Nando’s Pokes Fun At People Grooving To The Mandoza Song [VIDEO]
02 Oct 2012 by Steyn du Toit / No Comments
Last month we shared with you the first video in the Nando’s “25 Reasons Why South Africa Is Awesome” campaign. It was dedicated to South Africa’s car guards. Their new advert, however, is even more endearing: it celebrates all those people temporarily turning into Zula warriors when they hear Mandoza’s “Nkalakatha”.

Nando’s Does Not Want To Advertise On DStv
25 Jun 2012 by Steyn du Toit / No Comments
DStv has recently graciously lifted its self-imposed suspension of Nando’s “Diversity” anti-xenophobia ad. But it seems this incredibly generous move by DStv has gone unappreciated by Nando’s. The restaurant-chain says it won’t be spending any money to have that advert flighted on DStv.

Khoisan Propose New Name For Cape Town – Nando’s Jumps On Board
25 Jun 2012 by Simon Gerber / 3 Comments
After Nando’s brought to everyone’s attention that the Khoisan are the only true inhabitants of South Africa, this seems appropriate. The suggestion of a new name for Cape Town comes after the memorial service of Khoisan traditional leader, Dawid Kruiper, who passed away earlier this month.

20 Jun 2012 by Steyn du Toit / 4 Comments
Not one of South Africa’s TV channels have had the balls to show the new Nando’s TV advert. So TopTV has decided to step up and teach the rest a lesson in freedom of speech. They say it should be up to the public to choose whether or not they want to watch it.

EXCLUSIVE: Yesterday’s Nando’s Advert
11 Jun 2012 by Bearded Wiseman / No Comments
Yesterday, Nando’s made a decision to hit back at our nation’s broadcasters. They published a summary of their pro-diversity advert in the Sunday papers in response to the SABC, DSTV, M-Net and e.tv banning the advert.
They say: “They’ve made the decision for you. Unlike our broadcasters, we’re giving you the right to choose.”
That’s how we feel too, because nobody should treat you like a child.

Nando’s Predicts Julius Malema’s Fate Three Months Before The Fact
01 Mar 2012 by Steyn du Toit / No Comments
Last night saw the expulsion of Julius Malema, along with some of his brothers-in-arms, from the ANC. Now might be a good time to sit back and reflect on this prophetic Nando’s poster, released in November last year, that now rings truer than ever. The headline reads: “Juju, you’ve been served.” While the body copy [...]

Schools Set To Axe Zulu And Xhosa – Nandos Strikes Back
25 Jan 2012 by silverstreak / No Comments
You may have heard recently that former Model C schools – with English as the medium of instruction – may be scrapping African languages. Naturally, Nandos had something to say about this malarky. The headline reads: “Respect your (mother) tongue” While the body copy reads: “Give it a taste of our delicious Peri-Peri, flame-grilled chicken.” [...]

Nando’s Releases ‘Last Dictator’ Commercial, Feat. Mugabe, Gaddafi And Hussein
24 Nov 2011 by Seth Rotherham / 5 Comments
I was a big fan of the Vodacom ad some time ago, which featured the African-dictator-type character, laughing as he abuses his power, repeatedly delivering the catchphrase “We’ve been having it!” The central idea of Nando’s festive season campaign follows that trend and revolves around a Robert Mugabe lookalike, as he reminisces about the good [...]

Nando’s Is Hiring
30 Mar 2011 by Bearded Wiseman / 2 Comments
Always picking up on the nation’s mood, the best in the business have been at it again. There isn’t really much need in beating around the bush with this one. The bushes, quite frankly, aren’t there to be beaten around any more. They have withered and dried.

Nando’s Punishes Cell C With 5G Chicken
27 Nov 2010 by Seth Rotherham / 2 Comments
Nando’s have taken things to the next level this time, with the appointment of their new “CEO.” His name is Kagiso and the whole ad rips off every ounce of the Trevor Noah Cell C ads. They mention 5G (rather than Cell C’s claimed 4G) and they even play with the Cell C ‘logo’ at the end. Full marks!
