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?
YOU stop. Sleeping around is not a figure of speech, that's a literal comment, it's intentional. So your comparison is a false equivalence.

Saying "you're killing me" "they're going to kill us for doing this" "That dress is a killer" "your bad cooking will kill me one day" "my dad will kill me for failing my exam" " that boy will be a ladykiller"

Those are figures of speech. Do you get it now?

Those comments are exaggerations and not meant to be literally. Make una go and read abeg. And stop pretending like you don't understand how people play around with words.

If you understand it, explain what it is ?

When parents say "I'm going to kill child" or people say " I'm going to kill you" do they mean it literally? Or is an exaggeration?

You probably never went to school, so English literature is beyond you.
Madam stop being delusional. Tell someone you will kill them and the person gets murdered in their sleep that night. Let me see you tell the court that your threat to kill the person was figure of speech. If you no get life sentence, call me baskart. wink

Yeah and I'm guessing the the term lady killer literally means a guy that's kills women for a living.

Stop being dumb and act like you went to school. If no evidence indicated that person carried out their threat and it was all a coincidence, why would they be arrested? Try dey travel or watch crime documentaries. That's not how things are done.

Did it affect sales ?? Yes or know... if he proves it in court that sale started to go down after her so called figure of speech...she will be a goner ... straight to jail
Sales or no sales, if she's guilty (which she is), she's getting punished (jail time or otherwise). The effects on sales only comes in when damages are being claimed. It will determine the amount of fine she pays or even how many years she spends in jail.

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.

Defamation is not review. Defamation is lying against a person or thing. Chioma lied that ERISCO tomato paste kills. Review is saying the truth about a person or thing, whether the truth is sweet or not. Chioma is not being punished for her review of the paste. She is being punished for her defamation of the paste.

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?
The point is nothing the woman said warrants the kind of barbaric treatment she got as a nursing mother. This got people upset and is almost unforgivable.

Nobody said the woman wasn't wrong or was completely right but 2 wrongs don't make a right.

Lady killer is different from lady killing funke and the same funke is dead ... I don't think u have ever been to a court b4 ... the case is still ongoing, the only thing that can save that woman from getting convicted is if Erasco decides to drop the case ... if he doesn't, that woman would be found guilty ... as long as Nafdac have given the product a pass mark...madam, she is screwed...

I hope someone accuses you of murder and the public joins in condemning you. Then I will see how you would react to it

Yesterday someone said I was dressed to kill. Another person said my dress is a killer.

Going by your logic, me and my dress should both be detained right? That's how dumb you all sound.

Theres a thin line, she passed it, she shouldn't be punished like she killed someone, i think she has a good ground to sue especially cos of the preg loss..
She crossed the thinnest line of it and the law understands that. She defamed the company through her allegations of its products "killing people" in order to advertise for her favorite brands. You don't do review of a product like that. There's a course called LITERARY CRITICISM. I think it'd be good if you research it. If you do a review for Coca-Cola, you don't bring in how Pepsi taste and you don't allege unless you have your evidence it has harm, in this case, kill people. Presence of freedom of speech and expression isn't freedom from consequences of actions. SHALOM.
