Nigeria and Replication.Where is Bvn.now Nin.

Ferma and mininstry of works
Frsc and civil defence
Military and boko haram
Cows and killer herdmen.

Every where is replication.

All these are being harmonized. NIMC is the sole manager of Nigerian Identity database by law

The ID card only serve as a means of Identification. The NIN serves as a means of Identification, authentication and verification. You see, Nigerians are so smart that before you know it, they will start duplicating the card. But the NIN is unintelligent, you can guess the number. Each individual NIN is tied to his/her biometrics. So when you change the port on the slip or card, you can't change your biometrics

Rubbish. I did mine 5 years ago since then no card just mumu unacceptable paper.

At the moment, the paper is even more acceptable than the card, because it has your NIN or it. I'm sure the bank has never asked you to present your BVN card. Many persons are not even aware there's a BVN card

When u said more, I was expecting more. Not just one point. What exactly are u authenticating & ing that haven't been authenticated&verified b4? How's this special? Isn't it d same security features PVC, drivers license&international port have?

Let all Politicians have theirs first. Plus I hope it ready for collection too. I've applied for mine since 2014, I stopped going there to check since 2016.

Nigeria needs to be organized.

These are clearly not benefits cos d question is benefits 4 who? Going by what u have written, d NIN serves no purpose

I see where you're coming from, as the benefits enumerated are mostly to Nigeria as an entity. But I'm sure you wouldn't want to deal with or make transactions with a ghost. Those are the cases that cause 419. The NIN will let you know the person is who he/she claim to be

So u saying b4 u transact business with someone, u will ask 4 NIN? So were will u his NIN to confirm if he is a 419 or not? If d benefits are to Nigeria as an entity, that means u can't really say how Nigerians, d people, are going 2b beneficiaries of d "benefits".

We both know that you can have as many PVCs and drivers Licence that you want. Besides that every country has it's identity system. The PVC is for voting, the Drivers licence for drivers, the international port for travels. The only source of identification by law is NIMC
amalab30(m): 8:09am On Jan 06, 2019
Yeah absolutely. I have the temporary ones.. I'm interested in the original. Thanks.

ola2006:


If you have applied since 2014, then you have NIN already what you don't have is card. NIN is different from card. NIN slip does not take time to be generated. Check the slip that was given to you. Your NIN number is on it.

Oga how can u have as many PVCs& drivers licenses as possible when they take ur biometrics b4 issuance? PVC is 4 voting. Drivers license is 4 driving&international port 4 travelling. What do they all have in common? They are all means of identification. When u go 2 ur polling booth, ur PVC identifies u as a ed&eligible voter. Ur drivers license just like ur port has all ur biodata. Ur drivers license even goes further by adding ur blood group. ports aren't just 4 travelling but are a means of identifying u if&when u leave d country. 4d fact that they were issued 4 specific purposes, doesn't exempt them from being means of identification. They are referred to as "government issued means of identification". They are very reliable, hence banks still and would always rely on them. So d NIMC isn't d "only source of identification by law"

It is exactly what you are thinking!

That's the direction the world is going.

There's nothing you and I can do about it.

It's an IRREVERSIBLE GLOBAL PROGRAMME that will lead to Antichrist's Mark of the Beast.

Going by what d dude wrote and called "benefits" in which u can't do anything without NIN, then u might b right.

What that means is that I can be John with Immigration, David with INEC, Paul with FRSC, Aminu with the NCC etc. NIMC is bringing all these together. That is why henceforth, you will have to present your NIN to any of these agencies to enjoy their services. The information collected will be used by government for planning purpose and these will benefit the citizens right? I'm not saying when you want to buy something worth #50, you will ask for NIN. There are transactions that you would have to know the person you are dealing with. And you don't have to ask anyone for his/her NIN. You don't expose your NIN to just anyone for security reasons. You can't even bring another person's NIN to be checked. Both parties must have to visit the office for that to be done

Earlier, u said people can have multiple PVCs and drivers licences. How's that possible? How does it mean "that I can be John with Immigration, David with INEC, Paul with FRSC, Aminu with the NCC etc"?


GeebeeM:

What are those bebefits if u may? Are u telling me that Nigeria hasn't had plans all these years? Is Nigeria bereft of plans or implementation of those plans? Even when there are no plans, is it lack of data that makes our leaders bereft of people-oriented ideas? D information at government's disposal what has it done with it so far? Is it d lack of information from NIN that is d bane of Nigeria's development? Is it lack of data that makes govts unable to pay salaries or fix roads, improve healthcare & education? Is it lack of data from NIN that makes us have an inefficient police force?


There are transactions that you would have to know the person you are dealing with. And you don't have to ask anyone for his/her NIN. You don't expose your NIN to just anyone for security reasons.

What transactions exactly are u talking about? So how will u no d person? So both of u will now go 2 NIMC office to go& check ur NIN 2 confirm if both of u aren't 419?

.just go to any FIRS office,with your phone because you need to your BVN,tell them you want to get your TIN number.they will generate your TIN together with your NIN.it is easier if you are a civil servant,in less than 10 mins.
