Have you ever noticed advertising all over of leather items like shoes,handbags belts.

In fact some items like sofas cost over 400,000 shillings? d'oh!

The sofas are beautiful; truth must be told some of them are made of synthetic leather that may not last even for two years.

My neighbor bought the sofas in one of the supermarkets about a year ago but she is lamenting her decision.

Material is chipping off,leaving white ugly patches on he once beautiful sofas

Please be careful what you post. I know of one lawyer here on wazua who'd only be too happy to sue you for gross misrepresentation.

Since "your neighbour" could not know it was real or synthetic leather when she bought it, she's proven that she's not an expert at it. So your allegations need some more proof.

I'm trying to help you out in your blogging endeavours. When you post such an article, please have some evidence or sources otherwise you will be sued.

On another note. We have so many dying cows and goats everywhere, why the need for fake leather?

@Alma,
No names have been mentioned i.e brand name or name of the supermarket so how can the suing be done?
@Haron,
Is your neighbour aware of below?
Law giving consumers new rights takes effect
What I don't know is whether the law can be applied backwards i.e before it took effect ?
@biraru,
Toyota Tsusho Corporation is into vehicle sales and distribution of pharmaceuticals..whats the relationship?
