NIMC Unveils New NIN Verification Service by AmazingGenius(op): 4:40pm On May 06, 2025
The Federal Government has approved a new service by the National Identity Management Commission to make it easier and safer to verify people’s identities using their National Identification Number.

This was disclosed in a statement by NIMC’s Head of Corporate Communications, Kayode Adegoke, on Tuesday in Lagos.

Adegoke said the Presidency has also instructed all Ministries, Departments, and Agencies to use this new NIN Authentication service for identity checks.

He explained that this move supports NIMC’s duty to provide a reliable digital ID system for Nigerians and legal residents.

The new service, called NIN Authentication, can be used through the web, mobile apps, or API. It helps protect people’s data, ensures privacy, and makes it easier to use government services.

“This supports President Bola Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda, which aims to improve how identities are managed in the country,” he said.

The NINAuth application is the official tool for connecting with NIMC’s database.

It adds a strong layer of protection and gives people more control over their personal information.


It also requires users to give permission before their data is used for services like Know Your Customer or other checks.

Adegoke said the platform encourages trust and allows people to manage how their information is shared.

With NINAuth, people can safely verify their identity and access services like SIM registration, SIM replacement, passport applications, tax filings, and financial transactions.

It will also be used for government support programmes, driver’s licence renewals, and other official processes.

He added that the service comes with several benefits: better security, protection against unauthorised access to personal data, and giving people the power to control their data-sharing settings.

The NINAuth also offers easy and secure access to many services through a single sign-on feature.

Adegoke said the launch of NINAuth shows NIMC’s continued effort to improve identity verification in Nigeria.

The platform is built to be secure, flexible, and compatible with other systems through API integration.

It allows real-time verification of NIN records, helping improve service delivery and compliance with national identity rules.

He said NINAuth is now the official platform for all identity checks that use the NIN.

More information, including how to use “the new service, can be found at: https://ninauth.nimc.gov.ng”.

"This supports Tinubu's Renewed Agenda"?

Whether Tinubu or whoever, NIN is a National Commission that has nothing to do whomever presides over the Country.
