The Senate says the implementation of the National Identity Number (NIN) policy has brought untold hardship to JAMB candidates and students.

“JAMB initially attempted to start the implementation of this policy in 2020/but had to postpone it owing to technical problems and irregularities bedevilling the process of obtaining NIN from NIMC.

“Mr President, remember that the whole of last year was taken over by COVID-19 and that restricted a lot of movement and it made it impossible for many students to have access to NIN. “Mr President, I want to state very clearly that the awareness of NIN has not been felt. There is no public enlightenment, many people don’t even understand what NIN stands for.“The awareness has not been taken to the grassroots; the enlightenment has not been taken to schools; it has not been taken to universities and tertiary institutions.
