The Director-General of the National Identity Management Commission (NIMC), Abisoye Coker-Odusote, has declared the agency’s ambitious plan to register 95% of Nigerians into the National Identity Database before December 2025.
Speaking during a briefing in Abuja, Coker-Odusote said the goal aligns with President Bola Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda, particularly on digital governance and inclusive development.
According to her, the mass enrollment drive will be powered by a combination of improved infrastructure, expanded registration centres, and robust public sensitization campaigns.
What we have done in this regard is that we will commence the Ward Enrollment Exercise to capture at least 95% of Nigerians before December, year end,” she said.
As of May 2025, NIMC reports over 120 million Nigerians have been enrolled, and about 100 million more would be captured by December. Coker-Odusote noted that the Commission is working assiduously to meet this target.
