There was minimal adherence to the COVID-19 protocol as guardians and their wards flooded the NIMC office in Alausa to correct various errors made during the registration of their National Identification Number (NIN).
The Joint Admission Matriculation Board (JAMB) had mandated that all
candidates must provide their NIN as a criterion for the registration of this year’s UTME.
To register for this year’s exams, applicants are expected to text their NIN to 55019 in order to get profile codes that are needed to purchase UTME e-Pin.
