Protected by an Act – National IDs [Laxton, Producers of National IDs]
The National Registration Bureau (NRB) has denounced the growing tendency by some individuals, who are approaching it in a bid to have their particulars such as Date of Birth on their National ID cards amended.
Principal Secretary for NRB, Mphatso sambo, says they have noted with concern that some people, especially those trying to unlock opportunities within the country’s military and security agencies, are approaching their organization on the possibility of having their Date of Birth changed.
Sambo points out that changing the Date of Birth on National identity card is a restricted parameter which cannot be changed anyhow, stressing that such requests will not be entertained.
He adds that they are mandated by the National Registration Act of 2010 to protect the population register as presented by every citizen at the time of registration.
