Radio Biafra is operating illegally without licence and security forces are on the trail of those behind it, the National Broadcasting Commission (NBC) has said.
NBC in a statement at the weekend said Radio Biafra is a pirate radio station which is transmitting seditious and divisive content contrary to the provisions of the Nigeria Broadcasting Code and the law.
“The commission wishes to assure the public that it is working in conjunction with the security forces to track the source of the broadcasts and possibly apprehend all those behind the station,” NBC said in the statement by its director of public affairs Malam Awwalu Salihu.
The commission urged Nigerians to ignore the inflammatory content of the broadcasts and continue to work towards a strong, united and prosperous nation.
