This is a very good step to start with.
It is also good to know they have extended it for Nigerians to register and get their NIN.
But overall, with this NIN, we are on the pathway to a great nation.
This is one of the first thing that made developed nation what they are right now.

Let us educate Nigerians on the benefits and advantages of this so much talked about NIN.

And this is the kind of information that should be passed around on this forum to sanitize people about the advantages of NIN, and not all the negatives about it that we keep reading here everyday.
That is what foreign forums thrive on to grow big and have support from Government and Private sectors.

Back to the NIN issue,
NIN, help provide accurate records about actual living/dead persons in every region of the country help keep track of actual transactions as well as movement of people within and out of the country, it helps confirm which individuals are in actual need of particular Government services .

When it comes to access to vital services (like passport issuance, banking services, land transactions, insurance services, pension, health insurance, payment of taxes, voter’s registration, consumer credits, and all Government services), your NIN becomes necessary for:
cutting down the time needed for verifying documents to properly identify you in order to access the services you require

Reducing errors in allocation of services to the right people.

Prevention of fraud (419) where someone else impersonates you, verification of the real identity of other people you go into financial or business transactions with or even people you wish to employ such as house helps.
It ensures you are properly identified when receiving health services, e.g. verifying the actual blood types of blood donors at hospitals.
Verification of voter eligibility during elections.

Imagine you walk into an Immigration office to apply for an international passport.
You are asked for information verifying your identity and you just give them a number and instantly the Immigration officials connect to the National Identity Database – all your required information appears on their computer screen.
They can only see information they are authorised to see.
Done, your identity is verified – no need to go get extra documents, spend more money, just to prove who you are.
That is the convenience provided by your NIN.

It’s the same thing when you go to process a driver’s licence, you would only need to present your NIN and your identity would be verified.


This is how it is done in saner climes we all want to emulate.

We should create a full thread to keep educating more people about the importance of NIN.

Slow and steady we will get to the country of our dreams.
God bless Nigeria.

Many people don’t know the benefits of this linking of the NIN to their lines. Everything to them is politics.

We will get there.

God bless you.

In the case of Nigeria, it will never be what you're presenting above. There will surely be bottlenecks, deprivation and oppression. The ruling aristocrats will use the data base and personal information to their own favour. Sebi we have Nigeria police? Is it working for Nigerians? Hell no!!! So NIN is good but may still not serve the purpose.

It is on record that government borrowed heavily to provide Covid-19 Palliatives but how many people got Palliatives? What of MSE and Covid-19 economic revival grants? How many people benefitted?

Triquetra:
Some of the network providers are very unserious, after linking your NIN with the code, they won't send you a confirmation message whether or not it has been successfully linked.
the next day, they will still send you message to be threatening you about being blocked if you don't do it again...

abeg I get better thing to worry about jere...

Re: 56.2 Million NIN Linked To Sims, Says NCC by Joseph08(m): 7:23am On Feb 03, 2021
I will do mine probably next year (2022) that's if the crowd have reduced otherwise I will extend to (2023).

Maybe then I can register around my street when more centres are available.

I have better things to worry about.

Another government in Nigeria comes into power in 2023

They will start their own NIN registration again wasting public funds.

Nigeria is not balance at all.

ISSUE NIN TO ALL OBJ'S NATIONAL IDENTITY CARDS.

I support your suggestion.

Why can "t we have a continuity policy in Nigeria.

There are so many people with Obasanjo government issued NATIONAL ID CARD

I am wondering why the federal can not use that to issue NIN.

Federal government is complaining NO FUND NO FUND but they are the biggest waster of public funds because of policy inconstitencies.

With the repeated shift of the deadline day.

I don't see this NIN registration exercise being successful.


Most things that work in other climes, often fail here.

The registration exercise should be made convenient for members of the public.

Working class people should be provided with the medium to do their NIN card registration from their office they are working.

I think u got it wrong. N56m here refers to number of NINS i.e 56m individuals with NiN have linked thier sims. Remember one NIN can be linked to Seven sims. If I am not wrong most people in Nigeria have more than one sim.

Number of sims does not correlate with number of NINs. Because many people have more than one sim, and each person is to have only one NIN.

This is synonymous with Social Security Number (SSN), if you don't have that in some countries abroad, you will just be living like a corpse, without being able to do anything in life, a corpse will even be better than your as$! wink
