The Nigerian Communications Commission has reiterated its directive to telecom operators to bar telephone subscribers not linked to their National Identification Numbers (NIN) on or before February 28, 2024.
The Executive Vice Chairman of the National Communication Commission, Dr Aminu Maida, spoke at the NCC’s Special Day during Wednesday's ongoing 45th Kaduna International Trade Fair.
Dr Aminu Maida, represented by Mr Reuben Mouka, NCC’s Director of Public Affairs, insisted that telecom consumers must link their NIN to their SIM as a critical national security matter.
He reaffirmed that the February 28th deadline given to telecom operators to bar subscribers who failed to link their NIN to SIM still stands.
