I initially registered for the NIN around late 2019,but due to the toggling back and forth by the officials at Kosofe LGA; I had to abandon the entire process and never went back again. But three weeks ago; I wanted to retrieve the NIN but someone close to me told me to try registering for it again which I did.
When I was registering for it again, some people were called out who have done it before but I was not called out. So that gave me a reason to proceed with the registration. Everything was done again and yet my previous data was not detected. But when it was time to collect the nin number; I was told that I've registered before and directed to Alausa.

I'll be going to Alausa tomorrow to retrieve my nin for the first one I did. But I just heard from someone and online that registering twice is punishable. I want to know if anyone here has tried registering for it twice and what the punishment was. If it's money; like how much? Or anything to look towards tomorrow.
NB: I misplaced the sim I used in registering the first one so I can't recover it using the ussd code.

Edit: I've finally gotten my NIN. I was never even asked whether I've registered before. I'm so happy right now. Thank you to all the people who commented on this thread.

Please, don't ignore. I need help. I beg of you

you can't register twice,not possible. You may fill the form,but you won't get another NIN .Except you use a different details,and that will complicate the whole matter because your finger print will expose that you have registered before,and no NIN will be allocated,except someone goes to Nimc headquarters in Abuja to correct the error,and you know how naija is,your case may never be resolved and you may never get a NIN.

As for punishment,nothing of such. Take your slip to where you first registered and retrieve your Nin

thank you boss. I actually used the same exact details as the first one. So there's no problem. The other one I did, did not bring out any nin because I've done it before. Thank you.

You can't register twice with one number, and even if u can... there will be no punishment.

I've registered since 2016 and till date, my NIN is yet to be released. So I think the government need to get some things done right before imposing it blindly.
It's usually annoying.

I hope so… because I've already lost two of my SIMs to deactivation for the sake of the NIN the same government who imposed it refused to release.

the second one was cancelled. The first one was the one I retrieved because I lost the sim I used for registering it.
