…… Directs SIM issues to service providers
The National Identity Management Commission (NIMC) has announced the migration of Telecommunications firms to new National Identification Number (NIN) verification platform, NINAuth successfully.
In a statement released by the Commission stated that this development marks a significant step forward in enhancing the security, efficiency, and user experience of NIN verification services.
By migrating to this new platform, Telecommunications firms can now provide uninterrupted verification services to their subscribers.
The NINAuth platform enhances data protection, gives control of personal data to the owners, offers seamless verification, and provides convenient sign-on access to services.
The Director, IT/IDD, NIMC, Engr Lanre Yusuf, confirmed that all Telecoms firms have been successfully migrated and uninterrupted verification services are being offered by the NIMC.
The Commission assured general public that the Verification and Authentication Service platforms are functional and accessible to all.
However, any issue being experienced by NIN Holders on New SIM registration, SIM swap, SIM migration, Welcome back SIM, and others should be directed to the Telcos for immediate resolution.
By achieving this milestone, NIMC vowed to continue to demonstrate commitment to providing secure, efficient, and user- friendly digital identity services to Nigerians.
