Easybuy Continues To Violate The Laws Of Nigeria by dsnet: 2:57pm On Aug 28, 2024 |
Section 35 of the Data Protection Act states clearly that it is a criminal offence for a digital loan app to access the details of their customers to recover its money. EasyBuy has breached this act and has acted criminally. Secondly, the Cybercrime Prohibit and Prevention Act of 2015 states that any person, who knowingly or intentionally transmits any communication through a computer system or network to bully, threaten or harass another person is liable to imprisonment of 10 years and a fine of N25 million. EasyBuy has consistently breached this act. In Nigeria, the Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (FCCPC) is the government agency responsible for maintaining sanity when it comes to protecting consumers. The FCCPC has repeatedly taken action against the abusive activities of loan apps and services in the country. In February this year, after doing some house cleaning of loan apps, the commission published a statement affirming that it was “intensifying enforcement efforts and adopting a zero-tolerance stance towards any exploitation of consumers or abusive conduct, whether in balance calculations, loan default enforcement, or recovery processes.” Indeed, it is understandable that financial service providers need to recover their funds after disbursing loans. This is a valid need. However, with the emergence of loan apps in Nigeria came an abusive approach to loan recovery that can best be described as agbero behaviour. It is definitely also unlawful behaviour. Despite the clear laws and the clampdown by the FCCPC, EasyBuy continues to act with impunity, giving a middle finger to Nigerians and to the government.

dominique:Nigerians need to be educated about loans and percentage. Calculation. It's pathetic these loan apps are exploiting the level of illiteracy and ignorance of most Nigerians. They are feeding fat on people's finances and reputation. The government should step in a stop all sorts of EXPLOITATIONS by these loan apps with strange loan terms and hidden deductions 3 Likes 1 Share |
