After several years of many Nigerians waiting to get their plastic national ID Card after enrolling for NIN, a new method of getting the original NIN was announced recently by the National Identity Management Commission (NIMC).
The NIMC has assured Nigerians that the new slip can be used anywhere in the world for identity verification.
The old big-sized slip is still useful and should be kept very well. The new improved slip is produced to relieve people going through various difficulties in accessing some online features.
Many Nigerians have been complaining that the old slip is only recognized in Nigeria, there have been setbacks in implementing international verification with the old slip but NIMC has come with the improved slip to address the situations.
In this article, we will take you through a step-by-step guide on how to access your NIMC account, download and print your improved NIN slip easily.
