FULL LIST: FG Cracks Down on 28 Illegal Online Lenders Apps to Protect Consumers

The Federal Government has taken a bold step to sanitize the digital money-lending sector by delisting 28 illegal apps that offer loans to Nigerians.

This was revealed by the Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (FCCPC) in its latest report on approved digital money lender apps.

The report showed that the number of delisted apps increased from nine to 37, while the number of approved apps rose from 154 to 164.

The Commission also said that 54 apps are under its watchlist and will be monitored for compliance with the regulations.

The move by the government is aimed at curbing the harassment and exploitation of Nigerians by the illegal lenders, who often charge exorbitant interest rates, impose unfair terms and conditions, and use unethical methods to recover their loans.
