  • OKOH AIHE: Broadcast flakes in a season of optimism

    OKOH AIHE: Broadcast flakes in a season of optimism

    By Okoh Aihe

    Broadcasting has enjoyed some enormous coverage lately. Can you imagine that tweak or little speck of irony!

    The broadcast media itself enjoying the limelight in what may qualify as inversion of service delivery. From nowhere, a state governor generated a needless controversy by reclining on his imperial powers to order the closure of one of the radio stations in his state. Yes, Governor Mohammed Bago ordered the closure of Badeggi Radio 90.1FM, based in Minna, the state capital.

    The governor was genuinely indignant. The station was implicated by its radical posturing in accepting materials from opposition voices to balance its daily news presentations instead of doing only the bidding of the governor. That was akin to creating chaos in the state and stirring the anger of the governor who should be allowed to enjoy a coolness that can help him focus on other state matters. There was outrage.

    Professional bodies and Human Rights Organisations feel traduced by the insolence of an elected governor. The Federal Government took a very firm position on who the regulator is: the National Broadcasting Commission (NBC), and not the governor!In a situation of chaos, facts enjoy ignoble ratings. An industry source told me that for daring to air news from other political parties outside of the ruling party, the station has since been labelled an opposition radio station, an unfortunate pigmentation that has stuck closer than leprosy.

    A source at the regulatory agency told this writer that the station was never truly shut but only suffered threats. Unfortunately, from the highest quarters of the state. What is the state of Badeggi FM? Is it on air? I have no reason not to believe the regulator.

    As it would turn out, what is happening in Niger State was a little prelude or a warped foretaste to what would unfold at the national level. The broadcast landscape quaked even more. The development has nothing to do with regulation but appointments. And ladies and gentlemen, appointments can be very important especially when they are political.

    The government, August 20, 2025, announced a new management team for the Nigerian Television Authority (NTA). The statement signed by Segun Imohiosen, Director of Information and Public Relations, Office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, had Rotimi Pedro (Lagos State, South-West) as Director-General, Karimah Bello (Katsina State, representing the North-West) as Executive Director, Marketing, Stella Din-Jacob (Plateau, North Central), Executive Director, News, while Sophia Mohammed (Adamawa State) would take charge of NTA Enterprises Limited as Managing Director.

    The announcement effectively invalidated the tenure of Salihu Abdullahi Dembos and Ayo Adewuyi who were appointed Director-General and Executive Director, in October 2023, and September 2024, respectively.

    There is comedy, and there is also theatre of the absurd or if you prefer, drama of the absurd, when some kind of theatrics can happen somewhere in a drama presentation or for even an entire presentation, to put a lie to common sense or reason.

    Someone once called it “beyond belief.” In the Nigerian situation however, it is reality.A management team just changed mid flight? That very evening, a source in the broadcast industry told me that the Minister of Information and National Orientation, Mohammed Idris, who is usually very cool and had managed the information sector well for this government, perhaps cooler than Luka Modric when managing mid-field crisis for Real Madrid, was livid with anger, feeling very disdained and contemptuously overlooked. But he wasn’t the kind of person to raise a bedlam in public. He waited for the President to return to the country.

    The stage had been set for more drama. The minister wasn’t alone in his anger. You may want to observe that the statement wasn’t signed by Presidential spokesman, Bayo Onanuga. The reason he didn’t may forever be buried in the vault of secrets at the Presidency.Was the minister right in his indignation? Who are the people advising the President and splashing mud all over his body with their uninformed and sometimes very selfish decisions?The NTA Act is very clear on Membership of the Authority, Tenure of Office, and Removal from Office of Members of the Authority. I will reference only three sections. Section 2 (1) says, The Authority shall consist of the following members to be appointed by the President on the recommendation of the Minister. Under Section 3 (1), Subject to the provisions of this Act, a person appointed to be a member of the Authority, not being a public officer, shall hold office for a period of three years from the date of his appointment and shall be eligible for reappointment for one further period of three years.While my final point here is Section 4 (1), which says, If it appears to the Minister that a member of the Authority should be removed from office on the ground of misconduct or inability to perform the functions of his office, the Minister shall after consultation with the interests, if any, represented by thatmember make a recommendation to that effect to the President, and if the President approves the recommendation, the Minister may declare, in writing, the office of that member vacant.The minister plays a major role in the entire process but none of the above steps was followed.

    There were no complaints about the ability of the management to perform. The act was completely jettisoned for political expediency and advantage. I am sure that those who advised the President on the appointment fiasco told him a single story which was eventually balanced by the minister’s presentation.The President took his decision, a very firm one for that matter.

    It is a pity that some competent innocent men and women got caught in a needless miasma. It has always been my firm belief that the strength of every great person is to admit a failing and be able to take strong corrective measures to right it. The statement released September 2, 2025, by Bayo Onanuga on the President’s action, was very clear.“President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has directed the recall of Mr Salihu Dembos, the Director-General of the Nigerian Television Authority (NTA), who briefly vacated the post following some management changes in the agency.“The President similarly directed the recall of Mr Ayo Adewuyi, the Executive Director of News, to complete his three-year tenure, which ends in 2027.

    Adewuyi was appointed by President Tinubu in 2024,” the statement adds with good measure. This is the way to deal with a situation without sowing seeds of discord.

    Just tame a hydra-headed ignoble behaviour by a few in the team without emotions, and it’s gone forever. Without doubt the NTA needs a platform of peace to reinvent itself and become relevant again. The station which describes itself as the biggest network in Africa lives on glory interred in the past.

    There is nothing wrong with self bravura, but there is everything wrong with rodomontade claims that carry little or no substance. NTA was once the big deal in Nigeria but the coming of private broadcasting in 1992, has nearly obliterated the dependability of a receding broadcast dodo that resisted modern broadcasting both in management style and content production, and even in technology. So, for the recalled directors, this is no moment to enjoy a victory lap but a fresh opportunity to sincerely diagnose the problems of the national broadcaster and rescue it from the cumbersomeness of the civil service strongly embedded in the system.

    There has to be a reason people are not watching NTA. It is not out of unpatriotism or spite for this government. The station shouldn’t present only government bulletins as news without the professional discipline and courage to state the alternative story.NTA needs help urgently. The management should be sincere enough to look at the demands the workers made when they met with the sacked team, and take decisions that may assuage their fears and guarantee a future that comes with hope.

    Tinubu to broadcast to nation today

    President Bola Tinubu is to broadcast to the nation on Sunday.

    This is contained in a statement by Chief Ajuri Ngelale, the Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, on Saturday in Abuja.

    He said that the broadcast was part of activities to mark the 63rd Independence Anniversary of the nation.

    Ngelale said that the broadcast would be by 7:00a.m.

    He urged all television, radio, and other electronic media networks to hook up to the network services of the Nigerian Television Authority and Radio Nigeria for the broadcast.

  • FIFA threatens not to broadcast women’s World Cup in Europe

    FIFA threatens not to broadcast women’s World Cup in Europe

    FIFA has threatened not to broadcast the 2023 women’s World Cup in Australia and New Zealand this summer, to five big European countries due to disagreements on media rights.

    “The offers from broadcasters, mainly in the ‘Big 5’ European countries, are still very disappointing and simply not acceptable,” FIFA president Gianni Infantino said in a statement.

    Infantino didn’t name the countries, but according to dpa information, Germany is among them.

    Germany’s defeat to England at the women’s Euro 2022 final was the most watched programme on German television in 2022, with 17,952 million viewers.

    He said that “should the offers continue not to be fair (towards women and women’s football), we will be forced not to broadcast the FIFA Women’s World Cup into the ‘Big 5′ European countries.”

    FIFA said the viewing figures of the women’s World Cup are 50 to 60 per cent of the men’s tournament, yet the broadcasters’ offers in the major European countries for the women’s event are 20 to 100 per cent lower.

    Infantino added that the time difference between Europe and the two host countries shouldn’t be an excuse.

    “It doesn’t make any economic sense because the viewing figures are there.

    “Maybe, because it is in Australia and New Zealand, it’s not played on prime-time in Europe, but still, it is played at 9am or 10am, so it is quite a reasonable time,” he said.

    Infantino said that FIFA “did our part” by raising the prize money to $152 million, three times the amount paid in 2019 and 10 times more than in 2015.

  • Broadcast fetters and the antics of Multichoice and Star Times, By Okoh Aihe

    Broadcast fetters and the antics of Multichoice and Star Times, By Okoh Aihe

    By Okoh Aihe

    I am sure as the coming of tomorrow that whoever doubted the capacity and intention of the 6th edition of the National Broadcasting Code recently released by the National Broadcasting Commission (NBC), is already convinced beyond all reasonable doubt, as the cliché would canvass, of the strength of that instrument. In so short a time there is a big catch. Obadiah Mailifia, a former presidential candidate, who spoke on the platform provided by Nigeria Info 91.5 FM, is doing the rounds with the security organisations as he was alleged to have breached sections of the Code bothering on Hate Speech. The station is also to face the full weight of the law by coughing out a fine of N5m as against N500, 000 that was the fine for such malfeasance.

    So much fears have been expressed that the Code would constrict opposition and dissenting voices and antagonize free discourse in the public square. The people have a right to their fears and that right should be respected and interrogated for quality action to stem such fears.

    However, I do want to say it is the responsibility of government to keep the people together, to ensure harmonious relationship in the nation state. Quite a number of people who badmouth the government on the new Code may not have read the book by Denise Uwimana, From Red Earth – A Rwandan Story of Healing and Forgiveness. The book paints a harrowing experience in a hellish genocide that claimed about million Tutsi in a hundred days; losing her husband, her loved ones with so many gory details, all because some tribal bigots who felt anointed for leadership were given the deadly latitude of spewing all kinds of scurrilities on radio.

    Even from the opening Chapter, Denise draws an apocalyptic curtain: “We stayed where we were, my mind replaying its despairing reel: I had no way to protect my children from impending peril, nowhere safe for my baby to be born.”

    A few bold voices have asked: How far away are we from the Rwandan situation? Why do some people have to behave without fetters, flaunting ownership and anointed mentality?

    I will be wrong here to assume that the present administration is not troubled by these frustrations, and is not also doing something about it. Part of doing something is that Code. Supposedly to put an end to the invidious danger that uncontrolled speech can cause. But why are the people outraged?

    The simple answer may be that the Code is being pushed by a politician in the person of Alhaji Lai Mohamed, Minister for Information and Culture, instead of the regulator, the NBC. The fault does not lie in Lai. This story may interest you. Long ago, a friend attending the National Association of Broadcasters Conference in Las Vegas (NAB) was very interested in a particular camera lens, and was asking for more details on the product. Somebody standing by him asked a question looking into his eyes: why are you interested in the lens? Are you a politician? Before my friend could respond, the fellow concluded: It is only politicians that will need the lens to double the number of people in their campaign crowd! That was in faraway America. All over the world, politicians, except a few, enjoy very little credibility. Perhaps this is the reason governments create certain parastatals to take charge of some aspects of administration and industry in order to avoid political interference. Except that the air is already fouled up, it may have been better for the regulator, the NBC, to tell their story no matter how unpalatable for the stomach. The regulator should have a head large enough to carry its worries.

    One question troubles me. What is the difference between hate speech and abnegation of responsibilities, leading to wanton killings and near anarchical scenarios inflamed by orchestrated carnage? So, Obadiah is nearly guillotined metaphorically for the things he said that were wrong; pray, who is attending to the truth elements in his presentation? The silence in the land is not a prelude to euphoria but a surreal reality that is extremely foreboding except urgent measures are taken by the authorities.

    Broadcasting has a role to play in putting tempers in check and putting people on a leash. But the sector is hardly at peace. So many issues are cropping up in the Code. The National Assembly has also joined the fray. Last week the upper house frowned at the amorphous and unaccountable relationship between government broadcaster, NTA, and Star Times, and also asked them to suspend a recent increase in subscription. The law makers observed quite rightly that Star Times is not licensed by the NBC. What they may not also know is that even the NTA is not licensed by the NBC. It is an organization above the law, flaunting the kind of ignorance and arrogance that killed NITEL. This may therefore be the reason why NTA is not at the frontline of broadcast development and innovation in the country; the laurels go to the private broadcasters. NTA lives in the past and remains a government bulletin outlet.

    For me the broadcast sector was already too incommodious to accommodate some other developments. But not in our land where things happen in torrents and the bizarre struggles for recognition. In the manner of Star Times, Multichoice, last week announced a price increase on the DSTV platform. Was the announcement wise at this time or is it a marketing strategy or some kind of desperate decision to inflict final pain on the buying public once and for all so that things could be resolved as they rush towards a dénouement? In the message to a subscriber, DSTV wrote: “Dear Customer, please be advised of a price adjustment on your DStv Premium package form 1 September. Your new monthly subscription will be N18, 400.”

    I have tried to confirm this information with the regulator without success, meaning the regulator may not have been notified before the increase was announced. Even if the DStv sector is different from the telecommunications industry where a determination has to be made by the regulator before any price increase, the broadcast regulator must, at least, be notified of developments in the sector to enable it speak with authority. The announcement seems to have come from outer space, without any stakeholder engagement, and with some kind of inexplicable disregard for the customers.

    There has been no proper explanation for this. But an industry source told me that apart from its inability to communicate properly with the relevant stakeholders, DStv is facing very hard times in Nigeria, recording losses in three successive years. Unfortunately, COVID-19 has come as a leveler for businesses, even ruining nations completely. With incapacity to reinvent, the nation’s economy offers little hope and very low resistance to collapsing market structures. Industries are shutting down. Jobs are lost in thousands. The country’s currency, the Naira, is taking a battering in the market, running towards the N500 to One US dollar mark. It is more trouble for the land, more troubles for organisations like DStv that offer luxury items. It is a time for hard choices and DStv has made one, so it seems.

    Unfortunately, figures from the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) are not also very supportive. The economy contracted by 6.1 per cent year on year in Q2’20.The GDP contraction represented the steepest in over three decades…. Sectors with steepest declines include: Transport and Storage (-49.1%), Accommodation and Food Services (-40.2%), Construction (-31.7%), Education (-24%), Real Estate (-22.0%) and Trade (-16.6%).

    The economy was already going downhill before COVID-19 struck. The figures above mean more trouble for the nation. But this is no time to despair or to look out for enemies or dissenting voices. The times call for inclusive thinking, humility and creativity in building a resilient economy with the solid human capital available in our country. The truth is that comfort is not near at the moment. More organisations will exit Nigeria leaving us to either swim out of the situation we find ourselves or sink. The nation has more than is needed to achieve greatness. The major hindrance on our path is our penchant for obsequiousness and incapacity to speak truth to power and situations.

    One last word for Multichoice. About fourteen years ago, at Rhodes University, South Africa, a gentleman made a presentation of a research work that was funded by some South African business operators, to look at South African companies doing business in other African countries. The fellow did a great work but came to a very grim conclusion: A few years down the line South African businesses operating in other African countries will be chased out by their host environments because of their pride.

    That rings a bell in my head always and I have seen this conclusion at work a number of times. This is something for Multichoice Nigeria to ponder over each time it is a taking a far reaching decision.

  • Buhari addresses Nigerians on Friday

    Buhari addresses Nigerians on Friday

    President Muhammadu Buhari will address the nation in a broadcast on Friday, June 12 in commemoration of the nation’s Democracy Day.

    A statement by the Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Mr Femi Adesina, said the broadcast would come up at 7am on the Nigerian Television Authority (NTA) and Radio Nigeria.

    “To commemorate Nigeria’s Democracy Day, President Muhammadu Buhari will broadcast to the nation on Friday, June 12, 2020 at 7am.

    “Television and radio stations, as well as other electronic media outlets, are enjoined to hook up to the network services of the Nigerian Television Authority and Radio Nigeria respectively for the broadcast,” the statement said.

  • La Liga to use “virtual’’ stands and audio for broadcasts

    La Liga will use virtual images of stands in television broadcasts with added “fan audio’’, produced by the makers of the FIFA video game, when it returns to action on Thursday.

    Domestic broadcasters in Spain will offer their viewers the choice of a “natural’’ broadcast of games played behind closed doors with no fans.

    But the international audience will receive only the enhanced broadcasts with added audio and graphics.

    La Liga said in a statement on Sunday that the use of technology “will allow matches to be seen in an attractive way that closely resembles how they looked and sounded before the competition was postponed.”

    The stands will be “virtualised” and will offer to-scale images of seated fans wearing the home club’s colours.

    La Liga collaborated with Norwegian company VIZRT on the technology.

    “In moments when the game is stopped, this image of fans can be transformed into a canvas that matches the colour of the home team and will carry institutional messages among other offerings,” added the league.

    The virtual sound has been developed with video game company EA SPORTS FIFA, in a project called Sounds of the Stands.

    “Through this, the audio library of LaLiga official sponsor EA, which was recorded in real stadiums, has been used and has been digitally adapted so that it can be implemented in real time during the match,” said the statement.

    “It will be adapted to the flow of the game as certain situations occur, such as a goal or a foul, creating what is known as Atmospheric Audio.”

    FC Barcelona lead the table by two points over Real Madrid with 11 rounds of matches left, after the season was paused in March due to the novel coronavirus pandemic.

    The two rivals are braced for one of the tightest title races in recent memory.

    The fight for UEFA Champions League football is even closer, with at least five teams vying for third and fourth place.

    The restart begins with Thursday’s derby between Sevilla and Real Betis, while champions FC Barcelona visit Real Mallorca on Saturday and Real Madrid host Eibar on Sunday.

    “We have made these broadcasting changes so (that) fans can enjoy LaLiga,” said the league’s President Javier Tebas.

    “We work with global partners to offer a great viewer experience. We are in an exceptional situation, but for us it has been important to be able to adapt and offer a compelling, cutting-edge broadcast to our fans,” he added.

  • Ministry opens up on recording phone calls of Nigerians

    The Ministry of Communications and Digital Economy has opened up on a currently circulating broadcast message reportedly authored by the Minister, Isa Pantami that government will soon begin recording phone calls of Nigerians.

    According to the broadcast message circulating especially on WhatsApp, which was also received by our tech editor, all devices are now connected to the Ministry’s systems.

    The broadcast message also insinuated that effective tomorrow, the Ministry will commence the recording of phone calls and the monitoring of all social media platforms and fora.

    The malicious message also further discouraged citizens from sharing any messages or videos with political or religious content, as it is now officially a crime and could even lead to arrest.

    According to a statement by Uwa Suleiman (Mrs), Spokesperson to the Minister of Communications and Digital Economy, the broadcast message is fake news in totality.

    Uwa stated that the Ministry initially ignored the message, which has been in the public domain for some time, so as not to give undue attention to the originators.

    “But its spread, the efforts of well-meaning Nigerians to get clarity and the need to ensure that all Nigerians are properly informed” necessitated clarifications, she stated.

    “We are at a point in our Nation’s history where the focus is on digitalizing the Nigerian Economy for the greater good of all, and divisive messages such as these are mere distractions.

    “It is on record that Dr Pantami, as the then Director General of NITDA, initiated and passed the Nigerian Data Protection Regulation (NDPR January 25th 2019) which solely exists to protect the privacy rights of every individual.

    “The Honourable Minister enjoins all Nigerians, to disregard the propaganda which is aimed at inciting fear, and creating public confusion. Under the leadership of Dr Isa Ali Ibrahim (Pantami), the Federal Ministry of Communications and Digital Economy is mandated to Leverage on Technology for a Digital Economy, and will not engage in acts that would sabotage its mandate.

    “The office of the Honourable Minister, calls on all Nigerians to ignore all and any instructions contained in the message, and further help in tackling this ignoble act by immediately deleting the message to curb its spread,” the statement read.

  • NBC DG, Kawu reinstates commitment to instill sanity in Nigeria's broadcast media space

    The Director General of the National Broadcasting Commission (NBC), Malam Is’haq Modibbo-Kawu on Friday intimated stakeholders on how far the Commission under his leadership has helped sanitized the Nigerian broadcast media space since assuming office in 2016.
    Kawu spoke on Friday in a parley with top media executives (including TheNewsGuru’s publisher, Mideno Bayagbon).
    The DG noted that since taking over the affairs of the commission in 2016, his priority has been ensuring that the Nigerian broadcast media is independent yet accountable for every bit of material/programme transmitted on air.
    Launch of New Broadcasting Code
    The NBC under Karu’s leadership has launched a new edition of the Nigeria Broadcasting Code, the sixth in its series. Kawu on Friday explained that the code was launched last week in Kano.
    According to him, the code has been strengthened to enhance professionalism and development in Nigeria’s broadcast industry.
    TNG reports that Nigeria’s broadcast industry has continued to evolve over the years. But the industry has suffered a few setbacks, which the National Broadcasting Commission is seeking to address through its series of Broadcasting codes.
    The Nigeria broadcasting code was first launched in 1993, to enable broadcast operators to self regulate and ensure the highest form of professionalism in the broadcast industry and has since been reviewed every 5 years.
    According to Karu, the new code has three special features which distinguishes it from previous editions. First; it strengthens the commission to fully curb spread of hate speeches, fake news and other sensitive materials not suitable for public consumption. It also invest in the commission the power to sanction erring broadcast media outfits.
    Secondly, the new code statutorily requires that 70 per cent of broadcast materials be localized.
    For business profitability and growth of the Nigerian Professional League, the new code mandates local investors to consider investment opportunities in local leagues before investing in foreign leagues.
    Digital Switch Over
    Speaking on the progress and challenges so far made on the Digital Switch Over, DSO (a term given to the process of changing from analogue to digital Television broadcasting), Kawu said the implementation of the DSO across the federation dragged much more than expected because of low funding coupled with scarce technical-know-how resources. Hence the decision by the commission to implement in batches starting with a pilot phase in Jos (April, 2016) and Abuja (December, 2016).
    Modbbo-Kawu also said that President Muhammadu Buhari remained fully committed to the DSO project.
    He said that the commission was working on the installation of facilities in Gombe, adding that “our stakeholders are determined to move into the biggest media markets in Lagos, Kano and Port Harcourt in the nearest future”.
    This, he said, was part of a nationwide roll out plan, including a definitive timeline for the switch-off of analogue transmission in Jos, Abuja, Ilorin, Kaduna, Enugu and Oshogbo.
    “A new timetable will be released as soon as it is approved by the board of the commission,’’ the director-general said.
    Sanctions/relationship with licencees
    The DG explained that the commission owe to the nation and her citizens to ensure unbiased and fair reportage of events at all times by all broadcast stations stations in the country, hence, the 24-hour surveillance by the commission on activities of all broadcast stations in the country.
    “We will continue to operate at a professional level; as a lawful regulatory body for broadcasting in Nigeria, we will not stop engaging our licensees.
    “However, we do not relate with the licensees on the basis of their political affiliations or any other subjective platform.
    “We hold our licensees to account only on the basis of their fidelity to the Nigerian Broadcasting Code. We are also opposed to the persistent refusal by many licensees to fulfil their own obligations.
    “There is also a strange sense of entitlement that is expressed through name calling, blackmail and anger,’’ Modibbo-Kawu said.
    “I want to reiterate that there is no licensee that is too big or small to be regulated. We are not, and we will never be, a censorship institution.
    “The NBC Act has not given us such powers and neither did the Nigerian Broadcasting Code.
    “We remain a regulatory agency that is committed to ensuring that the Nigerian broadcasting impacts positively on setting the agenda for the social, cultural, economic, political and technological development of our nation.
    “In doing that, we shall ensure no broadcasting organisation incites, engender public disorder or is generally disrespectful to human dignity.
    “Our regulatory duties is to ensure that broadcasting in Nigeria adheres to the general principles of legality, decency, integrity, truth and respect for human dignity as well as the cultural, moral and social drives of the people,” he said.
