According to Adeyinka, the investigation into TLS—a private company offering visa support services to Nigerians—began in March 2025, following complaints from consumers over the non-provision of services they had paid for.
“On the 25th of March, we served TLS a letter in line with our normal complaint resolution process,” she said. “Instead of addressing the complaint, their officers assaulted FCCPC operatives carrying out their lawful duty of enforcing consumer rights.”
The Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (FCCPC) on Wednesday sealed off the TLS Visa Application Centre in Lagos for allegedly obstructing ongoing investigations into consumer rights violations.
The Commission’s Director of Surveillance and Investigations, Mrs Boladale Adeyinka, who led the operation, said the move followed multiple breaches of the FCCPC Act, including assault on government officials and uniformed police officers, and the wilful refusal to honour lawful summons.
