Seizure of equipment and crackdown on unauthorised NIN operators in Abuja

Individuals engaged in unlawful NIN enrolment have been apprehended in Gwagwalada, FCT, and other parts of the nation by the National Identity Management Commission (NIMC).

The operation was carried out by the commission’s Inspectorate Compliance and Enforcement Unit, which also seized equipment used for the illicit activities, according to the commission.

In the statement, NIMC’s Director-General, Abisoye Coker-Odusote, underlined the organization’s stance against extortion and unethical behaviour.

The public was also encouraged to call the commission’s toll-free number, 0800 0616 462, with any questions or concerns.
