Hello Nairalander, I would like to know the circumstances that could make it possible for a person who is yet to visit any of the NIMC offices or outlets either online or offline for the purpose of registering for the NIN get the NIN?

I have never made any prior efforts to register for the NIN stuff, however out of curiosity I tried entering the NIMC's NIN registration verification code *346# via my Etisalat phone number and to my surprise the system returned a positive answer with an eleven digit NIN.

So what are the possible technical reasons for this?

Thanks for your suggested answers.

Update##
I tried to see if I could verify the number on the NIMC website and di scovered that the site is down with message reading indicating "FORBIDDEN "black black bla

Estrella366:
I have done that already but I still have to wait for the NIMC website site to be up and running again for me to verify to be cocksure

tknyskny:

If you have done BVN, go to the bank you registered and ask for the printout of your BVN details. U will see your NIN there

Camelot65:
Your BVN has been used to generate a NIN for you..

Now go to NIMC office with the NIN to update your information and a slip will be given to you

I just checked mine too now out of curiosity on my MTN and was surprised I saw the eleven digits number. I have never done this NIN before cos I have all been making use of my old National identity card issued years back.

AerialMapper:
The reason is simple

The number you used is the same you used for your BVN.

NIMC has somehow used BVN to assign NIN to people ( digital NIN) so if you have a BVN then you automatically get assigned an NIN which you can retrieve using the code *346#

So do not panic and no cause for alarm...

obiekunie2:
is it the samenumber you used for your bvn?

if yes, then they just updated your details thru your bvn.

but if no . . . you are on ur own be that.

MrColdsweat:
You idiots should be resisting the government and it's directive.

The government wants to easily track you in case of any further protests.

This is the first step to social media regulation.

Fools!

michaelpop50:


How are you going to do it?

Ustec:

What is the maximum number of lines that one can link with the NIN?

Grandmeister:
Just entered 346 on my mtn line and saw my NIN, I never actively did any documentation for it prior. But I use GTBANK so I guess it explains it?

Ifewunmi03:
I guess this is one of the reasons why our Network line should be linked with our various NIN.

Our Network providers keep recycling lines whichh is not advisabl. For instance, who remember the case of Delta State businesman arrested by DSS for using sim that once belong president's daughter.

My challenge with our Nigerian system of government is that, both network providers and government won't make us of it.
