Digital ID enrollment efforts scale up in Nigeria
Nigeria’s National Identity Management Authority (NIMC) says it is intensifying efforts to get many more citizens and legal residents in the country enroll their biometrics for the National Identification Number (NIN) as issuance figures keep growing by the day.
The pledge comes after statistics from the Nigeria Bureau of Statistics (NBS) reveal that the number of NINs issued climbed by 400 percent within a period of one year.
In May 2023, the NIMC celebrated the 100 million-mark for NIN issuance as Digital Economy Minister Isa Ali Ibrahim was showered with accolades for his efforts in enabling the ID-issuing authority attain that milestone.
