The Federal Government on Thursday, said the National Identity Number (NIN) is mandatory for transactions such as the opening of bank accounts, payment of taxes, and voter registration.
Minister of Communications and Digital Economy, Isa Pantami, said this in Abuja while hosting the newly elected National Executive Council of the Association Telecommunications Companies of Nigeria. Pantami said the Government was determined to ensure that all citizens in Nigeria had their various NINs as it's the country's primary means of identification. “This is most importantly in the area of NIN, which is a mandatory number, based on the NIMC order of 2007 that has actively been neglected for years," he said.
