This week, Ursula Owusu-Ekuful, Minister of Communication and Digitalization, is scheduled to brief Parliament on the recently concluded SIM re-registration exercise and the deactivation of unregistered SIM Cards.

Majority Leader Osei Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu stated the decision was required owing to the increased agitation from impacted subscribers when presenting the business statement for the week.

Therefore, it was requested that the Minister come before the MPs on Thursday.

Numerous telecommunications service centers are crowded with mobile network users who have had their Subscriber Identification Module (SIM) cards deleted and need their lines to be reinstated.

After the re-registration deadline passed, the National Communications Authority (NCA) deactivated the SIMs.

About 11 million active SIM cards still needed to be reregistered with the Ghana Card as on Wednesday, May 30.
