Why do you think Yakubu Dogara defected back to the APC? he is a Christian from the North and a likely VP candidate to Asiwaju

FarahAideed:
Tinubu desperate plan to push a Muslim Muslim by all means says alot about how insensitive and intolerant he is ...Once again in 2023 he still want to push that Muslim Muslim ticket because it's the only way he can president in 2023

1) The NIMC Act promulgated in 2007 mandates the Commission to carry out certain functions.
NIMC as an Identity Management Agency that governs the central repository offers verification services as one of such functions.
Now individuals and corporate bodies are required to authenticate or validate the identity of persons seeking to carry out certain transactions.

2) Subscriptions grants a user access to premium services.


3) NIMC charges a premium for verification services that's why credit units are bought as an enabler to carry out such authentications. There are different subscription bundles tailored to serve various needs. There's no sense in subscribing to a bundle with 1 million units as an individual. That bundle is obviously for organisations with huge verification needs like financial institutions, PFAs and Telcos.

4) One common attribute in both the old and new improved slips issued by NIMC is the NATIONAL IDENTIFICATION NUMBER. A NIN slip is valid, regardless of the type or design of paper issued at the point of registration. Premium or non-premium design is irrelevant. Just pick your preferred design simple.

5) NIMC says the first issuance is free so why do you need another copy if you've already been issued?
You are only required to pay if you want another copy.

6) Yes, it is the Commissions duty to provide identification for free and payment is only applicable for re-issuance.

7) If in your thinking the idea is useless then propose a better alternative.

Your dependants are minors that have enrolled and submitted your NIN as a parent or guardian.
You cannot transfer verification units to them.

9) Section 10(c) of the NIMC Act empowers the Commission to set and collect fees for certain services.

10) If developing and operating an identity management system as obtainable in the 21st century is tantamount to an insane anti-people policy then so be it.

I saw this thread (https://www.nairaland.com/6641235/how-print-improved-nin-slip) last night and I wondered why the government can't be consistent for once. It is not just about getting Nigerians to link their NIN to their SIMs now but something else. I logged on to the portal (https://myportal.nimc.gov.ng/) this morning and saw some ridiculous things that only the Nigerian government is capable of attempting.

First, I was greeted with the picture below on the portal and I wondered why a National Commission tasked with regulating identity issues give me CREDITS (I have 30, according to my dashboard). Why would I need to purchase a SUBSCRIPTION from a government's portal; not just anyone but an IDENTITY COMMISSION PORTAL



As if that wasn't enough, I clicked through the subscription link only to find ridiculous tiers of subscriptions; from N100 to N1,000,000, all promising various degrees of credits. Is the government planning on charging Nigerians based on how their NIN QR codes or details are queried during verifications in banks, airports and in other places, particularly government establishments Why am I given 30 CREDITS if it doesn't matter or mean anything?



Not only that, but I also found out that there is a "PREMIUM NIN SLIP" section other than the "IMPROVED NIN SLIP". Although the "PREMIUM NIN SLIP" is currently unavailable, I am wondering why there is a class-play in the NIN slip.



The IMPROVED NIN costs N400 to download. However, I am somewhat convinced of what will likely play out.

1. The NIMC will discard the current slips and will most likely ask banks and other places where the ID is required to only honour the "IMPROVED NIN" or "PREMIUM NIN".
2. This will compel people to download for N400.
3. Say 50 million Nigerians pay N400 each to download the "IMPROVED NIN", this means the NIMC will be making N20 billion Naira from that alone. The number is a worst-case scenario since I anticipate that it will be mandated

MY QUESTIONS

1. Why is an identity commission bent on making money through the provision of NATIONAL IDs?
2. What is the purpose of the subscriptions its portal?
3. Why do Nigerians need NIMC CREDITS and why do we need to buy?
4. Why is there a PREMIUM NIN SLIP
5. Why do I need to pay N400 for a virtual card I will have to print and laminate on my own
6. Isn't it the duty of the Commission to provide Nigerians with FREE National IDs?
7. Who approved of this useless idea
8. Why do I have DEPENDENTS on my portal; implying I could share my subscriptions with them
9. Are the law-making arms of government aware of this daylight Oyenusi stunt? (Not like they are useful anyways but I am not sure there was any discussion on NIMC creating a money-making portal in the legislature.)
10. What is the endgame of government; to sap Nigerians further through insane anti-people policies as always and further create a class divide through the ID cards we carry around?

Ok

terpenoid:
I really need that slip, please how can I go about it?

The APC Candidate benefitted from the division caused by the selection of Ben Murray Bruce's successor in the PDP. Some bigwigs sponsored candidates of other political parties like the ADC.

That aside in the guber polls, Bayelsa is for PDP

SamuelAnyawu:



An opposition party should win a local government election in Nigeria?

How true is it that APC has a Senator representing the good people of Bayelsa?

I am stunned�

HitlerGaddafi:
Later they'll start complaining that their alawee isn't enough. You should have let that old man be. He has just a few years ahead of him before he leaves you alone in this world to continue the suffering. You on the other hand have several years to achieve a lot and you're concerned about an old man.

No abuse.

Np false alarm.

Good morning.

It's election day in Nigeria.

That his children don't have cars bought in their name doesn't mean they don't drive his cars.

Saraki is one of the decision makers and he would like to return as Senate President

mycar:
Then that negates everything, what is worth doing is worth doing fine, no more no less.

Everybody is tired of Buhari, pick your VP from SE and you have 99% SE & SS and 50% SW with you, get 50% North and you are good to go
SW should go for SP, they can push their agenda from there.

Three viable options for VP Nominee.

Some of these information are delibrately circulated by people in government circle using proxies

If it is Rivers, Bayelsa and Delta APC should forget it. The PDP sentiment is strong in those states.

dbynonetwork:
I still don't trust this SARAKI...... APC might be using him as a bait to win RIVERS, BAYELSA and DELTA......

PDP BEWARE...

This people are mad gan.
Too much electricity and i have to run my power generating set till dawn everyday.

I'm ashamed of this administration

WHAT YOU DONT KNOW IS THAT DOGARA IS A CHRISTIAN

khalids:
No,no, no, no. This meeting is not complete, there needs to be a christian and also an Igboman, to ensure all is kanpe....

Really! Please tell us.

flyDixon:




It doesn't have to..... Bayelsa is known for violence.

Most times these male besties don't admit to having a girlfriend thereby giving the girl an option whenever things with you go sour

uzoexcel:



i love quora!!!!!
lemme give my nairaland response...introduce her to a close pretty female colleague of yours and tell ur babe shes your female best friend....infact tell her you are so close that sometimes you crash over @ her place once a while and nothing happens..see how she gonna take it
seriously though try and find out if this fella has a girlfriend?if he doesn't,why? is he secretly hoping for both of u to breakup so he can pick up the pieces? ask him this pointedly in the presence of your babe.if he has ask him to bring her along when next you meetup..maybe for a general hangout or group date?while on this date observe how he acts in front of his own babe...mention stuff of how ur babe was hanging out with him in one joint but u were sorry you couldnt join them as u had much office work but you were sure they had fun..emphasis on FUN...I bet you his girlfrds' eyes will narrow at this...his babe will di the rest for u when they get home ..in the midst of all these,if ur babe gets heated up or asks u to stop bothering the fella, then there's something going on

Bayelsa can dey vote for their own.

Where was David Mark and the Speaker when Sambo was APPOINTED Jonathans vice.

lafflaff123:
Fake News everywhere.

Believe this story at your own peril. How can Abba Kyari become Vice President when we have the Senate President? and the Speaker of the House?Nigeria is still a Democracy in case the people spreading this fake News don't know.

One crucial question to ask is will this stadium be properly maintained for the next 20yrs?. Take a look at the Abuja stadium

HoluwarTohbar:
You are Akwa Ibomites here should give it up already! For the first time in history Akwa Ibom became a beautiful bride most suitors wanted for marriage. Attah and Akpabio did a lot to announce the backward state.

How can anybody expect that stadium to begin to generate so much profit already? That Akwa Ibom is in the conversation in this century deserves commendation.

Yes of course some elements of corruption would have taken place as is cultural with our thieving politicians, to dismiss the honour and pride of place that stadium brings to Akwa Ibom is sheer politicking!

I guess Akpabio needed that project to immortalize his name rather than spend so much expanding the airport and other projects not started by him.

If not for the Calabar stadium, UJ Esuene's achievements in office would have been obliterated by the sands of time. So how much profit does the Calabar stadium rake in yearly?

Nothing wrong with the cash donations, they can afford it comfortably.

The writer is just playing politics as usual...I bet he is not myopic to see the multiplying effect and other positive attractions that stadium will afford the state in 20yrs to come.

Trust naija handlers.

PR disaster.
The national team has a contract with Adidas buh there in the background was a Nike sponsorship label ad

Bayelsa state have been unfortunate with GOVERNORS from 1999. A faulty foundation was laid and the house has now been built on that same foundation.
It's only a matter of time before it collapses.

Bayelsa state ordinarily will have no business with poverty given the allocation that has come in from 1999 but no, the reverse is the case.
What a shame.

PassingShot:
So, what business do some of the rich states have with owing salaries?

Bayelsa, is a typical example of a FAILED STATE if we compare her level of development to her income.

Is this also as a result of FG or failure to restructure?

Just visit an office in your locality to enrol.

I really need this Nimc seriously!

Any updates please

Na today

What stopped Sanusi from approaching GEJ?. He had access to talk to the President privately and he choose to go public. You cannot just ignore the communication channel.

vicadex07:
One of the major reasons i hate gej is how he sacked sanusi for exposing the rot going on in nnpc at the time.

That was when i knew gej was and is unrepentantly and unashamedly corrupt and evil.

Now look at him trying to stay relevant by snapping pics with the same man he unceremoniously outed. This life is truly a mystery...

My God! When the oil dries up the North will ask us to go.

My LyzyLaw is married. Congrats!

Neo-Medrol will work perfectly.
