According to her, the figure was an increase of 3.2m or 3.2 per cent, from 104m in December 2023.

 

 

 

 

 

She stated that this accomplishment stems from the strategic plan implemented by the current NIMC management, aligned with its 5-Point Agenda to capture all Nigerians in the shortest possible time.

 

 

 

 

 

She said, “As of this morning, the total enrolment on our database is 107.34m which is more than half of the projected Nigerian population.
