According to reports reaching us, Innjoo’s Lagos office (Innjoo Home) has been shut down by Nigerian Communications Commision due to the company selling phones that are not “NCC type approved.” It was said that the raid happened last weekend and Innjoo office at Trinity Mall Ikeja is presently under locks.
According to a Nairalander:
And so, I went to Innjoo office and service centre on Awolowo way Ikeja on Saturday to fix my broken Injoo One screen and it was under lock and key.
I assumed it was locked because it was a Saturday and went back on Monday morning only to get there and find other Innjoo users hanging around the building. We were told that the office was under renovation but we did not see any materials being moved in nor did we see any signs of renovation going on anywhere in that building.
Eventually we got to know that the building had been shut by the standards organisation of Nigeria (SON) due to the use of sub standard materials and hardware being used to produce Innjoo phones especially Innjoo Fire.
There’s a huge credibility to the story as it appeared on one of the national dailies:
It has been said that the questionable device is the recently released Innjoo Fire but we’re not sure if their other smartphones are affected. At the time of writing this report, we’ve reached out to Innjoo but there has been no reply yet. We will post an update as soon as we’ve gotten a reply.
