***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.
ITEM: www.GhanaHero.com fully
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...
