The Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission has reiterated its commitment to protecting consumers, promoting fair competition, and ensuring the safety of products in the market.
The FCCPC boss said that intelligence and surveillance reports obtained by the commission indicated that certain companies were involved in anti-competitive behaviour. “Ensuring the safety of our people is a core responsibility, and these deceptive practices are unacceptable,” said Abdullahi.“We are looking at their processes to determine if any corners are being cut. If we find evidence of such practices, we will apply the full extent of the law,” he added.
In collaboration with relevant industry bodies, he said that FCCPC had been working with the Steel Manufacturing Association, the Manufacturing Association of Nigeria, and the Standards Organisation of Nigeria, among others.
