That's part of the next level from your Darling Daddy.

neyohh:



Lol , the us is protecting their interests from China but has internal databases for planning and tracking.

You need the citizens info for planning/security.
Eg.
Ni , public services card, nhs etc.


Nigerians are not ready for true development at all.

True development!!?? LMAO. So tracking of citizens is now true development!!?? When we have a government we can trust we'd gladly give them out data. Not these bunch of clowns.

If someone has your mobile phone IMEI number and has negative intentions he can commit fraudulent activities like the following:

CLONING
If someone has your mobile phone IMEI, this someone can clone your phone and if it happens that both phones are switched on while connected to the same telecom operator, the telecom operator will disable them both.
This usually happens on the same mobile operator or between mobile operators with a direct roaming agreement (almost all countries in the world). If the cloned phone is used in another country (or with an operator that doesn’t have a direct roaming agreement with the mobile operator used by the original phone) the two phones could actually work.

TRACKING
Anyone who knows your IMEI number is potentially capable to track your location, wherever you are in the world.

TAPPING
Anyone who knows your IMEI number is potentially capable of tapping into your phone conversations and text messaging and this can lead to the following issues ----------

FRAUD
By knowing your IMEI number it is possible to place calls and charge your account used with that IMEI number.
In countries where the phone account is also used to transfer credit, credits can be transferred out of your account.

IMPERSONATION
By cloning your phone people can send text messages (for example to your contact list) pretending to be you. In this circumstance, recipients are more likely to open and click links thereby included.

IDENTITY THEFT
By cloning your phone, hackers are capable to receive text messages originally sent to you. For example text messages including pin and authentication codes, generally used by third party services (on-line services, banking, etc.)

Ogar, nobody is pulling your call records, sms or geo tagging without a court order.
What true development are you phising for spying on phone conversations of private individuals? What has private sms interaction between citizens got to do with national planning?
Except you want to turn Nigeria to communist North Korea where people walk around with painted smiles on.

We are gradually entering Slavery Mode

Nigerians Slam NCC’s IMEI, Phone IDs Directive: We Deserve Some Privacy!

Nigerians don’t deserve more privacy - almost the best definition for a third world citizen is anyway Anonymous since the First World state is more present in the lives of citizens than is the Third World state in the lives of her citizens. Besides, nothing is better for the citizens of a Nation like Nigeria - whose citizens are characterised by Free Abandonment, including the abandoning of all personally responsibility to society- than to be monitored, tagged, registered, categorized , referenced and sub-referenced to within an inch of your lives.

You Cheerleaders of Police killers, Terrorists, Kidnapers and all manner of miscellaneous anarchy certainly don’t deserve anonymity!

There is no cause for arguement here, even the dead will not obey this.

NCC and Pamtani are up for something and this time around, it won't work.

Anyone that send his mobile IMEI to Government is already dead before he or she dies.

What have they done with the NIN gathered since? Bandictry keeps on kiddnapping, killing and maiming, yet they made use of mobile phones which could or has not been tracked down by the DSS. They call politicians numbers to sell human parts to them, no one has been caught.

What privacy does your IMEI give away?

Silly us. These are people that want to go and stay in London. Where all your movement is captured and recorded on a CCTV, the length and breath of the city.

Same clowns who praise America and Canada where you cannot do anything tangible and legit with your life without submitting a Social Security number or a social insurance number.

Pls, what privacy does your IMEI reveal other than your location. And is that not what is obtainable in the West, with your social media accounts?

Just be complaining like deranged donkeys up and down.

Plz shut up and stop Embarrassing yourself, you don't know what is IMEI

What's Pathetic Pantanmi the terrorist looking for in people's IMEI .

Now i believe in end time..
Before now i thought people are saying it just to scare many people but with this Buhari's government, i strongly urge everyone to prepare for judgement day..

This government is an end time government.....

[quote author=ALLFATHER14 post=101920321][/quote]

The point is your IMEI is already with social media companies, you gave the info out for free but won't do the same for your country, yet you want to have the same type of western development.

Infact the west will collapse without it's wealth of databases.

You guys ain't ready and i hope to God y'all pay for being stupid so can change your ways.

Chief101:
In the United States of America, your phone IMEI is registered when you are either buying a new line or switching phones.

It does not matter whether the phone is locked or not.
This makes tracking people more efficient.

America is not ruled by a terrorist organisation

Useless government,it will not work

Miyetti Allah terrorist are in charge of communication system.

I pray Biafra telecom system is restored soon. We will not register anything with Nigeria anymore, we no dey do again.

Block everybody nah.

JesseJo:


If you are the govt you will approve CCTV for over 360K sqm of area abi?

Lousy thinker

What is this one saying now?... America is way bigger than Nigeria?.... It's like you Dont know what you're saying... Imagine that you are a Politician in an opposition party and you are constantly criticizing the ruling party.. With your IMEI in their DATABASE, You could be traced and assassinated... I have always known that NIN no go do this GOVERNMENT cos they can't view your location with NIN...
IMEI is used by DICTATORIAL GOVERNMENT who want to SILENT their PEOPLE... THIS project has already failed on arrival...
BOYS GO GENERATE IMEI SOTEY, NA DEM GO TIRE... Imagine FEMI asking his CLIENT to give him the IMEI of her FAMILY'S PHONE... Location go dey INDICATE Maryland, Baltimore while Femi dey OKE-ARO in AKURE

I LAUGH IN SWEDISH

These people initiating this fraudulent policy cannot be trusted with our lives savings and our destinies.

History is about to repeat again, Fulani jihadist are coming for people's monies in the banks.

Never again will they give our parents another 20pounds; instead we will be the ones to give them 10,000 to start afresh as our people did after the Biafran forces seized fires in 1970.

Nigeria is not yet ripe for this thing. The Yahoo boys will not like this news. phone thief's will hate you.

Nigerians hate innovation, you can't eat your cake and have it. if you want security, you must sacrifice something,

Nothing goes for nothing. The FBI and CIA has become too powerful because Americans have ceded a lot of power to them

What are you even talking about?

Before you make comments like this make sure you have been to the west. What other things have those west countries provide for their citizens. If it's all about security why need all this information for just security reasons since the nin registration how many people have they arrested using the nin as a source of capture. Let's not bring the west into it because they have advance tech that we dont have. And again your why would the county need location for we dont even have a personal satellite. The only way to have the data of all the citizen is for us to embark on census once you counted you will be assign a number like BVN when you want to do anything the number will be ask from you and once the number is inputted in a spacial device. We know what to do just that they still want to keep 1 million kano vote of children voter's. Lets leave it here. Good day

TOPCRUISE:
If they want IMEI number federal government should go and manufacture phones and put their own IMEI number there. They claim they know where bandits and terrorists are located, yet they have not acted on that. It is our comments and calls that they want to be monitoring because freedom of digital communication is not in the Constitution.

Only a terrorist will ask Nigerians to cough out their privacy and sadly the person is Pantami the minister of communication

From ur comment it seems u have zero knowledge of how these things work but to make it little bit clear; NCC is too lazy for asking us to submit our IMEI & this is as a result of very low manpower in the agency. In real sense after linking NIN to SIM numbers, it's easier for NCC to detect the phone numbers being linked to the phones Nigerians use including the IMEI but because the manpower is too low and the workers are lazy they can't program their systems to do these work.
Ordinary police stations in Nigeria track IMEI's of phones through SIM cards and it's NCC that make it accessible for them.
We complain abt insecurity and when govt is trying to ameliorate the situation we also complain. Which kind of people are we?

IYANGBALI:
mynd44 has banned them

Your wish

if everyone will get one mind we get them quite with their treat, let them do their worst, is getting out of hand.as for me, am not doing anything, I regret linking one of my sim to that rubbish NIN

Next will be our ATM PIN NUMBERS, Nigerians hope u are enjoying the Next Level phobia

Homeboiy:
I go buy android phone

Then change the imei
Give them

God help you if its the IMEI of a fraudster and you are caught. What will you tell the authorities.

I will agree with you partly.

In the West, the government does not have your IMEI or SIM card information; if they need it they can get it from the provider through a court order.

The government already have SIM information due to mandatory registrations in the Nigeria, so getting the IMEI of the phone does not give them the information or tracking capability they do not have before, moreso with SIM they can easily get the IMEI information from the providers.

SIM card info is all they need and it is far better because they can log the IMEI info all each and every phone that the SIM card is inserted into.

Lastly, asking for IMEI info is foolheaded, as the criminals they want to catch or intended on tracking can change their phone IMEI number, all you need is root access to the phone and viola! you can change your IMEI number, but it is more difficult if not near impossible to change your SIM info, moreso if you are able to change your SIM info, you lose access to your provider as they use your SIM to phone number mapping as a unique identifier for you.

I think NCC is running out of ideas or they are just trying to sensitize the public that, they are 'doing something' about the security situation in the country, otherwise I see no reason asking the general public to give you a piece of data piece-wise that you already have access to wholesale and in bulk and which access the laws of the land already gave you power to access....If NCC ask MTN or Globacom to give them access to all the active IMEI numbers and phone types in Nigeria, they will be delivered on a plate of gold and with immediate effective, so why make noise about it in the public domain?
