I was at National Identity Management Commission on last Tuesday to register for my National ID Card. When I got to the Center at Ilorin West in Kwara State, I met with the security guard at the gate who told me that I could not register simply because there was no light. He advised me to join the crowd that were waiting outside the gate. I was disappointed and then asked if Federal Government never made any alternative for the exercise if there is power outage. Then he could not answer my question. He insisted that I should join the crowd and put down my name on a provided list, which of cause I did.

To my surprise, someone among the waiting crowd suggested that we contribute money to buy fuel for the agency so that we could be registered without wasting our precious time. I was disappointed and immediately kicked against that. But alas, more than 80% of the crowd started contributing N50.00 each for the development. By then, we were above 130 people on the list.
As some of us refused to contribute, I then learnt that it had been the usual activity of the Agency to tell people that there’s no light and no fuel to run the generator for the registration exercise. To this, they will expect people to help them with about 20ltrs of fuel or above for them to run the generator.

I think this is very ridiculous and unacceptable way of extorting. I decided to share this on Nairaland because I don’t know how I can report this kind of a thing to the appropriate authority.

It now happens on daily basis at National Identity Management Commission (NIMC), Ilorin, Kwara State.
Please share your experience if you have been a victim too.
Let me also make it clear that I was registered even though I didn’t contribute money. And I told the Agency representative who addressed the crowd that it was an unacceptable way of extorting money from people.

The only thing that is constant in life, I think they say it is CHANGE. Why can't we let the CHANGE begin from you and I?
