Extend Sim Card re-registration to the end of the year and stop the pressure -NIA to government
An appeal has been made to the government by the Director of Administration of the National Identification Authority Cecilia Erzuah to extend the deadline for the sim registration exercise to the end of the year.
Whiles briefing the Minority members of the Communication Committee of Parliament on Tuesday 22nd February 2022 at the NIA headquarters in Accra, she complained to the Minority legislators who were on a fact-finding mission preparation for the appearance of the Chief Executive Officer of the NIA in Parliament on Wednesday. She said that “a lot of people haven’t received their cards, there are people who did double, triple registration and the system has arrested their cards.
“All these cards have to be released otherwise all these people will lose their SIM.”
She added that “I think they should extend to the end of the year. What is the rush for?
“They should extend to the end of the year so that people can register for their cards. They are putting unnecessary pressure on Ghanaians.”
