FCCPC seals major supermarket in Abuja, gives reason

The Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (FCCPC) has sealed one of the major supermarkets in Abuja.

4U Supermarket was sealed by the Commission on Thursday over alleged unfair practices by its management.

FCCPC officials took the action during an enforcement exercise in parts of the nation’s capital, which saw them visit several supermarkets in Abuja to initiate a campaign to enforce price display and quantity compliance.

The crackdown on supermarkets by the Commission is said to be a direct response to concerns raised by Nigerians about the rising costs of goods, which go against the recent strengthening of the naira against major currencies.
