Can you tell us more about this Tribunal?

The Competition and Consumer Protection Tribunal was established through an Act of the parliament. The law was passed by the National Assembly in December 2018 and was assented to by Mr President and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, Muhammadu Buhari GCFR in January 2019. We were nominated in 2020 and our names were sent to the Senate for screening and confirmation. After our confirmation, we received our letters of appointments in December 2020.

They supported us and we were able to write to the Minister of Finance and she graciously approved take off contingency funds for us. Other parastatals under the ministry also supported us. The Bank of Industry supported us, the National Automotive Industry and the Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission all supported us.

We were inaugurated on the 4th day of March. We came into this building on 31 May, 2021, and I am sure you are happy that this place exists because there have been positive comments about the office. Even though it is small, it is beautiful. We are heading somewhere. For now, all we are doing is administrative. We are setting up the structure based on our mandate as that of adjudication.
