No fewer than15 million people with Bank Verification Number (BVN) have been linked with the National Identity Number (NIN).
Director General of the National Identity Management Commission (NIMC), Aliyu Aziz, has said.
Besides, he said the ongoing enrollment into the National Identity System has nothing to do with the second wave of COVID-19, as the exercise had been on before the pandemic.
According to The Guardian report Aziz spoke on Friday in Abuja.
He explained that NIMC has adequate equipment and up to this moment, the organisation has not utilised it to full capacity, saying the strategy now has changed completely.
Aziz stated that part of NIMC’s mandate is to harmonise and integrate part of the existing databases and so far, only 15 million BVN that has been harmonized with NIN.
