The Minister for Communication, Digital Technology and Innovation, Samuel Nartey George, has issued a warning about SIM card registration.
He cautioned citizens against registering SIM cards for other individuals.
Minister George explained that if a SIM card linked to a Ghana Card is used for mobile money fraud, it will be flagged. The SIM card will then be blocked.
This measure is intended to deter fraudulent activities using mobile money services.
The Ghana Card is a unique identification number for all Ghanaians.
Registering a SIM card requires linking it to the Ghana Card.
This new directive aims to enhance security and accountability in mobile money transactions.
The public is advised to be cautious about who they allow to use their Ghana Card for SIM registration.
