Design and Implementation of a Computerized National Identity Card Processing System
CHAPTER ONE
AIMS AND OBJECTIVES
For the fact that this project research is aimed at having comprehensive review of the manual system of operation being carried out in the Identity Card section of the Department of National Civil Registration Anaocha Local government area of Anambra state into a computerized system. the following will be taken into consideration fro subject matters. They are:
- Ensure accurate and timely update of the holder record.
- Check multiple possession of the National Identity card.
- Deprive immigrant who are not citizen of the country form obtaining the national identity card.
- A proper account of the identity card issued.
- Finally, a proper storage system which keeps all vital information ready for use.
CHAPTER TWO
LITERATURE REVIEW
Webster’s Ninth New Collegiate Dictionary defines Identity Card as a formal document that is used by an authorized official of a country to one of it’s citizen.
The Question is “what is an identity card? As defined by many authors and dictionary including encyclopedia, it is a national document certifying state/Nationality, issued by the Government of a Country to every individuals or person that is of the stipulated age of ownership. From the definition, National Identity Card can also be called a true image of an individual or persons because it tells well about a person.”
Identity card as defined cannot be acquired from neither from school nor home. But, there is a special organization or ministry that clakes charge of both processing and administration of National Identity Card. The ministry of Internal Affairs Under the Department of National Civic Registration.

CHAPTER THREE
DESCRIPTION AND ANALYSES OF THE EXISTING SYSTEM
The existence of the computerized National Identity Card processing and Administration does not give a full criteria of what is required to process a particular identity card. Computer as we all know, is used to store and process a particular identity card and process data and records. Likewise the computer used in the identity card section because of aspect of the identity card activities are carried out with aid of the computer while the rest are carried out manually. The parable mode of operation is very expensive to maintain and it is very difficult to operate. This is because a high and intensive is needed in order to avoid the risk of fraud in the identity card section.
CHAPTER FOUR
DESIGNING OF THE NEW SYSTEM
The purpose of the system is to produce specifications, which will enable a complete, accurate. And specialized implementation of the new system. the new system designed after a detailed analysis of the existing system. the functional units of the existing system were studied, the problem associated with them were detected and possible solutions in the new design.
CHAPTER FIVE
IMPLEMENTATION THE NEW SYSTEM
The new design is computerized. It was designed to solve the problem in line with the existing system. A skeletal guides to the development of the new program code, detailed under this chapter. Also the program design pseudocodes, flowcharts, and source program codes are all contained in this chapter.
PROGRAM DESIGN
The program complexity were broken down into simplier units and solved separately and individually. The units were represented as module in the artifacts of the design. This makes it easy for modifications in order to meet with the new technological changes. There were a total of three modules in the entire program design. A earlier, stated. The modules were represented individually.
ENTR/UPDATE MODULE
This module takes care of all the entries concerning the system as well as the modifications on already keyed in data. The entries are made through the keyboard. The update as well makes necessary update as requested and equally updates the content of the master file. The entry module takes care of automatic savings of the entered records. It is sensitive and interactive in information handling.
REPORT MODULE
This report module generates results form processed information. It works on the special request from the user. It acts as a data base, where we can sort or determine a particular item to search for. It also gives a report on the particular file by sending the printer or printing on the screen.
CHAPTER SIX
DOCUMENTATION
This chapter details the manual guide on how to run the program effectively. All the steps that will help in the smooth running and operating or using the program are all documented.
CHAPTER SEVEN
CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION
CONCLUSION
The work has been designed and computerized for the National Identity Card section of the department of National Civic Registration under the ministry of internal affairs. To assess and monitor the procurement of the National Identity Card by individuals in order to eradicate the forgery and duplication of National Identity Cards thereby restricting individuals only to one national identity card for citizens. Using QBASIC Program is a way of manipulating the processes involved in the assessment to bearest minimum.
Computer has made work very ready and interesting. The national identity card as produced in time and adequate measures are taken to maintain proper record and security pursuits. This work made the staff to have more time to themselves. Also by implementing of this work, the huge maintenance of he manual record system will drastically be reduced.
RECOMMENDATION
Computer has all times proven its superiority over every other technological invention. To this effect, I recommend that for further elaboration on this project.
- – Every aspect of the National Identity Card operation should cease to a manual operation.
- – A system analyst should be employed to make-up the board of decision that are responsible for planning and implementing the attire of National Identity Card issuance and assessment.
- – The workers should be given more inceanans to enable them put in relenting efforts in discharging their duties.
- – The computerization should be maintained up-to date at all times.
- – Security code inscription should be maintained on all the National Identity Card.
- – The staff should be trained to very computer literate.
- – The program should be modified to suit all the sections of Department of national civic registration.
