The Nigerian Communications Commission
on Friday said unregistered subscribers would be cut off from
telecommunications networks across the country.
Director of Public Affairs at NCC, Mr.
Tony Ojobo, who confirmed this in a number of tweets on Friday, said
this followed a meeting between the regulatory agency and
telecommunications operators.
According to him, the deadline offers a
window of opportunity to subscribers who have not registered their SIM
cards to do so or be cut off at the expiration of the deadline.
He added that the total number of registered subscribers would be known after the cut off date.
Ojobo said, “The Nigerian Communications Commission has set a deadline for disconnection of all unregistered SIM cards.
“From the 30th of June 2013, all unregistered SIM cards will be barred from the telecom services.
“This decision was taken after a meeting between the commission and the service providers.
“There is now a window of opportunity
for those who have not to do so. Otherwise from that 30th of June they
will be barred and can’t use the numbers anymore to make calls.
“The total number of registered SIMs will be known after the cut off date.”
