MTN Nigeria will be queried regarding widespread grievances, including undelivered data services, unexplained data depletion, and inadequate customer care support.

Air Peace Limited is under scrutiny for alleged exploitative ticket pricing, with a particular focus on significant price increases for bookings on domestic routes.

The FCCPC emphasized that the inquiries align with the Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Act (FCCPA) 2018 provisions, specifically Sections 17, 18, 32, 33, 80, 110, 111, 112, and 113.

These sections empower the Commission to investigate practices that infringe on consumer rights, disrupt market fairness, or foster unfair competition.
