SAMSUNG GALAXY GRAND 2 FAILS IN NIGERIA

Lagos – Nigerians traveling abroad have been alerted on the implication of buying any electronic gadgets and mobile phones produced by SAMSUNG, as such a product might end up not functioning in Nigeria.

The warning became necessary following the bitter experience by some Nigerian pilgrims , who bought Samsung mobile phones in Saudi Arabia, but discovered they can not function in Nigeria.

According to victim, a Nigerian journalist, Alhaji Raheem Adeshina Ibrahim who just returned from Hajj “many of the 2016 pilgrims including myself bought the Samsung Galaxy grand2 mobile phones at the rate of 300riyals each in Mecca and Medina respectively, but we are all shocked when the phones which are working well over there stop working immediately we got to Nigeria”.

“I personally made efforts by giving it to some technicians who advised that the phones should be taken to Samsung office for proper identification of the cause and repair”, he said.

Alhaji Ibrahim hinted that when he took the phones to Samsung office, situated at Saka Tinubu Street, Victoria Island, he was told that the phones are made for another region and not Nigeria.

“I now asked the lady on the counter on what to do on the dead. phones, her response was that we should find our way to take them back to where we bought them to change them, despite my complain that the phones were bought in Saudi Arabia”, he lamented.

He added, “It was when I returned home and told some electronic technicians about my experience that I was told of how Samsung has made many Nigerians victims. I was told that even electronic gadgets were not left out the fraudulent act by the company as the victims were not inform before buying the products”.

Alhaji Raheem stressed further that he was reliably informed that even the Samsung products sold to people in Nigeria are always faulty.

“Nigerians who traveled to foreign countries on visiting, particularly those going for pilgrimage should desist from patronizing SAMSUNG products so as not to become another victims”, he warned.
