National ID Card Registration To Be Done On Smartphones

Nigerians who may not have done their enrolment for the National ID
card programme will soon be having the opportunity to do so on their
Smartphones.



The National Identity Management Commission (NIMC) announced that it
had concluded plans to provide pre-enrolment services on smartphones.

This is contained in a statement signed by NIMC General Manager on
Corporate Communications Abdulahamid Umar. According to the statement,
the step was taken to ease the sign-up process for Nigerians.

"This development will ensure that citizens can start their enrolment
using their smart phones, a development that would ensure that in the
next couple of months, citizens, of all ages, would have completed
their demographic enrolment before they proceed to NIMC enrolment
centres for their biometric data capture to complete their enrolment,"
the statement said.

It is believed that the initative will help to decongest the enrolment
centres and also ensure that citizens enroll at their convenience
before the deadline.
