Empress Gifty chides popular pharmaceutical company for using late mother’s photo on billboards

Speaking in a TikTok live video, Empress disclosed that she wasn’t informed when they were mounting another billboard after her mother’s demise.

According to her, she bought all the drugs and drips from Ernest Chemist when her late mother was admitted at the hospital and she was allowed to pay for everything fully, even after mentioning that she is buying the drugs for her mother.

“The woman you used on your billboard is dead, but I wasn’t informed before using her picture. She wasn’t just buried after demise, there was a proper funeral arrangement. I don’t need your money for anything, but it’s appropriate because you’ve worked with her before, you’ve used her pictures on your billboard nationwide. After her demise, you mount another billboard with her picture.

“When my mother was admitted at the hospital, I bought all the drugs and drips prescribed from Ernest Chemist. I bought drugs every week, the lady at the counter asked me if one person was taken all the drugs and I intentionally told her that the woman they used on their billboard was the one taking the drugs and I paid for everything fully” she said.

The award-winning gospel artiste further called out the pharmaceutical company to do the right thing by showing prove that they still have contract with her late mother.

“Ernest Chemist; do the right thing, put some respect on my mother’s name. Bring the contract you had with my mother let me confirm. It’s been four months and I’ve just kept mute” she stated.
