National Identity Management Commission says it has achieved 120,000,040 million National Identity Number (NIN) enrolments for citizens and legal residents.
NIMC also gave reasons for its recent review of its service price framework.
NIMC Director General, Abisoye Coker-Odusote, disclosed these at a press conference on Wednesday.
She said NIMC had continued to expand its infrastructure capacity to serve Nigerians better in the last 24 months.
Abisoye-Coker noted that the commission has reduced corruption in the agency by 40 percent.
On its recent price review, the NIMC boss noted that charges for modifications of data were increased while verifications were decreased.
She said, “There were some prices that were too much, so what we did was to remove them.
“There were all sorts of prices over there. People were extorting citizens with outrageous prices.
“NIN enrolment is free. But if you want to modify your data for any reason, you have to pay more.
“Some prices were reviewed downwards and others upwards.
“In terms of verification, the prices were reviewed downwards but upwards in terms of modifications.”
Recall that on 1st May, 2025, NIMC announced a review of its service prices.
The commission then hiked date of birthday corrections fee to N28,574 from N16,340.
Similarly, the commission increased its NIN retrieval service on Unstructured Supplementary Service Data to N50 from N20.
