Mrs. Ursula Owusu-Ekuful, the minister of communications and digitalization, is scheduled to address Parliament today, June 8, to discuss the SIM card re-registration process in more detail.

Majority Leader Osei Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu presented the Business Statement for the week and noted that given the increased agitation from impacted customers, it is necessary for the Minister to update the House on the entire process.

The National Communications Authority (NCA) issued a directive on May 31, 2023, which resulted in all active and unregistered SIM cards being disabled and removed.

Mrs, Ursula Owusu-Ekuful, the minister of communications, declared that all mobile SIM cards will begin to be reregistered on October 1, 2021.

The exercise was supposed to run six months, but it was repeatedly extended due to real difficulties SIM card customers were having.

On February 14, 2023, the government announced that as of February 9, 2023, a total of 25 million, 150 thousand, 522 SIM cards had been successfully registered. They also urged the people to adhere to the registration deadlines.
