According to the Minister of Communications, Mrs Ursula Owusu-Ekuful, the re-registration of SIM cards is to monitor and track down persons who use their phones for criminal activities.
This is to end the rising cybercrime issues in the country.
With the first stage of the registration process, you will have to link the SIM card to the Ghana Card via USSD (*404#).
For stage 2, you visit your service provider (agent or customer care) to complete this stage of the registration.
People who fail to re-register their SIM cards will have them blocked, the communication minister noted.
