Ignore them. I've been ignoring them for 3 years in a row. When government is tired they will find something else to do.

Which line do you use? I use mtn and they didnt take any money for sending me that message. I always ignore those nin messages. Government is always looking for a way to keep Nigerians busy and their attention away from them.

huh

It is really disheartening still seeing messages on my phone every day telling me to link my NIN, something I've done since last year..

Nothing ever works in this country, just few seconds ago, my glo network completely went dumb, I couldn't make calls, telling me the network is not registered on the network, still experiencing it until now..

I had to resorts to MTN network, but yet, still not functioning properly

It a shame
same thing with. I registered my line long ago and I got an sms from mtn to register my line again.

They unlinked everyone and are now charging N20 to generate what they term virtual NIN (VNIN). Money for Gbola’s yacht must be completed, whether we like it or not

Seems the new minister in charge is just as dumb as the previous one Pantami. And I be think say this new guy get sense.

The only sensible person so far in this administration is that immigration guy that fixed the passport delay issues fast.

Everybody else are dumb idiotic mofos

Re: Confusion As Telcos Alert Subscribers To NIN-SIM Link Irregularities by Boldideas:
The fraud with NIN recently is that they now make money through remita by asking you to recapture all over again that your information is missing😈

So if N1,000 multiplies by 10,000,000 people going through recapturing their information twice that'll lead to about N20billion Naira. 😈😈😈

And you call it free.. This is nothing but evil!!!! How can you say the Remita one paid for has expired?

So many people unknowingly bought pre registered SIM. Those people by the road side selling SIM cards will do a DEMO as if you are being truly registered by collecting your DATA and BIOMETRICS. It's all a make believe action.
If you want to check after buying the SIM just call customer care and tell them you've just bought the SIM with (Your Name) and they should help you to confirm. You will be amazed with the reply.
I have once bought one like that (AIRTEL) at the gate of IKEJA LOCAL GOVERNMENT. When I called the customer care. I was told not to use the SIM to call again and that I should throw the SIM away immediately. And this is a SIM I cut myself from the SIM holder.
I have once bought another (9 MOBILE) at SANGO OTA UNDER BRIDGE after calling the customer care I was asked to go their Nearest customer care to complain, which I did because the office is few metres away from there. They simply collect the SIM remove all re Installed information and update it with our own. They said it is possible because we have only make less than 5 calls on it.
And again lọts of students have linked their JAMB registration with strangers mobile numbers. During National synchronisation and sharing of data. There will be problems with so many SIMS
This government should brace up and clean all this anomalies to reduce/forestall security problems across the country

There should be a link to get this done, to avoid crowds at the update centers

Na who do us this thing for Nigeria?

If a person under 18 years old cannot lawfully own a SIM in his name, pre-registered SIMs will continue to be bought and sold.

The message was sent to my MTN line. I'm tired of linking my NIN to the SIM card when it doesn't work. I can't make calls on the SIM but people can call me.

If they finally block the line, Gloryyyyy. Anybody wey wan reach me go use NIPOST. undecided
