A popular loan app has taken a drastic measure to collect debts from its defaulting customers. The app posted photos of 87 debtors online, serving as a public reminder to settle their loans promptly. The photos were uploaded across three separate videos, with a straightforward caption: “Please settle your loans.”
This move has raised concerns about the invasion of privacy and the potential consequences for those whose photos have been shared online. The federal government has been taking steps to regulate online loan companies, citing breaches of Nigeria’s data laws and other damages.
