CurrentReport Blog Former federal lawmaker Shehu Sani has sparked controversy with his call for the demolition of a Chinese supermarket in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja. The uproar follows allegations that the supermarket barred Nigerians from shopping there, prompting calls for government intervention.
Located at the China General Chamber of Commerce along Umaru Musa Yar’Adua Road, the supermarket’s reported directive to security officers not to admit Nigerians has stirred outrage among concerned citizens. Many are demanding that the Nigerian government take action to ensure equal access for all citizens.
In response to the unfolding situation, Shehu Sani took to his official platform to voice his concerns, advocating for the enforcement of Nigerian laws. He emphasized the importance of accessibility for all citizens, questioning why a supermarket operating in Nigeria would exclude Nigerians.
Sani’s stance has ignited a debate on the rights of citizens and the obligations of foreign businesses operating within Nigeria. As discussions continue, the fate of the controversial supermarket remains uncertain, with calls for compliance with Nigerian regulations growing louder.
