Abuja Chinese Supermarket Owner Appears Before FCCPC

The owner of the Abuja-based Chinese supermarket sealed for not allowing Nigerians to shop at the facility, Liu Bei, has appeared before a tribunal at the Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission.

The latest development followed a summons notice and threat of sanctions by the FCCPC on Monday after it sealed her store.

Giving an update FCCPC wrote, ” Update: Owners of the Abuja Chinese Supermarket facing allegations of discriminatory practices responded to our summons today to answer questions regarding the allegations. FCCPC operatives have conducted an inspection of the facility.”

“We will continue to provide updates as the investigation progresses.”

It was reported earlier on Sunday that the supermarket had implemented a policy restricting entry solely to Chinese nationals, excluding Nigerians from patronising the establishment.
