***Cadbury Protest Video -
View it Here!!!!!
Cadbury Chocolate company
simpletons Mr. Tim Bishop, Mr. Phil
Rumbol, and Mr. Paul Epworth want to
tell us the "Tribal Head" gorilla video is
not disrespetful of Ghanaians and
Africans. We disagree. We reject their
attempt to define what is culturally
acceptable to Ghanaian nationals. By
that ad, Cadbury is saying Gorrillas and
Ghanaians / Africans have the same
personality. The "advert" is a cheap,
thrashy video. Ghanaians do not have
to allow themselves and their "culture"
to be degraded just so Cadbury can
"go Fair Trade."
We are confident that the UK-based
Advertising Standards Authority (ASA)
will agree with us after they've had a
chance to review the video and our
case in opposition. Prof Lungu is saying
that Cadbury ought to have known
better.
The ASA ought to ask why a product
produced in the Ghanaian hinterlands,
sold on the global marketplace, brings in
billions of dollars to Cadbury, is
promoted entirely using filthy, thrashy
and dilapidated scenery, cheap video
theatrics, and a buffoon of a gorilla
African "Tribal Head," in a video shot
entirely in a village.
The ASA ought to ask if that video will
compel Cadbury employees, Ghanaian
nationals, and others, on a good family
day or outing, to sit down around a nice
fire, to enjoy "Cadbury chocolate." Will
they do it with their spouses, children,
and friends, as they watch that video?
More important, that despicable video
does not promote Ghana. It will not
compel people to tour Ghana. It is fair to
say that in 2009, that racist video will
never be sponsored by an
American-based company with national
reputation, less a global conglomerate.

supports Mr. Nii Armah Akomfrah, UK
branch of the Convention People's
Party, (CPP) and Mr. Toyin Agbetu, of
Ligali for their stance on the issue in the
United Kingdom.
It is bigotry, arrogance & racism!
Bishop, Rumbol, and Epworth are selling
bigotry. (Please read the 11 Oct 09
piece, "Cadbury accused of racial
stereotyping in chocolate advert:
Viewers complain about another
campaign two years after the firm's
ill-fated Trident commercial," by Ms.
Emily Dugan, with the UK-based The
Independent...
