It is recycled and I think this number recycling issue will put people in problems. NCC doesn't even care if numbers are recycled or not which makes me wonder who suffers in case of eventualities.

In my case I never registered for NIN before, I only did BVN but recently I found out they automatically generated NIN for me when I did BVN registration and without my knowledge they linked it to a number i stopped using 7 years ago which MTN has sold to another person...... Now what happens if the person commits a crime with it?

I know in the real sense and with a good lawyer I can pull through with evidences showing MTN resold it however, this is Nigeria and one can go in for it.

I urge NCC and NIMC to make provision for people to easily unlink strange numbers from their NIN through their website as I don't have a way to do that. Again if you head to their office, they will request payment to take off such info.


Soo boss.... Any idea on how I can get my NIN
Since I have a bvn number already

If that is the case, it means somebody has used the sim in the past or the OP is just joking

I am having the same problem. the number i used for my BVN is no longer mine, since i discontinued its usage since 6 years now. Now, if i had a NIN , the person using that line now will now use my NIN for his own registration. Honestly, what is the point of NIN? we all have unique numbers (BVN) already.

I think you automatically have one since you did BVN about 6 years ago.... If whoever is using your previous number dials the code to check the NIN they will be able to see it.

Qrash:
surprising to me because I don't even have national identification number, but today I inserted my Etisalat inside my phone few minutes later I received a confirmation message that my national identification number has been linked successfully.
mind you I didn't dial any code whatsoever, and I don't even have national identification number. I only know that I registered the simcard with my correct details.


what could possibly happen ?

is the linked NIN number valid ?

do I have anything to worry about ?
my question is nah u dey ur profile wink
