Nigeria enacted the Nigeria Data Protection Act in 2023, creating the NDPC as a statutory regulator and building on the earlier NDPR regulation of 2019. The Act follows GDPR-style principles with lawful bases, data subject rights, and breach notification. A distinctive feature is the category of data controllers and processors of major importance, which face heavier obligations including registration and, for the most serious breaches, fines up to 10 million naira or 2 percent of annual gross revenue. The Act also continues the practice of requiring data protection compliance organisations to support audits. Consent must be freely given, specific, and informed. Notices in English are common.
