Three Nigerian authorities worked jointly with the country’s police force to raid several allegedly illegal digital loan businesses operating in Lagos on Friday., digital lending platforms GoCash, Okash, EasyCredit, Easi Moni, KashKash, and Speedy Choice were among the busted companies.
The CEO of FCCPC, Babatunde Irukera, said that they have been investigating these companies in 2022 since customers started complaining about alleged violations of their private data. “Because of the lockdown, people needed small and instant loans to sustain, which is understandable. But, over a period of time, people started to complain about the malpractice of the lenders so we started tracking it,” he added.
According to their findings, the interest rates charged by digital loan companies appear to violate the ethics of how loan lending works, and that the loan companies had indeed violated the private information of customers by sharing them with third parties.
