Rumour has it that it is because NIMC is very busy handing out IF card to Northerners and Hausas from Niger Republic. They then use the national ID card to get voters card which will be vital for elections.

Same thing happens with passport. In the south there is never any paper and people wait for months to get passport. But in Sokoto passport is printed out in 4-5 hours.
Wild claims with no evidence.
Everyone I know that registered for National ID still hasn't gotten theirs.

There is really nothing like plastic I.D card anymore.

Paper I.D is the official I.D.

Misppropriation of funds at all public parastatals. Same with Driver’s license. I only got the plastic DL almost at expiry.

There is hope.

Drivers licence right? And the temporary one was more clearer than the permanent/plastic

That is a lie, majority of people who registered in the north & are northerners still haven't gotten d original card.

I dont want to believe they are short of manpower orcomputers to get the work done,
it is just institutional failure and government have not showed concern about that, they are even trying to make it compulsory for all to have it. when it is not available to those who did it almost half a decade ago.

Incase they need systems, i have powerful core i7 AIO, desktops for bulk sales

It's okay if they allow every Tom, Dick and Harry into the country.

But the north has landmass so they should keep the beggers and herders in the north.

They should not be shipped to the South's hinterlands to alter demographics

What I had from a reliable source is the contractor handling the printing collected money in 2014 but didn't do his job.
Buhari government came, the same contractor was asking for fresh money.
Effc, reminded him of payment was made by Jonathan government. So what money again.
He later claim the money didn't reach him complete as they shared the money.
Buhari ask him to go n do his job and the contract would be reviewed.
Since then nothing happened, the contractor is seriously in debt. Can't meet up with materials for now.

When plastic identity card can be printed in 10mins


Everything about government in Nigeria is slow and backward.

Interestingly, all the people destroying government institutions are using government funds, working hours and experience to build their private businesses.

Reminds me of when I visited Lautech teaching hospital in Oshogbo. Virtually all the senior workers there have their hospital or lab. They know how to stylishly refer you to their facility.

And the ones that don't have hospital are so unprofessional and lackadaisical about their work. It's an eyesore. They have no respect for patients' privacy or confidentiality.

The bolded has to do with volume of traffic. The number of people in the south that are holders of international passport are more in number than those in the north. You should go to the passport offices in the North yourself and see the number of people who come daily for passport. You will rarely see people queueing outside.

Op.

No money has been appropriated in recent years for the print of the cards but honestly i don't even know why you need the card because the ID number is the most important thing.

Also the cards are kind of useless as most places except for the Immigration service don't ha
