The National Identity Management Commission (NIMC) has announced the launch of two new digital customer support channels for improved service delivery.
According to the Commission, are aimed at improving accessibility, responsiveness, and service delivery for Nigerians and legal residents seeking assistance with National Identification Number (NIN) related enquiries.
The Head, Corporate Communications Unit, Kayode Adegoke, in a statement explained that the two channels were: a Live Chat feature on its official website and an official WhatsApp support platform to provide Nigerians and legal residents with faster, more convenient, and real-time access to support services.
He noted that the launch of the channels was part of ongoing reforms and digital transformation initiatives under the leadership of the Director General/CEO, Engr. Abisoye Coker-Odusote.
According to him, the initiative reflects the Commission’s commitment to service innovation, citizen-centered engagement, and efficient identity management service delivery in line with the Renewed Hope Agenda of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR), aimed at improving public sector efficiency and enhancing access to government services through technology-driven solutions.
He said the newly introduced platforms were also designed to provide prompt responses to enquiries, real-time guidance, and improved customer interaction from anywhere and at any time, reducing the need for physical visits while enhancing user experience and operational efficiency.
“Under the visionary leadership of Engr. Abisoye Coker-Odusote, NIMC continues to implement strategic reforms and innovative digital solutions focused on expanding access, strengthening public trust, and improving service delivery for all Nigerians and legal residents,” Adegoke added.
The Commission encouraged the public to take advantage of these official communication platforms for verified information, prompt assistance, and updates regarding NIN services and other identity management matters.
NIMC further advised citizens to remain vigilant and engage only through its official communication channels to avoid misinformation and fraudulent activities.
