The Muhammadu Buhari-led Nigerian government in its characteristic media clampdown has slammed N5million fine on Channels Television over an interview with Datti Baba-Ahmed, Labour Party Vice Presidential candidate. In a March 27 letter addressed to Channels Chief Executive Officer and obtained on Friday in Abuja, the NBC said the television station violated broadcasting code. Titled “Broadcast of an Inciting Interview, A Sanction”, the letter was signed by Balarabe Ilelah, the commission’s Director-General.
