NBC Descends On Nigerian Broadcast Media, Revokes Licence

OpenLife Nigeria reports that the National Broadcasting Commission (NBC) has revoked the licences of AIT, Silverbird TV, Raypower FM, and Rhythm FM amongst others.

The licences of the broadcast media organisations, it was learnt, were revoked over failure to meet up with the renewal requirements.

Director General of the NBC Mallam Balarabe Shehu has directed its state offices to liaise with security agencies to ensure the shut down of the operation of the stations is enforced within the next 24 hours.

Meanwhile, a call to High Chief Raymond Dokpesi, founder of DAAR Communication, operators of AIT and Ray Power FM to ascertain his response was not answered.

However, Insiders allege that the revoke of the licenses of the two broadcast media might have some political undertones.
