The National Population Commission (NPC) has launched the online self-service for the registration of birth.
The NPC in a statement said people can now register their birth or that of their children with ease in the comfort of their homes at https://nationalpopulation.gov.ng
The National Population Commission (NPC) revealed that only persons below 18 years of age will be issued birth certificates.
The NPC State Director Oyo State, Mr Akin Oyetunde, disclosed this on Tuesday in Ibadan.
He said, “The NPC is guided by an Act propagated in 1992, so any child born before 1992 will not be issued a birth certificate.
“Instead of a birth certificate, people born before 1992 and those over 18 years old will be given an Attestation of Birth.
