mtn and airtel should not bother themselves with this porting whatever, no body is going to port to them, the number portability may be said to be targeted at them. Reason is that it is only people who bought their sims during the emergence of gsm in nigeria which are no longer satisfy withthe services being rendered to them by the networks on this number that they have given to the whole world that will want to port so that they won't loose their contacts. Not now that must of us already had sims CARD of all the networks.

There are strict guidelines for the porting process to be successful. And in answer to your question. A re-port can only be done after 3 months. This means that, ceteris paribus, you can change network provider every 3 months (excluding the 48hour porting process).
