Telecommunication companies are set to disconnect additional Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) numbers not linked to National Identification Numbers (NIN) on Friday, March 29, 2024, according to the Nigeria Communications Commission (NCC).
Reuben Mouka, the Director of Public Publicity at the NCC, confirmed to The PUNCH via telephone that there would be no extension to the deadline for the upcoming phase of disconnection. The NCC’s disconnection directive is being implemented in phases, with the second phase scheduled for March 29, 2024, proceeding as previously announced. The initial phase occurred on February 28, 2024, and the third phase is scheduled to commence on April 15, 2024.
Mouka emphasized, “We issued a publication outlining specific deadlines and stated that subscribers failing to comply with the directive would be barred, and that stance remains unchanged.” He noted that during the previous deadline on February 28, 2024, approximately 40 million lines not linked to NIN were disconnected, with MTN Nigeria.
