Nigeria,
like other countries, has an ultimate goal of establishing a
good identification system, as the identification
of the entire populace is a strong tool for social
control.
The objective of SDR is to establish a unique database for secure enrolment, authentication, establishment of unique identity and card issuance.
The database is accessed through a secure verification process to offer value-added services to financial, healthcare, government and other sectors of the economy. These services can be via direct reporting/query terminals or via the Internet.
The solution guarantees uniqueness of all identities created and accuracy of data provided on every enrollee as well as form the basis for identification in consumer banking and credit transactions.
