The Federal Government has revived Nigeria’s long-delayed digital postcode project and commenced its integration with the National Identification Number (NIN), a move expected to transform address verification, improve public service delivery and strengthen the country’s digital identity system.
The initiative was officially launched following the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between the National Identity Management Commission (NIMC) and the Nigerian Postal Service (NIPOST) in Abuja.
