FCCPC opened its case and is close to half way through its case. Court further adjourned to 14/10/20 on request of defence.
Pursuant to Sections 17(s),(t),(x),(y); 18; 32; 123, 123-125; 127-130 Federal Competition & Consumer Protection Act 2018
On April 11, 2020; the Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (FCCPC) became aware of complaints and dissatisfaction with respect to certain elective/cosmetic surgical procedures carried out by MedContour services. Essentially, the allegations are that MedContour engages in conduct that is considered otherwise unprofessional, misleading and potentially injurious, including resulting in possible fatalities.
The Commission’s initial review indicates that there is sufficient probable cause to inquire into the consumer protection aspects of the representations and services of MedContour, and its operatives. As such, the Commission has opened an active investigation into the practices and processes of MedContour, its promoter, associates and employees.
