Will NCC Block The Lines Of Non Nigerians Without NIN? by Charmingrascal(m): 2:52pm On Jan 02, 2021
The Federal Government has threatened to deactivate every sim card that is not linked to NIN at a certain date and just last night my friend who is not a Nigerian asked me if his lines will also be deactivated since he won't be able to get the national ID card because he is not a citizen of this country.

I promised to confirm for him and that's why I created this thread.

Dear Nairalanders kindly help if you have any useful information about this.

Will his lines be deactivated or there is an exception for non Nigerians?

What I am saying is that there is no way non Nigerians can get Nigerian national ID and without that FG is threatening to block people's lines.
Does that mean that those who are not Nigerian citizens will get their lines blocked?

Read and comprehend!!

I don't even think they put that into consideration before giving such order.

FG is confused

There are foreigners that aren't registered on the database of nimc. They probably bought local SIM card for business transaction however they may find it difficult to link their line except there are provisions for that

I don't think government will block your number.

Government need to be smart, you can't just force everyone at ones to register their info, it doesn't make sense, there should be a policy of gradualism.

NATIONAL CITIZEN'S DATABASE is the major reason for this.
Which will really really curb all criminal activities in our nation amongst many other positives.

Frustrated007:
very stupid policy..
All in a bid to monitor the population.
In my opinion they are just wasting their time.
Nigeria hasn't advanced to the stage where the government can keep 24/7 tabs on everyone.
Everything in Nigeria can be faked
Fake bank account, fake sim, burner phones, fake identity.
What works in the west can never work here
And you want your country to be great and better?
And you want your country to be like countries abroad?

Well, no time for long talk.

Okeydokey...
I've been meaning to ask this question cos a Ghanaian woman was asking me yesterday what is their fate in this whole NIN and SIM registration brouhaha.

Please, let have your views, our in-house politicians.
Re: Will NCC Block The Lines Of Non Nigerians Without NIN? by Owodiran1(m): 5:52pm On Jan 02, 2021

Theirs should be verified by valid visa.

They should use it to catch all those stupid Chinese without visa hovering and acting boss around the country.

Those idiots in their country can't let u breathe a day without visa but most of them here for years without visa and even our shameless mopol will be doing escort for them

walahi Nigeria is a useless country but not totally useless atleast could be used as a very bad example to other African countries

All this issue of blocking sims CANNOT happen. Not with a third world like Nigeria that doesn’t even have an idea of what makeup their database.
Do they even know who and who makeup the foreigners space? All those niger, char and malians that have infiltrated the country, will they be counted as foreigners?
