Long queues have been witnessed in a number of SIM card registration centres across the country as Kenyans rush to beat the April 15 deadline.

A spot check by The Standard in Nairobi today revealed long queues that snaked around centres run by some leading mobile operators as their subscribers sought to register their details afresh following a directive by the Communication Authority of Kenya (CA).
