The Ministry of Education and Sports has ordered for the registration of all school going children, starting from the age of 5 years.

“The programme seeks to ensure registration of learners and assign them National Identification Numbers (NINs). Those of 16 years and above will be issued with the National Identity Cards,” reads the letter which was issued yesterday by Alex Kakooza, the Ministry’s Permanent Secretary.

The letter, sent to all RDCs, LC V chairpersons, CAOs/Town Clerks, DISOs, Mayors among others, indicates that Registration Forms will be delivered centrally to districts.
