Earlier, we reported that the National Identity Management Commission (NIMC) server was down, which affected the operations of telecoms, banks, and some government agencies who rely on the service to verify the NIN of their customers before attending to them.

But now, The National Identification Number verification service portal has been fully restored, according to the commission.
NIMC head of corporate communications, Kayode Adegoke, made this known in a statement over the weekend.
The statement read, “The National Identity Management Commission (NIMC) is pleased to announce that the National Identification Number (NIN) Verification Service (NVS) portal, which went down a few days ago due to maintenance by one of the Commission’s network service providers of its infrastructure, has been fully restored.
“Consequently, customers and service providers can now take full advantage of the two verification platforms – Tokenization and NVS – which are both effective for verification and authentication of the National Identification Number.
“NIMC extends its profound gratitude to the general public and partners for their support during the NVS downtime and use of the tokenisation platform.
“The Commission will continue to come up with innovative identity management solutions to enhance its capacity to deliver on its mandate.”
