…you may want the text of this ad, scrolling at the bottom of a local soap opera in Lusaka:
“Dr Kapeza the herbalist hereby introduces new herbal medicines such as bringing back lost goods in 24 hours, attracting more custoers to your business, swollen legs, STDs, lucky charms and for those with the problem of producing children you are most welcome. Do not want to have a baby? For more details, we are situated behind Libala Basic School.”
So now, if you want some lucky charms (edible or otherwise) with your herpes medication, you know where to go…
When I described this ad to my Zambian friends later, they broke into laughter before I could even finish my sentence and yelloed in unison, “Doctor Kapeza!” So I guess it’s an ad striking to more people than just me…
