Channels Television has been fined N5 million by the National Broadcasting Commission (NBC) over an interview with Datti Baba-Ahmed, Labour Party Vice Presidential candidate.
In a March 27 letter addressed to Channel’s Chief Executive Officer and obtained on Friday in Abuja, NBC said the television station violated the broadcasting code.
Titled “Broadcast of an Inciting Interview, A Sanction”, the letter was signed by Balarabe Ilelah, the commission’s Director-General.
It read in part: “The NBC monitored the broadcast of a live interview of the running mate of the Labour Party Vice presidential candidate, Dr. Datti Baba-Ahmed, by the anchor of Politics Today, Seun Okibaloye, on Wednesday, March 22.
“Dr. Baba-Ahmed said it will be unconstitutional to swear in an elected president on May 29, 2023, because of election irregularities,” Mr. Ilelah said in the letter.
