How to get your National Identity number without stress
National Identity Card has become an important asset that every Nigerian should have.
As a valid means of identifying Nigerian citizen, its needed to participate or do many things in the country today. Alternatively, you must possess either the National Identity Card, Driver License, International Passport, or Voter’s Card.
Out of the above mentioned valid means of identification in Nigeria, only two are affordable and easy for the masses to obtain, these are National Identity card and the Voters Card. While voters cards can only be enrolled periodically, which is every 4 years, the National identity card can be enrolled at any time.
However, despite the fact that the National Identity Card can be enrolled at any time, it is very disappointing that the process of enrollment for the Identity card has been frustrating. To get enrolled, one needs to know someone working at the registration center or bribe your way through.
More so, after enrollment for the National Identity card, the collection becomes a tug of war, as one can wait for as long as 5 years without any success. This has been the trend as you see many students who need the Identity card for admission to higher class, as it one of the criteria to register for external examinations like JAMB, to tertiary institutions. Students are lined up at the NIMC office from morning till evening on a daily basis.
How to get your National Identity card without stress
Meanwhile, after registering for the Identity card, you have already been allocated your National Identity Number which is known as NIN. To access your NIN for future use, you only need to dial the following numbers on your phone via a USSD *364# on the phone number you used for registration, if you truly registered, your NIN would be revealed to you, a service charge of #20 would be charged by the operator.
This is useful for some online registrations where your NIN will be required before you can be qualified for such a particular application.
