In an interview with the University's media outlet, the Manageress of the Hall, Mrs. Irene-Michelle Ofosu-Behome, urged staff and students to participate in the exercise to avoid having their SIM cards blocked by April 1, 2022. 

The Hall President, Mr. Samuel Osei, on his part, commended the General Secretary of the Hall, Ms. Rhoda Efua Ackom, for being able to secure an agreement with MTN. He expressed hope that she would endeavour to get other telecommunications networks on board. 

“Because the welfare of our fellow students is very fundamental to us, we started with the National Health Insurance registration. We realised that most of the students didn’t even have National Health Insurance cards when they visited medical facilities for attention. We are hoping to bring the National Identification Authority (NIA), Passport and maybe Vodafone and AirtelTigo on campus as well,” he indicated.  

Mr. Joseph Havi, MTN Mobile Money (MOMO) controller for Kasoa, Swedru, and Winneba, congratulated the Hall's Secretary on a job well done. He revealed that the week-long exercise was not only for the biometric SIM card re-registration but also for providing other essential services that subscribers might required.
