NBC Denies Placing Ban On Musical Videos

The National Broadcast Commission (NBC) has denied banning the broadcast of some musical videos by Nigerian artistes.

Mrs. Maimuna Jimada, the Acting Public Relations Officer of the Commission, told newsmen in Abuja on Monday that the commission was not aware of the ban.

She said; “NBC has not banned any videos as we are not in-charge of placing a ban on music videos.” 

 “ If a music video or audio has content that is not suitable for broadcast we tag these videos and audio as ‘not to be put on air’’.

Also we inform stations across the country not to broadcast them,” 

 Earlier reports named some of the affected artistes as P-square, Wande Coal, Timaya, Flavour, D’prince, Goldie, Chuddy K and Tillaman.

The report said the videos were banned for containing offensive materials.
