Perhaps what may worry Nigerians is reports that a company called XpressVerify, an identity verification provider, had unrestricted access to the country’s National Identification Database. This news was first reported by the Foundation for Investigative Journalism (FIJN).

The FIJN report alleges, XpressVerify was selling digital identity numbers (NINs), full names, phone numbers, addresses and photographs. People’s personal information was shockingly cheap – selling for as little as 200 naira (US$0.13) per record.

Helt utrolig. Staten beg deg registrere dine opplysninger inkl. fingeravtrykk og s blir de solgt etterpå. Har jeg hørt om Nigeria før ????

Det er jo rart at IDEX ikke har børsmeldt dette da? De pleier jo å være raske med å melde om potensielle nye markeder og intensjonsavtaler, ja også gjerne mulige intensjonsavtaler?
Er ikke så lett å forholde seg til det de melder alltid...
Det ser vi jo resultatet av her "hele tiden" egentlig...
Det blir en mølle av spekulasjoner om hva som menes osv osv.

Men denne gang altså ikke et pip fra selskapet...?

Jeg tror ikke dette har noe med Nigeria å gjøre, bare at det er lite til salgs når noen ønsker litt volum.
Går mye skjult også merket jeg også.

Fortsatt godt under 60 øre gammel kurs - tror ikek jeg ville stått igjen på perrongen nå, for å si det sånn...

Enten er man inne ellers er man....kursmessig hamret for langt ned, klart at rekylen kommer

Alt som skulle til var "noen velvalgte ord" liksom?
Er ikke helt god denne? 😅

Det bli intressant se vad det nya kommer bli

The New National e-ID Card with Payment and Social Services

Introduction

NIMC 2007 ACT No. 23 provides for the establishment of the National Identity Database and the National Identity Management Commission with the responsibilities for maintenance of the National Database, the registration of individuals, and the issuance of General Multipurpose identity cards to Nigerians and legal residents.

Kjære poki.

Nå har du postet to africa id-kort som ikke har noe med fingeravtrykk og gjøre. Kunne vært greit og sjekket fakta før du legger ut?

«Additionally, Amazon Web Services, A&O Shearman, Barclays, CRIF, Dun & Bradstreet, Ernst & Young, HSBC, Lloyds Bank, Mastercard, Revolut, Santander, and Visa are involved. Regulatory bodies the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and the Payment Systems Regulator (PSR) round out the coalition.«


This initiative focuses on the role of digital verification as an important tool in the prevention of fraud and other financial crimes, which are estimated to cost the UK billions of pounds annually.

«As discussions around financial inclusion continue, various nations are grappling with the question of whether to move toward a cashless society. In countries like Nigeria and Ghana, digital payments are on the rise, and a future without physical cash seems increasingly possible.«
