The Republic of Korea, through its grant aid agency, Korea International Cooperation Agency Office in Nigeria, has signed a new project agreement worth $13 million with the Nigerian Ministry of Communications and Digital Economy.

The agreement, which was signed in Abuja, on Thursday, aimed to further boost the eGovernment expansion, and increase access in the enrolment of the National Identification Number.

The KOICA Office in Nigeria, in a statement titled, ‘FG, Korea boosts e-expansion, signs $13m project agreement,’ said the new agreement was for the implementation of the ‘Project for Building Foundations Towards Digital Governance in Nigeria from 2020 to 2026.’

It said, “The project which is fully funded by the Korean Government through grant aid, is expected to enhance capacity for the further execution of key initiatives of the National eGovernment Master Plan, improve competencies for eGovernment service delivery through capacity building programmes, expand the delivery of government digital services through the activation of the Government Service Portal, www.services.gov.ng, and create increased access for NIN enrolment through the establishment of additional NIN enrolment centres.”

Speaking during the signing ceremony, the Minister of Communications and Digital Economy, Isa Pantami, said KOICA’s aid disbursement for eGovernment remained the highest in Nigeria.


He recalled the remarkable experience he had during his visit to Korea for the International Telecommunication Union conference, saying that the experience presented him with the opportunity to appreciate the robust development of Korea’s eGovernment structures and implementation.

The minister acknowledged the willingness of the Federal Government to expand eGovernment in Nigeria, while also saying that the Ministry of Communications and Digital Economy was fully prepared to actualize the objectives of the new project to further boost the expansion of eGovernment initiatives across the country.

Country Director, KOICA Nigeria Office, Mr Woochan Chang, said the agreement serves as a second phase for the eGovernment Capacity Building project in Nigeria, earlier implemented during 2013-2019, which was also fully funded by KOICA.

He called for full activation of the Presidential Council on eGovernment which he regarded as a significant engine room for the operationalization of activities as designed in the new project, noting that the new project activities are closely aligned with the policy focus of the National Digital Economy Policy and Strategy, 2020 -2030.

“It is criminal and fraudulent to pre-register a SIM card in Nigeria and it is an offence punishable under the law.

“Though the Federal Government recently lifted the ban on sale of new SIM cards, it should be noted that proper registration of SIM cards and linking them to National Identity Number (NIN) before activation has now become a prerequisite

In the sane countries we want our country to be like, this is one of the ways they got to that great height.
USA couldn't have been a great country today without what they call their social security number, which each and every citizen must have.
If you commit any fraud or crime, or scam anyone, all your life is connected in one place.
Only in Nigeria that a man will commit a crime in Ibadan and run to Sokoto, and that will be the end of the case for years.....prolly forever!

Your National Identification Number (NIN) is used to tie together all records about you – demographic data, fingerprints, head-to-shoulder facial picture, other biometric data and digital signature – in the National Identity Database making it relatively easy to confirm and verify your identity when you engage in travels and transactions.

This vital feature of the NIN makes it pivotal for all citizens (home and abroad) as well as legal residents of Nigeria to endeavour to obtain their unique NINs as soon as they can.

Be sure you provide the right information about yourself while your data is captured during enrolment for your NIN, that will be the information legally identifying you for life whenever your NIN is used.

One can see how important the NIN is to an individual:

it is used for retrieving your captured information from the National Identity Databaseyour matching information associated with your NIN can be then used to verify that you are really who you say you are.

To the society as a whole, the NINs issued,
help provide accurate records about actual living/dead persons in every region of the countryhelp keep track of actual transactions as well as movement of people within and out of the countryhelp confirm which individuals are in actual need of particular Government services, e.g. age and retirement confirmation for pensioners.

When it comes to access to vital services (like passport issuance, banking services, land transactions, insurance services, pension, health insurance, payment of taxes, voter’s registration, consumer credits, and all Government services), your NIN becomes necessary for:
cutting down the time needed for verifying documents to properly identify you in order to access the services you requirereducing errors in allocation of services to the right peopleprevention of fraud (419) where someone else impersonates youverification of the real identity of other people you go into financial or business transactions with or even people you wish to employ such as house helpensuring you are properly identified when receiving health services, e.g. verifying the actual blood types of blood donors at hospitalsverification of voter eligibility during elections.

Slow and Steady, Nigeria will be great again in our lifetime.
God bless Nigeria.

If not an intelligent Minister like Pantami, who can source this initiative and even bring it to fruition.
The man is so resourceful and intelligent, he’s epitome of humbleness and humility. May Allah continue to guide and protect him against bigots, agents of satan, daughters of Jezebel, nieces of Delilah. All these nincompoops I mentioned above will start quoting me, wait and see

lol…you’re wrong if you think the solution of Nigeria’s problem can come from this set of persons controlling strategic positions.

So bold and daft. Imagine them comparing NIN to Social Security Number, do they know the benefits that come with having a SSN?

More on NIN that Sane, good, honest and hardworking Nigerians should know.....

Nigerians home and abroad , kindly take note!

Imagine you walk into an Immigration office to apply for an international passport.
You are asked for information verifying your identity and you just give them a number and instantly the Immigration officials connect to the National Identity Database – all your required information appears on their computer screen.
They can only see information they are authorised to see.
Done, your identity is verified – no need to go get extra documents, spend more money, just to prove who you are.
That is the convenience provided by your NIN.
This is synonymous with Social Security Number (SSN), if you don't have that in some countries abroad, you will just be living like a corpse, without being able to do anything in life, a corpse will even be better than your as$! 
It’s the same thing when you go to process a driver’s licence, you would only need to present your NIN and your identity would be verified.

This is how it is done in saner climes we all want to emulate.
We will surely get there someday soon.

God bless Nigeria.

You folk just mouth off as if you are in a village square

But we have said it over and over again on this forum, that our posts here is only for sane minds.
We know you wailers and kids can never assimilate our posts due to the constant hatred you have for your country (the country you call a zoo).
An advice to you, next time, scroll over our post to the next post cos it is too deep for your brain.
That will be better for you rather than to develop migraine for nothing.
Please kindly take to this advice from the elders for your own good.

Peace out!

What's the catch? I feel there's something we're not being told. What's in it for South Korea? Access to our data?

Hmm
