National Identity Management Commission should think again

National Identity Management Commission (NIMC)

How would the National Identity Management Commission come up with an irrational decision that for a common man to have his NIN details altered/changed he has to pay the sum of N15,000?

Evidently, majority of Nigerians cannot afford three square meals per day and at the same time they are being unfairly treated by their own government.

Even if they are to be charged for the alteration at least the amount shouldn’t exceed N5000 at maximum or N3000 minimum.

I will like to call on the body concerned to look into this decision and change it to what will be affordable to Nigerians.
