Why are people going through all these stress?

I just successfully linked all my active phone numbers this morning though the NIMC app I downloaded from playstore without any stress. I also got a digital National ID card from the app.

I advise you guys to download the NIMC app. it will make your life easier.

If you are waiting for your network operator to link your phone number to your NIN you may wait forever!

what will it cost them to make a directive that if you've an existing recognized ID like international passport, Driver's license or Voter's Card make dem have portal and tell the owner to create an account and upload his or her ID and also do a Selfie to verify is the owner of the ID and you tell him to check back in next 7 working days or so for you to get is Data from the ministry wey dey in charge of the ID he submitted from there you generate him an NiN number...

I said it from day 1, that the systems are not integrated in any way, so there has to be some manual intervention, which will make this a very difficult task to achieve. When we a do the link via the Telcos portal, all that information resides on the Telco's database,. They have to manually send over that NIN information to NIMC for them to verify that it matches. Only then can they send their own confirmation. So the Telco to NIMC linkage and Vice-versa is a totally manual process. I am guessing Telcos send over the info in batches via a spreadsheet or so, and then NIMC responds back, by marking each record in the batch as validated or not. The easiest solution is for NIMC to open up their API, and allow the Telco's to update their on systems so that they can communicate and do the verification directly. This will take some time and thinking, get their IT departments together, and flush out the details. That's how systems are developed.

This is what you get when an idea is conceived out of greed of selfishness. Because of the #EndSARS movement they want to insist on NIN so they can easily track people who disagree with them.
Politicians do not care about development, if the project will not increase their bank accounts or further impoverish the people they are not interested.

If NIN and other government projects are development driven we won't have abandoned white elephant projects costing billions of dollars (awarded yearly) yet with nothing to show for it and no direct benefit to the masses.

The NIMC app does not work for most. When I type in my NIN it shows the number linked to my NIN as Blank, and gives 2 options. Either to select the number is still linked and continue or, to select that the number is no longer linked and continue. Selecting option one displays an error message. Selecting option 2 asks you to visit an NIMC office. What a joke of an app! And that's when I try it after ours. During normal daytime hours, it just displays an error message right away. The app is far from functional!

The digital id is generated automatically once you successfully sign up on the app.

Re: Outdated NIMC Facilities Stalling NIN-SIM Linkage by BlackFlamefromP: 7:33pm On Jan 18, 2021
My own experience with the app was different though.

When I typed in my NIN it displayed some part of my phone number that is linked to the NIN and asked me to confirm if I'm still using the line which I selected yes.

It then sent an OTP and a code to the phone number which I typed in. That was it! The phone number was automatically linked and I then linked my other numbers by myself. I also noticed a digital National ID was automatically generated for me.
