@betadays no such thing is happening at least not in anambra state starting today all sims will be activated only if they are registered!!!theres been no issuance of sims since monday as there is no stock,been doing registration since then.even when registered new lines can still not be activated untill data is transfered to the main system at the office from the registration machines maybe within 24hrs.with this new directive retail of sim is impossible to activate without registration no sim to sell, no target to meet, no weekly appriasal, besides our I.Ds are reading MAY 2011.lets just cross our fingers and hope to be absorbed earlier than may.peace...
