The National Identity Management Commission (NIMC) has teamed up with the Renewed Hope National Home Grown School Feeding (RH-NHGSF) Programme, aligning with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Mandate. This strategic partnership aims to ensure every school child is enrolled and assigned a National Identification Number (NIN), promoting inclusive access to the school feeding program, transparency, and accountability.
This partnership between NIMC and the Renewed Hope National Home Grown School Feeding Programme, led by Engr. Abisoye Coker-Odusote and Princess Aderemi Adebowale, aims to register every school child for a National Identification Number (NIN).
Under this partnership, the NIMC will work closely with the RH-NHGSF Programme, signaling a major step forward in ensuring the program’s successful implementation of the school feeding initiative of the Federal Government of Nigeria.
The partnership between NIMC and the RH-NHGSF Programme is a game-changer for Nigeria’s children. By incorporating NIN registration into the school feeding program, the Federal Government is demonstrating its dedication to enhancing education and nutrition for kids, while also boosting the country’s Digital Public Infrastructure.
This strategic move is expected to improve educational outcomes, ensure children receive nutritious meals, and promote a more efficient and transparent school feeding program. It’s a win-win for Nigeria’s young minds and the country’s future growth.
The NIMC remains steadfast in its mission to leverage identity management solutions for the betterment of Nigerian lives, fostering equitable access to crucial services nationwide.
