The motion was moved today at the plenary seating of the house.

Recall that in 2016, the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) warned telecoms operators against the sales of pre-registered SIM cards, as the Commission asked subscribers and other members of the public to alert the Commission or security agencies, whenever such infractions are noticed.
