Stakeholders in the telecommunication industry have asked the Federal Government to further extend the timeline of blocking people’s Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) cards.
Several subscribers seeking to link their National Identification Numbers (NINs) with their phone numbers have been asked by the National Identity Management Commission (NIMC) come back on March 22.
Recall that the deadline given by the Federal Government for them to sychronise their lines will expire on February 9.
At the NIMC Office entrance, prospective enrollees were requested to register their names which were subsequently transferred to a notebook. They were asked to come on March 22 for data capturing.
All efforts to get the reaction of NIMC were futile.
