Nigeria's National Identity Management Commission has been frequently criticised for its slow performance (especially with so many people complaining about the rate of issuance of their National ID cards).

Despite this though, NIMC's website does have interesting content littered across it pages.

For instance take a look at this page:

NIN in Simple Images

Here are ten handy images offering quick information on the National Identification Number (NIN).

The images can also be downloaded (right-click on each image and select “Save image as…” from the menu which appears) and shared with family and friends.

Hmm, a couple more pages...

NIMC Enrolment Centres: https://www.nimc.gov.ng/nimc-enrolment-centres/


NIMC Fees: https://www.nimc.gov.ng/fees/

tell it to the Fulani herdsmen.

If the NIMC and other Nigerian agencies can get their acts together, this would make life a little easier - picture walking into an immigration office to get a passport, then producing your NIN and, snap!, your photo and bio-metric details appear their computer screens from NIMC's database.
No more waiting to get your bio-metrics and other data captured, you just go on straight to processing your passport.
Now that would be nice.
If only...
