DATA

Nigerians just got a game-changing tool for digital privacy.

President Bola Tinubu officially rolled out NINAuth a smart app that puts you in the driver’s seat of your personal information. No more blind sharing. Now, you decide who sees what, when, and why.

Launched at the State House in Abuja, the event drew top officials including ministers and tax authorities. The National Identity Management Commission (NIMC) built this platform to end data chaos and empower citizens.

What Is NINAuth?

Think of it as your personal data command center.

  • You control access: Share only what’s needed for banking, SIM cards, school enrollment, or health plans.
  • Revoke anytime: Changed your mind? Pull back permission instantly.
  • One app, many IDs: Driver’s license, student loan, health card, BVN all in a secure digital wallet.
  • Instant verification: Scan a QR code. Done. No forms, no delays.

NIMC boss Abisoye Coker-Odusote called it a “data autonomy revolution”:

“Nigerians now own their information. Whether stopped by police or applying for a passport, open the app show your digital ID move on.”

How It Works in Real Life

  • Passport renewal? Scan and verify in seconds.
  • Opening a bank account? Share just your NIN-linked details.
  • Student loan? No paperwork—just consent and go.

The app links national databases tax, immigration, education, finance using your NIN as the master key. This stops fraud, cuts “ghost” entries in government programs, and boosts transparency.

Track Every Access—In Real Time

Worried who’s viewing your data? NINAuth shows when, who, and why your info was used. Full visibility. Total control.

Live demos at the launch proved it: From business registration to tax filing, everything just got faster and safer.

Why This Matters Now

Tired of repeating your details everywhere? Frustrated by data misuse? NINAuth ends that. It’s not just an app it’s your digital shield.

Will NINAuth finally fix Nigeria’s identity headaches? Download it, try it, and tell us in the comments!
