Have you wondered why, up to date, nobody is on record to have been handed someone’s NIA card by mistake?

Any card given to you will first have to be verified that it is you indeed whose biometrics have been captured on the card being collected.

Using the same principle, no one should have been able to register a SIM card using NIA card that does not belong to him/her. As to what the NCA and the Ministry of Communication were thinking, I really don’t understand.

Mobile money fraud is still increasing after the so called SIM re – registration because the fraudsters have bypassed the system using basic fraud tactics that every proper risk consultant should have anticipated and then design a system to respond to those kind of risks.

SIM card should have been registered only after confirming a match on card verification with the fingerprints of the person purporting to own the SIM card and the NIA card, enabled electronically without human intervention.

This could have been done by linking the Telcos system directly to the NIA system, which the govt is not interested in. No one should have been able to use stolen card or photocopies of the NIA card to register SIM in Ghana.

This is a classic incompetence on the part of the regulator.

Per page 20 of the Agyapadee document drafted by the Kyebi mafias which they are using to govern Ghana today, since 2020, Kelni GvG was insected into the telecos platforms to monitor mobile phones calls and other social media platforms in the country, and we are all mute as if nothing is happening.
