Nigerian Government Admits Difficulty Tracking Kidnappers’ SIM Cards Despite NIN Policy
The Federal Government has admitted that security agencies face serious technical challenges in tracking SIM cards used by kidnappers, despite mandatory NIN–SIM registration. Communications Minister Bosun Tijani revealed that criminal gangs now exploit poor network coverage and advanced call-routing technologies, especially in remote areas. To counter this, the government plans to deploy 4,000 new telecom towers, expand fibre-optic networks, and upgrade Nigeria’s communication satellites to close connectivity gaps aiding criminal operations.
