Comments on Outrage over Lebo ad
 
Also in the South - worried journalist!
I also spotted the adverts in the South of Joburg - Bassonia. They are very effective, but it is a pitty that they never got permission from her family.

It is just not right - frique Onacher
My humble opinion is this -No matter how you look at it ... its just not right to use the image of someone without prior permission. you would get your pants sued off you. it is not fair again in light of the fact that Lebo wasn't driving the vehicle. This is tantamount to disrespect for who she was and what she meant to her family , fans and the industry as a whole. if mama Tambo or Rattray had died under similar circumstances , would they be inclined to use their images for the same purpose and in like manner? i think not. let's "DO THE RIGHT THING"
