NIN Registration: Federal Government bends, allows Network Providers, Banks to register at their offices

The Federal Ministry of Communication has changed direction on National Identification Number (NIN) and it has made it possible for all network providers and banks to to commence the act of the registration for Nigerians

However, Nigerians who are yet to achieve the feat have been instructed by the Ministry of Communication to now work into their Network Providers' offices and Banks and ensure their Registration with comfort.
In a report released to caveat times by the National Identity Management Commission, the decision is to abate the shove at the NIMC enrollment centers across the federation. the new development by the NIMC will equally endear many Nigerians to register without queuing for long hours.
 
Since Federal Government gave telecommunication companies the directives to block Nigerians without NIN, pressure has been on the NIMC enrollment centers across the federation. Despite the second wave of COVID-19, people still gather in thousands at the enrollment centers.

The federal government has finally yielded to the call of Nigerians to permit banks and telecommunication companies to register Nigerians for the number.
The NIMC has also extended the deadline for registration to March as February 9 is no longer feasible.
