The National Identity Management Commission has sought the collaboration of the National Orientation Agency to intensify National Identification Number, NIN, enrolment across Yobe State.
The NIMC State Coordinator, Moses Fariku, made the call during a courtesy visit to the NOA State Directorate in Damaturu.
Fariku highlighted the strategic role of the National Orientation Agency in mobilising citizens through sustained sensitisation and community-based communication channels, noting that such collaboration would significantly boost NIN enrolment, modification, and recovery across the state’s seventeen (17) local government areas.
He said leveraging NOA’s communication platforms would enhance public understanding of the benefits and mandatory nature of NIN registration.
In her response, the Acting State Director of NOA in Yobe, Maryam Shettima, welcomed the NIMC delegation and assured them of the agency’s full commitment to the partnership.
She pledged that NOA would intensify awareness campaigns and sensitisation activities across all one hundred and seventy-eight (178) political wards in the state, adding that the agency would deploy its grassroots structures and stakeholders’ networks to ensure wider participation in the enrolment drive.
