The Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) has directed telecommunications companies to pulse the activation and sales of Subscriber Identification Module (SIM) to ensure full compliance with quality standards and requirements.

This development was revealed in a statement today Wednesday by the Director, Public Affairs, Ikechukwu Adinde noting the directive will be effective until the audit of the Subscriber Registration Database is fully completed.

Ikechukwu made it known that the Minister of Communications and Digital Economy, Isa Pantami gave out the instruction to the commission.

Although, a waiver might be granted if the Federal government permits, non-compliance by network operators could lead to the withdrawal of operating licenses.
