F G SUSPENDEDS THIRD PARTY FROM CONDUCTING NIN REGISTRATION.


 The National Identity Management Commission has temporarily suspended Front-End Partners from engaging in the National Identification Number enrolments.

This is because the commission is currently carrying out a revalidation exercise of these third-party registration centres.The Director General, NIMC, Abisoye Coker-Odusote disclosed this while noting that NIMC has identified multiple infractions and unwholesome practices in the processes of National Identity Number enrolment and modification.Coker-Odusote revealed this at the opening of a four-day training for the first batch of newly revalidated Front End Partners in Abuja.While assuring participants that revalidation is aimed at improving the enrolment process and addressing outstanding debts owed to the Front-End Partners, the DG stated that many infractions have been reported, with a significant number attributed Front-End Partners.Front-end partners provide enrollment services nationwide. She said, “My decision to direct the revalidation of all FEPs was not targeted at anyone or group. It was a step towards sanitizing the system and processes while ensuring the integrity of data in the country’s identity database. It was also one of the steps towards proper auditing of the claims made by some of our FEPs. “Please be advised that the revalidation exercise is being implemented in phases. This is just the first and not the last. Let me use this medium to remind you all that NIN enrolment is free of charge in Nigeria. My administration has zero tolerance for corruption. We shall therefore not spare anyone found perpetrating corrupt practices or any other form of infractions.”The DG further explained that the revalidation exercise was part of steps towards ensuring compliance with the highest standards of data security among the FEPs. She noted, “Don’t forget that I inherited huge debts owed FEPs for over two years. Some of the invoices and claims were questionable, requiring proper auditing.  The rot in the process and system left me with no option but to take deliberate steps toward sanitizing the enrollment process. “And to this end, I directed that NIN enrolment activities at all FEP centers be suspended temporarily, pending the outcome of a revalidation exercise.”In October, NIMC announced the revalidation of its third-party agent licenses. At the time, the commission stated that the process was mandatory for all current partners and was intended to ensure compliance with the latest standards and protocols.Commenting on the issue of kidnapping in the country, NIMC disclosed that it is working with the Nigerian Communications Commission and security agencies to ensure the use of NIN and SIM databases to track down kidnappers and victims of kidnapping.The DG of NIMC, Coker-Odusote, stated this at a stakeholder engagement with the Nigeria Identification for Development Project in Abuja.  The DG who spoke through her technical assistant, Ayobami Abiola, said, “NIMC is working very closely with the security agencies to ensure that we can use the NIN in a way which helps to secure the Country.

    The unexpected gender dynamic shaping the 2024 election Analysis by. El-zion Global Network News. All signs suggest that the partisan divide over changing gender roles in society could widen even further in the 2024 election, adding a new source of uncertainty to a contest already on a knife’s edge. Donald Trump's recent declaration to female voters that  "I will be your protector ' offered the latest demonstration of the former president’s determination to consolidate the voters most committed to traditional gender roles and family structures – a culturally conservative group that includes not only many men but also a large number of women. In the process, though, political strategists in both parties believe the GOP nominee risks further alienating the broad array of voters who are comfortable with the social changes that have challenged those traditional patterns of family life, especially women. Younger, college-educated and single women are likely to be particula...
