The
National Identity Management Commission (NIMC) representative described
the advantages of the new national ID card. Apart from many other
things, it may also be used as an Automated Teller Machine (ATM) card
anywhere in the world where there is MasterCard logo.
Briefing journalists today in Abuja, NIMC’s Director of Technical Services, Mr Emmanuel Ogungbe disclosed the Commission have already signed an agreement with MasterCard with the...
new national ID card.
He explained that, besides being just an ID card, it is also a cash card, so the holder can withdraw money in any place. Moreover, especially within the West African sub-region, it soon would become possible to travel with this card only, passport-free.
Mr. Ogungbe called the card “a general-multi-purpose card”. All the holder needs to do, he maintained, is to present it at the point of entry of any country. After the information is checked, the entry would be allowed.
If everything goes well Nigerians will enjoy the new national ID card
