How to Link NIN to Glo Number
The Federal Government, on Monday, ordered telecommunications companies to bar outgoing calls on mobile lines not linked with the National Identification Number (NIN).
This was after subscribers were advised to register their SIM cards with NIN or face the blocking or disconnection of their lines by the end of December 31, 2020.
However, some Nigerians who possess NIN are still unsure of how to go about linking their phone numbers to their NIN.
