The National Broadcasting Commission has fined the Africa Independent Television, Arise and Channels TV, over coverage of the #EndSARS protest.

The commission tagged the coverage of #EndSARS related matters by AIT, ARISE and Channels Tv as “unprofessional coverage”.

NBC Acting Director-General, Prof. Armstrong Idachaba, made this announcement at a press conference in Abuja on Monday, October 26th.

Recall that the commission had earlier warned all broadcasting stations against reporting the #EndSARS protests in a manner that could embarrass the government or private individuals or cause disaffection, incite to panic or rift in the society.
