Twas 2naira per pack of 4
This was in the late 90s. Most of the characters are still alive.
This just shows how bad this country as always being ruled
A very sad thing for the naira

It was early to mid-90s.

azpekuliar:
I remember the ad. It was in the early '90s. It was one of the earliest efforts to fight a then silent but growing AIDS problem in Nigeria. Then Nigerians were still in denial about AIDS. AIDS was mockingly called an American Invention to Discourage Sex so behaviours towards casual sex did not change much as a result of this ad. It took the death of Fela for behaviours to begin to change. Infact I am looking for one of the earliest public health documentaries on AIDS in Nigeria which featured Dr. Olikoye Ransome-Kuti and aired on NTA back then. It used to send shivers down my spine Maybe Naptu2 can help me in that regard.

naptu2:



Back in the day, before the first case of AIDS was actually detected in Nigeria, the authorities used fear mongering in their AIDS campaigns. The AIDS symbol featured a skull and cross bones. It was so terrifying that you'd think that you already had AIDS, even though there was no confirmed case in Nigeria. The documentaries that you wrote about featured people that were emaciated and were like walking skeletons.

Then one evening in 1986, Professor Olikoye Ransome Kuti announced (on the Network News) the detection of the first case of AIDS in Nigeria. It was quite scary.


It was around this time that some foreign and domestic NGOs were running campaigns (in conjunction with government) about family planning and so they just incorporated the AIDS theme into their campaign.

The first condom advert was for Right Time Condom. It featured a man who knocked on glass and announced, "I have now decided. . .".

Right Time Condom was made by the Society For Family Health. Most people thought that the advert was funny, but some people complained about it. They wondered how condom and sanitary pad adverts could be shown on TV (Always had also just started advertising at that time).

I don't know what happened to Right Time Condom, but it disappeared and Gold Circle Condom appeared. It was also made by the Society for Family Health. I think this was its first advert.

In the late 1990s or early 2000s, health experts decided that fear mongering was not working and that it was stigmatising people living with HIV/AIDS. The scary documentaries stopped and the AIDS symbol was changed from the skull and crossbones to the ribbon below.

Something like this, but the symbol that was usually shown on the NTA had skull and crossbones and the word AIDS in bold red letters underneath.

Who get this raincoat?
Abeg na me o.
Hmm I don de old.

See ayo mogaji sef. Lol. I remember.


It's still the same price though.

TooNoisy:
Obidients are not old enough to know this adverts. Its the very young and gullible Pitobi can deceive.

Are the older ones not suffering insecurity? Are they exempted from the poor economy?

LollySeaSide:


If you ask me, I'd say it's FP worthy.
That advert was created in the 90s and has no erotic acts, no form of nudity, no sexually suggestive content even though it's a condom advert.

Can you say that of adverts in today's times?
Go to YouTube and take a look at what they call "Best condom commercials of all time" and see what I'm talking about.
As you watch, keep in mind that those commercials are a collection of the most decent condom commercials.

Anyway, you didn't ask me so I didn't say anything.
