“Y’ello, Please Note . This is solely for the purpose of collating NIN pending when verification of the submitted NIN is completed through NCC/NIMC, the status of the NIN submitted is unverified; this means you might be required to visit again for verification/validation based on outcome of the verification exercise. Thank you!” the statement added.
Y’ello Salisu, yes it is from us. The Federal Government has directed all mobile network operators to disconnect every SIM Card not synchronized with a valid National Identity Number (NIN) by the 30th of December 2020. As result, we are to commence capturing of MyCustomers’ NIN.

Meanwhile, NewsOne Nigeria understands that one thing that would make it tedious for subscribers is if the process of linking it is long and stressful.
Well, to link up your NIN, two things are involved;
✓ You must have gotten your NIN beforehand
✓ If you have not gotten yours before, you have to enrol and get one as soon as possible.
Y’ello, Kindly visit https://t.co/zsjASgiKvQ to link your line to your National Identity Number. Pending when verification of the submitted NIN is completed through NCC/NIMC, the status of the NIN submitted is unverified; this means that you might be required to visit again 1/2
