A group of men has accused the management of Pavilion Hotel and Suites, Aiyepe, Ogun State of installing secret cameras in rooms.
The men made a video which has gone viral on social media where they challenged the hotel management for hiding cameras in rooms.
They said they discovered a camera inside the air conditioner in their rooms.
The men also alleged that the camera has recorded their naked bodies.
National admin secretary of the Nigeria Hotel Association Jijiwin Akpovwovwo told BBC Pidgin that the act could get the hotel expelled from the association.
“Installation of cameras inside guest rooms is very wrong, it is invasion of guest privacy and it is devilish. The punishment for any hotel that does such is expulsion from the association,” he said.
Mr Akpovwovwo added that hotels “can install cameras in the corridor, staircase, back of the hotel but not inside rooms.”
Chief executive officer for the Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (FCCPC) Babatunde Irukera said Nigerians have right to privacy and that it was not right for anybody to leak their secrets.
Mr Irukera said there are cases where only the government has the right to violate the right to privacy.
He added that the FCCPC has begun investigating the matter.
