How Nigerians can perform NIN modification, others – NIMC
The National Identity Management Commission has issued guidelines to Nigerians on how to perform National Identification Number modifications and other services on its self-modification portal.
The Commission issued this advisory in a statement signed by its spokesperson, Kayode Adegoke, on Thursday.
NIMC told applicants for the NIN Data Modification to please note the following steps:
Single Browser and Device Access: Your self-service account is uniquely tied to the browser and device used during registration. Access to your account is therefore limited to that specific browser on that particular device.
NIN Record Modification: To change your NIN record, you must log in using the same browser and device originally used to register the account. Any attempt to use a different browser or device may result in access issues.
Cache Clearing Warning: Clearing your browser cache will reset the browser and may lock your account. If this occurs, the account will require an unlinking process to regain access.
Unlock Attempt Limit: Once your browser and device are locked, you are permitted a maximum of five (5) unlock attempt requests. Please be advised that no further requests will be processed after this limit is exceeded.
The Commission added that, “These are some of the measures put in place by the Commission to safeguard and protect the identity of the users of the self-service modifications portal.
“NIMC urges all users to carefully follow these guidelines to avoid unnecessary disruptions and delays. Your cooperation is greatly appreciated as the Commission continues to safeguard your data and improve service delivery.”
