ANCYL Crisis Committee calls for TRESemmé products boycott, condemns EFF violence during Clicks hair protest clicksadvert
Johannesburg - The ANC Youth League’s Crisis Committee has called on South Africans to boycott TRESemmé products after a racially offensive advert was published by the company last week on the Clicks website.
“We further call for an economic boycott of all TRESemmé hair products which was the product line responsible for the advert. “The actions by the EFF are nothing more than a display of a populist stance, with no meaningful solutions that will forge a non-racial and inclusive society envisioned by the ANC.
“Nature abhors a vacuum. In the absence of a credible youth leadership, we will take it upon ourselves to call on the South African Human Rights Commission to investigate the racial violations caused by not only Clicks as the retail store responsible but also the Unilever Group to ensure they are held accountable for their unacceptable actions,” they said.
