FCCPC storms Chinese supermarket over alleged discrimination against Nigerians

The Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (FCCPC) has stormed the Chinese supermarket nestled within the China General Chamber of Commerce compound in Abuja.

Outraged Nigerians voiced their discontent over being barred entry, with the establishment reserving access exclusively for Chinese citizens.
