The Federal Government has approved the closure of closure activities at the National Identity Management Commission (NIMC)and created twenty new centres within Abuja and its environs.

The directive was issued by the Minister of Communications and Digital Economy, Isa Pantami

A statement issued by NIMC spokesperson Kayode Adegoke on Sunday said the reactivation of 20 centres within the FCT would ‘make the process of NIN enrolment much easier from Monday, January 18th 2021’

It advised residents and visitors to the FCT wishing to enroll for NIN to use any of the 20 NIMC centres.

The Federal Government had ordered telecommunications companies to deactivate the telephone lines of subscribers who failed to link their Subscriber Identification Modules (SIMs) with valid NINs.
