Erisco Saga: Knocks, Kudos Over Bail Conditions For Chioma
Nigerians have reacted to the conditions laid by the federal high court in Abuja for Chioma Okoli’s bail, over a negative review she made against Erisco Foods Tomatoe paste.
Recall that Chioma was sued over a Facebook post she shared on September 17, 2023, where she claimed she purchased Nagiko Tomato Mix from Erisco Foods, the day before and found it utterly sugary.
The bail conditions set for Chioma by Justice Peter Lifu, of the Abuja Federal High Court, on Friday included the sum of N5m and two sureties in like sum.
The Justice Lifu further expounded that one of the sureties must be the defendant’s spouse or a blood relative with a variable source of income who resides within the jurisdiction of the court.
The judge also ordered the sureties to deposit a passport photograph each, adding that Chioma should deposit her international passport if any.
Reacting to the update on social media, some netizens expressed displeasure, while others commended the Court, adding that the bail conditions will serve as a lesson to the mother of three.
