The National Identity Management Commission (NIMC), has stated that in order to ensure the security and integrity of your National Identification Number (NIN) data, modification can only be done on the official NIMC self-service portal: Selfservicemodification.nimc.gov.ng.
Dr. Kayode Adegoke, head, Corporate Communications at NIMC, in a statement available to Techeconomy, reiterated that Nigerians should not attempt to modify their NIN data on any unauthorized websites, “as this may compromise your personal information and put you at risk of identity theft”.
“By using the official NIMC self-service portal, you can be rest assured that your data is secure and protected. You’ll also enjoy the convenience of updating your information from anywhere, at any time.
“So, remember: for all your NIN modification needs, click on Selfservicemodification.nimc.gov.ng.
