In the wake of this development, a woman believed to be in her late thirties has expressed her displeasure, specifically targeting her frustration at the Minister of Communications, Ursula Owusu-Ekuful. The woman, a single parent, appeared on UTV on June 2, 2023, to voice her concerns after her SIM card and that of her child were deactivated.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
During the interview, she revealed that her mobile money wallet was linked to her SIM card, hence her funds had been locked up with the deactivation.<\/p>\n
She argued that her child had registered for the Ghana Card, which is the only required document for the re-registration exercise three years ago but had not got the card yet.<\/p>\n
She demanded the authorities to allow her to withdraw her money so that the authorities can keep the SIM for whatever purpose they need it.<\/p>\n
\u201cThey have blocked my Vodafone SIM card yesterday. I came here this morning around six o\u2019clock when I came, they said \u2018network,\u2019 so I went inside. And when I went inside, they said Ursula Owusu has said that they have made an announcement that anyone who hasn\u2019t brought his\/her Ghana Card for re-registration of his\/her SIM card should be blocked\u2026 but my child has registered for the Ghana Card, and it has been three years he hasn\u2019t got it.<\/p>\n
