Court Affirms NB Has Case To Answer Over Used Condom Found Inside Beer
Firm has case to answer in used condom found inside beer, court rules: – A High Court sitting in Enugu State yesterday ruled against Nigeria Brewery over a suit filed by a consumer, Mr. Peter Eze, and his wife, Mrs. Maureen Eze, who claimed to have discovered a used condom inside a Heineken lager beer.
The consumer, a resident of Enugu, is demanding N10 million over alleged health challenges he developed after consuming another bottle of the same brand of beer containing a dead cockroach. At the last adjourned date, Nigeria Brewery had through its counsel, G.M. Nwokoma, filed a preliminary objection, asking the court to strike out the suit for lack of jurisdiction. The company had contended that the since “Plc” was not added to the name Nigeria Brewery, the matter should be struck out as such entity does not exist.
