Nigerians who have been not able to recover their lines after it was taken, harmed or lost currently have an alternative.
This comes after the national government delivered new rules for the substitution of SIM cards that are harmed, taken or lost.
The Minister of Communications and Digital Economic, Dr Isa Ibrahim Pantami endorsed the new rules following the suggestion of a Ministerial Task Force on issues identifying with the telecom business and National Identity Numbers.
An assertion marked mutually by the representatives of the Nigerian Communications Commission, NCC, and the National Identity Management Commission, NIMC, Dr Ikechukwu Adinde and Mr Kayode Adegoke separately, noticed that the new rules are to make measures simpler for Nigerians.
The assertion noticed that the drive to guarantee all Subscriber enrollments are connected with National Identification Numbers (NINs) was pushing ahead, while all partners in the business are cooperating to guarantee the cycle is completed as consistently as could reasonably be expected.
The Government might want to take advantage of this lucky break to genuinely acknowledge Nigerians for the arrangement and responsibility exhibited towards guaranteeing the general achievement of this activity, it added.
The assertion further said "the Technical Committee accused of the operationalization of the cycle to guarantee an assisted linkage of all SIM Registration Records with NIN" has suggested new rules for harmed, taken or lost SIM cards.
The assertion peruses: "In view of proposals of the Technical Committee, the Honorable Minister of Communications and Digital Economy has affirmed a SIM Replacement Policy for endorsers whose SIMs have been lost, taken, lost or harmed subject to the accompanying conditions:
I) That the supporter present a NIN;
ii) That a powerful check of the NIN is done by NIMC; and
iii) That the significant Guidelines and Regulations of NCC concerning SIM Replacement are completely clung to.
"This strategy is important for the Federal Government's endeavors to lessen the weight on supporters and disentangle the activity.
"It is pointed toward empowering broadcast communications administration clients who need to supplant their harmed, taken or lost SIMs to restore admittance to telecom administrations."
