This is the latest news by the Federal Government that all network operators must block every SIM card not updated with valid National Identity Number (NIN) by December 30th!
Why do we like fire brigade approach in this country? How can they expect this to be done in two weeks? I feel like the government keeps looking for ways to add to the discomfort of its citizens! While the idea of updating the SIM cards with the NIN is not a bad idea, this two weeks is too short.
This sudden decision came after an urgent meeting of key stakeholders in the Communications industry convened by the Minister of Communications and Digital Economy, Dr. Isa Ali Ibrahim (Pantami) earlier this week.
