FCCPC storms Abuja Chinese supermarket over claims of discrimination against Nigerians

The Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (FCCPC) has stormed the Chinese supermarket nestled within the China General Chamber of Commerce compound in Abuja.

Just days prior, uproar swept through Nigeria as news of the supermarket’s discriminatory policy circulated.

Outraged Nigerians voiced their discontent over being barred entry, with the establishment reserving access exclusively for Chinese citizens.

Shaibu Sanusi, the facility manager of the complex, confirmed the stark divide: Nigerians outside the premises were denied entry, while those within were allowed access to the supermarket’s offerings.

As the FCCPC officials arrived, the supermarket’s doors remained tightly shut. Speculation arose that individuals might be hiding within, seeking to evade a confrontation with the consumer protection agency.
