JUST IN: NIMC warns Nigerians against using unauthorised websites for NIN changes

The National Identity Management Commission has warned Nigerians against modifying their National Identification Number data on unauthorised websites.

 

The Head of Corporate Communications, Dr Kayode Adegoke, issued the warning in a statement released on Monday.

 

Adegoke stated that modifications to NIN data could only be carried out on the official NIMC self-service portal.

 

He therefore cautioned that attempting to modify NIN data on unauthorised websites could compromise personal information and expose individuals to identity theft.

 

According to him, using the official NIMC self-service portal ensures that data remains secure and protected.

 

“By using the self-service portal, individuals can also enjoy the convenience of updating their information from anywhere, at any time.

 

“NIMC therefore advises Nigerians to use only the official portal for all NIN modification needs and to avoid unauthorised websites to prevent any potential risks,” he said.
