The Diaspora National Identification Number enrollment portal has been successfully upgraded, according to a statement released by the National Identity Management Commission (NIMC).
This was revealed in a statement released by the agency on Monday by its spokesperson, Kayode Adegoke. Nigerians living abroad would benefit from a smooth, reliable, safer, more effective, and efficient NIN service delivery thanks to the upgrade, according to NIMC.
The Statement read, “To ensure effective service delivery and smooth management of the National Identification Number (NIN) enrolment in the Diaspora, the National Identity Management Commission has successfully upgraded its diaspora enrolment platform.
“The upgrade process, which was successfully completed, will, amongst many other benefits, provide a seamless, robust, more secure, efficient, and effective NIN service delivery to Nigerians in the Diaspora.
“Consequently, NIMC Diaspora Front-End Partners (FEPs) have been onboarded on the upgraded system with intensive training to equip the FEPs with the prerequisite knowledge on the application and effective management of the new system.
“While all the Diaspora FEPs are required to obtain and activate their NIN enrolment licences on the upgraded platform within the next forty-eight hours (48 hours), diaspora applicants can access enrolment services from the compliant FEPs.
“The Commission apologises for any inconvenience the platform upgrade process might have caused and has set up a dedicated service team to resolve all issues related to diaspora enrolment. Diaspora applicants experiencing issues with NIN enrolment should please reach the Commission.”
In addition, NIMC reaffirmed that NIN enrollment is still open at all Nigerian centers. Applicants can locate the nearest enrolment centres on the NIMC website; www.nimc.gov.ng, and proceed for enrolment,” it said.
