All SIM Cards that have been linked to Ghana Card (ie completed Stage 1 registration), but have not completed their Stage 2 registration will be blocked from the end of October, says the Minister of Communication, Ursula Owusu-Ekuful.
She says this is not an extension of the deadline but a temporary moratorium to encourage these individuals to complete the process.
"If they have any peculiar challenges, they should contact the NCA. These good people have the Ghana card, have started the process and will be encouraged to complete it with this gentle reminder. All other unregistered SIMs will also be blocked progressively," she said in a statement.
At the end of July 2022, a two-month extension of the deadline for registration to 30th September 2022 was announced.
The NCA is also in discussions with the NIA on registered amputees and other categories of persons and will make an announcement shortly on arrangements made to accommodate them.
Also, all data-only SIMs including those issued by Surfline, Busy Internet, Telsol, and any institutions such as ECG, have up to the end of November to complete registration.
Ursula Owusu-Ekuful concluded that the government id fully committed to ensuring that we have a safe digital ecosystem underpinning our collective cybersecurity.
