The Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project, SERAP, has threatened to charge the President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration to court over the blocking of 72 million subscribers from making calls without due process of law.

Recall that Federal Government following the expiration of the National Identification Number (NIN) and Subscriber Identification Module (SIM) linkage order the telecommunication companies in the country to bar outgoing calls on SIMs cards that were not linked with NIN.

Following this, the telecom operators have begun to bar numbers, which has so far affect 72 million subscribers causing outrage among Nigerians.

But, SERAP on Friday in a tweet said it was ready to take legal action against the government for barring SIM cards without following the right procedure.

It tweeted: “BREAKING: NIN-SIM registration: We’re suing the Buhari administration over the blocking of 72 million subscribers from making calls without due process of law.”
