I think the Aerial ad does it for me especially the guy’s use of 'hichi'. I still wonder why Nyambane went to do a Harpic ad and the way for ages guys have been complaining that they stop bringing those things when guys are eating supper,ama ni kusota?

Wee,akowally that Aerial Ad is cool...ama is it the guy who's cool:) I used to like the one for Omo where the boy runs after the Kuku...Until i noticed the first Kuku and the one the boy finally 'captures' are completely different. Yaani they couldnt find two Kukus that almost resemble?Bure kabisa! Worst ad: The Omo one where that 'mother in law' lady goes to people's houses! grrr...it's so unprofessionally done!!

For me it's the nakufeel ad. Esp. with kids around,it's embarrassing. I will praise thee,O Lord my God,with all my heart: And I will glorify thy name forever more. Psalms 86:12 If you have only one smile in you, give it to the people you love - Maya Angelou

leona, I don't mind the ad,it is just that someone mentioned that the word hichi irritates him and I ... caught the cold ... and also maybe you like the guy. But on the other side I think the equity's I am a member one is the best. You can tell by how many times that line has been used,even in sk. I hadn't noticed the kukus yeah...the mother in law one ... I usually change channels when it comes... @ jacy haiyayayayaaa ... I had forgotten that one ... that one takes the mantle for me too If you want anything to work,work it JOIN MY FREE MINI-COURSE FOR WRITERS. CLICK HERE

That sunlight advert...the salesman who goes to 'mrs Odhiambo to offer sunlight that ''wosess'' bright and soft.......He has a yellow shirt when he gets to the house.Pengine ni yeye Mr.Odhiambo coz when he's doing laundry (lady is cheeky,must admit),he has a different shirt...kwani alibadilishia wapi nguo??

@Jakom I love that sunlight ad! @Jacy Wah! Enyewe that one for nakufeel is on another level altogether. My 4yr old nephew has even formed a habit of hugging females and saying 'Nakufeel' hehehe!

sunlight...ad is boring.....The guy repeats himself alot ...inabore Na mimi ni member ...has become monotonous.....I just switch channels when it shows..... on the other hand, All safaricom ads are classy....the best was the maasai and the driver no. 1 in mara.... Rules of the game here: Before you post anything think.give facts only..It's a serious blog for serious people....Do not insult your brother....respect one another...Just be good.... It's good to live a honest life....life without guilt....

-SUNLIGHT!whats with the fake accent!very annoying!
-Then theres this soap one for a woman and her daughter and ends with the daughter asking if her skin will be as beautiful as her mums.kwani what are they implying?that the dark skinned daughter wants to have a light skin like her mum!?surely!
-then on radio!the annoying OMO haki yetu ad!surely!whats with the riotous children!
clearly kenyan kids are being taught to prefer light skin to dark skin,and to demand things in a wayward manner!
whatever happened to the well mannered kids on ads!
Fill what's empty,empty what's full,and scratch where it itches!

I hate the Omo theme of 'Dirt is good' Who told them that we stop our children from playing with dirt because washing clothes is difficult? Such warped thinking!!! @Noble; the ad you refer to is not Omo,it's Protex or Detol....some medicated soap anyway....and that means it's a bad ad if the audience cannot remember what it is advertsing......you say Omo,I say Protex or Detol. Behind the gardens...Behind the wall...Under the tree (Including: Red...Dark Blue...Yellow) Nothing is real unless it can be named; nothing has value unless it can be sold; money is worthless unless you spend it.

@Mwezi* Now,that reminds me...there's one that takes the prize as far as bad mannered kids are concerned,one for a certain bread(i think Kingsmall or something)..the kid ati refuses to eat bread and makes faces at his mom......whaat?i hope no kid in real life has tried that at home!

@Mukiha
Thanks. I cant tell what it is.
I dont want my boy to see it so i switch channels every time i see it. The problem is that i am rarely in the house early,meaning he always watch it when am not around.
