You should not remove it, and it has been there before. Check e.g. http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions ... -and-group
Or do you mean you can choose nobody user in the login screen? Then please mentioned what Mageia release you are using and also what login manager. Check https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Display_Managers for examples for the ones that are most frequently used.
