Ok forgetting everything about how Earth is not a perfect sphere,
the greatest centripetal acceleration is at the equator. So if you say N - Mg = -Mac, N should equal M(g-ac) which gives a weaker force than the gravitational force.
If the net force is a force towards the center of earth, why should you feel lighter at the equator?
