Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) has ordered telecommunications companies to halt the sale and activation of Subscriber Identification Module (SIM).

This comes ahead of an audit of the Subscriber Registration Database.

In a statement on Wednesday, Director, Public Affairs, Ikechukwu Adinde, said the directive will be in effect until the audit is completed.

He noted that the Minister of Communications and Digital Economy, Isa Pantami, instructed the NCC to conduct the exercise.

However, an exemption might be granted if the federal government approves.

NCC warned that non-compliance by network operators could lead to withdrawal of operating license.

The inspection is to ensure that the firms comply with quality standards and requirements.

This country won't head towards progress.. Cos nothing is stable. One morning any agency can just wake and implement one rule or policy just out of the blue, without any prior notice or alternative.
Is there no other way to make the audit without stopping registration of new sims.. This Nigeria will find a way to frustrate someone. Each new day new wahala..

What?? why?? Silly government with no sense.

Imagine an investor comes into Nigeria and they tell him sorry you can’t use your phone because we cannot give you a SIM card.

�Is this the first time they are auditing?
they should please tell us why they have to suspend the whole operation because of account... for me, it's not necessary, unless they have ulterior motives

Misplaced Office

About to render many retailers jobless.
Instead to ask communication companies to reduce their data and call tariff, you're here rendering people jobless because none of your family member are in the business. God will continue to punish you wicked souls.

It's somewhat needed with the recent news of old sim cards being revamped and resold, that alone is more than capable of criminally putting an innocent person in trouble.
