Simple steps that subscribers can take to link their phone numbers with their National Identity Number (NIN)

Nigerian telecommunication service providers have announced simple steps that subscribers can take to link their phone numbers with their National Identity Number (NIN). It had been reported that the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) mandated telcos in the country to block all SIM cards that are not registered with NIN within 2 weeks. This means that failure of the subscribers to update their registration records with operators with NIN will lead to the blocking or disconnection of the line by December 31, 2020, though there has been a huge public outcry about the sudden announcement of the policy and short time frame to implement it. The Nigerian Identity Management Commission (NIMC) has also directed that subscribers can link their NIN to more than one sim card. This can be done by taking their NIN to the office of their service providers.

NNPC forecasts $1 trillion losses in global oil production by December

  NNPC forecasts $1 trillion losses in global oil production by December The Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) yesterday projected global losses from exploration and production activities due to slowing demand for crude oil amid the COVID-19 pandemic will hit about $1 trillion by the end of 2020 Group Managing Director of the corporation, Mallam Mele Kyari, at the Nigerian Association of Petroleum Explorationists (NAPE) 2020 Conference, also reiterated the plan of the NNPC to reduce production cost per barrel to $10 by 2021. The theme of the conference held in Lagos is: “Accelerating Growth in Nigeria’s Hydrocarbon Reserves: Emerging Concepts, Challenges and Opportunities.” He, however, stated that the only way to survive the challenging times is to cut or optimise production costs and increase revenue, noting that the NNPC has slashed its cost per unit to between 20 per cent and 30 per cent and will hit the projected target next year. Vice President, Prof. Yemi Osinba...

BBN: Charley Boy Backlashes Gov. Diri Over Nengi’s Political Appointment Whilst Snubbing A First Class Law Student (Photo)

  Charley Boy, a popular Nigerian Singer, has descended on the governor of Bayelsa State over his bias appointment of BBNaija Star Nengi. In a post he shared on his social media handle, he expressed his displeasure in the political appointment he made without proper checks and consideration. - Advertisement - He shared a photo of a young Lady who he disclosed has completed the school of Law with first class but wasn’t honored or given a post to empower the youth. He complained about the fact that he rather gave all special and honorable positions to a BBNaija Star who allegedly completed with a third class to be the face of Bayelsa State in girl child development. Recall that, a few weeks ago, Nengi and Triky Tee were appointed as the Special Senior Assistants to the governor of Bayelsa State. According to him, the decision of the governor’s action is considered an irony and a misplaced moral priority for him to choose a reality show runner-up as the model of the Bayelsa Girl Child...
