Nigeria’s Data Protection Bill (the “Bill”), published by the National Information Technology Development Agency ('NITDA') on October 4, 2022, aims to create the Nigeria Data Protection Commission (the “Commission”), which will be responsible for regulating the processing of personal data and other similar matters.
The Bill outlines the requirements for the processing of personal data. It requires controllers to undertake Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIAs) for high-risk data processing activities, appoint a Data Protection Officer (DPO) with expert knowledge of data protection laws, and ensure that personal data is processed lawfully and fairly, along with other obligations.
The Bill also sets out the framework for investigations, compliance orders, enforcement orders, judicial reviews, and civil remedies related to enforcement.
The Bill is currently under review by Nigeria’s Ministry of Communication and Digital Economy before its onward submission to the National Assembly for approval and eventual assent by the President. The legislation would come into force upon such assent by the President of Nigeria.
Securiti enables organizations to comply with Nigeria’s Data Protection Bill through AI-driven PI data discovery, DSR automation, documented accountability, enhanced visibility into data processing activities, and AI-driven process automation.

A data subject is entitled to the following rights with respect to the processing of their personal data:
The right to confirm, without constraint or unreasonable delay, whether the controller or a processor working on their behalf is storing or otherwise processing the data subject's personal information.
The right to access a copy of their personal data in a generally used electronic format without constraint or unreasonable delay, unless doing so would result in the data controller incurring unreasonable expenses, in which case the data controller may request the data subject to cover some or all of those costs.
The right to correction of erroneous, out-of-date, incomplete, or misleading personal data, or erasure of such data if correction is not practical or appropriate, without any constraint or unreasonable delay.
The right to deletion of personal data without constraint or undue delay where personal data is no longer necessary or the data controller has no other basis for retaining the data.
The right to restriction of data processing, without constraint or unreasonable delay, until a request or objection from the data subject is resolved.
The right to withdraw his consent to the processing of personal data.
The right to object on grounds relating to their particular situation to the processing of their personal data.
The right not to be subject to a decision based solely on the automated processing of personal data, including profiling, which produces legal or similarly significant effects concerning the data subject.
The right to data portability entitles data subjects to get their personal information from a data controller in a format that will allow for easier reuse in various contexts.
The Commission shall be responsible for implementing the Bill.
A data controller shall bear the burden of proof for establishing a data subject’s consent.
The Commission may impose fees or levies required to be paid by data controllers and data processors of major importance.
A data subject who is aggrieved by the decision, action, or inaction of a data controller or data processor in violation of the Bill, subsidiary legislation, or orders, may lodge a complaint with the Commission. A person who is not satisfied with an order of the Commission may apply to the appropriate court within thirty days after the date the order was made for judicial review thereof.
Under the Bill, the Commission may fine data controllers or processors of major importance for an amount up to, the greater of, NGN 10 million and 2% of their annual gross revenue derived from Nigeria in the preceding financial year.
For data controllers or processors other than those of major importance, the Commission may impose a fine for an amount up to, the greater of, NGN 2 million and 2% of their annual gross revenue derived from Nigeria in the preceding financial year.
A data subject who suffers injury, loss or harm as a result of a violation of the Bill by a data controller or data processor, or a recognized consumer organization acting on behalf of such a data subject, may recover damages by way of civil proceedings in the appropriate court from such data controller or data processor.
