The Streets Got the Scoop First

Before the press release.
Before the media briefing.
Before the agency decks.

There was @Marambu on TikTok.

A KFC employee accidentally revealed the brand’s upcoming ?5+5 Tuesday promo online, instantly triggering national chaos among hungry South Africans.

The now-viral TikTok can be viewed here: https://www.tiktok.com/@marambu53/video/7643886037370080530

KFC’s response?

The internet has since declared the employee:

• “Minister of Information”
• “The Plug”
• “Employee of the Month AND a promotion to Head of National Announcements”

At this point, South Africans trust TikTok cashiers more than official announcements.
