Abuja Chinese Supermarket Owner Has Escaped – Workers

The facilities workers at an Abuja-based Chinese supermarket located at the China General Chamber of Commerce said the owner of the supermarket has escaped the premises.

The workers, mostly Nigerians, said this on Monday when the officials of the Federal Competition and Consumer and Protection Commission (FCCPC) stormed the supermarket.

The workers said that the owner of the supermarket, a Chinese lady, Cindy Liu Bei, fled on Monday morning at 8:26am with her family as confirmed on the Closed-Circuit Television (CCTV) camera.

The FCCPC officials subsequently shut the supermarket.

The facility manager of the complex Shaibu Sanusi confirmed that Nigerians from outside the complex do not shop, however, Nigerians within can access it.

While the supermarket remains shut, the consumer protection agency seems to believe that some people are hiding inside in order to avoid confrontation with the agency.
