Consumer rights are those rights given to a consumer to protect him from being cheated by manufacturers of goods and services. This is achieved by consumer protection laws. Through the instrumentality of these laws, the government aims to protect the rights of consumers. There is a logical, moral, and political force in the proposition that consumers should have the right to take decisions about the allocation of resources for their own needs. This research is an overview of the Federal Consumer and Competition Act of 2018, considering most especially the provisions that contain the rights, protection, and redress afforded consumers of goods and services in order to safeguard themselves against products which are unsafe for consumption and which may cause serious injury. This research also aims at ensuring that there are adequate publications on this topic, which aims at educating the general public on their rights and enforcement of those rights thereto. It also considers some of the lapses in the Act, like the dilemma of enforcement of the rights of the consumer, and proposes some recommendations to make the Act all-encompassing, especially as regards who a consumer really is, in order to ensure that the rights of the consumers are protected and enforced correctly and adequately.
