President Jonathan yesterday 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. See more photos after the cut...
