Some 5 years ago, I advocated for sim card registration with bio data, I didn't stop there, I also advocated for CCTV in several public places, where thefts of laptops from cars, and other valuables is very rampant
Of course some people might want to hood wink these noble efforts, with their privacy concerns. If you don't want to register for a sim card, you can use a public telephone, or call booth (token or whatever). You don't even have to use a phone, you can send a letter thru Post Office. The days of hoodlums using mobile phones, to cheat innocent Ugandans are numbered My only concern is if these big projects (seeming simple to implement), will not become white elephants The terrorists who killed innocent World Cup revellers, disposed their sim cards, while coordinating their devious acts. Sim card registration will ensure these rascals, don't go unpunished. You can live in Utopia, and claim to be a libertarian, but honestly, the reality is Big Brother is here to stay,
