The Malema vs Nandos saga continues! After the ANC Youth League had called for Malema’s Nandos ad to be taken off the air and Nandos had agreed to do so, we are now hearing that Nandos marketing manager, Sylvester Chauke, has decided Nandos will be airing a new Malema-related advert today (Friday). Chauke has said, “We agreed to address the youth league’s concerns and we will respond in a way that it is true to Nando’s.” One can only start to imagine what Nandos have up their sleeve now. I have a funny feeling the ANC Youth League is not going to be happy again with what we will see today, and this time it is really going to push them over the edge.

Is it wise for Nandos do be causing all this controversy? They are getting good publicity one must say and from a business marketing perspective that could be great for them. But at the same time the Youth League’s threats of militant action against Nandos should not go unnoticed.

I wonder if Malema himself will ever go and buy anything from a Nandos again?
