The National Broadcasting Commission (NBC) has directed 52 broadcast stations, including the African Independent Television, Silverbird Television and the broadcasting corporations run by various state governments to shut down their operations.
The commission said the directive became imperative following debts incurred by the broadcasting organisations amounting to at least N2.6bn.
The Director-General of the NBC, Balarabe Ilelah, disclosed this to journalists at the commission’s headquarters in Abuja.
He said all the television and radio stations affected must halt operations in the next 24 hours.
