Vaniti Lagos has denied claims that it served fake or adulterated drinks to customers, calling the allegations false and impossible. The denial came in a statement posted on the Instagram account of CEO Uyi Ogbebor (@sir_uyi), which emphasized the club's official partnerships with global beverage firms Moët Hennessy through Global Wines and Pernod Ricard through Martell. Management stated these relationships ensure product authenticity and cited supply chain integrity backed by purchase receipts. "The idea that fake drinks could ever be found at Vaniti is not just false; it is impossible given the structure mentioned above," the statement read. The club responded to a TikTok post by a man who claimed he and four friends fell ill after visiting from Moscow, alleging they consumed counterfeit drinks. He provided no proof of purchase or medical documentation, prompting skepticism. Vaniti challenged the man's credibility, noting he does not appear to be based in Nigeria and urging him to produce evidence such as payment receipts. The management questioned the motives behind the claims and launched an internal review. It also invited customers present on the night in question to share their experiences if they encountered any issues.
Uyi Ogbebor claims Vaniti's supply chain makes fake drinks impossible, yet offers no independent audit or third-party verification to support this. The absence of verifiable proof from both the accuser and the club leaves patrons who were present that night exposed to unresolved health and safety concerns. Without receipts or medical reports from either side, the truth hinges on unverified social media statements. Customers who consumed drinks at Vaniti that night have no clear path to accountability.
