Toyota ..Honda...Nissan..mercedes benz...volvo..tesla...bmw....

have faulty vehicles and do auto recalls.. .but because of ya foolishness you forgot that and resorted to ya default mode of insulting IGBO peeps.

lanre Shittu owns JAC motos patronised by most SW atates and ...they have humongous "backlash" because their cars and other vehicles are useless. You dont see IGBOs there talking down the man, Even though his cars are trashy.

grow up..old fuul...what happened to your

ngeneukwuenu, oyigboupdate,omeka,omenkalives, icar monikers?? you are just a resounding failure that sees the BIG IGBOs in your tiny agbado brain...spits!!

Why Is it that anything that comes from biafra land is always fake and substandard now innoson lol
If innoson want his car to survive the Nigerian market I will advise the man to move his factory/plant from Anambra and take it to either Lagos ogun or Ibadan where there are a lot of skilled workers that will be willing to work for his company.
He should learn from dangote bua and other billionaires that have big market in Nigeria this is what they did and their markets survived.
Anambra have no skilled workers most of them are unskilled compared to Ibadan workers
This is the advice I have for innoson if he want to really achieve like dangote or bua

The agency had paid Innoson the sum of N49.5 million, including taxes, for the purchase of the bus on 17 November 2021.


Trouble, however, started when the company on 16 November 2021, delivered a 30-seater bus that was not in line with the specifications it reached with the Agency.


How was the above possible? Let's stop this nonsense journalism targeted against each other in this country . It won't end well o.

What are you saying?! Would you buy a substandard product because it was produced by your sister or brother? Let's tell ourselves the truth. Whatever is worth doing, is worth doing well.

maasoap:


How about you appealing to Innoson to do the same instead of displaying nonsense here? Are we even supposed to hear about this if Innoson had done the right thing since. Stop displaying madness here in the name of defending nonsense

Goodlady:

Sir, e o lopolo rara! You don't v sense sir.
I respectfully tell you that your IQ is the lowest on this forum.
I m aware FG is patronizing Innosson. But the same FG gas senators n reps that rejected the car's recently n Nigerians are yet to patronise them massively.

NAN reports that this is the second time the agency would be rejecting Innoson’s vehicles due to either non-compliance with specifications or mechanical fault.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) has demanded the immediate replacement of a new bus supplied to the agency by Innoson Vehicle Manufacturing Company Limited.
The demand was made in a letter the agency despatched to Innoson even as it expressed regrets over the patronage of Made-in-Nigeria vehicles.

The letter dated 16 January and signed by the agency’s Principal Legal Officer, Mojirola Eniola, stated in part:

“Following the failure of your organisation to meet our demands for the evacuation and replacement of the faulty 30-seater bus (IVM6751) supplied to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) within seven (7) days of the receipt of our letter dated January 6, 2023, we have been left with no choice but to return the vehicle to your premises.”

NAN reports that this is the second time the agency would be rejecting the company’s vehicles due to either non-compliance with specifications or mechanical fault.

In line with the Buhari administration’s admonition to patronise local industries, the agency had some time in 2021 approached the motor vehicle plant to supply it with a 30-seater bus for its workers.

The agency had paid Innoson the sum of N49.5 million, including taxes, for the purchase of the bus on 17 November 2021.


Trouble, however, started when the company on 16 November 2021, delivered a 30-seater bus that was not in line with the specifications it reached with the Agency.

The agency promptly rejected the bus and directed its solicitors to demand a replacement in line with the agreed specifications.

Atiku-Okowa AD

In its 1 February 2022 letter to Innoson through its solicitors, the agency demanded a replacement within 14 days or face legal action.

Responding to the threat, Innoson in a letter dated 14 February 2022, apologised to NAN for the inconvenience it had caused the Agency.

“We want to use this medium to apologise to your client (NAN) for any inconvenience that they may have experienced due to their complaint,” the letter signed by a director, Jonas Ojukwu, said.

Mr Ojukwu, who in the letter claimed that his company does not sell refurbished vehicles, promised to replace the rejected vehicle.

“We will bring in a replacement brand new Innoson 30-seater bus to your client (News Agency of Nigeria) before the fourteen (14) days that you stated from the date of receipt of your letter and we shall retrieve the one supplied before now.


“We want to assure you that our business relationship will not be thwarted by any form of dissatisfaction for our desire is to serve our customers to the best of their satisfaction,” Mr Ojukwu stated.

In spite of the assurances in Mr Ojukwu’s correspondence, the replacement vehicle delivered to NAN on 8 April 2022 only worsened the agency’s transportation woes as it was dogged by successive mechanical faults.

Before the eventual evacuation of the vehicle to the Innoson Abuja office, the bus had been lying idle on the agency’s premises for several months due to mechanical faults.

The Agency’s Head of Technical Department, Aaron Miller, said the vehicle since delivery had been permanently grounded due to a faulty gearbox.

He said several appeals made to the Innoson Abuja office to evacuate the vehicle for repairs were ignored.

“We made several representations to them to repair this faulty gearbox all to no avail.

“On the three occasions their technicians showed up to ostensibly repair the vehicle, the problems persisted, causing embarrassment to the agency, ” he said.

Frustrated by the vehicle company’s noncommittal response in evacuating the vehicle, the agency issued another seven-day ultimatum to Innoson Abuja office in a letter dated 6 January.

This was to be followed by a final notice in a 16 January letter and the eventual towing of the faulty vehicle to the Abuja premises of Innoson on Tuesday after the company reneged on its pledge to evacuate the vehicle.

When a NAN correspondent contacted Mr Ojukwu on phone, he said the bus would be repaired.

Tribalism have eaten so deep inside of you.Atleast they manufactured one . Which one did your people manufacture?
If not tia tia foot with big nyash with dirty cloths smelling walking up and down selling agbo Jedi jedi

SmartyPants:


If the chief complaint was over defective vehicles, then yes this could be referred to regulators. However, the agency is not even trying to down that route.

This is not a vehicle manufacturing issue. This is a simple contractual issue - I paid for service, I deserve service. sImple.

Now yes the government and all it's agencies should not destroy local industries, similarly, local producers have a responsibility to at least do the bare minimum. It costs Innoson absolutely nothing to evacuate faulty buses and replace them. What operational challenges could justify not doing so?

So you can't leave the major failing here and focus on the reactive failing in order to paint the picture of being marginalised. Stop it! That is to say, one who means well for Nigeria should first caution Innoson to do the right thing, before quarreling with their disgruntled customer for calling them out.

ebufa:





Substandard is a stretch from a product developing or having a fault straight from the factory! Even my new Tesla y (dual motor) had issues from the factory.....it took 4 months for it to be rectified..............millions of vehicles are "recalled" routinely in America! so what is the big deal! How I hate the way we veil open tribalism in the name of constructive arguments!

Ogonimilitant:
You paid N49million for 30 seater units of buses.
Which is less than 1.3m per bus. This is how you want to patronize your country.

Innoson was founded in 2007
Toyota was founded in 1937
And you want Innosson to be like Toyota. The government of Japan funded Toyota why innoson started and funded itself from the scratch.

The government of Sierra loan bought vehicles from Innosson and have not had any problem but Nigerians instead of supporting their own brand keeps demarketing their brand because he is an Igbo man.

Obi is coming and Nigeria shall be great again.

Yaribanzaonic:
That is why..idiotic agbado like you are fuuulish and stewpid. Even Tesla, with all innovations are having issues, let alone established brands like Benz, Bmw ,Volkswagen etc. Even Toyota and Honda, with Nissan aint finding easy out here. but you want to mock innoson, because its an IGBO vehicle?? you are unshakable in your stewpidity. ..spits!!

The action of News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), the publicity stunt, is a display from moronic dingbat. Anything made by man, even in some cases by almighty, can be faulty.

Nigeria demarkets her own in every possible way. Issues like this are handled with confidentiality. How do you expect other countries to patronise your own if you do something like this
