Did you register your national ID/voter's card with that MTN sim? If yes then it is yours. You may also want to view this thread

Who even authorized the Harmonisation of NIN and Voters-Card data??
Was it NIMC? or INEC?? or Which Government Body Exactly??

CuteMike01:

Sorry o. I'm the mumu that is wasting my time helping you. Make I go do something else. Yeye man

If you want to help me,, then read the original post well and help me properly..
Stop exposing your mumuism here..

BluntNigerian:
I have never in my life registered for this NIN stuff.
I mean, I haven't done the NIN registration at any point in time before.
But I was surprised to get a NIN number when I dailed *346#.
..
How do I verify directly from the NIMC, that the NIN number I got is mine?
..
Note:
I wouldn't want to verify the NIN number from any third-party website.... I would like to verify it directly from the NIMC, or directly from the NIMC Official Website.

One good Samaritan from this forum helped me to confirm my own NIN without collecting any money. He only asked for my mtn number and my name. He sent the paper that contained my details to my mail. His name is Hassan

as arrogant as some comments where here, I enjoyed reading everything from A to Z. BluntNigerian but that feminist something is quick to throw insult without even trying to grasp what BluntNigerian is talking about.

English language comprehension is very hard for some people . What BluntNigerian is trying to say is that he has NIN attached to his number, but he wants to confirm through the NIMC website or an official website if it really belongs to him.

Something like an official website to type in that NIN to see the details attached to it just to be sure

But all of you are just saying use it like that its yours since you do blabla in 2014, harmonisation shit.

I have the same issue with my MTN i have two NIN for different numbers

y'all should stop wasting your time on this guy ... Mr goan register ... nobody hold you..

BluntNigerian:
I registered for my BVN after that time they started sending numerous texts and emails to me, threatening to freeze my account if it doesn't have a BVN.
I can't really remember the exact year again..

i did mine in 2014,if you registered that year then u automatically have the NIN.So no cause for alarm.

Ok..
As for me,, I am definitely among the last set of people that did the BVN stuff..
That means, I am not supposed to have a BVN-Generated NIN.

Mr Time-waster..
I am not going to register..
I already have a NIN,, so Sharrrapp.!!
Let those people that do not have a NIN go and register first..
..
Meanwhile, stop showcasing lame wokeness here..
You're not the only person that saw this thread.
So, why are you registering your frustrated attention here?

My Brother,, thank you so much for understanding what I was trying to say..
..
I really didn't understand the exact reason why Femi4 insulted me shaa ooo..
..
I just took it that he is one of those paid trumpeters..
If not, then a high-level zone-bee.
Or something of that sort..
All those people who have lost their proper sense of reasoning, and whenever serious technical questions are being asked, they would rush to senselessly defend some crazy political errors, thinking that the technical questions on ground had some political undertone, not knowing that such questions transcended political gimmicks, and when correctly answered without bias to a good logical conclusion, would help the larger Nigerian Population.

I insulted cos you said I m spreading fake news even after showing you the link where it was stated emphatically that some BVN and NIN data were harmonized. Instead, you chose to be impossible.

Kindly get off my mentions

*GOOD NEWS FROM NIMC, NO MORE STRESS / EXPLOITATION TO GENERATE National Identification Number*

*Get your National Identification Number for Naija to avoid your Sim Card being shutdown*

NIMC has setup a ussd server to dispense NIN number to Nigerians from the comfort of our homes.

Dial * 346# and follow the screen prompts.

Your NIN will be displayed.

*Caution:* Before dialing this code, ensure you do the following:

You must dial from a sim that is associated with a previous registration of either voters card, drivers licence, bvn or any other registration that captured your thumbprint and passport.

No credit charges would you be on your line

Prepare a sheet of paper and pen or get ready to screenshot the NIN when displayed, as it will not be displayed more than once and can't be saved once displayed.

Do not try the code if your battery is low

We were surprised that no such information was given to people at the NIMC's offices because of the money they make therefrom.

NIN agents and workers were exploiting Nigerians to the tune of N3000 - N5000 to get what is meant to be free.

The dial code works. I just got my NIN without charges.

Spread this info on all social media and inform everyone.

The problem with Nigeria is not only leadership but sabotage and corruption perpetrated by the led.

I think we are gradually getting it right. Corruption will die one day in Nigeria.

Just spread this news. Thank you.

NIMC said that there was no breach in their Database..
And they made it clear that no other agency or private body had anything to do with their database..
See the News Links Below..

So Mista-man, answer me.
Where exactly did you get the “Harmonisation” News from??

Oga Sir,, you better start the Insults on me all-over afresh ooo...
But I must school you properly on this one.
Stop believing every rubbish you see online.

Na Waa Ooo..
From this Nonsense Picture you shared here, probably from another useless blog (if not, you drop the link let us read the full contents),, it is clear that you also believed that it wasn't only BVN that NIN harmonised their database with,, but that they also harmonised their database with lots of other agencies...
That means, agencies like INEC too, NPC, FRSC, Immigration, and so on??
..
That means, If I happened to register for my Voter's Card in 2014, or that I renewed my Driving License or my International Passport in 2014, then I automatically have a NIN that was generated and assigned to me, even if I didn't go to any of the designated NIMC Registration Centres as of then??
...
Hahahahahahahahahahahaaahahaaha..
Very Pitiable You Are, Okay??

My Brother, no just mind all of them..
They are rushing to answer good citizens online, not knowing that they are showcasing something else that is far worse than mediocrity and stupidity.

Meanwhile,, tell me more about the Bolded Statement above.
How did it happen exactly? (so that we can take the complainants up from this end)

I have exactly the same issue as OP. I have
NIN when I dial *346# but I have never been to NIMC office before.

How do I confirm that this number is mine?

I can't link this number yet until I confirm it's truly mine. NIMC should have a portal where one can input a NIN and see detail (or basic details) of that number.

And why should I go and register in their office again if they generated this NIN from BVN database? Doesn't BVN have our biometrics?

Olarsview:
....

“......You must dial from a sim that is associated with a previous registration of either voters card, drivers licence, bvn or any other registration that captured your thumbprint and passport.....”

......

Only this part got my attention..
Please, is there an official statement released to this effect.?
Is it officially confirmed that all these agencies actually registered people for NIN number at some point in time??
(The reason I am asking is because NIMC actually denied such possibilities)

Thank You So Much.

BluntNigerian:
In the link you supplied,, this was what I saw....
..
“...Amidst the rush to get registered, a viral message circulating on social media claims that those who had registered for Bank Verification Number already have NIN. Thus, they do not need to register for NIN......”
..
I don't need to trust viral messages circulating on social media..
..
I need authoritative statements released by the relevant authorities.
..
Lots Of Fake News Are Flying Around Now.
Stop Believing Them...
Stop Spreading Them Either...

Visit any bank branch to validate your NIN. It can be printed for you.

You're not serious yet. Use a 3rd party website that connects to the NIMC api
and you'll see the picture of whomsoever owns the NIN glaring back at you.

I verified mine and the picture is correct with the exact clothe i was putting on the same day i registered
