Kenyans in Last Minute Rush to Update SIM Registration Ahead of Midnight Shutdown

Nairobi — Kenyans have thronged mobile service provider shops in Nairobi in a last minute bid to get their sim card registration details updated hours to the October 15 deadline.

A number of Kenyans who spoke to Capital News complained of technical challenges with the online registration process forcing them to avail themselves physically at the shops.
