About the Client
The National Identity Management Commission (NIMC) established by the NIMC Act No. 23 of 2007, has the mandate to establish, own, operate, maintain and manage the National Identity Database in Nigeria, register persons covered by the Act, assign a Unique National Identification Number (NIN) and issue General Multi-Purpose Cards (GMPC) to those who are citizens of Nigeria as well as others legally residing within the country.

Our Solution
To efficiently register Nigerians for the National Identity Number (NIN), we propose leveraging revalidated Front-End Partners (FEPs) as mandated by NIMC, ensuring compliance through license verification. Registration centres will be expanded—including mobile units for rural areas—while promoting online pre-enrollment to reduce wait times. Public awareness campaigns will emphasise the NIN’s importance, targeting banks, telecoms, and immigration services for integration. Robust monitoring will prevent duplicate registrations and FEP malpractice, using NIMC-approved biometric systems for seamless data capture and synchronisation with the Central Identity Database.
Reduced Fraud & Duplication
Biometric verification and FEP monitoring will eliminate duplicate entries and identity fraud.
Improved Data Accuracy
Revalidated FEPs ensure clean, reliable data in the National Identity Database.
High Enrollment Coverage
Result
This structured approach will significantly increase NIN enrollment, covering over 90% of Nigeria’s population while reducing identity fraud. Streamlined processes will cut registration time, and mandatory FEP revalidation will ensure data integrity. Ultimately, harmonization with key services (SIM registration, banking, passports) will enhance national security and service delivery.
