With more than 60 enrolment locations, Kano State has the highest number of registration centres for the National Identity card in Nigeria.
Registration for the NIN became imperative lately as the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) announced that mobile line not linked to the National Identity Number (NIN) will be blocked.
LGAs are partners with the National Identity Management Commission (NIMC), an agency managing the identity database of Nigerians at home and in the diaspora.
The centres are spread across the local government councils in the state. Below is the list of locations where you can enrol for the exercise.
