In a recent court ruling, a jealous lover has been remanded in custody on charges of allegedly murdering his girlfriend. This tragic incident underscores the importance of addressing issues related to jealousy and violence in relationships.
Meanwhile, the Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (FCCPC) has reported a significant increase in the number of delisted loan apps. This figure has risen from nine to 37, signifying a concerning trend in the digital lending space.
The FCCPC has been actively working to regulate the digital money lending industry, aiming to protect Nigerian citizens from harassment and exploitative lending practices. The increase in delisted apps is a direct result of these efforts.
Google, the popular app store platform, has taken decisive action by permanently removing these delisted loan apps from its Play Store. This move is a crucial step in safeguarding consumers from potentially harmful or fraudulent financial services.
Some of the loan apps that have been delisted include Swiftkash App, Cash Door App, Joy Cash-Loan Up To 1,000,000 App, Eaglecash App, Luckyloan Personal Loan App, Getloan App, and Easeloan Apps, among others.
The FCCPC’s continued vigilance in this area reflects its commitment to ensuring that Nigerian consumers are provided with fair and transparent financial services. It is essential to stay informed about these developments to better protect consumers from unscrupulous lending practices.
