pansophist: No they don't, but they'll have a clue. Same way Nigerians don't understand Jamaican Patois, but have a clue, especially due to the influence of reggae.
MeineMutter: You are wrong. She doesn’t need to. Every manufacturer holds that duty of care towards their consumers.
See this popular case of Donoghue v Stevenson [1932].
If she could prove that the tomatoes paste company didn’t exercise care towards her by releasing such product into the market, the company could be held liable.
I am not wrong and you know why she wasn't complaining or sueing them but rather jump to social media. Pls read my comment again. I would have so insult even curse her because I hate abuse of social media. And the case you quoted was not through the social media of that age.
Taylor92: Atiku and his Fulani aids has been the one filing a suit against Tinubu
No Igbo person has ever filed a single lawsuit against Tinubu in USA
But instead of you to attack your slave masters you did the normal thing to drag IPOB into it make Hausa no beat una blue black
Support a clean and sane candidate una no gree
Imagine the peace of mind you would have had if you didn’t support Tinubu
But no you chose to rub your face in the mud because of tribalism
You dey mind them something he should brag with he is now guarding with our taxpayers money not to be revealed, those urchin thinks he's paying for lawyers and legal fees from his personal purse?
Officers of the Kick Against Indiscipline (KAI) have taken deliberate efforts to eradicate illegal markets in Lagos.
On the order of the commissioner for environment, Tokunbo Wahab, the officers were seen packing food items like yams and pepper owned by Traders running illegal markets at CMD/Magodo axis.
In a video shared the commissioner’s twitter account, they were seen packing all these items into their vehicles in order to restore normalcy in the area.
It would be recalled that two days ago, the commissioner announced that LAWMA has sealed Oyingbo and Alayabiagba markets in Lagos following series of unheeded warnings.
He also mentioned that other Other markets that risk imminent shut-down for improper waste disposal and sundry environmental infractions include: Tejuosho Model Market Phase 1, Ladipo Market in Mushin, Anjorin Market, Irewolede Plank Market, Idi-Araba Obele Market, Oni Baba Market,Oba Morufu International Market, formerly known as Ejigbo Market, Ijora 7UP Market, Okeafa Plank Market, Ifelodun Fruit Market, Amukoko, among others.
Wisdomkosi: The Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (FCCPC) has said that it will issue a summon to Erisco Foods Limited over the arrest and detention of Chioma Egodi Jnr.
The Executive Vice Chairman/CEO of FCCPC, Barrister Babatunde Irukera, made this known on X (formerly Twitter) following the arrest of Egodi, who made a review of Erisco’s product.
“UPDATE: @fccpcnigeria operatives have confirmed arrest & transfer of the case to Abuja by the Police Force. She was no longer at the station on arrival,” Irukera posted.
“Working to determine exact current location & engaging Force HQ in Abuja. Summons being issued to @EriscoFoodsLtd immediately.”
The lady in question, Egodi Jnr, made a post on Facebook on September 17, 2023, where she said she tasted too much sugar in the tin tomato she bought, a product of Erisco Foods.
“I went to buy tin tomatoes yesterday (September 16) that I will use to make stew; I didn’t see Gino and Sonia, so I decided to buy this one,” she wrote.
“When I opened it, I decided to taste it omo! Sugar is just too much! Haaa biko let me know if you have used this Tin tomato before because this is an ike gwuru situation!”
The management of Erisco Foods Limited thereafter issued an official statement about the post Egodi made on Facebook about their product and also said they would take all necessary actions against any malicious attack on their reputation.
“The attention of Erisco Foods Limited has been drawn to a Facebook post by one Chioma Egodi Jnr on September 17, 2023, alleging that Nagtko Tomato Mix, one of the three tomato paste variants of Erisco Foods Limited, contains an unhealthy amount of sugar and therefore not fit for human consumption,” Erisco wrote.
“While this claim is untrue and unfounded in its entirety, we wish to put on record that Erisco Foods Limited, from inception Is built on the vision and mission to manufacture and promote healthy, wholly Made-in-Nigeria tomato products with the commitment to feeding not only Nigerians but also Africans with healthy foods.
“Our Initial reaction was to ignore and disregard the post which was obviously intended to mistead our esteemed customers and discredit the image of Ensco Foods Limited, as previously instigated by some elements and syndicates who are uncomfortable with our increasing market dominance as a leading indigenous manufacturer of 100% natural tomato pastes. Considering, however, that Erisco Foods Limited has built a reputation as a credible organization committed to due process and the good of humanity, we have decided to bring the said publication to the attention of relevant authorities.
“In light of the above, we wish to reiterate that Erisco Foods Limited is solely committed to the production of healthy tomato products, including other products that have the full regulatory stamp and approval of NAFDAC and Standard Organization of Nigeria.
“While we recognize the rights of our consumers to make genuine observations about our products, we want to thank our esteemed customers for their continued patronage of Erisco Foods Limited. However, having built our reputation on healthy and quality products which have earned us both local and international awards, including the National Productivity Order of Merit Award, we will take all necessary actions against any malicious attack on our reputation.”
Egodi was arrested and whisked away to Abuja by the Police Force, as confirmed by the FCCPC boss, Irukera on X (formerly Twitter) on Monday.
“This has come to our attention @fccpcnigeria & we are engaged. Saw statement & deepening learning of the circumstances right now,” he posted.
“We have a team seeking to clarify arrest/detention status of the subject; & activating regulatory process to secure explanation from @EriscoFoodsLtd.”
She was only served her own stew. She ought to have channel her discovery of infraction to the right channel by notifying the appropriate Agencies and Authority including the company. Until they failed to recall the product and compensate for the inconveniences before she can drag them online. Note it's also subject to others consumers with similar complaint. Calling other competitors product brand is a NO! Everything is not social media cruise this is an official matter.
I love this let's start same everywhere beginning with the political office holders then other politicians then the rural leaders with their children as in the days of Biblical Kings. And this shouldn't be peculiar to government only, it should include other institutions and sectors of our existence. In any organization be it street, house and family.
BoldBrainz: When Nigerians are already caught between the ferocity of terrorists and the brutal high handedness of security agencies, what is left to see in the frontlines that's worse than the current Nigerian existence?
festacman: It is either VP Shettima was envious of Usman Oladipo's brilliance while in school or he is pissed that Usman hasn't, like other former classmates, come to worship him and seek favours from him. And now, his being VP afforded him an opportunity to get back at him. The statement sounds mean and he needs to apologize to Usman Oladipo immediately.
In alternative he should submit Usman Oladipo's name for an immediate juicy appointment as payment for image damage.
But on a serious note, VP Shettima needs speak with a lot more caution. DGM in a bank is a senior management position attained by years of legitimate work.
Shikini: Lol ... even former President Goodluck Jonathan rang the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) in 2013 without noise. These agbado corn-eater supporters are laughable.
Pls note, that the NYSE is the number stock exchange in the world and much more capitalised than the NASDAQ.
The crack economic team that even accompanied GEJ cannot be compared to those empty-skull sycophants I saw around Tinubu's
What has who first or last, infact what Bleep is there about who rang the bell has that crashed dollar exchange or fuel now 10 naira per liter or all school level have become free. Ara kan wa ju gbogbo iranu yen.
englishmart: Lagos is the only southwestern state that can produce non-indigenous wealthy people. You see osun, ondo, kwara, Oyo, ogun, and Ekiti, those ones have no indigenous millionaires let alone non-indigenous ones. Lagos is their UK. I remember lodging in Ekiti in January, I was told to bathe in a nearby river if I needed to have a bath. I was given dirty wrapper, bucket and soap. While we were still discussing, I saw an army of bedbugs dancing around the corner. I had to forfeit the #1500 per night I already paid and left before they mined my skul. Ogun state is so backward that they call primary school college:
Lagos is built by the colonialists and non-indigenes. Yorubas contribution to the growth of Lagos is puny and can easily go unnoticed
Edited: kwara is north central, but a former Yoruba state that was forcefully snatched from the loudspeaking cowards. Also, that hotel of #1500 is a five star hotel in their estimation. Non was costlier
Did you read where Oyo, Ogun and Osun was mentioned?
Bvlgari: This young lady was impregnated by a Chinese expatriate, and seen somewhere along the Sagamu Abeokuta expressway. According to her, the affair was blissful until it was time for him to go back to his country, he then demanded that she ‘sell’ the baby to him, or else he wouldn’t fend for the baby. She declined to sell the baby and he has decided to cut off mother and child.
