Nca punitive measures for unregistered sim cards kick in september 5
It seems like you're referring to the recent announcement by the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) regarding punitive measures for unregistered SIM cards.
As of September 5, 2022, the NCC has announced that it will begin enforcing punitive measures against individuals and organizations found to be using unregistered SIM cards. This is part of the commission's efforts to curb the use of unregistered SIM cards, which can be used for illegal activities such as fraud, terrorism, and other criminal activities.
The punitive measures include:
- Suspension of SIM cards: The NCC will suspend SIM cards that are not registered with the National Identity Management Commission (NIMC).
- Fines: Individuals and organizations found to be using unregistered SIM cards will be fined.
- Legal action: The NCC may take legal action against individuals and organizations found to be using unregistered SIM cards.
It's important to note that the NCC has given a deadline of September 5, 2022, for all SIM card users to register their SIM cards with the NIMC. After this deadline, any SIM card found to be unregistered will be subject to the punitive measures mentioned above.
It's essential for SIM card users to take immediate action to register their SIM cards to avoid any penalties or legal action.
