The Minister for Communication and Digitisation, Ursula Owusu-Ekuful, has warned that all sim cards that are not re-registered by December will be blocked.
In a Facebook post, Mrs Owusu-Ekuful said the decision to re-register sim cards is part of measures to clamp down on cyber criminals hiding behind the anonymity of digital systems to commit antisocial acts.
She added that plans are far advanced to make the National Identification card (Ghana Card) the only national identity card for all identification and business purposes in the country.
“It has become imperative that we clamp down on cybercriminals hiding behind the anonymity of digital systems to commit antisocial acts, and the Sim re-registration exercise is a key part of that campaign.
