Samsung – Bamboozling the public Part II

I realised that there is a post floating on the net cautioning the public against made in China Samsung phones. The truth of the matter is that even Samsung Ghana sells phones that are made in China so who are they trying to fool.

This dastardliness of false propaganda that is forced down the throats of consumers is overwhelmingly malicious and smacks of intentional deceit and chicanery. How can it be said that fake Chinese Samsung phones are on the market when Samsung Ghana is selling the same phones that read “Made by Samsung” and the accompanying battery “Made in China”. This is the tomfoolery with which business is being handled in Ghana under the watchful eyes of Standards Board and the other relative authorities.

Then those same people employed by Samsung sing the Sam-un-sung song of perpetual blindness, albeit, deliberately, to further corrupt the system with erroneous malfeasance in the way of perceived connivance with unscrupulous brutes in influential positions.

I have always posited that such businesses needed to go through strict scrutiny because, in effect, the burden of debt is transferred unto the Ghanaian consumer, who is really struggling to make ends meet under trying circumstances.

Proof is not difficult to adduce, so attached to this article are a couple of photos that tell the whole Samsung story.
