The Federal Government has said it had succeeded in jamming
the transmission signals of Radio Biafra, which had been operating illegally
from an unknown location.
Dr Yemi Folasade-Esan, the Permanent Secretary in the
Federal Ministry of Information, stated this while speaking with State House
correspondents after she had briefed President Muhammadu Buhari on the
activities of the ministry.
Folasade-Esan said that Buhari was adequately briefed on the
activities of the illegal radio station and the successful blocking of its
transmission signals.
“We also gave a report on (Radio Biafra) that because right
now the signals from Radio Biafra have been jammed. The National Broadcasting
Commission (NBC) has successfully jammed that. The NBC is also working with
security operatives to get those that are behind that radio because it is an
illegal radio. It is not licensed by anybody to be on Nigeria’s airwaves,“ Mrs
Fayemi said.
