Tingo Group unveils Tingo Electric, Tingo Cola drink at Lagos launch
In a thrilling exclusive event on the 16th of April, 2024 at the Tingo place, Victoria Island, the Tingo Group launched its new products, Tingo Cola and Tingo Electric drinks. Present at the event was His Imperial Majesty, Ooni Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwuyi, Ojaja II, Ooni of Ife who was the official host and was accomplished by his wives, Traditional Chiefs, Senior government officials and media executives.
In his welcome speech, the Ooni who is also the Chairman of Tingo BV beamed with joy as expressed that the success of the product is a dream come true as he has always wanted to be a part of a team that will design, conceptualise and produce a drink that will bring pride to Nigeria and Africa and these products are on the right path to going global.
He also noted that the ingredients used in manufacturing the drinks were about 80-85 percent home sourced and efforts were made by the Tingo Group to ensure that it meets International standard. Ooni stated that he has taken up the responsibility of ensuring that the beverage is a success as he is the brand’s “number one ambassador.”
Founder of Tingo Foods, Dozi Mmobuosi, said the company has been existing for 23 years and Tingo Electric and Tingo Cola represent not only a “triumph in innovation but also a celebration of Nigerian ingenuity,” while also adding that “the team was proud to showcase these exceptional beverages to the world and are deeply grateful for the support of his Imperial Majesty, Ooni Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwuyi, Ojaja II, Ooni of Ife and all esteemed guests.”
The Ooni towards the end of the event requested everyone to have a taste of the beverages and the feedback was positive. Dr Reuben Abati stated that he felt electrified after taking the Tingo electric and casually joked that he is hoping that there will be many Tingo babies in the coming nine months.
The Executive Governor of Nasarawa State, His Excellency Abdullahi Sule, ably represented by the Attorney General of the State, Barrister Shuaibu Labaran Magaji said he is proud to be a part of the product launch and to show his support. He promised to buy and way bill a large number of the product to Abuja and Lafia on the spot and that the product was launched at the right time as the second edition of the Nasarawa Investment Summit is at hand. He asked the Ooni for his presence at the summit and the Tingo Group for collaboration.
On a personal note, the Tingo Cola didn’t have excessive gas and the Tingo Electric drink was mild in the mouth but gave a sensational feeling, both of which were excellent.
The Tingo BV Plc expressed profound gratitude after the feedback and assured the introduction of a variety of new flavours which include Tingo Electra energy drink, Tingo twist, Tingo booze, Ojaja bitters and Ojaja herbal drink.
