[quote author=Prigidypogodo post=129143523]a lesson to you bigots
over here we don't tolerate shitt because it's my tribe or whatever.
if you fucck up you'll be treated squarely.
Igbos are unique.
nobody dey feed anybody because we dey work hard individually so you don't expect us to start bootlicking the rich among us in whatever they do right or wrong like some certain people.
If you be billionaire na for your pocket nobody cares.
that's the mentality of an average igbo man.
we don't entertain mediocre over here.
The man messed up real big just like an average Nigeria rich man that thinks he can intimidate people using his connections.
unfortunately you can't get away with some things in this digital age.
he's reaping his reward and no sorry for him.[

Abegi!! Igbo this Igbo that, do you think erisco would be flexing muscle if a northern or Fulani lady said that?

Btw I do not support people spoiling others people’s effort,

Goodvibes007:

She is an influencer and told her 11,000 followers that the tomatoes was killing people. That's madness.
Relax,

when this matter started Chioma didn't have up to 4k followers. It's normal that her followers increased when it got to this level. Inibehe Effiong, her lawyer, is my friend on Facebook and so I remember when he brought this matter up around September or October last year.
If Chief Eric felt he had been wronged, all he should have done was to follow due process. Not the real madness of trying to crush her using his wealth and connections which if you do proper research on would tell you he has a habit of doing
If not for Social Media, he would have had her rotting in Jail by now courtesy of our poor institutions.
Do you even know the level of human rights abuses he has subjected that lady to?
There's a bigger picture to all of this.

Don't be unfortunate.

If you had followed the case properly you would have known that what the lady said was that the paste was too sugary. She made a facebook post sharing that opinion. But in the characteristic way of the criminal Nigerian police force, they were able to carry out the vendetta of that rich halfwit by attributing other posts that she didn't create to her.

His obstinate determination to kill this woman will be his undoing.

I am not unfortunate. I stated my opinion.

[b]When the Boeing worker went online to blow whistle that 737 Max was a death trap. He was found dead the next day.

Nigeria is even taking her to court, no one is killing anyone.

Dont let the western media scatter Nigeria, these guys are more corrupt than we are,

Nigeria should learn a lesson from this, set up a NAFDAC and Consumer protection Bureau to handle claims.

We need businesses and sometimes people are mischievous, it could have been Erisco's competition setting him up. Erisco spent billions to set up a tomato processing plant probably also took on big loans. There are people whose rent, school fees, livelihood depend on Erisco. So for one person to defame/slander their business overnight is not good either. For those who do business, we all know there is a period you are very fragile while building your brand.

The case should be settled, Chioma should be made to prove her allegations, if she cant she should be charged for slander and loss of revenue to Erisco.

Both parties deserve fair treatment.[/b]

Because Boeing allegedly killed a whistle blower doesn't mean he has the right to abuse power.
If he was smart, there are a thousand and one ways he could have twisted that review around that would benefit his company.

But like most power drunk Africans do, they always have the desire to flaunt his powers.

Tell me, is there anyone here who haven't given bad reviews for our mobile networks?
How many posts and videos have been made about the amount of sugar contained in Coca-Cola and most of these soda drinks?

Also, the case is a civil case, and the police is not supposed to be involved. If he were really interested in taking her to court, he should communicate that with his lawyers who will then serve her the court papers.

If not that we're in a lawless country, why should anyone be able to "pay police" to arrest another citizen?

Do Nigerians even know the law governing Nigeria?
Or they've been so used to oppression from "big men" that they can't differentiate right from wrong?

No matter what she says, even if she categorically said she saw the tomato paste killing someone, it's a civil matter.

Through his legal team, he should let her defend that in a court room, not start harassing her because he's got deep pockets and has connections.

Prettychild:

Which one is unlawfully arrest, she was arrested for criminal defamation and cyber bullying, and not charged for a tortious act. It’s either she is granted administrative bail or granted court bail. Administrative bail is strictly the Police that has powers to do so. They might decide to give difficult conditions so it’s left for the suspect to negotiate his/her way out. Let’s keep emotions aside, she had the chance to retract her statement but she refused cos some people were ‘gingering’ her. The people pushing her have left her to face her music. Her lawyer should just push for her matter to be charged to court so that he/she can secure bail for her

Arrested? why? Has the court proved her guilty? She was unlawfully arrested, my dear. Know your rights! why do you think an International news outlet has picked up the case? What's the cybercrime committed?

Facebook doesn't censor "killing". Also, "ki***ing" is eight character long, not 7... "killing" is 7..

Then that's still a pretty risky move.
It's true that she didn't technically spell the word out, but she was clearly alluding to it and making a very strong accusation.

Even if she technically used asterisks instead of letters. It's not like anyone would reasonably interpret that as "kidding" or "kissing."

The excuse is just trying to find a loophole to get out of the situation, but it will not hold up in court.

Your lawyer will explain better

No, you're the one IMAGINING things and making things up. In court, you don't prove a case based on ASSUMPTIONS. It has to be beyond reasonable doubt. According to a legal maxim by Sir William Blackstone, “It is better that ten guilty persons escape than that one innocent suffer.”

That's because the law is very STRICT and CARES about evidence that'll leave no room for doubt. That's why your EFCC is finding it difficult to send allegedly corrupt politicians to jail. You have to prove beyond a reasonable doubt.

Erisco will have to prove that. Unfortunately, "stop kidding people with your product" makes as much sense as the verb you chose. "Kidding" also means "to deceive". See definition at screenshot. Note, that's just me speculating, like you.

If you don't understand the meaning of a word, the best thing is to ask the writer for clarity rather than giving it any meaning you like. No court will jail anyone using such an ambiguous word in a criminal case. Erisco is wasting his time.

Erisco took the whole matter too far, he really wants to crash his business. He should have known that his rivals could twist the whole matter against him.Power of PR sha
Fun fact is that majority of those reviewers don't even know most of erisco's products and they will still consume his product today today, erisco's products na must for your food.

Whatever happens online doesn't affect Erisco in a bit, so far his product has competitive advantage over big brands. Don't play with customers loyalty in Nigeria.

People are just been sentimental and emotional because the case involves a woman..A woman who tried to destroy someone business with her mouth that she can't control and she went ahead to say it's killing people and she talked about his computations in good light like she was paid to destroy Erisco..

She was reached out to so the matter could be solved out of court but she was bragging to go to court she was first arrested and after much pleading she was told to go but bring down that post she made and she agreed only to be released and she decided to sue and become greedy and now it has backfired and they are now playing the gender card..

I was her supporter when the issue first started but as it progressed I knew she is just a wicked and mischievous woman and deserves jail time. This rubbish Western media people should stop twisting the story..
