Asaba Group Holdings, Victor Edozien: Federal Judge Formally Dismisses Two-Year Effort

Federal Judge Formally Dismisses Two-Year Effort By Philadelphia Company To Unlawfully Damage Vedozi Inc’s Business; Gives Victor Edozien Clear Victory.

After two years of vigorously defending against meritless multiple lawsuits brought by Philadelphia-based Cintron Beverage Group or “CBG”, through its principal owner Wes Wyatt, Vedozi, Inc. and its principal, Victor Edozien, are pleased to announce that they have won.

The dismissal confirms Edozien’s long-held resolve that CBG’s case was without foundation and not entitled to a ruling that sought monetary compensation and a cessation of lawful and legitimate business activities outside of the United States where Vedozi Inc.’s business partners have established a global brand known as Cintron Premium Energy Drink.

Wes Wyatt’s CBG erroneously claimed that Vedozi Inc. and Victor Edozien were infringing U.S. trademarks (which had not even been registered and are being contested in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office),based primarily on nonsensical allegations relating to lawful and legitimate business activities engaged inby Vedozi’s business partners outside the United States.

“There was never a doubt in my mind that all of the claims against Vedozi and Mr. Edozien lacked meritand it was only a matter of time before they would be dismissed. I am gratified that my clients were fully exonerated from the baseless allegations made against them,” said Vedozi’s counsel, Kevin B. Hirsch ofMichigan-based Jaffe Raitt Heuer & Weiss, P.C.

The two-year long attempt by Wes Wyatt’s CBG to damage Vedozi’s business interest was finallydismissed by Judge Sanchez “with prejudice” which means that they cannot be resurrected. All of CBG’sclaims have been dismissed. The beginning of the end came when the Judge refused CBG’s nefariousattempts to go after Victor Edozien individually. CBG’s misguided efforts to go after other Edozienbusinesses -- including The Asaba Group, Inc. and AG Manufacturing, Inc.-- which had no connection tothe beverage industry or any involvement whatsoever in the activities alleged in the lawsuit, also failedspectacularly.

CBG finally folded once and for all when Wes Wyatt, as the Chairman of CBG, agreed to dismiss all of theremaining claims brought by CBG without receiving any money from Vedozi Inc., Edozien or anyone else.Victor Edozien expanded on this theme: “From the beginning I have always said these lawsuits werebaseless and a brazen attempt by CBG to aggressively assert rights they do not have or own! This case
was also unsuccessful in its attempt to damage the character, reputation, and integrity of myself and mybusiness partners. I was adamant that I would never pay one dime to make these frivolous allegations goaway and I DID NOT! Vedozi Inc. has a bright future and my partners and I are now free to move forwardand aggressively execute our global business plans. This victory serves as a reminder that any similarattempt to misappropriate Vedozi's interest will be contested vigorously anywhere in the world. Let this beclear to potential adversaries: We have the resources, courage, relentless determination, and perseveto say to them– ‘There is a line that cannot be crossed and there is a point beyond which they must never advance’ ”
