GODD DAY SIR,
ReplyDeleteTHE ADVERTISING PRACTITIONERS FORUM KANO WISH TO BRING TO YOUR KNOWLEDGE THAT WE OBSERVED THE AIRING OF SOME COMMERCIAL JINGLES ON SOME RADIO STATIONS WITHIN KANO WHICH WE BELIEVED MAY NOT HAVE PASSED THROUGH THE VETTING PROCESS AS REQUIRED. THESE JINGLES ARE;-
INDOMIE NOODLES IN HAUSA
ZUNUSDEEN SYRUP IN HAUSA
TOP TEA IN HAUSA.
THE VOICE OVER ARTIST ARE NOT HAUSA AND COULD NOT PRONOUNCE CERTAIN WORDS WHICH MAKES THE ENTIRE PRODUCTION DEFECTIVE AND UNWORTHY OF BROADCAST.
WE HOPE THE ASP AND APCON MANAGEMENT SHOULD TAKE APPROPRIATE ACTIONS, AS THE JINGLES ARE DEMARKETING THE PRODUCTS BECAUSE OF THE POOR LANGUAGE USED.
WARM REGARDS,
SAMMANI SHARIFF BASHIR, rpa
President APF.
