For any child to register for examinations, you are supposed to produce a birth certificate. If you do not have that certificate, you are sent away and this will lead to failure in the education sector. Also, when somebody wants to acquire a passport, they are required to produce their birth certificate. If we come up with a database in every civil registry, everybody will be registered and will have a birth certificate. So, it is a good idea and many of our kins will benefit from such a move."}
