ABSTRACT
The continues increase in the number of mobile phone users and the terrifying increase in the rate of criminal usage of the device, demands for a strict monitoring of the user behavior in order to checkmate the security status in most developing countries. In order to achieve these goals, the registration of this device becomes imperative. This paper focuses on the mobile phone registration for especially the developing economy by studying the gains, challenges and constraints of this scheme. It was concluded that the proper registration which involves SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card and mobile phone IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity) number registration, will aid the developing economy especially in addressing issues such as impersonation, kidnapping and other criminal activities

CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
1.0 Introduction
This chapter tends to introduce the necessary details concerning this research projects, it is categorized in the following other; the theoretical background the statement of the problem, aims and objective of the study, significance of the study, scope of the study, organization of the research and finally the definition of terms. This will bring clarity to the readers and users of the system as it regards “Mobile phone registration system”.
1.1 Theoretical Background Effective mobile phone registration and allocation of telephone numbers to various individual has been a major source of challenge to most telecommunication companies in the country. Mobile phone registration system is a computerized system that facilitates the registration of mobiles phone after purchases by individual. The system tend to replace the old fashioned, paper-based methods tends to be both cumbersome and inefficient Mckay, John 92014). They can also be deployed as client/ server configurations if need be. Today, most next generation property mobile phone registration system favours web and cloud technology and offer their software to clients using a software as a service model.
