We all want Nigeria and the judiciary system to work, this is one of the ways it work.
Sentiments aside, if the government and every citizen is to be held able without favour, pity the most of us will find ourselves in uncomfortable positions because our actions sometimes go against the law.
We drive without seat belt and license
We drive one way
We liter the environment
We spray naira in parties (bobrisky)
So many things

Yes, NAFDAC did and her claims were false so let her come forth with a prove

Her proof is a matter of opinion. In her own view it's too sugary. Nothing wrong in her expressing her opinion. However, I personally think she took it too far with the part that says "it's killing people".

Anyway, I think there's more to this case that meet the eyes. It's sad enough that she's had miscarriage. May God heal her pain.

If she wins this case, mhennnn, Umeofia may be sued for damages that could take him out of businesses.

Also, the "over my dead body" comment from Eric is too deep. I pray he hasn't speak/ill-wish himself to past. The man is too loud mouthed for my liking. Ordinarily, he should have just allowed the company's media or customer relations to handle the issue.

OlaNurudeen:
Where are the stupids Nafdac.
Someone complain about a product and instead of the complaint to be investigated, the person was arrested.

Nigeria judiciary system is a failure.
Police no get sense all they know is bribe.
Everything just wrong in Nigeria.

Senseless country.

The country no senseless na say plenty senseless people like u full the country na the wahala, do u understand she alleged the product was killing people do know the kind of panic she created now the mans business has been threaten the ones that can't research like urself go leave the product, another batch of emotional ones go boycot that same product

Did she appologise to the company at any time?

dc23:
Even if she lied with malice I don't see how this is a criminal case.

Nigeria Judiciary keeps sinking by the hour. If it was a magistrate court I won't talk much, but how a full federal court takes up this non case and won't dismiss it instantly surprises me.

It could be a criminal case if it's found that there are syndicates behind her actions.

At the moment, the "syndicate point" is still an allegation. There could be people (esp. importers of tomato paste) behind all her actions, including the post and the media interviews.

The fact that she declined to apologize and take back her fake review on the instructions of some netizens, she should face the consequences.
Even when she was informed that any tomato paste with the inscription "tomato mix" is a mixture of so many consumables including sugar, she turned a blind eyes.

This nonsense has got to stop. U make just 1 statement online to someone or about something and they term it cyber stalking?

Stalking is a persistent action of following, trolling and likely offending someone for a reason or no reason.

NAFDAC & SON did but they was a particular time she was told to apologise which she agreed but later she rejected probably she[b] was given some weighty conditions that made her have a rethink [/b]but this is a really trying time for her mostly & her family. Erisco self don para patapata 🥺

There was no weighty conditions. She was asked to delete the comments and tender apology through same Facebook and her lawyer deceived her that she has a case of fundamental rights abuse and she reneged from the agreement that's what led the Erisco owner to approach court.

ooooooh k so that's just it, I thought she was told to tender an apology by posting it in newspaper and also going live, even if its that I don't think it's weighty because now she's the one in prison while her lawyer is at home pummelling fufu & egusi

abdsamad:
So[b] if I say nairaland is a useless cesspit of vipers and demons, Seun should sue me and send me to jail ba?[/b]

This is simply a case of the powerful oppressing the rest of us.

If Buhari's son made the same statement would he be in court now?
If they charge him to court, he'll very likely win on the merits of the case. Same applies to this lady; it's very likely she'll win the case if the case were treated fairly.

And even if she were to lose the case, how exactly has she deserved to lose her freedom?
Calculate how much damage she's done and have her pay for the damages.

This should even be a civil case not a criminal case so I don't know how far up his butt the judge's head had to be to reach this conclusion. O wait, corruption. That makes sense.

I shaa pity us ordinary Nigerians for not having enough sense to see how this is a problem for us. We're there talking about how pained he was. I bet if it's revealed that his company does so and so damage to the environment we'll just look away like nothing happened.

He'll rather die than watch his 40yr reputation get damaged. Newsflah slowpoke: this is your reputation now. Where are the hardcore feminists to meme this as a clear case of male toxicity.

Please stop defending rubbish. Please.

If you say "nairaland is a useless cesspit of vipers and demons"
......that's a soft allegation which you could be true.

But if you then add... "those vipers and demons post messages that makes people commit sweetcide"
.......It becomes a strong allegation which Nairaland can sue you for to defend.

Chioma made her point, but the part she added "it's killing people" was where she got it wrong.

You can make reviews which can be good or bad, but don't make false/defamatory reviews. There's a fine-line difference between a bad review and a defamatory review.

Chioma's review turned from bad review (...it's too sugary) to defamatory review (...it's killing people).

Soshe's remanded in jail because of COULD? Una funny for this country o

nnachukz:
Cash and carry judiciary. Did any entity investigate her claim and find it to be false?

Now, na she suppose involve the police or her lawyer to prove her case to show she is saying the truth but I guess she didn't...there's a way law works, if I accuse you and take you to court,I'll bring evidence now it's left to you to defend the yourself by countering what I brought, no be court go help you defend yourself or help you with evidence,you wey do review suppose get evidence to back up your claims....

Does the tomato paste have more sugar than alternatives?
Does sugar cause diabetes?
Does diabetes kill people?
Has diabetes killed people in Nigeria?


CASE CLOSED!

It's the court that remanded her. And that's fair enough.

This is all shade of wrongful detention over what has saved the lives of so many Nigerians. The poison called tomato 🍅 paste would have sent so many onto the lists of some chronic diseases that could have resulted from continued distribution as it were but because we have a dumb police and judicial systems in place,by his lady continues to suffer. May God protect her

Please don't vouch for anyone, especially if you are not inside the person's mind or directly involved in the person business deals.
Hope you are following up on that guy who got arrested that accused E-money concerning Junior Pope stuff?
People just catching cruise online just to make some money off people's life situation which majority of the times are false.

ChatterHouse:
Don't defame a hardworking business especially in Nigeria where the government policies is not even encouraging SME

CHO CHO CHO you get data

Oya eat watery beans in peace in prison instead of Erisco
All those boycott and cheering where are thou

The best advice for her and her cohort is for her to beg fellow Nigeria to beg Erisco oo

There's no UHURU anywhere for her

She should beg you to beg erisco.

Look at a clown

Where is the NAFDAC review of the product?

The ones I have seen confirm that there is sugar within the product albeit within the amount ed by the agency. There is no confirmation of exactly how much sugar.

Make of that knowledge what you will. However for those of you concerned about sugar intake - you know what to do. Also be checking other similar products. NAFDAC endorses addition of certain amount of sugar to tomato paste.

inoki247:
Lol nobody to call bigot or tribalist here na family matter...



You will come online and say Jargons without proof when the law comes for u we go start to hear cash nd carry judiciary...

Since you know more than NAFDAC Den prove everybody wrong and also sue them all in billions...

But people like you have been insulting glo, MTN and many banks for poor services.....did these companies arrest you dolts?

Your last statement took me dafuq out!!!

Pummelling Fufu and egusi!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣.

Nah the danger of SM be that. Those hailing her without her having any proof are now quiet.

None whatsoever...

That's exactly what she's sued for. i.e to come forward and defend her review.

It's not so simple the way you deposit it up there. You have to now show the nexus with that particular product with empirical evidence, i.e any known case of death as a result of consuming that product.

Does everybody that takes sugar have diabetes? No

Was Sugar content stated on the tomato mix can? Yes

Did Chioma read the content before buying or even before reviewing? I doubt!

Was Chioma intended to buy "tomato paste or tomato mix" ?

.......So you can see the fact that Chioma doesn't need Sugar or indeed too much sugar doesn't mean everybody doesn't need it.

Do you know the sugar content in most of the fizzy/carbonated drinks is almost half of the bottle itself?

luminouz:

Any proof?
She made comments based on her taste and what she noticed after cooking.

You people are just in love with your oppressors, period.

Hello, a customer has the right to leave a bad review.

Go to any brand site and check least ratings , you will find all sought of product condemnation there.

Anybody has a right to make bad reviews, it is not an offence.

You can make reviews which can be good or bad, but don't make false/defamatory reviews. There's a fine-line difference between a bad review and a defamatory review.

Chioma's review turned from bad review (...it's too sugary) to defamatory review (...it's killing people).

nnachukz:

This should be the principal argument of her lawyer. Manufacturers in Nigeria get away with a lot of scheise to the eventual detriment of the common man.

AllenSpencer:


Bad reviews are a norm in any market.

Go the website of any brand you know and go check least rating reviews. They get lambasted often and don’t get people arrested.

Bad review is welcomed.

You will not see femi falaye abi na fala watin and Olanikpekus here because it has nothing to do with political free money.
Saying the truth is now a crime ed by these legal practionals.

Yes saying the truth is what's keeping here there. The product is killing people...let her prove it.

Simply sorry daddy, am sorry would have safe her this stress.
Let's boycott Erisco prudent as if the man is not in real estate

iCauseTrouble:
I once watched an interview on Arise news where the CEO of Erisco said he doesn't mind closing down his business just to get justice and teach this Chioma a lesson.
Mind the type of people you offend and apologize when there is still time for reconciliation

When someone says your business is killing people, it automatically becomes war. Chioma don buy market.

Wahala be like bicycle.
Where. Is nagito tomato farm in Nigeria?
They are only mixing sugar for people to eat.
We know their game.

Trust in a first world country, that woman would have been released a long time.
