The National Identity Management Commission on Tuesday, cautioned Nigerians against illegal registration on the streets for the National Identity card. Lagos State Coordinator of the Commission, Mr Tayo Adeniyi, said that those carrying out such registration on the streets are not officials of the commission. He said NIMC has created nearly 44 centres to facilitate registration and collection of the national identity cards across the state.
He added that the centers were spread across the entire local governments and the Local Council Development Areas in the state. “The people you see outside are not our staff; they are running their own business centres. The only thing we go against is when we see our logo in the centre. We will alert the security agents, and the Department of State Services to effect their arrests because they have been labeling us that they are our agents,” He said.
