NBC wants AIT to be like NTA – Oby Ezekwesili hilarously summarizes AIT’s ban

The former Minister of Education and presidential candidate of ACPN, Oby Ezekwesili, has given a hilarious reaction to the suspension slammed on DAAR Communication by the National Broadcasting Cooperation (NBC).

NBC yesterday June 6th, suspended the license of DAAR communications, owners of AIT and Raypower, on grounds that the media house failed to abide by the ethics of broadcasting as well as do not pay up their fees as at when due.

This suspension, however, has been lifted by Court on Friday. But before the suspension was lifted, Oby Ezekwesili had on her Twitter handle said this:

“My Summary of this lengthy Sanctions letter from NBC to AIT is simply this: ‘We have warned you several times in the past to stop broadcasting things that upset the Government and NBC. You refused to listen. Now we shall shut you up and down until you are ready to be like NTA’.

“There is nothing in that letter from NBC to AIT that reaches the threshold for withdrawal of license and shut down of a Media house that we all know Government perceives as an ‘Opposition media’. Wisdom should have actually instructed the FG against striking out at them,” she wrote
