The National Identity Management Commission has given its diaspora National Identity Number enrolment partners 48 hours to activate their licences on an upgraded platform.
In a statement on Monday, the Head of Corporate Communications, Kayode Adegoke, said the upgrade would provide seamless and robust services to Nigerians abroad, and described the facility as more secure.
Adegoke said, “NIMC Diaspora Front-End Partners (FEPs) have been onboarded on the upgraded system with intensive training to equip the FEPs with the prerequisite knowledge on the application and effective management of the new system.
“While all the Diaspora FEPs are required to obtain and activate their NIN enrolment licences on the upgraded platform within the next forty-eight hours (48 hours), diaspora applicants can access enrolment services from the compliant FEPs.
“The Commission apologises for any inconvenience the platform upgrade process might have caused and has set up a dedicated service team to resolve all issues related to diaspora enrolment.
“Diaspora applicants experiencing issues with NIN enrolment should please reach the Commission via nimccustomercare@nimc.gov.ng for timely resolution.”
Adegoke further said NIN enrolment was ongoing across all centres in Nigeria, and applicants could locate the nearest enrolment centres on the NIMC website.
“Nigerians at home or in the Diaspora can also modify their NIN data through the https://selfservicemodification.nimc.gov.ng portal.
“NIN holders are equally enjoined to download the NIMC NINAuth App on either iOS or Google Play Store to instantly verify their NINs, approve who sees their information, take total control of their data and enjoy seamless verification and authentication services,” Adegoke said.
