The sure way is Through a replied SMS from your mobile network operator (MTN, Airtel, Glo 9mobile) stated that your submission has been successfully verified and linked.
Mbile Network Operators has been communicating through there social media platforms, support pages, or chats that all customers that submitted their NIN will receive a confirmation message once it has been varified and linked.

These are some of the tweets from network providers on twitter about that.
My apologies for the delayed response; please know that once you have submitted your NIN, MTN will send a confirmation message when your NIN is verified and linked with your Number. All inconvenience is regretted. ^CS
