Former Member of Parliament(MP) for Kumbungu Ras Mubarak has called on the Communications Minister to rather focus energy on making the internet better in Ghana.
He is of the view that Internet services in Ghana is poor and will be better if energy is focused on making it good for the people of Ghana rather than blocking their sim cards.
Ras Mubarak made this known on the back of citizens expecting their sim cards to be blocked today by the National Communications Authority (NCA) since the deadline for registration is today September 30.
“Communications Minister Ursula Owusu should be focusing on making internet better and cheaper and not threatening to block people’s SIM cards. Internet in Ghana is crap and expensive. Ghanaians deserve better,” he said in a post shared on social media.
After hearing complaints from a number of Ghanaians that they had missed the deadline to register their sim cards, Communications Minister Ursula Owusu stated at a press conference that she had regrettably extended the deadline till September 30.
There are still many Ghanaians who haven’t registered their sim cards because they can’t find or have lost their Ghana Card.
