Project Abstract

Abstract
The use of fake Nigerian national identification cards by foreigners has become a pressing issue in recent years, posing significant challenges and raising concerns about national security and identity verification. This research project aims to explore the problems associated with the use of fake Nigerian national IDs by foreigners, as well as the prospects for addressing this issue effectively. The study will investigate the various reasons why foreigners resort to using fake Nigerian national IDs, including the desire to gain access to employment opportunities, financial services, and other benefits reserved for Nigerian citizens. It will also examine the methods used to create and obtain these counterfeit IDs, shedding light on the extent of the problem and the sophistication of the fraudulent activities involved. Furthermore, the research will analyze the implications of using fake Nigerian national IDs by foreigners on national security, border control, and immigration policies. By understanding the risks and vulnerabilities associated with identity fraud, policymakers and law enforcement agencies can develop strategies to enhance identity verification processes and prevent the misuse of fake IDs by individuals with malicious intent. In addition, the study will explore the potential prospects for mitigating the use of fake Nigerian national IDs by foreigners, such as the implementation of biometric technology, improved data management systems, and collaboration between government agencies and international organizations. By leveraging technology and fostering cooperation at the national and international levels, it may be possible to enhance the security and integrity of Nigeria's national identification system. Overall, this research project seeks to contribute to the existing body of knowledge on identity fraud and national security, providing insights into the challenges posed by the use of fake Nigerian national IDs by foreigners and offering recommendations for addressing this issue. By raising awareness of the risks associated with identity fraud and exploring potential solutions, this study aims to support efforts to safeguard the integrity of Nigeria's national identification system and protect the country's borders and citizens from external threats.
