How the Guangzhou-based battery brand built decades of trust and recognition in the Nigerian market

For decades, Tiger Head batteries have been a familiar name across Nigeria — powering radios, flashlights, and countless everyday devices. Known for reliability and affordability, the brand has become a household staple and a trusted name among traders, retailers, and consumers alike.

A Legacy Born in 1928

The story of Tiger Head batteries begins in 1928 with the founding of the Guangzhou Battery Factory in China. Over the years, the company grew into one of Asia’s foremost battery manufacturers, producing a range of dry-cell and rechargeable batteries under the Tiger Head brand.

The factory’s expansion beyond China saw it enter multiple markets across Africa, where its products quickly became known for their durability and cost-effectiveness. Nigeria, one of Africa’s largest and most dynamic consumer markets, became a key destination for the brand’s global reach.

Strong Presence in Nigeria

In Nigeria, Tiger Head batteries are more than just an imported product — they are part of the country’s commercial landscape. The brand established a local presence through Tiger Head (Nigeria) International Resource Co., Ltd, ensuring direct engagement with the Nigerian market.

From major cities like Lagos, Ibadan, and Kano to rural communities, Tiger Head batteries are widely distributed through authorized purchase points and retail outlets. Their affordability and reliability have made them especially popular for use in torches, radios, and small household electronics — essential tools in areas with irregular power supply.

The brand’s consistency has also made it a trusted choice among local retailers, who often view Tiger Head as synonymous with dependable battery performance.

Recognition and Quality Assurance

Tiger Head’s long-standing operation in Nigeria has not gone unnoticed by national regulatory bodies. The brand’s products have been certified under the Standards Organisation of Nigeria (SON) Conformity Assessment Programme (SONCAP) — a mark of compliance with Nigeria’s import and safety standards.

This certification reflects the company’s commitment to maintaining international quality standards, ensuring that its products meet the energy needs of Nigerian consumers while adhering to local regulatory frameworks.

Such recognition has strengthened consumer confidence and reinforced the brand’s credibility in the Nigerian marketplace.

Product Availability and Accessibility

Tiger Head batteries are readily available through major Nigerian e-commerce platforms such as Jumia Nigeria, as well as through physical retail networks across the country. The brand’s widespread accessibility has contributed to its enduring popularity, especially in households and small businesses that rely on battery-powered devices for daily operations.

In a market where affordability often determines purchasing decisions, Tiger Head has managed to maintain competitive pricing while preserving the durability and longevity that first earned it loyalty among Nigerian consumers.

A Brand that Stands the Test of Time

Nearly a century since its founding, Tiger Head continues to adapt to changing consumer needs and technological trends. In Nigeria, the brand’s sustained presence underscores its commitment to providing reliable energy solutions that power everyday life — from rural homes and street vendors to small businesses and students.

Tiger Head’s story in Nigeria is not merely one of commercial success but of trust, consistency, and cultural recognition. Its long history in the Nigerian market stands as proof that legacy brands can continue to thrive by staying true to their quality and understanding the needs of their customers.

Declare Your Lineage – Royal Family Tells Musician KWAM 1 Over His Interest In Becoming Next Awujale Of Ijebuland

Published

KWAM 1, in a letter dated December 3, 2025, addressed to the chairman of the Fusengbuwa Ruling House in Agunsebi Quarters, Ijebu-Ode, announced his interest in the stool, describing himself as a “bonafide son” of the ruling house.

The Fusengbuwa ruling house of Ijebu-Ode, next in line to produce the new Awujale of Ijebuland, Ogun State, has instructed Fuji musician Wasiu Ayinde, popularly known as KWAM 1, to confirm his family’s royal lineage to validate his membership in the ruling house.

KWAM 1, in a letter dated December 3, 2025, addressed to the chairman of the Fusengbuwa Ruling House in Agunsebi Quarters, Ijebu-Ode, announced his interest in the stool, describing himself as a “bonafide son” of the ruling house.

KWAM 1 also stated that his candidacy aligns with Ijebu customary law and the Ogun State Chieftaincy Laws.

In an interview with Punch, the Chairman of the ruling house and former National President of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Nigeria, Abdulateef Owoyemi, said only bonafide members of the family would be allowed to participate in the selection process.

Owoyemi explained that KWAM 1, Olori Omooba of Ijebu land and others interested in the stool have been directed to complete the Fusengbuwa ruling house royal lineage data form.

According to him, the form, which requires contenders to trace their genealogy back seven generations, ensures that only genuine princes from the family can participate, thereby blocking “strangers” from claiming the throne.

He said, “The first step for anyone interested in contesting for the Awujale throne is to declare their lineage by filling the standard Fusengbuwa ruling house royal lineage data form. Once confirmed as a legitimate member of the ruling house, they can then apply for the expression of interest form.

“We have told him, just like everyone else interested in the Awujale throne, that the first step is to declare his lineage. He will do this by completing the royal lineage data form, showing his full name, which parent and grandparent he descends from, and continuing up to seven generations.

“The completed form will be signed and submitted to the head of the ruling house unit of the Fusengbuwa ruling house, who will affirm that he is a genuine member. Only then will the process move forward.”

Owoyemi emphasised that although the application window for the throne officially closed on December 5, KWAM 1 had been given a five-day extension, which would lapse on December 10.

He noted, “We won’t shut anybody out of picking the next Awujale, but we must ensure that you are a legitimate member of Fusengbuwa. Every right comes with responsibilities. For a royal family, everyone must prove their legitimacy by completing the royal lineage data form.

“When we receive the form, we will review it meticulously. If clarification is needed, we will contact the applicant. We welcome men of influence who will use their influence to enhance the throne, not to claim it, ensuring that what truly belongs to our family is preserved.”

Owoyemi explained that the local government has given them 14 days to select candidates, and the ruling house hopes to have a new Awujale by the second or third week of January 2026.

He added, “The local government has given us 14 days to select candidates, which expires on December 18. After that, the kingmakers have seven days to deliberate and choose one candidate, whose name will be forwarded to the governor.

“Legally, the government then has 21 days to conduct background checks and security clearance, allowing for objections or protests. After this period, the State Executive Council will ratify the nominee, and the governor will announce the next Awujale, after which coronation rites will commence.

“So, combining the candidate selection, kingmakers’ deliberation, and legal objection period, we are looking at around 42 days. Therefore, we expect the next Awujale to emerge between the second and third week of January.”
