Engr Emma Mbaka, one of the greatest philanthropist of our time from Eluama autonomous community in Isiukwuato, Abia State has partnered with the State National Identity Management Commission to register members of his immediate community in order to obtain the now mandatory National Identification Number (NIN).

This is in his bid to ensure that every member of the community adheres strictly to the mandate of the Ministry of Communication and digital Economy directing members of the public to link their NIN to their SIM, hence the stipulated deadline accompanied by the threat to demobilise phone lines not linked.

Speaking to our reporter, a representative of Mbaka hinted that the exercise was targeted first at the elderly, incapacitated, pregnant or nursing mothers and indigent ones “who may not be able to stay long at the usual queues in the various NIMC offices first before the able bodied ones”, she explained.
