FG Approves Review of Broadcasting Code, Proposes N5m Fine for Hate Speech

Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, Thursday said the federal government has approved recommendations to review the National Broadcasting Code and extant broadcasting laws.

In the same light, government also warned that wilful repeat of infractions on three occasions after imposing the fine on a station would lead to the suspension of the station’s licence. Others are the amendment of the NBC Act to enable NBC license WebTv and radio stations, including foreign broadcasters beaming signals into the country and the recruitment of more monitoring staff for the NBC, which presently has only about 200 staff monitoring about 1,000 radio and television stations and deployment of adequate monitoring equipment and technologies for the NBC.
