The National Identity Management Commission (NIMC) has
sparked an outrage on Twitter after tweeting about Anthony Joshua,
British-Nigerian boxer.
The agency on Tuesday shared photos of the heavyweight
champion enrolling for the national identification number on Twitter.
“Anthony Joshua @anthonyfjoshua enrolls for the National
Identification Number and issued his NIN slip,” it wrote.

But this did not go down well with some Nigerians who accused the commission of giving the boxer preferential treatment.
Below are reactions from Twitter.I've enrolled for this national ID card since 2014, and I'm yet to be issued a permanent ID card. All I've to show for it is the slip.— Olamide Obe (@olajideobe) February 18, 2020
But Anthony Joshua will most definitely get issued a permanent ID card before me.
Nigeria is for the highest bidder. https://t.co/a3Sgfg2Wps
Anthony Joshua got his slip same day! But you people will tell me to come back in 2 weeks. You're all wicked— Uncle Lanfe (@OAdelanfe) February 18, 2020
Did you guys tell Anthony Joshua that his National ID won't be ready till 2030 or we should tell him? https://t.co/tTTEQXH6FS— Wale Adetona (@iSlimfit) February 19, 2020
On the flip side, Anthony Joshua would get his National ID tomorrow. He's not a common man like you and me. This system is not meant for the common man, it's meant for the rich and connected. Stop stressing it. Get rich or japa.— Wale Adetona (@iSlimfit) February 19, 2020
All I'm waiting for is how long it will take Anthony Joshua to get his National ID after registration, because some people have registered since 2015 and they're yet to get it, with the lil Mathematics that I know, Anthony Joshua should get his National ID by 2025 or we protest.— Zaddy Ajala (@UNCLE_AJALA) February 19, 2020
I applied for my national ID since 2015. I hope Anthony Joshua's will not be ready before mine. He just applied now— Obinna Nwosu (@obi_Nwosu) February 19, 2020

Without doubt, he will collect his permanent card before millions that have registered since 2013... The temporary issue to him is to prevent backlash from ordinary Nigerians that continue to be waiting for their permanent card— OGUNDELE Idowu (@iaogundele) February 18, 2020
Did he pay #500?— The Essentials (@ThEssentials_) February 19, 2020
Did he queue?
Did you give him keg to go buy fuel?
Did he also have to come back after 1week?
Did you relate with him with your saucy attitude?
You ,all of you are sick ...
Anthony Joshua: In summary, to God we are created equal, but to men what you have made out of your life determines how you will be treated. #NIMC https://t.co/oOTzoScOQA— Ayemojubar (@ayemojubar) February 19, 2020
Why cant you guys make it this easy for vast majority of Nigerians this same way? Anthony Joshua is a special Nigerian right? God is watching all of us. @iammaleekpholly @Gidi_Traffic @nairaland @trafficbutter @nidcom_gov https://t.co/RRV8rLOVTQ— Chidi Peter. O. (@IdentikalTwins) February 19, 2020
Sadly, Anthony Joshua is getting the Permanent National ID before me that enrolled 2 years ago 😭😂 https://t.co/9MegrtHJhN— Lawal David O. (@misterseun_) February 19, 2020
1+1 = 2 , if Wizkid or Davido wears Gucci, Nigerians will buy— SON OF PH SOIL (@ajuicygeorge) February 19, 2020
So if Anthony Joshua registers for National ID Nigerians will register. We know this Strategy 😂 pic.twitter.com/NMUBhjLGTp

Where is the outrage? I was issued the NIN slip the same day I registered in 2015just like they did for AJ now. I am yet to be issued the permanent ID card and will only be outraged if he gets his permanent ID card before mine
