EFF threatens to shut down Clicks stores after 'racist' advert
The EFF has threatened to shut down Clicks stores countrywide on Monday if the company does not do so itself.
This after the health and beauty retailer came under fire on Friday, for an advert in a campaign run on its website where it published an image of African hair, which was labelled as dry and damaged, while an example of white hair is described as fine and flat.
The video could not be loaded.
“If Clicks does not close, our members in all branches will shut down all 800 Clicks outlets across the country from Monday September 7 2020 to Friday September 11 2020,” the EFF said.
The party said that the company needed to shut down for five days because, it claimed, the apology it issued was not genuine.
EFF leader Julius Malema took to Twitter telling the company he would see them on Monday and calling on EFF members to “attack”.
Clicks was not immediately available for comment.
