“We have arrested some illegal operators of NIMC activities by some Business Centre operators in Kano metropolis. For three days we went round Kano and we successfully made arrest of some illegal NIN enrolment agents, who pretend to be licensed NIN enrolment agents and deceive some Nigerians to illegally enrol them into the NIMC database.”

It listed the documents found in the centres to include NIMC’s original NIN slips, fake NIMC plastics identity cards and other vital documents that were not supposed to be under the custody of non-NIMC staff.

It added that those arrested have been handed over to the Police and investigation has commenced, and they would be charged to court for prosecution after the investigation.

NIMC had warned Nigerians not to register with agents that are not duly licensed.
