The Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission, FCCPC, has launched an investigation into the exit of ride-hailing firm, Uber, from Nigeria.
The Chief Executive Officer, CEO, of the FCCPC, Tunji Bello, disclosed this on Sunday while speaking to Bloomberg
According to him, the commission is looking into the manner of the exit, particularly in respect of unfulfilled services to customers.
DAILY POST recalls that Uber, on September 2, announced plans to exit Nigeria and Uganda, effective September 2.
“After a thorough review, we have taken the difficult decision to wind down operations in Nigeria and Uganda, effective September 2, 2026. This decision is limited strictly to these two markets and does not impact our operations across the rest of the continent,” Uber had said.
After the announcement, industry rivals like Bolt and inDrive said they were looking to expand their market share by filling the vacuum.
