ANC CONDEMNS FNB ADVERTISEMENT
The African National Congress (ANC) is appalled by First National Bank (FNB) ‘advertisements' in which the ANC, its leadership and government, is under attack on an commercial masqueraded as youth views.
What is of concern to the ANC is that the advert content is undisguised political statement that makes random and untested accusations against our government in the name of discourse.
FNB must desist from using school kids to make political statements in a manner that is disrespectful to elders and that disregard sacrifices made in the 18 year of democratic government, to improving the living conditions of those who were on the receiving end of apartheid rule.
While we believe that people are entitled to their views, we don't accept that young kids should be used as proxies to articulate political views espoused as in the case of the FNB advertisement.
