The National Identity Management Commission (NIMC) has greenlit the deployment of extra enrollment systems to bolster National Identification Number (NIN) registration in the country.

In a statement on Wednesday, the NIMC highlighted the commitment of its Director General/Chief Executive Officer, Abisoye Odusote-Coker, to streamline operations.

The installed systems, operational in all states, have successfully reduced applicant wait times while increasing the daily number of applicants attended to, according to the Head of Corporate Communications, Kayode Adegoke.

It further disclosed that the DG has sent out monitoring and evaluation teams across various centres nationwide to ensure the smooth running of enrolment and modification exercises.

It read in parts, “The team will also ensure strict compliance with her zero-tolerance stance against all forms of extortion and unethical practices.

“Coker-Odusote has emphasized that her administration will not condone extortion of applicants and has since directed that any staff found wanting will be dealt with in line with the provisions of the constitution and extant Public Service Rules.

“She requests that any applicant extorted should report such incident to the following official channels: phone line 08155015388; 07002255646; email – ieu@nimc.gov.ng; nimccustomercare@nimc.gov.ng.”
