The NBC also revoked the broadcast licenses of some state owned broadcast Organizations.
The Network gathered that the NBC decided to withdraw the licenses of the affected broadcast organizations for failing to renew their licenses.
As result, the Director General of the NBC, Balarabe Shehu, has directed State offices of the NBC to liaise with the security agencies to ensure immediate shut down of the operations of the affected broadcast houses with 24 hours of the announcement.
Meanwhile, the Broadcasting Organisation of Nigeria has promised to engage the NBC with a view to resolving the issue.
