Federal Government Assures Nigerians of Credible Database

The Federal Government has refuted claims that the nation’s National Identity Management Commission, NIMC, server was hacked.

A statement signed by the Director-General of NIMC, Aliyu Aziz, disclosed that the Commission has built a credible system for Nigeria’s identity database.

The statement maintained that NIMC does not store information on any public cloud platform.

It reassured the public that the possession of a NIN slip does not give access to the National Identity Database.
