Nigerians are advised to avoid sharing their National Identification Number (NIN), with unauthorised persons, by the National Identity Management Commission (NIMC), as the NIN when shared wrongly could be used to “perpetrate fraud” against the owner.
NIMC in a statement issued on its official Twitter handle, said, "Your NIN is your digital identity and you will be held liable for offences committed by individuals with sim cards linked to your NIN.” The commission advised that persons engaged in such fraudulent acts should be reported to the National Identity Management Commission.
