President Jonathan today August 28th launched the new national e-ID card
at the Villa in Abuja. The new e-ID card which is powered by
MasterCard is a multi-purpose card for
identification, electronic signatures, and can be used for depositing money, withdrawing and making payments. So it's both an ID card and ATM.
The
first phase of the project will see 13million Nigerians issued the card
while the next phase will target 100million Nigerians. The project is a
partnership with MasterCard, the Nigerian National
Identity Management Commission and Access bank. naijagist
