THE Consumer Affairs Manager of the National Media Commission, (NMC), Mr Abed Bandim, has stressed that the ongoing Subscriber Identification Module (SIM) card registration exercise is not meant for taxation.
Mr Bandim made the call during an interaction with personnel of the Information Services Department and the media in Upper East Region.
The NCA has teamed up with the ISD to embark on a public education exercise on the SIM card registration process.
The exercise which will end on June 11, 2011, seeks to raise public awareness about the benefits of the SIM registration.
Mr Bandim reminded the public that the exercise was free and warned registration officers not to demand any money for the registration process.
He warned that those who failed to take advantage of the window would have their SIM cards blocked.
The Director of NCA in charge of Special Projects, Major Owusu Adansi, called on network operators to expand the registration centres to enable subscribers who lived far away to reach communities to register SIM cards with ease.
