Ahead of a formal communication from the government on its final stand on the deadline for the re-registration of all mobile SIM cards in Ghana, an Independent Presidential Aspirant for the 2024 general elections, Kofi Koranteng has dared the Minister for Communications and Digitalization, Ursula Owusu-Ekuful to go ahead and terminate any SIM number as she has threatened.

 

It has been advertised that the Minister will address the media on the afternoon of Sunday, July 31, 2022, the day set aside as the final deadline for all Ghanaians to re-register their SIM Cards by linking it to their Ghana Cards. In view of the fact that most Ghanaians are yet to access their Ghana Cards from the National Identification Authority (NIA) concerns have been raised widely for the Minister to reconsider the deadline.

The Statistics has it that out of the 41.6 million mobile number subscribers in the country, only 14 million have so far completed their SIM Re-registration as of Saturday July 30, 2022. The Minister has emphatically stated that “The deadline won’t be extended”.

In an interview with ghananewsonline.com.gh, Kofi Koranteng wondered what the sense in the deadline is. He urged the Minister to immediately heed to the call of majority of Ghanaians and cancel the deadline for the SIM Card re-registration especially since most Ghanaians have not been able to access their Ghana cards yet, let alone linking it to their SIM Card.

“It seems as if we voted for these bunch of position holders to come to power, live on the hog and inconvenience us instead of serving our needs, and I dare Ursula Owusu to suspend the re-registration of the SIM Cards because it is just unthinkable to create such inconvenience in our lives and put a deadline to it.

According to him, “nothing the NPP does seems like they are working to make our lives better. It seems as if our interest is not of interest to them. Everything they do is just to inconvenience the Ghanaian and we want to ask why? Why did they even bother to come to power if they did not come to serve us? They promised they were going to serve us, that is why we gave them the chance to come, and now it seems as if they are the biggest liability in terms of thought, in terms of what they do, everything. It’s been a huge disservice and a liability to the Ghanaian to have the NPP as a leadership group in Ghana and we shall forever regret that,” he stated.

He said the whole idea of SIM Card re-registration should never have happened anyway because it is a huge security threat to our credit file. He emphasized that registering and giving our biometric details to a foreign company that can decide in a minute that they are leaving Ghana to set up elsewhere, could undermine the citizens’ future risk management.

“I wonder what compliant and regulatory parameters the NCA has set up for these telcos to make sure that our information is protected, that in the event of a hack, our information is destroyed and they can’t retrieve the information, they have to be able to communicate preparedness to the NCA as to how they are protecting our information on their systems, and the NCA has to have constant or regular checks with these telcos to make sure that the Ghanaian citizens’ data is protected and encrypted at the highest level of security to make sure that nobody can get access to our information, if that is ever possible,” he noted.

He called on Ghanaians to rise and protest the irresponsible attitude of the government because as citizens of a respectable nation as Ghana, they deserve far more than they are getting from their government.

The police in Lagos have recorded a breakthrough by arresting eight members of a vicious gang of criminals that specialize in subjecting their victims to several hours of anal sex after dispossessing them of their properties and cash.

The arrest, said to be one of the biggest successes of detectives recently, under the watchful eyes of Commissioner of Police, Adegoke Fayoade so far, was made in the highbrow areas of Lekki, Ajah and Ikoyi areas of the state and efforts are in top gear to round up fleeing members of the dreaded gang made up of young men between the ages of 23 and 40.

Giving details of the operational strategies of the gang, police sources said the young men usually perpetrate their evil acts by renting living apartments in the highbrow areas of the city after which they embark on search for their victims.

It was learned that they normally place notices in strategic areas of the city, advertising job vacancies and acting as estate agents.

Sources said desperate job and accommodation seekers who respond to their adverts would be taken to their apartments usually situated in one of the booming estates where they are subjected to all kinds of torture with a view to forcing them release their account details after which they would be forced into several hours of anal sex by members of the gang.

According to sources, their operational method is to roam around with exotic cars including high flying SUV’s. They place fake advertisements in strategic areas of Lekki, Ajah, Banana Island and even Ikoyi after which they also scout around, looking for fine and healthy-looking men.

As soon as they succeed in getting a victim, they drive the person to their apartment where they torture him for hours. While torturing their victim, they would extract all information about him including his financial status.

“As soon as they are in possession of those personal facts, they swing into action by proceeding to his house or banks to empty his money and other valuables. The second round of their operation is to subject their victim to hours of anal sex which they take turns to have their fill. They usually record their exploits on video and later relax to view it while enjoying their loot.”

It was gathered that their criminal exploits were blown open after they succeeded in cornering and maltreating a relation of a mobile police officer. The enraged officer was said to have gone to one of the police stations at Lekki to lodge the report.

Based on this development, the Commissioner of Police, Adegoke Fayoade gave marching orders to his special squad to round up the criminals without delay.

The Special Squad, it was learned, succeeded in penetrating the gang and rounded up seven of their members including their oldest member said to be a lawyer.

Crime Guard learned that during interrogations, members of the gang who were looking unruffled stated boldly that their victims were healthy looking young and old men that will satisfy their sexual urge through the anus.

“They reportedly shocked detectives when they confessed that they had been operating for over three years and that they choose highbrow areas where they could easily track well nourished and endowed men.

Police sources said: “They were boasting to us about how many healthy looking men they have abused through the anus. They said they reject men that are not looking health, stating emphatically that they have no business with women. After their arrest, we confined them in separate cells so that they would not descend on our male suspects inside the cell.

“However, few days later, one of them raised alarm that the oldest member of the gang who claimed to be a lawyer was having same affair with a member of the gang. When we accosted him, he said the relationship had been going on since they have been operating as a gang.

“Our greatest problem now is that some members of the devilish gang have escaped and we strongly suspect that they must be carrying on with their devilish criminal acts wherever they are.

“We are spreading our dragnets and we are sure that very soon, we will round all of them up. I must state that if not for the swiftness with which our Commissioner directed the operation, many men in Lagos state would have been endangered species by now.”
