National Coordinator of the Nigeria Data Protection Bureau (NDPB), Dr. Vincent Olatunji has ordered a forensic investigation in line with Article 4 of the Nigeria Data Protection Regulation (NDPR) against Phillips Consulting and the United Bank for Africa Plc, in what it called the violation of NDPR.

A statement by the Legal, Enforcement & Regulations Lead of NDPB, B. B. Bamigboye Esq. said the complaint against Phillips Consulting is in connection with the activities of online lending platforms who willfully breach the privacy of citizens whilst the investigation of UBA PLC pertains to allegations of infringement on the governing principles of data protection.

The statement noted that the NDPR mandates organizations to carry out due diligence before engaging in any data processing; and to ensure that parties are accountable for any infringement on fundamental rights and freedoms of data subjects.

The Bureau, however, warns all data controllers and processors to eschew all forms of data processing that are detrimental to citizens as well as the economy and security of the country.
