However, these details are supposed to be kept secret and only required for official purposes only. Now that you need it to do some things regarding your account you might need to retrieve it.
Why BVN is Important
Identity theft and fraudulent transactions have become a menace to the global banking system in recent times. In order to ensure the trust relationship in the Nigerian banking system is not undermined, The Central Bank of Nigeria in collaboration with all Nigerian Banks launched Bank Verification Number (BVN) project on February 14, 2014. The BVN uniquely identifies every customer across the Nigeria Banking industry using biometric details. It is a requirement for operating a bank account in Nigeria as no withdrawal shall be made on accounts without validated BVN (customers in diaspora accounts were exempted till January 31, 2016).
