Sometime last week, one of Nigeria's biggest fast food restaurants tweeted this ad on their official twitter page; "Why eat your words when you can eat our meals" and "Special delivery for Olisa" with an EFCC logo on the ad, which is in reference to reports that PDP Spokesman Olisa Metuh allegedly ate or tried to eat a document containing statements he made to the EFCC so it won't be used as evidence against him in court which Metuh has since denied he did. But that didn't stop Chicken Republic from latching on the controversy and using it as a publicity stunt for their brand.
Nigerians who found the ad distasteful came for Chicken Republic on social media...some are even calling for a boycott. See some tweets after the cut and tell us what you think of it all...

DeleteI will continue to patronise chicken republic till i die
DeleteFrom the tweets i noticed that a lot of Yoruba people were against the ad. If a Yoruba man had been the butt of the joke, a lot of Igbos (Linda inclusive) would have been celebrating the ad. The ad is actually a creative piece. Please the Igbos should get over themselves and stop being touchy and overly sensitive whenever mention is made of an Igbo man, woman or issue, loosen up.
DeleteChicken rebublic or chicken nation. You no do well.Lassa dey chicken rebublic confirm. Go eat there you confirmed dead. Lol

DeleteThat makes u uneducated, is it not obvious that metuh is been victimized. It shows the kind of democracy apc is running.
DeleteHow? I don't usually respond 2 anonymous comments but I owe it a point of duty as a gd citizen with the fear of God. He was alleged 2 av collected 400m which he dint deny.infact he said it Ws 4 an assignment. Pls wat kinda assignment is dat. Pls search urself n tell me if some1 embezzled ur parents funds like dis ll u support him/her?. Pls let's b realistic. Don't get me wrng I'm not saying he's guilty yet but there re allegations n he MUST prove his innocence but let's enjoy d fun while it lasts so as 2 deter future or intending looters.
DeleteU are a big fool.hes alleged to have collected 400 million naira from dasuki which is presently before an honorable court with competent jurisdiction.no right thinking person should make an idotic comment on a matter that's before the court.Chicken republic messed up big time.
DeleteWhy do we ethnicizw corruption?a bad pot holes doesn't know the occcupanat of the vehicle nor hiss tribe or creed.An IED doesn't even know it's maker talkless of others.the actions of olisa metuh and co has brought national disgrace and she be deplored by all sentiments apart.lets shame all enemies of the masses through whatever means,i say thumbs up chicken republic
DeleteDon't see it as a big deal tho
ReplyDeleteLol not cool tho
ReplyDeleteThis cud be a brand killer, merchants/investors don't venture into political matters as tables can get turned anytime. But since Nigerians are divided along party line, the aggrieved side will be more pained.
ReplyDeleteIf he's guilty, I don't see why people should think less of Chicken Republic, after all the Metuhs of our world have been eating out commonwealth since time immemorial and we have been singing thier praises. Many of us still see them as victimized or being witch hunted, SMH.
I wonder if we would ever learn.
Make una gerara here jooh, looters deserve more embarrassment to send a strong signal to others. All this rants are from pdp.
ReplyDeleteDoes accusing someone make the person guilty allow the court to say he is a looser.....so shall every false accusations against u in this life be implied true without any defence in Jesus name amen
DeleteI don't even have a degree or diploma in advertising or public relations but I know that running this Ad was a terrible idea...
ReplyDeleteI SEE CHICKEN REPUBLIC HAVING SERIOUS PROBLEM IN THE FUTURE FOR THIS SILLY ACT,BECOS IF PDP SHOULD TAKE OVER GOVERNMENT SOMEDAY,IT WILL BE OVER FOR DEM.OMALICHA LI

ReplyDeleteDis is see finish ...
ReplyDeleteI am a full time card carrying member of the APC who believes in doing what is right and I strongly believe that this ad is SO SO WRONG. Chicken Republic better apologises to Olisa before the courts come after them. APC is the party to beat any day.
ReplyDeleteDid they apologize to APC when they made similar cartoon , calling out the APC. Ur claim of being a card carrying member is false and pretentious.
DeleteIf it was a man from another tribe, it would have been a hit on Lib. Why are igbo people feeling so insecure???
ReplyDeleteAPC will pay 4 everything they are doing...why running a country with hatred 4 d opposition party...is really insane
ReplyDeleteI am even surprised that chicken Republic is still making some noise.i had rather buy roundabout from mama put than buy chicken from chicken republic where the chicken is tasteless and could even be stale due to low patronage.As for the advert, it is only seeking a cheap popularity.Soon it will become an ant republic.
ReplyDeleteChicken Republic serve bird-flu chickens.
ReplyDeleteY na chicken republic. It's nt gud 2 ridicule any1 especially wen d person is facin problem
ReplyDeleteWen he was bizi eatin d moni who him help, if he liks he should eat shit and die slow

Extreme stupidity on the part of chicken republic. This is what the bible calls running out in the streets and grabbing a stray dog by the tail.
ReplyDeleteMetuh isn't too big to be cartooned with, its just the brand that's isn't right. Meaning if it came from other source other than a company it better. Very soon Metuh will sue them to court cos he's desperately in need of bail money. Chicken republic expect court invitation from Metuh's legal crew.

ReplyDeleteHey, a name wasn't mentioned an image wasn't even shown. It's all in the head, court only works with valid and visible proof, not assumptions or imaginary theories
DeleteVery funny advert by chicken republic. Very silly reaction by mainly tribal jingoistic and true to type this is being instigated by Linda. I have been reading your blog for close to 2 years or more but I think you are increasing showing bias as I have observed that any thing that promotes PDP and miopic Igbo tribal interests gets you very excited and do you seek to influence public opinion on the issue. Stay neutral so you will not lose vital followership.
ReplyDeleteFunny and disrespectful...
ReplyDeleteall na publicity stunt to advertise their brand...

hahahahahahhahaha oshi on the xtreme order, lets see hw APC saves them from the foreseen condolences
ReplyDeleteThose who still support the PDP despite all the revelations of humongous corruption perpetrated under their government are people who have put politics and party affiliation above our national welbeing. Sometimes U hear them say things like the anti-graft war is selective or a witch-hunt. Rather than a national outrage we still have sympathizers of those that have rendered many pple orphans, widows, jobless. I can go on and on. This atitude itself is what is distasteful, not an ad from chicken republic. For such sympathizers, their calls for the FG to prosecute pple within the APC (even without any tangible evidence) is not for the zeal to eradicate corruption from our country, but they silently believe that in doing so, the APC will self destruct and thus an elimination of a government which they've always hated irrespective of any good thing it has to offer for the betterment of Nigeria. It's a pity they will carry on this hate until the end of this administration. And if this government delivers well at the end, then its haters will have to live in their self-inflicted emotional trauma for a loooong time.
ReplyDeleteI'll rather support a govt that's fighting corruption than the one that's accomodating corruption in order to gain the support of pple living directly or indirectly on the proceeds of corruption.
Chicken continent that should be their aim not meddling With state matters thanks a zillion
ReplyDeleteChicken continent that should be their aim not meddling With state matters thanks a zillion
ReplyDeleteOLISA DESERVES EVERY BIT OF DISGRACE HE GETS. I LIKE WHAT CHICKEN REPUBLIC DID TO HIM. YEYE TROLLS TALKING NONSENSE
ReplyDeleteNice one#Lindangwanu#
ReplyDeleteThis truly leaves a bad taste.they should tender an unreserved apology for this irresponsible tweet.
ReplyDeleteKFC did similar thing to Mourhino. Just before he lost his job at CFC. Abeg na their market they wan sell, them nor send Oliseh message, it's not a bad idea
ReplyDeleteYea ..they wanted it to sound funny..but behold it didn't. .so they had to remove it..finish
ReplyDeleteNo wonder there branch always close down and sale there building to individuals who use them for super market. Poisonous eatery. Never gonna see me they again.
ReplyDeleteLol.. Na wa oh
ReplyDeleteI can't eat in Chicken Republic again.. Afterall, they sell dead chicken
ReplyDeleteDough to me is not a good thing to meddle in politics.. but Naija no sabi joke if is not Bovi, Baskeetmouth or Akpos do the joke... na was ooo. Some are even pretending as if they patronize ChickenRepublic like that.... even some house wife way no fit cook dry talk.. wait and see when Ur husband now find out the taste of the chicken has change then you will know say@ChickenRepublic na baba... in Olamide voice
ReplyDeleteBut whoever handles that account is stupid. How is ds a thing of joke? Mtcheeewwwwwwwww... It's not even funny 1 bit!
ReplyDeleteYou see the ad was cool, besides a name wasn't mentioned. We need to start mocking this looters in any way possible, we ve to totally discourage it, seriously or jokingly. It happens in the American too, remember a doll was made of bill Clinton to mock the then ongoing sex scandal with Monica Lewinsky. Nigerians could be so satirical, only the corrupt minded people would boycott CR because an enemy of the state was mocked. Infact am eating there today.
ReplyDeleteIt's quite funny and a creative play on news in public domain.
ReplyDeleteReally funny but DUMB....
