New SIM Re-Registration to Strengthen Subscriber Verification in Ghana

The National Communications Authority (NCA) has announced a fresh nationwide SIM re-registration exercise aimed at addressing irregularities from previous registration processes and improving the integrity of subscriber data.

Edmund Yirenkyi Fianko explained that this will be Ghana’s third official SIM registration exercise. The initiative seeks to ensure that all mobile subscribers are properly identified and verified using credible national identification systems, correcting weaknesses observed in earlier exercises, including the use of fake IDs or mismatched personal information.

The NCA emphasizes that the new process will establish a reliable verification system to strengthen regulatory oversight and enhance the accuracy of subscriber information, ultimately supporting a more secure and transparent telecommunications sector in Ghana.
