Banky W has expressed his distaste over the government’s constant threat to citizens to get their National Identity Number (NIN) despite the increased cases of coronavirus.
“In the middle of the pandemic, this is how our Nigerian government has its citizens queuing up to get their NIN numbers. Completely reckless, inconsiderate, and dangerous. Then tomorrow the NCDC will release covid infection rates and say social distancing. This country sha. Kai," he tweeted.
In a second tweet, he tagged the handles of the NCDC and the Nigerian Government saying; “This is completely irresponsible of us as a country, to insist on this mad scramble for NIN numbers in the middle of Covid’s 2nd wave. People are dying. We should be smarter/wiser/better than this for goodness sake."
Well, we agree with Banky W, even though some citizens aside from the pandemic being involved have refused to get their NIN. We’ve also come across bants on Twitter opposing the movement. One peculiar one was a tweet that read, “We challenge you as an organization to do your worst”… so hilarious. Have you gotten your NIN or you’re among the coconut head party?
