@WorldBank #ID4D is sitting on ID coverage data 2021. Its latest data for 2017: 18.6% not covered. They are, consistently, vulnerable people, incl. SAGE beneficiaries.

Côte d'Ivoire. MPs asking for late registration outreach ('audiences foraines') 1/

This involves a registrar, physician (age assessment) and justice (jugéments supplétifs) going on the road. Expensive operation (around 2010: >$10/pax). Reportedly 3m.

Request is w/ view elections 2020. CDI elections have been excessively pricy. Problem is, inter alia, non-nationals are 25% of pop. That makes civil- and voter registration a sensitive matter.

In June this year only 5m IDs were issued. Tanzania's 1st national ID plan: 1968, 50yrs ago.

There's politics in confusion 'registered'/'issued'. Process takes >10 yrs, then starts for real.

Nigeria. The World Bank's $430m will now start flowing into , well, who knows.

Nigeria's ID has been in the making for 4 decades. NIMC has enrolled 38m folks, in 12 years, at cost $1.1b: ± $29/enrolment, many w/o card).

$430m will suffice for 160m, for $2.70/pax? This is how: Now don't be such a Doubting Thomas!

Read how the bank people will do this now: documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/501…
