-
  About 29 million telecom users are yet to link their National Identity Numbers to their SIM cards even as the first deadline given to subscribers expires Tuesday. A top federal government official told  Daily Trust  on Monday that about 176m SIM cards had been linked to their owners’ NINs.

The attention of the Wahab Issa Campaign Organisation (WICO) has been drawn to a certain report by a self-confessed failed lawmaker whose speciality appears to be muckraking and has also been adjudged by his constituents as having wasted their precious time as a legislator in Abuja with nothing to show for it except for the sponsors of premature bills that have not seen the light of the day for almost four years on the floor of the House of Representatives.  In another puerile move, the candidate of the Social Democratic Party (SDP) Hon.
