NiRA Policies On .gov.ng Domain Registration!

NiRA Policies On .gov.ng Domains!

Nira has set a policy that segments and provides all local governments with domains different from the state domain. Local government should be registered under a state initials example abcd local government of Plateau state should be registered as abcd.pl.gov.ng.

That is the case with commissions and institutions under the state should be registered like such name.pl.gov.ng

An alternative to this you can have a subdomain on the state website for such, to run as a sub domain. The local government or institution should liaise with the state to create a subdomain for the local government or commission in the state.

Bellow are state initials for the registration.

abj.gov.ng for Abuja Federal capital
ab.gov.ng for Abia State
ad.gov.ng for Adamawa State
ak.gov.ng for Akwa Ibom State
an.gov.ng for Anambra State
be.gov.ng for Benue State
bo.gov.ng for Borno State
bu.gov.ng for Bauchi State
by.gov.ng for Bayelsa State
cr.gov.ng for Cross River State

eb.gov.ng for Ebonyi State
ed.gov.ng for Edo State

Note that sub domain is always under the primary domain and privacy may be compromised on such as all will be login using the same credentials and have a master permision to all files. Registering under the state initials is the best and security wise!
