MTN has resumed the sales of new Subscriber Identification Module (SIM) Cards after all telecommunications were asked to stop the sales and activation of SIM Cards across the country sometimes in 2020 by the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC), profjaysblog reports.
In a statement made by the Director, Public Affairs, Ikechukwu Adinde on the 8th of December, 2020 its commision has ordered all telecommunications to halt the sale and activation of Subscriber Identification Module (SIM).
MTN Nigeria has announced its resumption in the sale of new SIM Cards in 24 states of the country as efforts are on top gear to resume sales from the rest of the states not currently listed.
A quick check on their website reads:
“We are delighted to inform you that SIM card sales have commenced in some select MTN stores. Simply walk into any of the stores listed below to buy and activate your SIM.”
“Thank you for choosing MTN”
“To make your experience at our store seamless and make the process faster, please be kind to come with the following:”
1. Your National Identity Number (NIN) is mandatory by law for registering and activating your new SIM.
2. In addition, please come along with any one of these valid, government issued IDs:
i. Your NIN slip
ii. Your Voter’s Card
iii. Your Driver’s License
iv. Your international passport.
SIM registration cannot be done by proxy.
So, with the above, i want to believe that Nigerians across the country will have some signs of relieve as they would be able to either buy a new SIM cards or reactivate their stolen, lost, damaged sims due to the lifting of ban on sim registrations.
profjaysblog gathered that other telecommunications will soon start selling of sim cards also.
congratulations to all subscribers as you can now buy and register your new cards across the approved states.
