Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it CEO of ERISCO, Eric Umeofia, threatening to kill Chioma Okoli over bad reviews.
Inhibehe Effiong, Chioma Egodi Jr’s counsel, has raised the alarm over threats made against his client and her family by Eric Umeofia, president and CEO of Erisco Foods Ltd., and the Nigeria Police Force.
In a statement titled ‘Hold Chief Eric Umeofia and Erisco Foods Ltd. Responsible If Anything Happens to Chioma Okoli and Her Family’, Effiong stated on Saturday that Umeofia knowingly publicised his client’s home address on national television and social media while making public a letter of apology that his client was compelled to write.
“What is supposed to be the private residence of my client has been publicised to the whole world and is trending all over social media without regard for the security and safety of Chioma, her husband, and her entire family,” the letter read in part.
“This irresponsible action by the President of Erisco Foods Limited with the active connivance of the Nigeria Police Force has put the lives of Chioma and her family under threat.”
Reacting to the development, the lawyer said he stepped in as Egodi’s legal representative after she came back from the police custody in Abuja.
Egodi’s husband, Okoli narrated how she was arrested by three policemen in the church premises in Lagos, and flown to Abuja where she was detained and asked to write an apology letter.
