Nigerian Senator Shehu Sani has criticized the National Commission Commission (NCC) and telecommunication companies in Nigeria for their perceived inefficiency in blocking phone numbers used by bandits and criminals.
The senator, who is known for his candidness on national issues, expressed his concerns on social media regarding the priority given to blocking SIM cards over those used by criminal elements.
In a tweet, Senator Shehu Sani highlighted a perplexing situation where telecom operators and the NCC quickly block SIM cards of ordinary citizens, but delay in blocking the numbers used by bandits for ransom collection and criminal activities.
“The NCC and the Telecom operators know how to quickly block SIM cards; the ones they are yet to know how to quickly block are those ones used by Bandits to collect ransom,” Senator Shehu Sani wrote.
