briarhubble: Nigeria's president has formally launched a national electronic identity card, which all Nigerians will have to have by 2019 if they want to vote.

Jonathan had earlier directed NIMC to conclude registration by December this year.

NIMC also has the mandate to issue a unique National Identification Number (NIN) to all eligible citizens, provide a secure means to access the national identity database in order to authenticate and verify identities, and to issue the e-ID Card to every eligible citizen.
The National e-ID Card which will be officially unveiled at the State House Banquet hall, Abuja today, is a multi-purpose card for identification, electronic signatures, biometric on-card verification, and other applications.
The Card which would subsequently be issued to all Nigerians who have successfully enrolled for the National Identification Number (NIN), has five applications already activated at issuance, with a built in capacity to host more applications on request.

Director, Corporate Communications of NIMC, Anthony Okwudiafor who gave the information, said the process of activating applications on the card would be done in phases.

The first phase according to him, would include International Civil Aviation Organisation, which has to do with compliant travel application to be used as a Machine Readable Travel Document (MRTD), for local/regional travel;
Nigerian Electronic Identity (‘eID’) application to be used to authenticate an individual’s identity; Electronic Public Key Infrastructure (‘ePKI’), as application to be used for identification, authentication and digital signatures; Fingerprint Match-on-Card (‘MoC’) functionality to be used for biometric verification; Banking application (‘EMV’) to be used for deposit, withdrawal, payment, transfer, inquiry; while phase two would be Drivers’ License (IDL) - to be used as international driver’s license;


Transport application to be used for loading credits/units on local bus terminals; Tax application to be used to make tax payments, verify payments; Voter ID application to be used to cast a vote; Pension application, to be used to manage retirement savings account; NHIS application for e-health, to be used to upgrade, renew, health insurance; Insurance application to be used to subscribe to insurance policy, renew insurance policy; SIM application to be used as repository for saving a cardholders personal numbers previously registered with the telecoms regulator; and Custom tool used to save space for more applets in the future.

Off topic :But I strongly question basis of this topic. Posted 4:19am to hit front page when someone else has posted the same topic with more pictures and details earlier and there has been a lot of discussion there as well.
I created a thread ( www.nairaland.com/1875091/mr-seun-fellow-nairalanders-explain )to know Mr Seun and fellow nairalanders view on this but unfortunately got relatively no response.
I hope someone will do me the favor here!

Secondly, I don't understand why I'm banned from posting topic and/or post comment on certain topic atimes.
