The Nigeria House of Representatives has asked the National Communication Commission to extend the deadline for Nigerian Identification Number.
The extension is expected to last for 10 weeks, ending 28 February 2021 to give enough room for all citizens to register
The extension will also help to give Telecommunication companies enough time to register their customers
