FG releases names of illegal loan apps
Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that the Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (FCCPC) has listed names of illegal loan apps.
FCCPC also asked Google to remove the 18 loan apps from Playstore for violation of its guidelines.
The commission said compliance with its rules was mandatory, and failure to adhere constitutes a violation of the law.
The 18 loan apps delisted were either operating without approval or violated the Limited Interim Regulatory/ Registration Framework and Guidelines for Digital Lending Guidelines of 2022, FCCPC said.
