Your generation will be unfortunate. Werey

Smelly cunt... Eh go fall for your own body with your children. Unfortunate beings.

LandMann:
Your mumu and unnecessary justification of the actions of ERISCO is what landed the brand into its current mess.

Go to Google Play Store and see reviews people leave behind about apps they have used.

With your zombie logic most of those users will be rotting in jail.

What you fail to see is that Nigeria's justice system is warped and designed to be fair and just to the poor.

This is what attracted public sympathy for the lady.

Her incarceration and subsequent miscarriage was perceived by the public as excessive oppression of the poor by the rich.

I never saw her socalled review.

I only got to hear her name and ERISCO after the rich man who owns ERISCO used his power to keep her in jail.

What ERISCO probably lost is money.

But can ERISCO create life to replace the baby she lost?

Would you side with ERISCO if she was your wife?

The case has not even be tried and concluded to warrant judgement from the court so she can serve punishment if she's found guilty but can you in your black heart justice her being locked up in prison for several months as if she's been found guilty?

Again, stop commenting like a zombie on public issues if you have no sense of empathy

Until you point out any falsehood or injustice in my comment, you are just a hater of truth.

Check these morons supporting the useless companies, they are igbos.
Tribalism kill you people.
Time will tell , that useless company won't survive for long.

I'm Yoruba you clown🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I don't reason based on tribalism but pure logic. Unless you wey dey practice how to curse upandan

Biglittlelois:
Where exactly is it in the law or constitution that explicitly states that public criticism of a product is illegal or attracts jail time?

Can only happen in a banana Republic where freedom of speech is not guaranteed.

there is clear different between criticism and defamation of character, what happened to Erisco was purely defamation of character and the aim of the lady was to brought down the company, even if you must criticize, there is what we called constructive criticism

Rebelutionary:
Ignorance is truly bliss but not an excuse! Call Nigeria whatever but nowhere in the world would you make an unsubstantiated claim that a brand kills people and you would walk free! None! Except that brand doesn't have a reputation to protect.

Writing a review and making allegations without proof are two differ not things. Some of you think it is Nairaland where you can type any sentimental and tribalistic nonsense that floats your boat, naa, some people have built a reputation and they will protect it with all they've got. The BURDEN of proof is on her to show how many people Erisco Foods has killed. She go do census tire!

Anybody close to her should tell her to seek to settle this out of court because the Erisco boss doesn't seem to be playing with the court case.

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

You will regret it within the next 7days if U don't withdraw this comment

Na them, and you wonder why the Country isn't progressing . Even mobile apps dey get bad reviews

A lot of written and video reviews of non Nigeria products are out there. We ain't civilised in this part of the world

If you have followers, make a review about TECHNO phones and claim that the their product is killing people then go ahead and advertise any of their competitor as best just as the lady did, na that time your eye go clear.

immortalcrown:
[sub][/sub] Until you point out any falsehood or injustice in my comment, you are just a hater of truth.

Your version of truth is what is killing ERISCO foods.
Keeping pushing your version of truth.

Simple matter there. People would decide what they want want to keep quiet about. Company have decided they are charging her. The court will determine if defamation have occured not we citing examples of what happens in so called advanced countries.

She should not fidget and we should not get emotional on her behalf too.

1Sharon:
She 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.

Read your statement again and see that you're the zombie here because you're talking about a plane that has a history of crash landing and killing people in the process
Have Erisco product killed anyone before?

1Sharon:
Oh really? You need to travel to a sane country. They give people back REFUNDS and DISCOUNTS for negative reviews. That's what's called CUSTOMER SERVICE.

Here we gone again with the "saner climes nonsense" that some of you swallow hook, line and sinker.

Reviews are different from allegations: She alleged that Erisco Foods kills people and I guess Erisco should give her one year supply of Erisco Foods as CUSTOMER SERVICE

@immorralcrown, nice write up. Couldn't have said it better.

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

Your comment is ignorant. So because you tasted sugar and the rice you cooked with it tasted like "burnt rubber" it serves as an evidence that the tomatoe paste is not good for public consumption?

Some of them have never tried to build anything in their lives.

Anyone of them who have anything good to their name, should tell us how many bad reviews about their products they have handled very well themselves

Where is the defamation?

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..

I guess you don't understand the words "criticism" and "accusation".

When you use ONLY any tin or sachet tomato paste to cook jollof rice without augmenting it with fresh grinded/blended tomato,(the quantity of the fresh blended tomatoes should be more than that of the paste) that's when the the jollof rice will taste weird.

Therefore, Taaah! you no sabi cook jollof rice.

Sentiment rules Nigeria. That is why majority of Nigerians condemn the action ERISCO Foods takes against the lady. Most nigerians place emotions above facts. The best way to handle the case is for the public to send apologies to the brand and assure the brand that its product will not be boycotted. You cannot save the lady by threatening the company. If you keep threatening the company, the company will choose to die as a hero than dying as a coward.

1.
Right from the moment the lady defamed the product, sentimentalists quickly began to beat drums of boycott against the product. According to ERISCO, the demand for the defamed product sharply dropped following the defamation. But sentimentalists now claim that the defamation would not have affected the brand. They claim that what will affect the brand is the action being taken against the lady. So, the brand should have waited to fold up before challenging the defamation? Before you judge a person, put yourself in his or her shoes.

2.
The lady lied against the product by claiming it kills people. Who will keep quiet when accused of killing people? Who? If you condemn ERISCO Foods but cannot keep quiet when you are accused of murder, you are nothing but a hypocrite.

3.
I would have condemned the action of ERISCO Foods if the lady tendered a sincere apology and the public joined her to ask the brand for forgiveness. The same public that the brand's survival depends on believes the lady's claim about the product and threatens to boycott the product. So, the company is trying to save its reputation.

4.
I know she had miscarriage while in police custody, and it saddens me. But we should also know that many workers in ERISCO Foods may loose their jobs and die of hunger because of her defamation. Are you saying it is right for her to try to kill people but it is wrong for the people to try to defend themselves? ERISCO Foods didn't get her arrested to cause her the miscarriage. ERISCO Foods got her arrested for the sake of justice. The miscarriage is a coincidence, not a deliberate action.

5.
She said the paste contains Sugar. It is true, and the company never said otherwise. On the body of the paste, Sugar is listed as one of the ingredients in the paste. But the sentimentalists quickly joined her to cry that the company is deadly for putting Sugar in the paste. They implied that the company has been deceiving the public. How? Does the company hide the fact that the product contains Sugar? If not that you are stupid, you would have checked the ingredients in the paste before displaying your stupidity.

6.
The company explained that the paste is a multipurpose one that can substitute butter for bread. I saw some comments saying that such paste is being consumed for the same purpose in some Western countries. So, ignorance landed the lady and her fans into this mess. Who does a review without a thorough research?

I know. But how much is ERISCO paying you for this?

If you watch a certain program on food network on how certain food products are being produced you will know all the sachet/canned tomatoes paste contains sugar.

TheDemola:
Well done. Shame on Erisco

Shame on erico how?

Erico didn't say he wld kill the lady. He only said he wld teach her a lesson
And I think he has achieved his aim.

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

You dont deserve freedom.

CHECK WELL,THE GUY NA BID IDIOT HIM BE.THEY ALWAYS LIKE TO VOICE THEIR USELESS OPINION FIRST.

BadBradley:

So, you don't say the truth unless you are paid?

Freedom of speech, freedom of expression fundamental human rights, and yet Edward Snowden and Julian Assange dey on the run from their country.
As Gbaja put am, freedom before speech does not guarantee freedom after speech.
Bottom line u are free to talk, but no talk anyhow. She get herself to blame.

Biglittlelois:

If your criticism is factual then your comment is valid. But if you defame a product without evidence to back it up then you have to face the music from the company you defamed.

That is why the courts are there. We should not be jumping the gun. The courts will interprete if a defamation have occured. We are not qualified to do it. You are just being emotional about this.

If you are confident you have done nothing wrong, you should confidently go to the courts and explain your actions away and follow all the process through to get justice for yourselves.
Recruiting people on social media will not give you the justice you so deserved.

1Sharon:

KayB:
This is a paid write-up obviously and it won't help the company at all.
It's a pity Nigeria has poor consumers protection policy, many brands would have gone down the drain
This same company did same thing to the imported products to gain attention but unfortunately it escalated a trivial issue

This means you don't say the truth unless you are paid.

immortalcrown:

the truth is there's no basis for any criminal complaint here.

ERISCO should sue her civiily.

Paying police to make it a criminal matter is the lowest point of low.
