Nigeria born British boxer, Anthony Joshua has registered and has been issued Nigeria’s National Identification Number (NIN) slip after visiting the National Identity Management Commission (NIMC) office on Tuesday.

The NIMC took to its Twitter page to share photos of the world heavyweight star during the registration process.

NIMC tweeted:

The post did not state the location where the boxer was issued his slip.

Though a Nigerian-British, Joshua never hides his love for Nigeria and always identifies with the most populous black nation whenever the occasion demands.

Recall that he recently visited the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.) in London to present his belt title to him.

Since the NIMC posted photos of Joshua at its office on social media, it has sparked a series of reactions from Nigerians.

While some are commending Joshua for always flying the flag of Nigeria, other Twitter users are accusing the NIMC of double standard, as they lament that the process of enrolling for NIN is always cumbersome which has discouraged many Nigerians from visiting the registration centers.
