Chineke...gash ... no wonder Tinubu is leading us...the number of dullards are just overwhelming

E choke. Choken't it?

Yes I know. I frowned at her review when I saw it that time. It specifically portrayed the brand in bad light. It was wrong. I feel both parties allowed gragra to take over.

There’s another one I saw. The lady showed the brand & went ahead to show how the vegetable oil turns to a black sticky substance like coal tar. That was also not good for the brand image but the brand hasn’t sued her. As far as I know, I’ve not heard about her being sued for that.

She SHOWED IT.
So it is TRUE and NOT MALICIOUS.
All Chioma needed to do was show the people the tomato has killed and Erisco will hide in shame. Did she even say how it kills people? No. She only said it contains sugar and therefore kills people. Since when did sugar become poison?

1Sharon:
Where was the defamation? Do you know what a figure of speech is? Illiterate.

I give up

1Sharon:
That's defamation, you illiterate.

Ofcourse you don't live in the US, you don't need to tell me twice. Ode.

Are you even serious?

Beverlyjean:
Now can u shut up ... and I never said I live in Yankee...u have a defect with comprehension...not surprised

I hope all these "saner climes" will now shut up. Ndi negative PR where una dey? Silly people talking rubbish.
"Untrue and malicious", these can never be overemphasized. You can not make a review that is untrue and malicious and call it a review. You will get away with it only if the company lets you go. But if they decide to sue, you are going down. You can claim 'figure of speech' all you want and it won't save you. You don't practice your literary prowess on people's business. And the court is not your literature class to use figure of speech as defence. You go explain taya. Know this and know peace.

Beverlyjean:
If she said all she said without mentioning erasco ...she would not be in trouble... she was specific, and it landed her I trouble... if erasco mentioned names of brands, he would have been in hot soup

Why is this difficult for people to understand?

1Sharon:
😂😂

IYKYK!

Illiterate. Pls show me where somebody has been thrown in jail for giving a negative review.Especially while pregnant.

Olodo. Shey na US you dey ni?? You wan be superstar.

Please why are you mentioning pregnancy like it is some get-out-of-jail free card? Are you saying you have not seen pregnant women sent to jail? Are you saying that pregnancy stops people from being sent to jail? You are really not making sense.
And when will you learn the difference between negative reviews and defamation/false accusation?

Tonididdyx:
You've being running your mouth all day like your brain is on hire.
You wrote all that nonsense to justify why the lady deserve what she got.
But you failed to see the elephant in the room, which is, erisco created the awareness to all of this, it could have died a silent death but NO, the company has alerted nigerians to 1001 reasons why it's product should be boycotted.

I for one won't see gino in the market and now but erisco Abe aricso, when I'm not mad!

And you forget that in marketing every publicity can be good publicity. All you that claim to be professional PR agents know absolutely nothing about PR.
Let's take a simple example. Do you know the number of people who never knew about Erisco before this saga, but now know about them? Do you know the number of people that will want to get and taste their product just to know if it is actually that bad? My dear do you know what that it? SALES. Do you know how many of them will taste it and say "this product is actually good"? Do you know how many of them that will continue using it after it passed their taste test? I personally have been looking for the product to buy. So if you think people are boycotting the product, de play. If you are waiting for when Erisco will fold up, de play. Every single thing about this whole story is playing in favor of Erisco. All they need to do is make sure their product is above average.

immortalcrown:
You are the abuser of human rights. You are the brutal one. Otherwise, point out any falsehood or injustice in my comment.

No they will not. They just want you to confirm to their sentimental bullcrap. A lot of nigerians are just annoyingly silly.

Rebelutionary:
Erisco opened his business to play right? He doesn't mean business? I thought they were sharing Discounts Codes and Free Vouchers for just any Negative and Nigeria is a banana republic? Mtscheww.

Oh it is now exaggeration plus figure of speech abi? That's why she's in court, she will prove that it was exaggeration and educate the judge about figure of speech.

If you followed this case, Chioma pushed her luck too far! She was giving the opportunity to recant this before it got to court but mbanu just like many Nigerians talk anyhow because they believe "freedom of speech" doesn't have limits. Now she will educated on the difference between a Review and an Allegation!

Seriously, the way some dumbfvcks jump into an issue without any background information and start whipping out sentiments is just irritating. Nigerians really do talk anyhow.

Carazon:
The saner climes is only in the imagination. Most of them have not travel outside their states while majority of them don't even know road to their state capitals

The thing taya me o. Saner climes where defamation doesn't exist? Saner climes where you are free to give false accusations with no repercussions? Chai!

femi4:
Most of you are educated illiterate. You have data, go to YouTube and see divers reviews of youtubers with thousands of followers

Please show me ONE YouTube review, just one, that said a product is killing people when the the product has killed absolutely no one.
Note: saying a product "can kill people", is completely different from "it kills people". If you don't know the difference, go back to primary school.

1Sharon:
It's funny how you have the gall to bring up sentiments when that's exactly what you did in your first paragraph. Do you think there is any business on earth that doesn't have negative reviews? Do you think any business is above criticism? Is Erisco God that cannot be blasphemed?

What do you this is?

Chioma didn't defame anything. Her comment that the product was "killing people" was simply an exaggeration and figure of speech. You guys know this but want to be mischievous and obtuse.

Travel to a working country. REFUNDS and DISCOUNTS are given for negative reviews. Nobody goes to prison.

Travel to an advanced country and experience sanity.

Na waa o. Madam can you just stop? Figure of speech again? Haba!
I don't know if you are married, but imagine you are married and I go to your husband and tell him that you have been sleeping around with several men in your community. I also went and publicized it to the community that you are a married prostitute. And when you confront me, I ask you why are you complaining, that it is just a figure of speech. I guess you will give me a high five, right?

Biglittlelois:
Chioma said it had too much sugar not killing people, don't quote me saying nonsense next time.

Madam, don't tell me you came here to comment without knowing what you are commenting on? Shoo? Please ask questions before you comment. She said the tomato had too much sugar. I'm sure we wouldn't be talking about it if she stopped there. But the mumu woman subsequently added in her comment section that it is killing people. When someone challenged her serious accusation, she simply said to the person "wait till e kpai you" (wait till it kills you). But she can't provide even one person the tomato killed or was suspected to have killed. The police told her to apologize, she refused. When she later apologized, she was released, but she immediately twitted that the apology was under duress and should be ignored. That's when Erisco decided to bring the hammer.

cnonyechi:
All this long story is for nothing, we no buy again. Nobody would have boycotted the product cos of Chioma's reviews, it's a review for crying out loud, people boycotted and are boycotting cos of the proud and inhuman actions of the md of the company. When I heard him speak and vow I knew naaa, I no fit chop him product.

Main market no know say one person no come market.

meum:
I’ve said it a couple of times in my previous posts.
Na PR expert work. If you don’t know forgerabourit.

It might interest you to know this same man fighting this woman demarketed other brands(without mentioning their names) on live TV. He said they add sugar/corn starch/additives while his brand is 100% pure tomatoes without additives. That was that period when he used to wear ankara suits to promote Naija. 2013/2014 or so. I can still remember those interviews because I watched them.

The bold part makes all the difference. Can't you see? Jeez!

PHIPEX:
Pls tell us the basis the Miyyeti Allah leader was discharged? On what basis were those repentant Boko Haram suspects discharged?

A bully always has a reason why he bullies people. Erisco is just a bully. Do you know how many times he called Nigeria Banks "killers"? Should CBN have arrested him?

You obviously don't know how the law works. All you know is sentiments and emotions.

Babalegba:
Lol, you vexed write that long thesis. Fact of the matter is that people like me are supporting her because of the bullying she faced from erisco.
She was wrong initially but for erisco to set the IGP on her has got to count as bullying. It's time nigerians tell all these rich people that impunity has to stop.

You obviously didn't hear that they gave her opportunity to simply apologize publicly and try to correct the damage she has done. But what did she do? She apologized, but once she was released she twitted that the she was forced to do the apology and that people shouldn't mind the apology. She actually claimed she was being bullied when Erisco and the police were just trying to settle things peacefully. She was obviously rearrested and the mumu probably couldn't meet her bail requirements.
So she was actually the one that tried to bully Erisco and was so stupid she didn't know when to stop. Now she is out, I hope she has learnt some lessons.

luminouz:
Jesus...so you don't see the logic in that guy's posts?

Many men on NL are NPCs

My brother, I've given up on trying to talk sense into some people. It will never work. You just can't reason with most Nigerians.

Demayour:
But then, the question still remains.

If the woman is as powerful and influential, would she have been treated as such? Taking the person to court is one thing, locking up someone when they've not been declared guilty for a very long time is another thing.

Is thus how democracy works in the country we copy it from or aren't we practicing aristocracy in disguise?

I guess you didn't hear that the senseless girl was told to apologize to end the matter. She did and was set free, but after release, she went back to say the apology she gave was fake and was under duress. She was obviously rearrested and the mumu probably couldn't meet her bail requirements. Influential or not, if you do anyhow, you see anyhow. Go and ask Ekweremadu.

Crafteck1:
Nonsense upon nonsense, in a sane environ, a company is meant to campaign and enlighten the public about this and that not threaten to deal with a consumer, the products were put in the market for same consumers right? If i dont like something after smoking BLESSING and hedges then i come out and say this cigarette contains lots of nicotine, which cigarettes normally do, is arresting me the next line of action? This is why religion enslaved people by shutting them from voicing their opinion and questioning things being preached to them...

One thing i want to know is if the owner of the company was from another tribe, would the ladys people be silent?
Seems when the tribe effect checkmated themselves, people chose btw rich and poor.

For your info, products plenty with negative effects for body..

Please borrow yourself some brain naah, haba! How will you say a cigarette contains lots of nicotine just by smoking one? Do you have some form of analyser in your lungs? You should learn the difference between review and accusation.
"It tastes like there's plenty nicotine in it" this is acceptable cos at least you can taste.
"It has plenty nicotine in it" this is an accusation you can't prove. Where is your lab?
Besides, nicotine or not, that is not the issue. But coming to the public to say a named brand of cigarette kills people is a very big accusation, especially when you can not name one person it killed. You can only say such and get away with it when you are too small that the company doesn't even know you exist. But if you succeed in getting their attention with that, I'm sure you won't like their reaction.

LandMann:
In your zombie logic if someone decides to say certain helicopter brands that has been crashing and leading to deaths is killing people then whoever says such will rot in prison without trial.

The funny thing about life is that people like you who support oppression and the evils in Nigeria often get served an overdose of the nemesis you support at some point in life.

Your own is coming.

I just hope you live to tell the tale because you'll never remain the same

I seriously think you have a problem with English. Something is not just right with your processing power.

frog12:
why is the court even listening to this stupid case ?

To teach stupid people like you lessons they will never forget.

frog12:
i don't see anything unlawful with her criticisms. the issue is the law she is been prosecuting with. her legal team is terrible, making her suffer unnecessarily

Why are you so silly? What do you know about law? So you feel you know more than her legal team? Oshe falana! You don't see anything unlawful in her criticism, yet she has spent several months in detention without a crime, abi? Oga seer. As SAN wey you be, you for go represent her as her legal team. Werey

vengertime:
I won't lie, my cousin and I saw that Erisco tomato paste in a super market and we bought some to see if this lady was being serious with her review or being mischievous.

My honest review is that the sugar content was intense, which I'm not even bothered about because Gino and Tastytom also has sugar in them when you taste them raw.

However, the tomato paste when Cooked for jollof rice it taste like burnt rubber or plastic. The taste was horrible. It's not something I could use twice.

Thank God I didn't review it on Facebook or Instagram. Because that man don't take criticism

So after writing this story, where are the pictures. How are we sure you actually laid hands on an Erisco product? How are we sure you are not one of the senseless hater that want to maliciously destroy another man's business? How are we sure you are not one of the olodos that can not differentiate tomato paste from tomato ketchup? How do you know the taste of burnt rubber or plastic? Have you been eating burnt rubber in the past? You must have been eating burnt rubber and plastic for you to know this tomato tastes like it.
Nobody said you shouldn't review product, but if you want to be the next MKBHD, then learn to state facts, not sentiments.

VeryDarkMan01:
What do you expect
You order screen from Ali express
What are you expecting
Don't you know Ali express screen are China screens and not genuine screen

We have Samsung screens with warranty
Location is Ikeja

Please stick to what you are sure of. Don't say what you don't know just to sell your market.

Laycoln:
2 months ago, I order Samsung 20plus screen from Aliexpress, two months after Screen no deh show again, Contact the seller she said the process of using the mobile phone can’t be controlled means it’s gone no refunded money waste

Ordering phone screen on AliExpress is not as straightforward as you think because there are many cheap fakes available. The original screens are not cheap especially if it is AMOLED display. So if it's very cheap, then it is very fake. What I do is to pick a reasonably priced one and then chat up the seller to confirm it is an original display removed from a phone. The description will also give you an idea if you know what you are looking for. Always look for "original" in the listing.
Note: only Samsung will can have their brand new OEM display for sale.

PlaybooyGANG:
I’m in Lagos brother !!! Please refer me asap, thank you 🙏

Is Gazzuz not in Lagos?

blezzino:

Please anyone else with similar issue on how it can be fixed
Thank you

A picture would help your question.

SaintUlot:
The item I bought on Aliexpress, the seller shipped it using FedEx, FedEx sent me a mail to pay 37k for Customs duty and clearance. I have never experience this before since I have been buying on Aliexpress, the seller already charged a huge shipping fee on the item.

Please what do I do in this scenario, I never prepare I ll pay any additional fee.

Only big boys ship with FedEx and UPS. You are a big boy, so deal with your big boy problem.

UniQue84:
most if you guyz love to vote along tribal lines...I bet if election is conducted again today your lots will still vote him ....do you know why

Most of you are Tribal bigot ...am sorry there is no remedy in the nearest future cos by next tomorrow it will just be one year in office I swear it looks like 7years already

Igbos don't vote along tribal lines. But they vote along SELFISH LINES. Tell me how many prominent Igbos supported PO. What happened to Soludo? What happened to Arthur Nzeribe? What happened to the human parts trader called Ekweremadu? Check all the prominent Igbos you know and ask yourself who they supported in the last election.
I am igbo but Igbos are too selfish for their own survival. If the igbo race is annihilated today, check well, an igbo man made it possible.
So which is worse? Voting along tribal lines or voting along selfish lines?

essentialone:
2 broke people
One is struggling to break out of poverty and the other one is waiting for the first one to make it so she will claim she was there for him while he was struggling,
But my question to you my sister,
Are you forbidden from working so hard to escape poverty.
Men
She is still with you because you are her best option, there is nothing like being loyal.
I will treat a woman that stand by me very well as long as she wasn't abusive during my struggling period and claim she was doing me a favour by dating me, secondly if she is not having entitlement mentality, then I will treat her like a queen which she is.

Women choose their partners the way an employer chooses his employees. Nobody employs you because they love you. Nobody employs you because they care about you. Nobody employs you because they are loyal to you. Nobody employs you because they want to help you. You are only employed if you can make the business better. You are only employed if you have something tangible to contribute to the business. You are employed on the expectation that you will make money for the business. That is exactly how women choose their partners. And like Chris Rock said, only women, children and dogs are loved unconditionally. Men are loved only on the condition that they provide.
But men? Men just want respect, appreciation, peace of mind and good pucy.
