But, the reality is that many businesses deal unethically with consumers, leaving them dissatisfied and helpless.”
Ayojimi added, In putting this together, we are urging regulators to necessary actions in protecting consumers. We are equally telling businesses that ethical compliance is in their interest too, because it helps the build trust, gain customer loyalty, increase their sales, among other benefits.”
