Nigerian Communications Commission NCC says there are no plans to Mass Disconnect Telephone Subscribers as a result of the ongoing linkage of SIM registration records with the National Identity Number NIN.
In a statement released on wednesday by the Director public Affairs Ikechukwu Adinde,the commission says there is need to correct erroneous assumption that for every network or Sim connection,there is one unique human subscriber as a recent survey indicate that on the average there are approximately 4 to 5 Sims to every human subscriber which explains the basis for allowing the linkage of up to seven Sims to one unique NIN in the recently launched portal.
The Commission also noted that the current exercise will be subjected to reviews to ensure its smooth implementation.
