The JAMB registrar cited ongoing difficulties being faced by candidates in the NIN registration, adding that the NIN requirement as a precondition for the UTME and Direct
Prof. Isha-q Oloyede said the NIN would, however, be a necessary requirement in the 2021 UTME and Direct Entry registrations. Learn More Nigeria believes the reason was due to lack of facilities by the governing body of NIMC to cover the total number of applicants as they troop in massively into NIMC every day to get their NIN so as to enable them register for their UTME for the ongoing session.
Reports also reached Learn More Nigeria that the difficulties faced by candidates in NIN registration including alleged extortion by National Identity Management Commission (NIMC) officials as they complain it is suggested that they used it as way of reducing the massive crowds that troops into their officies daily.
Learn More Nigeria sees this as a great news for the current IJMB students as they need not to worry about an NIN registration to facilitate the direct entry while preparing for their IJMBE final examination. This news has brought joy on so many faces considering the number of weeks they have been continuously queuing at the NIMC offices without been able to get their NIN at the end of the day.
