You can PING numbers to locations...so if 10 people are kidnapped and you PING 12 people to the nearest tower...you can eliminate the victims by matching numbers used, and you can then identify the kidnappers...then track their prior calls to other numbers in order to arrest everyone involved. This is long overdue, and this is how some crimes are solved in sane countries. HOPE is here. It can also help with proceed of crimes...you can investigate financial crimes better if the numbers are linked to NIN. Now you know..

Initially una talk say una go use this NIN take track down terrorist and kidnappers but we never see the result. Nigeria na the only country wey go get good initiative but the result of that initiative go be catastrophic.
What do I even know sef? Make I enlighten my fellow men before leaving this thread.

This country is hopeless. A lot of people have been trying so hard to get NIN, but failed due to the incessant network outages from NIMC end. I have attempted to correct an issue affecting my NIN for months now, each time I get to NIMC office or their accredited agents, i was told no network, yet they are threatening to block lines. Is it my fault that they can't get their systems to run smoothly without going iff for days? Should I start sleeping in their offices just to get the stupid NIN? I'm just so tired of this country and majority of the foolish citizens that are hell-bent to keep us down. Abeg make dem block the lines make we rest.

The purpose of National Identification Number (NIN) linkage to sims is not to track terrorists and kidnappers, even though it can be used for that.

The purpose for the NIN linkage to sims is for control. The NIN issue was imposed by an international gruop for the purpose of control, with Nigeria being used as a test case.

Has the World Bank played a role in funding the NIN project?
Well, the World Bank has provided loans to the federal government for the NIN project.

How about the court order, directing the FG, telecom companies, and NCC not to disconnect any sim, pending the determination of the appeal against the ruling of the lower court?

Nobody is forcing you to link your NIN to your Sim card Is optional infact having sim card or NIN is not compulsory.

85% of lines are going to be disconnected. Who losses if not the network providers.

This approach is like setting the whole house ablaze so as to kill a rat that may have escape through the hole.

You use your phone to download apps...you use the phone to effect transactions ---> you can track the SIM to the NIN and identify. If it is not linked, its no different than a dark web...you do not know who is behind what...and anyone can deny it wasn't him or her. How many people have been rescued? Do you expect the Govt to disclose that? What is wrong with us.

There is no country in the world where you can have a functional cell phone with no identity trace.
If you can text the president of Nigeria on your cell phone. The country deserves to know who you are and where you are.
