NIMC mandates registration after generating NIN through BVN
By Modupe Shodeinde
The National Identity Management Commission (NIMC), has mandated the completion of national identity number (NIN) registration at enrollment centres after generating the number through bank verification number (BVN).
The agency through a tweet on Tuesday said the NIN registration must be completed despite NIN generation through BVN.
“You must complete your NIN registration even if your BVN has generated a NIN,” the tweet read.
“If your NIN was generated due to the BVN record harmonization with the National Identity Database, you will not have access to the NIMC mobile app and your NIN-SIM integration will be invalid. Visit an enrollment centre to complete NIN registration.” the tweet read.
The agency had earlier announced that NIN generated by the BVN can be used after it has been updated at the NIMC enrollment centre.
