Did you backup your contacts? You could restore your contacts and send them sms broadcast informing dem of what has happened and the alternate/temporal line they can contact you with while trying to recover your stolen line.

Which network are you using?

Go to their nearest office or agent in your location and request for a sim replacement.

Since you have access to another phone, call your network customer care and instruct them to block the line, that's if welcome back will take longer than expected.

Why I advice doing that is so your number wouldn't be used for any fraudulent act.

If it's linked to your Bank, also contact your bank as soon as possible. If possible, deactivate all your cards.

Your lost your phone, and that means your information is compromised.

If you can logout your Google account from every accounts and phone, do that now and change your passwords.

Boys are not smiling.

Play your part, and everything will be fine.

As for your clients, I believe you have a way of contacting them.

Update them of your new number. Make an update on Facebook, Instagram or your website if you have one

Make a post about it, and update your contact page too.

For now, Nigeria is unstable and I'm not sure when you can successfully do a sim welcome back.

Good luck.

You can visit any network company and do your welcome back as they have resume after federal government gave them the go ahead. Don't forget to go with your NIN I.d card.
