Well..that Safcom advert is quite abstract---if u know wat im saying. The background music is sawa, very ok (i'll see u when u get there..etc)

So..here comes this safari crew with boastful fat driver..ati "he's the best driver in the mara.." then allover a sudden the truck radiator bursts.

What i dont get is how this maasai fellow knows forehand that the vehicle radiator will fail-thus sending his shuka clad highway mechanics to "fix" the problem.

Then the mechanics do a fast job & the car is back on the road. The hilarious part is when this 'maasai saviour' goes like: kama mimi ni wewe singepitia hapo..(or s'thing like that) & the poor driver is eaten up by the roaring lions..and the music beat goes on.......

Nways, its all about making pple subscribe to the 'berra option'

@A_Wings..welcome back

A masterly of English my dear is no yard stick of inteligence or high culture but a insight into our willing subjugation to western cultural imperialism.


And then one monkey laughed at the other monkey that he wasn't MAN enough...

@joginda ...gud lookin' out bro..
Yeah good commercial...

berra option when you consider what you pay abroad for service..at home we are constrained for equipment, lakini guys are getting all the doidos at home...call waiting, call forwarding, free customer service for pre-paid and post paid accounts...ngambo those are reserved for post paid..ati a ka-special service..LOL!
