Lol. We knew the rationale behind the NIN registration naw. Over 5m Nigerien had been integrated into Nigeria through this means by Pantami. They used to say they don't want censors . Recently they've been shouting censors because of those already added to their number. The issue on ground now is on electronic voting system which they say they don't want and its because they've not found a means of gaming it yet. Imagine borno where boko haram holds sway record so much votes in 2015 and 2019 respectively. Fulanis are super riggers but this is ending soon. They say there would not be network in rural areas so , electronic voting could be approved but not transmission of results electronically. But the same people go to villages and make calls during sallah to friends and family around the world . They check their mails, even transfer funds using their apps and read news online without issues wile in villages...they make use of data too. Many of them had called or participated un channels tv live political programmes from their various villages via Skype and zoom without issues...but the same people said there would be no network in the rural areas. These people think they're wise. The end to functionalities of their rigging machine is near .

Who told you the number the bandits used to call you...was their real number?

Remember the recent kidnap case in Abuja where the kidnappers demanded payment in bitcoin? They traced the number...to a random hawker in one of the markets. When questioned, the guy said one random woman bought his sim. Of course...he could not describe the woman..and he had never met her before in his life...nor did he see her again.

For all we know, them bandits have lots of such numbers...stolen, registered by proxies, or bought...and use their real numbers for non-criminal activities.

A better alternative would be to track the bandits via triangulation off the nearest mobile antenna.

Also, let's be honest. Our police gets 2 billion dollars to police 200 million people. NYPD of the USA gets 10 billion dollars to police 25 million people. Nigeria needs to change the way we run our economy to earn enough to fund our law enforcement adequately.

There's no surprise in this news. In many of my previous posts on this issue, I have highlighted d folly in forcing people to link sim to NIN all in d name of security. This same govt forced people to do BVN claiming that it will end 419, kidnapping and fraud, but nothing to show. Then they came up with NiN. One thing is obvious, this govt has failed in it's responsibility to provide security and it keeps shifting d goal post instead of taking responsibility. Or there might just be an ulterior motive beyond d surface cos I don't see why a minister of communication will abandon his duties and be so obsessed with security as if he is d IGP

A business that government is doing everything possible to legalize..


To track them is as simple as ABC, but the people in government are getting their shares from it.. The problem now is that they don't know what dey are cooking.

The hawker sold his sim card to a woman who asked him to sell it to her...a woman he did not know at all. At no point did he know what the card would be used for, until the cops came knocking.

And we need a database of some sorts. That's why SIM-NIN linkage is important.

Infact, one reason why we need the linkage...people were buying pre-registered SIMS(essentially one guy can buy 50 sims, register them in his name, and then sell them on to individuals who don't want to wait in line for SIM registraiton)...which can make it dififcult to track kidnappers and bandits...who would buy such sims.
How can you sell your personal sim card To a total stranger?
I'm sure he sold it for a high price so he knew something will be up, I believe police isn't that dense to believe the hawker, That hawker is guilty as f

No point, because when bandits kidnaps you, they collect your phone also. All the communications are done with your sim.

This tracking can be done easily even with limited towers.

The thing is it's one thing to track and another thing to send the man power

We conduct round the clock operations for expatriate and have no jurisdiction within Nigeria.

Sometimes hearing these crisis day in and day breaks my heart because the problem can be taken care of.

The bandits are their friends. Just give the police the phone number of an Igbo man that slap a Fulani man for allowing his cow to destroy his farm. The igbo man will be tracked and arrested in less than 24 hours
