Gboliwe: Malubi, now I remember you. Did you give the thief Rusau the N4k as you promised or you realised he was a fraud early

Finally I did not.

Gboliwe: is the 'Presidency' a ministry?

Under the office of the president. Let me ask you, Auditor General of the federation works Under which ministry? Better still National planning office is Under which ministry? Is It possible that each office must have a ministry ? Please let me know. Even if possible presidency is a ministry of it own. Thanks

nicago: @ALL, which ministry or department does NIMC report to?

Thanks

presidency

December 2013 is the projected timeline given
by President Goodluck Jonathan for the
delivery of the National Identity Management
Systems (NIMS), which will harmonize all the
data drawn from all ministries, department
and agencies (MDAs) of government and,
above all, manufacture a National
Identification Number (NIN) for every
Nigerian. The Chairman of the National
Identity Management Commission (NIMC),
Barrister Chris Onyemenam, in this interview
with LEADERSHIP’s Joshua Uma, reflects on
the journey so far, the challenges and
achievements.
Tell us about the Commission?
The National Identity Management Commission
(NIMC) Act 2007 provides for the establishment of
the Commission, its functions and powers, the
establishment of the National Identity Database,
assignment and use of general multipurpose cards,
the National Identification Number (NIN) and the
harmonization and integrations of existing identity
databases.
In addition, the Act also provides the Commission
with powers to make regulations connected with its
functions. National Identity Management
Commission Act 2007 includes the repeal of the Law
that created the former Directorate of National Civic
Registration (DNCR) and the transfer of its assets and
liabilities to the NIMC.
NIMC Act number 23 of 2007 also allows the NIMC
to execute the following in line with the Commission’s
objectives: to register persons covered by the Act; to
assign a unique National Identification Number
(NIN) to registered persons; to issue them with
General Multipurpose Card (GMPC); to integrate the
existing Identification Database in Nigeria.
On September 28, 2011, the Federal Government
approved the sum of N30.066bn for the
implementation of the National Identity Management
System (NIMS) and, one year after, the project has
not taken off as many Nigerians have not been
captured in the exercise or issued the National
Identification Number or the General Multi-purpose
Cards; what do you have to say on this?
Indeed, yes. The enrolment exercise has since
commenced with the landmark enrolment of Mr.
Olushola Amurawaiye on February 23, 2012.
Equipment for this purpose have been deployed in the
seven pilot states of the federation, namely, Lagos,
Bayelsa, Rivers, Bauchi, Kaduna, Enugu State and
Federal Capital Territory (FCT) with full enrolment in
the NIMC Corporate Headquarters, Central Bank
premises, Presidential Villa. Our FCT Office located is
on the third floor of the ITF (Industrial Training
Fund) building in Maitama, Abuja. By end of
November, about 10 enrolment materials will be
delivered to each state of the federation.
Given the December 2013 projected timeline
to deliver on NIMS, what has been the
achievement so far by the Commission?
Quite a lot has happened; in fact, the Commission has
recorded amazing progress and is indeed ready. Most
importantly is that the back-end infrastructure, which
is central to the delivery of the NIMS project, has
been fully delivered and it is fully operational.
Meanwhile, the components for the front-end which is
managed under a Public-Private Partnership (PPP)
initiative has reached advanced stages of deployment
in over 20 states nationwide.
How far has the Commission been able to
harmonize and integrate the identity
databases of government agencies?
Well, over 14 MDAs already have their databases
integrated. However, the integration mandate is an
ongoing activity. For example, the Federal Road
Safety Corps (FRSC), which is on the board of
National Identity Management Commission, is
currently capturing and collecting data from
motoring Nigerians and non-Nigerian citizens.
Essentially these data will ultimately be handed over
to NIMC for management.
How will similar data being captured from
other government agencies be integrated into
or with NIMC?
The National Identification Number will connect and
integrate all the various databases of stakeholder
agencies when fully deployed. In most cases, there will
be no need for any further biometric data capture by
the other agencies.
Like in the previous times, do I need a
physical card for identification?
You can assert your identity with or without a
physical card. However, a chip-based national identity
card will be issued to you after the NIN has been
generated. Depending on the level of identity
assurance required for a particular transaction or
instance, an individual’s identity will either be
checked visually by comparing the picture on the
identity card with the facials, or through..

Ok

Jarus: In primary school, my ambition was to become a businessman and philantropist (Abiola model).

In secondary school, it shifted to becoming a banker and ultimately CBN governor. That was why I chose economics in my JAMB form

In year 1 in university, I dropped the 'banker ambition' and wanted to be an oil and gas person. To God be the glory I've had all my career in the O&G sector (save the brief stint in investment banking).

But I never knew I would be an Accountant. I hated accounting.

Jarus, You are my Junior as an accountant; hahaa hm, get me informed of any accounting oppoturnity. Thanks

Wanted to be a Rev. Pastor but ended up been a powerful Accountant. To God be the glory. Even though still applicant, i seriously thank Good.

Zazu04: Wait o! This money u ppl r calling like this, is it d total money d state is giving u to survive wit? Na wah! This country is unbelievable!
So this is d money corpers have been bombed and kidnapped for!!! I weep.

Even though the states pay is too bad, copers ar not going for money but to serve otherwise federal govt suppose to be paying copers minimium of 120k.

slickrick7: Taraba 100k

Y now? Dont Decieve people here, we ar serious.

Amoda84: Taraba state pays 2,400 as at 2010 but don't be dissapointed if they pay you for only 3 or 4 months.Imo pays #0.0 too

My POP in Taraba was in feb. 2012, they are paying 2,000 only but in most places they will seriously assist copers with food stuff. Expect ethnic crises any time, right nown crises is around Takum / Donga local govt but they respect copers very well.
