RapportNaija,
Please I've lost the temp print out on transit.
What to do?
Although I received a text msg to collect it few years ago, but I couldn't make it to Lag.

I registered at Alausa in 2012 or 2013.

RapportNaija:


Well the only info required in there is name, and "last 6 digits" of ID number... I dont think that will be harmful to anybody.

What is the "touch" doing on that web address?
Answer that first, before you start speculating.

Again, are you saying, if someone collects your full names (Name, Middle name and surname) and also has the last six digits of your national ID, do you realise they can go to the office and collect your Card and then use other details on that card to commit fraud or even use the card to open bogus bank accounts they can use to collect Kidnap ransom?


Look, l am only advising that people err on the side of caution.....l am not forcing anyone not to submit their details.
Wetin concern me sef.

bro this national id card tire me o. Just to get my temporary id slip is a problem. I am sick and tired of it and i have been waiting and they have always been telling me to come back later. It has also been a restriction to me in accessing certain services. The last time i went to check, one of their staffs called me asking me to pay 5k so that they will help me clear it and i will get the temporary slip. My greatest fear is that i don't know if the guy is a scam. Is there any way out of this? Am fed up!

The Nigerian Federal Government agency, National Identity Management Commission (NIMC) has a mandate to ensure all citizens of Nigeria possess a National identity (ID) card. There is an enrollment process in place where citizens of Nigeria can walk into any of NIMC centres to register for their National ID card. This National ID card is meant to identify citizens and to avoid illegal immigrants in the country.

What is a National ID card?

A national identity card is a portable document (which is a typically plasticized card with digital embedded information) that each resident or citizen of a country is issued and required to carry as a means of identification.

The NIMC has created an easy process for everyone who participated in the enrollment to check if their permanent plastic ID card is available. The way created to check for availability of National ID card for collection is a web portal.

Below are the requirements to check your card availability status:

1. Laptop or Smartphone (Android, iOS, Windows, etc.)
2. Internet connection (with enough internet data)
3. Full name (First and Last)
4. Last 6 digits of your ID number (remember, the number consist 11 digits and can be found on your Temporary ID card {paper printout}, 14673******)
5. Knowledge of internet usage

Now that we know the requirements, all we need to look at now is how to check your card availability status online. As soon as you finish this process, you will be notified if your National ID card is ready for collection.

Below are steps to check online:

Step 1: Visit this link --- https://touch.nimc.gov.ng

Step 2: Scroll down and click the button that says "Click to proceed" once.

Once you click that, you would be taken to a page where you will be required to fill your enrollment details into a form.

Step 3: The next thing to do is to fill in your details into the form. Correctly input your ‘First name’, ‘Last name’, and your ‘Last six National ID card number’.

Step 4: When you are done, click on the button at the end of the form, "CHECK NOW”, and your National ID card status will be displayed.

As you can see in the image, this card is not yet ready for collection, so that is how the notification message will be displayed.
