas C Kantha

We are not living in the Apartheid era Mr.Malema. Fifteen years ago I put away my race card and voted for freedom of
speech. Sometimes humour is a good medicine for the problems facing South Africa.
Do not abuse your powers Mr. Malema .
Now Nandos you are in the wrong to. That is not Mr. Malema but he was used for your CM.
Now let us move on with a little better understanding about race realtionship.

Monwabisi Julius

This is one of the best advert i have ever seen, now all Nandos need to do is to offer a special mega burger and name Malema Mega Burger

DC

Clever advert – Nandos will sell more chicken regardless and the negative response by the ANCYL will make the ad even more popular. They should respond rather with a deep laugh and say: “Write me up or write me down – but write me!”

Thabo

This is a very good ad, immediately after I saw it I ran to my nearest Nandos and paid with a R100 note and received more change then I paid for the meal. So i don’t see what’s the issue here Julius, you should be happy at least this time around people are listening to you. If you ask me Julius should thank Nandos.

Kickass

Hi Julius…..who’s your daddy???

Lungi

I do not have a problem with freedom of speech, what I do have a problem with, is people like KD. I hope you really are black, because I do not believe in wasting effort responding to white people’s comments, anything negative about us is good to white people, (divide and rule). The problem with people like you, is, as soon as you get a little education, you feel you have to be above the rest of the blacks. People need to be proud of themselves, never detest yourselves vicariously through others, love yourselves the way you are.

Sipho

Bloody stinking chicken company has ran out of marketing and advertizing budget.

fana

I feel this ad potray Malema as foolish person ,more so it sends negative message that a black man cannot think ,it also gives anc a bad image .I view this ad as part of election campaign by nandos check the timing of the ad.

hapi_cdn

I heard about this advert and had to look it up. I think its hilarious and well done. Timing is suspect but hey, Nandos is a business like any other and marketing is kinda important, no? Yeah, my heart goes out to poor Big Mouth Malema. A gentleman would ignore and focus on something a little more important like say… umm… POLITICS??! In the meanwhile, I’ll take 2 Malema Mega Burgers to go.

Muzi

This ad is very good. I told my kid that this ad shows that even if U take the shortest route (taking subjects like woodwork) you`ll become the laughing stock of those who are educated. Nando`s keep up the good work and the ANCYL should be aware : more ads on Malema are coming.

LinuxRules

Brilliant advert.

Nando’s will get MORE mileage out of this advert’s negative response by the ANCYL than if the ANCYL had just shut up about it.

Refer to the blind person advert where the dog deviates. Nando’s scored more on the responses than anyone could have imagined.

People will be talking about this for weeks or months to come.

nands

guys this is not about politics, the advert that is. why is that everything has to be politically correct, it’s just an ad a stupid ad. so what they used Julius how many Julius’s do you know, who says that is Malema they did not use his surname. and guys 15 years down the line we can not tolerate each other regardless of colour ? come on then why did Madiba go to jail for? the so called white people oppressed us let us not do the same, like Dr King in the US said let us fight with peace show them how stupid they are and we shall conquer.

XTREME

Jules has become an icon and he’s only been in national politics for about 10 months…This kid is marvelous.
Don’t be fooled by the mainstream ridicule propaganda bull, they’re just threatened by his influence and emergence. If you don’t believe he’s influential dare him to mobilise the youth against Nandos.

lucky nkosi

this is a good advert,you will get more profit

othaniel nkosi

you are so creative,keep it up.

Terri

This ad is not about black people not thinking for themselves – please lets not turn this into yet another racist issue. I think it is great – it is ripping off Malema who can shoot off his mouth to anyone but dare anyone retaliate and then freedom of speech no longer exists! Just shows what a small minded man he is. He can give but he cant take – if he had left it people would have laughed it off but he is making such a big deal about it Nandos is getting more publicity. Good on you guys – Definately dont “Chicken Out” Nando’s ROFL

Theguys

Do any of you ingrates comprehend the concept of marketing. Take a second to get that chip of your shoulder because of the colour of your skin. If you feel anything but contempt and pity for Julius Malema you are obviously as diluded and daft as the man himself. If he had to drop fromm his ego to his IQ , he would probably never stop falling.

rean

It such a shame that a good add like this must be removed due to threats of militant action. These ANCYL members really show their character with this.

CHARLENE

i think this ad has directed to malema because malema is the only politician. so guys let malema excise his rights let the nandos people be punished. why dont they their own names and pictures to make adverts

mako

i was waiting for this to happen, it just seems that every time there are one or two good ads, some people has to have a problem. just let the ad be, good job Nanodo’s

Zo

Wagaggagghhhhhhhhhhh, ts..ts…ts…

Ive got some questions

1. Who said that was Julius Malema
2.Does it mean he agrees that this Julius who is sellin Nandos here, looks like him.
3.What make this adverb sound so ugly

Pls Nandos people make ur advert with me, i dont care as long as u wil pay me something by using my image in selling ur meat.

Son the Zapiro cartoons wil be prohibited, watch the space.

Zo

sorry
advert……not adverb

Zo

soon … not son

ANCYL is untouchable...

whatever your future plans make sure you clear them with ANCYL first…otherwise there will be repercussions

simpra

Sorry, guys. I’m not political minded but I have a problem with the people that, whenever they want to make fun (esp.politically), they only do so at the expense of black people only (black culture, black political leaders etc).
Drive to work listening to the local radio station of which the listenership is predominantly white and all you will hear is jokes that comprise of what I mentioned above.
Why can’t these radio hosts as well as their comedians make fun of the white leader’s comments as well for once. Is it because their leaders are perfect or they are just biased.
I know we live in a democratic society but sometimes you just don’t expect these things on radios and televisions. Let these entities balance their scales of doing things.

jazoj

i love Nandos SO much, i’m going to get some chicken RIGHT NOW… =P

stef

LOL! this ads funny… not racist. in fact i think i would have laughed jst the same if the puppet was white!!!! life is so serious as it is, and laughter is the best medicine. I think we all need to make fun of ourselves once in a blue moon… good on u Nandos! :)

sm

Wow!! its amazing how much of thought went into every little detail in this advert…. absolutely brilliant advert Nando’s. and the ad isnt racist in my view it just portrays Malema as he is…… as one man who looks to his master and obeys orders and who will do anything for his cause!

Alan

These baboons like Malema and the rest in government make us laugh constantly. Dumb a$$es!!!!!
