NBC, Coca-cola Deny Criminal Charge Against Managing Directors by hayzed2: 10:50am On Oct 28, 2014 |
The Nigerian Bottling Company Plc. (NBC) and Coca-Cola Nigeria Limited (CCNL) on Monday expressed surprise at the media reports that the Chief Executive, NBC, Mr. Ben Langat and CCNL’s Managing Director, Mr. Adeola Adetunji, had been charged with violation of the Consumer Protection Council (CPC) Act. A statement jointly signed by the Head, Public Affairs and Communications, NBC, Uzo Odenigbo and Director, Public Affairs and Communications, CCNL, Clem Ugorji, stated that the firms had not been served with any criminal charge against the companies’ bosses. “We note from the media reports that criminal charges have been filed against NBC and CCNL in relation to alleged violations of the orders that were issued by the CPC in February 2014 following a consumer complaint involving two short-filled cans of Sprite. To date, we have not been served with any criminal charges.” While restating their utmost respect for the CPC as a regulator and an agency of government, the firms noted that their applications for a judicial review of court orders in February 2014, are pending in the courts. “NBC and CCNL have the utmost respect for the CPC as a regulator and an agency of government and will continue to cooperate with the council on this matter. “We filed applications for a judicial review of these orders in February 2014, which review is pending in the courts. We do not believe that our submission to judicial review is in violation of the council’s orders. We have full trust in the Nigerian judicial system. “Our consumers and customers are our highest priority. NBC and CCNL take all matters relating to our products very seriously and remain committed to maintaining the highest international quality and food safety standards. “Out of respect for the ongoing court processes, we do not wish to comment further in public on this issue,” the statement said. |
