The National Broadcasting Commission (NBC) has lamented that barely 24 hours after restoring the radio and television licences of Daar Communications Plc, Africa Independent Television and Raypower 100.5FM have resumed breaching of the broadcasting code.
The NBC stated this in a statement on Saturday.
The statement reads in part, “The National Broadcasting Commission wishes to take note of the ex parte order granted by the Federal High Court Abuja division on June 7, 2019 to Daar Communications Plc.
“The ex parte order was sequel upon a motion ex parte dated May 30, 2019 and filed on May 3, 2019, by Daar Communications Plc.
“This was before the directive from the NBC suspending the broadcasting licence of Daar Communications Plc on June 6, 2019.
“The commission also notes the continued breach of the Nigeria Broadcasting Code by Daar Communications Plc.”
